Not a single sna- picion arises to mer the conditions of fair play. The causes of success to the Oxfords and of defeat to the Harvards lay all within themselves and in the systems of training and rowing which the crews respectively followed. Beyond this we may, we think, draw conclusions as to peculiarities of na- tional character exhibited iu the race. The American crew were nervously anxious and excited. The Oxfosds manifest 2d the Eng- lish. phlegm and coolness. The Harvard boat got oil with the greatest promptitude, as we should naturally expect an American to do in almost soy undertaking.

Ottawa, Aug. 27.-A shocking murder wa9. ccmmitted last night in the 4th concession of the township of Oagoode, on the town line of Gloucester, 12 miles south of this city. On proceeding to the spot I found the following to be the facts -, Thomas Shaw, a native of Scot- land,and farmer, who had been residing about eight years on his own farm, was lying in his gore in his bed room. where he had been shot litat night,between 8 and 9 o cloclr. It appears that deceased was sitting at a table reading an almanac, with his back towards a window, when a shot was red at him from behind, the bullet going through the back part of the head and out at the right temple. The bullet was large, and after passing through the old man s head it went through a board partition and across the kitchen into the wall, from which it_ was removed in 5 attened state. The magic 'of the gun had evidently been placed'ii'gningt the window within 10 feet malfg begd_ The bullet tore a [rightful hole through the head, scltlerillz pieces of the brain on the table, wall and floor. The old man seemed to have sprung up and fallen on his face. Suspicion pointed strongly to the sons of the old man, James and John, the older about 30 years ofage, the second about 22.

It would up` pear that in the Western Stetu it is of very meagre importnnce to speculators there which direction other markets take. They have been able to maintain high prices and to have almost supreme control of this market, latterly inuen- cing prices in Britain, and useisting them to keep them up It is astonishing how triing a report it takes sometimes to turn the market ; and these turns are often made good use of, that buoyancy is imparted, end the market becomes active to a dc-area which, Irithmn nnnnlnlinn .~._.

In these days of cheap cables, it is_ easy to secure what is wanted, provided the price is paid ; but England has lately had to pay so sel'om the price of the shipper here, that in place of ordering cargoes, it has been found cheaper to wait the arrival of stocks and take the chances of the market. It was certainly very discouraging to have to ex- port so largely last year on the more chance of securing a market at paying prices, but when the harvest in Britain has been an average one, we need not anticipate a lucrative business, un- less the crops of some other countries prove a decided fsilute. And in connection with this, the impression has been gaining strength that several ot the large producing countries, as well as England, will hardly approach an ava_rg5a.~ < It is certainly true of some of the/g,Lag1l`iia'med_ although it cannot yet hav fully ascertain. ed to what extent. s of the British press for some/wes have been unfavourable, the expectation being that much of the yield Wouldhot thresh out nearly so well as the crop of 1868. That the fears entertained are not without some assurance, is obvious. Great Britain has bees, and continues be, a large buyer in this market, and at prices which are above the range of those ruling at the close of the win- ter season.

France and the north of Europe ,will not have so large a quan- tity for export, and the United States, although it is not yet accurately known, will not ship more liberally than the past season, because it is manifest that unless California can realise more than they did last spring and fall, they will not ship at all, for the reason that it would pay farmers as well to let their wheat rot. Except-` ing what may be held at points in California, the stocks are small in all the leading ports in the United States, but California s productive power must, for many years to come, play an important part in establishing the price of wheat, so long as it does not, by excessive yields in other countries,touch so low a rate as to prevent the possibility of its being shipped at all. In a very few weeks, a more decided indication ofthe course of the market will appear, but even in the absence of that evidence, which most men would desire to have, to warrant operating on the probabilities of higher prices being realised, we think we are not without that which shows the chances in favour of the market becoming stronger at longer prices than those now cur- rent for wheat and our. Our own crop, it is generally believed, will be large, but there is still a considerable portion at it to be harvested yet, on account of the backward state of the weather. But while our own local prosperity depends much upon the result of our harvest, it has little or no part to play in establishing the World's price of bread.-JIontral Herald.

TERRI1i_LE CHARGE 015 PQISONING BY A FRENCH PRIEST. (From the Londrm Star, Aug. 13.) Just before the close of the session of the Imperial Parliament Mr Lefevre brought up a bill in the House of Commons, which is really a Code of Mercantile Mari_n,e Law. Its introduction enablql my Lefeyre go Illlke Evmot interesting statement. The ercantile Marine of Great Britain has in~ creased until it is equal to the collective marine of all other countries in the world- These ships, 7,500,000 tons of them, are manned by 197,000 sailors, of whom only 12 per cent are foreigners. The laws regu- lating their engagements, treatment, mode of paying their wages, the examinations of their officers, and numerous kindred ques- tions, have been consolidated, and with them the laws about harbour dues, pilot- age, lights, wreckers, measurement, registra- tion, and so on, till the Bill has become a complete code. ' 'A remarkable case will shortly come be- fore the French tribunals, in which the Abbe Dionis, the cure of the parish of Baux, in the nrrondlssement 01 Aries, in the south of France, is accused of having been an accomplice in the murder of the sucristan of his church, the actual murder- er being the wife of the victim. The acts d accmation, which forms so important a part of French legal proceedings, and which is, in fact, asummsry of the case for the prosecution, discloses the following facts : "I"l.......... ..L...... ,l..-AL :_ AL. __,I- ,. .- [lib . The man whose death is the subject of inquiry, named Tougay, a watchmaker, and seiton at the parish church, died sud- denly on the 10th February, after ashort illness. The wife, whose character is al- leged to have been far from blameless, had for some time had an illicit connection with an old man named Francis Grognard, but this connection she had apparently abandoned for some time, and the gossip of the_ neighbourhood attached some signi- cunee to her assidnous visits to the parish church in the Spring of 1866. The bus- band appears to have troubled himself very little about her conduct. When the wo- man, whose character was well known, en- tered the service of the cure, some of the parishioners remonstrated with the latter; but he replied that he had been the means of reclaiming the woman from evil cour- ses, and that Jesus Christ himself did not refuse to associate with such. The scan- dal. however, could not be suppressed, and is said to have gathered weight from the previous iile of the cure. The ecclesiasti- cal authorities at length decided on re- moving him to another parish, and he re- eeived an order on the 20th January to re- nn.- oI.:o|.,... l',....I._..:.L I1 4- u ruavvlvua nu. us tuc \.ulU.

The death of Tougay occurring on the 10th of February, exci ed suspicion in the minds of those who knew the relations between the widow and the priest. On the 16th March the body was exhumed, and evidence of poisoning by some preparation of copper, probably vi- triol, was distinctly traced. The woman at rs: e'nd(-zwourcd to throw the guilt on her former companion, Grognard, but the Police soon ascertained that she had pur- chased poison tor rats at a grocer s, and that after her husband's death she had ur- gently requested him not to mention this fact. After her arrest she was heard fre- quently tu mutter to herself, My God 1 If 1 tell, I shall ruin him." She then told a circumstantial tale, to the eect that she had been the mistress of the priest, and that he had urged her to a frequent obser- vance of all exterior acts of devotion, in order to avert suspicion. After he had been compelled by the remonstrances of his parishioners to dismiss her, the inter- course continued in secret, her visits to the priest s chambers being usually made through the `belfry after mass or evening prayer. When he was transferred to another parish, he endeavoured to persuade her to accompany him as servant, provided that she could obtain a written permission from her husband. As, however, this was not to be obtained, he proposed (according to her statement) that she should poison her husband, promisipg her full sbsolution. She at tst shrank from incurring the guilt of murder, but he assured her that nothing was easier; and on the very day when he received the nal order to remove from the parish she purchased at two sep- arate grocers shops a quantitv of nu- puma pathic ( Con-oB'ruI9.-The very agreeable character of this preparation has rendered it a general favourite.

It is supposed that she subsequently adminis- tered more poison to her victim. He died on the 10th of February. The priest seems to have been fully aware that suspicion would fall on him, and he endeavoured beforehand to direct attention to the old man Grognard. It was, indeed, mainly at his instigation that the body was exhum- ed.
