ONE DAT LATER


Nfw IoRK, June 23.-The editers Of
the Gazette have received by the elegant
packet ship I.ondon, capt. Dander, Lon
don papers to the evening ofthe 18th, and
a Portsmouth paper of thu i6th. contain
ing Pasfs dates Ia the le;h ut. From
the extracts given below it will be seen
that Nina had succeeded IN gainng the
rear of Marshal Money, aud great appre-
tensions were entertained that be would
eater TIE French territory. The adyan-
ced guard OF the French army which had
reached +aladolid, had IN consequence of
orders TO that effect, retraccd its route To
Burgess.
We learn from passenger in the Lon
don, that the weather throughout England
had been excessively cold for the season,
aud the crops very backward, the corn
markets had consequently experienced Il
slight advance. The season WAS cons-
dered at least four weeks ,sler than the last.
The King Of England's health had 50
much improved, that his physicians did
NOT consider II necessary to issue any more
bulletins.
PANS, May -, O'Clock, p. NJ.
Nina has entirely out-gcneraIed his an
tagonists-boih the French aud Spanish
Royalists-both regular officers aud men
OF the Faith. A dispatch arrived this NOR
ning from Marshal Money, dated the
l It'll inst. in which the Marshal announces
severe check 20 the invading army. II
was the intention of the commander of the
united French and Spanish forces TO Gem
pei Nina IL fight near Vich, or To drive
coll ,.T IL,

refer you to the journal DIES Debates Of this
morning for an account OF the movements
which they had made, and the objects at
which they aimed. The Constitutional
General SAN their intentions, aud he entire.
~ eraded them. Instead of retreating
by Oiot and Caslefollit, upon Campretlon,
as Was al first said, he turned his right up
on Ripon, drove before him Ron.agosa
aud a division Of French troops. and with
the greatest part III his force has march

sage into Arragon. Having gained tire
valley ofthe SeSra, be can esther proceed
towards Lerisa, occupy Crrdagnc, or
threaten the rear of the allied troops in
L atalonia.
This able movement excites the admira.
ton OF his antagonists Some Of those an
taSonists will he reprimanded, and other
wise most likely recalled for allowing
themselves to be SO OUT enerared. =
Cnriai, D'Eroles, and Bonnadieu have got
orders To cEert themselves to repair the
FAULT which they have committed, hut that
will not be in their power. Nina and his
troops are accustomed to the mountains
and the climate. The French are already
suffering from heat, scanty subsistence,
and itguc, and there is no chance now
that they can DO any thug in Catalonia.

MEANS OF PRESERVING EGGS.

In 1890, tradesman of Paris asked permission of
the Project of Police TO sell in the market, eggs
that had been preserved year in composition OF
which he kept the secret. More than $4,000 of
these eggs were sold in the open market without
any complaint being made, or any notice taken of
them, when the Board Of Health thought proper to
examine them. They we're found to be perfectly
fresh, and could only be distinguished from others
by pulverous stratum ofcarbonate of lime, remar
ked by M. Cadet to be on the egg shell. This in.
duced him to make series of experiments, which
ended in his discovering that they preserved in high
lily saturated lime water. Nj. Cadet suggests adj
ding little saturated muria,e Of lime but gives
reason. They may also be preserved by INNER
sing them twenty seconds in boiling water, and then
keeping them we'll dried in fine sfed ashes; but
this will give them grayish green colour. The
method of preserving them in lime water has been
long the practice Of Italy they may be kept thus
for TWO years. This useful mode is well known in
many parts of England, and cannot be TOO much re-
commended. European Magazine.

HOY TO ENJ0Y A MERRY CHRISTMAS.

SIR John Ramsea in his CHRISTMAS eau

cold at this season. and therefore good fires, good
eating, and good drinking, are unquestionably a

laid in for external warmth, and generous liquors
for internal. The OK is fattening for slaughter
the poultry are put up to feed; the mutton, the

this very good. The blessings brought by the

THE VICAR OF BRAY.

son of the Church mentioned: probably his name
may have outlved the recollection Of his man9u-
vres to keep possession Of his benihce. The Vicar
of Bray, in Berkshire, was Papist under the away
of Henry the Eighth, and Protestant under Ed
ward the Sixth; he was Papist again under Queen
Mary and again Protestant in the reign of Queen E.

preached for his frequent apostacy he made answer

gion, am sure kept true to my principle: which

And shines in dazzling white;
The woods wild chorsters are mute,
NO more the blthesome shepherds flute
Statutes the car Of night.
Inc silver streams, which gurslng play'd,
In many a may round,
When Flora's gems the meads array'd,
Within their pebbly beds are laid,
In icy letters bound.
The gold-hair'd monarch OF the day
Now runs shorter race,
and scarce the chrystal from the spray,
Or from the trees their coats OF grey,
His Doon.tide beams can chase.
The peasant blows his aching nails,
His ruddy face turns blue:
And whilst the milk maid fills her pals,
The bitter breeze her nose asssils,
And gives cherry hue.
Long icy gems adorn the thatch,
In many gllttering row,
The grey boar hangs upon the latch,
While through the rude unskiiiu patch,
The rnffian winds do blow.
The floods glit,ering crust encase,
And many youth is seen
Swift gliding DER the slippery space,
And quaint devices oft they trace,
Upon the CLASSY scene.
Now on the hospitable hearth
The cheering faggots blaze,
And many iocund Jest has birth
Midst Christmas-ale and rural mirth,
In harmony and case.
