The Searull and iLe Fish -, man.

In the fishing village OF Auchmithie
(the Musselcraig of SCOTS "Anti-
quary') YOU may frequently witness
seagulls flying into the houses of the
fishermen and partaking of food from
their hands. One of these seabirds
was in the habit of staying in II fisher
mans house all the year round except
at the breeding season. when it left.
About fortnight ago, when the gull
was away, the fisherman removed his
home from Anchmithe to Arbroath
(the FairpOrt of SCOTS "Antiquary"
distant some three and half miles
from the former place, taking MP his
residence in South street, of Arbroath.
The fisherman never expected to see
his old friend the gull again. 1T was,
therefore, much to his establishment
that he beheld one recent Sunday the
seabirl come walking into his new
residence with state y steps to resume
his old familarities and household
ways with his boarding house keeper.
Query: Was there not a spiritual bond
between the two friends, created by
mutual affection, something more than
was conferred on the gull by senses
of sight and hearing, or even instinct
in its usual acceptation?-London

not one whit behind his cpntempor-
aries, for he also was an artist, and
beautiful specimens of his handiwork
remain to this day. He wrought the
most graceful forgings by means of
the fewest possible numb,r of tools
forgings which showed his love of the
beautiful, and painstakiug desire to
turn ont work OF great merit The
numerous exquisite examples of his
handicraft, which exist in our old

serve as types for continual imitation.
