He was accompanied by his son. Sydney E. Smyth, a young man who adopted the pre- caution at bringing his breech loader with him. At Ballycroy the agent iound the tenants. but there wasn't a penny of rent among the lot. This was a circumstance highly calculated to rufile the temper oi the gentlest of land agents; but, Mr. Bmyth says, he here this disappointment in the best spirit. The tenants told him they had no money tor him, tor the reason that they couldn’t make sale of their cattle. and hadn't yet got in their harvest. Wherenpon he said he was perfectly willing to wait until they sold their stock or got in their crops, and the parting was iriendiy all around. As this very considerate agent was being driven home along the high road, a heavy fire was suddenly opened on the vehicle on which he and his son were seated. Mr. Bmyth says the :contents :0! four guns were blazed at him iron the side 01 a mountain range along which the high road runs. His vehicle was an Irish jaunting-car. on one side at whichâ€" that lacing the mountainâ€"Mr. Bmyth was seated. his son was on the other side and the driver occupied the dickey. Mr. Bmyth. by something like a miracle. wasn’t riddled with bullets; he wasn't struck at all, nor was any at the party. When the smoke cleared cfi, ionr armed men. with laces blackened, were observed standing about 60 yards up the aide oi the mountain, apparently wait- ing to see how many they had killed. Meantime, young Bmyth, rifle in hand. Jumped oil the car as it was being carried along at a swiit pace by the irightened horse, and dashed up the bank on the road side. The four armed men. seeing this, turned and fled up the mountain. It was new young Bmyth's turn to doa little shooting. He very deliberately took aim at one oi the fugitives, fired. and brought down his man dead. shot in the back, the bullet passing through the heart. Young Smyth fired again, but without etlect this time ; he re-losded and again fired. but the three men had got too iar away up the mountain. The heather where the dead man lay was red with his life‘s blood; his gun, a well made. double-barrel iowiing- piece. one barrel of which had been dis- charged. was icund some yards behind where he loll dead. He was without coat and hat; and at the place where the firing party had taken up their position. behind a quarry-hole in the side oi the hill, a coat and hat were iound. The dead man's face had been blackened with some greasy stuff. The Messrs. Bmyth drove to the nearest Police Barracks, taking with them the hat. coat and rifle, and brought out a constable, who took charge of the body. which be identified as that oiaman named Charles Howard, who had served in the North Mayo Militia. not holding any land. bearing no fixed home or occupation, and having. it is said, a bad character in the locality. Such is the cheeriui state oi afiairs land agents find in Ireland, as we learn iron the corres- pondent oi the New York Times. Whether the shooting oi Howard will do away with the correspondence oi “ Rory " remains to be seen, but it is- quite evident that the land- owners in Ireland have iallen upon a time when it behooves a man who values his life to have all his wits about him. I am in this country observing the conduct and tyranny of agents and landlords. Per- haps you are not awere that there in a very terse mm 0! money to he paid for the killing of you. Take heed to youreeu on the road between Ballycroy and Newport, for you will be killed. Boar. It eeeml that the land agent was not in any great degree (tightened by the epietle. but the probabilitiee are that he was not comforted to any great extent either. At all events, he handed it over to the police a! the district, and then let thinga take their course.

Mr. Baylis. an evangelist lrom Owosso, Grand Rapids, Mich., registered at one of our prim oipsl hotels. with a woman whom he called his wile. It turned out that the women was another man's wile (Mrs. Phssnix). whom he had sloped with. abandoning his own partner in llle et Owosso. The “ rev.”gentleman was arrested here on a charge 0! stealing a horse and buggy. but released on proving the property .was not stolen lrom his lriends at Owosso. It now appears that alter leaving here, Baylis wrote to his wile, asking her il she thought he would be mobbed ll be re- turned home. What reply she made to his letter is not known. but a any rate he decided to go back, and Batnrda night reached Owosso by rail, and walks out to Maple River. where his abandoned wile sojourns. He had scarcely reached home, however. when he was arrested by Ohicere Evans and Byeriy. at Grand napids. upon the charge of adultery. The evidence as to this accusation is said to be complete without eoming to Canada lor witnesses. His ap- pearance since his arrest and incarceration is that ola man in considerable dejeetion. but he lnlormed one gentleman who talked with him that he had not been so happy since he went away as he was now in jail. Mrs. Phoenix is said to have gone to Massa. chusetts to some lriends or relatives ol hers living there. " We were having e little eooiel party at our house lent Tuesday evening. I wee eit- ting beeide my huebend on the sofa. when he asked me to go across the room and intro- duce e couple of people that weren’t ecqueinted. I went. and juet then the light went out.

The jury ionnd a verdict at not guilty. When Adams next has occasion to scratch his heed. it is probable that he will find less hair there than when he scratched it the last time.

Middlosex coroner. Our old familiar friend, the ounce oi alcohol per dlem. again made its appearance. Mr. Wbyte held that an ounce and a hall oi spirit was the outside quantity which could be taken in tho course oi twenty-tour hours by a healthy man without producing poisonous eflects; while the maximum which a woman could imbibe with safety was three-quarters of an ounce; but ieebler people must take less, so that the average dose all round might be calculated at one ounce. Now an ounce of alcohol per diom is the maximum quantity which a tolo erent doctor can be persuaded to allow a pa- tient who has been in the habit oi hard drink- ing. and whose relatives are airaid that, it he be ‘ brought down to the pump all at onee.’ he will collapse. According to Mr. Whyto'e calculations the yearly consumption of alco. hoi per head oi the population is three and a quarter gallonsâ€"a most alarming item oi statistics; yet it is gratifying to learn that, out of twenty-tour millions of people in Eng- land, ten millions. reckoning abetainers and children. might be classed as non-consumers oi the fiery draught. The average consumer, it is less pleasantto be iniormed, imbibed two ounces and a hall a dayâ€"being an excesa of one ounce and a ball over the maximum oi toleratlon ; and there were inveterate topcra whose daily consumption of brain and stem. ach destroying spirits rose to seven, eight and ten ounces. But why not to sixteen ounces as well 2 ' A pint is a pound all the year round.’ the proverb tells us. and a con- firmed set would think nothing oi swallowing a pint oi alcohol in the course at the twenty- iour hours."
