"DUKE FkRDINAKD AND THE AI.CHYMIST.— During the Seven Years' War an alchymist offered his services to Ferdinand, Duke of Brunswick, for the purpose of converting iron into gold. "By nomeans! answered the Duke: " I want iron to fight Hie French, and as for gold, I get it from England. But if you are able to convert mice and rats into calves and oxen, you are my man. The former make great havoc in military stores ; and the latter ,1 stand in great; need of.— Once a WseJi. , ' ■ . Shipwrecked Mahinehs' Society —Although the weather during the past month has not been of i that boisterous nnd stormy nature which usually- cha- : racterises the winner 'season, and causes so many wrecks and casualties'at sea, this .society has had heavy drains on its reicources. No less than 90 widow», 108 orphans, 25 parents; and 450 mariners Ikit.b been relived at a cost of £1,040. A monthly expen : diture like this is, perhaps, the most -convinciug pToof of the need which exists for centralising charitable contributions in a society whose only object is to relieve distress in its general and most comprehensive form. The 'mariners themselves continue to take a deep interest In the welfare of this society by contributing to its support, but their contributions •would be comparatively valueless w^tluthe co-opera-tion and assistance of the public at 1 jrge. An interesting report was made at the^'-ipually monthly meeting from Messrs. Ryan, Brothers, and Co., honorary agents for Limerick, in all the allusions to the humane and noble conduct of Captain Fudge, of the Holyrood steamer, in saving the lives of eight men whom he picked up at sea in a gale of wind, and who must have perished'but for his a assistance. He generously entertsuned them on board, and landed 'them'safely on tlie Skerries, from whence they had been blown off in their little bark-by the violence Of tb« storm aud tlw waves.— Loyd's Paper.
