Repeat proses! with boots. _  Breakfast Time.—First appearance of wasps. Desultory feeding in consequence. Everything on the table, including napkins, becomes a defensive weapon against the wasps. Some are knocked down. Uncertainty as to their being killed. They crawl and sting. Once knew a man who was stung through his stockings by a crawling wasp. Everyone sits like a tailor or Turk on his chair. Ladies nervous. Pocket-handkerchiefs used for hitting at wasps. Knew a man once who got a wasp in his pocket-handkerchief, and it crept up his nose. Forget what became of him. Between Breakfast and Lunch. wasps on the grass. Under the trees. In the sun, in the shade. Any place on the grass free from wasps is occupied by ants, or bumble bees. They say bumble bees don't sting. I tried one. Didn't it. Sit by side of murmuring brook. Dragon-flies, fearful-looking creatures that come at you with a whirring noise. They say they don't sting. Never tried. Don't intend to.  Lunch.—More wasps. Desultory feeding as before. Helping each other by fits and starts. Hornets join the merry throng.

THE MOTHERS OF ILLEGITIMATE CHILDREN.— Who are the mothers of these little ones ? Let us see. According to the last census there were in England and Virale,s about 1,000,000 female servants, and nearly 300,000 dressmakers ; and though we would rather not tell the truth, yet duty compels us to confess that it is in this IT.';fge class that the seducer finds his most easy prey. Most women desire to get married ; it is their natural, as it is a most honourable estate ; and here wo have 1,300,000 girls of a marriageable age exposed to the snares of the human, or rather inhuman, fowler. The wonder is not that they are here and there seduced, but that the chastity of the class is so generally preserved. But let one of the frail ones yield to the allurements of the tempter ; let her listen to the voice of the false charmer ; let her become a mother, and what is her condition ? Helpless is not the word, nor hopeless either ; she finds herself cruelly stabbed and wounded in her tenderest feelings. Her honour has been outraged; her dearest affections blasted. She has become the victim of treachery and voluptuousness where she fondly hoped to be the object of pure and individual love. She is abandoned to be pointed at by the finger of scorn, to be cast out from every avenue of honest industry; and in the frenzy of her anguish is it astounding that she curses the offspring that thus rouses society against her, and in a moment of madness becomes an infanticide ? Society proolaims war against her, and, overweighted with a burthen too heavy to bear, she has to fight the battle— and that battle, too, alone. It is scarcely marvellous, then, that her agony should triumph over her natural instincts, and that she should make away with the burthen and the stain together.—Once n Week.  M. Stubenrauch, professor of law at the University of Vienna, and a member of the municipal council of that city, has committed suicide with his wife, in consequence of the discovery of a deficit of 21,000 florins (52,500 f.) in the funds of the Savings Bank, of which ho was director. Ins second son has disappeared from Vienna.

THE MOTHERS OF ILLEGITIMATE CHILDREN.— Who are the mothers of these little ones ? Let us see. According to the last census there were in England and Wales about 1,000,000 female servants, and nearly 300,000 dressmakers ; and though we would rather not tell the truth, yet duty compels us to confess that it is in this large class that the seducer finds his most easy prey.

ATTEMPTED MURDER AND SUICIDE IN LEICESTER. —A shocking case of stabbing with intent to murder, and subsequent attempted suicide of the culprit, has just occurred in Leicester. A man named John Bigley, a labourer, had for some years been lodging with Thos. Halman and his wife, in Vauxhall-street, which resulted in too close an intimacy between the wife and the lodger. The husband discovered this, and discharged the lodger, who, however, continued a surreptitious relationship with tho wife, who appears not to have objected to his attentions. On Saturday night she went to seek Bigley, and found him at the Horse and Jockey public-house, in the North. She delivered some clean linen to him and left the inn, and was followed by Bigley up the, street; and when she was about to turn down a lane leading to her home ho rushed upon her from behind and dealt her a severe blow on the left shoulder with a sharp instrument, inflicting severe injury. Mrs. Holman exclaimed, " You have killed me," and Bigley replied, " I meant to do it," and advised her to make the best of her way home, and lot him know how she. was in the morning. She got home with considerable difficulty, and a surgeon was sent for, and the police informed of what had occurred. On the following morning Bigley was found on the Dane Hills with his throat cut severely, but not sufficiently so to cause death. He was conveyed to the infirmary, where he remains under treatment. Mr. Coxwell has received from Glasgow his balloon Research, as it was forwarded from Islay. It came out of the car piecemeal, a total wreck, having been cut and torn into at fewest 200 pieces. The network was sliced down with buyee, the Taives cut out of each end.  , • At,",4*„..1,141,10.40404441-Atitigivigrmlit Henderson Les ire; Andrew Lloyd, John W. ott, Joseph Rotheray, Thomas W.
