The fact which was specially communicated to

"A letter Of Prof. Agassiz, from
Pernambuco, tells of his remarkable
in obtaining specimens Of
rare marine animals. He claims
that these furnish some proof of the
theories, and justification Of the pro-
phesies, which he promulgated before
starting upon the expedition. A
profound interest will be excited
among men Of science by his an
nouncement that the deep-sea dredge
has drawn up living animals which
are scarcely. fiat all, to be distin-
.gnished from those whose remains
only have been hitherto found as
fossils Of distant geological era !;
but whether these discoveries fur.

The New York Tribune says: Ladies have
long played billiards in private life, but in
Boston, Madame GARNER, "a neat and rather
pretty little French woman" gave public
exhibition of her skill at the Melodeon Hall.
She is the wife of Prot GARNER, himself "a
crack playel,' y and her game is described as
partaking more of the sure than the bril- :
liant" as she confines herself mostly to sim
gle carOms one cushion shots and draws. She
also handles her cue aft er graceful and easy
fashion This finishes matters. Women have
now done everything which man can do,
from the preaching of sermons to the playing
Of billiards. The g equality" of the sexes
may now, therefore, be considered as settled.
To be sure we should like to know what
''equality," used in such connection, means
but never mind. We have no time to day

LINDEN OR Eastwood HONEY Jan. 6 =
Years ago advised apiarans to plant Bass
wood trees for the honey that the bees would
gather from their flowers. OF late this sub
ject seems to be attracting considerable
attention, and to-day I received a letter
from gentleman in Ohio who is preparing
10 plant several acres OF these trees for a bee
pasture. This letter led rne to look MP some
OF the old authors and see what. if anything,
;hey had to say upon this subject. AS Colu-
mella appears to have been pretty good au-
thority on Rural subjects, eighteen years ago,
turned to the chapter on Bee Pasture, and
tonnd, to my surprise. that the Linden was
placed on the rejected list. After giving
long list Of herbaceous plants, shrubs and
cultivated trees that afforded excellent pas
ture for bees, he says -" But, if Forest or
Wild trees, the most suitable and convenient
tor them are the mast-bearing Red Oaks :;
also the TuRpentine, tree and Mastick tree,
which is not unlike to this, (the last,) and
The sweet smelling Cedar but of all, the
Lime or Linden alone are hurtful How our
old author came by the knowledge tnat the
Linden was hurtful, we are uninformed. But
here is o hint from past ages-perhaps like
many other things from the same SOURCE

Patrick Gilmore, of Boston Peace
Jubilee notoriety, is an Irishman by
birth, and enlisted when boy in
the British army, where he obtained
his musical and the principal por-
ton Of his other education. While
his regiment was stationed in Cana
da, he came to the conclusion that
he had played "God Save the Queen''
long enough, so he crossed over to
Buffalo, N. Y, without asking per
mission of the British authorities.
He afterward visited Boston, which
city he has since made his home,
where he formed brass band and
a series Of 'cheap and pop
ular promenade concerts, from which
he doubtless conceived the idea of
his monster musical peace jubilee.

The FIRST ENGLISH NEwsPAPER.-Much
curiosity has been felt to learn the date of
the first English newspaper, and the circum.
stances under which it made disappearance ;
but the origin of what may be called the
English newspaper, as the phrase is under
stood, is shrouded in mystery which none of
the many efforts made with that view have
been able to explain. There can be no doubt
that the first printed intelligence of impor-
lance transmitted by government to various
parts of the country. in a form somewhat re-
sembling the newspapers of half q century
afterward, were sent by Lord Burleigh, then
prime minister. of Queen Elizabeth, in the
wear 1888. Tue Intelligence related to the
fact of the Spanish armada having made g
descent on the English coast.

thought the police Of Boston when
they seized a quantity Of the ''Jocky

proprietor swore that his s'bitters'
were not only highly medicinal, but
that they might be considered a
tempera nee beverage, as they con-
tanned only alcohol enough to pre-

ing testimony in proof of this, the
"Bitters'' were held by the Court to
be an illegal fluid, though the case
was taken up on appeal. There il
in the market great quantities Of flu
id nastiness advertised as ''Bitters,'
all containing alcohol, and all bought
and consumed for the sake Of the
alcohol which they contain. IF they
possessed a 1.-THE Of the medical
efficacy which is claimed for them,
