EMJLE 11., ROI DES CHIENS.

We have to announce the arrival in this country of an
illustrious personage--his Majesty Emile 11., King of the
Dogs. His Majesty, who is accompanied by his tutor, M.
Wallens, after having received the homage of the principal
cities of Europe, has arrived in London, for the purpose of
procuring the recognition of his title by the British people.
And who and what is Emile 11. ? the reader may demand.
Emile 11. is a shepherd's dog, who by his wonderful
performances in Le Chien des Pyrenees, at the Cirque
Olympique, is Paris, has been drawing crowded houses
for some 50 nights during the last spring, and who, on the clos-
ing of the Cirque Olympique at the commencement of the sum-
mer, was engaged at the Theatre des Varietes, and there, in
the Chien du Contrabandier was the principal support of
the theatre during the greater part of the summer. His
tutor, M. Wallens, has long been celebrated as the most
accomplished instructor of the canine race. Emile 1.,
the predecessor of the present Emile, was one
of the most wonderful of European dogs, but
Emile 11. surpasses him in docility and accomplishments.
We have had the pleasure of seeing Emile 11., and certainly
he is the most talented of artists. The converse of the mot
of Talleyrand, with regard to the elder branch of the
Bourbons, may be applied to Emile. "II a tout appris mais
it n'a rien oublie." No need of any prompter with
Emile. He knows his part perfectly, and he thoroughly
enters into the spirit of it. He has studied it—he has
reasoned on it —he shows his thoughts and his
actions, and the expressions of his features—he is a
perfect master of pantomime. He does all but speak ; but,
though he cannot speak, he can read and write, and play at
cards, and lay out a table more adroitly than any waiter.
In fact, the difficulty is to say what Emile cannot do. These
are accomplishments which cannot fail to gain fur Emile the
favour of the public; but Emile has higher claims on our
gratitude, he has more than once saved human life, and, in
1835, the Belgian Government. rewarded with a medal of
honour his instructor, M. Wallens, for having, by the aid of
Emile, saved the life of a person who had fallen into the
river Escaut, at Ghent. Like all true geniuses, Emile is the
most modest and kind-hearted of mortals—to the learning of
the sage, he adds the simplicity and playfulness of the in-
fant. The petted of society, he is not its spoiled child; for,
whatever may have been the case in by-gone years. Emile
has not now the remotest approach to puppyism about him.
He is, indeed, Le Roi des Chien.

The success which has attended Lieutenant Wag-
horn's first attempt to fooevard the Indian mail rid Trieste
must be gratifying to all admirers of enterprise. Even sup-
posing France to be the more natural route, it is obvious that
untoward circumstances might arise which would at once
cut off our overland communication with India unless the
practicability of as speedy a transit through Germany were
demonstrated. A spirit less bold or indefatigable would
have been content with being the first to discover one over-
land route; it is the singular fortune, if it be fair to apply
the term in such a case, of Lieutenant Waghorn to have
shown the feasibility of two. We are new so accustomed to
receive our letters twice a month from India, that we are
apt to forget the time when the scheme for an over-
land mail vid Marseilles was laughed to scorn. The
thing was a chimera, it could never succeed ; but it
did succeed ; and the mockers were silenced, just
as a fortnight since the failure of the attempt Lid Trieste was
confidently predicted by some who are now ready to cry out,
We always said so." For our own part, we confess that we
entertain doubts whether the Trieste route will be always so
sure, even though it should be occasionally speedier than that
vid Marseilles. In winter time it will be no easy matter to
convey a heavy mail of many boxes over the passes of the
Tyrol, and a tall of snow may cause several days' delay.
But as to the courage and capacity which Lieutenant Wag-
horn has displayed there can only be one opinion. He has a
claim on the gratitude of all who are interested in India • and
we only hope that the thousands who have benefited bly his
persevering labours will not forget that a testimonial is now
being set on foot in acknowledgment of his =Wait services.

FATAL AFFBAIN—KINGWOOD, N0v.5.-011 Satur-
day last a quarrel took plate between some parties assembled at the
Victoria beer.house, kept by George lies, in this village, which
resulted in the death of a man named James Brain. An inquest
has been held upon the body, at which it appeared that on the
above.mentiened night the members of a friendly society, or
benefit club, met to transact business. A portion of them wished
to remove the society to another house, which gave rise to a
quarrel. In the scuffle a man named Henry Bryant caught up
the box containing the payments of the members, and was about
going down stairs with it, when the deceased man, Brain, kicked
him. Bryant, thereupon, pulled Brain by the legs, and pre.
tipitated him headlong down stairs, causing injuries, from the
effects of which he died in about four hours afterwards. Bryant
his been committed upon the coroner's warrant to Gloucester gaol
to take his trial for the offence.
