Fish StOry.-When fashions are worn out in Paris the milliners send their anti quated articles to the North that is to Sweden and Russia. A vessel deeply la- den with such merchandise, says London paper, was run down in the channel of St. Petersburg. Next day, a salmon was caught in the Neva, dressed in white sat- in petticoat; and in the same net were found two large cod-fish, with muslin handkerchiefs round their necks. The shark and porpoises were observed in gowns of the latest taste, and hardly was there fish that did not display some of the latest Parisian fashions that ever visi- ted the North.

 In reading the above burlesque we could but smile at the cunning fish who put on the gowns, the petticoats and handker- chiefs, but would not touch the corsets, not one of them. They were too cunning to attempt making slender waist half way between the gills and the tail by means of French corsage.-Badger's Mes.
