The French papers have not, under the influence of the alliance, ceased to have their jokes upon Englishmen, and one of the drollest is told as follows, by tho Union Brctonue , from which we trans late it; Lord C , well known for his eccen tricities, went lately to the establishment of one of our most celebrated workers in fancy articles. “ I want you to make me,” said he, “ a snuff box, with a view of my chateau on the lid.” “Tt'is very easily done,” was the reply, “ if my lord will furnish me with the de sign.” “ I will; but I want also, at the en trance of my chateau, a niche in which there shall be a dog.” “ That, 100, shall be provided,” ans wered the workman. “ But I want also that some means should be contrived by which, as soon as any one looks at the dog, he shalLgo back into the niqh, and only reappear when he is no longer looked at.” The workman looked inquiringly, as if to ascertain whether his customer was not the victim of some mystification. Re-as sured by his examination', and, like a clever man, understanding how to take advantage of the affair, he said to the Englishman: “ What you ask of me is very hard to comply with ; such a snuff-box will be ve ry expensive; it will cost a thousand crowns.” “ Very well; I will pay you a thousand crowns.” “ Then, my lord, it shall be made accor ding to your wishes, and in a month I shall have the honor of delivering it to you.” A month later the workman presented himself to Lord C . “ My lord,” said the workman, “ here is your snuff-box.” Lord C took it, examined it, and said, “ That is'my with its tur rets, and there is a niche by the doorway. But I see no dog.” “ Bid not your lordship,” said the work man, “ say that you wished the dog to disappear when he was looked at ?” “ I did,” replied his lordship. “ And that he should appear when qo longer looked at ?” ' “ That is true also,” was the reply. “Well,” said tho workman, “ you are looking at it, and the dog has gone into the niche. Put the box into your pocket, and the dog will re-appear immediately.” Lord C —— reflected a moment, and then exclaimed, “ All right, all right,”— He put the box in his pocket, took out. of his pocket-book three bank-bills of a thou sand francs each, and handed them to the skillful workman. A Spirited Boy.—-A mile or so from town, a man met a boy on horseback, cry ing with cold. “ Why don’t you get off and lead the horse ?” said the man, “that’s the way to get warm.” “It’s ab-borrowed horse, and I’ll ride him if T freeze.” Hdcd Jfletrg. MI .11 OTHER. OR 1 how I loved her ! though my heais At times resisted her control; In every dearest wish and thought She reigned the idol of my soul. I grew beside her, year by year, Graceful, she saiii, and fair and tall Her wohla were to me sweet and dear, And memory’s leaf retains them all. Oh ! how I loved her / soft her smile Shone all along the flowery way O'er which I bounded on, the while, Thoughtless of death or of decay. Her bosom was my place of rest, Her arms my refuge sure and dear; Her voice couli) always soothe mo best, Her kiss could banish grief and fear. OR! how I loved her! heart to heart And hand to haud she bore me on, Guarding me from life’s every smart, UuUJ her owu youug life' was goue. Out day she drew me to her breast Her cheeks were white, her look was wild, Pale lips to mine she fondly pressed, And whispered, ‘*We must part, mj child 1” Her words went crashing through my brain, cut cleaving through my qniv’riug heart; And then with death in e\ciy vein, Throb d that dread sentence, ** Me must part.* 9 Oh! bitterest grief of childhood*? years! Oh! hour of blackness, wralb and death! Bitterly drenched and choked with tears, Wild with vain cries and pleading breath. My mother’s presence was to mo Like sunshine in a dreary land; W hat cooling water springs would bo To one on Africa burning sand. Oh! how I loved her! love her yet— Though from her gravt* a wanderer My mother I do not forget; Her love is still my guiding 1 long for her and love her now, Wlien childhood, youth and hope are fled, As when her kisses warmed my brow, As when she held my youthful head. And when the earth ts heaped above My head, and o’er my heart is piled, If spirits live and spirits love, My mother shall embrace her child; Three Persons Killed bj a Do*. A "French newspaper,! the Journal de Chartres , relates a terrible affair. As a. lit tle girl, ten years of agej was walking by the side of a road at Donneval, she was suddenly attacked by an enormous ijjastiff, a stranger to the village; and before her father, who was near, could arrive, the dog, throwing the child down, bit off her nose and tore the flesh from her cheeks, arms and other parts of Aer person. Dri ven away by the man, the dog, a little fur ther on, attacked a boy, and tore his face in a frightful manner. The animal next attacked in succession several dogs and bit them severely. It then'entered a wood.- near Tieuvicq, in which i woman was at work, and rushing on her,l threw her down and lacerated her dreadfully Tho flesh was torn from different parts of her, per son, leaving the bones bare, her scalp was d ra Kn e d» °ff; an d her nose [and cheeks were eaten. A man eoming >up-, the animal took to flight,'but afterwairds attacked, at Luthon, a workman, and hit him badly in the face and body. Next; the dog entered Authon, and rushing in succession on four children-—one the son of a physician na med Perier—tore the flesh from their fa ces and persons, and bit a woman and ser vant girl. The whole population of the town was plunged into consternation ; but as night Rad set in the dog disappeared.— The next morning a number of persons, armed with guns, forks and scythes, went in search of the animal, aiid having, after a while, found it, succeeded in shooting it dead. On examination out that the animal was not madjbut had a long sharp nail driven into its' nose; and the belief is that the pain which the nail cau sed, rendered him furious.) Of these ton ! persons attacked three ate already dead, ! and some of the others are so fearfully in- i jured that their recovery |s not probable. | Although the animal wap not mad, the j persons bitten have, by way of precaution,' j had their wounds cauterized, and the dogs I bitten have been killed. t®* In either 1845 or 1846, Henry Clay became embarrassed fo such an ex tent that ho had to mortgage Ashland.— In the meantime, a movement had been started in New Orleans by some of Mr. Clay’s friends, to pay his debts and relieve him from his embarrassments, and Mr. A. H. Trotter, the agent of’) the Northern Bank in New Orleans, was sent cast to confer with Mr. Clay’s friepds. The con sequence was that about §50,000 was sub scribed, and the Hon. Win. Bennington Avas sent to Kentucky with the money, and reached Lexington known to scarcely any person. He walked into the Northern Bank, and asked for Mr. Scbtt, the Cashier of the Bank, and upon being shown that gentleman, asked if there were not sever al notes of Mr. Clay’s that.were duo in a few days, and was answered that there were. Mr. Scott was requested to give the whole amount of Mr. (jlay’s indebted ness, which was done, and a draft on one of the New York banks wais handed him, .and Mr. Pennington left thq bank with all Mr. Clay’s notes paid. lh]a few days Mr. Clay came to town to arrange for a renew al of the notes, if possible,And was shown in tue side room of the bank. After sit ting a few minutes, he asked Mr, Scott if there could be any arrangement toTrun the notes for a longer time. Mr. Scott looked at Mr. Clay to see if he was jesting, and finding that he was not, thld him that a i gentleman from New Jersey tad called yesterday and paid all of his indebted ness.

The evolution of cream is faciliated by a rise and retarded by a de pression of temperature. IjLt the usual temperature of the dairy—|forty degrees of Fahrenheit—all tho creaiti will proba bly rise in thirty-six hours ;sut at seventy degrees it will perhaps ris| in half that time; and when the milk isfkepl near the freezing point, tho cream. jiill rise very slowly, because it becomes typlidified.
