EMIGRATION.—At the village of Keyston,
Hunts, which comprises only 200 inhabitants, several of the
most able agricultural labourers, consisting with their families
of thirty individuals, are removing to embark for America.—
Nottingham Review.
The tide of emigration from this neighbour-
hood to the United States has set in very powerfully. Fifteen
families, most of them in independent circumstances, will set
off in a few days, in one body. The fteight from Liverpool
is 21. per head, exclusive of provisions.—Nottingham Review.

GREAT TAKE OF FISH.-011 Thursday
evening last fourteen hundred fresh water fish, of the species
called skellies, were taken in one draught, in the river Eden,
near Grinsdale.—Carlisle Journal.

HANDSOME PRESENT TO THE PACIIA
or Eov PT. —The present Paella is a personage of very liberal
mind, and has sent several men of promising talent to different
places in Europe, where they may acquire the languages, and
be initiated in the improvements, of the respective countries.
A young Persian, of good family, lately residing at Florence at
the Paella's expense, was taken by Mr. H--, an English
gentleman, to a rout given by Mrs. B—, whose three daugh-
ters, from their extreme loveliness, excited a great sensation.
The Persian's noble features and magnificent costume did not
fail to attract the admiration of these young ladies, whose eye
appeared to beam with additional lustre when directed towards
the stranger. On the following morning the Persian paid Mr.
H-- an unusually early visit, requesting him to go at once
to Mrs. B—, and make a proposal for him. " I do not ob-
ject," said Mr. H--, " although it is not customary to make a
proposal in so precipitate a manner ; but, pray, for which
daughter am I to propose ?" " For all three," was the reply.
" I will give a thousand pounds for each of them, and shall
send them, by the very first opportunity, as a present to the
Pacha ; he is a great admirer of tall fine women, as they are
rarely met with among us, and will, without doubt, duly appre-
ciate my handsome present." We could wish that this anec-
dote, for the veracity of which we can vouch, would induce
our fair countrywomen to be a little more guarded in their be-
haviour abroad.—The Town.

One accusation was early made, and to the
last by some maintained, against Mrs. Siddons—that of parsi-
mony. It is of little moment now to discuss the justice of this
charge; but it was at least prudent, if she shared any portion of
those friendly fears that were expressed as to the permanency
of her attractions, that she should husband carefully for her
family the means she was then enabled to command ; and it is
just possible that what began in prudence continued from habit.
At the period we are describing, she was publicly accused
"of lingering behind the rest of the congregation, in the gallery
of St. Martin's Church, to avoid a present of benevolence to the
Westminster Dispensary." Lingering behind! An odd way
this of managing such an affair. Would it not have been much
better to go out first, along with the bulk of the congregation?
By such a contrivance, a person who really wished to save half.
a-crown, might stand a fair chance of doing so without ob.
nervation ; but to be the last, to linger till the churchwarden's
plate was full, and till the holder of the plate had nothing to
do but to note the charitable deeds of the straggling few that
brought up the rear, was surely the only way to invite observa-
tion, and to render as conspicuous as possible the solitary
meanness. Such clumsy detraction, however, did her rising
greatness provoke; and, in all probability, the more general
imputation of covetousness was fastened upon her, not so much
from any real evidence of a sordid disposition, as from the
laudable contrast which her prudence and frugality presented
to the proverbial prodigality of the profession to which she be-
longed.—Annual Biography and Obituary for 1832.

TACTICS OF PETERBOROUGH.-" He SCIlt
at once," says the doctor, " twenty spies forward into the
country from St. Mattheo, knowing the route the enemy must
take; appointing them the places from whence, and the time
when, they should bring in to the General the pretended intel-
ligence. It were too tedious to relate all the several pretences
and directions, though my Lord has them all in writing. The
spies, upon the second day's march of the enemy, were very
successful, and obliged the army to a march in the night. The
Spaniards employed by my Lord informed the Conde de las
Torres of a considerable force that was upon his left, and some-
what before him ; which, as they told him, certainly designed
to take some passes which might prevent his entering upon the
plains which lead to Valencia : and that there were English
troops among them. This the Spanish General thinking im-
possible, the spy offered to give any two or three officers he
pleased to appoint the satisfaction of seeing what he affirmed.
Upon this, two officers in the country habit went along with
him to a place, where, pretending to alight and refresh them.
selves, they were seized by ten English dragoons that were
posted there on purpose, and had marched in the mountains all
night with the spies. The Spaniards thus surprised and seized,
the spy pretended the guard was drunk ; and the officers, seeing
a couple of dragoons lying along in that condition, slipped into
the stable, and took three of the dragoons' horses, with their
accoutrements. This was enough to confirm the intelligence,
and to gain credit to the spy; officers of this country never
failing to magnify their dangers and escapes."---,filiktry Com-
