JOHN BULL BEAT AT HIS OWN TRICKS BY
BROTHER JoNATHAN.-The New York Times
states that it has been a habit, for year or
two, with several Of the large English pub
fishing houses, to print costly editions Of
their works for the English market and at
the same time an edition specially designed
for the American tiarkct--pdntng, them in
an inferior style, upon cheaper paper, and sell
ling them at II reduced price. The name of
an American publisher is generally inserted
on the title page; but the books are printed
in England. This is done to forestal the
American reprint Recently, a New York
publisher made large collection of these
English printed books, re-shpped them to
London where he offered them at such prices
as to very largely underseH the expensive
English editions, upon which the publishers
had calculated TO make large profits and
these gentlemen are thus made the losers by
their own ingenuity. 1t is said a good deal
of excitement exists among the London pub
fishers in consequence of this return upon
their own heads of their own inventions.

The editor of the Cleveland (Ohio) Plain

upon the meritorious and the needy of his

that they are among the best supporters of

of theatres and taverns, of any in the land.
He would learn, too, that there are people not
so far off as Cleveland who see and pitv the
fantastic tricks of the pulled up and besotted

to loiter and stagnate in its thoroughfares. But

tives of our Republic statesmen whom it will
be his delight to honor, and in the society in
which he shall mingle many persons whose

is certainly CHEEKY and sententious inditer of

HsART-RENDINa ScENE.-A terrible accident
occurred at Scaghticoke Point, on Tuesday, by
which two boys were drowned. There were four
boys playing in skiff in the Hoosck river, above
the upper fall and that before they were aware of
it til cir little craft oated out in the stream where
the current was running at fearful rate. The
boys, discovering the danger of their position,
toied with all their energy they could bring to
bear. They gave alarm to the shore, and the
neighbors in the vicinity gathered to the scene.
The parents of the boys were among the specta.
tors, and were almost frantic. In vain were the
efforts made to render them assistance. The lads.
it was soon discovered, were becoming exhausted |,
and the boat was seen gliding to the verge of the
precipce. In an instant the boat. with her little
crew, dashed over the falls into the abyss below,
1t was fearful and heart. rending sight. MANY
anxious eyes were turned to watch the fate of the
poor lads. In an instant the boat was seen darling
out from the roaring torrent, and two of the boys
were discovered struggling in the water. They
foated to projecting rock that lay in the middle
of the stream, against which the waters foamed
and surged. The suspense and agony of the crowd
was painful. There the two little fellows hung
between life and death. To have let loose would
be death, as below them lay another fall, from
which there was no escape. A brave fellow by the
name OF Cunningham, equipped with ropes, started
for the rock to which the little sufferers cling
ing at the risk of his life. He succeeded in reach
ing the spot, and secured the boys with ropes, and
at great peril the poor little fellows, almost ieless,
were broughtto the shore. The other two boys
were drowned. Their names are Down and Finn.
