MuLisH-Some time last year we re-
corded the remarkable fact ola female
mule belonging TO John 4. Kilby ESQ. of
Suffolk. having brought forth a real colt,
which was doubted by many, as it was
deemed a point settled that mulcs were
incapable Of ~propogating their species, or
eren producing a cross breed in short,
that they were obstinate anti analQama-
fionists BY nature. The fact, however.
was true as Davy Crockett's rifle. and has
lately been placed beyond dispute by a re-
petition Of the phenomenon by the Same
agents, MIR. KiIby informs as, that tho
same mule bore a colt on the 18th Of last
month. by tho same horse. and that Il Is
now by the side Of lis dam in the pasture
where it may be seen by every body. II
is well formed and partakes more Of the
horse than tho mule, ofcoursc. We should
like to hear the opinion Of The learned in
such matters on this extraordinary and
probably uniqc case. The mule IS ii or
II years old orfok Herald.

Education in the United States.-The
Rev. Andrew Reed Of London, in bis late
work on America, closes his remarks on
the subject Of education as follows:
II think yon cannot fail, my dear friend
TO survey this bfiefreport on the suaiect
