RAPID SPEAKING.—During a recent trial
of much interest, before the Supreme Court at Bombay,
the Chief Justice is said to hive " summed up the case in
language so rapid, that the reporters could neither follow
nor understand him." It is not stated whether the Jury
were in the same predicament.
CHOCOLATE AND COFFEE.--An advertise-
ni:?nt in the Public Advertiser, from Tuesday, June 16,
to Tuesday, June 23, 1657, informs us that " in Bishops-
gate-street, in Queen's Head-alley, at a Frenchman's
house, is an excellent West India drink called chocolate to
he sold, where you may have it ready at any time, and also
unmade, at reasonable 'ates." In a number of the Public
Advertiser, for May 25, 1657, is the following :—" Io
Bartholornew.lane, at the back of the Old Exchange, the
drink called coffee may be had, to be sold in the morning,
and at three of the clock in the afternoon."

TORY PERSECUTION.—
,A physician of
great skill, and of considerable eminence in his profession,
feeling himself obliged, by a sense of public daffy, to vote
in favour of the Liberal candidates at the Late Ripon elec-
tion, has sustained so heavy a loss of professional patronage
in the Tory party as to reduce him to the necessity of leav-
ing the town, and, after due deliberation, he has resolved
to emigrate to Canada, with his wife and seven children !
This is a fact which calls tor no comment.—Leeds Mer-
cury.

CATCHING A TARTAR.—The following
very singular event occurred in the town of Madison, in
this county, about three weeks since. Mr. 13Ex.ramix
SmiTit had a place on his farm where he baited foxes, for
the purpose of shooting them. One morning, soon after
day-break, he stet ted for the place for this purpose, when,
on reaching his covert or bough house, he discovered a
large animal near the fox bait. He took it at first for a
large dog belonging to one of his neighbours, but a shift
of position by the animal satisfied him at once that it was
not a dog, but an enormous black wolf, whereupon he dis-
charged his gun at him, which was loaded with large shot.
Immediately the wolf fell, as if dead, which Mr. SMITH
supposed to he the case, and, laying down his gun, ad-
vanced towards him. When he had approached within
10 or 15 feet of him, the wolf rose and sprang upon him,
seizing him by the leg near the ankle. Immediately a sort
of " rough and tumble" struggle commenced, each striving
to get the other under, the wolf all the while retaining
his grip upon Mr. Small's leg. At length Mr. SMITH
succeeded in throwing the tsolf upon his side, and, holding
him in this position with one hand and his knee, he got j
out his a
jack-knife which he fortunately had with him, and
plunged it into the throat of his ferocious assailant, who
continued his hold uron Mr. SMITH'S leg, biting and
growling until he bled to death. Mr. S. received but very
i
little injury n the conflict, his thick boot protecting his
leg from the teeth of the wolf, who was only able just to
scratch the skin a little. The wolf was full grown, and
very large, measuring nearly five feet from snout to tail.
