NELL AND THE WIDOW. | In Madden’s Revolution of Ireland we find a whimsical jaccount of a scold ng match between the late Mr. O'Connell, thes a young man just called to the bar, and one Biddy | Moriarty, an ancient widow, who kept a huxter’s stall. on ‘one of the quays nearly opposite the Four Courts, and whose | powers of abuse were noiorious from one end of Dublin to ithe other. The lingual duella was the result of a wager, Mr. O'Connell backing himself to outscold and silence the virago. The result is thus deseribed :— The party adjourned to the huxter’s stall, and there was | the owner berself, superintending the sale of her small wares '—a few loungers and ragged idlers were hanging around her stall, for Biddy was a ‘character,’ and, in her way, Was one of the sightso! Dublin. | O’Conuell was very confident of success. He had laid an ingenious plan tor overcoming her, and, with all the anxiety }ofau ardent experimentalist, waited to put it into practice. He resolved to open the attack. At this tiaie, O’Connell’s own ‘party, and the loungers about the place, formed an audience | quite sufficient to rouse Mrs. M wiarty. on public provocation, O'Vonnell commenced ithe attack :-— ‘What’s the price of this walking stick, Mrs. What’s- your-nanie ? * Siorlarty, sir, Is my name, and a good one it is; and what ave you to say agen it ? and one and sixpence is the price of the stick. Troth, it’s cheap us dirt, 80 it Is,’ | * One and sixpence for a walking stick ; whew! why, you are no better than an imposter, to ask eighteen-pence for |what cost you two-pence.’ * Two-pence, y ur grandmother,’ replied Mrs. Biddy ; ‘ do you mean to say that it is cheating people 1 am ? imposter ‘indeed !’ ‘Ay. imposter ; and it’s :hat I call you to your teeth,’ rejoined O'Connell, * Come cut your stick, you cantankerous jackanapes.’ ‘Keep a civil tongue 1 your bead, you old diagonel,’ cried O’Conuell, caluily. | *Stop your jaw, you pugnosed badger ; or by this and by \thet,’ cried Mrs. Moriarty, ‘ U’ll make you go quicker than }you came.’ ‘Don’t be in a pa-sion, my old radius—anger will only }wrinkle your beauty.’ . . . ° } HE subscri er, seeing the necessity of a convenient place | | ‘By the hokey, if you say another word of impudence, | a very high temper, and ef this Court bad not stopped short | | L'il tan your dirty hide, you bastely commun scrub; and sorry Ud be to soil my fists upon your caicase.’ ‘Whew! boys, what a passion oid B ddy is in; I protest as | am a geutleman ‘Jintleman! jintieman! the likes of you a jistleman! ' Wisha, by gor, that bang- Bunayber. Why, you potato-faced, pipplu-iaced sueezer, when did a Madagascar monkey like you pick up enough of common Christian decency to hide your Kerry brogue ? | * Kusy, now—-easy now,’ cried Q’Connell, with imperturbable good humor, * don't choke yourself with your five language, you old whiskey-drinking parallelogram.’ * What's that you cali me, you wuiderin’ villian? roared Mrs. Moriarty, stung into fury. * Lf cai you,’ answered O'Conuell, ‘a parallelogram ; and a Dublin Judge aud Jury will say that it is no libel to call you 80.” * Un, tare-an-ouns ! oh, holy Biddy ! that an honest woman like me suvuld be called & barrybeil)grum to ber face! Pm aioe on = mn | none of your barrybellygrums, you rascally gallows-bird ; you our church. Old Ky called hastily for the sheriff, ‘ Mr. ‘cowardly, sneaking, plate-licken blackguard !’ ‘Oh not you indeed? retortei O'Connell; «why I suppose you'll deny you keep a Aypotheneuse in your house.’ | ‘It’s a lie for you, you b—y robber; [ never bad such a thing in my house, you swindling thief.’ ‘Why sure all the neighbors knows very well that you! walk with them every Sunday, you heartless old heptagon.’ | | ‘Qh bear that ye saints of glory! Oh, there’s bad | keep not only a hypotheneuse, but that you have two! . | diameters ocked up in your garret, and that you go out to! Sheriff! Mr. Sheriff! Take them men to goal. This Court shan’t have her dignity insulted in this manuer.’—New York Tribune. i Tax Gov Fretns or Vicronta.—The following is from the summary in the Melbourne Age of March 16 :—“« We have news this week of a large rush at Armstrong’s diggings, about three miles from the old ground. The sinking is reported at about 100 feet deep, and dry, and about 4,009 persons are said to be at work.

Gold is reported as more plentiful in the Dunolly district, hence, things generally, are looking better. The late |Tush to Cochran’s continues, also good strokes of luck have |mouted tub of guts.’ | *Ah, you ean’t deny the charge, you miserable submudtiple | of a duplicate ratio.’ ‘ (xo riuse your mouth in the Liffy, you nasty tickle-pitcher ; after all the bad words you speak, it ought to be filthier than your face, you dirty chicken of Beelaebub.’ ‘ Rinse your own mouth, you wicked-minded old palygon— to the deuce [ pitch you, you blustering intersection of a st—ng superficious !" ‘You saucy tinker’s apprentige, if you don’t hold your jaw, I'll ’——but here she gasped for breath, unable to hawk up any more new words, fer the last volley of O'Connell had knocked the wind out of her. ‘While T-have a tongue, I'll abuse you, you most inimitable periphery Look at her boys! there she stands tamination in her circwmference, and she trembles with guilt down to the extremities of her coraliaries. Ah! so you're found out, you rectilineal antecedent and equiangular ield hag! I is with you the devil wiil fly away, with you, you porter-swipping similitude of the Lisection of a vortex.’ Overwheimed with this torrent of language, Mrs. Moriarty was silenced, Catching a saucepan, she was aiming at U*Connell's head when he very prudently made a timely retreat. ‘You have won the wager, O'Connell, here's your bet,’ cried the gentleman who proposed the contest. O’Connell knew well the use of sound in the vituperation ; and, having to deal with an ignorant scold, determined to overcome her in volubility by using all the sesguidedalia verba which occur in Euclid. With these, and a few signifi- cant epithets, and a scofing, impudent demeanor, he had, for ouce, imposed silence on Biddy Moriarty. en tt Rm fp annem ae King’s Bench, June, 1833, between certain publishing tweedledums and tweedledees, as to an alleged piracy of an arrangement of the ‘Old English Gentiemen’—an old English air, by the by—Tom Cooke, the cOniposer, was sub- ; @euaed as a witness by one of the parties. On his eross- examination by Sir James Scarlett, afterwards Lord Abinger, questioned bim thus :— ‘Now, siz, you say that the two melodies are the same. but different.

Thus, if L were to say, * You are an ass,’ it rests on ass; but if lL were to say, ‘ You are an ass,’ it rests on you, | Sir James.’ Reiterated shouts of laughter by the whole court, in whieh | the bench itseif joined, followed this repartee, Silence |having been at length obtained, the judge, with much seeming | | gravity, accosted the chop-fallen couusel thus: Lord Denman—* Are you satisfied, Sir James ? { Sir James (who deep red as he naturally was, to use poor | Jack Keeve’s own words, had become scarlet in more than | hame,) ina great huff, said—+ The witness may go down ") And go down he did, amidst renewed laughter, in which | all joined, particularly the learned brothers, except one, who ‘didn’t see any joke in the matter.— London Leader. I ne JupiciaL Dianrry av Lovstana.—Speaking of grand juries | reminds we that the Parish Court is now in session here, his! Honour Kiah Rodgers presiding—Old Kye, or Ky, they | (usually call him, Old IXy was passing sentence on a ertini-| nal, aud delivered himself as follows :—* Prisoner, stand jup? Mr. Kettles, this Vourt is under the painful necessity | jot passing seutence of the jaw upon you, sir. T'bis Court jhas no doubt, Mr, Kettles, but what you were brought into | this scrape by the use of intoxicating liquor. The friends of | ithis Court all kuows that ef thar is any vice this Court ab-} (hors, it is iutemperance. When this Court was a young iman, Mr. Kettles, it was considerably inclined to drink ; and i the friends of this Court knows that this Court has uaierally | off, and stop,ed the use of intoxicating liquor, 1 have uo | doubt, sir, but what this Court, Sir, would have been in the | Penuentiary or its grave! Another case was before the | Court. An overseer who had been discharged broaght suit | agaiust his ewployer for the wiole year’s wages, alleging that bebad been disovarged without sufficient grounds. Old Ky charged the jury as fullows :—* Tue jury will take notice that this Court is well acquainted with th@ nature of the case. | When this Court first started out in the world it followed the | business of overseeing, and ef thur is a business which the Court uude:siands, it’s bosses, mules, and biggers—tiough | the Court never over-eed in its lite for less thin 800 dolls — aud this Court in hoss racin’ was always naterally gilted ; aud this Courtio runving a quarter race whar the buses was turned, vould aljevs tara a hoss so as to gain 15 feet ina race ; and that ou a certaiu occasion in the parish of West Feiici- aba it was one of the conditious of the race that Ky Rodgers should’: turn wary one of tie hoses.’ Another case was up, and two Jawyers vot into a figut—oue of them a preacher of —a convicted perpendicular in petticoats!

At Daisy Hill also, there has been /a movement towards one or two new localities, where a fair | prospect bas opened. In the old main iead at Maryborough, some good patches have been struck, one party obtained 16 oz. from a load of dirt, and another 8 oz., besides 4 oz. in nuggets. The rush near Havelock is turning out well, and claims are being worked over a large extent of ground. At Bendigo and Ballarat we observe that some of the older | grounds are attracting fresh attention and that instanees of | remarkable success are occurring in localities that were | Supposed to have been long since worked out. During the jlast month 16,157 oz. of gold have been shipped tor Hong Kong, the greater portion of which has been shipped in the name of Chinamen, who have, during their stay in Victoria, | acquired sufficient to place themselves in a position of wealth | on their return to their own country. Tae Istanp or Borneo.—Sir James Drookes, of Saranak, in his speech at Manchester on 21st of Apri!, dwelt on the Island of Borneo as a political and commercial station. Borneo, he said, is next to Australia, the largest island in the world, as its length is 800 miles and its breadth 700. jit is more fertile than Australia, and although crossed by the equator, its geographical peculiariries give it in parts an European climate. Unlike Australia, it abounds in animals of nearly all kinds, and it already contains a population of three millions of people, all capable of civilization. All the tropical fruits grow in it, and its mineral riches are immense. Toe largest diamond known was found here within a few years. + o~+ A Massacnuserts Boy iy tae Inptra War.—Mr., Lewis ferry, of Nasthampton, has a son iu the British army in [ndia. ite left home last spring in the Niagara for Liverpool, and while in that city enlisted in the British service, joined the | i | j j } ' t | Bengal artillery, and proceeded at once to the seat of war. His friends have recently received a letter from him, dated Mebruary 9, before Lueknow. He has not been heard from | since the fall of that place, but as the British loss was small, for the opposite side, that learned counsel rather flippantly | itis hoped he was not killed. We are permitted to make the following extract from his letter :— * We are in camp before the Sepoys, and expect an attack from the enemy every day. Sir Colin Campbell is looked lor to-morrow. We have thus far fought our way through the country among the blacks. How mueh longer the war will last it is hard to tell-—but the blacks will get a warning from us soon.

The land was granted upon certain conditions. ‘The proprietors were obliged to introduce one settler for every 100 acres, jand to pay a quit rent varying from 2s, to 2s, Gd. per an. ‘num. The terms, bowever, were never enforced, and in 1830 the quit reut was abandoned altogether, and a land tax sub- stituted. It was found that the large tracts held by non-re- | sidents shut up the Island to actual settlers, and retarded its prosperity. ‘he object of the loan is to buy back the land, and dispose of it in smail lots fer settlement. Prince Edward Island coutains about 1,595,460 aeres, its area being 2,154 square miles.—The population in 1858 In 1848 the quantity of land ander cultivation was 215,389 aeres. Now that it is to be opened up for settlement, We may expect that this fine Colony will advauce more rapidly than heretofore. —New Brunswicker. snisataieeeliigemapeiniaataiiaitacen, A Weersty Live or American Sreamexs For Eoropr.~ Mr. Vanderbilt has determined to run a weekly European line of steainships at his sole expense and risk between New York, Southampton, Havre and Bremen.
