The FrlgAte Bird.

I see small blue point in the heaven.
Happy and serene region, which has
rested in peace above the hurricane! In
that blue point, and at an elevation of
10000 feet, royalty floats a little bird
with enormous wings. A gull? No, for
its wings are black. An eagle? No; the
bird is too small. 1t is the little ocean
eagle, first and chief Of the winged race,
the daring navigator who furls his sails,
the lord Of the tempest, the scorner of
all peril the man-of-war or frigate bird
We have reached the eliminating point
Of the series, commenced by the wing
less bird. Here we have a bird which is
virtually nothing more than Virgins,
scarcely any body-barely as large as
that of the domestic cock-while his
prodigious pinions are fifteen feet II
span. The great problem of fight ..
solved and overpassed for the power of
flight useless. Such bird. naturally
sustained by such . support, need not
allow himself to be borne along. The
storm bursts; he mounts to lofty heights,
where he finds tranquility. The poetic
metaphor, untrue when applied to any
other bird, is no exaggeration when ap
piled to him; literally, he sleeps upon
the storm. When he chooses to soar his
way seriously, all distance vanishes; he
breakfasts at the Senegal; he dimes in
A nerica-Mechelet.

Justice in the Good Old Times.

Says Gamblers Journal: To Tyburn
doomed men from Newgate were carried
in half dozens, as if for public entertain
ment. We can hardly in the present day
realize the brutality of these exhibitions.
to which, however, ladies of quality
regularly adjourned to see the show.
Hanging formed a holiday amusement Of
the fashionable society OF London. Such
was the disregard Of human feeling that
officers of the law were not ashamed to
practice cruel receptions on convicts at
the very scaffold. A person named David
Lindsay, convicted of traitorous visits to
France, was sentenced to die, and carried
TO Tybprn in spite of an amnesty. When
bis neck was in the moose the Sheriff tested
David's courage by telling him he might
yet save his life ON condition of revealing
the names Of alleged traitors. David,
however, sorely tempted, declined to save
his neck on such terms. Thercupon the
Sheriff ordered the cart to drive on; but
even this move toward leaving Lindsay
suspended did not shake his stout spirit.
All this time the Sheriff had reprieve
for the unnecessarily tortured fellow in
his pocket Before the cart was fairly
from under Lindsay's feet it was stopped,
or he would have been murdered. Taken
back alive to Newgate, a very unusual
spectacle, Lindsay, after being nearly
starved in a loathsomesduugeon, was St Mt
into perpetual Punishment; ultimately be
died Of hunger and exposure; in Holland.
As the hanging of some thousands of
rebels would have shocked ordinary
decency, vast numbers were condemned
to be banished, as an act of grace, tol the
Plantations. or were. 'made over as pres
ents to trading courtiers," who might
pardon them for reconsideration" Think
OF lords and ladies at Court being pre-
sented With groups of convicts on whom
money could be made by selling pardonsl
The fact throws new light On this period
of English history. As regards trans,
portation. some not uninterestiug and lit
tie known particulars are given concern
ing Rob Roy. Twelve years after''t
rebellion of IT'S Rob was taken to Lon
don in connection with the Disarmament
Act, and sentenced, with many others, to
be transported to Barbadoes. Handcuffed
to Lord Ogilvic, he was marched from
Newgate through the streets of London to
barge DIT 'Blackfriars, and thence to
Gravesend. ''This," says DR.. Doran, lis
an incident which has escaped the notice
of Waiter Scott and of all Rob's biograph-
ers!7' Before quitting England the barge

he kept fastened in the yard. One morn

his friend as usual ut the breakfast table,

tered, and was astrn;shcd to find the
master $ bloodhound III the bedroom, IL
very large and fierce dog, who had broken
his chain and escaped from the yard. and,
having scented Il stranger in the house,
had slipped into the bedroom, as the door
had been left unciosctl by Il servant who
had called the visitor in the morning
The dog was on his hind legs at the foot
Of the bid with his iorrIcct Resin" on it,
liking his c,ct intent|y and tcrociously

wailiny for 'n opportunity to spring upon
him, from which he was only restrained
by his prisoner keeping his eyes stc:ail !,
fixed upon the animal, and the colonel
was detained in this most uucnviab!c
CONDITION Tor more than half All hour.
The dog must have been very cumming, as
he made his way up st,i's unotscrvcd
