MISCELLANY.
' SELECTED. THE FRENCHMAN'S DOG. One day, as alone in the steam boat I sat, Without very well knowing what to be at, I caressed a young dog that, in frolicksome play, Would fiy here and there, and my whistle obey. Very near sat a Frenchman, who watched the dog too, And seemed very well pleased as we intimate grew; I asked of the man, if the puppy were bis. With a smile and a bow, be said, 'yes, sare, it is, And my leetla dog, sare, be i3 very polite; He never do nothing but just what is right. On yesterday, sare, I was in much alarm, And very much fearful he come to some harm; A fren who was with me say to me "with awe,
That man you see walking hare rone from his law, Keep your leetla dog cut of his way, if you can, For they say he have shoot out the brain of his fren.' Up and down the man walk, and my leetla dog too Up and down would walk with him, for all 1 could do, When, ah sare, my blood it ran cold as a frog, As I saw when he turn that he trod en my dog; Get out my way,' cry the man with a frown, Jjump on my feet, tut my fren held me down. Up and down the same would my leetla dog go, When I hear by the cry he was trod 0:1 the toe. 4You rogue, you black villain get out of de boat,
Get out of my way or I'll shoot out your gote-' Ju9t like a lion, broke out from his cage, I jump on my feet. I feel such a rage; 'Sare,' I say, 'sare, it i3 my opinvone, That any raan here, who have from his law rone, And have shoot out the brain of his very best Will shoot out another as fast as he can; fren, And the man who will swear, and call villain and rogue, Will not acrupelJe to shoot out the gote of my

A Character. Died, in Gramiile, on Saturday night week, in the seventy-second year of his age, little Jemmy Dixson; who saw as much pleasure, created as much mirth, drank as much liquor, and worked less, than any white man in this countrv ever did, who had the free

Curious Wager. A gentleman lately made a bet that he would cause all the bells of a well frequented tavern in Glasgow to ring at same period, without touching one of them, or even leaving the room. This he accomplished by turning the stop-cock of the main gas pipe, and involving the whole of the inmates in instant darkness. In a short period the clangor of bells run from
every room and box in the house, which

. Don't le discouraged, if, in the outset of
life, things do not go on smoothly. It seldom happens that the hope9 ws cherish of the future are realized. The path of life, in the prospect, appears emocth and level enough; but when we come to travel it, we find it all up bill, and generally rough enough. The journey is a laborious one, and whether poor or wealthy, high cr low, we shall find it so to our disappoint
ment, if we have built upon aoy other calculation. To endure what is to be endured, with as much cheerfulness as possible, and to elbow our v;sy as easily as we can through the great crowd, hoping for life, yet striving much, is perhaps the true plan. But Dcn't ha discouraged, if occasionally you
slip down by the way, and your neighbors tread
over you a little; in other words, don't let aitherebv
failure or two dishearten you; accideot3 will
happen; miscalculations will sometimes be made; things will often turn out different from our expectations, and we may be sufferers. It 13 worth while to remember that fortune is like
A little bit of Caution. Patrick Saul, a good humored looking
Irishman, was charged with maliciously throwing a boy into a deep well; with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. "m Robert Hemmit, the boy alluded to was crossing a field at Walham green, when he met the prisoner, who asked him to fetch him half a pint of porter,
and, belore he could reply, took him up i i.t ... ...
in ins arms and threw him into a well, m
which there were seven feet depth of water. Having thrown him in, he walk
ed leisurely away, and had he not been
fortunate enough at the hrst rising to
catch hold of the curb of the well, he-
must ccrtanly have been drowned.
Honest Patrick said he had no intention of injuring the boy; and he denied that he walked away from the well after having thrown him into it. t;I only wanted to give him a dip.j'our honor, by way of a little bit of caution; bekase he is always tazing me about mv country and-my

and I can't get any pace for him at all, vour honor." The lad denied having insulted him in any way, but the magistrate did not appear to give much credit to this denial.
He, however, asked the prisoner how he could think of adopting such a strangely violent mode of punishing the boy, as throwing him into the water?

Reformation of the time?. Justice. There are some amusing stories told about the mode of bringing justice home to every man's door, in the country. A few years since, it is said no man was competent to discharge the duties of justice of the peace in certain part? of our country, unless he was first rate
at hsty culls. Almost every law-suit terminated in a battle, either with the justice or between the parties, and not unfrequently the throne ofjustice was overthrown, and her representative thrown out of doors with a pair of black eyes. A cause had been heard by one of our squires, who concluded to give justice contrary to the wishes of one of the parties; this, as usual occasioned a row and a fight. The dissatisfied Miitor turned the justice of the room, locked the door an him, and taking the vacant seat of the
justice, very deliberately entered judg
ment in his favor. e have all heard of
