His constant appearance in the graveyard'has caused many enquiries to be. made regarding him, and efforts-out of number have been made from time to time to get possession of him. The old curator, of course, stands up as; the next claimant to Mr. Trail, and offered-to'pay the. tax himself.rather than have "Bobby ?;~^i Grey friars*' Bobby," to allow him his full name���������put out of the way. ���������Scotsman." -'"''.'-.'. - V STRANGE STORY OF-A DO&- ' .-��������� . A very singular and interesting- occurrence was lately brought, to, light- in the . burgh icourt, Edinburgh, by the; hearing; of a summons in; regard to a dog tax. Eight and . ahalf. years ago, it seems, a man named Gray, pf whom iipthing now. is \ known, except that he was poor; an d 1 i ved in a qtiie t ��������� way in so me obscure part of thei.tawn.T.w;as.buried in Old Greyiriars1 Churchyard. His grave, levelled . by the hand of time, and, unmarked- by any stone, is scarcely discernible ;.but, though no human interest. would seem to attach'to it, the sacred spot has not been wholly disregarded and forgotten. ;During all these year?, the dead fnan's faithful dog has kept' watch and guard over the grave, and it was this animal for which the collectors sought to re- ��������� cover the tax. James Brown, the old curator of the burial ground, remembers Gray's funeral, and the dog, a scotch .terrier, was, he says, one of the most conspicuous of the mourners. The grave was closed in as usual, and next morning, " Bobby,"-as the dog is called, was found lying on the newly-made mouud. This was an innovation which old James could not permit, for there was an order at the gate stating, in the' most intelligible ..characters, that dogs were not admitted. "Bobby" was accordingly dri ven out, but next morning he was there again, and for the second time was discharged. The third morning was cold and wet, and when tbe old man saw tbe faithful animal, in spite of all chastisement, still lying; shivering on the grave, he took pity on him, and gave him some food. This recognition of his devotion gave " Bobby" the right .to make the churchyard his home ; and from that time to the present,he has never spent a night away from his master's grave. Often in bad weather attempts have been made to keep him within doors, but by dismal howls he has succeeded in making it Known that this interference is not agreeable, to him, and latterly he.has always been allowed to have his way. At almost, any time during the day, he may be seen in or about the churchyard ; and no matter how rough the night may. be. nothing can induce him to forsake the hallowed spot, whose identity, despite the irresistible obliteration it lias undergone, he has so faithfully preserved. " Bobby'' has many friends, and the tax-gatherers have by no means proved his enemies. A weekly treat of steaks was long allowed him by Sergeant Scott, of the Engineers ; but for more than six years he has been regularly fed by Mr. John Trail, of the Restaurant, Greyfriars'place. He is constant and punctual in his calls, being guided in his mid-day visits by the sound of the time- gun. On the ground of;" harboring" the dog in this way, proceedings were taken against Mr. Trail'for payment of the tax. The defendant expressed his willingness, could he claim the dog, to be ��������� responsible for the tax ; but so long as the animal refused to attach himself to any one, it was impossible, be Tub.New Dominion* ani> its Deuts.���������As already stated, it is provided that the several provinces shall enter into their relations on the 1st July, with' debts'as follows : Canada, $65,000,000.; Nova Scotia. $8,000,000 ; and New Brunswick,.$7,000,000.

There is still another, source when ce the" p rop He to ry. of, th e 'tin der tak i n g would derive a material amount of profit; we allude to the vast immigration to this country iandthePaci^c cdastgenerally,thatmust adopt this route ih preference to any other, particularly the class of immigrants that will form a permanent source of wealth to this country, namely, the men with wives and families. This class has. unfortunately for this colony, been precluded hitherto from reaching this quarter, by the excessive cost of passage by way of the Isthmus, and the terrors of a long sea voyage round Cape Horn. There can be no doubt that California owes much of its rapid increase of population and permanent settlement, to the facilities (small artbey were) afforded for the removal of families from the Eastern States, by the overland road across the plains. ��� Wc are now, however, on the point of outflanking our neighbors by constructing a road that, taken from the sea Savanne river, $1,000; superintendencies and contingencies, $4,000. The road and navigation thus opened up will terminate within 70 miles of Rainy Lake; whence the. navigation is uninterrupted, except by,a short portage at Francis, to the Lake of the AVoods,'about 90 miles from Fort Garry.'f ��� And the following, which we clip from the Colonist & Chronicle of the 19th ult. :��������� ���.

There is on this creek soihe six companies at work, most of whom are meeting with success in their prospecting operations. Tho Good Will co., immediately below the Flume co.'s claim, took out for three days' work of two men last week 10 ounces. On yielded di oz. of dust from 4,000 lbs. of rock, and the third netted 9 oz. from 8,000 lbs. of the same description of rock.\ .This disparity in the yield, it is said, arose in a great degree from the newness of the apparatus, .but it is Mr. Christie's opinion, from observations tnnde by him, thai the rock taken indiscriminately from the ..ledge, and worked by the arrastra process, Will average $10 a ton, and] if culled, an average. of $25 might be obtained. The great-trouble appears to be,tp find a solid; ledge, btii this desideratum, it is believed, from the present inclination of the reef, will be obtained, When:. the shaft/has been sunk fifty feet deeper. It hai been noticed that the gold becomes, more silvery in appearance, the deeper the rock is obtained. Mr. Christie estimates the number;' df, White men on Hixon creek at 20, and the Chinese at 200. There are two stores there,; one kept by.a Chinaman and the other by Mr. pollock? and a boarding, house.' /Morrison!& co,���������' are taking out from $8 to $9 a day to the hand ; several other companies are making,.from $3 ���������to $4 a day. ,Fred.

Christie, foreman of the Washburn Quartz CO., who left Hixon creek on Tuesday last, informs us that work on the ledge had been suspended On the 5th ult., but that the arrastras were kept going at intervals since that time, and over ten tons of the rock,taken out of the drifts at a depth of sixty-two feet, had been crushed. The first crushing gave a returrt of, $14 from about 6,000 103. of what was Considered jidor rock. Tbe second 'A "/���������������������������': Thursday,;5thSopt.^1865. ������������������-.
