Mr. Wilson, the celebrated Scottish vocalist, the
most popular of living singers at the other side of the
Channel, is, we learn, about to visit Paris, to give a series of
soirees' at which the musical world here will, for the first
time, have an opportunity of hearing the national melodies
of Scotland in perfection. Though an accomplished exe-
critant, Mr. Wilson carefully avoids all the elaborate orna•
meatso f the foreign schools; and hence his singing, like the
flkirnrurns "native.wpod-notes wild" of his immortal countryman

DISEASE AMONG CATTLE.—An inflammatory dis-
ease, generally known by the name of " Black Quarter," has
been making sad havoc of late amongst the young stock of
Mr. George Brass, of Longton Field, near Appleby. During
the last fortnight eight valuable yearly heifers have died
from the effects of it. The animals, on being seized with
the complaint, which attacks them very suddenly, become
listless and stupid, hang down their heads, refuse their food,
and appear to move with great difficulty. Swellings appear
on different parts of the body, which, on being pressed with
the finger, made a crackling noise; and the disease in gene.
ral proves fatal in about ten hours after the first symptoms
have shown themselves.— Carlisle Journal.
A singular railway accident took place a few dais
since at Orton, Westmoreland. ' The tail of a pointer dog,
which was standing upon the railway, was cut Off by a
pain train...Carlisle Journal.
