On Tuesday he removed eighty-five to another corn paitinent of the spring, and to-day he removed thirty-one more, which had hatched within twenty-four hours. They came Into the world provisioned with a month's rations, In the shape of the yolk of the egg which is attached to them. They were not injured by their journey from the British Pro vinces.” The land-locked salmon, says the Boston Advertiser, which are found, we believe in only two or three rivers on the continent, have no equal as a game fish,- except the, great salmon. They are found in perfection in the Grand Lake stream, which is a connecting link in the chain of lakes in which the St. Croix river rises. Their average weight is a little less than three pounds, and they give rare sport to the disciple of old Izaak Walton, who cares to go so far as the eastern boundary of Maine. If they can be domesticated In our rivers, as good authorities believe, it will give a new pleasure to many au honest an• gler. Fashions In Australia. The Melbourne papers publish elabor ate accounts of a fancy ball recently given by the Mayor of Melbourne to Sir Henry Manners Sutton, the Gover nor of Victoria, Lady Manners Sutton and family, and about fifteen hundred of the fashionable people of the city. Some idea of the wealth and splendor in that colony may be formed from a description of the dresses worn on that occasion by some of the ladies. Mrs. Gurner, as Seika, wore a petticoat of amber cashmere, enriched with silver lace, a crimson velvet bodice with a gold circle'round the waist, from which depended diamonds, emeralds and to pazas; over the bodice was a royal blue satin robe trimmed with deep gold lace; the head dress was a gold diadem with a cluster of topazas in the centre, sur mounted by a bird of paradise; a neck lace of jewels was worn to match the circlet. Mrs. Butters, as tile Press, wore a white satin dress, on which were print ed the first pages of all the Melbourne newspapers and periodicals, including that of au illustrated journal with a portrait of the Governor. In her hand she carried a gold model of a printing press, from which were struck off In the room some lines from Byron's " Lara." Miss Carter, as the Goddess of Music, wore a blue satin dress, a tulle skirt, circled at the waist by a band of umber satin, on which were printed bars of music. 'file bodice was of fluted black velvet, displaying musical characters. On her dress hung a golden lyre, and her head was adorned with a gold coro net. A great number of ladies wore golden and jeweled diadems. The dresses of the gentlemen were equally gorgeous and singular. A Row Among the Dead Languages. Several of the newspapers having perpetrated jokes on the travels and exploits of "Sic Transit" whom "nihil lit" and "noctcB" head off, the Yale Guarani retorts as follows: "On ‘iinton' sculls! You 'claim/um' sculls! He didn't either. 'Sic Transit' drove a' a pour tandem temo Vcr' from the eastward.. He is visiting his 'dunk' Mrs. 'Die Terra' in this city, and will stay till 'Littera.' Or. Dignos, the 'Terris' (Terrys), likewise 'et super' with us last evening. He 'eta bell pi.' The pugilist also 'cunt' with him and 'lamb da' man badly in the street; he 'CO iS 710S' off; and 'nocteni fiat 11,171Cr i Hounder." A New Way to Raise the Wind. A few days since the inhabitants of a town on the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad, not far from Erie city, were startled by the announcement that on the following night a learned gentleman would give a grand ex hibition in the public hail, in which he would show the complete control he exer cised over the feline and canine family by making a number of cuts and dogs do every thing he desired of them. He requested the people to bring their own " household pets." A very large audience, made up of bipeds and quadrupeds in about equal proportion, assembled and waited patiently before a green curtain till nine o'clock, when it was discovered that the stage was empty and that the treasurer, doorkeeper and lecturer —if there was any such person—had left with the admission proceeds. On Friday night John S. Leathers, a member of a family well known to our police authorities, was found dead in his back yard in Screamersville. His death was caused by a bullet wound in the left breast, but no further information was elicited by the coroner's jury, which re turned a verdict of "came to his death at the hands of some person unknown:" Sus picion, however, points to a soldier with whom Leathers had a difficulty some mouths ago, and also one on the night of the murder. L.'s brother was some time ago killed in the Caine house, and his brother-in-law at another time, in the ad joining building, and the last victim is the third member of his family who has been murdered within a few yards of the same spot.—Richmond Fires During ISU6 During December there were in the United States 60 large fires, in which the aggregate loss of properly was $6,1335,000. This is it greater loss than occurred in any month since July, when there were 36 tires and a destruction of property valued at $14,705,000. For the year 1863 the entire number of large tires reported was 501, and the total loss of property $193,410,000, as com pared with :S5l large tires and a loss of property valued at $13,139,000 during 15135. The losses tor 1919 3 by tires in the United States have been greater than for any pre vious year, the total for the last twelve years being $1 0,908,000, a yearly average of $23,416,500. The losses for 1666, it will thus be seen, are nearly three times the annual average. The Dead of the Year The death-roll of the year includes many names distinguished in politics, in the church, in authorship and in art. The New York Post notes the following: The ranks of the authors have been thinned. Frederika Bremer died at Stock holm early in the year; Jared Sparks at Cambridge in March; Joseph Mery in France in June, and Count Ourowski ut Washington in May. Among the dead statesmen and political leaders are Daniel S. Dickinson, Lewis Cuss, John Van Buren, Elijah F. Purdy, Moses F. Odell, James Humphrey, Senators Foot and Wright, and Commodore Stockton. Prince Esterhazy died ut Ratisbon in May, and Marquis d'Azeglio in Italy in January. In October M. Thouvenel closed his long and active career in France. Gordon Cumming, the famous lion-hunt er, was accidentally killed in Scotland in March. Professor henry D. Rogers, a dis tinguished savant, also died in Scotland in May. John Russ, chief of the Cherokee Nation, died at Washington In August. The sculptor Gibson died in Italy in Jan uary, seventy-live years old, and Sir Chas. Eastlake, president of the British Royal Academy, died at Pisa just us the New Year came in. The most prominent clergymen who have died during the year 'tire Drs. Cumming and Piso, of the Roman Catholic Church; Dr. Eliphalet Nott, president of the Union College; Dr. Hawks, of this city; Dr. Woe well and Rev. John Keble, in England, and "Father Prout," in Paris—the last named better known by his pseudonym Wan by his proper name of Mahoney. General Scott died at West Point on the 29th of May. Admiral Pareja, commander of the Spanish fleet in the Pacific, commit ted suicide. John S. Rarey, the horse tamer, died in Ohio in October, Robert B. Minturn, one of our leading merchants, died on the 9th of January; Gerard Hal leek at New Haven in the same month; Simeon Draper and Police Inspector Car penter in November; and Geu. S. R. Curtis in December. Loss ot Blood Horses on the Helvetia. It will be remembered that Mr. Cameron purchased thirty-nine blood horses for im portation to this country in November last, and that thirty-four out of the thirty-nine died on board the steamer Helvetia on her passage to this country, on the 6th of Decem ber last. The horses saved: Birague, a fine steeple-chaser; Velucris, a bay colt foal, by Oulston ; Juniper, brown filly, by old Calabar; and a bay filly, by Maccarom- Eclipse. These arrived in an exhausted and crippled condition. Mr. Cameron's loss is estimated at $70,000. In relation to the dis aster, Mr. Cameron says: "In Mal ship ped four horses from London by ship Rhine, .on. Christmas day. They were 76 days .coming to this port, and were landed un iaurt. lam now satisfied that, had I selected :a sailing ship instead of a screw steamer, .the result would have been different. My opinion is that screw steamers are unsafe for live stock, as they all roll more or less, And some of them excessively, as in the case of the Helvetia." There was no insurance onlhestock.—N. Y. World. The citizens of Newark, New Jersey, were startled on New YeSes Day by the_, report of the fact:that the wife of, one of the moat reepeetable,eitizens , of that .city. was shot.by. a burglar. .The iacte, as near :110412 be elloited, are as follows: At an early hour yesterday intitning the wife of Mr. Aaron NVard, living on'the Keasby estate, on the 'Clinton road, near Newark, was awakened • by feeling a hand pushing under her pH low, and looking up she discovered a man, ' apparently, blacki standing over her and trying to secure two watches which were under the pillow. She immediately raised herself, when the ruffian started . for the door. She hastily followed him and de manded to know what he was doing there. The desperate fellow at once saw the di lemma in which he was placed, and without answering turned upon her, and, producing a pistol, tired, the ball entering her body about an inch from the heart, striking the ribs. He then made a grab for his hat, which he had left in the hallway but in his haste to escape he took one belonging to Mr. Ward, leaving his own as a clue to his detection. The noise made by the dis charge of the pistol awakened the woman's husband, who slept in a room on the other side of the hallway, opposite the lady's chamber; but the ruffian had escaped, taking with him two valuablegold watches. Medical aid was immediately summoned, when the wound was found to be as above stated. The lady is still in a precarious situation, although hopes are entertained of her recovery. Information of the occur rence was at once sent to police headquarters, and the most able detectives have been employed to work up the case. The hat of the burglar was ale() left at the police station. Several hairs were found in it, and being of a light texture and color, it is thought that the would-be murderer has hair of that description. The injured lady describes the assailant as one ofexceedingly heavy build, and a negro. It is believed, however that the man was disguised for the occasion, as the hat and the hair found in it are not those of a negro. The store of Mr. Ward, on the corner of Broad and Court streets, was also entered some time during Monday night, and It is generally believed tllat both deeds were committed by the same rascal. The affair has cast a great gloom over the community, and the authorities have oxpressed their determina tion to detect the author of the foul deed. Executive Pardons The Attorney General has just completed and sent to the President for transmission to the House of Representatives a list of the Generals, members of Congress, Cabinet officers, and other officials of high rank In the confederate service, who have been par doned under the amnesty proclamation of May H, 1565. The list contains between two and three hundred names, and In con nection with each name is stated the excep tion of the proclamation under which the owner came, the names of persons recom mending his pardon, and the date of issue. The number of persons recommending eac. i pardon is between ten and fifteen. In the case of William Aiken ox-Governor of South Carolina the list of recommendations reaches three hundred, and Geo. A. Tron holm, who was Secretary of the rebel Treas ury, has nearly one thousand names ap pcnded to his petition. A list of all the persons who have received pardons will be made out soon after the convention of Con gress, and when that is completed the House will have received the information in regard to the clemency which has been extended by the President to repentant rebels. gk.,ttornego-itt-gaui. • A.

Kennerly, deceased, lying about one mile south of the village of White Post, Clarke county, Virginia, and con tinuing about 771 ACRES, from 76 to 75 Acres to Timber, and the balance un er ctivation. I shall, therefore, on THU uI RS DA Y. 'Snit DECEM BEN NEXT, offer said Farm at Public Auction to the high est bidder. The Land is limestone, of good quality, well adapted to grain and grass. The DWELLING HOUSE is of stone, with a recent framed ad dition. The BA RN, STABLING and CORN HOUSE are all new and,wed constructed. Two never-tailing wells of excellent WATER be tween the dwellings and stables, and a beauti ful POND of CLEAR WATER within thirty rods of the buildings. This is the best ice producing pond in the neighborhood.
