One little anecdote men- tionnd by Mr. Brown, which exhibits a be- autiful trait in the character of a pupil, we repeat.
The senior lad of the school, in the course of the past year, at his leisure hours earned a sum of money. With this money he assisted his father very much: but not content with thu, the first duty of a Chinese, be laid out the sum of $100 on improving the walks around the Institution. This instance of generous graikude, was even made more perfect from the circumstance, of the young man's not even mentioning it. The discovery, of who was at the expense, having only been made acci dentally.

BEG respectfully to intimate that with a view to reduce the expence of Freight for con- large articles from Calcutta to Chica, veying large they are now completing every requisite in Furniture of a novel and portable description, more than half the expence by which much more hitherto incurred will be saved. The appear ance of the Furniture when put together will be equally handsome, it's substantiality will not be in the slightest degree affected, and the ar- rangement of the different parts will be so clear and distinct that the most experienced will be enabled to pu
them together.
Currie & Co. venture to think that this will form a great desideratum, and fend much be remove the objection to ordering Furniture in Calcutta for China. They therefore venture do esto Solicit the patronage of the Community, and any orders with which they may be en- trusted, will meet with the most strict and punctual attention.
