' He had large speculative transactions in the commercialworld ; but as they were, in his opinion, of a nature which did not . require the daily drudgery and applica- tion of theprincipal, he had long since shifted the drudgery and much of the r ponsibility of business on to the shoul- l ders of his condential clerk. ' Mr. Rut- i land` was rich, and unmarried, but he kept no establishment; his club-cham- bers,`when in town, being his usual resi- ' deuce. A home in London would seem, indeed, to have been a needless super- uity and a positive encumbrance to him, soerratic he was in his movements, and so uncertain in his intentions. he stuck to business, as Arthur Kemp had once elegantly observed, like a leech-'-like a leech, sir, for a week, for two weeks, for a month together. On these occasions he arrived at the count- ing-house, overhauled accounts, :_in a hearty, `condent, careless sort of way, and stayed late at night. Then, tiring probably of this monotony, he would sud- denly take his departure, with the .,la_conic information: 1- shall not be 7bac'k,:for- a. few days, Mr. Gillmah; you know what is to be done--good `day, gentlemen. Not unfre- few weeks, and when he again made his appearance,iit- would ooze out, as a mat- ter of ind.i`erence,`tl;at Mr. Rutland had - been on atour in the Highlands; or `had been shooting or hunting, as the case `pmightibe, in.Leic,estershire ; or had taken _a, short run on" the continent. _ At times, ` But Besil was not called upon to stop his ears with cotton,-if he had had any handy, which he had not, nor with any ` other material - substance; and failing this-thoughA he shut out the voices as completely "as. he could, and rustled the leaves of` the great `folio book, in which hewas writing, when any one of them rose to its extreme height-he could not fail to be impressed with the idea-and acvery unpleasant one it was--that some crisis in counting-house history was im- pending. He thought this the more when, on looking for ubooka ledger, or a cash book (it must have been :1 cash book) to which lie had occasion to refer, he found it`was gone." 1-`____i_A__V V q.-.._ ..- - ___ __.__.. -- .. .....

I give the particulars I have been enabled to glean. Armstrong, on the 29th of June, 1859, sailed as mate of the barque Kitty, of and from Newcastle-on-Tyne, which sailed with cargo consigned to the Hudson Bay Company. She was commanded by Alexander Elis, and besides her crew of able-bodied seamen she tookaouta few passengers who intended to settle in the locality. The voyage from the out- set was rather boisterous and protracted, for the vessel did not get off the American shore till the begining of August. On the 11th of that month she was enveloped in a fog, when o` Cape Resolution, and she was suddenly surrounded by huge mountains of` ice, so as to render escape almost hopeless. The bergs could be seen through the fog gradually nearer and nearer, until at last the vessel was touched by them. The crew and passengers were naturally panic-striken, but theyvsoon recovered and commenced their efforts for the saving of their lives. Two boats were got out, and as much provisions as could be put into them in the hurry was stowed away; and one, under the command of` the captain, the other under that of` Armstrong, the mate left the ship s side, justas the bergs closed upon the ill-fated vessel and crushed her into pieces; she then went down . The boats managed to get out through an opening, but only to find themselves in a field of ice, consisting of oating masses, the pieces which sailed continually threatening destruction at every moment. For days the two boats beat about,` in vain making attempts to reach the open, sea, while each morning broke with the same dreary prospect. -It was then found that the cold was beginning to take effect upon them, and the fearful symptoms of the frost-biteibecame painfully apparent. Remedies, such aswere within their power, were applied, but they were useless, for the poor sutferers gradually became worse, and dropped off one after another. The survivors performed the sorrowful duty `of con- signina` their comrades to the deep, thinking, as they did so, that perhaps the next would be one of themselves. The crew worked willingly and as constantly as their physical infirmities would permit them. Day after day did they work on, hoping that their efforts would be successful, or that some welcome sail would heave in sight, and rescue them from their unfortunate situation ; but none appeared. At last the boats separated in a fog, and the captain?s boat was never heard of again. Armstrong, with the few persons in his boat still surviving, pursued their course. The miseries which they had hitherto endured were now augmented by hunger; their stock was gradually becoming smaller, and the allow- ance to each man was curtailed, and the little crew in the boat was getting fewer in number, while the survivors were becoming weak and sickly. Those who were sinking under liese privations, as their hour approached, became raving maniacs. ` They could not recognise their companions; while scenes which they had ` witnessed at home in their family circles were tion they .beheld their sisters, mothers, or wives, as the case might be, and endeavoured to clasp them, and soon died in the most fearful agonies. Such were the scenes which the survivors witnessed frequently as one was snatched from their number. Two or three besides Armstrong only remained when the welcome cry of ` Land was raised, and the men strained their eyes and asked one another could it be real? It was at Thd ecstacy. of such a discovery, after being sixty-two days in an open boat, and suffering such privations in a polar region was too much for them, and all, with the exception of Ann- strong. as they reached the long-wished-for land, sank to the ground exhausted and died. Thus, the whole of the screw, with the exception of` one, had died, and it is no wonder that he dropped upon his knees and returned thanks to his God that he was spared. Having obtained a little fest. he wandered along the shore and was so fortunate as to fall in with some Esquimaux on a huutingexpediation. They conducted him to until he had recruited his `strength. They then brought him to a. place. where some Moravian missionaries were residing, who forwarded him to St. John's in the early part ofthe present year. Up to the present no tidings could be got of` the vessel, and it was long since supposed that every soul had gone to the bottom. .

Cooped fowls should be supplied with fresh food three times daily ; namely, at daybreak, at midday, and at roosting time. As much us they can eat should be given them on 8ll('h occa- sions; but no more than can he devoured before the new meal. Should any be left, it should be removed and given to other fcwls, as, if kept, it is apt to become sour, when the birds will not eat freely. The troughs for the soft meal should he ecalded out daily, which can only be done conve- niently by having a. supplyof spare ones. In ad- dition to salt food, a supply of clean fresh water must be given daily, otherwise the grinding ac- tion of the gizzard, which is necessary to the due digestion of the -food, does not go on satisfactorily -the supply of a little sliced cabbage, or some. turnip tops, or.a green leaf to pick occasionally.` being all that is required. A variation in the diet will be found very conducive to an increased appetite, and, therefore, the occasional substitu- tion of a feed of boiled barley for the slaked oat- meal is desirable. Some feeders have a division in their trough, or better still, a mall extra trough, which always contains some grains for the fowls to pick at. Should the birds be required vu-ry fnt some muttonsuet or trimmings of the loin may be chopped up and scalded with the meal, or they may be boiled with the milk or water, preparatory to its being poured over the food, and the fat of fowls so futted will be found exceeding] y rm.

Canadian farmers have just cause to be proud of their Exhibition. Each Annual Fair indicates rapid improvement, not only in stock, but in all agricultural and horticnllurnl `productions: and it may be safely asserted that the farmers of Canada West are second to none ` on this side of the Atlantic. ` Uulluus There was a good show of pigs--the improved Berkshires predominating. From their appear- ance, we suppose the improvement has been effected by crossing with the Essex. There were very few Sutfolks, and only a few pens of York- shire or other large breeds. One Lancashire sow, exhibited by-G. E. Cresswell, of llnrpurhny, at- tmeted attention from her immense size. She measured 7 feet 7 inches in length, and `7 feet girth under the fore legs. ' ' The show of agricultural implements was not as large as usual. The implements and machines of Canada have a. substantial, English look. lron harrows, long-handled plows, turnip-drills, etc., reminded us of an English Fair ground. There were six or eight different kinds of turnip drills For sowing one or two ridges at n. time--indi- eating that the culture of root crops is greatly on ' the increase. 'l`|....... ...-- _ c_- _u ,,, n- .. - uuu u it IS unen surpassed In any country. But to us the most interesting feature of the Exhibition was the wheat. For the Best two bushels of Winter Wheat, ` there were 83 entries; for Spring Wheat, 84 entries. The Canada Company" offer a stand- ing prize of 25 for the best 25 bushels of_winter wheat--the prize wheat to be given to the Com- puny for distribution. For this prize there were 32 entries, or 800 bushels! Think of it, ye wheat growers of the Genesee Ccuntry," nnd let us look to our laurelsl A `We could, doubtless, mnke as goods. display at our own State Fair, `but certes, we never have. The judges were provided with an instrument for determining with accuracy and dispatch the weight per bushel, and they told us that not one of these samples weighed less ` than 63 lbs. per bushel, and the heaviest was 66; lbs.

Lei- cesters, South Downs and Cheviots--were well represented. The show of Cotswolds and Lei- cesters was truly magnicent. Fred. W. Stone, of Moreton Lodge, Guelph, O.

These sheep urenttructing more and'rn`ore attention in Canada. Their great site and mutton-producing qualities render them de- servedly popular. There can be little doubt that they are the most protable bread of mutton sheep we have. The Sweepstake for the Best long- woolled ram of any age or breed, was awarded to a Cotswold bred by Mr. Stone and owned by Geo. Miller, of Markham.
