placing the muzzle of the piatol under his chin, discharged it, the ball pasting out of hit right check.Finding this effort to destroy life ineffectual, he discharged three balls into his abdomen, and then attempted to terer his windpipe by drawing a knife across his throat.He was fonnd some time during Friday night at his residence, in bed and still nlire, by tome men from Cascade in pnrsuit of

TERRIBLE SCENE AT A BALL.At Madrid, a few nights back, a lady gave a ball, aud amongst the guests were a M.R_____ and Mdlle.B.It was observed that the young man constantly kept close to the young ladv, and followed her when she went from one part \u2019of the room to the other.It was also noticed that she seemed greatly annoyed by Lis attentions.The mother of the young lady wished to interfere, hut the mistress of the house, anxious to avoid an unpleasant scene, prevented her.At a late hour a lady of high rank and her daughter were announced, and the whole party rose to receive them.M.U-, taking advantage of the slight confusion, which this created, seized Mmlcmos-ltc B-by the Laud, and whispered something in her ear.She turned pale, then blushed, and replied in a low voice.Thereupon, the young man, without sayiug a word, pulled a poignard from his pocket, aud stabbed the young Indy in the breast, and then stubbed himself near the heart.Both fell bathed in blood.\u2014A surgeon was immediately sent fur, aud on his arrival he found that the wound of the young lady was not mortal, ns the poignard had struck the sternum but the vouttg mart was quite dead.It is said that M.It-had loug sought Mdlle.B-in marriage, but that she had refused to accept hiur, and that meeting her at the bull he again pressed POSITION OF OUR COMMUNITY.\u2014IMMEDIATE ACTION CALLED FOR.We understand that legal proceedings are immediately about to be commenced on behalf of Messrs.Maxharn and Brothers, to set aside the return of the sitting Candidates for St.Peter\u2019s and Champlain Ward.The normal condition of this country it, it mould seem, fur the future to be that of a government by brute force, intimidation, ami roicdyitm.The sooner this great fact is distinctly understood, the better.Our legislators may ultimately conceive that the personal security of Her Majesty\u2019s subjects, and the prese'rva-tion of the public peace, are mutters not entirely below their attention.That the Police of Quebec mill not act against mobs, is notorious, and it appears that every THE HONBLE.F.LEMIEUX.This gentleman\u2019s acceptance of office having met with the unanimous approval of his constituency, his re-election has taken place without opposition.A numerous and highly respectable cortege escorted the worthy member through the city this morning in carioles.HEART RENDING CALAMITY ! Three children of a f Vi don\u2014burnt to death!!\u2014It is our melancholy task to mention the above sad results of an imprudent visit with a lighted candle to a garret.On Wednesday night one of the daughters of a widow named Tardif, residing with her six children in a small house at Cap Blanc, on the Cove road, went to the garret in search of something, when a spark fell from her candle and ignited u quantity of oakum lying on the door.The mother and one of the children aged eleven years, throw themselves upon the flames to smother them, but in vain, and the entire garret was soon in one blaze.Seeing no means of extinguishing the conflagration, and thinking they were all doomed to die, the frantic rowdy is under the special protecliou of 1™\",\"!\" Se.i\u201d) kind French Canadian

St.Andrew\u2019s Society, Toronto, held on the 8th ult., to aid the Patriotic Fund, Judge McLean stated n fact which will be intcrcaling to Canadians.Not only were we interered in the result of the comevt, on eccount of the gallant men who the manufacture or admixture of atmospheric air will cause a loss of from 20 to 50 per cent, in illuminating power.\u201d It might be well to request the Commissioners from Cana»ta to the Pans Exhibition of 1855, to be good enough to enquire into this as well ns into the advantage of purchasing one or more of those machines by which in London and Paris Firemen can at once in safety be elevated to whatever portion of the premises on fire is most desirable.During the past year three miles of water pipes have been laid, and the water.turned on within the city, and we have just reason to hope that in four of our wards there is no longer cause to fear extensive fires.Among the many benefits arising from these works several medical men of eminence have attributed our having suffered less from cholera than Montreal last summer, unlike former ysars, to the use of the Loretta water.The different system which the hydrants will render necesiary at fires suggests the propriety of considering, whether train oil men added to the Police force and skilled m the management of these works incorporated with a select and greatly reduced number of firemen would not considerably increase the efficiency and economy of tho fire department.The whole coat to complete the Aqueduct and Drainage, as estimated within the last three months by Mr.Baldwin, our Engineer, will be £ 177,5U) cy., of this the drainage and sewerage will abéorb £107,500 cy., a much larger amount than was Oki jinally contemplated, but as the work progressed it was found impossible to take the necessary precautions for the public health without enlarg- Ether Sc Oils.\u2014A Paris paper states that Dr.Grireler, a French gentleman, has discovered that by adding a few drops of nitric ether to the most rancid oils, all the disagreeable smell is removed, and that by afterwards warming the oil, to separate the spirit from it, it becomes as clear and limpid as though it had never been otherwise than sweet.He says that a few drops of ether in a bottle of oil will prevent it from ever becoming rancid.BY TELEGRAPH.TIA MONTREAL LINE.ARRIVAL OF T™ STEAMS* A TL

Irritability, Inflamma» Hons, Headache, I\u2019ains in tho Breast, Side, Back, \u2022ad Limbs, Female Complaints, Ac.&c.Indeed, very few arc the diseases in which a Purgative Medicine is not more or less required, and much sickness and suffering might be prevented, if a harm-les* but effectual Cathartic were more freely used.No person can feel well while a costive habit of body prevails; besides it soon generates serious and bv\tbeen ayoidod This is alike tmo of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and Bilious derangements.They all tend to become or produce the (loop seated nnd formidable distempers which loud the hearses all over the land.Hence a reliable family physic is of the first importance to the public health, nnd this Fill has hoen perfected with consummate skill to meet that demand.An extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Professors, and Patients, hns shown results surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicine.Cures have been effected beyond belief, were they not substantiated by person* of such exalted position and character ns to forbid the suspicion of untruth.Among tho many eminent gentlemen who have testified in favor of these Fills, wo may mention : Du.A.A.Hayes, Analytical Chemist, of Boston, end State Assaycr of Massachusetts, whoso high professional character ia endorsed by the Hon.Edwaud Everett, Senator of the U.8.Robert C.Wintukot, Ex-Spcakcr of tho Housa of Representatives.Abbott Lawrence, Minister Plcn.to England t J -UN B.FiT7.PATUiCK.Cath.Bishop of BostoiK Also, Du.J.R.Chilton, Practical Chemist, of Now York City, endorsed by Ilox.W.L.Maucy, Secretary of State.> Wm.B.Astoh, the richest man in America.8.Leland & Co., Propr\u2019s of tho Metropolitan Hotel, and others.Did spaee permit, we could give many hundred certificates, from all parts where the Pills have been used, but evidence even more convincing than the experience of eminent public men ia found in their effects upon trial.These Pills, the result of long investigation and study, are offered to tho public as tho best and most complete which tho present state of medical science can afford.They are compounded not of the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal vixtuea only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical Srocess in a state of purity, nnd combined togethef i such a manner a* to insure the best results.This system of composition for medicines has been found In the Cherry Pectoral and Pill* both, to produce a tnore efficient remedy than had hitherto been obtained by any process.The reason is perfectly obvious- While by the old mode of composition, cvcrv medicine is burdened with more or less of acrimonious and injurious qualities, by this each individual virtue only that is desired for the curative effect is present.All tho inert and obnoxious quoi itics of each substance employed nre left t>chind, the curative virtues only being retained.Hence it ia self-evident the effects should prove aa they have proved more purely remedial, and the Pills a surer, more powerful antidote to disease than any othoc mediemo known to tho world.As it is frequently expedient that my medicine should be taken under tho counsel of an attending Physician, and as he could not properly judge of fe remedy without knowing its composition, 1 jVctr York Advertisements.FROM VISSCHER k SCHELL\u2019S GENERAL ADVERTISING
