REMARKABLE PREsENTIMENT.-At Law
renee, Mass, about six weeks ago, a resi-
dent, who had been sick for some time, told
his friends dream that he had the night
before. It was that he was very soon to
leave this world, and take with him his
grandson, then a healthy boy at school.
About two weeks after, the lad was taken
sick, and the grand father was so firmly
convinced that his dream would be fulfilled,
that he warned those about him that medi-
cine would do the boy no good. The lad
died day or two ago, notwithstanding all
efforts to save him, and his relative re-
marked that he should follow him in few
hours. He died the next day.

with England as a measure Of national

and as the war would be a naval conflict. Il
would, consequently, be the most cheaply
conducted and besr. Commerce under the
English flag would enable the United States
to pay its war expenses from captures.

without injury. The lower half OF the wheel
reyolves in hole in the floor, and second
