nhries.o or the writings of Mr.. Kelley in
whatever guise he selected. In merit
far beyond the common run OF literary
sketches which appear in our magazines
and journals, the efforts of Mr.. Kelley
always attracted attention, and were sure
TO have an extensive circulation. The
conductors of the press, ever awake 70
the humorous or sentimental, seized upon
his compositions with cheerful alacrlty,
and aided in their circulation. Inc
brain which conceived those amusing
and at times serious fancies, glows no
more with divine thoughts-the hand
which recorded so many droll lessons OF
experience is now stilled forever-Mr.
Kelley died young, leaving behind him a
wife and interesting family, for whose
benefit this compilation of writing is pub
Hshed. The book has been edited with
great care and attention, so as to present
ii with such revisions as good taste sug-
gested. and the Illustrations are all orig
inal, designed expressly for this work by
Stephens, one of the best designers OF
humorous scenes in the known world
The work contains ONE HUNDRED
AND ELEVEN different sketches by
Falconbridge, on various subjects.

CORRESPONDENT of the New York
Times. writing from St. Domingo City
Oct. rs. saws on the night of the 18th OF
October, a mob, instigated by Mr.. A. M.
Segovia, Spanish Consul-General' as
sembled before the United States Con-
sulate for the purpose of pulling down
the flagstaff and the sign, throwing stones
against the eagle, and making the great
est disorder. There were also cries OF
" Down with the fillibusters! down with
the American ensign % The American
Consul, Mr.. Jacob Pereira, repaired to
the spot for the purpose of imposing re-
spect, but all his efforts were in vain
Not being able at that moment to obtain
any assistance from the authorities, he
was obliged, for the safety of his person
and life, to leave the place of disorder
The morning after the riot the consul re-
presented lHO CASE " luC CIV
and the Mayor offered him protection
and file of soldiers to enforce that re
spect which was due to the United States
Consulate. This was, however, refused
by Mr.. Pereira, who stated that the
American flag needed no guard to cause
it to be respected, and that he was theI
prepared to meet any mob that nigh
appear. But all disturbance was soor
quelled. Mr.. Segovia took fright ant
remained at home.
The Spanish Consul has compelled
the Dominican government to Withdraw
treaty just made with the Unite States
and is exerting himself TO prejudice tn
Dominicans against our citizens. FL
has sent the American Minister, Del
monte, his passports.

STRIKING SCENE AT GAMING
TABLE.-As company of our fast
young men were busy over the card table
a few eVings since, a singular noise at
tracted their attention. It was of so I'M
usual nature that they Immediately be-
gan to look about for its cause. 1t was
repeated in another direction. Some
thing more than curiosity was now ex-
cited, and playing was suspended. I'm
mediately one of the company dropped
into what the spiritualists call trance,
and proceeded to utter, as if from his de-
ceased father, a homily against gambling
and its associate vices. This was follow
ed by an admonition purporting to come
from deceased sister of one of the CON-
pany, couched in such terms and uttered
with such sisterly feeling that the whole
group were irresistibly moved to tears
There was no more card playing that
night. None of those present were be.
llevers in spiritual manifestations. and
the scene was wholly unexpected to all
Whether it was indeed spiritual or is
capable of some other solution, is a ques-
ton. 1t was told at religious meeting
Sunday, and we have no doubt it occur
red substantially as we here repeat it.

On the Liquor Law.

In the House, Friday, Nov. z. Mr.
Powers remarked that there were many
members who professed to be warm
friends to this bill. He could not but be
reminded of certain story which he once
read.
There was once great gathering of the
numerous classes of animals. Among
them came one with peculiar stripe
He introduced himself to the assembly as
a coon. Some doubts arose among 9th
ers as to his true character. At last one
spoke out" The protested coon didn't
look like coon. He didn't act like a
coon. and what is more, didn't smell like
o coon"
So was it with these professed friends
of the temperance cause. They didn't
look like friends of temperance. They
didn't act like friends of temperance, and
whether they smelt like friends of tenn
perance, those who sit in their immediate
vicinity could better tell.
He went on to say that he had mel
different members from the town of Brat.
ltleboro--these lukewarm professed friend;
of temperance he observed thai
these members had never been returned
He thought that these men misrepresent
ed the true temperance men of Brattle
boro.
Mr.. Bradley opposed the bill, ant
commenced by saying that mankind were
divided into two great classes. Class
No. l consisted of the gentleman from
Woodstock Glass No. 2, mankind gen
orally. Glass No. was always unani
nous. Glass No. differed in thei
Opinions. Again, Glass No. l was al
ways modest. Clas No. 2 were varied
Glass No. knows all about Glass No.
but Glass No. 2 don't know one hal
labout Glass No. 1. He never said tina
he was favorable to the liquor law. H
never said anything about it.
IF any States Attorney should neglec
any duties in 20 pages of the act, h
would be liable to the severest punish
ment. Why not apply this to othe
crimes-theft, murder, &c? In this cas-
there is no act described, no crime. On
of the duties of magistrates is to spill Ii
quor in one case, in another not. A cas-
comes up before justice of the peace
if the justice neglects his duty, he mus
suffer. He must decide if he decide
one way, he is guilty-if the other, like
ly to be guilty. What is he to do? ]
1 am attacked personally, consider
addressed to my cowardice, and by tn
God above me, such arguments shall b
as weak as weak can be.
I shall do my duty, and it will tax
more than Tom Powers of Woodstock
to brighten me from it.

A BIG SHEEP.-The St. Lawrence
american of Ogdensburg says:
"The largest sheep we ever saw wa,
on board the steamer Northerner, on hel
passage from Kingston to this port. He
was two years old, and weighed three
hundred and fifteen pounds. He was an
imported sheep, and was exhibited at III,
Provincial Fair at Kingston. A gentle
man from Vermont had purchased him
and was taking him home. The pric,
paid was $3l5--a dollar pound 70
mutton! What think ye of that, farmer
of St. Lawrence He was as large as
steer"
