The trial of Gnitcau for the murder of President Garfield will, it is expect- ed, terminate next week, a little over :1 month from its commencement. It has certainly been one of the most. singular judicial exhibitions cvcr wituezscd; but Judgc Cox gives the not unreasonable I explanation that. he allowed the prisoner l the extraordinary latitude of speech and action that he has enjoyed in order that the jury might be better able to form an opinion as to his mental condition; and he also stated. a few days ago. that l “a judge in a criminal court had no l right in law for restraining a prisoner lon trial for his life from making any , demonstrations he chose to make, except they amounted to actual violcuco to those around him." The defence closed on Tuesday last, and the attempt to es- tablish Guitcau’s insanity is thought to have failed, as only a few of the ex- , parts summoned on his bchalfwcrc call- I cd into the witnc~sbox, and even their I I midi-nee did not to“ much in his favor. That a conviction that. the prisoner is responsible for his :iclions, and conse- qncatly ought to be hanged, prcvall< i very widely throughout. the Country is l proved by a lcttor which has lately ap- , p":tt't:d in print over the signature of “ The President. of thc Garfield Avenu- l era." It demands the execution of Gui- i tcau, and says that if he is acquitted i an army of the Avengers trill march to l \\'ashiogton, in accordance with an oath 1 they have taken.and lynch not only the SEISS-tcélll bttt Jud-5c Cox and the jury also. I The ThiidTitné’sâ€"ttiombharm. i The meeting on Monday evening l last was, like the previous one, a regu- lar fizzle, and, with the proceedings ‘ conducted in the same. manm-r, it would .0ccnpy a month of Mood.in to give , public matters that. thorough discussion , which Mr. Urccno said was the object I ofhix~ Iir.~t meeting. but which it really ' appears to us he is anxious to prevent. ,Thc attendance on Monday evening was large and respectable, but about. an hour and a hall of precious time was 2 consumed in loitering n‘rouml the stove and squabbling over the appointment of a chairman; and in the end Mr. John Moffat was elected to that. position, which he accepted with nmch reluct- lance, ns‘ he said he had never before presided at a public meeting. llowev = tr. he at last took the chair, which he tilled in a \‘cry creditable manner. and after a few rematkt called upon the first speaker to conto forward. Then :i- , rose another Squat-ble over, firstly. the 7 time which each speaker was to keep ' the. flunt‘flthl, ~ccondiy. as to who should ~pcak Ilt'ot. Mr. tirtene wi~hing to fol low Mr. llirko-n. and Mr. Dickson cx- pressing a determination not to spank until he had been piece-led by Mr. tirccae. And so the night wor: on. tile timc b-‘iog con~ttmvd chi fly in , "brill. di~juinted chat " and brivl ‘I‘tt'tll‘llt“ which were nipped in the bud matterâ€"whatever it wasâ€"could be ex- tracted by the attentive ratvpay‘crs. To , take intelligib’e notes of the crossâ€"fire of words that was manually indulged in would have been rt difficult achievement for an :ntzbillvxtrwtla rep-rtcr with two lead pencils. and we gave it up it) dcs~ pair after we had got twelve pages of a Clocks, .A.11 Kinds,l 30 day, 3 day and 33 hour, Alarm strike,&c, l meeting on his own nccnunt, and on - I Ammo-xx MATCHES, I l l one," and the chairman put. the moâ€"l on and declared it carried. A: the audience was in the act of lexving at the moment, and no show at hands in the negative was cdled tor. Mr. Greene bjzcted to the adjournment, and said he would take no part in any further meeting beyond li:teniug to what wasl said and replying if he thought fit; whereupon Mr. Dickson stepped to the trout and said that. he would call a ti ti next Monday evening would enter fully into all public matters of interest to the ratepayers. The two meetings already held hardly amounted to the proverbial "' row of pins ; " but “ the third timc'iz the charm," and we sincerely hope that Mr. Dickson will be allowed to carry verso“? san‘ll’lgwmdles “'"m‘dl-“lout his intention and give all the ins ; More for repair-‘. can have the amount oil and outs of the various transactions that have terminated so disastrously for the pockets of the people. Gaoderhzim. ((‘orrnpondence of the Gazette.) The year is fast closing in, and will soon end. I have on sundry occasions during the past intimated to you that important matters for this immediate district would likely happen when the plans of the spirited gentlemen who have them in hand had somewhat fur- ther matured. I am fully of opinion th.tt another year, whoever secs it in our township, cannot get so near its close as this is now witlzout some of my long spoken of hopes being at least par- tially realized. Slowly but. surely the iudcfhtigable gentlemen above alluded to are movin: forward, and I trust that by the time I address another few lines to you I shall be in possession of tangi- ble facts to back up my present asser- tions. Our various lumbering gangs are making good progress in this town- ship, as the Weather has been very fa- vourable. We hear of one firm who has lately changed one of its principal officers. and sure it. is that very few of the settlers hate any occasion to regret his removal, for Some will remember him to their sorrow. Our annual elections are fast approaching, and as far “3 I can learn there is a determination mnongst my fellow ratepayers to make a change next year. I an) almost certain of im- portant business Coming before our count all at an early date. and it is to be hop- cd that the sagcst of our men will form our council; but here, as in So many other places, the most fitting refuse to take office in such unthankfnl times. Labour in our township has been plcn- tlI'ul_this sea~on so far as the lumber trade is concerned, and many settlers have had good opportunities of meeting the tax Collector with n bolder front than usual at this time of year. The genial countenance of Mr. Alexander MeAr- thur, who is getting out much lumber he has bought here, is often \vclconiely seen among us. Bobcaygeon. (Correspondence of the Gazelle.) Owing to the state of the roads~thcrc is but little trallic going on. It is a pity that so little effort is made for their improvement. If good roads are a surc- evidence of an advanced state of civili- zation, what would those around here indicate? Let our councillors answer. Over two weeks ago a Mr. Harry Simpson, a well known resident in this locality, went. a-tnissing without leaving any trace of where he had gone. When last. seen he was walking through the village, and as he had said he was going off to llarvcy, a few miles distant, to boss :1 shanty for Mr. Elliott, no notice was taken of his ab<cnce uatil inquiries from thch as to where ho had gone led to the belief that smoothing was wrong. All search has as yet failed to show what becalncof him. but the impression gains ground that he perished in the lake. The new hotel now building in Bob caygcon for Mr. Goulais will certainly prove a great attraction to visitors, both by its size and outward appearance. The architect. Mr. Belchcr, has done. his part wellâ€"in fact 50 admirably that visitors will be sure to inquire as to who furnished the design. Of course. the site i»: a first class one; fcw could be better for giving the architect a chance to dis- play hi." ability. It is too soon yet to speak of the interior arrangements of the hotel, but ifthey are. at. all in keep- ing with the exterior it may well be called a first class house. The rcsidcnh are fclicitating themselves on the change from the unsightly building which gave such an unliivourablc impression of their village. A Clergyman on Governments.

Last. year he had the best stock ever brought. into .Fenelou Fnls, and, owing to their excellence and chenpncss, they sold so rapidly that. this year he has bought more than double the quantity, and we do not doubt.- that he will be able to dispose ofall of them. ALMOST a Finaâ€"As Mr. James Ink- stir was passing Mr. F. Sundford's car- riage factory (in which he is employed) about 11 o'clock last Saturday night, he noticed a light shining through the windows of the blucksmith’s shop, and upon entering found that. one of the walls was burning close to n forge, nspark from woirh probably caused the fire. Mr. Inkstcr was only just in time to save the premises from destruction. for he was hard at. work for nearly~two hours before the danger was over. as the fire was burning inside the sheeting of the wall. TlanGlITFUL GENEROSITY.â€"A few days ago the llcv. W. Logan received through the post-office a note contain- ing five dollars from a member of St. Peter's church. Vet-alum, which he was under no legal obligation to pay. The note stated that it was only “ poverty " that had prevented the writer doing something of the same kind sooner. The note further stated that the money was in consideration of the past, and had no reference to the present year. This looks like a return of prosperity and an exhibition of gratitude for the same. The act is so unusual that it. deserves to be put on record. A SKATING limitâ€"3dr. John Finn is making preparations to establish a skating rink at the rear of his lot on Bond street, where there is a gully about 150 feet long by 75 feet. wide, which al- ways contains a considerable quantity of water throughout the winter months, and enough to flood the rink occasion- ally cun be obtained from a deep well near the llOllSc. Mr. Finn is confident that his enterprise will be crowned with success. as he already has a large num bcrofsubSCribcrs, and the rink being cen- trally situated, sheltered from winds. and safe forjuvcnilcs, it is probable that it will be pretty \chI patronized. A BAD FALLâ€"Last Saturday even- ing Mr. David Lamb, of Verulam. slipped while coming out of the door of the Mansion House. in this village, and fell with such force on his right hand. which be stretched out to try and saw himself, that one of the bones of the Iiirearm was broken about two inches above the wrist. He immediately walk~ ed to Dr. Wilson's office, where the fracture was reduced and bandages up- plicd. As the fact. that the accident happened at the door of a tavern may cause those who do not know Mr. L-unb to suspect that it was caused by liquor, we may mention that he istt strict tem- perance man and went into the Mansion House on business.

DETROIT, Dec. 5.â€" Henry “'hite: sentenced to thirty-nine years' impris- onment for robbing a stage in New Mexico, has been brought. here by Uni» ted States Marshal Wilcox. 0a a train near Pokztgon. White picked the lock of his handcuffs with a tooth-pick and l attacked Wilcox with the handcuffs. A I l I fierce struggle ensued, and WIICox was knocked down. Seventeen men in the car left. the officer to struggle alone. White seized Wilcox’s revolver and tried to shoot. him. Mrs. Smithson, wife of a Denver engineer, the only wo- man in the car, sprang upon the seat behind him and caught the convict's arm. The men in the car then came to the officer's assistance. and White was again secured. Mrs. Smithson declined it reward. but Marshal Wilcox will send her $500. White is a notorious stage robber. . Affairs in Ireland. DELAY IN THE COURT. DUBLIN, Dec. 5.-â€"â€"â€"It is believed that the present crisis is the most important of the whole load movement. for the people thus far have successfully resist- cd all the strength of coercion. It is a startling fact that two-thirds of the rents are. not being paid, and tenants have no intention of paying them with- out heavy reductions, which the land- lords refuse. The Land Courts are so slow that. the Act is as yet. no remedy whutcvcr forthc troubles. The Gov- ernment. did not expect. this delay. be- lieving that after a few decisions the landlords and tenants would settle mat- ters between themselves. The Country is experiencing a reign of terror. In the eastern counties the x‘SSIZt’S have begun, and the judge spoke of the great increase of crime. He said that threat- ening lctters of intimidation were every- where on the increase, and the crime of arsnn much more frequent. The opin- ion that I’aruell's arrc~t was a mistake is being every day vindicated. w..-- A Propeller Missing. TIIE VESSEL SEVERAL DAYS OVERDUE. OWEN Sonxo, Dec. 2.â€"'l‘he propel- ler Jone .lll'llrr that left here on the morning of the 23rd Now, has not b on heard from. As she it several days overdue fears are entertained for her safety. The .lli'llcr proceeded to Ma-a- ford frotn here, where she completed her cargo. which eourix‘tcd of supplies and general merchandise for Lion's Ilcztd, Michael's and Providence Bays. week’s meeting we (unitth the name of A number of empty fish barrels and Mr. Joseph McArthur from the list of other portions ofa vessel's cargo, sup- pcrsons “ suggested " as candidates for the rccvcship of this village. The 0- mission, which we regret, will not in the least affect Mr. McArthur's chances of election. as the naming ofcandidates at. such a meeting was informal and premature, and was only done as a sort of compromise with Mr. Greene, who apparently wished to transact not only the business of the last Monday in De- ccmbcr but that of the first. Monday in January also. The contest for the recveship is, as far as we can learn, to be between Mr. Dickson and Mr. Mc Arthur. Dunn. on DEVILâ€"WHICH ?â€"Thcrc is said to be a white deer, or what looks like one, on Mr. Schell‘s form in Som- i-rvillc; butas a couple of pounds of bullets have been fired at, and some of them Ilu-nugh, it at short range without producing any effect upon the creature beyond inducing it to u ink and derisivc- ly wag its tail, some are inclined to fan- cy that it. is a fiend that has assumed the similitudc of a dear in order to pro- voke the local sports into the use of pro- fanc language. The strange story was told to us so late in the “'0th that we are forced to give it shorn of half its wonders; but we were assured most. pos- itivcly that it was true. and were too polite to my. or even insinuate, that :I Kilou‘ntld assurances would not. induce us to believe it. Accmnx‘r To A Dmr Minnâ€"A young man named Stephcmon. who is a deaf mute and has bacn working in Duuhar's shanty, ab all. seven miles from Kinmount. for the purpose of earn- ing enough money to take him to the Deaf and Dumb A~ylnm at Believillc. inflicted a very SCI'IUUs' wound on his right foot with an axe. about 7 o‘clock on the morning of the 2nd lost. He was drawn on ajumpcr to Kinmonnt. of Fenelon Falls. who went to Kin- monut. by the evening train. which was delayed so long on the road from some ctusc that. he did not reach his destiua tion until 7:30. by which time the pa-' ticnt was so wcakofrnin low of blood: that the doctor almost feared he would not recover. The wound was a terrible one, the second. third and fourth toes being so badly mangled that it was necessary to amputatc them, and some of the long bonev of the foot m shatter- ed that they had to be cut out. The? povcd to be off the Miller, have come ashore at llay Island. The tug Tommy ll’rl'glit went out yesterday in search. but returned owing to the heavy gale. The June Miller is a small propeller of I42 tons, classed A 25. owned and com- manded by Captain Andrew l’ort. OWEN Sousa. Dec. 5.-â€"-'l‘hc sole topic of conversation to-day is the fate of the steamer Jam: Miller and the con- sequent sacrilice ofhuman life. Even mariners are not inclined to express any very decided opinions as to the proba- ble cause of the disaster. The general , public are prolhnn‘dly appalch at the large number of disasters on our north- crn lakes this season. It is to be hoped that some steps will be. taken to place shipping on a Sounder bail; and ensure. greater safety for those engaged in such I pursuits, and to prevent the I'rcqucntl recurrenc: of'snch horrible catastrophe.“ as tlti:l fall has witnessed.
