Ezoomnrcnt was made on the sagacity of': ithe horse, a spirited animal, which stood '1. quite docile by his prostrated master.â€" 4 No clear intelligence of the calamity could be got however, and in the even- I ing ‘two of Mr. Doyle’s brothers taking is with them Dr. Barnhart, started for I; Flesherton to ascertain what 'was the ~ i matter. On arriving at Flesher‘ton, they i discovered that a man (not their broth-_ 3 2 er,) had been found by the roadside on a- i Sunday morning, sudering, not from the e ‘ strength of 'the sun, but from the. t! strength of the whiskey be had imbib- ,5 L ed !

S. â€"- I Times la! inst. sti About 3 o’clock on the morning of the 23rd ult., the Wesleyan Church rc- eently erected in Cornabuss was dis~ covered to be on fire, and before the progress of the flames could he stopped was totally destroyed, nothing being saved but the stoves, a bible and the pulpit. The stable and barn of Mr. Armstrong, both new frame buildings, were also burned to the ground. The buildings were isolated, and must have been set on fire, ‘a suspicion which 'was" strengthened by a lot of shavings being discovered which had evidently been used in kindling the flame. Suspicion at once rested on Mr. Robert Caswcll, a farmer in the vicinity, who appeared to entertain a hatred of Methodists, and i when under the influence of liquor was by no means backward in expressing it. Tracks (supposed to be his) were found from the church to the barn, and then i to his house. He has been arrested and i is now in jail awaiting trial.â€"15. Ireland at the present moment is in " a very disturbed state, in Spite of the terrors of the Coercion bill. Cork is afl‘ected with a trade strike, everybody having left work and taken to rioting} in the streets. The strike commenced g with the tailors, and now the youngl ladies of the industrial class remain at home and sympathise with the “boys” if they do not take part in the rows. iIn the rural. districts a'ggragrian out- } rages flourish with unabated vigor, and l l as landlords are getting scarce the rib- lbon-men have taken to killing cattle. A case has just been disposed of at a l, . special commission in the county of}; Meath, which gives us a geod‘ insight I : into the deplorable condition of the1 country. A man named Geraty was charged with attempting to murder a . Mr. Radcliffe and during the trial one Bradyr an informer; gave an interesting khistory of Gearty‘s life and career.- Gearty belonged to the order of Rib- bon-men and what is called a- carrion- tbutcher, or a dealer in the carcascs of leattle dying from disease or accident. 1 ln furtherance of his trade he was in the habit of killing beasts in the field in such a way as toleave no visible ex- ’ ternal marks of the cause of death. He would then attend as a purchaser of l the caresses, and such was the terror he [ and the Society to which he belonged r had inspired, that no competing buyer 9 dared“ to bid against him, and the herds 9 and farm servants eonceaicd, as far as 3' they could, the cause of the animals’ e death. Ribbonism, like other secret societies, has its grades, and Geratv’s butclieries soon made him a conspicuous member and promoted him in the society to be: “one of Rory’s sons,” who are slayers of landlords and not of cattle. But Geraty was not a successful son of Rory. He was selected to murder Mr. Radcliffe, an unpopular landowner, failed to do so and was sentenced to penal servitude for life for the attempt. The extraordinary disclosures made in this trial have led to the formation of vigilance committees and mutual pro- tection societies among the landlords and respectable classes of the districts where Bibbonism is most rife. It is probable that much good will result from this, but it is hardly likely that outrages non of every-day occurrence can be prevented. The lower class of the rural pepulation sympathizcs with the perpetrators and shows an unwil- lingness to give information which looks very muehlik‘e willing complicity in the crimes. A False Alarm.

V 1 While liberal donations have been received L] from every Province of the Dominion, it may not be invideous to mention that the C largest subscription from any one place was [1 , received from the city of Quebec, and was [)1 collected by Mr. Michael Stevenson. The 0 ‘ County Councils of York, Peel, Enron, and e b’ ‘ Lambton, the City Council of Toronto, and r ‘81 several Township Councils, have also 2 nia “ 8 C 1- 1 made contributions. The remainder of the t , fund has been made up from private sub. scriptions throughout the country, and from ,6 *, an appropriation by the Toronto Volunteer Relief Committee. A site in the Queen’s ‘ Park was determined upon, from its public 1 _ position, and the immediate location was I -.n chosen on account of its natural beauty.

Mr. Robert Reid, of the firm of Mavor 00., ot the Montreal Sculpture and Marble Works, furnished the plan that has been adopted, and his firm have most satisfactorily accomplished the work as contractors. To ensure the safety of the monument from wanton or malicious ‘ acts of destruction, it will be surrounded by chem-m: dc frieze, and protected by a lodge. row The statuary is chiselled from. Italian mar- 3'" ble; the steps and base are composed of‘ are Montreal limestone, and the sandstone of was Nova Scotia furnishes the material for the her body of the monument and for the delicate stone carving upon it.

Now, let me not be mis- of understood. I speak not of the whole ti: of the Irish people. I know that there so are thousands and hundreds of thousands h; untainted; but the taint of this wicked tl folly is spread too far and too wide. p1 ' The Fenian conspiracy exists without d. a single object in view which any ra- t1 tional being can propose to attain by its a continuance. Thousands, as we have v , seen of late, are ready at its bidding to l g 1- abounding in resources, where every ° steady, sober man can obtain employ- ment, and rise by his own exertions to competency and comfort. They turn away from this fair prospect, and cross our border in defiance of every moral, social,and internal obligation, and in contempt of the warnings and teachings of the clergy they were in better days wont to revere. They seem to grudge of his honest industry‘the house he has built, the fields he has cleared with his own hands, and above all, the free institutions of his own choice, under which he and his children may prosper. But the Canadian settler has no idea of weakly yielding himself up a prey to the spoiler. He has proved himself as superior to his would-besconquerors in military prowess as in honest purpose, and administered lessons to them on two separate occasions, which, it is to be hoped, will prove of las‘tin'g impression.

We ‘ have been informed by Mr. Fagan that there was no insurance whatever on the ,premises. It is a great pity that such I devilish deeds cannot be brought home to the guilty parties; It Was the act of a cowardly, ignorant, low, miserable villain, and a man who is a living dis- ,grace to humanity.
