try where one more coored persons have been ad-
mitted to be members of the bar, one of the latter
was present, and joined in the mrth and hilarity Of
the evening with the spirit as his paler breth-
eren. As the evening advanced some of the party
became somewhat elated, having partaken rather
freely of sparkling hook, champagne, and proposed
that the member from Africa should favor them with
a speech. The cry for speech from thu" member
from Africa" rang through the hall, and after the
noise had subsidized the person referred to arose and

and turn them every day. In this way the vitality may
be preserved for several weeks.

cross action, each charging the other with ossanlt

that the wife in herturn had pushed the door against
her husband. A gentleman at the bar remarked that
he could see no improperly in the man and his wife

FANNY KEMBLE ON HORSEBACK. The cor
respondent of a contemporary writing from Boston
under date of Feb 2lst says that Fanny Kemble at
tracts deal of admiration by her horsemanship,-
She rides alone every day between twelve and one
O'Clock, and generally has quite tractable animal
but few days ago she came near finding her match
new and fiery horse was brought her, and by the
time she came down the hotel steps alone, the ami
NAL had become quite restiye She seized the reins
to spring into the saddle but it no go; the horse
sheered. The groom endeavored to assist her. She
waived him off, and again essayed to mount: but it
was quite useless-the proud beast spurned rider.
The lady bit her lip, and passed the birdie to the
groom-S'Fake him back to the stable and keep him
saddled till come-I will be there in ten minutes .
Saying this, she quickly returned to her room, and in
few moments afterwards might be seen, whip in
hand, and spurred like belted knight striking to-
wards the establishment of Messrs Fuam & Co.
near at hand Here she succeeded at length in
mounting her Bucephalus, and when fairly seated,
whipped him unsparingy. The enraged animal
reared and plunged but he could not discharge or
brighten his gallant rider Two or three times he
reared so high that the grooms thought he would fall
backwards; but finally he succumbed and trotted
quietly away with his burthen.
