TRoors IN CAxApA.-We learn that the
reserve battalion of the 7ist Highland Light
Infantry, under Lieut., Col. Stack, now in
garrison at Quebec, is actually under orders
for England, and will embark as soon as the
means of conveyance are provided The first
battalion Of this regiment, under Lieut.. Col
Denny, is now at Corfu. and it is more t.lan
probably that the second may be sent to tina
station on its arrival, as the junction of the
battalion was provided for many months ago
by general order of the House Guards. A
Quebec paper further states that the goth
Regiment, now at Montreal, will soon pro-
coed TO Bermuda. We have heard the same
report, with the addition that the 56th Regi-
ment, which suffered so severely at Bermuda
last year from yellow fever, comes to Cana
da TO recruit its health, as well as it's n,I-
merical strength by drafts from the depot in
England.-Ioronoto Globe.

HThe Cincinnati Commercial, Of Friday
advoca'es the construction of tunnel under
the Ohio River in preference to a bridge, in
very sensible and well considered article,
Of which the following is the conclusion:
We are unable to understand why tunnel
under the bed Of the Ohio, from this city to
the Kentucky shore should greatly exceed
in cost. a road way Of similar dimensio and
length through the hills that surround US. 1t
would be easy al moderate cost, to fix up
on a plan by which those extensive and de-.
structive breaks, which retarded operations in
and added 90 considerably to tho cost OF the
work under the Thames, could be prevented.
Modern engineering, instructed by its rail-
way experience, could bring to the work the
learning it has acquired and the machinery it
has invented; and American prese Ierance
and energy, when once enlisted in such
labor, has its own precedents to rhow that
the word "faIl"is not in its vocabulary.

DEATH OF CAPT. ToMLINsoN Capt. C. 8.
Tom !inson, Of New York, died on board the
steamer R. H. Winslow on her up trip from
New Orleans. The boat passed here yes
terday, with the corpse on board. Capt.
McGill, OF the Winslow, procured Metallic
coffin in this city, and had the body properly
cared for. Capt. T., we believe, was for
merly a steam vessel Commander in the Law
or Aspinwall California Steamship Compa'
ny, between New York and the Isthmus.-
He had been for some months engaged in
the sugar trade in New Orleans, and was or
his return to New York. He was supposed
to have died ofappoplexy. There was also

supposed to be case Of cholera.

DEFINITION OF A GENrLEMAN.-The late
lamented Judge Talfourd, in a case tried at
the Bristol (England) Assizes, shortly before
his sudden death, thus defined the character
of gentleman:
1.-THE evidence proved that the defendant,
while in the theatre had said to the pla intiff,
DO not speak TO me; am gentleman, and
you are tradesman.' 'GentIemsn,' said the
learned judge, SIS term which does not ap-
ply to any station. The man Of rank who
deports himself with dignity and candor and
the tradesman who discharges the duties of
life with honor and integrity are alike emit
tied to it; nay, the humbest artizan, who full
fills the obligations cast upon him with virtue
and with honor, is more entitled TO the name
of gentleman than the man who could in
dulge in offensive and ribald remarks, how.
ever big his station.

DREADFUL SUIcrDE.-Mr. Donnell. an es-
Unable young man. committed suicide at
Brandon, Mississippi, in the following man
ner:
When the engine was coming up to the
depot at Brandon, early on Saturday morn
ing. the Odd ult., Donnel walked to the edge
OF the railroad-as he had frequently done
beforehand there stood until it was within a
few feet Of him. When it approached him
closely, he deliberately took off his hat and
laid his neck upon the rail-the engine i'm
mediatey passing over it, almost entirely
severing the head from the body, and crush
ing the jaw-bone. Death was, Of course, in
Simultaneous. Mr. Lamb, the clerk, saw him
lay himself down, but he was too far of, and
the engine too close upon him to give timely
alarm, or to save him.
Insanity, occasioned by q severe attack of
the yellow fever last summer, was the cause
Of his sslfdestructiop.
