MISCELLANEOUS
RIGHT-A.N D WRONG AT SEA.
( ' " , fov tiiomas noon.
( The rights of man, whether abstract or real,
, divine or vulgar, vested or contested, civil or un-
civil, common or uncommon, have been so frequent
' ' ly tliscnssed, that one would suppose there was
. nothing new to be felt or expresxed on the subject.
1 was agreeably surprised, therefore, during a late
1 pswsge front li eland, to .hear the rights of an in
dividual asserted in so very oovel a manner as to
seem worthy of record. The injured party was
an involuntary fellow-passenger, and the first
glance at him as he leisurely ascended the cabin
stair bespoke him an original. , tlia face, figure,
gait and gestures, were all more or less eccentric,
yet without any apparent affectation ofaingularity.
ilia manner was perfectly earnest and business
, like, though quaint, On reaching the deck,, his
first movement was toward the gangway, but a mo
ment sufficed to acquaint him with the elate of the
. case The letter-bags having been detained an
r bour beyocd the usual time of departure, the steam
.had been put on at a gallop, and her majesty's road
,. packet, the Guebre, had already accomplished
some hundred fathoms on her course. .. This unto-
ward event, however, seemed rather to surprise
than annoy our original, who quietly stepped up to
the captain with the air of demanding what was
tqierely a matter of course: ' -- ---
Ilalldskipper ! Off she goes oht but yoti must
turn about my boy, and let me get out."
"Let you get out V' echoed the astonished skip
per, and again repeating it with the musicians call
a stuccato, "Let youget out 1" - ' I
"Exactly so.' I'm ging ashore."
" I'm rather afraid von are iiol, r,M said the
skipper, looking decidedly serious " unless, you
. allude teethe oihor s'mIo." ' - "
"The otter side j" exclaimed the oddity.; invol-
. untanly turning to England... . Poo.!. poQl noa

quite solemnly, " but it is my firm opinion, that
you art going acrose !" ,
r. " Foo ! poo I all gammon ; I tell you I am go
ing back to Dublin."
" Upon my word, then," said the skipper rather
briskly, " you must swim back, like a grampus, or
borrow a pair of wings from the gulls."
The munat ttie helm griuned tii broailost, at
. . what he thought a good joke of his officer's, while
the original turned round, parosVtf fhyeoa's laugh
at tit follow, and then returned to tho charge.-,.
"Come, come, skipper, it's quite as far out as 1

a congratulation on the fineness of the weather,

his retreat to the eabtn, while the skipper pretend
ed to examine the compass very minutely. In fact
our original bad met with a choke pear. The fat
man'e answer, was too much tor him, being framed
od a principle clean contrary to hia own peculiar
.system of logic. . The more he tried to unravel its
meaning, the more it got entangled. lie did'nt

looked up at the tunnel, and at the deck, and down

mind seemed -made up. lis bultooed hia coat up
to the very chin, as if to secure kimsell to bimsclt,
and never opened bis lips again tilt the vessel

attempted a final apology, but tt waa interrupted io

;' tlXCLEDON AND THE QUAKER.
- One night, when Matthewe and Inctedon joined
the Leicester company in passing through, they
agreed to perform in the musical piece ot the Una
' ker,' Incledoo to play 8leady." It waa not un
. til his name was in the play-bills, that he discov

Accordingly, in he walked, inquired of Obadiah
for some quack medicines, "n"11

dress the Quaker on the real object which ha had
in view. - My dear and respected sir," the man
started, ' allow me to explain to you how I am

ANECDOTE.
Cant. Marryat gives the following account of a
scene which waa enacted by a man who appears to
have been a good deal " Worse for liquor at tbe ta
ble ef a public house in lJper Canada.
He sat down opposite to me, at the same table
It appeared as if his vision va$ tntertfd by the
Quantity of liquor he had tuken, every thing cloe
to him on the table he considered out of his reach,
whiN every thing at a distance he attempted to
lav hold of. He tat up as erect i he could, balan
etnz himself so as not to appear corned, and fixing
his eyss upon me said, M Sir, I'll trouble you for
some fried ham. .Now the bain was in the dish
next (6 him, and altogether out of my reach, I told
him so. " Sir," said he again, " as a gentleman,
I ask you to give me some of that fried ham.

what he would do." Sir, are you a gentleman

are laid down by Chaptal for a rotation of crops : v

whose roots ire spread near the surlace, exhaunt
only that part of the soil. - '
4. All plants do not restore to the soil either (he . . ... .
same qusntity or the ssme quality of manure: - -
The grains exliaust a soil the most, and repair (he
injury the least. While some leguminous plants
restore to the toil a great portion of the juictt
they receive from it. " . .

Plants are said to foul when they promote or per
mil the growth of weeds. Plants which have not
targe leaves fitted to cover the ground, foul thd
soil. ' - -1 ' . . -
