CHIT CHAT. A Whig Chancellor has been made at the expeuse of three coronets. Considering that she is third on the list, that her husband is still Attorney-General, and what he has exchanged, the title of Lady Camp- bell should have been Lady Bar-ter. Lord Mulgr.tve has presented Mr Power, the actor, with a gold stiutt-box-a friend at a pinch is a friend in- deed. A box is clso in preparation from the same quarter, for Mr O Connell; but this is sending coals to Newcastle, if, as report says, it is to be filled with "Irish blackguard.The Indian jugglers, who exhibit such extraordinary feats with swords, cups, and bal's, depend upon the rhythm of tIe movement I for the success of the r pertormar.ee.

A singular discovery took place, a day or two ago, near Sl. Omer. As four men were ploughing they found a great number of fossil bones of the caitiel aiid dromedary-evei-al are of extraor(iiiiiii-y dimensions, and appear to liavg belonged to a species which has long; become extinct. The manufac- ture of sugar from beet-root is rapidly increasing in France: at least ten fold within the last seven years. The celebrated Mrs Fry, who has so laudably exerted herself herself to improve the morals of our sailors, has extended her philanthropy to the men employed in the coast guard. Each station in the three kingdoms has been furnished, at her expense, with a library for the use of the crew of the station, consisting of from fifty to sixty volumes of cheap works, niostly of a moral and religious tendency, but likewise including some well-condensed accounts of foreig-n countries, voyages, travels, &c. 1 he Marquis de Mirabeau is related to have said of him- self "I am thought to be in a passion when I am only in a pet." With how niaiiy iri-itable people is this the case ? and how many private quarrels might be avoided would mankind look more charitably on each other's infirmities. The Countess Dow- ager of Guildford has left Putney, and is at present residing at the St. James's Hotel, in order to have the advanlage of medical consultation, her Ladyship having having been in delicate health ever since the melancholy demise of her daughter, the Lady G'eor- gina North.

We understand that Lord Brougham is suffer- ing under a painful complaint, to which he has long been subject. It was generally reported that his Lordship's disorder was Div-pFpys_ i(!. Tom- kins, however, ill or well, must have his joke; and it is confidently reported, that the moment he heard of Lord Cottenham's appo ntment as Chan- cellor, he wrote an anti-dated letter to Lord Melbourne, begging the Premier lo assure himself of every friendly co operation in his power short of accepiing the GreatSeal—his health rendering that sacrifice wholly out of the question.

This species, hitherto iiilkiiowii in these latitiides, is distinguishable from the former by having a lighter tint, and by not evincing so decided a taste for rice, curry, and Hudson's pale ale. As I have had only a passing glimpse of one specimen belong- ing to this variety, my observations on it (1 confess) want accuracy and confirmation. It appeared to me, to have a long melancholy howl, always ending with the words, despotism, mimopo'y, aboli- tion of charter, and hundred million of fellow sub- jects. It is of a migratory disposition. 3. V. f/rypha. The griffin. This is the most amusing species, though rather troublesome. It is constantly la ling from the rigging, and making all sorts ot blunders. It eats its rice with a knife, dnnks strong wine with its curry, swallows beer after sweetmeats, and lays in a store of tallow candles for a voyage to the torrid zone. But, really, 1 must wait for some cooler day be- ore I can finish my catalouge: besides, I fear I am ecotning too deeply scientitical to be understood by merely popular readers SlIffice it to add, under the several heads of ichthyology, mazology, meteor- ology, and geology, that there is nothing "Q rare, sea, as fresh tish-nothing so common as salt pork-nothing so ennuyant as a foul wind-and nothing a thousandth part so delightful as the first sightot land, though only dimly discernible amidst the clouds in the horizon. And, talking of land, reminds me that I should tell you what we saw at the Cape. It was a delightful morning, when, after nine weeks tossing in all directions but the right one, we found ourselves standing, with a light breeze, under an easy press of canvas, into Table Bay. Uver our heads hung the grey rugged mountain,' descending, with its precipitous, rocky sides, almost to the water's edge. Before us lay Cape own, still slumbering in the early dawn,—while all around the little tiny waves danced and sparkled and ,Iaddened in the morningsun, reflect- "ig. lts rays as from countless liquid mirrors, amidst which our good ship seemed to cleave her way glorious and graceful— to the breeze she unbosomed her sail, Tt"1' ?rPe,lnon streamed onwards,like hope, in the gale 'e winds earnc around her, in murmur and song, the surges rejoiced as they bore her along And now I think that is a veri- nice little piece of R.r,a-.Ni-tildai.,h description. But" mere descrip- tion is, generally, mere nonsense" (and, by the way, that is one of the few things worth quoting, that ever carrie from the pen of Kirke White,)—I bliall„ therefore, beg of you to suppose that I liave been iniaplures with the view,—that, in the meantime, the ship has swept round the point on which stands the light-house, and dropped her anchor about two miles^ofi theshore—and that, having satisfied myself that Cape Town, from its low situation, produces but little effect when seen from sea, 1 had determined on a nearer inspection by land, and, for this pur- pose, had engaged a boat to take me to the jetty. Cape Town contains about thirty thousand inha- bitants. It lies on the low sandy land between the sea and the Table Mountain, which, at different parts of the town, has the appearance of hangiug" 80 direct'y over it, that you can almost fancy a stone, thrown from its top, would light in the centre of the principal square. The streets are laid out. as might be expected in a Dutch built town, with the utmost regularity, cutting one anoiherat right angles. The Heeregracht,.wnich is the principal, is a very hand- some line of street, having along its centre, a streamlet, bordered, on either side, by a row ot trees, which add greatly to its beauty, but have this incon- venience, that they give shelter to swarms of mu«. quitoes, which issue from thorn at night in such numbers, that, as Harry Erskine said of fleas at Stony Stratford, if they were onlv unanimous they might have pulled me out of bed." III this street I took up my residence, in a boarding-house, kept by a Dutch family, where I found every comfoit and convenience, on terms sufficiently moderate. Having arranged about my billet, my next cftie, after looking at the government house, and some ot the principal buildings, was to inquire for the buil,iiii- museum, which I found pleasantly situated at the top of the town, with a handsome garden in its rear, con- taining sundry living animals. The museum had, formerly, been supported by a g>"ant from Sovern- ittent the Collection is now in the hands of a French bird-and-beast-stutfer whose only object is to make money.

CONTEMPORARY PRESS. (From the Morning Post.) We must now turn to a far different but not less gratifying scene—the reception of Mr O'Connell at Liverpool, where the honor of a public dinner had bez-i) de,-i-eef] t,) Iiiii) bv a -few Of the new in(,tni)ers of the Town Council, and a congenial rabble of at' ti a colig Radical* and Irish Papists Mr O Connell, elated with the recent vociferations of the Dublin and Liverpool mobs, was in all evil hour beguiled into the imprudence of obtruding himself into decent company, and experienced accordingly the proper fitte ot an unwelcome and disreputable intruder. The description w hich has been given us of the re- ception, at the Town Hall and the Newsroom, of Lord Melbourne's pa'ron and Mr Raphael's cheat is so instructive and amusing that we cannot resist the teiiii)taii,,ii of ii-aiisci-il)iiiK it On arriving at the Town Hall (says our faithful and accurate correspondent) Mr O Council and half- a-dozen of the more re-peotable portion of his friends entered but to. the Mayor was not to be found. He, forsooth, did uot think so highly of Mr O'Con- nell as even to leave his counting-house, which is not one minute's walk from the Lxchange; and one of the constables in attendance was forthwith des- patched by Mr Rathboue to summon his Worship to an audieucc with Daniel. In a few minutes tile Mayor arrived, and was introduced by the same Mr Raihbone, BO frequently mentioned, to O Connell but with what cordiality he received him I leave you to guess when I tell you that scarcely a wqrd was interchanged, and that the usual complimentary custom of shaking hands was, on this occasion, dis- pensed with. Yes, to the honor of .Air tVm. Wallace Currie, the first Whig Mayor of Liverpool under the new system, be it mentioned, that he refused to ideutify himself with the demagogue so far even as to shake hands with him. In a few minutes Mr O'Conuell, accompanied by half-a-dozen of his sup- porters, leaving the Mayor in the room, quitted the Town ti,ill by a door at the opposite end of the building to which he entered, and, crossing, the Exchange, without exciting any attention, proceeded to the Newsroom, which was crowded to excess, it being 'Change hour, by a far ditret-eiit cliss of per- sons to that which appeared before the Adelphi Hotel, The Committee ot the Newsroom, in accor- dance with a resolutioll adopted some time ago, wrote to the Dinner Committee requesting that, if Mr O'Conuell should be brought into the rooms, he should not be allowed to ofier any observations, or make any speech, while there. However, this pre- caution was needless, as will be seen by and by. No sooner had the party fairly entered the buildiug than the most deafening disapprobation assailed them from almost every part of it. Cries of 'Carlow, Carlo" I lt,,IPII&,Cll %I'Iiei-e is the beg-giu:box 1: 'Do you expect to raise any rint in I,ivei-i,ooil I &c., were loud and long-continued. O'Connell, setting at defiance the intimation sent in the morning to his Committee, attempted to deliver all oration, but such was the overwhelming disapprobation with which he was assailed that, although the writer utood elose to him, uot one word cou d be heard. The cries alld to Ili7, execrations increased to a degree which baffles de- scription, and a rush was at length made towards that part of the room where O'Connell was standing, when he, together with his clique, were literally pushed, I may say kicked, out of ihe place. A", SOUII as they were turned out, the cheering which followed was of the most cut nusiasl ic kind. The utmost jov was manifested. (lhree cheers were propot-ed and y given for the Duke of Wellington, Sir Hubert Peel, Lord Smdon, Sir James Graham, aud Stiiiiley aild three groans followed for the liig Beggarniau and his tail in Liverpool. O'Co.- nell is the only public man who, upon visiting the magnificent Exchange in Liverpool, was ever driven from it by public excration. Neverwasuncha scene witnessed within I (III wallsofthat building. (From the Evening Mail.) We are not at all surprised to find that the tone of the Ministerial scribes, relative 10 the Liverpool and Iiirmingham celebration.of the arrival of the K:ng of the liegga/.v, is any thing btlt iriuaqiliaut, tor as- suredly thev and their masters have great cause to be sorely mortified at the result.

Moreover, both the Bcggarman and these honest "public in- structors" are silent as to the rather material fact, that not even at those meetings did he get "the leave" of which lie speaks, without first showing his hearers ihe shallow nhuffle he was meditating, by plainly and positively assuring them that he was convinced JUSTICK never CUULD be done to Ireland without a DOMESTIC LKGISLATURK.

If there be any rational being who really believes him when he says that he has any other object in view, such an one might as reasonably give credit to a game- ster who, in demanding to have dealt to him as many of the winning curds as would give him the game, should protest that he had not the least inten- tion ofnsillg them for that purpose. (From the llecord.) Popery is described in Scriptnreas 46 the Mystery of Iniquity." The depths of its "iniquity'* ure "mysterious" from tlieii- darkness and profundity. They are not quickly or easily sounded. Some things it, this world, which at first sight present a most unfavourable appearance, upon being more thoroughly exemined show more internal soundness, or a less amount of evil, than first appearances indi- cated. But as it regards the Papacy, which is now apparently on the high road to obtain a complete aa. cendaney in Ireland, and which is pushing itself forward into notice with almost preternatural zeal through every district and city of Great Britain, the more it is examilled--the more it is seen what this ancient house of evil does in the dark, in the secret chambers of her imag-ery- the more we believe, s: all, we hear again and again the words of the Prophet applied to h,. t- 'Itirti thee yet again, alld thou shalt ee greater ahumillatioi¡s than tlll'se." It is with extreme reluctance lhat we insert to-day, in another part of the paper, extracts from a pam- phlet, published by one of the most excellent Cler- gymen of Ireland, illustrative of pa-rt of the studies prosecuted at Maynooih College by the future re- ligious guides of the Roman Catholic body. Subjects trenching upon indelicacy we shrink from ap- proaching. here we have a choice of difficulties between bringing under the iiotif-e of oui- i-eiideis a subject which absolutely disgusts ourselves, or retraining from bringing facts under public observa- tion, which, we are persuaded, will rouse many slumbering and latiludinarian men to the vast evil which is perpetrated by not repudiating the Papacy, and giving it every opposition, consistent with fztirtiess aiii ti-titil. We must displease ourselves, and it may be some of our readers, in order, through the blessing of God, that truth may be exhibited, and a due horror spread through the length and breadth of !he land of the practices of the c, Mystery of Iiiiquity." The publicity given to Dens' Theology was a blow tedt by the Papacy to the heart. But tier practiced disciples sought to heal the wound, by unblushingly declaring that the work, circulated by t-housands among the Papal priests, used as the text-book at the conferences of the Clergy, all additional volume to which had been prepared under the immediate sanction of Archbishop Murray, and the whole de- dicated, by permission, to this smooth dignitary, was nothing better than "a musty record." Here, how- ever, there can be no mistake. Here is the course of instruction set forth to the students of Ililyflootll, under the immediate Mallction of the polite and ele- gaiit Dr. Murray, as well as of the Popish hierarchy in Ireland, at large and let it be observed, not only of the students of Maynooth, but by immediate and undeniable inference, of the students in general of the Papacy in Britaill as iu Ireland, in present, as in past times. In the accompanying article, we have suppressed much of what appears on the subject in the pamphlet. The work itself (it costs only (id.) we strongly re- cOlllmelld to the perusal of our friends. But, if we mistake not, we have allowed enough to appear to excite the horror of every decent, not to talk of de- licate, or well-regulated mind, and to exasperate the desire in all, to spurn from them the polluting and degrading superstition. In our next we intend to give additional extracts from the pamphtet,exhibit- ing the morality taught by Popery on the subject of theft and on that occasion we shall suggest what we consider to be the d uty Christisiii community in regard to this College of Maynooth, in which- instruction so abominable is given, by means of money drawn trorn the pockets of this Pro- testant aud Christian community. The following case ii put and considered, p. 168— A woman or a girl, overpowered by such great modesty that she is unable to overcome it so as to confess certain sins viva voce, hands lo the confessor sitting in the t ibunal a paper to read, in which they are written down, saying with her voice—'I accuse myself as being uilty, of all the sins which you may read written in this paper.' All author worihy of credit has asserted tinn this is not a fictitious case and it may occm again. Many theologians, eveu iu this case, pronounce !hat a confession made in writing is null, as they are of opinion that this modesty is altogether all etrthly thing (prosus hn- maiium), and, however great it may be, is to be over- come by the penitent, and tha absolution is tobede- nied to any one who is unwilling to overcome it. On he COlli ntry, others f ol owing Melchior Cano, a man certainly ot acute judgment, and of the greatest pru- dence, think lha', taking into accoullt the weakness of the sex, this modesty itiay be so vivid in sot-e women or gir;s, that they cannot be indllced t,) over- come it and e hat is more, they observe that this modesty may at times be excited to this gieat degree by reas,)ii of* t lie iii,)i,e vi, if i,),, wilict, they have of the baseness and wickedness of their offence. Whence they infer that these persons, who are truly deserving ol pity, may iu this case not be considered guilty at least of a great sin, and therefore in such (,Iitlictilties it may be allowed them as all itidu'getice to declare those sins in icrithig, which it appears to them so grevious, so burdensome, and almost im- possible to express riva voce." Now observe how this last resource of female modesty is dealt with in the Divinity school of Maynooth — H We are of opinion that everything may be safely mang-cd by adopting this middle plan namely, that the confessor should receive Ihe written declaration of sins, read it, and afterwards prudently question the penitent concerning them, whose answer in the words yes or no, should be received as a true accu- sation ot herself made i-ira roe-e as indeed is the case in common confessions, when the priest ques- tions the penitent whether she has committed certain sins. Doubtless it is not to be credited that a wo- man or irl, however modest she may be supposed, would 1101 accede to this condition, which the coii- tessoi will make as easy as he can by the dexterity 01. Ills questions.

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION OF DRUNKARDS. (From the New York Courier.) We feel it incumbent on us to exhort every toper from Maine to Mississippi to insure himself against fire. They are, all and singular, as combustible as a powder-house, and as liable, every moment of tli(-ir lives, to blow t)P._ It is fearful to contem- plate the hazard at which they hold possession of their tenement of clay. They all of them think, we dare say, that they are as safe against confla- gration as so many houses built of asbestos -if they did not, it would be impossible for them to stow away such daily quantities of kindling stuff; but it is our duty to tell them that a young gentle- man at South Berwick (Maine), Mr J. C. Hanson, a Student of medicine, has lately ascertained that a toper's blood burns like so much tinder, and that it only depends upon the contingency of his coming in contact with some material of ignition whether he shall goon in drowning himself in apple brandy or blow up like a cellar stored with Bordeaux brandy on the 16th of December, in South-street 1 Every body knows that the tipler has frequently gone off by spontaneous combustion, but we are not certain that it has ever before been known that the catastrophe happens by the communication of an accidental spark to the sanguiferous ducts. If, however, we are to believe the statement made in Maine—and it seems to be sufficiently authenti- cated—a drunkard's blood is as easily ignited as so much New York gas. (It burns a great deal better.) And every fellow who goes home tipsy, runs as much risk of conflagration as a fireman, clothed in cotton, who ventures into the fourth story of a burning building Let the topers look to it. They are every soul of them moving magazines of salt- petre! The experiment to which we have alluded as having been made by Mr Hanson, took place recently. A drunken old wretch, who had drunk two gallons of rum in the five preceding days, came staggering into the office where Mr H. was a stu- dent. The young gentlemen told him he was in danger of expJodincr bv spontaneous combustion, and persuaded him to be'bled, in order to avoid such a tragedy. He was bled, and a lighted match being applied, the blood burntblue, and continued to burn freely for 30 seconds. Mr Hanson winds up his account by the following statement and certifi- cate:— ° ''The above experiment, which resulted in a phenomenon thus brilliant, and which I had never noticed either by observation or in authors, was not only witnessed by myself, and the subject of it, who sat mute, astounded, and in breathless silence but by several respectable gentlemen, together with a worthy and respected physician, my tutor, who were present, and who in the subjoined certificate vouch for the authenticity of the fact I now submit to the public. JACOB C. HANSON. To the Public—We, the undersigned, residents of South Berwick, do hereby certify that we were present and witnessed the experiment above described, CHAHI.E8 TRAFTOB, CHAHI.E8 TRAFTOR, JOHN G.

A DINNER AT ALGIERS. The guests were Colonel Maret, two other French- men, and myself- Our host (Ben Omar, the ex Bey of Titeri), placed me on an ottoman, and taking a few whiffs of a long pipe, handed it to me moist from his own lips, as the greatest respect that can be shown to a stranger- At last the dinner table was brought in. or rather a large round tin tray, which was placed on a slight elevation from the floor. In the midst of it was a bowl ot exquisite rice soup, and each of us havingsquatted hiinselfcross-Iegged on a low cushion, like so many tailors, we were helped to a plateful of soup a piece, and we fed ourselves with wooden spoons. The plates were tine English porcelain. Before each of us was placed a long napkin, which our host told me was of Smyrna cloth. Next came a large broiled fish, deliciously flavoured and stuffed with pudding; it was sent round, and everyone clutched a portion of it with his fingers and thumb. By my faith, I thought, on tasting this regale, lor aught that the French can do in civilizing African cookery, they may as well stay at home. I was so pleased with the tish, that I desired to be helped a second time from it, whereupon the ex-liey, with euemplary politeness, grasped a handful of it and laid it on my plate. Presently we had roasted fowls, flanked by some savoury dishes of vegetables, well soused with oil, and by and by followed cousconsou. The pullets were tore aisunder by strength of hand, but with ineffable delicacy. Meanwhile my heart was yearn- ing after the rich legumes that were floating in gravy, as golden bright as the clouds of a summer sunset. There was no spoon, and so I poured a part of the vegetables on my plate, and by the aid of a piece of bread, and my spoonless fingers, whipped consider- able portions into my mouth. Ben Omar, who was attentive to us all, but particularly to his English guest, pressed me frequently. 1 asked him if it was a custom in the better ° society of this country to press the stranger to his food. Mot at all," he said. but I only recommend our ragouts to you as the pride of our cuisine. The desert was of a piece with the dinner, presenting a vast variety of fruits both fresh and contacted. Weiiiidnowspootis of tortoise shell, with hand'es made either entirely of sea-horse tooth, or of ivory, with amber tops. The porcelain was very rich, and Ben Omar told me to my surprise that it came, like the dinner plates, all from England. After washing our hands, we had pipes and coffee, with silvet- wine etips support- ing the English ones. We sat conversing till ten o'clock. I need not tell you that we had no wine either at or after dinner; aud the want of that com- fort, you know, is apt to dispose an English mind ta pensiveness after a hearty meal.-Campbelts Let- tersfiotit Algiers in the Neiv Monthly.

DISCOVERY OF GOLD COIN. The following strange discovery on Monday 51."11., night has caused no small degree of sensation in Stanmore :-It appears that on the afternoon of the above day a labouring man was hedging in a field at the rear of he parsonage-house, occupied by the Rev. A. R. Chauval, when he picked up a few gold coins which had been deposited at a few inches only below the surface of the earth. He then, elated with hiti good luck, made a further diligent search, and in less than ten minutes found about 400 iyiore, consisting of Louis d'Ors, Napo'eons, and Portuguese pieces, tailed Johalllles. HavlIIg performed his day's work, lie, as usual, repaired home; but as silence under such fortunate circumstances was not to be expected, the news quickly got circulation and at an eurlyhour on the following morningthirty- one more labourers, in the hope of similarly enrich- illg themselves, repaired, with pickaxes, shovels, &c. to the spot, and. after very little labour, pos- sessed themselves of a farther supply of the like coins, which were enclosed in a square tin box, 320 in number. Au equal division of the treasure having been made, the pariy left the ground, and on the same afternoon many other persons commenced a search, which they kept up for two or three hours, but their efforts proved fruitless. The money is supposed to have been deposited a few years ago by au eccentric foreign gentleman, who dwelt near the parsonage for a short period, and then wellt abroad since which time no tidings of him have been gained A quantity of the gold has already found its way into the hands of a bu'lion-dealer in the city, by whom it was purchased of one or more of the sud- denly-enriched finders. (Another Arcourd flom the Standard.J The following is a more correct account of this extraordinary attair than that publishedyesterday: — 011 Saturday last the coachman and gardener of Mr Cheoval, the Rector of Stanmore, while levelling a hedge-baii|{ on the glebe land, at a place called Old Church, IIfar the foot of Stanmore Hill, turned up several pieces of go'd coin. Instead of informing their master, they kept the knowledge of it to them- "elves till the evening, when the gardener, it i. said, got drunk iu a pul>lic house, and informed his companions of his good fortune. It uas then agreed amongst them that a treasure, which lot- many yeilrs was believed to be concealed somewhere about the 6pot, was found. The story runs, that thirteen yeais ago a foreigner, from London, arrived at Stanmore, aud for a fortnight diligently searched, with the assistance of four men, the banks of all adjoining field, but uusucce-siull.v, and then departed in great distress of mind. lie accused a tanner, living near, of having found it; and pei.iaps th s, having been the general belief, "'ay account tor uo other treasure- seeker having made the attempt. This conjecture proved to be correct, tor, having agreed to com- mence a search cill-ly 011 the following- morning, they discovered, in a very short time, not far from the surface, au iron dies', an old tea-caddy, and a coach-'amp, all tout'.ining gold coin, of the French, American, Spanish, an< oituguese currency, some of it bearing the date o 18. It js believed, from all that can be learned^ on the subject, that the amount was upwards of 0Z; but as all the popu- lation of Stanmore had collected in consequence of the gardener's fo!Iy'» a f.'J11 a' sc''amblc took place, by men, women, and ciii (ireit tile lJIall who fOlllld the iron chest having defended his treasure from the general attack made upon its but distributing to all present a share. The amount secured by Mr Choeval's senallts is said to have been X500, and this, of course, when »e at last became aware of what had occiii red, was taken bom them. Attempts have been made to iccover more of it from the finders, but as they had found ready purchasers for their treasure, the attempt has not succeeded.

EXPEDITION CAPTAIN J. C. Ross.— Mr Thomas Thompson, solicitor, of this place, received on Sunday last a letter from Captain J. C. Ross, dated his Majesty s ship Cove, Orkney Islands, Longhope, Jan. 10, 183G, in which he says, "All's well; we most fortunately arrived here in time to escape a strongs. W. gale that has con- tinued all this day, and now shows such strong symptoms of abating, that I hope to be off to-mor- row at daylight. I have obtained here some most valuable information respecting the ships that are still absent." In a postscript be says, "Jan. 11, 8 a. m, Our anchor is weighed, and we are fairly off with a fine favourable east breeze.Ifull Advertiser of Friday. A gentleman of Suffolk being on all excursion with his friend, and having a Newfoundland dog of the party, he soon became the subject of conver- sation when the master, after a warm eulogium upon his perfect ions,.as-silred his companion that he would, upon receiving the order, return, and fetch any article he should leave behind, from any dis- tance. To confirm this assertion,a marked shilling was put under a large .square stone by the side of the road,—being first shown to the dog. The gen- tleman then rode for three miles, when the dog received his signal from the master to return for the shilling he had seen put under the stone. The dog turned back, the gentleman rode on and reached home, but, to their surprise and disappointment, the hitherto faithful messenger did not return during the day. It afterwards appeared that he had gone to the place where the shillinS was deposited, but the stone being too large for his strength to remove, he had staid howling at the place, till two horse- men, riding by, and°attracted by his seeming dis tress, stopped lo look at him. when one ot them alighted,removed thestone, and seeingthe shilling, put it into his pocket, not at the time conceiving it to be the object of the dog's search. I he dog fol- lowed their horses for twenty miles, remained un- disturbed in the room where they slipped, followed the chambermaid into the bed cliaiiiber,and secreted himself under one of the bed, he possessor of the shilling hung his breeches upon a nail by the bed-side; but when the travelers were both asleep, the dog took them «.n his mouth, and, leaping out of the window, whic ) was e t open on account of the sultry heat, reached the house of his master at four o'clock in 'he moving, wtth the prize he had made free with, in le pocket of which were found a watch and money, hat were returned upon being advertise > Ien le whole mystery was mutually unravel e o le admira- tion of all the parties."—-Sporfs'nan s Annual. COLLIERY EXPLOSION. — AW ^"PLOSION occurred in the celebrated Het on o^ ieiy, near Houghton-le-Spring, on Thursday e nnight, by which 16 unfortunate human bemgs lost their lives, and five others were so dreadfully scorched, as to afford but faint hopes ot recovery. L pwards of 100 person,4 were employed in the pit at the time the explosion occurred, but owing to the accident being confined to one of the workings, name y, the Downs Pitt, the number of victims was less than might have been expected.

O'CONNEL L'S RECEPTION AT LIVERPOOL (From ihe Standard.) Extract of a letter from Liverpool, dated Jan. 27. T11P insult offered to our town by the O'Conuell dinner has been met on our Exchange to-day with its due reward. The stain is wiped from our merchants.

Elated by the reception he there met with he llattei ed himself that he should meet with a similar gieeting from the merchants and gentlemen ot the town, and,accordingly, about three o'clock, accompanied by Mr Rathboue, one of the newly-made haild of m us c, and a largemob, he proceeded to the Exchange Newsroom. Nosooner had he got wit nn the walls of the building, which was crowded with gentlemen, than the cry of 'turn him out' r"oUllded 11'011\ 011(,' t'lId of the room to the' other.
