American fisher men now more frequently extend their Disea torial visits to its coasts than formerly, and, so far as we understand, with good average suc cess. Some interesting facts, going to shed a. little light on the generiildarkncss with respect to the natural history and meteorology of La— brador, are presented in the 'fol’owing extract from a. letter to the New York Journal of 00m merce, written by one of a. party engaged in co-jfishing along theshoreofi that bleak and chilling land. He says: “ From a themometrical register kept at Rigolette, we find the lowest temperature oflast . winter to be but. 37 degrees, which is no colder , weather than is found in New England; but that season was unusually warm. The average eummerday temperature, according to ourown observations, is about 54 degrees. In one in stance the thermometer indicated as high as 80 degrees in the shade, and in another 74 de— grees. The lowest day temperature was 33 degrees, and the mercury several times sank to ~10 degrees. It is not intensity of cold, but the raw, chilly atmosphere, impregnated with fogs and the moisture of melting snow, that renders necessary much thicker clothing than we wear at. home in mid winter. Although the climate is considered very healthy by the settlers, yet I could hardly recommend it to invalids. To those afliicted with weak or diseased lungs it. is extremely injurious. Of this we had abundant evidence in the three onscs among our passen gers, all of which have been aggravated by the j exposure. The winters here are very long, and 3 may be said to extend from the middle of Sep— ‘ temher to the first of June. The cold is quite uniform, and the snow lies about four feet deep on a. level. All that portion of the ocean em» buyed by the chain of islands that extends along the coast is frozen solid until May, and the ice field sometimes extends beyond, several miles to seaward. This is then the resort of the Arctic foxes and the white or polar beer. The ‘ Water hear’ he is called here. They are often found upon'the islands after the breaking up of the ice, where they have been left unex pectedfy. They are quite numerous. 0f foxes, large numbers are caught in traps. Thea:- live altogether upon the coast, and do not fra ternize with the other species of fox in the in terior. Snow may be said to disappear by the end of May, but it is found in gulloys and hol lows all through the summer. . “Labrador water we cannot recommend. II is but the draining of melting snow and frozen cart-h, which, percolating through the moss, becomes a rank decoction, filled with vegetable matter, and of the color of whisky. Natural springs are rare, but we have frequently found ponds and lakes upon the summits of rocky knoll-s, which appear to be fathomless, and whose water was pure and deliciously cold. Ar . I have remarked, there are no roads in this country, and the only thoroughfares of travel in summer, are the water courses which flow from the interior. I have referred at length to the Nor’west river. and its immense outlet.— The St. Francis or Alexis river is the only one of considerable size between that and the Straits of Belle Isle. It is a noble stream, but neither that nor the other is indicated on any maps yet made. “Labrador furnishes little sport to the an gler. Salmon are taken in immense quantities in nets, but will not. meddle with the hook; neither will sea trout or salmon trout. Brook trout aiford the only sport. The winter hunting is good. The only deer found here is the ear ribou and reindeer. These are by some con sidered as one and thesamc, but the Settlers make them quite distinct. The one is mottled with reddish spots ; the other is of a. mouse color in summer, and nearly white in winter. From all I can learn. the two animals are indentical, and the diii’erence in appearance is occasioned by the change of coat. The rein deer is not domesticated here, nor made to draw sledges, as in Lapland. Their time of fawning is two months later than in the States, and they are in the velvet until near the end of August. - Trapping the fur-bearing animals afiords a considerable - profit, and quite fre quently the hunter is rewarded by a black or silver fox, whose market prices are from forty to sixty dollars. “We cannot but remark how carefully the animals of this icy country are protected by nature from their enemies. When man goes ‘ forth upon the snow to hunt, where, upon the spotless mantle, the smallest object would be. readily revealed, then they are robed in white. i The white partridge flies up from his very feet, ' where be perceived but lumps of feathery $.39“- i The deer, bear, fox, ermine, all clad in white, «pass him with impunity. Did not hunger lead them to the traps,“ their deeply embedded ’ tracks ‘prate of their whereabouts,’ seldom } would they fall a victim to man. In the sum— . mer they are slaty and mouse-colored, like the ! rocks, or wood-colored, like the trees, and in ‘ many an imaginary rock, or stick, or stub, there I is animal life, which will take to itself legs or : wings when opportunity of easy escape ofi‘ers.” EN] OLD ENGLISH ‘DAlmee.——Taste, indeed, was more capricious than refined, and the epicure exulting over strong flavors, included coetacea. among his Friday fare. The whale was eaten by the Saxons, and when men Were lucky enough to get it, it appeared at. table late in the fif teenth century. In 1246 Henry 111. directed the sheriffs of London to purchase one hundred pieces of whole for his table. Whales found on the coast were the perquisites of royalty i they were cut up and sent to the king’s kitchen' in carts. Edward 11. gave a. reward 0" W 91")? shillings to three mariners who had caught a Whale Inca-r London bridge.

A DnA'm Ema—A short time ago a. gentle man, in Paris while examining an ancient ring for sale, accidentally scratched his hand with it, and. a. short time afterwards, felt an inde scribable numbness and torpor taking posses sion of him and paralyzing, all his faculties:— The declaration of a doctor who was called in, that the sufi‘erer had been poisoned, led to an examination of the ring, when it was found that the old jewel was what is called a. "Death ring,” a class ofornamems in frequent use 111' Italy duringthe seventeenth centu‘ry, when the habit of poisoning was all put nntversal. At tached t 0 the part of the ring intended to be worn inside the finger are two‘ minute lion’s claws, of the sharpest steel, and having cleft: in them filled with :1 violent poison. The wear er of this fatal ring. wishing to exercise re venge on any one, would take the victim’s hand, and pressing it, over so gently, the sharp claw would he sure to inflict a slight scratch on the skin. and the victim would be equally sure to be dead before the next morning. Not— withstanding the length of time which must have elapsed since the poison was secreted in the ring in question, it was still powerful enough to cause great danger, as has been seen, to the gentleman who had summarily touched It. GETTING PensoruL.——Sir Henry Bulwer. the English Embassador, lately had an interview with the Sultan, in which. after remrmstrating upon the incapacity of the Sultan’s officers in the provinces, he suggested some reforms in the internal policy of the Empire, and said, among other things: “Women are expensive in Turkey, and in your Mmesly’s household they cuuse enormous waste. This your Mu— jesty knows, and you have ordered pruaent reforms; but perhaps not sufficient for the situation." This decided language was made more so by the interpreter, and the Sultan, evidently supposing that. the “great. powers" were going to curtail his wife department, declared that while he was willing to receive advice, he would not be insulted, nnd immedi ately retired. It was not before the next day that explanations could he made sotisfuctory, and Sir Henry admitted to another interview.
