SHAKSPEARE uses more different words than any other writer in the English language. There are about 15,000 different words in his plays and sonnels, while no other writer uses as many as 10,000. A few writers use 9,000 words, but the great majority do not employ more than 8,000, In conversation, only from 3,000 to 5,000 different words are used.

James Nasmyth was born on the rgth of August, 1808, at 47, York-place, Edinburgh. He went to school, first as a private establishment and then at the Edinburgh High School. One Sir Walter Scott, then the Great Unknown, of his school-boy recollections was that of seeing stand by his father in the crowd which was look ing on at the destruction of the Old Tolbootb, the condemned cell of which was "The Heart of Midlothian." It was an iron chest, nine. with leavy bolts and locks. The huge chest feet square, and closed by a strong iron door tumbled down with a crash, its iron door burst open, and there, was a rush of the people to look

There is really very little of importance to relate, so far as the internal affairs of Macao are concern ed. Politically, the place has been defunct for the past ten years; however, it seems to me that its prospects are brighter now than has been the case since the abolition of the infamous coolic traffic. The present Governor of Macao, Senhor da Ross, is said to be a young man of consider able promise and ability, and it is certain that since he assumed the reins of power he has invariably displayed a spirit of independence and a desire to discharge, the duties entrusted to him by the Portuguese Government with strict impartiality It will of course take a consider able time before any beneficial effects from Governor da Rosa's liberal and enlightened poilty can be felt by the general Portuguese community, but the prospect is certainly more hopeful than it has previously been during the past decade.

We need only add that a higher mark of esteem could not have been paid, and such pre- sentations are never made to foreigners except where valiant conduct has been displayed.
We are pleased to find that since the exposée regarding the vessels composing Her British Majesty's Squadron congregating at ports where their services are least required, there has been may still entertain the hope, that era, anything a rather fairer distribution of the former. We more serious occurs than the attempted outrage reported in our last issue, that Foochow may have the regular services of one gunboat; the presence of which has always such a salutary effect upon the natives. The present unsettled state of affairs between France and China the perfidious reports in the native papers concerning Canton outrage, and the publication of grossly the same, are all matters calculated to pro- feeling of animosity towards foreigners, would, we imagine, be made the occasion for a and any trifling affair at the present juncture rising. We may say that it is well known amongst the Chinese that the real cause for threatening to destroy the Foochow Catholic Chapel, was through canards about the Canton not, and the report that foreigners had been massacred. It may be remembered, that before the Wu-Shi Shan outrage was perpetrated, warn- given through the medium of the Herald, scarcely remind our readers of the dread con were repudiated as idle fears, and we need sequences, which it is to be hoped may be pre- vented from ever again occurring in Foochow. -Herald

The following review of the recently published autobiography of the well known inventor of the seam-hammer appears in a recent lasue of the London Daily News:-

It, ran four or five miles and carried eight passengers, and Mr. Nasmyth says that he turned the waste steam-pipe into the chimney to create a draught, not knowing that George Stephenson and others had adopted the same method. This was the secret which when once hit upon made the high-speed of the loco motive possible. In 1820 he came to London, attracted by the fame of Henry Maudsley's works. Mr. Maudsley refused to take him as pupil-ap- Prentice; but Nasmyth showed him a working model of a steam engine; and Maudsley engaged him at once.
