CAPT. MARRYATT AS A MIDsHIPMAN.-On the
23d of September, 1906, he entered the navy as
first class boy on board the Imperieuse, A guns,
commanded by the iustnous Lord Cochrane.
During his service under this gallant officer, which
lasted till the 18th October 1909, he took part in
more than fifty engagements, in which many ships
of war and merchantmen were cut out, off the coast
of France and in the Mediterranean. Having
chased ship in the Bay of Arcupon, which sought
safety under the guns of battery, Lord CochrAne
resolved to cut her out, and young Marryatt was
one of the boarding party He followed closely the
first lieutenant who headed the expedition, and who
at length after his party had sustained severe loss
succeeded in gaining the deck of the enemy. He
had scarcely done so when, struck by thirteen mus
ket balls he fell back corpse, knocking down his
follower in his fall, who was trampled on and al
most suffocated by his shipmates, who, burning to
revenge their leader, rushed forward with impetu-
Gus bravery.
The vessel captured, an examination took place
of the bodies of the killed and wounded. Marryatt
numbered among the former, and being in a state
of stupor, was unable to deny the doom assigned to
him. But soon arrived the surgeon and his assist
ants, and with them came a midshipman, who
bore no good will to Marryatt. This worthy youth,
seeing the supposed lifeIess body of his comrade,
gave it slight kick, saying, &C Here is a young
cock that has done growing! Well, for wonder,
this chap has cheated the gallows!" This saluta-
tion with its comment, revived the almost expiring
energies of the other, who family exclaimed You
are a liar" retort which, notwithstanding the
melancholy scene around, produced roar of
ughter.-Benhey's Miscellany

esting animals, differing in many respects from the
American or English stocks. They are red, like
most of the Devonshire breed, but are taller and
more slender Their heads and limbs remind one
vefy much of the deer. They are perfectly gentle,
and considering their six months confinement on
board ship, are in remarkably good condition. Their
age is ten months, and their height is uncommon,
though we have doubtless seen heavier calves of
the same age. We hope the Legislature will, in
accordance with Gen. Richardson's suggestion,
adopt some judicious plan for rearing and breeding
