A powerful new iron twin screw dredger 1 built and engined by Messrs. W. Simons, & 3 00., was recently launched from the London Works, Renfrew. It is the property of his, Highness the Knedive~ of Egvpt, and is named Ibrahimleh, and it is is intended for dredging operations in the East, .under' the directions of Mr. John Fowler, the celebrated engineer, consequent on the opening 01 the Suez Canal. This vessel is of extraordinary construction1 its draught of water ‘fowrard being only a. few inches, as it is designed to cut its own' floatation, and projecting con- siderably .beyond the bow is the bucket girder, armed withsteel claw buckets, which, after cutting 'the soil,‘cox;veys it to a novel ,and ingenious receptacle, from which the soil is ejected some distance on to the ad. joining hanks of the channel. The interior of the Vessel is filled with strong and costly machinery, some of which is of brass and steel, having the treble properties 01 dredg- ing, propelling the vessel, and ejecting the soil. The engines are. on :rthe» Compound system. _ This vessel after being tested; in the Clyde, will shortly proceed under steam and canvas, to Egypt.

An examination of the premises re- vealed the most ingenious instrument of death in the shape of a piece of gas or water pipe, about five feet in length and with a bore 01 two inches. The inhuman wretches, whoever they were, deliberately filled «this pipe about halt full of powder and slugs of the most deadly description, and, thus preâ€" pared. for their dastardly deed, wended their Way to the old man’s home. Evidently they knew the exact location of hirsubed; which was an easy matter, tor the house was small, its apartments limited, and that where the old couple slept was on the ground floor, ad- joining thc room devoted to the purposes cl the grocery, ’ ' A PLATFORM FOR. THE MURDEROUS WEAPON. The deed was most deliberately planned, and full preparations had been made tor-its execution. ‘A window without shutters and with a common calico hlind' was affixed in the wall' dire'o'stly opposite the bed'. The fiend or fiends rea’red a’ platform in the yard to the hight oi the window, and upon this they placed the instrument of destruction. It is possible the exact whereabouts at the head of their intended victim had been. precisely ascertained, and the unique weapon was elevated and leveled with a keen eye.

'A light revealed a scene calculated to freeze the blood. There, on the bed, which now was stained crimson, lay old Allingham, abloody andpisfigured corpse.

It seems that Mr. Tayloir,‘ who is a widmver, Wished in July last to take a. wife, and with apparently no more hesitation in selecting his agent than if he merely wished to take a cab, applied to his servant, John Reynolds, on the subject. Reynolds a thereupon mentioned a M158 Mary McKeo'wn, of No. 5, Drumshambo, and said she was an only child, and that her father was worth £1,000 a year and had 600 acres of land." Mr. Taylor, whose suspicions do not seem to have been the least excited by the manifest want of precision in the ad- dress, immediately wrote oif to “No. 5, Drum- shambo," and receiving an answer purporting to be from‘Miss McKeown, and requesting an interview. Mr. Taylor refused, but sent John Reynolds with “hisiiikeness.” 0n the 20th of 'July he returned with a letter, signed “Mary Anne" McKeown." Some more cor- respondence passed, and after an arrange- ment had been made for an interview at Crewe and had come to nothing, it was arranged that Mr. Taylor should go OVeii to Ireland, and in September last' he did so, accompanied by John Reynolds and a stranger, whom he had met at Crewe, and whom Reynolds had rep- resented as Miss McKcowon’s groom. “We arrived,” says an affidavit of Mr. Taylor’s ‘3 ry train at Garrickgonjshannorn 1 pro«_ ported totike a: trap for Drumshambo.

More than one authenticated case has come to my knowledge of a tiger being killed by Bygas. They are seldom, if ever, the aggressors ; but when the tiger has seized one of their number, his companions have simultaneously rushed upon the animal and killed him with a quick succession of blows of their small aXes. Their old sayâ€" ing is, that the Bygas is born with an inherent knowledge of the use of an axe, and hatred to a tree; and they have a proverb to this etfect: “Give a child an axe as soon as he can crawl,'and the first thing he does is to hack at atree." On one occasion, on arriving at the village where I meant to encamp, the men were all absent on a hunting expedition; at first the women were a little shy, but when they understood that grass for the horses and firewood were all the requirements of the camp, old and young turned 'out with their axes and small sickles, and 50,0“ brought in the requisite supplies. By way of rerompense they asked to be allowed to look over the “Bahib's bun- galoms,’ never having seen a tent before. The real origin of the two races, Gem! and Byga, is quite lost in obscurity. For many centuries the conquerors of the country have called them “Bhomeas,"â€" children of the soil; deriving the name from the Sanekirt word “ bhom,”â€"the earth, on the principle that they are sprung directly from the soil. rli‘he only place where I could find any record of them was in the old Sanskrit legends; these will tell you that originally the Bhomeas comprised the whole population of the earth : inconveni- ence arose through all being on an equality, so a grand convocation was held. At this the ancestors of the present iing were elected tobe priests and elders, receiving the name of 1,331, him, from “high,” tongue, an “In,” light. rom that day the “Baghins,” “In,” light? ‘r‘mx‘n that day the “Baghins,” or Bygas, have been the superiors, the au‘ thorities on all points of religious observance, and the arbiters in all questions connected with the soil. Every village especially retains the services of one Byga, and he is the great authority on all disputed points regarding the bow daries oi forests and wastes. I have only once seen his flat disputed.” and on. that occasion two Bygas ditfered in opinion as to the boundaries or their respective village. Words ran so high that the villagers on each side that the villagers on each side turned out to back their respective champions, and not even the interference of the police could prevent a. faction-fight. The name of Gond‘ is said, by the same authorities, to have been 1 derived from two Sanskrit words “ Go,” thel earth, and “ Un,” the body, The theory is that the gonds were originally made out of , the earth, mixed with the flesh and blood of i one Rajel Benoo, a wicked king, through‘ whose sins the whole population of the earth had bet u destroyed. Many other quaint legends regarding, the Origin and one. toms or tbegra people may be quoted, but they are all purely m) thical and Very obscure. In numerical strength the Bygas eount as about one to ten of the Gonds. Their phys- ical appearance differs so much according to locatity, that a description is not- easy.

I think we may say with all modesty that this is something to be proud of. We can afiord to be told that we were raised on oatmeal, we can afford to be called “canny,” and Self-willed and pushing, so long as‘we can point to the place in the history of the world we have so fairly and honorably won. I presume we would have had no objection to a more generous diet or to an environment which would not have made habits of the most unremitting industry, and unflinching perseverance a ne- cessity. But I never yet saw the Scotsman who had not become a snob (and that is the very worst that can be said of any Scots- man), who would willingly have had his country’s lot cast in more pleasant places, at the price of what she has been able, to do for the elevation and improvement of the human family. The most brilliant of English historians has shown what Scotland has done for the civil and religious freedom of Christendom; and it is so flattering a re- cital that I would hardly care about reading it to youâ€"except, perhaps, upon a St. Andrew’s- night. Then look what she has done in the World of letters. 1 know of no three names in modern metaphysics that could be exchanged for Hume, Reid and Hamilton. Those who are best ac- quainted with science know what was done by Black, and Hunter,‘ and Button, and Watt, as Well in extending its domain as in the practical application of its principles. It Will not be deemed extravagant to call Adam Smith one of the profoundest thinkers of any age; and I may Venture to express the hope that the day is not far distant when his economic doctrines shall have become the law of every civilized nation on the globe.

This is nothing more than taking oil the old roots, the remains of last year’s corn, and cutting the top nearly down to the bulb. They can then be placed in paper bags,.bbtes or any convenient thing at hand, and placed in a. drawer or,othet dry place, where it does not freeze.
