only enriches the blood and creates new
fund of energy in the system, but it has the
effect of expelling impurities from the life cur
rent which beget disease. The injurious in
fuence of abrupt transitions of temperature,
of an unwholesome climate and injurious diet,
are counteracted by it, and it promotes diges-
ton, appetite and sound repose. Give it trial
and be convinced.

C0LLIES.

James Hogg. the Ettrick shepherd, has
many anecdotes of the breed of dogs
known as the Collies. He had one named
..Sirrah,n of which he relates the follow
ing:
Upon one occasion, about seven hun
dred lambs, which were under his care at
weaning-time. broke up at midnight, and
scampered off, in three divisions, across
the neighboring hills. in spite OF all that
he and an assistant could do to keep them
together. The night was so dark that he
could not see Sir-ah; but the faithful ami
NAL heard his master lament their absence
in words which, of all others, were sure
to set him most on the alert; and without
much ado, be silently set off IN quest of the
recreant flock. Meanwhile the shepherd
and his companion did not tail to do all in
their power to recover their charge; they
spent the whole night in securing the hills
for miles around, but of neither the lambs
nor Sirrah could they obtain the slightest
trace. 1t was the most extraordinary cir
cumstance that had ever occurred in the
annals OF pastoral life. They had nothing
for it, day having dawned, but TO return
to their master, and inform him that they
had lost his whole flock Of lambs, and
knew not what had become OF one OF them
ON our way home. however, says Mr..
Hogg, we discovered lot OF lambs at
the bottom of deep ravine called the
French Cleuch. aud the interchangeable Sir
rah standing in front of them looking
round for some relief, but still true to his
charge. The sun was then up, and when
we first came in view, we concluded that
il was one of the divisions which Sirrah
had been unable to manage until he came
to that commanding situation. But what
was our establishment when he discovered
that not one lamb Of the whole flock was
wanting! How he had got all the divisions
collected in the dark is beyond my CON-
prehension. The charge was left entirely
to himself from midnight until the rising
sun; and ii all the shepherds in the for
est had been there to have assisted him,
they could not have effected it with great
er propriety. All that can further say
is, that never felt so grateful to any
creature under the sun as did to my hon
est Sirrah that morning."

The. THEATRE-OPENISG OF THE FALL
SEAsOS.-The season opened at the Theatre
last night with the presentation OF "Puck,'
an extravaganza founded upon Shak-
speare's Midsummer Nights Dream"
The text abounds in amusing hits at the in
tirmities OF fashionable life, and in laugh
able situations; all Of which Fay Templeton
and her company reproduced to the best ad-
vantage. But not even their best acting
could keep down, nor the evident good ma
ture OF the audience overlook, the ever
recurring eXecrable puns and silly jokes
with which it has become the custom OF 4
certain class Of playwrights to stuff their
literary progeny. For all that, the per-
formance was enjoyable and enjoyed.
Fay is still "Litte Fay" and the soul
OF the company, though she is rapid
" rising 10 stature and comelinesS OF
nlaturcd wOmanhood. John Templeton,
the funniest of them all, had in this play op-
porunities to exhibit his comic tones and
manners, and he availcd himself OF them, to
the cdiiication OF the audience: and Alice
Vanc. Fay's mother, was recognized at once
and roundly applauded. The whole COM
pany is deserving OF praise, and it is proba-
bic that there will be Il houseful Of the
lovers of fun tonight.
