and the tasteful he believed Morphy had made a false ment under oath, on one occasion ; and one James Fitzgerald also gave evidence tending to destroy the credibility cf the witness We subjoin the evidence of a couple of the other witnesses for the defence, from which the general nature of their statements may be seen Mr.Jon* Giblix, City Councillor, sworn __I have never heard a good character of the witness John Murphy.On the contrary, I h»ve always heard a bad one of him.If the shutting the shutter, Moore and the u runner\u201d were in the act of carrying Singleton into the room.The next I saw of Singleton was about half an hour afterwards, when 1 saw him upstairs, in bed.When I saw him there, his face was all swelled, and he was crying out about bis back.Rotcbford came up about five minutes afterwards, and let us spread a bed on the floor for old Singleton.Mr.Rotcbford brought up a tin of water to wash the blood\toff his\tface.I washed it off myself.Rotcbford was there at the time.Singleton\tdid\tnot, say any- thing\u2014he was moaning all ithis time.He, however, complained of^his back.The prisoner, Rotcbford, was present at the time.The deceased said his back was broken.The first difficulty between Rotcbford and the deceased, which I spoke of at the beginning of my evidence, took place when the deceased had been about four days in the house.It was then he got his first beating.Singleton had left some clothes on board his ship, and wanted to go for them ; but Rotcbford said he would go himself.Singleton was not satisfied, and still wanted to go.He got up off the bench in order to go ; but Rotcbford pushed him back three or four times.Singleton struck Rotch-ford in the face, and the latter struck him in return, on a sore part of his neck.It being then five o\u2019clock, the usual hour of adjournment, the examination of the witness was suspended, and the cose stood adjourned until next morning.THE JURV IN VIRBOIS' OAal.The jury, in Verbois\u2019 case, had not agreed upon a verdict at the hour of adjournment They were, therefore, locked up for the night ffllonnufl (ghtomcle.QUEBEC, FEBY.3.1864.festooned.The regimental standards of the Quebec Militia also occupied the usual places of hooor on room.At each side of the stage, and along the pillars, groups ôf rifles and bayonets arranged in trophies heightened the effect, and gave to the re-union that military character which it was right and proper it should possess.« o i v-\tI The coup diet 'd presented by the ball-room, Mr.Foley baa published his reply to the |\t^ grand entrance, or the ¦elf-coeatitated vigilance committee who were eeatre 0f tjje lower gallery, was beautiful and deairoas of arrogating to themselves, and their attractive in the extreme.It was indeed a gay bttle hotatnd-coroer doings at Conestoga, the scene.The spacious hall, filled with a inov- witb brignt-coiorea ounung, mnu me W«,ui\t?\ttrQe and well.fouDd.arrangement of this portion of the decoration ^Yn f«f I would not believe him on oath.7.\u201c 5M TThe \"pi>\u201d*ra -W\t£ -\"r 1 Ziï .ifh .wrgrn».ad flower.;

and there ia considerable reasoa for sap-peeing that it was a foregone intention to entrap the member for North Waterloo ia order that he should no longer be a trouble to the party.Mr.Foley pots the very pertinent question « was I right or wrong, not how does my vote « affect the Miuistry.\u201d This is really tbe question for his constituents, and he aalry « how coaid he do otherwise,\u201d and, as be very shrewdly remarks, \u201cIff, as a Reformer, was wrong, \u201c and deserve condemnation, how is it that \u201c the Speaker, Mr.Wallbridge, only elected a \u201c day before by this very Ministry, is not \u201c equally culpable with myself?\u201d And again, Honorary President\u2014F.X.Garneau.President\u2014Hector L.Langevin.Vice-Presidents\u2014J.C.Taché and G.H.Simard.Treasurer\u2014Arthur Gagnon.Assistant-Treasurer\u2014Isambar Wells.Recording Secretary\u2014Cyrille Tessier.Ass.do \u2014Norbert Thibault aad George Dnval.Corresponding Secretary\u2014Ernest Gagnon.Ass.do\u2014Leonce Taschereau and Elzear Lamontagne.Librarian\u2014L Abbé Casgrain.Curator of Mosenm\u2014Vincent Oaxeau.Board of Directors\u2014L\u2019Abbé Ferland, Dr.La Rue, Théophile Le Droit, T.E.Roy, L\u2019Abbé Auelair, Eugene Taché, Arthur Tascherau, L'Abbé Racine, George Desbarats, jr., L.J.C.Fleet, Joseph Hamel, J.D.Brousseau, A.H.Verret, Alexandre Le Moine, Edouard Gagnon and Edouard J.Langevin.\u201c BLACKWOOD\u201d FOR JANUARY.\u201c Old Ebony \"\u2014as this veteran periodical is familiarly and affectionately called\u2014comes to ns full of good tbiogs.A| review of Capt.Speke\u2019s journal is very cleverly written,\u2019 and contains many extracts from that highly interesting work.\u201c Tony Bntlera delightfial novel, is continued, as also tbe well known \u201c Chronicles of Carlingford.\u201d From Pisis-tratua Caxton, there is a characteristic production in verse, entitled82,079.46 ;

but what must one think of men like the writers of the Mercury, for instance, who, after having been shewn the exact truth, after having seen clearly the untrntbfulness of their former statements, still repeat them, and continue, notwithstanding, precisely tbe same arguments for week after week ?I leave to the conscience of honest people to frame the answer.53\" The gas from the wells on Oil Greek, Pa., is now being utilized.Many of the miners use it for fuel, instead of coil or oil.A pipe running direct from tbe conducting apparatus of tbe well to the engine-house condncts the gas to the fires.The plan works admirably.Sr.Paul\u2019s Church, Southtobt.\u2014The work of furnishing and embellishment of St.Paul\u2019s Church, Southport, is approaching completion.Through tbe exertions of Mr.Patrick Hunter accommodation will be provided for the poor.Tbe windows have been painted.The principal one, at tbe west end of the church, is excellent in design and execution.In a separate compartment, at tbe bottom of the window, tho scroll work contains tbe following inscription :\u2014\u201cIn memory of Algernon Reveley, infant son of Patrick and Maria Hanter, who died at Hawarden, 13th March, 1851, aged eight months.\u201d The chancel, when fully completed, with its sculptured ornaments, its handsome stone pulpit, tbe gift of Mr.F.A.Tamplin, its reading desk, and above all its windows, will be well worthy of the rest of the sacred edifice.\u2014Southpoit Visitor.COMMERCIAL.DAILY SHARE LIST.One P.M., 2nd February, 1864.Sellers Banka\u2014Quebec.\u2014.».La Banque Nationale.Montreal.\u2014.\u2014.Commercial.'.\u2014.Toronto\u2014.\u2014.-.La Banque du Peuple.Ontario.\u2014.-.British North Amorica.Upper Canada.\u2014.Moison\u2019s.» Banque Jacques-Cartier.(lore.Eastern Townebipe.City Bonk.Gas Companies\u2014 Quebec.Montreal.\u2014 Toronto.Assurance\u2014Quebec Fire.Quebec Marine.Mining\u2014Englith and Canadian.Megan tic.Montreal Mining Consols.Huron Copper Bay- Montreal City Passenger Railroad.Telegraph Stock.Richelieu Navigation Co.St Lawrence Towboat Co.Bonds\u2014Qovt 6 p c\u2019t, cy, due 9 yrs.6 5 Harbors\u2014Quebec, 8 8 7 Montreal, 8 »! 61 6J Corp\u2019tns\u2014Quebec 6 Montreal 6 W.Works, Quebec 7 Montreal 6 \u2022t* cy 20 « 20 1 \u201c 17 ' « 5 ' \u201c 10 ' i< 5 i \u201c 7 1 «\t^\ti t says the new call for troops was rendered necessary by recent advices from the South.It is certain that the House will agree to that section of the Senate bill, which provides that tbe draft shall be repealed in each district hence tbe quota assigned is filled.A despatch from Russellville, Tennessee, dated Jan.27th, says that the appmj evacuated Jaswell yesterday morning, retting towards Cumberland Gap Major Day occupied tbo place that same day, capturing some stores and property.Our troops are being rapidly clothed.Goveruor Vance, of North Carolina, has kindly offered Genl.Longstreet enough cloth iog to supply his command American, who utters the British com- Mr.Dolan stated that Townley purchased seven rhite hats aqd three umbrellas at one shop, upon him the course he professed tant to adopt.I was determined that an op- | \u2019d in order to di^ng^h one frop aq- portunRy should be niven him to make in pub-other he cut square holes in them of diflferent I He the statement he bqd pirculqted P'l™1®1^ .J \u201c T,!,, ham on alternate davs.lin and as in my address I said I would do.I did sizes, and wore the hats on alternate daysjin spite of remonstrances.On another occasion Townley accompanied Mr.Dolan to some swimming baths, and plunged in with his clothes on.On being told about it he expressed his surprise at what had occurred, and said he believed he had been undressed.He had ilso turned tbe pictures ip his rooms upside own, and otherwise acted in a very extraor-inary manner.An explanation was given tq the Home Secretary as to why this e vidence was not known or addqoed qpqn the trial.Nine of tbe jury who tried Townley signed a memorial to the Home Secretory, stating that although their verdict was a just one, they were of Mkridan, Jan.26th.\u2014The enemy exhibits | opinion that an inquiry ihoqld be made M tO qnusnal activity at Vicksburg.Reinforce ménts have been rent here from Memphis.Qenl.Sherman ani River tit.THEY WOULD STATE THAT SUCH AN OPPORTUNITY FOR OBTAINING CHEAP THINGS!
