They at once communicated with Sir John, who made an appointment to meet the delegation at 1.30 p. m. on the following day. The delegates attended punctually at the time and place, and waited for a considerable time, but. Sir John did not put; in an appearance. They then came to the conclusion that the time was not. well Chosen for interviewing and that. Sir John was not anxious to see them. No- thing daunted, however, they followed Sir John from place to place during the whole afternoon, and when they came up with him at dark they were inform- ed that he would give them an audience on Thursday at 11 a. In. As many of the delegates could not. wait longer, it was then agreed to put their views on paper and have them presented to Sir John in that shape. In the document. that. was drawn up they recited the ap- pointment and supposed that. the press of business had prevented him keeping.r it, which they much regretted ; that they did not wish to leave the city with- out. making known to him the object of their visit; that the action the Govern- ment had taken in surveying the canal route had strongly impressed the people of the counties more immediately inter- ested with the sincerity of their inten- tion to build it ; that Sir John's party politics were a secondary consideration to the building of the canal; that. if there were any trifling by the Govern- ment with the constituencies more par- ticularly concrrned, and if the matter should not be vigorously pushed during the next session of Parliament, thedele- gates gave it as their confirmed opinion that no member representing the party politics of Sir John could be returned M i P l | for any of the counties lying along the [ route. ' placed in the °°u°°'°‘l' 0m“ and hands of the lion. D. L. )lnepherson, Speaker of the Senate, whose guest Sir John was, and who undertook to person- ally present it. The document was of such ncliaracter as to suggest an answer. m Gniteau's Trial.

Verily the Americans are a queer people, and their queerness was never more strikingly illustrated than it is now being in the ludicrous trial of the ' murderer of him whom the whole na- tion mourns. A Aboutâ€"a'Bridge. The county of Victoria is construct» ing a new bridge over Burnt River in the village of Kinmount, and asks the county of Peterborcugh to contribute a art of the cost; which the latter dc- clincs to do, on the ground that the bridge is not. on the boundary between the two counties, and that the Burnt River does not. touch the county of Pe- terhorough at any point. The bridge stands on the. line between the 13th and 14th concessions of Somerville, and at a distance of a little over seven chains west of the western boundary of Gal way, in the county of Peterborough. About. an eighth of a mile south of the bridge the Bobcaygcon road, which is i the boundnrv between the two counties, verges from. the straight line into the township of Somcrville, and does not. a- gain strike it until some distance north of the northern boundary of Sornerville. This is occasiOned by the roughness of the line between Somerville and Gnlway across the lâ€"lth concession of Somerville, it. being a series of rocky hills and gul- leis, and at one point there is a perpen- dicular rock thirteen feet high intersect ing the boundary nearly at right. angles. Near the northern boundary a bay of the river extends some fifty or sixty rods into Galway; the boundary crosses this buy at its junction with the river, and there. is a marsh around the bay which, taken with the bay itself, woull require a bridge fifty rods long, while the intersection of this line with the northern boundary of the two counties is in the river; in fact, to make a road on the boundary between the counties at this point is practically an impossi- bility. The present road was built. ma- ny years ago by the Government, and is not only good but nearly level. The greatest perpendicular distance between the boundary and the road is only about a quarter of a mile. The dispute with reference to the bridge is to be settled by the courts.

John Fountain, who lives near Cameron, was in the Gazette office last Monday; and seeing his right foot in a. slipper we; asked him the cause, and he furnished 1 us with the material for this item. It l appears that a cow kicked him, and he undertook to kick back, but went to the front end of the animal, which proved to be a mistake; for the cow lowered her head to ward ofi' the in-l tended salute, and the kick was dcposâ€" j itcd on the point of her horn, whioha tore Mr. Fountain's sock and bored a rather deep hole in his foot just below his instep, though the boot itself was not penetrated, which can only be ac- s counted for by the elasticity of the! leather. j Mons Anon C.t1'TLY..â€"On Saturn. day last Mr. Wm. lane, of lt'cnelonp; sold two grade steers and a grade cow to Mr. S.

Having a yoke of three-year- old steres which he intends to fatten for Easter beef, he brought them all the way to the Falls on Tuesday to have them weighed, which was a sensible thing to do; and as he will no doubt lump aclose account of the food they consume until he parts with them. he will know exactly what profit he has made, which is far more satisfactory than guessing at. it. The present weight of the two steers is 2.530 113%., and they will have a rare lot of beef on their bones by the time they are turned over to the butcher. A Tamarâ€"Baring occasion to call at the residence of Mr. James Dickson a few days ago, we there saw a remark- able trophyâ€"though not. exnctly of the chaseâ€"which M r. Dickson picked up in the woods while on his recent survey of the township of Hunter in the Nipis- sing District. It is the horn ofa moose, the first we ever saw, and beats all our preconceived notions of the kind of weapons with which the heads of the monarchs of Canadian woods are adorn- ed. , The stem is not. more than about three inches long and an inch and a halfin diameter. but at the. top of it. the..horn spreads out into a smooth sheet over two feet long and a foot wide. slightly curved at one end, and armed at the edges with numerous prongs, from two to four inches in length. What the horn weighs we do not know, but. we fiuicy that the pair must. have been a burden which the owner, notwith- standing the strength of his neck, must have been glad to get rid of when the time for shedding them arrived. SCHOOL MEETIxos.â€"-We have been asked a good many times lately why we don't. publish the proceedings at. the school trustee meetings; to which we always reply that we never know when such meetings are held, or to be held. as they now take place at all sorts of irregular intervals. We know, howev- er, thut there was One not very lone ago, as there is an advertisement. in the Post, dated November 15th, for two teachers for the Fenelon Falls school. The said advertisements ought to have been inserted in the Gazette, if only for the purpose of helping it along; but our trustees are consumed with such a burn- ing desire to have the utmost. value for every dollar of public money that pass- es through their hands, that. the local paper might perish for want of support before they would give it an advertise- ment; except under the pressure of the sternest necessity. If there are any young women in this vicinity who are ambitions to become teachers in our public school, let them subscribe for the Post, or they will not know when a vacancy is about to occur. But to re- turu to the proceedings. If any mem- ber of the Board will tell us when a meeting is about to be held, we will make a note of the date, obtain the minutes and publish them, as we used to do; otherwise the public will vainly yearn to know the results of the school trustees‘ erratic deliberations. A Valuable Farm. The largest sale of real estate made in the city of Buffalo in many years has just. been consummated. The property in question is the Tifft farm, and the purchaser is the Lehigh Valley Rail- road Company. For some time the ofv ficials of the Company have had this property in view, and say that it was just what. they wanted for their largely increasing business. The Tiff: farm contains 400 acres. and the amount to be paid is $300,000, or 8750 per acre. It lies betwoen the. tracks of the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad and Lake Erie, and south of the Buffalo River. It will be used exclusively for coal and railroad purposes, affording probably the most extensive terminal lake and river facilities in Buffalo. A Strange Scene. An extraordinary scene occurred in Russel-street, Strand, London, the tho- roughfare at tho Drury Lane theatre, where no fewer than a thousand women congregath before the stage door in response to an advertisement which had been published by the management to the effect that one hundred young in- dies, “ who must be young, well-made, and pretty," were wanted for the forth- .coming pantomime. Long before the hour appointed the streets were crowd- ed with females of all ages, and in con- sequence of the block in the thorough- fare a posse of police were specially hold off from Bow-st. to keep them in order. The stage door was literally“ besieged, and after about 150 of the applicants had been admitted the door was closed. _.<>o The Dangers of Coal Gas. On a recent Sunday the preacher in the North Congregational Church in Lynn, Massachusetts, surprised his com gregation by leaning helplessly on the pulpit just as he was bringing his scr- mon to a close. The choir and congre- gation arose, and the hymn was begun ; but two of the women singers fell to the floor. The sexton, who was in the conference room, started to go to their assismnce, but. was unable to support himself on his feet, and in his full be tipped over a settee. Many persons in the congregation who attempted to quit their pews found that. they could not walk, and others who were less helpless gathered around them. Somebody came in from the open air, and found that the church was filled with Coal gas from the furnace. it had mingled with the atmosphere so gradually that those in the congregation were not aware of its presence. and were alarmed by its unac- countable eil'ect upon them. The same thing happened the other day church in England, when the church- yard presented the extraordinary spee- taclc of some fifty persons laid in a state of insensibility on the graves. ._ _~â€"¢* Dir.

END OF THE ORANGE TRIAL AT MONTRE- ALâ€"TBE BODY DECLARBD TO BE ILLEGAL. MOSTREAL, Nov. 18.-â€"~This morning the full beach of Queen's Beuohjudgcs, sitting in the appeal cases, delivered judgment in the case of David Grant against Mayor Bcandry. it will be re membcred that the latter in 1878, July 12, arrested David Grant, county Inas- ter of the Orangemcn, along with sever- al others who made a show of attempt- ing to hold a procession on July 12. Grant. sued for false arrest, and the judge, after the case had gone to court and been delayed from time to time, dismissed the case upon the technicality that the 30 days' notice of the prosecu- tion as required by law had not been given to Mayor Beaudry. This morn- ing the court sustained this view of the case that. had been appealed to them, but. they went into the merits of the case, giving their decision that. there was no doubt at all that the society was an illegal one under the law of the country. Chief Justice Doriou and Judges Monk, Cross, Ramsay and Baby were unanimous in this decision. FRENCH CANADIANS “'IIO HAVE FAITH 1N THE TORY NOSTRUM. l The N. P. Exodus.

A TRAGEDY IN Tim on. REGIONS OF YORK N. Y., the scene of the latest oil excite- STATE. P ment, was to day shaken up by a cold- blooded murder. Jack McCarty, n no- torious rough. formerly stabbed and killed Patrick )Iarkey, nu inoffensive driller. The row started early this morning in Armstrong's billi» ard room, on Main street. The two men, who were apparently good friends, tried their skill in feats of strength, and an impromptu wrestling match fol lowed, in which McCarty was floored. lie drew a knife and threatened to stab Markey. but. friends prevented. Mc- Carty then walked to the ltichburg House, took a drink, and coming out was overheard to say, “ Now I will go and kill him.” With that. he walked I of this city, down the street, and meetng his victim in front of a clothing store, he drew a long bladed knife, and jumping forward said, “Prepare to die, you ” ' .‘larkey was taken by surprise and en- ‘ dcuvorcd to fight. off the blows by throw. ing up his legs, which were cut and jflltlSllCd above the knees. The loss of I blood weakened him, and the murderer l | l t raised his hand high in the air and sent. the long blade through )larkey's heart. The victim fell over on his face and died almost instantly. The mur- derer coolly closed the knife, placed it in his pocket, and walked down street passing through the. Crowd, which seem- etl terror-stricken. Stopping: on the side- walk and seeing that his right hand was bloody and bleeding from a out, he I shook that member, throwing the blood i on the sidewalk. 110 then entered the lliehbur; lIousc, washed his hands, and walked toward the depot, when he was arrested by two men and taken to a magistrate“; office. The population as the news spread became wild with excitement. Men and women rushed into the street crying “ Ilang him, shoot the blendy wretch," and one excited fc. lmale offered to furnish the rope for hanging. The magistratc's office was surrounded all the altcrtmon. La-t g week McCarty broke a man's nose with ’an iron knuckle, and a year ago he nearly pounded a drunken Indian to death. While in the Court. room he tried to draw his knife to stab his cap- tors, but was quickly disarmcd. â€"._._-_.-..... France is gradually exporting more and Importing less of articles of food.

Another ' ~_Iâ€" itsau’s Lifer U n' the adjourniiient of the Court at. \ ashinetou. on Saturday. the ,19th, the van Started for the cool, havinga liceman as a guard on the edit ‘with the driver. Before reaching tifo Capis tol, he noticed a young man on horse- back riding behind the van. Near the corner of East Capitol and First streets the horseman rode directly to tho rear of the van and hastily peered‘nhro‘ugh the grating. Guiteau was alone, sciat- ed on the right. hand side. After satis- fying himself of the location of tho pris. oner, the horseman suddenlywhoeled to the right of the ran and lined directly through it. He then dashed to tho' front of the van and pointed the pistol at. the driver. with the evident intention of intimidating him or stopping tho‘vnn. The driver was somewhat excited, and said to a reporter perhaps the man in- tended to stop the van by shooting and of the horses. Seeing the armed police. man by the side of the driver the man exclaimed, “ I've shot tho â€"â€"- â€"- ' ," and putting spam to his horse dashed down East. Capitol street in the direc- tion of the Congressional Cemetery. The policeman fired a shot at the last disappearing horseman and the driver whipped his horses into a gallop, keep- ing him in sight several blocks. The would-be avenger was, however, mount- ed ou u blooded horse, and readily es- caped into the country. He was de- seribcd as a smooth faced man, about 25 years of age, and a dashing horse- man. He had on a dark brown suit of l The van then proceeded to‘ I the gaol and Guiteau was taken out in a state. of great excitement. He cx- I claimed, “ I have been shot. Notify Major Brock at once. Tell him to or- rest the scouudrel and have him dealt clothes. with us he deserves." On examination it was found that. the ball had just grazed Guiteau's left. wrist, inflicting n more scratch. The ball struck the lop- positc side of the van and fell upon the floor. The announcement of the attempt on Guitenu's life created intense excite- ment upon the streets, and all sorts of rumours were circulated. The avenget’ was seen about the Court House this afternoon, and attempted to gain admis- sion, but. failed. lie was also seen to miunt his horse near the Court. llouso‘ soon after the van left and ride leisuro~ ly after it. It was rumoured that. he hailed from Illinois, but. there seems to' be no foundation for the report. It. was whispered in the crowd without the Court llousc,just previous to the ad» journment, that. today would be tho‘ last day of the trial. The remark was also heard that if one wanted to see Guiteau they had better do so today".- This would lead to the belief that more‘ than one person was aware that. the at? tempt would be made. .0 o»...._..~__ A Cool Criminal. A criminal was recently arraigned in In Berlin court ol‘justicc for murder and robbery. According to custom, the pro. siding judge, bsl'oro summing up the ev-~ idence for the jury's coiisidcrution, ask- ed the prisoner whether he had any" thing to say for himself. “Only this, your honour," replied the latter; “it was not a murder but. a suicide."
