Note from the Cathedral at Seville.—
"El Excmo Sr Dr Don Nicolas Wiseman, Obispo Coadjutor de Birmingham, y Rector del Collegio de Oscott, por decreto de 2 de Enero de 1845, concedió 40 dias de Indulgentia per cada Padre-Nuestro, ó Credo á Nuestri Señor Jesu Cristo, ó un Ave-Maria á su Santissima Madre, ó un Padre-Nuestro en honor del Santo Patriarcha Sr So Domingo, cujas imagenes se veneran en esta Capilla, como por cualquier palabra afetuosa ó jaculatoria con devotion."

Riddles for the Post Office.—The following ludicrous direction to a letter was copied verbatim from the original and interesting document:
"too dad Tomas
hat the ole oke
otchut
I O Bary pade
Sur plees to let ole feather have this sefe."
The letter found the gentleman at "The Old Oak Orchard, Tenbury." I saw another letter, where the writer, after a severe struggle to express "Scotland," succeeded at length to his satisfaction, and wrote it thus, "stockling." A third letter was sent by a woman to a son who had settled in Tennessee, which the old lady had thus expressed with all phonetic simplicity, "10 S C."
