When they liad dug down ‘e the lower bed of the teritiary strata they camé upou some bones which appeared pecniiar to them. They sent to the the house for their master. who, upon seeing them comprehended the Lnport- ance of the discovery at such a depth, He immediately ordered the work to be ttonped and sent to the city of Maranham foraDrs, Brandao, Sognet*Barhosa, and Jausen Peneira. who, after studying the subject, agreed that they were human ‘boves ina fossil state. ‘They repaired \'0 the place, and after twenty-tour hours

I'he Scot Abroad.

lt is a Scotch proverb that ** A Seeta- man,a crow, anda Neweast!e grindstone travel a the world over.” The Scotch, very singulariy, are far less insularthas the English ; it is said they ditfer less freim the generai type of Europeans ; they adapt themselves more tothe habiis and modes of thought of other nations ; it is said, and that on the Continent, they mark them- selves fav leas strongly, and conform to for- ici Ways more easily and naturally than the English. Itis far more usual te meet with a continentalised Seotchman than continentalised Englishman. A story was told during the Crimean War of the disap- pointment of an Englishman whe went eut to the East as an interpreter, and whose ruling passion was a hatred of everything Seoich ; but strolling through the camp witha Turkish officer, and abusing the Scotch to his heart’s content, to his asten- ishment Hassaen Bey,the Turk, broke ont, “Til tell ye what, ma mon, gin ve daun lowse yere tongue upon my eountry like thaat, il gie ye a cloot on the lug that'll mak’ it tingle ive this til Hallow- een! The thunderstruck Englishman stammered ont, ** Why, my good wan, 1 thought you were a Tork" ‘ And sae I am a ‘Turk the noo,ma braw chiel,’ said the angry Glasgow Mussulman, *‘ but my faither’s auld Jeather breeks, never travel- led farther than just fra Glasgow ju Gree- neck and back again; but When | gong ham —nas Vil do or it’s lan: PN just be Wully Forbes, son o avld Daddy Forbes 6’ the Gorbs!s, for as’ that’s edie and gine?’ Presently a splendidly dressed Hungarian came up and said to the Turk, * Wully, men, there's a truce the now for twa hoursd; just come wi me end we'll hee a glass of

whurky thegither.” It was the same vith a Russian officer, until the Englishman ex-

clained, “ Bless my heart! is everybody en earth a Scotchman! Perhaps I am one myself without knowing it.” Bunt when the Russien Geners! Taraset! exclaimed, ** Hh Donald Cawimeil! are you here?” and ibrahim Pasha burs: forth simultaneously, i\‘*What Sandy Robertson, can this be you!” ‘the Englishman burst forth, “It is all over, Turks, Russians, ilungarians, English—all Scotchmen? Its more than I can bear. I shall go home ; there's nothing left for me to do here. | cawe out as an interpreter, but if all the nations of Europe talk nothing but Scotch, what use can 1 be!
