It ended in marriage which was leisurely re- gretted. In about two years the young people, in the words of the novelists, “ drifted apart," Speer going forth from his quiet home, in Roslyn, L I., to battle with me hard world in the capacity of con- mereiul traveller. Emeline went to work in elerge Brooklyn store, and, after five were, in the comfortable belief that Spear vans dead, married a man by the name of Bxeukmsyer. The life of the Blackmeyer femin was about as smooth as most people's until one day last Winter, when Bl nonmeyer and his wife met Spee‘r on Fulton street “face to face.” Emeline said, " Gaod gracious, Jim, is that yon? ” and “ Jim ” went straight off ‘ to Lawyer Kendall and begin the divorce proceedings which have ended successfully.

Consequently Mgr. Capel’s fellow-travellers were much surprised when the train arrived at Oakland to find a solitary priest,accompanied by a layman, the only Church representative on hand to receive the prelate. Instead of going to the Archbishop’s residence, as other Church dignitaries have when vi Aitiog here, Mgr. Capel made the Palace Hotel his headquarters. There are two factions in the Catholic Church here, one headed by the Archbishop and the other by the Society of Jesus, who have the extensive Collrge of St. Ignatius and own much valuable pro- perty. Owing to disputes, the two branches are anything but coniial. Mgr. Capel tra- ternizsd with the Jesuits. and delivered several lectures under their auspices, but was almost entirely ignored by other Catholics. § t...nn~...~._‘_._ m _..

The people were dieueutented, and a strong {With-MOE was begun allover the country for Paulie- meniery zeiorm. The year after Waterloo the préce of provisions fell very low, and many of the farmers were unable to pay their rents. To remedy this evil, and protrct the British formcr against foreign eempetition, the Legislature passed the obnoxious Ooru Laws, which. by putting a tax on grain imported irom abroad. raised the price to the home growers. This piece of class legislation aroused the indignation of the people, and intensified the agitation f)! ref-vim. An alarm was raised that the farmers and corn merchants had bended themselves together to store up corn and withhold it from the market for the pur- pose oi raising the price. This led to food riots in most at the large towns in the kingdom. One of these outbreaks of popu- Ier fury, commonly termed “MEAT. M he," took piece in Dundee on the night of 5th December, 1816. Suffering from the pangs of hunger, and gcaded to frenzy by the ap- prehension ol a. dearth of rose], the people gathered in the streets on the evening in question to discuss their grievances. Animated to fury and incited by a gang of ;roughs, the mob broke out into open vio- lence and attacked the shops of the “ meal sellers.” The riot began at the loot of Hilltown bye. furious onslaught on the shop 0: a provision dealer. The windows of the shop were smashed with stones, and the rougle broke into the premizes and threw the stock of provisions out into the street. The hungry wretches seized what they c'iuld lay hands on, but in their med frenzy large quantities of meal and bread and other edibles were trampled under their feet in The muddy streets, and wantonly destroyed. From Hilltown the mob rushed madly all over the town, committing havoc and destruction wherever they wont. For hours the town was in the hands of a law- less mob, and the authorities were power- less to quell the tumult. The six town c-iiioirs who then constituted the whole pause force of the hnrg‘i were utterly in- adrquste to [reserve the peace. The dam: ge done by the mob was estimated at 4 £117. Provost Riddoch and his brother magistrates acted very promptly in the matter. They met at once and issued an address or proclamation to the inhabitants, and offered a reward or fi‘ty gnineus {or information that would lead to the appre- hension of the ringleaders. The shat of Napolron Bonaparte set in blood on tha field of VVawerloo on the 18:}: June, 1815, and the blessings of peace were enjoyed by the unions of Europe. “ There was peace through all the world,” but ” peace and plex-ny ” did nob come hand-in- haud together.

He was the proprietor of Ex-ter ’C'uange; and oenupied with the sale of cutlery. turnery, etc., about one-half of that extsneive range of building. Among the anecdotes told of him. it is reported, that when the income tax was imposed, he gave in his schedule at 6,000L The tax collector returned it to him for amendment. under the supposition that he had returned (and over-rater], too) hlfi whole stock, instead of his annual income. Mr. Clark hitched on another 1,000l and assured the collector that he was sure it was the full amount. “Aye, but (said the other), I want your income, not your property." " Are you content?” “Yes!” "So am I,“ replied the old merchant, and wished A deafih notice contains particulars show- ing that willingness ho pay income tax was as rare in the old days as in these : A case of'considerable interest lately came on before the Justice of the Peace at Jedburgh. The Marquis of Lothian is pro- prietor of the barony of Nisbet, stretching alonget the north side of the river Teviot. Conceiving that his right of ownership gave him also the property of the trout and other small fishes in the stream, and aflord hima title to prevent any person from fishing. he complained upon certain tradesmen in Jedburgh, for having fished there for trout, with the common hand rod, and insisted that they should be prevented from doing so in future. The defenders answered : let, That the Justices have no jurisdiction in this case, necessarily re- quiring the production and scrutiny of the title-deeds of the pursuer. 21d, That the Marquis had produced no title to show that he had an exclusive right, or indeed any right, to the trout and common fish in the Tevion at Niebet, and it is well known 3 there is no right even to salmon fishings above Roxburgh and Simlaw. 3:d, The, right to fish for trout with the hand rod is common to all, and may be enjoyed by anyone, provided he does not trespass beyond water mark upon people’s grounds. In support of which they referred to the Roman authors, and to the authorities cf Craig, Stair, Rankton. etc., who lay it down as law, that “ there are common freedoms of every nation to fiih in the sea, and in brooks and rivers, for common fishes, and therefore needs no concession from the King or other superior." 4th, In confimta- tion of this common freedom, to fish for common fishes, without leave of the King or superior, the defenders averred, and it was not denied, that the inhabitants of Jedburgh and neighborhood, had been in the use of fishing in the Tevlot, Jed and adjoining rivers, without the least interruption, for many hundred years; that they could not be deprived of this freedom ; and that it was particularly hard to attempt it at a period of unprecedented distress, when many in their situation (all poor but hon- est man) might gain a meal of meat with the rod, when they could get no other em- ployment. The Justices did not come to an immediate judgment, but ordered the Marquis to produce his charter. to see if it contained a right to trout-fishings ; and, in the meantime. prohibited and discharged the defenders from fishing, till the case is finally settled.

The ship General Bend. which has ar- rived in Baltimore. from Liverpool, was boarded on the passage from two British Indiamen, which had touched at St. Helena, the ofiicers of which reported that Bmeparte enjoyed the best of health and spirits, and apparently was much resigned to his situation ; that he tcok a great share of exercise, particularly on horseback, which was so violent and rapid that his attendants and guards could rcarccly keep up with him; and, upon being told he must in future keep a gentler pace, he was dis- pleased, and shut himeelt up for two days.

John King, who hns an orchard at Red Bluff, in the States, says that he had heard that a sure way to keep rabbits from eat- ing the bark off young apple trees was to kill a rabbit, out it into pieces, and rub the remains on the body of the tree. He cou- oluded to try the experiment. and found it entirely successful. It a. rabbit goes to an apple tree he invariably smells of it, audit he finds the scent of a dead companion on it he leaves at once and never returns.

One that has o’mato the ears of the historian is about a gilded youth who went, of all places for a dude, to Roseenu Lake, proba- bly to seek the oompleteet relaxation possi- ble from the arduous task of trying to rub through the world without brains. There he met another dude, and the two set up a little mutual-admiration society. The rest of the people at the hotel guyed them a little, but finally, in the kindness of'their hearts, they sent a couple of charming young ladies to invite the dudes to take a' part in a little informal dance that they were getting up. , v “ Thanks, awfully I" said the two dudes in chorus ; ” we never dewnce alter the hit of July I" nwvnw interest on the attempt to put en nd to the white slave trade in Africa, the philoso- pher and the philostrophiet cannot but sur- vey with still greater interest the state of society in France, the progress of opinions favorable to social happiness, the Bubsiding of those volcanic irruptione which threat- ened every quarter of the globe, the crisis of the despotism in the Peninsula, and the development of these natural and moral energies in South America, which will at some future, but perhaps dietent period, lay the foundation or more than one consider- able empire. nanny Luuuu greater than at present, in a. little time the channels of industry and of commerce WI” flow freely, and diffuse plenty throughout every corner of the land.

The con- cussion has been terrible; the danger to which the tranquiiity, the prosperity and the very existence of civilized society in Europe had been often and long exposed, has been averted by the combined wisdom and energy of established governments ex- erted against wild political theories and the most savage and powerful military despot- ism ever known.

Well, he ought to come 1.000, but I overheard a girl say that these 500 mile nags were awful scarce and very uncertain, and it one of them were coming for her he must be coming in a walk and stopping under the shade of every tree on the road; she said she wanted a “ get-there-Eli ” teller. â€"Galt is now lighted by electricity. \Vho Ihe‘Bese Children Are.
