protected from the crowds," for, it is said, "no such crowds have gathered to see an exe- cution for many years as were gathered together on the Sunday afternoon at 4.30 of the clock" Thousands of the people were impelled to wards that bloody spot on that day.

THE LATE CAPTAIN A. M. BISBEE,

Though not wholly unexpected, the demise of Captain.A. M. Bisbee, for many years the Harbour Master at Shanghai, came as a shock to his numerus friends there. Captain Bisbee 'passed peacefully away at 5 o'clock on the 7th inst, after a very short illness. The deceased was born at Plymton, Plymouth Co. Mass. on the aand October, 1841. His father, and we believe also his grandfather, were shipmasters In the days of his boyhood Plymouth was, we understand, a great centre of shipping at a time when the American sailing ship traffic was at its reaith. He was nurtured and brought up in an atmosphere of maritime enterprise and believed that the only life worth living was that of the adventurous sailor. To be a shipmaster as his forebears had been before him, to even cually become a trader and a shipowner; to of a fine breed of seamen--that appears to have marry and do his part towards the continuance

A tale is told in this connection of an old iron-paddlèr who was exercising his son's "pup,” when the brute laid hold of the calf of his leg. Bear it, fayther," exclaimed the hopeful, it will be the makin' of the pup." And so the old man bore it, in a good cause."

The recreations of the Black Country to day are on the old fines, but somewhat modified. There is plenty of rabbit coursing, foot-racing, and pigeon-flying. Saint Mon day is religiously kept, and no one would even think of working on that day. Rabbit coursing matches is the particular sport indulged in just now, and what are locally known as "Ledgers." The name "Ledger" is probably derived from the great race, but in the Black Country it is only known in connection with rabbit coursing. Many hundreds attend these meetings, and dozen men have a part share in a dog who in excitement runs high, as sometimes half-a-
