JAMES BAIRD, PRINCE ALBERT, SEP' CONFEDERATION QN CRUTCHES, The Canadian Confederation is being be- wet on the right and on the left. On the one hand Nova Scotia sets up its gab and tells us that there is no civilized country under the sun that has so abominable a con- stitution as our Confederation has adopted, and of ull the evils that could possibly be'al their Nova Scotianshipe, no infliction is re- garded with hall the dread as that of being forced to adopt the constitution of Canada ; and they declare that if Great Britain will be kind enough to mind her own business,stand aside und leave Canada to her fate, she (Nova Scotia) will very soon take the wind out of Canada and her constitution too, and may teach her in future to respect the rights of others. Next we have British Columbia, an in- #igoificaut litle Colony, somewhere away beyond sundown, coming forward and de- manding of us the most extravagant condi- 'tions ere she will consént to join the confed- «eralion, or in other words to ask a most ex- orbitant boot ere they will consent to trade their present constitution for the constitution of Canada. In tact the demande are so out- rageous that they seem almost like mockery. Tue following are a few of the conditions apou which British Columbia will (conde- #cend to smile benignly upon us, enter the ning and become part and parcel of the Confederation :-- et. The Confederation must pay off the debt of British Columbia, said debt amount- dug to over $1,500,000. = 20d, The Conlederation must pay the expenses of the Local Government of B:ilish Columbia, giving also to them the right to lax themselvesus the Act provides, and also granting them a subsidy of so much per capita, 3d. The Confederation - will construct, within two years of the ime when British Columbia enters the Conlederation, an early travelled road 10 start from Lake Su- petior, and go as far as the head of naviga- "tion of the Fraser river. 4th. The Confederation will give to British Columbia representative institutions, and se- cure to her a control over the Government. On these conditions alons will British Columbia agree to enter into the confedera- tion of Canada. To iltese conditions Canada, pet Mr. Til- ley, very gracionsly replied :-- "The Fedral Government desires a un- ion with British Columbia, and has entered into communication with tne Imperial Gov- ernment, upon the subject of the resolutions containing the conditions proposed by British Columbra," &e., &c. Certainly the wings both right and left of the Confederation are 1 a shaky condition and bear heavily ou ths centre. A CLEAN SWEEP, The devastation committed by the grass- hoppers in the Red River Seulement bas been much more complete than was at first supposed. The rapacious little brotes first 'made \beir appearance in lat settlement in alarming numbers 1 1861, but their opera- tions were confined lo a small area. We learn from that quarter that in July of last year they invaded the county in cloads from he south-west, but the crops were too far advanced for them to do much mischief just then, but they prepared an. enemy for the ing year, they deposited their eggs and left, The seeding of te past spring was scarcely finished before the emomy began to manifest himself, the young hop made their appeaiance in numbers abso lately frightfully, bat their ravages were more dreadful still. As they cume out of the ground like an infernal host they turned their desolating match in a sonthward direc- tion stripping the earth of every green thing uid Jeaving bohind them a barren, dreary, cheerless waste. The hopes of the hus- bs i destroyed in oue night, his tiful green fie ls were sinipped of ever y- ekiagool a blade of grass hved afer legion Er ction had passed o'er ; ¢ of the country was left one 'expanse of desolati the relief of the sufferers; Hamilton has fol- lowed the example, and Toronto 1s begin- ning to talk. The loss of the buffalo is be- ginning to be severely felt in that seitle- ment ; at ane time it was so plentyful mn and around the settlement that more than half of the population made a comfortable living in honting these animals, and supplying the whole settlement with an abundance of flesh which was given in exchange for grain. Year after year this supply has been regu- tarly diminishing and tue difficulty of pro- curing it still becoming greater, till at Jast the animal can scarcely be found within a hundred miles of the settlement, and in the present mstance little is expected from that source as the hunting is expected to prove an entire, failure. =~ --e et. SHOCKING DEATH. A lamentabla accident took place at Port Perry on Friday, 11th instant, in which a laboring man named B ois lost his life.-- Deceased was' a comparative stranger in the locality, having been there little over a month. On the day in question he was as- sisting Mr. Ireland, a carpenter, in moving an old building, said building was intended for a reeidence for deceased, who purposed bringing his family. The bumilding was raised 10 a considerable height and placed on rather shaky supports. Deceased went under the house on purpose to drive a wedge, the first stroke he gave the piop gave way and the house fell right upon him. He was taken out as quickly as possible ; the sill had rested on his back. He was soon re- stored 10 consciousness and lived over three hours from the time he was taken out. He leaves a widow and seven children in very poor circumstances. The body was taken Lome to is family at Holland Landing. et THE BONUS SEASON, Saturday next is the day appointed for the Ratepayers of West Whitby to grant or with- hold the solicited bonus of $15,000 to aid in the construction of the Whitby and Port Perry Railway, 'The issue is confessedly rather doubtful, parties who pretend to know the bearings of the case, confidently assert that there is no chance jor the By-law, while otners who pretend to know quite as much of futurity, are no less confident of the suc- ness of the measure. The Rate-payers of the Township of Ux- bridge will cast their voles on the same day for granting a bonus to the Torento and Nip- issing Railway Company. The result of this vote is looked forward to with perfect confidence by the people of the municipal- ity, no one doubts its success for a moment Uxbridge 1s too wide awake to the advan- tages which that road would confer to hesi- tate whether they ought to vote yea or nay. The best informed in that quarter consider that there will be no trouble in carrying the By-law. . ----------t---- PORT HOPE PICKING UP, A public meeting of the inhabitants of Porc Hope was held in the Town Hall on Saturday 12th inst., for the purpose of mov- wg in the matter of assisting the Port Hope and Lindsay Railway Company in extend- ing their road from Lindsay to Beaverton.-- After fully discussing the merlts of the ex- tension a vole granting a bonus of $40,000 was carried with the greatest cheerfulness. This will secure the speedy construction of the extension. This extension will prove highly beneficial to Beaverton and sever. | otl.er places along the route, and will vastly increase the traffic ou that line, but it cannot fail to cut our northern trade to a consider- able extent.

What follows may be briefly stated as the whole has culminated, in the convict= 1ony'of the accused. 4 ] Downes swore that he knew Whalen ab- out three years ago in Quebec, he knew him by the name of Sullivan. Says he saw him standing at the; entrance to the House of Commons on the evening of the murder about 9 o'clock, saw him go into the House then, saw him come out an hour after and go to the Russel House, saw him again go nto the House about half-past 11 o'clock; saw him come out soon after and again shortly returned, but again soon came oul as the House had adjourned. Spoke to Whalen who told him.the members were coming out. Witness could not tell the col- or of the clothes that Whalen wore on ihe night in question. This is a rather singular admission afier swearing that he had seen him so often during the night. The next] witness was one Graham, a doorkeeper mn the House, he made a perfect ass of him- salf, general visitor, while Mr. McGee was able to attend the House, but never saw him there while Mr. McGee was sick or absent; and upon cross-examination he swears as postively that he did not know when McGee attended the House and when be did not, neither did he know if Mr. McGee attend ed the early part of the session or not, did not know when McGee was absent from sickness, knew nothing aboot his being pre- sent or absent ; still he swore that Whalen was absent when McGee was not there but generally attended when McGee was preo- sent. First swore that Whalen had given nim 4 entrance tickets, and again he swears that he got only 3 tickets, and finally swears that the deposition which he swore to before the Magistrate was wiong. Of course it was only waisting tite to listen to such trum- pery. Detective O'Neil was the next witness-- swears that Patrick Buckley was one of those whose information induced him to ar rest Whalen. Detective swore to finding a revolver and a box of cartridges on Whalen's person when he apprehended him, and he considered that there was semething odd in the way 1 which the cartridges were greas- ed, that one chamber seemed to have been recently dischaiged, while the others seemn- ed to have been loaded lor a considerable time. Davis, a policeman, corroberates O'- Neil's evidence. The next witness of any conseqaence was one Inglis. Heard Wha- len say during McGee's last eloction contest at Montreal that if he (McGee) were elected he would not take his seat, and if he did he would not hold it long. ~~ Witness says he asked Whalen who wouid do anything to McGee, when he replied if no one else would, he (Whalen) would do it himself.-- Heard him at another time call McGee a traitor. Turner was the next witness-- has been acquainted with Whalen since 1866. Heard hum say just before MoGee's late election, that he would as soon take McGee's life as drink a cup of tea. Witness said he heard Whalen on another occasion say that he would go up and blow McGee's bloody brains out--this was a few days before Mc- Gee's late election. Heard him further say that thongh McGee is elected, he wiil not reign long! I will blow his bloody bras cut before the session is over. Witness says he told McGee of what Whalen had said.-- Witness goes on to state (hat he listened to a conversation between Whalen and Doyle, heard the prisoner say that he had been ut MeGee's house, heard Doyle ask if McGee had opened the door, when Whalen replied: No by , or 1 would have shot him like a dog. The witnees liad his evidence pretty well shaken in the cross-examuination by Mr. Cameron Wade, the Detective, was the next evi- dence called. Heard Whalen say that Me- Gee might live (6 see the new year come in but would not see Jt go out. The next witnesses were Cullen and Hess, who say they heard a conversation in the jail between Whalen and Doyle, where Whalen confessed or rather admitted the murder, and Doyle said that he was sory that Whalen did it. The case for the defence commenced on Declared on oath that Whalen was af five and a half hours between his short ad- dress and the reading over the ii inabl evidence produced in the case, The wy retired at ball-past eight o'clock an: Monday evening aod came into court twenty five micutes) pasi ten on ' 4 indo y Tuesday morning with a verdict of guilty t the prisoner. tx i "This puts an end to all snapicion and doubt in the matter, and the civilized world will bow to the decision," and acquiesce in its justice. There was no other decision possible under the circumstances, and it should be a matter of thankfulness that it is next to impossible for the y aye, even the midnight assassin to escape ihe the iron grasp of stern justice or shelter bimself from the h which heaven and earth demands shonll follow the crime. 'The most: lamentable exhibition of this humiliating spectacle was the unfortunate defence set up by the prisover in giving his reasons why the sentenca of death should not be foronounced upon hum. The execution 1s fixed for the tenth day of December next. --------t ~~~ ---- eset} QUARTERLY FAIR. 4 - The enterprising inhabitants of Saintfield and surrounding neighborhood have stepped nobly forward and inaugurated the eysiem of Quarterly fairs; this is a step in the right direction and: reflects much credit on the promoters. There 1s one important fact, however, which must not be overlooked, that ie,that it is not by the energy and enter- prize of a few backed up by their liberality that can keep these fairs floating, but the entire locality will have to fall in, give their countenance,and encourage buyers and, sel- lers to turn out, each one taking what stock he has to sell aud going there to purchase what he 1equires. ~~ Offer plenty of good stock and buyers will soon find their way to the Suintfield Fair.

A string of witnesses followed each one ad- ding a stroke or two to Hess' already murky character. Certainly the evidence in this case is humiliating, and if only half of that which many of them say of each other be true, I should much dread being brought under their tender mercies. The majority of the Witnesses for the defence with a large number of those for the prosecution cut a sorry figure in the witness box.

It is well known that Ry stock seldom pays the stockholders, though railways are al- ways paying concerns for the people ; he would wish that the council would look favorably on the proposed By-law, and al- low it to go before the people.

A special meeting of the above Council took place, pursnaul to notice, at the Town Hall Manchester, on Saturday, 12h inst. The Reeve took the chair at 2 o'clock p.m. Present.-- Reeve, Mr. Gordon, and Mr. Steel. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. % The Reeve stated that the purpose of the present meeting was chiefly to take into consideration this very much talked of Manchester road allowance, in order to as- certain what disposition the Couneil inte: ed to make of it. The members of council, he sand, were aware that a By-law had been passed,closing up a cenam part of sad road allowance, and then another By-law offer- ing the same for sale at $500. That ac- cording tothe conditions of the latterBy-law. Mra. Mitchell was to have the first offer 10 purchase the road in question, and af she did not accept of the offer within fa given time, twen it was to be offsred for sale to any other person, hut not for a less sum than 500 That Mrs. Mitchell had been duly noufi=d of these facts, and the pant of the road referred to in the By-law was regu- larly offered to her for $500. Fung after the lapse of the specified time that no reply hl been received, and celieviog that it might be possible that she did not receive the communication in question, she was notified a second ttme--but since then she had acknowledged the receipt of the former communication. She said the corporation was asking more than the property 1s worth. Now the tine has agmin elapsed since the second communication was received, it is plain therelore that Mis, Michell refuses to purchase, and it is now fur the conneil to say what is 10 be done with said road, as it 18 time the matter was settled, Tha Clerk read a communication from the Uxbridge eonneil, stating that saul coone! had appropriated $20 ou the town line be- tween Uxbridge ant Reach, opposite lots 12 and 13, Uxbridge, on condition that the Township ot Rea:h would appropriate a like sum. The communication was laid on the table, Mr. Gordon presented the account of Mr. Joseph Dobson, tor $8.50 -- being for 3 inmbs killed by dogs wt $2 each,jaud $2 50 for costs, On motion of Mr, Gordon the account was ordered to be paid. . James IK. Gordon Esq.,\Whitby, made the following offer for the road Howance re- that he wiil ferred to in the By-law, v e $500 for sand road al 2p and in part payment of sail $500 he will give lot No. Lin the pian ot the village of Man- chester, valued at $295.12, aod that he will carry oul any agresment which the council may have made with any pany re- garding any part of smd road allowance. The Reeve said that the council had en tered into writings with Mr. I". Jefliey, that in the event of the council granting to him (Mr. Jeflrey) the lot in front of his building 40 feet wile, then he Jelliey, woald bar ali right to interfere with the council in the event of the conneil's selling the rest of the road allowance referred to. He (The Reeve)would therefore prefer exempting the 40 feet referred to fiom that sold to Mr. Gordon. Afier considerable discussion Mr. Jefirey was sent for. When he came be- fore the council the Reeve asked hin whether he intended to give 875 for the lot in tront of his place. He replied that he had been considering the maiter, he hated to throw any obstacle in the way of setile- ment, but he considered that $75 was too mach for tho lot--$50 he 1dered would ) Newly discovered Virtues--Hidden for Esq., making in all $235.88. And the village of Manchester will have Lot No. 1 thrown open fur public convenience in the centre Bd village.
