%i n a professional capacity, and haying each time met with marked and merited success.” i It is related of the witty Dominican monk Bocco that he had a great dislike to tobacco, and when once preaching to a crowd of Spanish sailors, he astounded them by telling them there were no Splbiish saints in heaven. A few, he said, had been admitted, but they smoked so many cigars that they made the Holy Virgin sick, and St. Peter set his wits to work to get them out. At length he proclaimed that a bull fight was to be held outside the gates of Paradise. Thereupon every Spanish saint, without exception, ran old to see the tight, and St. Peter immediately closed the gate, and took care never to admit another Spaniard. By the large screw steamship Somersetshire, there has been brought out here, a number of live stock, inti resting to flockmasters, farmers, and otlnrs. ’lhe sheep, several of which are for Mr Austin, of Barwon park, are of the pure L' icostfrsh.re breed, and during the voyage a number of lambs were dropped. The horses import* d are three Clydesdale entires, sent out here by MrNisbett, who is expected to return to Melbourne in the Superb or Suffolk, w;t:i several more draught horses of superior breed. - Those on board the Someisetshire are—Young Champion, rising two years old ; Justice, rising three years old; and Conqueror, rising four years old. The whole of the stock is in line order. Advertisements received too late for Classification. HAL L . jyj" A S 0 N I C TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 10.
