GREAT MATCH FOR 1000 SOVS. ASIDE.
The Shooting Match between Lord Kennedy and Mr. Osbaldem
tone for the above sum, commenced yesterday at the Red House
loclosnre, Battersea, at 100 birds each. Tie shooting was unusually
good. The match will occupy five days at the same number of
birds per day, with double barrels. In the first 30 Mr. Oshaldom
tone killed 47, and In the second 43—total 90. Lord Kennedy
kilted only 33 out of his hundred, but the deficiency is not to be am
tributed to bad shooting (for his Lordship shot remarkably well),
but to the very great superiority of the birds provided by Qayards
for Mr. Osbaidestone. Had his Lordship been as well birded be
Ivroold not have been behind on the day. Betting was 4 and Ste I
on the gun, and few takers.

This is glorious weather for the hop growers. The
rains will destroy the fiy, and with the fly the hopes of
the gamblers in hops.
It has been calculated, that to count 5,000,000
guineas, at the rate of a guinea every second, and
working twelve hours a day, would employ one person
nearly four months.
We wish to know which is the happiest of two men
equally healthy, equally rich, and of an equal condi-
tion? It is clear that it is their temper which decides
it. The most moderate, the least anxious, and at the
same time the most sensible, is the most happy; but
unfortunately the most sensible is often the least mode.
rate. It is not our condition, it is the temper of our
souls which renders us happy. The disposition of our
soul depends on our organs, and our organs have been
arranged without our having the least part in the
arrangement.— Voltaire.
When the Earl of BRADFORD was brought. before
the Chancellor to beezamined upon application for a
statute of lunacy against him, the Chancellor asked
him, " How many legs has a sheep r Does your
Lordship mean," answered Lord BRooruan, " a live
sheep, or a dead sheep."—" Is it sot the same thing,'
said the Chancellor.—" No, my Lord," said Lord S.
" there is much difference; a live sheep may have
four legs—a dead sheep has only two, the two fore•
legs are shoulders, but there are but two legs of mutton."
when MARMONTEL first arrived in Paris, he was so
poor that be was obliged to go and fill his own pitcher
at the fountain of Saint Severin. " I never pass that
fountain," said he, one day, " without feeling a deliii-
ous emotion. I still fancy myself in that happy age
when gloty, fame, and success, are viewed through the'
prism of hope." There are many literary men of the
present day who may have the same recollections as
MARMONTEL, but to enjoy the distant picture of virtu-
ous indigence, it is necessary to possess, as the autbo;
of the Incas did, an independent fortune.
