An Incident of Oriental Life.

lsmaoi Pashl was the second son of Mehemet
All, late Vlceroy of Egypt. In personal ap-
pearlnce, he strikingy reSembled his father :;
the same expansive forehead, the same piercing
eye, the same thick-set muscular frame was
common to both, and when that deep melodous
voice, or that nervous character marked footstep
was heard echoing along the marble halls of
the palace, even the household slave could no,
tell the father from the sons In cboract er
they differed slightly and this difference seem
ed rather the effect of education than the hand.
WORK OF nature the one had been born and
bred fisherman, the other as the favore of a
king; the sire had struggled through obstacles
that would have ground common man to dust.
and learned, if not humility, to assume its earb.
where it would conduce TO his advantage; the
son, encircled by the affluences and honors of
royalty, was something vain, and strangely I'm

Latest from Sir John Ross.

ExTRAoRDINARY FLIGHT OF CARRIER
PIGEON.- We have learned from private source
that on Friday last two of the carrier pigeons
taken by Sir John Ross when he left the port of
home in the event of his either finding Sir John
Franklin or being frozen in, arrived at Ayr, fin
ding their way at once to the dove-cote which
they occupied previous TO being taken away
The birds we understand, arrived within short
time of each other; but neither of Them, we re-
gret to be informed, conveyed anything in the
shape Of u ettc! or note of any kind. One Of
them, indeed, which may have had some docu-
ment attached was foundto be considerably mu-
tlatid, It's legs having apparently been shot a
way. The arrival of authentic news from the
Arctic regions will be looked for with addition
al anxiety, from the probability which has now
arisen that some iidings may have been heard of
Sir John franklin Independent, however, of
the interest which otherwise attaches to the ex-
traordnary flight Of pigeons, it will be regarded
by naluralIss as most remarkable incident
We 90 not recoIlect Of any parallel to it. The
distance the creatu 'es must have traversed can
not be far short of 1000 miles, and as they
travel by sight, and not by scent, the fact is the
more extraordinary Sir John. we believe t"nb
five pigvous with him, which, it may be remen-
bered, were stated in the last accounts received
of him to have been at that time all alive, so
that there are still three to be accounted for

Chinese Tradition of the Deluge

In an adress lately delivered in Dublin by Dr..
Gutzlaff, that distinguished man among other
things, made the followin statement Let them
now look to the east of Asia, and there on its
shores, washed by tue Pacific, they would find
China, an ancient nation, which has retained its
customs for over 5000 years, with strcness
and attachment that would do honor to better
thins. In fact the Chinese had continual his
tory even from the deuge up to the present time +;
they had writer's in all times and in all circum
stances, and they had language which, in its
essential parts, had undergone very little change
tor the past two thousand years, Was it not Il
wonder that this nation could exist so long and
could not be subdued by the storms that had
swept over the plains Of Asia The fearful in
roads oil barbarians who wasted and overthrow
the Rom,n Empire in the West and in the East,
all that the wisdom The Hindoos had establish
ed, did not annihilate or dsperse his own nation
tor he called the Chinese his own nation.) The
invaders of China, instead OF giving their lri-
umph national character, were obliged in time
to algamate with the Chinese, and thus ma
ton was preserved in its purity. Chinese his
tory stated that there was at one time great
deluge, when the waters rose to the heavens, s.
that the empire was converted into a swamp
which King called Shun got drained BY means
of canuls whose mouths opened into the seas &
rivers.
The date OF this event only differed iew
