THE II K ART OF MID LOTH AN. In the year 1?36. two smokers, of the names of Wilson and Robertson, iohhed the collector of customs at Ivirkaldv of a considerable sum of money, which w as the property of government. They were both taken, brought to trial, and condemned to death. The fate of these men was universall v pitied; but W ilson, by an act of extraordinary resolution, generosity and fidelity, excited

the general pympathy to ardent admiration, and fixed it solely on himself. The two criminals under entence of death were, accordingly to custom, carried on a Sunday after their condemnation, to join in the weekly public services of re

ligion. Four soldiers of the tow n guard of Edinburgh,were their conductors; and they cnterrd the church before the congregation had fully assembled, and before the commencement of the service. The prisoners were entrusted without fetters to the custody of their guard. In these circumstances, the church door being open, and the persons who were present not unfavorably disposed to

The Mermaid. It was mentioned in all the Journals, sometime ago, that a mermaid caught in the Iudiaif S;jas, had been brought to England. The creature so described is now in the museum of Surgeon's Hall, London. It is about 8 feet in length, and bears a strong res--!i)biance to the common eal. There is also a young female, of the species, in the same place. They belong to the class of Mamilla ; the fins terminate (internally) in a structure like the human hand; the breasts of the female are very prominent; aud in suckling its young, not only this appearance but their situation on the body, must cause that extraordinary phenomenon which has led to the popular belief. In other respects, the face is f;;r from looking like that F

An Irish gentleman in company, a few nights ago, seeing that the lights w ere so dim as only to render the dark ness visible, called out lustily : Here, waiter, let me have a couple of daycent candles, just that I may see how theso .urn." An Irish officer of dragoons on hearing that his mother had been married since he left home, exclaimed, " By St. Pat rick I hope she wont have a n older than me, lor if she has, 1 shall be out of thp estate
