Monday, Mr. Edward Cos, Commoner of Worcester Col-

nutes, and were rowirb, near the lather, when the current forced
the boat towards the bridge with great violence. Mr. Cox and
his friend jumped into the water, thinking they should easily
save themselves by seizing the posts ; hut unfortunately they
were forced between the piles, and carried into the pool below.

to the opposite bank, where he rained a standing-place, and
thereby esc.
At Montroseaped, on the 14th instant, John Halket, mason, in the

impaired, almost to the last. lie celebrated the anniversary of
St. John along with the brethren 65 times up to last St. John's
Day, without having been absent a single time. The striking
resemblance wbkh be bore to his late Majesty has often been
noticed. He was one of six boys who were publicly whipr, by
order of the Magistrates, for erecting a bonfire upon the Pre-
tender's birth-day, their parents being compelled to lend them
through the streets.—This anecdote he was wont to relate with
great good humour.
At Sorby village, near Wigtown, in Galloway, on Tuesday,
the 18th February, Alex. hliCredie, in the 109th year of •his
age. He was born, to use his own words, "on the 10th day of
winter, auld style, 1714." His father died in his 102 d year, and
a son who accompanied his remains to the grave, is already little
short of three store and ten. lie always retained a fair and up-
right character, and detested a lie. He used to express himself
with great indignation at what he called the " heueks and crooks
o' the law." During his long life be was engaged in may one law
suit, but on that occasion be happened to be the losing party, al-
though, as he said, be considered himself to have had " the best
end o' the string." His countenance glowed with great self-
complacency and satisfaction when recording the manners and
transactions of the olden times. " I ha'e ken'd mony a bargain
made (said he) to the extent o' a hunder pund when the Water
o' Bia&toch rowed atween the twa parties, every ane •tanin' on
his ane side." This be designated a " crying bargain." He
seemed to think that a verbal bargain then was as valid as a bill
or bond is now, although couched in all the'phraseology of the
law. He was most abstemious in his habits, as a proof of which
it may be mentioned that he was only once intoxicated, and that
when a boy leading pests to the " Old Place of Sorby." He re-
Collected when there was not a glass window in the pariah of
Kirkinner, except in Balloon House and the Manse ; and when
there was not a spinning-wheel " between the Brigend o' Dum-
fries and the braes o' Glenap," a distance of 75 miles, the pro-
cess of spinning being then carried on with the spiadk and wheel.
In his younger days, there was not a school in the county, ex-
cept in Wigtown, and that sometimes only in summer ' • but he
seemed to think, that although the people then, if less learned,
were far more pious.

'Ti. worth against all ethers backing,
Who vainly vie with Turmas'. Blacking.
In George • Fields I watch'd the packing
Of hampers fihl'd with Tummies Blacking;
And wish'd (no wonder !) I were snacking
A quart or pint of Tummies Blacking.
But, ish ! poor Poets must be lacking
Such luxuries as Tuaxam's Blacking.
Oft are the fair their Beaux attacking,
Wise will not shine in Town's Blacking.
This to their pride Is truly racking,,
Yet credit brings to Twinges Blacking.
But most refuse to take what's hacking,
So chatm'd are they with Tuanwa's Blacking.
The Sailor, while his vessel's tacking,
Sports a neat shoe with Tuninta's
• The hardy Soldier, bivouacking,
Defies the damp with Tummies Blacking.
And wlien an hostile 'City sacking,
His boot gines bright with Tuasaa's Blacking. •
Far as Japan may he be tracking,
Who helps his way with Tuaxaa's Blacking.
So pliant, soft, and free from cracking,
The leather keeps with Tutuila's Bktcking!
Oh ! 'tis a falsehood huge and whacking
To say a word 'gainst Tr:axles Blacking.
Then haste, I pray, and fear no quacking,
On Boot or Shoe in Tuatara's Blacking;
Wbibt he his labour never slacking
Mikes such INCIaIIIADLE BLACKING.
