GATHERINGS EXTRAORDINT.—,
A venerable pair, man and wife, and Wl' itble
respectable people, died lately in Galloway, 014
day of one another, whose effects, if brought ";01010
would furnish matter for one of the most f 4
catalogues that was, perhaps, ever subroitte".oo
auctioneer to the attention of the public. All/c
popular reports abroad on the subject, it is dinioeS
arrive at the exact truth; but as we brie f
some pains to inquire into the facts 1.0/r
case, the following will be found a close tilla
mation : —Deposits of siver coin, secretireopt
places where no one would have ever eefillif
of looking for such articles—one parcel cerer 10
wrapped in a piece of rag, found in a cornn
6000
lumber-drawer, others in paper crammedrest':
basket, or hid in outhouses or some equally ung,oo9
ing corner. These coins appear to have been 3P 1,10
from the light of day for a number of years! fTr SP,
different values they represent, such as ls. I
2s. 6d., and 55., and had become in consegnelniseir
only tarnished, but nearly as black as so% fltiO
There were also gold coins, foreign as well as P. ill
fest
of very small values, up to 51., with a g• f
riety of very different articles, the fancf..°Aiej
parties appearing to have been, to have a 00'-;o9'
of everything. Of these, let the following sPecii tap
suffice :-8 richly-mounted riding-whips; ' 0;1:
broken pieces of linen ; 30 pairs of good sh,,,e'lbs,a
dozen of towels ; about 250 rich-coloured esi":.10; gyi
kerchiefs ; 3 dozen thimbles, of divers
pairs of scissors, and 1 gold pair ditto ;40°410;
'
silk stockings ; 30 gowns, made and unto or
women's bonnets ; a let of shoe-makers spail
threads, with bristles attached; coffin-lacing' of #3
great number of bottles of wine and sPirits .clO
qualities. Part of these were found in an old teAt
supposed to contain nothing but rubbish ; btioged
the assistant to a professional gentleman, ellf,-/it (71/1
inventorying the effects, was directed to threbottles-,
he drew from their hiding-places seventeen
.itpsgSeo
wine and spirits, some of the former oh:7,elts,:ii
But there was an endless array of other njesL inedi
enumeration of which would occupy geoe':s
space, if not exhaust the patience of the ;
reader. The husband, in this case,
