Striking Instance oC Integrity.-About six years ago merchant became bankrupt. A statement of his affairs being laid before his creditors, showed that the effects would yield l2s. on the pound, which was ultimately real ized, and paid to all concerned. In 1928, the gentleman left Leith for Van Dieman's Land. where he was more successful than he had been ir this country. A gentleman in this place lately received letter from him, in- closing bills sufficient to pay the old deficit of 8s on the pound, with interest from the time of his failure, besides an additional sum of GSO to pay any contingent expenses that may have arisen. What makes this the more praiseworthy is the fact that he received full and free discharge before leaving this country. It is in contemplation to present him with piece of silver plate, to show that, if the debtor has been honest, the creditors have been gratefu.-ScOtSman.

 A letter appears in the Waterford Mirror, addressed by Mir. Joseph Williams, of Ross, twho fortunately was saved in the Venus,) to a friend in Waterford. The following forms a postscript. The subjec, is above all eulogy it will be read with admiration by all :- "Henry Snow, Esq. of Larkfeld, county Of Kilkenny, near Waterford. The saving of this gentleman reflects singular credit upon one of the crew, whose name we much re- gret that we have not learned. After being some hours upon the top of one of the masts, NIrSnow, exhausted &benumbed, was bidding farewell to this world, and preparing for the fate that seemed inevitable, when the sailor cried out from the top of the other mast 4'Avast, not so fast, my hearty-IIl be with you presently" Scarcely sooner said than done. Jack swam over to him. Jacks heart. he said, was quite warm, and Jack spoke truth. "HOld on," said he, ''with one hand, and thrust the other into my bosom 1; : I'll warrant you it wi! soon warm." He then made MT. Snow shift hands. and kept him alternately holding on with one hand, and warming the other, until the arrival ofthe long delayed relief. With the ancients, so warm a heart, such heroic humanity, might be re- svarded with a statue with the moderns, such conduct should not go unrewarded.
