BLACKwooDs MAGAZINE AND THE BRITISH
REvIEws.-In our advertising columns will
be found the usual annual announcement
of Messrs LEONARD ScorT 4 Co, in refer
ence to their reprint Of the four leading
British Reviews and Blackwood The
character of these publications is SO well
understood, that with intelligent gentlemen
any comniendation by us would be super
huous. 1t is not ont of place, however, to
call attention to the fact, that these publ
cations are offered to American readers at
about onefourth their cost in England
Their cost, indeed, is so disproportioned to
their real value, that it is only surprizing
that they are not taken in every intelli-
gent family. For Terms &c, see adv

A SERMON Losr.-A genuine black repub-
lican, calling himself the Rev William
j. Anderson honored this city with his
presence in the beginning of the week, and
had bills circulated, announcing that he
would deliver sermon, or lecture at the
court house on Wednesday evening. The
Court, at the time indicated refused to adj
journ for his accommodation Thereupon
his sable reverence few into a towering
passion, and retireing to a neigboring gro
Gerry to vent his indignation, got gloriously
drunk. He was rough, coarse, insuffera-
bly, impudent darkey, and much better
adapted to the intellectual employment OF
cotton picking, (from which he boasted he
had made his escape) than to the business
OF preaching sermons or delivering lee
lures

Court, as well as attorneys and retainers
generally, was sadly upset on Wednesday
( in our Circuit Court, which was solemnly
engaged in the trial Of q man charged
with the murder OF his own brother, by an
incident of this sort The name of GER
/ tain witness, a wellto-do farmer living a
/ few miles from Ottawa, was called, when,
in his stead, a jolly Milesiau made his ap-
! pearance at the witness stand

I are not Mr.. -

| case, and declined to swear the as.onisl.eCi

ToAps AND BEEs.-Toads are very useful animals
to the farmer and gardner, and it is pity that they
are not equally so to the beekeeper The insectvor
GUS propensites that incline them to swallow beetlea
moths and caterpllars, unfortunately lead them to
eat bees j; and not the big fat drones alone-thosa
fussy old fellows that like some bipedal animals Of
higher order make great din and do lfttlebut the
Industrious little workers, that come home laden
with honey pollen, are taken in, and no question
asked. His toadship sits quite still, and whenever
poor little bee within reach Of his long, fex
ibe tongue, there is quick snap, and presto the be
is gone. Not content with catching bees On clover
heads and among the flowers and grass, stoady be.s
comes impatient he marches up to the bee hive, and
woe betde the poor Weared bee that drops short OF
the aghtng- board when he is by. We once had two
hives placed close to the ground, and with aghting
boards that were easily accessible to the toad, he
chose to jump little One morning there were two
middle-size ones seated on one Of the alighting-
