over grand ceremony at Cambrai, to inau-
purate miraculous statue ofthe Virgin, stat
ed to have caught larks in its mouth upon the
occasion of famine. He also headed Z

would shut its eyes and whistle whenever
hereto went by At Valenciennes he was
pleased to accept locket, containing lock
of hair that is recorded to have been cut of
Samscn's 5 head by Delilah, and he was also
shown the scissors with which the operation
was performed What makes the preserva-
ton of the latter relic more miraculous, is,
that it has retained to the present day the
mark stamped upon one of its blades That
mark is distinctly Sheffield. Punch.

time, we discover that the patronage we re.
ceive continues to increase as it has hitherto
done, there are other Improvements which we
