Contrast,

In recent book on Australia, written by
an Englshman, named Lancelotto, it is re.
marked that almost everything in nature
in that country is the reverse OF what II is
in England. When We have winter they
have summer; when we have day they have
night; we have our feet pressing nearly OPP
poBite to their foot; there tho compass
points to tho south; the sun travels along
tho northern heaveus the plumage of the
birds is beautiful; their notes are harsh and
strange; the swans arc black the eagles
are white; the moles lay eggs; tho owls
screech aud hOot only in the daytime; the
cukoo's song is heard only in tho night; the
valleys are cool, the mountain'tops are
warm; the north winds hot, the south winds
cold, the east winds healthy; the bees are
without sting; the cherries grow with the
stone outside one bird has a broom in his
mouth instead of his tongue; another unites
with the body and habits o: a mole the web
foot and bill of a duck. Many of the beau
| tful flowers are without smell; and even
the geology of the country is singular.

Mrs. Gen. Winfield Scott.

The death OF Mrs. Scott has already boon
announced. A New York paper says Mrs.
Scott was in her younger days one of the
most dashing bellies OF Virginia, and is re-.
ported as having been q very brilliant wo-
man. bearing off tho palm of the era of he r
youth. A very curious story is told OF her
early days, at the time when, it is said, VIM
field Scctt offered her his hand. The story
goes that she rejected him at first, but gave
him to understand that on one condition
she would marry him. He vas to go forth
into the world and win such position as in
her opinion would make himself worthy OF

ambition and. it is said, this thought 81
inspired his heart and stimulated him that
Q WAS enabled to accomplish those horoic
deeds in tho army which have immOrtaliIed
his name and crowned his Doble head with
laurels, and earned for him his country's
love. honor and respect. So goes the story
and il is a very romantic one but, like many
of similar nature that form the current
CONVERSATION of the world. there may not bt
even a shadow of truth iE it. Mrs. Scot
has sps snt Il great portion OF her iatter year
in Paris, and the veteran hero not long since
crossed the ocean for the double purpose o
recovering his health and visiting her in he
transatlantic home. The threatened diff
cultes with England. arising out Of tn,
Trent affsir, were deemed sufficient caus
by Gen. Scott to bring him back to his ma
tive land, in which ho has since remained.

result, but they are transient or deceptive.

Absence of Mind,

1t is tho privilege of great geniuses to be
absent minded, but it does not follow that
every absent minded man is genius
While many man is laughed at for his
abstraction from litIlo things, while his
mind is soaring to the empyrean in the
pathway of the stars, wis of many a dolt
are wool gathering without any idea in his
nOddle. An exchange paper tells of a man
in Boston who went to the post-ofiico TO in
quire for his lotters. and did not know how
to frame an interrogatory, having forgotten
his own name; and of a farmer in New
Hampshire, who, while revolving some
deeply important problem, sat down on his
milk pail aud MIXED the COW into the stool.
He knew a gentleman of this city who, the
next day after. he was married, called at
tho house Of his brides father, asking for
her by her maiden name. The reply of the
astonshed servant girl: "She's married, sir
and gone to live at your house" brough
him to his senses. Old Psrson Blank, who
when pruning his apple trees, would sit or
the end of limb aud saw it off inside o
him, was a case in point. But the mos
Melancholy termination Of a life of blunders
was that, as testified of the Kilkenny cats

firing to rest at night. put his patent leath

PLETHORA OF MoNEY-There seems

PLETHORA OF MONEY There seems to
be great amount of idle capital seeking
investment in oil our large cities at tho

many cases offering to pay the commissions

mortgages fall TO five per cont.
