came up, eat quarntiiies of fish, of the
trout species, were observed at Exchange

and the negroes caught numbers of them
with their hands. Yesterday afternoon,
the fish again made their appearance. and
aeveral negroes utasuiomnedi themselves on
the fenders of the ship. hanging jusi above
the surface of she water, and with shrimp

THE KENIU(KIAN IN MALTA.
A gentletnan in this city attached to
"Old Irousides" during her last cruise, has
permitted us to dip into hisijournal, which
is as rich as Calhoun's gold mind. The
following is peculiarly fine. .
"We passeJ three weeks in Malta,
waiting for despatches. Various plans
were devised to kill time. and never did it.
pass so pleasautly away. Fishing. row
ing. dininer. vine %upperN. etc.. formed
our principal amusement; and as the har
bor was filled with vsse-ls of all nations,
an interchange of courtesies was kept up
notil our auchor was weighed and 'Old
fronsides' again before the breeze. --
-At tine of the eniertainm.-nts given on
shore by the otieers or a British frigate,
the couversation turued upon rifle shoot
ing. which led to an animated discussio,
in which our officers took part.
'I have often heard.' said the c6mman;
der of the Thunderer. 'that you havqr fel

who are reckoted great shots with the

State.'.
Whast say you, then, gentlemen, to .a
shooting snatch to mnorow morning?'
'Agree-d, with all our hearis,' said the
Yankees
The next marnin;; the party met in a
beautiful grove, and pl aced their target
seve-nty-tive yards distant. The English
ride is daliercui from the American, the
barrel heing shorter. atnd the stock beavi
er. six picked amen rroms the Thunderer
were on the grund. all uf whom fared. No
one. hont ever. 'cut the pape-r,' (the size of
a dollar.j although several of the balls were
close to it.
The shots were considered excellent by
asie Etuitish amat Frcnch offieers present.
acnd the nattives wecre greatly astoniahed
at the pro~ienacy of thae rileamen. The
commsnta.:der of the Thuuderer, turning to
th etr~e'r, rsid, I~th a smuile:
-Was.sg.la doou thaink ''f that? I take it,

Fre-nchi eslicer.
'Jre s montria.' said the Kentuckcian.
-IFire away,' said the Euglishuman.
'I'll bet a wine supper for all hands,'
said the Kenituckian, 'that I make three
shots. e-very one of which will be better
than any yet madie, and each succeeding
one better than the first.'
'Il bet s wine supp~er for all hands,'
sqidl the Kientuckian, 'that I make three
shot., every oune of which will be better
than the first.'
Ill take it,' said the Englishman, smi
ling.
The Kentuckian slowly raised a rifle he
brought frotm homne, and fired. The paper
was cut! The second fire was better than
the first, and the third 'bored the centre'
Nothaing could depict the surprise of all
present: the Enoglishman 'acknowledged
the corsn,' and said ho was satisfied. TJhe
Ketuckian enjoyed a hearty laugh, de
elaring~ it was nothing to what he could do
-that he 'would be ashamed of such firing
inold Kaintuck. Rolling a quid from one
quarter of his capacious 'receiver' to an
othber, he continued:
'I must have another shot to show yon
wvhat can he done with a rifle, and en con
vince my French friend I am not boast

The whole party stood silent, In a row,
and the Kentuckian retreated about forty
yards. making the distaned from .the tree
to whsere he stood, near one hbfndred and
twenty yards. Ordering a paper of the
size as the other to be pot: i the same
place, he re-loaded-drew his broad brim

deliberate aim, blazedl away.
'That was rather toes low,' be said, 'the
