WILD SWANS.—Last Thursday afternoon three of
these graceful strangers were seen at the Longman,
near Millburn—their snow• white plumage fluttering
in the wind, as they rose and fell on the chafed waters
of the Moray Frith. A sportsman, who was present,
fired a charge at them, which they shook from their
wings like dew. The v:cient gales of last week
seem to have brought several rare birds to our shores.
Another stormy petrel was found near Raigmore, this
week, by Mr. Naughten, jeweller, who has sent it to
be preserved.—lnucrness Courier.
Early last hunting season, the day had been ex:
ceedingly wet, the Marquis of Waterford stopped at
the Fethard Hotel, to change clothes which had been
left there in the morning, and placed at the fire be-
tween those of two friends of his Lordship's. The
proprietor of the hotel met the Marquis with a me-
lancholy face, and said—" My Lord, a serious acci-
dent has occurred—your Lordship's clothes have been
burned to ashes, and your friends' clothes, that were
on each side, were not even scorched." " Well," said
the Marquis, " the children have not been burned,
nor the house ? " " Ng, my Lord." " Would you
charge them to me if they had ? " " No, my Lord."
"Well, then, neither will]. charge you for the clothes."

PUGILISTIC CONTEST DETIMEN TWO WESTMINSTER
SCHOLARS.--Yesterday a fight took place between
two of the scholars in the enclosed grass-plot behind
the Abbey. One of the combatants was named
Brown, a hardy red-haired boy ; the other was
styled the Somersetshire hero. In appearance each
was about thirteen years of age. During the fourteen
or fifteen first rounds they both exhibited extreme
fistic skill, covered their frontispieces well, stopping
with great precision, and consequently receiving
little or no injuries. Brown, badly advised by his
seconds, who were the biggest youths in the school,
adopted a system of lunging with his right, then
wheeling round and getting away. The Somerset-
shire hero always followed his antagonist, hit at
him with his right, as he retreated, but was gene-
rally short. Brown, about the middle of the fight,
struck the first knock-down blow. Brown was then
advised to try infighting, and did so, but he had the
worst of it. The young second of the Somersetshire
boy advised him to try the upper cut, as his opponent
rushed in with his head down. The advice was
adopted with stinging effect, and the yellow-haired
stripling soon showed symptoms of being "groggy."
He was always ready for the fray, however, when
time was called, but at last, as he was retreating,
" weak upon his pins," his spirited rival rushed after
him, hit him hard on the side of the face, and knocked
him clean down. This blow decided the contest.
Poor Brown was deaf to the call of time, and his
second gave in for him.
PAUPERISM IN SUNDERLAND:7MM is now a
greater number of applicants for relief, and a larger
amount expended for the Sunderland Union, than at
any preceding time. Hundreds of men, but lately in
respectable circumstances, are now compelled to break
stones, that they may receive a small amount of paro-
chial relief. Last week no fewer than 4,500 persons
were allowed out-door relief in this town.---S'under-
