MlSCELLAlifEOtl the weather and the canal. The Albany Journal of last evening says that saow fell m that city yestorday from 3 o'clock in the morning; until 1 o'clock, P. M. It then cleared off warm. From the Buffalo Commercial of Sot. 22. Early Winter?The earth is covered with mow six inches deep, and sleigh bells are jingling merrily in our streets. We hear of like evidence of winter both east and west. Between Lockport nd Rochester it is said the snow is more than a foot deep. This is very remarkable, almost un?rfr?d^nt*d for thic rpirinn ??h*rr arp ar.rim. onied to wait till Christmas, or New Year, for our fir*t sleighing. Of course the canal is fast locked with ice for the present. It is hardly possible that this weather can continue, and we con. fidentiy look for a breaking up, a recurrence of our usual fall weather, and a resumption of canal navigation ; but, truth to say, things don't look uiuch like it.?Ibid. SIR WALTER SCOTT AND A SCOTCH BLACKSMITH. It happened, at a small country town, that Scott wJdcnly required medical advice for one of his servants; and, ou inquiring if there was any doc. tor at the place, ho was told there were two, one long established and the other a new comer. The ) utter gentleman, being luckily found at home, j soon made his appearance?a grave, sagacious- j looking personage, attired in black, with a shovel , hat, in whom, to his utter astonishment, he rccog. i ni/.ed a Scotch blacksmith, who had formerly prac. t sed, with a toleiable success, as a veterinary operator in the neighborhood of Ashcatiel. " How, in all the world!" exclaimed he, " can it be pos. siblc that this is John Lundio ?" " In troth is't, your lionor; just a' that's of hira." " Well, but let us hear ; you were a horse-doctor before; now, if tLA^mc> ?*At. am o m.n .

The minister of a certain parish returning from church, where he had been doing duty found an oid womisn, one of his parishioners, lying on the ground drunk. " Ab ! Nell, is that you," exclaimed the good man, " do you know where all drunkards go ?"?" Aye to be sure, I do," cried Nell, 44 they go where a drap of good drink's to be got." A Man's Head Bitten ott in his Hammock by a Tiger.?Among the local intelligence received from Cayenne, under date of August 1, we find the following:?During tho preceding j week a mulatto, namod Polo Vigne, and several j other men employed on the estate of M. Vigne, at Macouria, near Cayenne, after their day's work retired to their hammocks, which were slung according to the custom in that climate, between I two trees in tlie open air. Some of the negroes j ?orr annointed to watch bv turns, and keep fires | blazing, to scare away wild beasts, with which | the country abounds, but in the middle of the night ' the watchman fell asleep and suffered the fires to go out. Suddenly the whole party were roused hy wdd bowlings and other frightful noises, and | looking out they descried in the gloom a tiger running away with something in his mouth, which it was impossible for them to distinguish. On mustering their numbers to ascertain whether any one was missing, Polo Vignc did not make his appearance. On resorting to the poor fellow's hammock, bis body was found in it, but without his head, which had been torn off, and was, no d>ubt, the object discerned in the tiger's mouih. FAMILY MEDICINES.
