      When A Certain Motion Was About To Be Pu...

      When a certain motion was about to be put at one of the recent meetings of . Convocation held in the J erusalem Chamber , a well-known reverend speaker suddenly moved a rider . The idea taken in connection with the locality , famous as it is for a certain animal , was certainly cruelly suggestive .

      A dispute has lately arisen on the subject of the Greek national dish . Surely , there can be no question in the matter , seeing that there have been 31 different ministries at Athens since the midsummer of 1863 . It must be a species of " Cabi 7 iet" pudding .

      The Owl publishes a paragraph to the effect that " Mr . Vernon Harcourt , Q . C ., has consented to act as arbitrator in the case of the Countess d'Altegrac V . Lord Willoughby De Eresby . " That this piece of information should be thrust prominently forward as " news " by the small sixpenny sheet in question , says very much for its own vulgarity , but very little for its estimation of its readers .

      Connected with the very demonstrative meeting that recently took place at Hietzing , on the occasion of the celebration of King Georges' " Silver wedding , " perhaps the most touching , because the most domestic incident , was the conduct of the good people of Gottingen .

As the Prussian Government has been , informed that the gathering was of a purely spontaneous , and " un-organized" cliaractei * , the idea was as happy as it was original . The Gottingen sausages may serve as a good set-off

      against the very suspicious assemblage of 800 Hanoverians on Austrian territory , which has been described as a most decided Jorced-meet .
