As for their conversation, it is of the most vapid kind, consisting of discussion concerning the relative merits of each other's jackasses, or of the last chicken fight in the plasa.

After cutting a stick of red cedar suflicient to make three or four canes, he fastened it over his shoulder and made the perilous return, over the rounde of the ladder, the same way he went. The slightest giving way of the ice, his frail bridge and himself would have been hurled into instant destruc- tion; or had he missed his hold in the least, certain and instantaneous death would have beeu the consequence. The river has never been so filled with ice above the falls as at present, and a century may roll around before this perilous feat could be accomplished again. i> The “Angel Gabriel” has been blow- ing his horn in Demerara—his native place— to some purpose, resulting in serious disturb- es between the blacks and the numerous rtuguese. There has always, it seems, been ill-feeling between these classes in that coun- try, but it has never broken out in hostilities till the ‘Angel's’ return. He adroitly scized upon this ill-feeling, and mixing it up with his religious attacks, the blacks became ex- cited, and assailed the Portuguese with cries of **Down with the Portuguese!” “ Down with the Pope!’’ The upshot of the matter was that ‘‘Gabriel’’ was arrested.

His mo- ther resides at Georgetown in that province t= Professor Ebrenburg’s microscope which did such good service in procuring undenia- ble proof of the Simonides’ fraud, has been made use of again, in Prussia, to detect the thief that stole a barrel of specie, that had been purloined on one of the railways. One of a number of barrels, that should all have contained coin, was found on arrival at its destination to have been emptied of ite pre- cious contents, and refilled with sand. On Professor Ehrenberg being consulted, he sent for samples of sand from all the stations alo: the different lines of railway that the specie had passed, and by means of his microscope identified the station from which the interpo- lated rand must have beentaken The sta- tion once fixed upon, it was not difficult to hit upon the culprit in the small number of employees on duty there. A Lavy ix Comuanp or a U_ 8S Fort — Lieut Montgomery, of the United States Army, not long since lost his life in the service in Oregon. His death left his widow, aaa f Miss Northrop, of Akron, Ohio, and one child, in comparative penury, as is generally the case with those who devote their lives to their country ’sservice. She returned, and General Jessup, with the kindness of heart and chiv- alry which characterise a brave soldier, im- mediately gave to her, it is stated, the trust of Fort Gratiot, now unoccupied by a § aduty which she can fulfil, and the pay of which is very fair. Tax Missovurt Pactric Rattnoap —It ie announced in the St. Louis Intelligencer that Governor Price (who was opposed to the mea- sure aud which passed in spite of his veto) has concluded to issue the State bonds asked for by the Pacific railroad. They will amount to nearly two millions of dollars. It isstated that the movement affords great pleasure in St. Louis and along the line of the roads in- terested in the decision. ANECDOTE oF FRANKLIN.—Un one Occasion, while Dr. Franklin was in the Legislature of Pennsylvania, he was busily engaged in some matter just as the chaplain was about to pray The preacher waited for the dovstor to cease his attention to the object of his pursuit and attend to him, but finally the preacher spoke and said, “If the Hon.
