Four mineral springs, reputed to possess med-

some to be the fabulous " Florida waler," have
recently been discovered on the plantation Of
Major Taylor, in Florida. What is SO singular in
regard to these springs is, that they should all
have their origin and hold their course so much
alike, Ineandering along within two hundred
yards OF each other TO their outlet at Lake Mum
roe. There was a legend rife in Spain many
years ago that In this same howery and fertile

Nor TRuE.-It is amusing sometimes 10 observe
the blunders into which newspaper editors, propos-
ing to have the most accurate information relative
to matters in the old World occasionally fall. The
albion of last week, commits number Of blunders
ofthis description. Amongst them is the statement
that Bishop Higgins, whose active partici patton in
the repeal agitation excited good deal Of interest,
was the protege of the Granard family. This is al
together erroneous. The Bishop is a self.made
man, and is under no obligations whatever to any
portion of the arstocracy, for whom he processes
80 little regard. wedeemit worth while to correct
the mistake into which the Albion has fallen, mas.
much as it is calculated to cast injurious imputa-
ton on the character Of the Bishep, and the award
ing OF justice to all men, is duty which we would
desire uniformly to discharge.

which modern society was framed from the ruins OF

lad on the resistance which the English priesthood
opposed to the enforcement of the law Of &C.

And thither focka mighty crowd of priests bsyond all
number,
Both shsven heads and hora crowns and such monasc

But not layman allow the councilto cucumber
They met in thousands as NO house could give accom-
mediation,

location.

And to his grevng brethren, then, he made this brief
Grafton:
We've met together here my friends to save our dar
nunco has just arrivd to turn them from our houses
cannot speak, this attempt such indignation rOuses
1t makes ne mute as any ass on the hillside that
browses!"
And, looking at the faces sal by which he was
rounded,
Said, by one wife, you well know, my wishes have
beer bounded,
And III not yield her TO tho laws this legae has pro-
pounded"
Our vicar took the second place. you know he is no
spouter;
But, when battles to be fought, champion can be
stouter:
Said he, You know I've got wife cannot do without
her:
And that. my friends, is all the speech to make
about her"

shame, sirs
That once hundred eoncubines upon mo had slaim,

But now Pm contented with single buxom DAME sirs
And would not for purse Of gold be parted from the
