VARIETIES.

THE QUAKER AND THE OFFICER.—Mr. Gurney (Mrs.
Fry's father) was a strict preserver of his game. Upon
one occasion, when walking in his park, he heard a shot
fired in a neighbouring wood ; he hurried to the spot, and
his naturally placid temper was considerably ruffled on
seeing a young officer, with a pheasant at his feet, delibe-
rately reloading his gun. As the young man, however,
replied to his rather warm expressions by a polite apology
Mr. Gurney's warmth was somewhat allayed ; but he
could not refrain from asking the intruder what he would
do if he caught a man trespassing on his premises ? " I
would ask him to luncheon," was the reply. The serenity
of this impudence was not to be resisted.—Menzoirs of
Sir 7'. F. Buxton.

THE DIVINING-ROD.—Mr. J. Daltamie writes as fol-
lows in the Mining Journal, of Saturday, under date
"Scotland, May 16. I remember being in company some
years ago with two professed dowsers'. I candidly told
them that I had no confidence whatever that lodes could
be discovered with any such a despicable instrument as
the ' dowsing rod.' This avowal was met with a positive
affirmation that they could discover lodes with positive
certainty. The result of our disputations was a dowsing
excursion. accompanied by two miners with picks and
shovels; and the dowsers, being furnished with rods, went
forth majestically, but slowly, with rods erect, until they
came to a point where the rods bent towards the earth.
The operators then exclaimed, We will soon convince
you that dowsing is not a delusion, but a reality.' The
miners were set to work to sink a pit, and soon laid bare
the back of a large lode ; and, even after this demonstra-
tion, I argued on, in doubtful disputation, against placing
any reliance in the dowsing-rod as an indicant for the dis-
covery of lodes. This experiment had the effect of awa-
kening my curiosity to practise with the rod myself ; and
I assure you that I have discovered veins, with the rod,
that have yielded many thousand pounds worth of mine-
ral. lam satisfied in my own mind that the rod may be
relied upon ; though by what laws of nature may still re-
main problematical and incomprehensible."
A HUNT IN THUNDER.—I resolved to make for home,
as the darkening sky and distant thunder to the southward
threatened a heavy storm. 1 had not long, however, de-
termined on returning when the wind, which had been
out of the north, suddenly veered round, and blew hard
from the south. In less than half-an-hour the rain
descended in torrents, the wind blew extremely cold, and
the rain beat right in my face. The peals of thunder
were most appalling, the most fearful, I think, I ever
heard ; the forked lightning dancing above and around
me with such vividness as to pain my eyes : I thought
every moment would be my last. We were entering a
thicket of thorny bushes, when a very large gray-looking
antelope stood up under one of them. I could not see his
head, but I at once knew that it was the long-sought-for
roan antelope, or bastard gemsbok. The noble buck now
bounded forth, a superb old male, carryings pair of grand
scymitar-shaped horns. He stood nearly five feet high
at the shoulder. " The Cow" knew well what he had to
do, and set off after him with right good will over a most
impracticable country. It was a succession of masses of
adamantine rock and stone, and dense bushes, with thorns
on the boat-hook principle. In a few minutes my legs
below the knee were a mass of blood, and my shirt, my
only covering, was flying in streamers from my waist.
The old buck at first got a little a-head, but, presently,
the ground improving, I gained upon him, and, after a
sharp burs,4 of about two miles, we commenced ascending
a slight acclivity, when he suddenly faced about and stood
at bay, eyeing me with glowing eyes and a look of defiance.
This was to me a joyful moment. The buck I had for
many years heard of and longed to meet now stood at bay
within forty yards of me. I dismounted, and, drawing
my rifle from its holster, sent a bullet through his shoul-
der, upon which he cantered a short distance and lay down
in a bush. On my approach he endeavoured to charge, but
his strength failed him. I then gave him a shot in the
neck, just where I always cut off the head. On receiving
it he rolled over, and, stretching his limbs, closed his eyes
on the storm, which all this time raged with increasing
severity.—A Hunter's Life in South Africa.
SHAKSPEARE'S CLASSICAL ATTAINMENTS.—BeII Jon-
son, who was a learned man, with a sufficient contempt
(after the manner of collegians in general) for all who
cannot boast of academic honours, happened to say of
Shakspeare, his contemporary, familiar associate, and ta-
vern companion, that he had " small Latin and less
Greek." In due time this was aggravated into " very
little Latin and no Greek." And so the tale came down
to later times, assisted by Milton, who spoke of Shak-
speare as " fancy's child, warbling his native wood-notes
wild." This, the advocates of Shaksneare's want of
learning, by a happy latitude of reasoning, declared was
strongcorroborative evidence that his scholarship extended
not beyond his own language. Dr. Farmer, in 1767, was
supposed to have clenched the question for ever by his
well-known " Essay," which competent authority pro-
nounced, ex cathedra, to be "unanswerable," and thence.
forth it became incorporated with all the variorum edi-
tions, as an indispensable illustration. 89 it was decreed
that Shakspeare knew not even the rudiments of any lan-
guage but English ; that all his multiplied allusions to
the ancient classics, with speeches almost verbatim from
Plutarch and others, were drawn from English transla-
tions; and that the Latin, French, Italian, and even Spa-
nish sentences and phrases, scattered through his plays,
had got in some how or other, nobody could tell how,
why, or wherefore, except that it was quite certain he
wrote them not, because he was •quite incapable of so do-
ing from utter ignorance. But as people began to direct
more attention to Shakspeare, and look closely into his
works, they also discovered that a vast proportion of the
critical learning of the last age was flimsy and superficial ;
that of the two deductions stated above, the latter was
ridiculous, if not impossible, and that Shakspeare, al-
though not a profound scholar, like Jonson, had never-
theless, a goodly smattering of the humanities ; and that
his " little Latin and less Greek," lightly prized and
lightly spoken of by his erudite associate and rival poet,
had, nevertheless, carried him some way on the road to
learning, and a tolerable distance from the starting post
of ignorance. There are not many students of Shakspeare
in the present age who wilt be inclined to follow the opi-
nion, that Dr. Farmer's Essay is unanswerable. There
can be no doubt, says he, that Shakspeare used transla-
tions freely, which were ready to his hand. We can easily
believe he did. In the beginning of his career he wrote
for bread rather than for fame, and was obliged to work
quickly to answer to current demand, as his reputation
rose and the attraction of his plays increased. His me-
mory was most retentive, and he naturally supplied it
from the readiest and the easiest sources ; but he could
not copy from translations which were not in existence
when lie wrote.—/Milin L'nfiersity Magazine.

A NEAR AND FRIENDLY NEIGIIEGUR.--=My nearest
neighbour dwelt at the station called Wambo, on a creek
ten or twelve miles down the river; I could, therefore,
have no society, even if he had been inclined to be social.
But the fact was, that, like most other squatters, though
at such a distance from him, he thought I had encroached
on his run by coming so near. This, of course, I,d to a
rupture, and finally to adjustment of our differences by
the Commissioners of Crown Lands.—Excursions in
New South Wales.

SIR HENRY BULWER IN NEW YORK.-At the celebra-
tion of the Ancient Society of St: George, in New York,
the chief speaker was her Majesty's minister, Sir Henry
Bulwer. Sir Henry was most successful in a sketch of the
national character of his countrymen:—" John Bull is a
very queer individual to understand—variable as his own
climate, stiff and reserved to foreigners—shy and distrust.
ful even to himself : nobody can understand him but those
v who speak hi , n language. An American friend, who
came from Eu pe the other day, said to me, ' John Bull
is a downrigh i an'.' This gentleman described the whole
English character at one stroke. Now, :J thi-ok there may
be smarter men than John Bull. His motto is, ' Hand.
some is that handsome does ;' but he never promises what
he does not perform. I am the last man in the world to
say there are not faster men than John Bull, but every
one who knows him even by sight, knows what he lacks
in speed he makes up in bottom. (Cheers and laughter.)
If you want to try his qualities you must try him in a long
race. Of course he desires not to be slow, but he is
anxious to be sure. He desires to 'go a head,' as we all
do, but not to go head-over-heels. (Laughter.) • Others
have surpassed him in measuring the mountains of the
moon, and building machines to ride in the air : he is not
so high-soaring : he will tell you that the-first honours of
the world are the railroad and the steam-boat. There is
downright solidity in what he does, and steadiness in all
his movements : in fact, he is the type of the downright.
When he holds out his hand, whether open or shut, he
does it in such a downright way that you say, ' That's the
man I want for a friend ; the man '1 would have for an
honest enemy." (Cheers.) _ _ . ... _

A MILLIONAIRE'S DINNER.—Baron Rothschild re-
cently gave a select dinner in honour of Narvaez. There
were but twenty-eight guests, but these were of the very
flower of aristocracy, picked for the occasion. A Paris
writer says, "This time the most ostentatious luxury was
displayed, and one of the guests, the wife of an ambassa-
dor, told me herself that when they seated themselves at
table they were frightened at the magnificence set out
before them :it was something almost incredible. In
the first place there was the splendid -service of Sevres
porcelaine, which belonged to the unfortunate Marie
Antoinette, which was bought by Rothschild for 150,000
francs. Besides this enormous price he still pays an
annuity of /0,000 francs to the person who consented to
give it up to him. During the repast the whole service
of the table was changed four times, the last being of
silver and gold, worked by the most celebrated artists of
Europe. It was almost impossible to tell by what end,
by what side to take hold of the things, the use of which
almost disappeared beneath the material and the work-
manship, both so precious as to make of most ordinary
articles veritable works of art. The knives, for instance,
were so ornamented, so carved that it was quite difficult
to handle them. All these riches were sent off to Lon-
don the day after the revolution of February, and were
the wonder of the nobility of England when displayed al
a grand dinner given to the Duke of Wellington. As to
the eatables of the dinner I am describing, they con-
sisted, says a reporter, of all the impossibilities of the
season, sought out from the most celebrated hothouses,
and hunted from the most noted hunting-grounds in
France. Peaches, cherries, and strawberries appeared in
the greatest abundance at the dessert, by the side of pine
apples, which, says the same reporter, blushed at having
cost only one hundred francs a-piece. Besides these were
various rare fruits from tropical climates,—in short, the
luxury was of the most unheard-of-character, and the
guests did not rise from table until after ten o'clock."

- MORE AMERICAN BOMBAST.—The following extract,
from the New York Herald of the 10th instant, may
probably amuse our readers; who will, doubtless, recol-
lect that the Herald lately favoured us with the news that
a great number of red republicans and others from the
United States were to revolutionise England during the
Great Exhibition :—" As soon as the news and the New
York Herald reached London, it appears to have excited
extraordinary apprehensions. The prime minister sent
off a note instanter for the Duke of Wellington—the
ministers tendered their resignations—Lord Stanley tried
to form a new government in vain, and the politicians, so
conservative, so grave, so self-confident in the yeomanry
and in the business population, did not dare to venture
even on a general election, to form a new and reliable
government. England trembles from top to toe, and
even the Queen, who has considerable nerve, was so
much frightened, that Prince Albert regretted that an
American newspaper, containing such alarming sugges-
tions, should have reached the shores of ' happy Albion.'
Apprehensions of this character soon begat worse fears,
and with the speed which an emergency only can create,
thirty thousand brilliant bayonets bristled in the neigh-
bourhood of Hyde-park ; besides we know not how many
park's of artillery were ready at a moment's call. In the
meantime, to fill up the space between the hour of alarm
and the probable waste of a good deal of villainous salt-
petre,' the English press brought its batteries to bear on
the New York Herald, abusing it in the most magnifi.
cent language. The Times, the thunderer among the
small artillery, treated the menacing intelligence with a
terrible anxiety to be cool, and devoted its serried columns,
day after day, to explanations, affecting to laugh, and ap-
pearing very much like a traveller in some great, dark
forest, whistling to keep his courage up, while looking
backward and forward to see some frightful spectre at
every turn. These things are very amusing in one point
of view, but trifles, in such cases, have a more important
significance than even great actions or great events.
There is something weak and feeble in the government of
England, or never could such alarm be raised by a few
paragraphs in an American newspaper."
CANADIAN PACING HORSES.—OD starting with our
new team of horses, my attention was arrested by the
peculiar goit of the off leader. It slipped and waddled
along, alternately lifting and resting upon the fore and
hind feet of the same side, a pace I had never seen before.
It proved to he a Canadian horse, trained, as they fre-
quently are in that province, to this peculiar pace. It is
a sort of shuffling, awkward-looking gait, but is very easy
for riding. It is said that a person may ride a whole day
at this pace without any fatigue. I hoped to have been
able. during my subsequent visit to Canada, to make a
trial of this alleged easiness to the rider, but the oppor-
tunity did not fall in my way. Horses so trained are
known as pacing horses, and the practice has probably
been introduced by the French settlers. I have never
myself seen it in France, and should suppose it to be an
uncommon pace even there, and that it has most likely
been introduced from the shores of the Mediterranean.
I find a notice of it in a work upon Sardinia, lately pub-
lished by Mr. Warre Tyndale. " Much attention," he
says, "is paid to giving the better class of horse a peculiar
step, called portante, for which we have neither a corres-
ponding word or pace, being something between an amble
and a trot, and taught in the following manner :—The
fore and hind legs are attached to each other by two cords,
supported by others fastened to the saddle so as to prevent
their dragging on to the ground ; and, thus fettered, the
horse is put in action, the trainer pulling the right and
left side of the bit, alternately, and giving a corresponding
pressure with his leg, which forces the animal to move
either the two off or the two near legs simultaneously,
producing thereby an easy glissade step. It has been
compared to the Turkish amble; but, judging from per.
sonal experience, it is as dissimilar as it is to our cavalry
or farmer's trot. The movement is delightfully easy,
especially easy where one has to be on horseback for many
consecutive hours; and, as Cetti says, II viaggiare in
Sardegna e perch's) la piu dolce cosa del monde : l'anti-
pongo all' andare in barca col vento in poppa.' The
travelling in Sardinia is, on this account, the most
agreeable thing in the world ; I prefer it to going in a
boat with the wind astern." I do not know how the
training is effected in Canada, but it is very interesting
to find this pace prevailing in two countries so removed
from each other. May it not have been introduced into
Canada by some of the Romish clergy from the islands or
borders of the Mediterranean ?—Johnston's Notes on
North America.

SiR
ROBERT WALPOLE, father of Horace, was much
vilified during his life, and for nearly a century after mis-
represented and misunderstood. To him, as in the case of
greater men, including one of the greatest of all, Crom-
well, posterity is at length rendering tardy justice. Sir
Robert was a true Englishman, who loved his country,
and served two monarchs faithfully for many years. His
opponent, the plain-spoken Shippen, said of him,—" Ro-
bert and I are honest men ; he is for King George and I
for King James ; but as for those fellows with long cra-
vats (Sandys, Sir John Rushout, and others), they only
desire places under one king or the other." Often sus-
pected as a corruptionist and time-server, an embezzler of
public money and self-aggrandiser, it now appears that all
these accusations were the mere outpourings of party gall,
which fell to the ground when brought to the test of in-
quiry. Time, the purifier, exhibits the character freed
from the dross and alloy which has been unjustly mixed
up with it. A strenous advocate of peace and opposer of
expensive wars, he held his steady course, relying on his
own resources, and surrounded generally by colleagues of
third-rate talent, and less than fourth-rate integrity ;
men ready to be bought and sold according to the amount
of the purchase-money. As minister of two weak, capri-
cious, self-willed monarchs, who knew nothing of Eng-
land, could scarcely speak her language, and neither un-
derstood nor valued her institutions, he maintained his
post, and upheld the national honour, despite the efforts
of parliamentary opposition and camarilla conspiracies.
When at length uprooted by the force of a long-organising
cabal, he gave way before the storm, and presented him-
self to tender his resignation to his sovereign, , that aged
master, instead of holding out his hand to be kissedin the
cold ceremonial of etiquette, for once gave way to natural
feeling, and flung himself upon the neck of his faithful
servant, embracing him in an agony of tears. One of the
vulgar arguments against Sir Robert Walpole's integrity
has been constantly repeated, and rests on words put into
his mouth which he never used. " All men have their
price," including of course himself, is said to have been
his publicly-declared opinion of public virtue. But henever said anything so universally comprehensive.
Isis
sentence was, "All those men have their price." The in-
sertion or omission of a single word makes all the differ-
ence.. By those men (many of whom in the sequel justi-
fied his observation), he meant the loud-tongued orators
who were as numerous in his day as ours, raving of their
country's wrongs, threatening hourly impeachment of
every measure and every ministry, opposing everything
they did not suggest themselves, until they bullied their
way by sheer dint of mouth into some comfortable sine-
cure, and then suddenly became as quiescent as the ocean
after a tempest. Your demagogue of 1840-511, is lineally
descended from his ancestor of 1730-40, with all the fa..
mil)! features clearly identified, each being a true type of
the genus which Pope characterises in the line.

of faith from the distinguished converts staggers even the

homage to this silly imposture."

large size, the Harbinger, intended to be placed on the
line between London, Plymouth, and the Cape, was
launched on Thursday in the Thames. The Harbinger
was originally her Majesty's sloop Recruit, but she has
been almost entirely reconstructed by Mr. Mare, the
eminelit builder of Bleckwall. Her route will probably
extend as far as Australia, and she will carry the mails.
passengers, and cargo. Her dimensions are 190 feet
between the ferpendiculars. extreme breadth 31 feet,
depth 20 feet,.and burthen 920.

CAPTAIN SOMERSET, OPTHE COLDSTREAM GUARDS.—
This gentleman, who has obtained for himself a most
unfortunate degree of notoriety, is nephew to Lord Fitz-
roy Somerset, the military secretary to the Commander-
in-Chief, and cousin to the Duke of Beaufort. His father,
Lord Charles Somerset, now deceased, was for many years
governor at the Cape of Good Hope. His wife was
daughter to the celebrated John Mytton, Esq., of sporting
celebrity.

WEALTHY PAUPERS.—Two female paupers, a mother
and daughter, aged respectively 80 and 50, who had re-
ceived out-door relief from the parish of Chatton, in
Northumberland, for upwards of 30 years, were lately
found to have in their possession notes and cash to the
amount of £125 17s. Old. On searching their chests they
were found to possess no less a quantity than 362 raps, 39
handkerchiefs, 32 pockets, 37 aprons, 32 shifts, 12 bed-
gowns, 13 gowns, 6 petticoats, 5 shawls, &c.
REMARKABLE BIRD-NEST.--A water-wagtail built its
nest this spring in a chink of the outer wall of the saw-
mill, at Carron village. The large water-wheel is conti-
nually revolving during the day, within four inches of the
nest in which the parent bird sat with the most perfelt
unconcern, the " dizzying millwheel" having, to all ap-
pearance, no effect upon its little brain. More curious
still, owing to the close proximity of the wall and the
wheel, the bird could not fly betwixt them, and actually,
on entering or leaving her nest, flew right through between
the revolving spokes, at whatever rate the huge circle was
revolving.—Dumfries Courier.

A VERY PROPER EXAMPLE.—We find, in the report of
the proceedings at the Surrey sessions, on Thursday, that
a young man, named James Crawford, who is stated to
be well connected, was indicted for removing and throw-
ing away two danger-signals attached to the tail of the
train on the Epsom line, on the night of the Oaks. It
appears that the prisoner was in the open carriage to
which the lamps were attached, and that he put his hand
over the carriage and detached the lamps, and threw one
down an embankment, and the other over the parapet
near the Greenwich Junction. The prisoner pleaded
guilty, and the bench sentenced him to nine months' im-
prisonment to the Brixton House of Correction, with
hard labour.

THE GOLD-DUST ROBBERY.—W. Pamplin, the person
charged with being concerned in the gold dust robbery on
the South 'Western Railway, was again brought up before
the Winchester magistrates on Friday for re-examination,
and after hearing the evidence of Mr. Eldred, a coffee-
house keeper at Shoreditch, who declared his belief that
the prisoner was the man who arrived at his house the
morning after the robbery with two heavy packages, and
a cabman, who likewise stated his belief that the prisoner
was the man whom he had taken to the Shoreditch coffee-
house from the Waterloo Station the morning after the
robbery, the prisoner was fully committed for trial.
SWALLOWS AND THEIR YOUNG.—On Saturday last, a
swallow's nest, containing four young ones, was found in
a coal waggon, which was brought from Coundon colliery
to the West Dock at Hartlepool. The pit at Coundon, it
appears, has not been worked for a short time, and, of
course, the waggons have been unused; but during the
interim, the swallows had been most active, for they had
built their nest in a corner of the waggon, laid their eggs,
hatched them, and the young ones were nearly feathered
by the time the coals arrived at West Hartlepool for ship-
ment. The old birds followed the train, a distance of
about 30 miles by railway, and fed their young during the
journey. On their arrival at the dock, the nest was re-
moved to a place of safety, the old birds following, where,
we trust, the young ones will remain unmolested until
they can take care of themselves.—Durham Chronicle.

SINGULAR ANNOUNCEMENT.—A London paper relates
the following :—" A few days ago the inhabitants of one
of the principal cities in the west of England were filled
with conjecture at the following notice, painted in large
capitals, on the front of a house recently fitted up and
repaired Mrs. M—, from London, deals in all sorts
of ladies.' All was consternation. Tnquiry was instantly
set on foot as to what this Mrs. M— might be. No one
could tell: she was a stranger, from London. Great
anxiety prevailed as to this proclamation of the new esta-
blishment. For two whole days all was surprise and
consultation. On the third morning, behold, the mystery
was unravelled. The house-painter, who had, it seems,
been suddenly attacked by a severe fit of the gout, re-
turned to finish his work, and concluded by adding—' and
gentlemen's wearing apparel.' "
A NEW WAY TO OBTAIN A SUIT OF CLOTHES.—A re-
markable instance of roguery occurred at Bridgetown on
Saturday last. An apparently decent boy ran into the
house of a respectable family and informed the guid wife
that he bad just come from the place where her husband
wrought, to get some fresh clothes for him, as he had fallen
into a large water-box, and bad been drenched to the skin.
The poor woman, who had been foreboding some evil,
having had a bad dream the night previous, without
eoubting the honesty of the pretended messenger, flew to
her drawers, and took out a variety of Sunday apparel, in-
cluding a pair of new trousers, black cloth vest, linen
shirt, silk cravat, &c., all of which she tied up in a hand-
kerchief and despatched with the boy, enjoining him to
tarry on the road. He accordingly disappeared, and no
more was known of the occurrence till the evening, when
the safe arrival of the husband, and his ignorance of any
of the circumstances narrated, aroused his partner to a
sense of the imposition practised on her.—Glasg.Courier.
THE EPSOM BETTING RING.—The man, who looks like
a coffee-shop waiter, out for the day, is Davis, the " Le-
viathan book-maker." He'll lay odds against anything,
and to any amount. Observe the coolness with which he
pockets a bundle of notes, and walks off, roaring out, " 11l
lay against Prime Minister." A very few years since, he
was a journeyman in Cubitt's workshop, but having a
clear bead, and most extraordinary luck, he has risen to
his present position, and is looked upon, by the betting
men, as "safe as the Bank of England." He has paid
£20,000 in notes on a settling day at Newmarket, losses
upon one day's racing, and laughed the while. At the
last Chester races, he laid £50,000 to £250 azainst Black
Doctor winning the Cup and the Derby. The horse ran
second for the Cup, thus giving him a very narrow squeak.
He knows no more about a horse, than a lamp-post, and
cares as little. He lays the odds all round, and will take
half-a-sovereign from a butcher-boy, or a thousand from
a duke with the same indifference.—Correspondent of
Gloucester Journal.

THE ARCIIC EXPEDITION.—The Prince Albert, again
despatched by the heroic Lady Franklin from Aberdeen,
in search of Sir John Franklin, who has now been absent
six years, to proceed direct to Griffith's Island, which is
the appointed rendezvous, and the place where Captain
Austin is likely to have deposited any important informa-
tion of which he may be possessed. Should no such intel-
ligence be found, the Prince Albert will proceed to winter
ground, as far down Prince Regent's inlet as can be reached
for ice, possibly to Brentford, or Creswell Bay, from which
the boat parties will be despatched, in the hopes that the
missing expedition will have directed their steps to Fury
Beach, where alone they could expect to find provisions.
If the Prince Albert should not accomplish the object of
her search in the course of this year, it is the intention to
remain two years, or till the autumn of 1852. It is of
course a possible contingency that, though some measure
of success be attained, the vessel may be prevented by the
ice from returning this season, so that in either of these
cases, namely detention in the ice, or want of success the
first year, we shall have to wait for the return of the Ken-
nedy expedition till the autumn of next year.
AFFAIR OF HONOUR.—A meeting took place on Wed-
nesday afternoon in the neighbourhood of Osterley-park,
between Mr. V—n and Mr. G—y, in which Sir R. P-1
acted as one of the seconds. The quarrel arose, it is
understood, from some disagreement at cards some weeks
since at the Turf Club. One of the gentlemen having
received his opponent's fire without effect, discharged his
own pistol in the air, and so the matter terminated. The
United Service Gazette says that the principals in the
affray were" the Hon. Geo. Vaughan and W. H. Gregory,
Esq., late M.P. for Dublin. The cause of quarrel arose
at the Turf Club, in Arlington-street, from some dispute
relative to cutting in,' at which sharp words were ex
changed, and Mr. Gregory, unable to control his temper,
knocked his assailant down. Sir Robert Peel, it is
officiated as the friend of one of the parties, and Captain
Campbell,i G received

i‘r
his pistol in the air, after which the parties left the ground.
It was known for some days that the duel was to take
place, but in consequence of the Derby settlement it was
postponed until after its completion. The committee of
the club have taken the matter in hand, and we hear both
gentlemen will be called upon to resign."
GOOD STORY.—It is related that one very wet evening
last week an Islington omnibus drew up at the Angel inn,
London. A well-dressed female, who had charge of a
trunk and several bandboxes, inquired blandly but anxi-
ously, "is there room inside ?" No," growled a gruff
voice from the interior, "we're full." " Dear me, I shall
be ruined," ejaculated the female. A wealthy stockbroker
who was inside, either compassionating the young woman's
condition, or noticing that she was pretty, said, "Conduc-
tor, tell the lady that if she'll do me the honour to sit on
my knee I shall be happy to accommodate her." The
fair one acquiesceed at once, declaring she was pledged to
punctuality. The bus rolled on, the gentleman placed
his arms round the young woman's waist, and held a con-
versation with her in an under tone, till the omnibus stop-
ped at Tollington-park. " Who's for Tollington-park ?"
exclaimed the conductor. " I am," said the lady ; please
let me out." The gentleman got out also, and the trunk
and bandboxes of the young woman were duly deposited.
" Can you tell me sir," said the latter, " where Mr.
lives in this neighbourhood ?" Ah !" exclaimed the gen-
tleman, " I am he ; what can you want with him ?" " Oh
dear!" said the girl, "I am engaged by your lady as cook,
and promised to enter on ray place punctually at this
hour." The young woman had actually ridden home in the
omnibus on her master's knee. How the matter ended
has not transpired:
A YOUTH'S ATTEMPT TO REACH THE GREAT EXHI-
BITION.—A respectable youth, about fifteen years of age,
left Hull (his home) on Monday the fifth instant, with the
intention of paying a visit to the Great Exhibition. He
had :is. 6d., in cash to start with, and proposed taking the
steamer from Hull to London, but being just too late, he
crossed the Humber and got to Louth, where he slept.
On Tuesday he walked to Spilsby, and on Wednesday
reached Boston ; his money being now all gone, he took
up his lodging for the night under one of the stalls in the
fair, where about midnight the superintendent of police
found him. He was aroused and taken to the lock-up,

There being no reason to doubt the youth's story, he was
advised to go home at onus. Mr. Hambleton accompanied
him to the station and got him booked as a parcel for Hull.
On his arrival there, his parents, who had no idea where
he had gone to, received their truant son and paid his car-
riage by the railway, A day or two after the superinten-
dent of the police received a note from the lad's father
thanking him for the kindness be bad shown to his 5011,
