FISHING EXTRAORDINARY.—One of the most extraordinary feats in the annals of angling was achievei last week by the Rev. John Morgan, of Llanrhaiadr Dyffryn Clwyd. While fishing in the well-known salmon pool below Glan-y-Wern, Mr. Morgan observed a fish of extraordinary size making several leaps. After a few unsuccessful throws, the Rev. Gentleman succeeded in hooking a salmon, and after an hour's play he was brought close to land; such, however, was his strength and the violence of his struggles, that a landing net vas necessary to insure his capture. He proved to be of the extraordinary weight of 281 b. 7oz. Ttie Rev. Gentleman, with his well•known liberality, divided his noble prize amongst the poor at the almshouses, at Llanrhal:ldr, who of course had good reason to rejoice at the success of their worthy pastor's piscatorial enterprise.— Chester Courant.  ueoduunodh, a yes, Chant re, elydinJgoisnephheirnreooDniuinas , stabbed in seven places, two of the wounds being through the in the wans found, heart. Towards five in the morning a woman, who slept in the next room, heard some noise, but thinking it was only a quarrel took no notice of the disturbance. A friend of the deceased, named Caroline Baugrand, coming to see her about ten o'clock, found the door half open, and the body of Josephine lying on the ground, bathed in blood. All that has been known was that a young man passed the night with the deceased, but was not seen to go out in the morning. None of the property of the murdered girl was touched, which leads to the idea that some failing of jealousy or revenge must have actuated the murderer. An investigation was immediately commenced, and two warrants, it is said, have been issued against suspected parties.— Galignani of Wednesday. Mr. David Small, the worthy tenant of the Milton of Abernyte, has a cow which a few days ago brought him two fine calves at a birth, while it is not quite eleven months since she had other two—four calves within eleven months. We believe such a circumstance is of rare occurrence, but what is partly still more remarkable, the fruitful and thriving animal has had altogether ten calves, while she is not quite nine years old, and she was three years old before she had her first calf. Twice she had one calf at a birth ; then four times in succession she had twins. We understand she is originally off Lord Kinnaird's stock.—Dundee Courier. On the 29th September last the Tribunal of Correctional Police condemned by default the well-known Cabet, chief of the Icarian Communists, to two years' imprisonment, 50f. fine, and five years' interdiction of civil rights, on the charge of swindling in connexion with his Icarian community. Cabet, who is in America, caused an opposition to be made to this judgment, and by his desire the case was to be definitively heard in January. In that month, however, his friends obtained a postponement to the 2d April, on the condition that lie should be present. Yesterday the case was called on, but Cabet not only did not appear, but caused a further postponement to be dexanded. This, on the opposition of the public prosecutor, the tribunal refused to grant, and the condemnation was formally confirmed.—Paris Paper.
