Sons: years ago a Scottish boy from n the country came in to Edinburgh to 9 attend the University. The hour for Dr. Blackie’s class arrived and the, the turn came for the new comer to read. A glance from the professor showed that the book was held in the left hand and the prompt direction 1 came “Take the hook in your right a hand, Sir!” “ I ha na richt han’, 5 Sir,” was the somewhat abashed re- ply of the lad.” The professor not 1 hearing the reply now thundered out i “ Take the book in your right hand, ‘ Sir!” The boy’s only reply was by 1 holding up the right arm with the , dangling sleeve so helplessly pro- . claiming “ I ha na richt han’, Sir.” The students swayed by a suddden passion actually hissed their profes- ‘ sor for his seeming rudeness, but Dr. 9 Blackie though somewhat gruff in l exterior was every inch a gentleman, and seeing his error, walked down to , the lad, threw his arms around him ‘ 1 nd apologized so kindly for having ll vounded his feelings that the boys. ready to acknowledge the nobility of the professor as they had been to i censure his supposed rudeness. now ’ gave him a hearty cheer.

He is one of the young men in whom we have always had confidence, and feel that we can confidently recommend him. On Wednesday morning last the body of an unknown man, apparently sixty or sixty-five years of age, was found in a dying condition on the roadside near Vickers, by Mr. Wm. Johnston, manager of McKechnies’ Mills at Glenroaden. Immediately a conveyance was secured to take him to town, but on the way here he died without showing any signs of con- sciousness. Nothing is known as to} {the cause. His clothing was wet as if he had fallen into the water, but there was no sign of liquor. and as he had $95 in his possession, his ex- posure was not from necessity. The following letter found on his person is the only clue to his identity, and the Thos. E Patterson, whose signa- ture appears, was telegraphed to at once for information.
