with an alertness which in a bi-ped might
have been termed ingenuity, removed the

in the cask, perhaps because it lay most con-
venient to the pecjilater, was about to take

It is rather to be wondered at, that in this
Colony, where immense quantities of excel-
lent straw may be procured, a course green
grass is preferred for the purposes of thatch-
ing. A straw roof is considered in England
to last seven years without repair : it may be
used in thinner lays than any other, and be
consequently far lighter, and much better
adapted to the slight-built cottage. Besides,
as the grass is used before it has had time to
dry, it becomes heated, and moulders to an
ash, from which, when damp, an anwhole-
some vapour is exhaled by the heat of the
fire, which must be attended with pernicious
consequences to the cottage family ; but well

On Wednesday last a cask of Porter was

On Sunday Iast, the new Vessel was launch-
ed, after an indefatigable exertion of two
days. On Saturday morning the props were
knocked away from under her, and she was
got down to the water's edge, against the
evening tide, when she began to stir, but
the pall of the windlass, at which many per-
sons were at work suddenly giving way, had
nearly been productive of the most serious
consequencs : One of the bars, which flew
with incredible force, struck the pilot Mr.
W. Bowen, across the thighs, which from
the violence of the blow, be at the moment
conjectured to have broken. Mr Kable's
son, by the sudden recoil, was thrown over-
board, and one of the working hands received
a severe wound in the neck : the project of
geting her off was now necessarily abandoned
until the tide should again serve. The whole
of Sundav was occupied in forming a deep
bason round the vessel and an open channel
extending as far as the low-water mark. - -
