On Wednesday morning, immediately after
the execution of the murderer at Glasgow, the following
circumstance occurred :—A tin box, upwards of four feet
in length, of a coffin shape, was observed floating down the
river, between the Wooden and Old Bridges. In a few
minutes after it was first observed, several thousands as-
sembled on each side of the river, and on the Old Bridge,
anxious to know its contents; but although many a wife,
with her baby in her arm., was demonstrating to her
fellow-spectators that it was another sample of handy-
work of the doctors, yet the generality ventured not to
form an opinion on the subject. On arriving near the
Old Bridge, some boys determined on unfolding the
mystery, and after making their way to the middle of the
river, the tin box, which turned out to be a real coffin,
soldered air-tight, was soon dragged ashore, and the occu-
pant discovered itself in the shape of a Newfoundland
dog, lying on a bed of straw. The first impression
was, that the whole was a hoax got up for the purpose
of making the rabble stare. But no such thing. The
circumstance of the dog's name and age being inscribed
on the coffin lid, and also a moderate-sized loaf depo-
sited inside, plaii.ly showed that the coffining and
interment proceeded from pure respect and affection on the
part of the master towards the departed. We have since
learned that the dog was the property of a shopkeeper ;
that the favourite animal has been pining under disease for
some months past ; and that it was not without regret that
his master consented he should be shot on Monday last.
The interment took place with all due solemnity on Tues-
day morning. The river, in which be had so often exhi-
bited his swimming powers, was chosen as the most appro-
priate place for his grave. His master, after in vain at-
tempting to sink the well-soldered coffin, at last accom-
plished his purpose by fastening a stone to it. The rope,
it seems, had given way about 24 hours afterwards, and
caused the concourse and conjectures which we have just
alluded to.— Gretnech

The brigade then passed in slow and quick time in re-
view order, and after arriving to their original ground,
commenced a number of evolutions and manoeuvres, which
are quite new cavalry movements. They were executed
with great celerity and precision, the wheeling was per-
formed in fine style, and the charges were admirahle. The
brigade, after having executed the whole cf the movements,
wheeled into line, touk open order, and gave the general
salute.

Lord Hill then rode forward, and, addressing Major-Gen.
Sir .Hussey. Vivian, expressed himself highly gratified at
the distinguished manner in which the evolutions were
executed.

Lord Hill, attended by his staff, and a vast number of
General Officers, then left the ground.
There was a strong display of beauty and fashion, both
equestrians and pedestrians.
