he.fqund, during a. two years' residence in Edinburgh,.
'about seven or eight andtiventY Years ago, that many
at the College'of that City `tired no better and thought
it no hardship! He can speak from..his.own obseiva-
tion. (having- boarded iand lodged in the same house
in the. old College-wind with several of those.
Stu-
dents),
.that their board; washing, and lodging, -did
not exceed ss. a week, in'eluding Adtfiring;--theit
eating not 3s.—Tea or coffee was neier • introduco
among. them but on a Sunday afternoon perhaps,
when-they met with lthlicious formality. Their daily
round of meals was—oatmeal porridge for•breakfist‘
potatoes or barley sou? for dinner, and cettntial
porgy
.ridge again at supper. A meal of this porridge did
not cost lid. They cooked it fur them-elves, mereit
by placing an earthen pipkin with a little water over
A slow fire, and sprinkling in about apint of oatmeal,
which, swelling with beat, absorbs the water, and
settles into a jelly when cool again. This, with about
half a pint of milk poered over it, formed the break-
' fast.; and a repetition of the like the supper; their
dinner -cost but very little more. By this.,mode of
living, every Officer who has known t...e habits of old
Scottish Regiments, can bear witness, that their Gel.
. rfadiers usually saved money out of 6d. per day. In
comparison with the Poor:in. Scotland, our poorest
English are most improvident. But the distress now
felt by both Scottish and English Menufact..ters,
greatly heightened by their recollection of better
times. In their protperity they fared .sumptuously.
The poor in great cities live in a perpetual vicissitude
of feasting and fasting. In no country, perhaps, but
England do men pride themselves on what they eat.
This affectation furnishes the chief matter iof convex:.
sation in many English companies ; where the false
consequence assumed on it,.is often truty.langhtsble.

• Saturday night, about seven o'clock, as the Hitchin
stage was going
.along near the Red Cap, at Hollo-
way, A. March, a passenger on the coach, fell from
the roof into the-road, and was killed instantly. The
deceased was in' a state ofintozication at the time of
the accident.
The same evening, J. Kingham, the driver of a
Reading stage, on its way to town, fell from his box
I into the road,' and the. wheel passed over his body,
and killed him. The deceased was perfealy sober
at the time, and -is supposed to have been attacked
with a fit of apopkzy. The horses, being at liberty,
set off at fUll gallop, but were stopped by. running
against a waggon, loaded with hay, and the passen-
gers sustained no injury. The accident happened be-
tween. Colebrook and Longford.
