MUSICAL FisH.--It is stated that the
muddy creeks and shoals around Bombay
in the East Indies, abound with a species
Of fish which produce the most exquisite
music-like musical bell, or the strain of
all Eolian harp. The fish closely resem-
bic, in size and shape, the fresh water perch
Of the north of Europe. 1t is supposed that
the fish are confined to particular locations
shadows, estuaries, and muddy creeks,
rarely visited by Europeans and that is
the reason why, hitherto, no mention, as
far as we know, has been made of this Pc
culariiy in any work on natural history.

ATTEMPT TO PolsoN.-The cook maid of
the family Of the poet Hartman, a, Prague,
being aware that sum Of 1000 thalers was
kept in secreiaire, communicated the fact
to man whom she knew, aud proposed to
him to steal it. The latter gave sc me poi
son, which he directed TO have thrown into
the soup, assuring her tina, it was merely a
narcotic, which would not fail TO plunge
the family into deep sleep. A curious cir
cumslance saved them all. On the edge
OF the lamp suspended over the table las
placed a.rod, to keep in awe one Of the
children: the child having begun to cry
just as they sat down to table, Mr.. Hart
man stretched out his hand for the rod, and
in doing SO overset the soup tureen. The
cat Tapped up some Of the soup, and died
Immediately. This aroused suspicion, and
an investigation being instituted, the truth

offered him he seizes, and pressing it into
his mouth with both hands, devours it ra-
venously. He remarkably fond Of salt,
which he ea,s in large quantities. The first
