Curious RABBITS OF MAcxKRrL.-The hab.
its of these fish are very peculiar, and al.
though they have been taken in immense
numbers for three quarters Of century,
their habits are not we'll understood. They
often move in immense bodies, filling the
ocean for miles in extent. They ore found
near the surface. Sometimes they will
take tho hook with the greatest cagcrness !;
at other times not mackerel will bite for
days, although millions Of them are visible
in the water. When they ore in the mood
for taking the bait, ten, twenty and even
thirty barrels in q few hours. They usually
bite most freely soon after sunrise in the
morning and towards sunset at evening"
They all cease to bite about the sane time,
as if they were actuated by a common i'm.
pulse. They are easily frightened, and
will then descend into deep water. It has
often happened that a fleet Of vessels hal
been lying on the Cape, say mile or two
from shore, in the midst Of school o.
mackercl, taking them rapidly upon theil
decks, when the firing Of gun, or thu
blast Of rock, would send every mackere
tathoms deep into the water, as suddenly as
# they had been converted into 30 many
pigs of lead, and perhaps it would be some
hours before they would re-appear. They
are caught most abundantly near the shore,
and very rarely out of sight Of land.

TuE DESTRUCTION orvLIrr IN 1856 -
One would almost, be inclined to believe
tina, disasters fatal 10 life ore epidemrs
when they crowd one upon another with
the 70 pidi,y and desolation which have &C
CONF anied the recital Of Them for the las,
,wo weeks. The disaster on the Northern
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad, was in its des,ruc.
ton Of life and limb, the most extensive
and the most sad in its effects Of any one
which ever occurred in the United States.
With that came the accoun, Of the burn
ing OF the Northern Indiana steamer, upoI,
Lake Erie, and the loss Of The Tinlo upon
Lake Ontario, with The extensive sacrifices
OF life connected Herewith. And we now
hear OF The roasting and crushing OF people
in one Of our own streets, by disastrous
fire within our city limils-of the sad lose
OF over a huudIed lives q, a colliery in Wales
in single moment-whcre the fire and gas
broke out upon them in their working places,
when they had not the least chance OF es-
cape-and II the loss Of life Of two poo,
women and child, who attempted 10 eros

they could not perceive that railroad irai"

iains many wholesome truths:
Not many hours ago, heard Uncle Ben

"Rely upon il, sammy" said the old
man, US he leaned upon lis stall, with hi,

e The administration of justice at
Washington is perfect farce. Herbert, the
murderer, has just been acquitted in the
face of the clearest and most positive evil
,lence of his guilt. 1t was the judge who
acquitted him, however, and not the jury ;
and this same Judge is the man who let of
Brooks with nominal punishment. In the
Herbert case Judge Crawford charged on
the first trial, and we presume similar
charge was delivered to the present jury,
that a man could kill another in self.defense,
even though he himself had provoked the
quarrel OF course, under such ruling. the
jury could not convict Herbert. The Prov
ldence Journal well remarks that" nothing
short of Vigilance Committee will be
likely to punish crime or protect innocence
in the District Of Columbia. "-Bo'ton
