City Road, Haverfordwest. Sir,—I am happy to inform you that I have experienced the greatest benefit from taking only two boxes of Dr. Lo- cock's Pulmonic Wafers, which you were kind enough to recommend me. Previously to my taking them I could scarcely walk without the greatest difficulty of breathing, and my cough would then increase to such a degree that I was nearly suffocated. I had not for many months slept t, L.JJ" "'1.1 i.ww. I"c. I "6" „L2o to sleep all night without coughing. I can truly recom- mend them to those who are similarly afflicted as a most invaluable remedy, and you are at perfect liberty to make my case public if you think proper. I am, &c. JOHN JONES, Cabinet-maker. Rapid Cure of Cough and Difficulty of Breathing. Hale, near Liverpool. Sir,-I write to inform you of the great benefit I have received from taking Locock's Wafers, which you recom- mended to me. I was so much oppressed at my chest that when I lay down a coughing fit came on with such violence that I have often thought I should not live to see the morning but now I can sleep a whole night without coughing, after having taken only two boxes of wafers. J. HAYNES. Witness, P. Roberts, 4, Ranelagh-street. IMPORTANT TO ALL WHO SING. From S. Pearsall, Esq. of her Majesty's Concerts, and Vicar Choral of Lichfield Cathedral. GENTLEMEN,—A lady of distinction having pointed out to me the qualities of Dr. Locock's Wafers, I was induced to make a trial of a box, and from this trial I am happy to give my testimonial in their favour. I find by allowing a few of the Wafers (taken in the course of the day) to gradu- ally dissolve in the mouth, my voice becomes bright and clear, and the tone full and distinct. They are decidedly the most efficacious of any I have ever used. S. PEARSALL. The particulars of many hundred cures may be had from every agent throughout the kingdom and on the continent.

REVIEWS OF THE WORK. Curtis on Manhood.—Far be it from us to misdirect our pen or sully our pages with a notice in any shape of a work that would taint the purest mind or pander to one evil prin- ciple of human nature but the book under review, so far from having a tendency of the kind, is one calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without imparting one idea that can vitiate the mind not already tutored by the vices of which it treats." -.Alaval and Military Gazette, 1st Feb., 1851. We feel no hesitation in saying, that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful—whe- ther such person hold the relation of a parent, preceptor, 01 a clergyman."—Sun, Evening Paper.

THE WAR. I [THE FOLLOWING APPEARED IN OUR SECOND EDITION OF LAST WEEK.] TRIESTE, Nov. 21. A despatch from Constantinople of the 12th states General Vivian closely pressed by the Russians under General Wrangol, had applied to head-quarters for cavalry reinforce- ments. ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 22. The question of arming the nation is mooted. The pro- ject is actually under discussion. Such a levy in case of need would be summoned at the third Ban.
IPACIFIC PROPOSITIONS.
I PACIFIC PROPOSITIONS. PARIS, THURSDAY. It is asserted in diplomatic circles that at the instance of Prussia, Russia has consented to make the first advances. Crimea letters have arrived to the 10th. The weather was fine and favourable for military opera- tions though daily becoming more chilly. No rain has fallen since the week after the fall of Sebastopol. A cloud in the Crimea is a rarity. The Russian attack is still expected. The Russians are hutting themselves in the heights.

I THE KING OF SARDINIA. MARSEILLES, THURSDAY, 10A.M. The King of Sardinia, has just disembarked. He has been conducted to the prefecture by the public authorities and by an immense multitude.
THE CRIMEA. I
THE CRIMEA. I It was reported that General Vivian had arrived at Kertch that the Russian General Wrangel, with rein- forcements, was threatening the straights of Yenikale. The allies had 30,000 men to oppose him, and more troops were expected. The camp of huts established at Yenikale is arranged for 15,000 men. The French squadron of Admiral Bruat had arrived at Constantinople from the Crimea, having on board two brigades of infantry and artillery, and the equipage of the Imperial Guard Eight regiments of infantry were to return to France, viz.:—The 20th, 39th, 50th, 82nd, 86th, 90th, 97th, and 100th. 90th, 97th, and 100th. MARSEILLES, Nov. 25. The Cairo has arrived, bringing dates from Constantino- ple to the 15th inst. The Fleurus had started for Toulon with 1,000 of the Imperial Guard. The whole squadron of Admiral Bruat was to follow on the 16th. It will call, it is said, at Messina. Admiral Lyons is to spend a part of the winter at Malta. M. Thouvenel, the French Ambassador, had given a fete to Admiral Bruat at the Embassy, Therapia; and Mehemet Ali also feted the Amiral on board of the Mah- moudie. In the late battle of the Ingour, the Turks had 26,000 men and the Russians 16,000, but the latter entrenched themselves strongly. The Russians lost 500 men and five cannon out of seven which they had. The surveyance by the agents of the Western Powers of the mode of expenditure of the Turkish loan is still resisted by the Porte; but the Commissaries of the Allies persist in executing their mission. The town of Sebastopol will not be occupied. The engineers will complete it's destruction. The preparations for blowing up the arsenals, docks, and other immense constructions, are nearly finished. It was asserted at Constantinople that the army of General Mouravieff had recrossed the Arpatchai. [If this news prove true, the siege of Kars must be raised, and the Russian forces have crossed the Arpatchai into Georgia, on their road to Goumri and Tiflis.] The Moniteur of Saturday publishes the following :— Marshal Pelissier, in his last report to the Minister of War, gives the following account of a successful coup-de- main effected on the 3rd of November by the expeditionary corps of Eupatoria, under the orders of General D'Allon- Ville General D'Allonville having received information that large flocks, destined for the use of the Russian army, were collected near El-Toch, eight leagues north of Eupa- toria, attempted to capture them by a coup de main, which perfectly succeeded. With this object in iew. he sent in the direction of El-Toch General Ali Pasha, commander of the Ottoman cavalry, with the Irregulars and some Turkish squadrons, as well as two French and two English squadrons. At the same time he left the town with the remainder of the French and English troaps, to support the operation. The English cavalry brigade advanced on Djollach, the French cavalry brigade on Tioumen De Failly's division, formerly the reserve, took up a position between Orta- Mamai and Schiban. Meantime General Ali Pasha advanced on El-Toch, meeting only a few Cossacks, who fled on his approach, although supported by a force of some squadrons. At 5 p.m. Ali Pasha sent word to General D'Allonville that his operation had succeeded, and at 9 o'clock he returned to Eupatoria, bringing with him 270 oxen, 3,450 sheep, 50 horses, 10 camels, and 20 waggons, captured from the Russians, ( I DEATH OF ADMIRAL BRUAT. MARSILLES, Nov. 26. The Ulm arrived last night at Toulon. She brought the sad news of the death of Admiral Bruat, the French Admiral Commanding in-Chief. He died of gout in the stomach, says one account-- of cholera, says another—while the French fleet was off Messina. MARSEILLES, Nov. 27. The Simois has arrived, with advices from Constantinople of the 19th, and the Crimea of the 17th. She has brought 278 invalids. Despatches leave at 9 am Everything was going on satisfactorily at Kars up to the 31st of October. General Mouravieff still maintained the blockade.
,THE WAR IN ASIA. I
THE WAR IN ASIA. I PARIS, Thursday, 7 p.m. According to despatches which have reached Paris, we may expect to learn ere long that Omar Pasha has again forced some defiles leading to Kutais. The Russian general had sent in great haste for reinforcements, as they were hard pressed by the Turks. The Moniteur publishes the following, dated Constan- tinople, Nov. 12 According to the last accounts, Omar Pasha was ex- pecting a battle. General Mouravieff had detached a division from his army, which was advancing by forced marches on Kutais by the Akhiska-road. About 8,000 Turks, under Moustapha Pasha, had leftBatoum to try and cut off this detachment. Early in the month they had reached Osurgethi. The Commander-in-Chief bade them meet him at Kutais, which will become the theatre of some important engagement, unless the Russians prefer en- trenching themselves in the defiles which protect the ad- vance to Teflis." It was reported at Constantinople on the 12th, on the strength of news from Asia, that the siege of Kars was raised, and that the Russians were falling back on Teflis. Omar Pasha had arrived within 20 leagues of Kutais. Selim Pasha had left Trebisonde, with Egyptian cavalry and artillery, for Kars. THE SIEGE OF KARS. I There are grounds for believing that the report that the army of General Mouraviefl had crossed the Arpatchai into Georgia, is correct. The fact that only some 10,000 Georgian militia have hitherto opposed the progress of Omar Pacha, shows the weakness of the Russians, and discovers the imperative necessity which compels General Mouravieff to raise the siege of Kars, unless he would expose himself to the in- terruption of his communications, the loss of Tiflis itself, and the risk of a capitulation. The great victory at Kars has so shattered the main body of the Russians, that it is doubted whether as many as 15,000 men remain under the orders of General Mouravieff. Under these circumstances, we hope soon to receive the certain news of the safety of Kars and its gallant defenders and of the triumphant progress of Omar Pacha.—Morning Post. _M_
THE BALTIC.
THE BALTIC. KIEL, Nov. 22. The news concerning the movements of the allied fleets in the bay are bare and uninteresting. The weather is getting colder every day at the time I write all the hills are covered with hoar frost, and the thermometer stands at 24 of Fahranheit's scale; if this lasts, in a couple of days the bay will be covered with ice. On Monday morning the Locust arrived with the last of the mails via Dantzic; they are now brought to Kiel daily. The Harrier arrived about noon from the Gulf of Finland with despatches for the Commander-in-Chief. On Tuesday morning the Vulture left Kiel for Faro, and the Orion joined the fleet from Nargen she left Admiral Baynes and a part of his squadron there on Saturday, but it is supposed he has by this time left for Faro. They have experienced some very severe weather. In the evening the steam floating-factory Volcano left for England; she has been of great service to the combined fleets during the summer The Harrier returned to her cruising ground yesterday, since when nothing has happened. There is no talk of the fleet leaving the bay for some days; the Royal George is daily and hourly expecting to go, and her officers have been excluded from the general leave from Monday until Friday night for half the officers at a ûa8 to ga Humbug, Besta, &o., ao hom abia it will appear that the ships will not leave the harbour before I the middle or end of next week, unless they sail on Satur- day with the neatly full moon to light them through the Belts.

THE PRINCIPALITIES. I The German Journal of Frankfort contains a letter from Bucharest, which says A matter has just taken place here which has greatly excited public attention. A Rus- sian deserter, named Pawlow, originally from Bessarabia, who had played rather a prominent part in the early events of the war, entered the service of Turkey. After having abandoned the Turkish service, he took refuge first in Moldavia, and afterwards in Wallachia, where he so in- gratiated himself into the good graces of a Boyard as to induce him to give him his daughter. Some time after, suspicions were entertained that Pawlow was a Russian spy, and at last his father-in-law accused him before the local authorities. An investigation took place, and Pawlow being, in consequence, brought before a court-martial was proved to be a Russian spy and shot." J

"r"V'v"r, r" "r- SWEDEN & THE WESTERN POWERS. ALLEGED SWEDISH ALLIANCE. We can state authoritatively that there are no present prospects of a Swedish Alliance, and that the statements which have been published respecting a military con- vention," and its terms, are purely imaginary. The object of the mission of General Canrobert to Stockholm was the presentation to King Oscar of the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour, and the cultivation of those good relations which subsist between the nations. The King and the people of Sweden have been both much flattered by the mission of so distinguished a soldier, and have emphatically displayed their sympathy with the cause of the Western Powers—indeed, we may say that the verdict of public opinion which the Emperor Napoleon invited in his late speech has, in this case, been clearly given.-Post. I" THE MISSION OF GENERAL CANROBERT. PARIS, Nov. 25. With reference to the mission of General Canrobert to Sweden says the Times correspondent:—I mentioned in my letter of Thursday that it was affirmed that the General had realized all the hopes excited by that mission; that, ac- cording to some persons, the result had even surpassed all previous expectations and I repeated the statements cur- rent among political persons as to the particular advantages which were to follow from it. I learn that the nature of that mission, as conveyed in these statements, is contra- dicted by one of your contemporaries, with the additional declaration that the object of the mission, was merely the presentation of King Oscar of the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour, and the cultivation of those good re- lations which subsist between the two nations." I now affirm, and on authority which, if I were free to name it, few would hesitate to accept as one of the best, that the General's mission was not solely the presentation of the riband and star of the Legion of Honour; that it was with a view to an arrangement with the King of Sweden that he has succeeded to the complete satisfaction of his own Government, and has concluded a most satisfactory ar- rangement with reference to the eventualities of the war." I confine myself for the present to this declaration, emanat- ing from an authentic source, as it is probable the moment has not yet arrived, for reasons that will be easily under- stood, for the official announcement of the advantages to be derived to France and England from the satisfactory arrangement in question. I repeat that of the main fact of the complete success of General Canrobert there is no doubt whatever. That complete success can hardly refer to an attempt to force His Swedish Majesty to accept the Cross of the Legioen of Honour, or to conquering any repugnance of his own to admit the Scandinavian order of chivalry. The Paris cur- respondent of the Independance Beige and the Emancipation also re-affirm their previours statements on this point. The former says "I may add to what I stated in my letter of yesterday re- specting the mission of General Canrobert to Stockholm, that the General did not quit that capital before the signatures were affixed. The documents which have been thus signed in the name of France and Sweden are not yet positively known, but it is believed that they will soon be so. Be this as it may, the incontestable fact of the signatures given proves that the mission of General Canrobert, far from having disappointed the hopes which were attached to it, has had complete success. I repeat that it was not pos- sible that the extraordinary embassy of the illustrious General, conducted with so much solemnity, could have any object but a serious and important one. You may therefore be certain that the hopes which bad been founded on that mission could hardly be exaggerated; and there is every reason to be greatly satisfied at seeing them so completely realized." The Paris letter of the Emancipation says :— As to the Scandinavian Powers, their co-operation is a fact placed beyond a doubt, and which cannot but be of immense importance, when we consider that Sweden alone can put on foot an army of 60,000 good soldiers and furnish 200 gunboats." I have to add that it is probable the particulars of the satisfactory arrangement with Sweden will be made known before long. We felt bound, a few days ago, to contradict an assertion wjiich appeared in the columns of the Times, that "a military convention had been concluded with Sweden—of which "convention" even the details were sketched. We perceive that the Paris correspondent of our contemporary confines himself" now to the declaration that a most satisfactory arrangement with regard to the eventualities of the war has been concluded." This is a very different statement of a vague character. lie backs it up, however, by quotations from those great circulators of canards-the Belgian papers-which do not hesitate to speak of sig- natures affixed and oocuments signed." We repeat that these stories about signatures and treaties and alliances are all an invention. General Canrobert had no mission of the nature attributed to him. The General's mission is of the Imost friendly and complimentary cha- racter, and has had the important result exDected from it —viz., that of obtaining the full weight of the moral sup- and sympathy of the Swedes, and their cordial verdict in our favour Whether this most satisfactory state of affairs shall lead hereafter to more intimate relations, and to an alliance in war, is a matter for the Cabinets of London and Paris to decide. For on England and France would fall the cost and burden, whilst they would, justly, be obliged to guarantee to Sweden every advantage she could gain. Such a measure would open new and difficult questions in the war, and is not to be entered upon in any rash manner. Such an alliance may hereafter prove to be desirable, but, as yet, no alliance is in existence, nor is any engagement effected. The Swedes are a gallant and noble people. They are with us in heart. We shall see whether the requirements of war, and the force and obstinacy of Russia, will oblige us to invite the aid of their swords.-Post (Tuesday). I GENERAL CANROBERT. HAMBURG, NOV. 26.

- - - - DUKE GEORGE OF MECKLENBOURG-STRELITZ.
DUKE GEORGE OF MECKLENBOURG-STRELITZ. The Times, under this head, gives prominent insertion to the following impertinent letter. We regret that our contemporary, who should have been better informed, could give currency to insinuations at once insolent and injurious to the Royal Family. The following is the letter "WHO IS HE? "TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Is the Duke George of Mecklenbourg-Strelitz,' whom the lnvalide Russe announces as a satellite of the Emperor of Russia in his recent visit to Odessa, the gentleman to whom the British nation pays £3,000 a year for having married an English Princess ? "Those who keep this little German Prince out of their hard earnings ought to know with what good taste their bounty is spent. A TAXPAYER." The Prince, who married the Princess Augusta of Cambridge, is Frederic-William, Hereditary Grand Duke of Mecklenbourg-Strelitz, and is neither in Russia, nor in any way affected to Russia. The Prince, who, not unnaturally, is with the Emperor of Russia, is his younger brother, Duke George of Mecklen- bourg-Strelitz, who is a General in the service of Russia, is chief of battery No 23 of Horse Artillery, a member of the Committee of Artillery, and attached to the Imperial Guard. He was married in 1851 to the Grand Duchess Catherine, daughter of the Grand Duke Michael of Russia. -Post,

THE HORSE GUARDS—Some of our contemporaries have given currency to a rumour that his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge is likely, very shortly, to succeed Viscount Hardinge as General Commanding-in-Chief." We are able to state that the rumour is without foundation, and that there is no probability whatever of the resignation of Lord Harding c-, -Post. THE WEATHER IN THE SOUTH OF RUSSIA.—A letter from Odessa of the 12th inst contains the remark "For the last three days we have had thorough winter weather and warm pelisses out of doors and stoves within are everywhere to be seen. It is very foggy, whence we con- clude, according to experience, that in the Crimea it rains." MR. MIALL, M.P.—On Saturday morning it was an- nouced by placards posted on the walls of the town that Mr. E. Miall, M P., would address the electors and non- electors of Rochdale this week. A rumour is current that some of the electors are dissatisfied with Mr. Miall's negative mode of dealing with the question of the war and we are informed, on good authority that a placard is in. the press calling upon the electors to consider how far Mr. Miall represents them on that question.—Manchester Guardian. MR SCOTT RUSSELL'S MONSTER STEAMER.—We have pleasure in being in a position to confirm the statement that Captain William Harrison, of the Royal Mail ocean steam- ship Africa, has been appointed to the command of the Great Eastern, now building in the yard of Messrs. Scott ltussell and Co. This monster vessel (says the North British Mail) at present in course of construction at the works of Mr. Scott Russell, at Mill wall, on the Thames, is to be 10,000 tons burden, and will be propelled by a combination of paddles and screw. We noticed some time ago a portion of the machinery which had been made at the extensive forge of Messrs. Fulton and Neilson, Lancefiekl. We visited these works the other day, and had an opportunity of inspecting some other forgings for the machinery, which that enterprising firm have just completed. The work con- tracted for by Messrs. Fulton, Neilson, and Co., a list of which we subjoin, will give our readers some idea of the magnitude of the mammoth steamer, as well as the capa- bilities of that firm :—One intermediate shaft 214 feet long, 26-inch diameter; two paddle-shafts, 3H feet long, 2-tJ- inch diameter two cranks, 7 feet 'tween, centres, and 21- inch thick; propeller shaft, 47 feet long, and 2-11-inch diameter three friction straps, 40 feet inside diameter, 14i inches thick also columns, covers, &c. The propeller shaft has just been finished, and is at present lying in the yard. It is the heaviest piece of forged iron in the world it is nearly 36 tons weight. The jolly boats eight in num- ber, will be small screw steamers, and will be raised and lowered by water power, and tne vessel herself will be steered by a small engine of several horse power. She is expected to be launched in about twelve months.—Liverpool Albion. SIR ROBERT PEEL AND THE Pitrss.-The two members f)r Tamworth had an opportunity of meeting their con- stituents on Tuesday last at a public dinner given to the retiring Mayor of the town. The toast of Her Majesty's Ministers" was spoken to by Sir Robert Peel, who said,— This war was not a matter of choice to them it was of necessity (hear, hear) and the best way of concluding it was by a hearty and determined prosecution of it, and an untiring perseverance in carrying out the object we had in view. (Cheers.) But, however determined the Government and the people were to carry on the war with vigour, it would be perfectly useless unless they had fitting agents abroad to answer to the policy of Lord Palmerston. What they wanted were men 3,000 miles away with energy and vigour to carry out the policy of the Administration at home. He could not help saying that the press had rendered the most incalculable benefits to the country. Far from crying down the press, as some others were inclined to do, he thought that the press had done infinite good by placing before the public, with great temper, judgmrnt, and 1determination, the circumstances which had occured in connection with the war, and which otherwise might have been concealed both from the Parliament and the country, and which had led to the adoption of measures which, but for the press, might not have been undertaken. Having touched on the cost of the war, which he set down at E100, 000,000, Sir Robert went on to say that during the last year the fleet in the Baltic had cost the country between E8,000,000 and 19,000,000 sterling, and he thought he was expressing the opinion of the country-at least he was sure he was expressing the opinion of many in the country —when he said that the LS,000,000 or zC9,000,000 spent in the Baltic had not answered the expectations of the people. The hon. Barjnet expressed a similar opinion as to the fleet in the Black Sea, and referred with high praise to Lord Palmerston's late speech at Guildhall. Captain Townshend followed, controverting Sir Robert's views as to the fleets, pointing out that all that could be done was done. Other toasts and speeches followed. A CLERGYMAN MARRYING HIMSELF.—It has been de- cided by the Court of Queen's Bench in Dublin, that a clergyman of the Church of England can legally marry himself. The case Beamish v. Beamish, was decided on Saturday. The plaintiff was Albert S. Beamish, son of the eldest son, and the defendant Henry Albert Beamish, second son of Dr. John Swane Beamish and the two parties each laid claim to the property of the latter, who died intestate. The point for decision of the Court was whether the plaintiff was legitimate, his father the Rev. S. S. Beamish, a priest of the Church of England (Dr. Beam- ish's eldest son), having himself performed in a private house in Coik the ceremony of marriage between himself and Isabella Frazer, the mother of the plaintiff, no other witness having been present, except that a woman named Catherine Coffey, saw what was going on from an adjoining yard, but did not hear the words. The facts, however, were not disputed. The Court (Messrs. Justices Cramp- ton, Perrin, and Moore) gave a unanimous judgment that the marriage so performed was valid, and the plaintiff en. titled to the property. ASSAULT BY A ROMAN CATHOLIC CLRRGYMAN.—A Tipperary paper states that the Rev. J. Fennell, Roman Catholic curate of Templemore, was fined 20s. and costs at the petty sessions of that town for an assault upon the wife of a soldier named Logan, of the provisional depot, quartered there. 'The clergyman, it seems, was in the ha- bit of going about the town at night to chastise those un- fortunate women who almost invariably infest garrison towns, and, when engaged in one of those missions of peace and charity, the rev. flagellator mistook the soldier's wife for one of the offender., and, under this im- pression, committed the assault complained of. The hus- band brought the case before the bench of magistrates, and the result was as above stated, a fine of 20s. as the reward of over zeal in the prosecution of this striking plan for the conversion of unfortunates. THE BIBLE BURNING AT KINGSTOWN.—Dublin, Mon- day Evening.—The Redemptionist Father Pecherini ap- peared this morning at the Kingstown Police-court, to answer the complaint of the Right Hon. Wm. Keoah, her Majesty's Attorney-Generai, for blasphemously burning and treating with contempt the Holy Scriptures, thereby tend- ing to bring religion into contempt, at Kingstown, in the county of Dublin, on the -5th of November instant. De- fendant is of foreign appearance, about 45 years of age, and of low stature. On being asked his name, he replied, in a defiant manner, My name is Vladimir Pecherini, the name of the Russian saint!" A Mr. Kernan, an attorney, applied for a postponement, as the summons had been served only on Saturday last, at Mitchelstown, county Cork. Mr. CorbaHis, Q.C., on the part of the Crown, having consented, the case stands over until Wednesday next, the rev. father having entered into recognizances, himself in £50, and two sureties of zC25 each. His sure- ties were a Mr. Carrington, and Mr. John Quinlan, of the Dublin Evening Post. Mr. Corballis then tendered infor- mations of George Brown against John Hamilton, for tear- ing a Testament and throwing it into the fire on the same occasion, and summonses were issued against defendant for Wednesday next. The greatest excitement prevails. A strong body of police are on the spot. A large mob are assembled round the court, and several arrests have been made. The Government have adopted the most effectual measures for the preservation of the public peace. A COURAGEOUS OLD WO.IIAN.-The town of Shepton Mallet, Somerset, has lately been the scene of several burglaries, one of which, committed on the night of Tues- day last, has acquired considerable notoriety from the courageous conduct of a woman named Patience Vining, who has reached the advanced age of 84. Mrs. Vining lives in a small cottage, and during the night before men- tioned she was alarmed by a noise as of some person forcing his way into the house. On looking up she saw a man enter her bedroom with a lighted candle in his hand, his face being covered with a veil of thick crape. Nothing daunted the old woman leaped out of bed, and, challenging the fellow as to his business in her cottage, boldly said it should be life for life. She then ran up to him and tore the mask from his face; upon which he dealt her blow upon the head, which felled her to the ground, and rendered her partially insensible. On recovering herself she saw the burglar about to carry off a box in which was her little all. She at once resolved, if possible, to save her property, and, seizing the tongs, she commenced a fierce attack upon him. One of the blows which she aimed at the robber knocked the candle from his hand. The old woman then raised a cry of murder," and, either fearing the arrival of help or unwilling to remain iu the dark with the incensed omner of the cottage, the villain decamped. It is gratifying to known that the brave old woman sated her pgalierty.
