Hugh Miller .. was born in th' town of Cron:tarty in 1802. On th paternal side he was decended from at long line of hardy; sea-farioe, ances- tors. For more than a hundred years before his bit th,not one of them had been laid in the church -yard of his native place. He was_ only five years. of age when his father was lost at sea. His mother, with three child- ren, was left poor but not indicamt. He received the orthrairy° eileatioli then obtainable- at a. Scottish parish school 'nit was by. ILO means remark= able for quick apprehension or; in- dustry. fp. truth, until his • seven- teenth year he WAS conspicuous fcr nothing but a love •of fun and adventure, therein sadly disappoint- ing the hope's and wiallea 'of two 'well-to-do uncles, who designedhim for the Scottish kirk. In 4 his eighteenth year he became appren- tice to a stone mason; and his whole Aaraater seems to have undergone a singular change. His letters at this early age are amongat Ole most extraordinary productions we have ever lead. Comparing them with those' of Butns, whose eduoatio' al lidvantages were at least equ'l. ly , cood we are conqtraitted to acknw- , , , ledge that iu shrewd observation aad reflection, purity and grace of I style, and dignity of sentiment, ,'ie Cromarty mason far surpasses he Ayrshire tuatier. For: fifteen .years Miller was editor of the Ediabuith Witness, and participated in „, all the excite men t that , attended th/ fo u nd - ation and success of the ...Wee Kirk of -Scotland. His discoveries as a geologist are familiar ti) the whole scientific world—nor will the Christ- ian world soon forget the earnestness and genius with which he strove to ,eeconeile these and kindred truths with the truths of revealed religion. —Peter Bayne's " Life of Hugh Miller." - Lord Brougham A Highlander? Lord Brougham mentions, in thei volume of his autobiography, recent- ly published, with evident satis- faction—with a pride even • worthy .of a Highlander—that he owed all that had raised him above respec- table mediocrity in life to the fact -that, through his mother, lie inheri- ted the blood of the honorable Highland families &man and Kin- oohaMoidat t: His -Lordship says s' 1 think, then 1 ani fairly entitled to argue that 1, at least, owe much to the Celtic blood which my mdther brought from the clans Struan and Kinloeh-Mthdart." That his Mother was a Robertson there can' be no doubt,. and in so far Lord Brougham • might claim kindred with the Perth- shire clan, Robertson of Straan. His connection with that house was that of a relative by blood ; but with :the Argyllhhire family of linloch- • Moidarc his relationship was that of affinity only, as the following will make sufficiently phyla :—A son of Principal Robertsoz., a colonel in the army, who Was trained in his pro- fession under the COM Maud of the Duke of Kent, the father of her Majesty, married. the heiress of Kinloch-Moidart-:-Miss Macdonald —audit was that marriage that con- stituted Lord B von gh DM'S connection with the Macdonalds of Kinloch- Moidart. Any man—even one so klistinguished by an almost. universal 4-, aenius as was Loid Bouelaarn— ini,ght well be proud to claim kind- red with a family the chief of which. followed the fortunes of " bonnie Prince Charlie" in the '45, and for which his estate was lost, though subsequently restored ; still, mani- festly, Lord Brougharn was not in that pcsition. 0 STEALING AND FORGERY. -7—A few -days ago George H. Forsyth, a young man formerly employed as brake- man on the Great Western Railway, and son of a well-to-do farmer re- siding near Dundas, stole from the ;station -masters office in this city, three pay tickets belonging to brake- man. named respectively Springton, Allan, and 'Burke. Two of the tickets called for $38.70 each, and the other $33 and some cents. After the theft he coolly entered the Telegraph office and forged the • names of the men who had a right to the tickets. A few minutes be- fore eight in the morning, he entered • the pay car and received. the amounts mentioned. Forsyth then went to • Mr. Batty's on King street, and bought a $3 ring, and while the proprietor of the store had his back turned, ile pocketed another ring, bitt not being expert enough, he was detected, and made to pay for it. • He then proceeded to London to Mr. Carapbell's. jewellery store, Dundas street, purchased. a gold watch and chain for $35, lady's ring at $7,,5 0, a pair of ear -rings and a brooch, all amounting to $55. He • then went to Prairie Siding, nine miles west of Chatham, and stopped with a family named Belleau,_ in- tending to marry one of the daugh- ters. The evening after Forsyth. left London, the case was placed in the hands of Mr. Begley, Chief of Police of G. W. 11., who, after a v'gorous pursait of the thief, which lasted:five days, succeeded in -arres- ting hint at Be leaux's house early on Tuesday mornink.—Hantilton Times. esesmumk LA ' And snrr unding (pun ry !
