The ORIGINAL OH MAN OF CANADA.-AbOutt ten
years ago man named Pratt, who possessed in
remarkable degree the rowing disposition, happen
ed to pass through the township of Enniskillen,
and seeing the 8 gum BEDS as they were termed,
shreWdly guessed that there was something good
to be found there. He accordingly bought seventy
acres of the land in which now the center Of the
oil districts, and after having the gum Analysed at
Hamilton, left the country. He went to the silver
mines of Mexico and amassed considerable for
tune; from thence he struck over into Mexico,
where, no doubt, he found adventure enough to
satisfy his spirits, and the breaking out of
the late war, he took up arms on the side of the
South, and fought the Yankees for four years. In
the meantime nothing was heard of him, and on
the discovery of oil at Ennisklen, his estate was
administered and reverted back to the crown.
About three weeks ago, however, the rover step
ped into large oil establishment, announced him
self as the original old Pratt, and politely request
ed the sol distant propretors to @ clear out"
Utterly confounded these gentlemen handed over
Sl00 600 to quiet the title, and Mr. Pratt set off for
Ottawa, where he asked the commissioner of
crown lands by what authority his lands were
taken from him and given to others. The answer
far satisfactory that he set off in high gee,
and, when the writer met him on the cars, was on
his way to Oil Springs to give number OF wealthy
trespassers, as he considered them, " particular
scissors" He expects to realize some S20OOOO IN
gold from the transaction.-[ Halifax Recorder

A farmer living in a hamlet near Possnitz, had
a wife and two children, and such was the wo.

they were coming that her husband to satisfy her
placed her in an underground cellar, with her two
little ones, and built up the doorway leaving some
food inside. The Prussians entered the place,
and among others, obliged this poor man to &C

he was suffered to return and reached his home,

with the wife and children, and horror stricken at

from the Baton Rouge Gazettel |
It is gratifying to witness the recuperative
efforts that are being put forth in this and other
States having for their object the stimulation OF
industry and the encouragement of the arts and
Sciences In st. Louis there was recently held an
agricultural and mechanical fair, as also a
Southern relief fair, (the latter lasting for many
days. both of which proved an immense success
Indeed, it is believed that no preceding affair of
the kind in that region, noted for its triumpha
exhibitions in art and agriculture, ever approached
that acme of brilliancy and success which charac-
terzed the two fairs held IN ST. Louis during the
present month. In the display of field products,
textile fabrics, fine artistic handiwOrk, and of
specimens of the animal kingdom, the like, per
haps has never before been witnessed on this
continent, and we can well understand how it is,
that our contemporaries of the St. Louis press
have found so much to occupy their attention ana
to crowd into their columns day after day, when
we come to consider the varied and unlimited
scope of material presented by those useful and
interesting demonstrations, whence they have so
copiously drawn for the edifcation of their read
ers. To give an idea of the interest which has
been manifested in the fairs alluded to, we will
state that the estimated number OF persons attend
ing them daily reached on some days from 10000
to so 000 and the St. Louis Journal of Commerce
estimates the aggregate amount received during
one week at the gates Of the agricultural and me-
chauical fair at $40 000 The association, there
fore besides the incalculable public benefit it is
comforting, by its magnificent enterprise, must
reap pecuniary harvest which will enable it to
redouble its efforts and to go on excelling in mag
nitude and merit in the future.
The Southern relief fair, the object of which is
to realize funds for the relief of the destitute and
suffering poor of Missouri, Georgia and Alabama,
has also been crowded daily, and its receipts have
been enormous, consisting principally in dona-
tons. These sometimes reach munifcent figure,
and we should not be surprised at the finale to see
the sum total put down at half million dollars, or
/ more.
There is to be an agricultural and mechanical
fair the coming month at New Orleans, to open on
the goth, which, Judging from the preparations
1t is certainly most praiseworthy undertaking
one which appeals to the people Of our State at
large for their favor and cooperation, and with
more than ordinary claims upon their attention.

The seconds of the latter gentleman we're the
Yiscount de Poll and NJ. Clement Duyernois, and

number ofpasses having been exchanged without
any resist, the seconds interfered and insisted on
the champions shaking hands. have never heard
that any particular kind of sword is manufactured
for Journalists to fight with but there is current
story that special innocuous bullets are made for
their use. Duels are more frequent between jour

dueling would be almost as obsolete in France as
it is in England. In the army it is scarcely ever

In the "Life and Correspondence Of Theo-
dore Parker" is the copy of a letter addressed
to Hon. John P. Hale by Mr.. Parker, and dat
ell Galesburg, ILL.,, October 81, 1856, in which
occurs the following prediction. The civil
war, if it may be called aught but rebellion
came, but, thank heaven, not the dissolution
ofthe Union. The Union holds out, and will
remain till the end OF time ii the spirit as well
as the form Of slavery shall be crushed:
Ii Buchanan is President, think the I'm

end in civil war, which have been preparing
ior these six months past. buy no books ex-
cspt for pressing need. Last year bought
i.teen hundred dollars worth. This year I
hall not order two hundred dollars worth
