CHINESE Ivonv CARVING.—I took some trouble and
pains to obtain a view of the instruments with which the
artists worked, but regret to say I was unsuccessful. The
ivory halls so elaborately carved, and the ingenuity with
which they are constructed, have long excited admiration,
and surprise at the artistic skill and means by which so
many concentric balls can be carved one within the other.
I know not whether any one else has made the discovery,
but the truth is, that each bail is constructed of two pieces,
the edges of which are so finely scraped dawn, that the
edge of one hemisphere is made to overlap its counterpart
with the greatest nicety. Thus one ball is coil), enclosed
within another. The joinings are then united by a pecu-
liarly strong cement, aided by the employment of steam
and pressure. Any one who wishes to make the expen-
sive trial will soon ascertain the fact by applying a very
powerful heat to one of these balls, which will open at the
joints in due time.—Dublin University Mayaziue.

BRENNAN, THE HiGnwAYmAN.-:Bretinan died by
the rope. He was hanged in the town of Clonmel, in or
about the year 1808, together with an accomplice called
"The White Pedlar." Vv remember the occasion well.
The member for Tipperary. the Hon. Montague Matthew,
a brother of the late Lord Llandaff, strongly interested
himself to procure a remission of his sentence for the
convict. It was his belief that he might he effectually
reclaimed from his dangerous courses, and render good
service to society by his active exertions as a police
officer. The Duke of Richmond was Lord Lieutenant at
that time—and, when the county member vehemently
presses! his soft, is said to have answered him, "
will consent to your proposal upon one condition."
" What is that ?" eagerly interposed Mr. Matthew,
determined that. no trifle should stand between him
and the object of his wishes. " That you," said
the jocose viceroy, " should he hanged in his stead."
Of Brennan, an anecdote was then current, which proves
him to have been as ready-witted, as he was held caring.
An old banker of Clonmel, Solomon Watson, was led by
curiosity to visit Lim it, his confinement. Brennan ob-
served to him that he, of all men, should not rejoice in
his misfortunes. " Why so ?" asked Solomon ; '' why
should not 1, as well as all other honest and peaceable
citizens, rejoice in the capture of so dangerous a charac-
ter as ? " ikenus:.," sa;,l the robber, " 1 did not join
