Detroit despatch says: The Grand Trunk Company’s new transfer boat. the Lansdowne. is nearing completion. In the course of three or four weeks it is hoped she will be ready to go into commission. Her general outline resembles that of the Great Western. Her upper works are modelled after that craft. But the design of the hull of the Lansdowne is different, being of three-fourths inch iron plates and designed expressly for keeping a passage clear in the ice. Her sheer is extreme. and as she is a double-ender equal speed can be made backward or forward. Her machinery and boilers are those used in the old Michi- gen. The mechinery wes thoroughly over- heuled and tested before being pleoed in the Lensdowno. The two engines heve e combined strength of 900-horse power. which it is estimeted will drive the vessel through the heevieet ice forming in the river.

Another intimation Was given to the Canadian Pacific Railway agent that unless he stopped his opposition to the whiskey traflic he would be shot. No confidence could be placed in any of the constables on the spot. and a large majority of the inhabitants. teamsters and others were in sympathy with these " Molly Maguiree." as they call themselves. and even those who were not in sympathy with them were airaid to come forward and give evidence. As the authorities on the spot were unarmed it was deemed advisable that the Local Government should be appealed to. The facts were duly brought to the notice of the Local Gov- ernment. and orders have been issued which will securea vindication of the law. Mr. J. M. Hamilton, County Crown Attorney. Sault Ste.

Conjectures as to the Cause at the Blow- upsâ€"Thc Mysterious strangers-The Precautions. A Quebec despatch says: There are no new developments respecting the Parlia- ment House explosions. The police are still following up their favorite theory that the four suspicious characters repoer by the Levis boarding-house keeper. who is a Mrs. Honora Nolan. residing opposite the Quebec Central Railway station. were the true authors of the events on Saturday. They have also obtained their descriptions. the first being a tall. fair man. with mous- tache and imperial, dressed in black and aged about 36; the second. a stout. middle- size man, age about 40, with a black mous- tache and slightly crooked nose, and the third also of middle-size. about 28 or 30 years old. and fair. These three put up at Nolan's on the evening of the Bad. and not the 5th. as stated yesterday. They had only a single carpet bag with them then. and were so short of body linen that when they wanted to change their shirts they had to wait until those on them were taken oi! and washed. They nevertheless appeared to have plenty of American money. They were joined on Wednesday evenin last by a fourth in the personpf a _ :looking and Winchester rifles were directed into the building. Some of the shots passed through the windows and lodged in the legs at the back at the house occupied by the magistrate. Immediately afterwards an attack was made upon the lock-up. the front aoor was forced open and three cell doors wrenched off. A prisoner confined for drunkenness was in one of the cells at the time. He cried out, asking to he released. that the people were going to shoot him. At about the same time three newly appointed constables who were on the alert. and who were obnoxious to the whiskey gang were shot at and two of them wounded. one in the hand seriously and the other in the eye. Notices were found plaoed in positions where they would be certain to he taken hold of. stating that the three newly appointed constables would be shot unless they cleared out by the next steamer leaving lor_the East. _ 0n the night 0! the 9th October eevcrel revolver ehote were fired etter derh in the neighborhood of the quertere occupied by the Onterio Megietrete.

This was to me even more painful. ior when, after seeing the women who were crowded together in the gallery. on benches. and in fixed chairs. many of whom were restrained by various mechanical appliances. we went into the narrow passage between the cells and the outer wall. the irantic yells of the patients and the hanging against the doors constituted a veritable pandsmonium. The eflect was heightened when the guichets in the doors were unbuttoned, and the beads of the inmates were protruded in a row.like so many beasts. as far asthey could reach. Into this human menagerie, what ray of hope can ever enter ? In one o! the wards of the asylum I observed on the walls a card, on which were inscribed words to the eflect that in Divine Providence alone were men to take their hopes. The words seemedto me like cruel iron . Iahould. indeed, regard the Angel of sath as the most mercilul visltant these wretched beings could possibly welcome. The bolts and locks were removed in a few instances, and some of the women were seen to be confined by leathern mufle. solitary con- finement not being snflicien}. Qnao! t_he but ugnménu it; [not of rennin. by camisole or mufl In am the patent on: In the fourth tier were placed the idiots and imbecilssâ€"a melancholy sight neces- sarily. even when cared for and trained in the best possible manner. but especially so when there is no attempt made. so far as I could learn. to raise them to a higher level or educate them. It is impossible to con. vey an adequate idea of the condition of the patients confined in the gallery. in the roof. and in the basement of this asylum. They constitute the refractory classâ€"acute and chronic maniacs. They and the accom- modation which has so long been provided for them must be seen to be fully realized. I saw in the highest story. that in the roof. an ill-lighted corridor, in which 60 to 70 refractory men were crowed together; some were walking about. but most were sitting on benches against the wall or in chairs fixed to the floor. the occupants being secured to these restraint chairs by straps. Of those seated on the benches or pacing the gallery. a considerable number were restrained by handcuffs attached to a belt. some of the ends being the ordinary iron ones used for prisoners. the others being leather. Restraint. I should say in passing, was not confined to the so-called refractory wards; for instance. in a lower. and quieter ward. a man was tightly secured by astrait-waistcoat. Dr. Howard had him released. and he did not evince any indications of violence. It was said he would tear his clothes. a serious matter in an asylum conducted on the contract system. The walls and floor of the corridor were absolutely bare. But if the condition of the corridor and the patients presented a '3 melancholy sight. what can be said of the adjoining cells in which they sleep and are secluded by day 7 They are situated between the corridor and a narrow passage lighted by windows from the roof. Over each door is an opening the same length as the top of the door, and three to four inches in height. which can be closed or not. as the attendant wishes. This aperture is. when open. the only means of lighting the cell. The door is secured by a bolt above and below, and by a padlock in the middle. In the door itself is a wicket. or wicket. secured. when closed. by a button. When opened. a patient is just able to protrude the head. There is. as I have intimated. no window in the room. and when the aperture over the door is closed it is absolutely dark. For ventilation. there is an opening in the wall opposite the door. which communi- cates above with the cupola : but what- ever communication may be with the outer air. the ventilation must be very imperfect. Indeed. I understand that the ventilation only comes into opera- tion when the heating apparatus is in action. What the condition of these cells must be in hot weather. and after being occupied all night. and. in some instances, day and night. may be easily conceived. When the bolts of the door of the first cell which I saw opened were drawn back and the padlock removed. a man was seen crouching on a bed of straw rolled up in the corner of the room. a loose cloth at his feet. and he stark naked. rigorously restrained by handcuffs and belt. 0:: being spoken to. he rose 11 . dazzled with the light. and looking pa e and thin. The reason assigned tor his seclusion and his manacles was the usual one. namely. “ he would tear his clothes if free." The door being closed upon this unfortunate man. .. s heard sounds proceeding from neighboring cells. and saw some of their occupants. One who was deaf and dumb. as well as insane. and who is designated 1’ homme inseam. was similarly manacled. In his cell there was not anything whatever for him to lie or sit upon but the bare floor. He was clothed. Some of the cells in this gallery were sup- plied with bedsteads. there being just room to stand between the wall and the bed. When there is no bedstead. a loose palliasse is laid on the floor.

Mr. Herouet's testimony showed that the elopement hed been; settled end Dupont‘s ticket bought heiore he left the house. Justice Miner held Dopont guilty otleroeoy sod sentenced him to three months in the house of correction. Mr. Baronet then declsred his willingness to forgive Mrs. Heronet end the justice susâ€" pended sentence in her case. The hnshend sud wife left the eourt together. A last Sunday night's Detroit deepatoh says: Ernest anont and Mrs. Heronet, the Montreal elopers, yesterday came up in court to answer the charge of simple larceny of Florent Heronet's watch. bed clothes. fur cap and overcoat. Dupont stated that he was not aware Mrs. Baronet had the things in her trunk when they left. and when ehe showed them to him he thought her hnehand had given them to her. He also stated that he had left the honee beiore he bed known be we: going off with Mrs. Baronet. The women ind met him The oflicere were unable to stey the mob, who refused to listen to arguments. From 9 to 10 the Court-House square presented 3 scene that beggered description. The mob increased in numbers until the entire specs on three sides of the jail was a dense mess of humanity. demanding that the murderer be hung. The torches of the men tiered above the see of heads, and the white plumes moved resolutely about the square. The best citizens were resentsnd wntched the peintul scene with lsnched feces. but with no expression of sympathy. When everythio was prepared the murderer was ask to make a statement. He declined to state anything, except that he was the man who shot Burton. At this juncture the cry went round. “ Pull him 1" “ Hang him i" “ Don't let him live a minute longer I" The mob seized the rope and made a strong pull, but the rnfliau freed his hands. and the rope broke before he was raised from ground. In five m1n~ utes a new rope was thrown over the heads 0! the crowd and fell within a few feet of the executioner. This was adjusted, his hands and arms were firmly tied, and in another moment he was hanging in the air with his face closely pressed against the limb of a tree and the terrible tragedy was over. The body of the doomed man was left hanging only a few minutes when it was taken down lifeless and left in charge of the sheriff. who will see the remains interred. Between 9 and 10 belle rang out an alarm which was made general, and this, added to the steady roll 0! voices from the direction of the Court House, made the night one of awful features. The body of Burton was removed home during the evening. One bullet passed through the head, two through the lungs and two into the abdomen. any one of which would have been fatal. A lsst(Thursdev night's Lscrosse (Win) despstch seys: . A. Burton. President of the Bleine-Logen Club. was shot deed this evening by e cherscter known es " Scotty " while the Republicen procession wee forming. The murderer wee arrested end hurried off to jeil. followed by e nun- dred men in uniform carrying torches end shouting. " Lynch him." The Chief of Police and e pone berrioeded the jeil doors end prevented violence. The murderer advanced from the crowd to within it few feet of his victim end tired the first bullet into his heck. Burton fell to the peve- ment, and “ Bootty ” emptied the revolver. firing six shots into Burton’s body end heed. He then threw the revolver at the victim and gave him e trick. All this was done in e moment, before my one could reelize whet happened. The motive of the murder is unknown. Burton wes meneging the cent- p‘sign in this section. A mob of Bleine- ogen toroh-beerers end citizens surrounded the jail and demendsd possession of " Sootty.” This wee refused. The mob then procured cold ohisele, forced o n the doors. put e rope eround his neo . end lynched him et 1045 p. m.
