And we stare stupidly at the\u2019 great gray mass, and enquire, \u201cHow did it happen?\u2019 of a passer-by.\u201cHaven't read the daily ghapers, eh?Why the president and officers of tite Bank concluded they could make a good thing of it, 80 they closed for twenty cents on the dollar.\u201d Not much change, we query, as we think of the ruined hopes and desolate homes which are caused by the mournful news, \u201cBank closed.\u201d But here dashes past the elegant phaeton of the head of the defaulting house.The well groomed bays and the liveried coachman are the same.The bland face of the owner still paid for Hides.Cogain & Son.-|in his place ;

and we hope that the time is com- for event shall come to pass, and, liquor is sold, it shall not be, as it now is, under the protection me lar h à res aïe very ere, an every night one 0 mob are in progress in some of the halls.We don\u2019t attend them all ;

but when we entered the lofty hall and found seated there the very elite of the city, we concluded to remain and hear what was to be said, Mr Hobbe is pastor of the Christian church and a man of rare genius, and as we listened to his clear reasoning and admirable logic we could but admire the manner in which he brought Scripture to prove his ground, and came away strengt ened in faith and feeling only pity for the grey headed man, (Dr.Sawyer), who could stand up before his Maker and such an enlightened audience and openly deny and attempt to disprove the arguments of the istian minister.Pantheists, Anti-Christs, and Spiritualists draw their crowds, and when we reflect on the vast numbers there are of such people in every city, and more particularly in the Western States, we cease to marvel at the prevalence of crime, notwithstanding the efforts of the different Christian churches to establish a better moral atmosphere.But this is a live cit and an enterprising people, and althoug we see many flaws, (a8 where can you not), yet there is much to admire and emulate, and we would be glad to see the people in your county take the same interest in education and schools generally as is done ere.When next wo write we propose you something of our work in thi For the present we have got through.MARGARET.Bloomington, Illinois, Nov.2.\u2014 SUBJECTS FOR THOUGHT \u2014 AND FOR SOMETHING MORE THAN THOUGHT.To the Editor of the Canadian Gleaner.Srr,\u2014Much lately has been written and spoken upon the subject of processions in our towns and citics,\u2014Montreal, especially, \u2014and while the fact of their undesirableness has by many been admitted, a large portion of the writers and speakers have concurred in eondemning the one proposed, by the Orangemen, in the city of Montreal.It, doubtless, ia not desirable to keep up a discussion on this subject beyond what may be considered by many as reasonable limits, and especially as with some is the impression that such limits have already been reached ; yet, because I believe there are considerations not yet presented, or, if so, only very partially, I want to say a word or two upon them now.My impression has been, and is, that all public party processions had better be discontinued, especially as our community is 80 mixed,\u2014so discordant in views and so antagonistic in feeling,\u2014yet, while I believe not a few, with myself, entertain this conviction, I have seen such expressions of dissent from this ns of position and influence, that despair of any action being taken in that direction by which an end so desirable might be reached.Seeing such to be the case I distinctly demur at the conclusion to which a certain class of public men are pointing, viz, that the Orange processsion only is to be denounced and prohibited: o plea for this is, to prevent a dis turbance, which would most surely occur, if the procession was held.But this iss proposition that should not be settled hastily and without due consideration of other facts of general and impoitant interest.First\u2014Is an Orange procession in the city of Montreal, or any where else, illegal ?and if not so\u2014for it is not\u2014#hy then attempt to suppress it ?, Would not an attempt to suppress it boa virtual confession that it is not constitutional law which should prevail on such sn occasion, but mob law, rather ; and that by an arrangement of measures to compel compliance with its demands, the authorities of the city or country would be, must be, retelling ct.garded as pandering to mob rule.But if|b good government 1s to be maintained, then each citizen or subject, being alike under its protection, should be protected in all his well understood and acknowledged legal rights, even though the whole means of the empire were necessary for effecting such an object.To ignore such a fact Is to compromise a principle of more importance and value than any city or class in the Empire, Secondly-\u2014 But for the sake of peace, it is said, men should waive their rights, inasmuch as their procession is sure to stir up bad feelings among Roman Catholics, and thereby run the risk of strife, bloodshed, and even marder.Of course, in employing the above argument, the forcible suppression of the procession is abandoned.But before any concession can be made on this ground, we should ask the following queries : What right have Irish Roman Catho- lies to demand that their feelinigy should be respected on this oecasion, or aby other, so far as Orangemen, in particular, or Protestants, in , are concerned ¢ Do they ever act, or refrain from acting, on any oocasion in which their is com- cerned, out of respect to a testant'sand much less so, beemase of an Orange- man's feelings Have they not Fenian processions\u2014 with in the very stroets of without er nob their Fete Dieu processions annually, and those conducted in the most publie noisy, and insulting manner before the Protestant community of our cities and towns ?They ay they have law or Treaty Rights for this; but this is both an empty and impudent sassumption, a fact I will by-and-by show, Then on no such consideration as the sbove, vix, deference to the feelings of Roman Catho- lice, can any plea be urged.But who are those that are seen prominent as actors on oceasions af rioti about processions, &c, &e 1 Who but those who can be looked at only as tools to those who keep their stand behind the scenes and use them at their will, Inflamed by priests and by politieal or cleri- oal agents, they go forward to do the work which others have prepared for them, and for which their instigators should be held mainly responsible.To prove that this statement is fully authorized, I have only to quote the words of the Rov.Father MacNamara, the founder of St John's Roman Catholic College in New York, uttered the 12th of last July.Ho says: \u201cIt is our training that has been wrong.Had we been bred as we should have been, we would have the feelings and the instincts of cultivated men, and not of the most ferocious animals.We were blinded by ignorant and interested teachers.There wcro behind us those whom we blindly obeyed as masters, and they drove us headlong to disgrace and fratricide.Be those political, or be they religious teachers, they merit from us but contempt and exeora- tion.I do not charge that religion, as such, made us the fiends we have proved ourselves ; but I do emphatically charge that in the garb of religion certain men have served the devil by secretly instilling bigotry, which is sure ever to reveal itself in atrocity.\u201d And was thero not sufficient seen and heard during, and sub- uent to, the disgraceful riots of last July in Montreal, to verify all that Father MacNamara states above ?We have read the reported utterances of Fathers Leclaire and Dowd, of St Patrick's church in Montreal, in reference to these riots ; and in the entire absence from either of them of a word of reprehension to the members of their church, who, to use Father MacNamara\u2019s words, had on the occasion acted as \u201cmost ferocions animals,\u201d while they delivered themselves in strongly condemuatory language of the men who had behaved in the most conciliatory and Christian manner, in the interests of peace, we see enough to open any person\u2019s eyes ns to those who should be held responsible for the riots of last July, and for any others which might befall Montreal on a subsequent occasion, And yet the men whom all discerning minds will hold responsible for the deplorable outbursts of passion and riot which culminated so fatally in murder, are those who claim the streets of our principal cities and towns for their Fete ieu procession, \u2014a not only without a tittle of right to justify it, but is actually against the law, in being held in the public streets of any town or city in the whole Dominion of Canada.Now these are facts to which I ask the attention of the reader.First, then, their right to such a procession as that of the Fete Dieu or, indeed, to any procession of a religious character whatsoever, (the right, such as it is) is founded on the treaty of Paris, bearing date 10th Feby., 1763.On thissubject\u2014 tho toleration of the Roman Catholic re- liglon,\u2014it reads : * His Britannic Majesty, on his side, agrees to grant the liberty of the Catholic religion to the inhabitants of Canada ; he will consequently give the most effective orders, that his new Roman Catholic subjects may profess their religion, according to the rights of the Roman Catholic church, as far as the laws of Great Britain at\" It will be seen , 80 \u201cfar as the laws of Great Britain permits,\u201d is the limit to be placed to these words of the treaty, the judgment, on this subject, by the Solicitor General \u2018at the time\u2014Wedder- urne\u2014afterwards Chancellor under the title of Lord Loughborough, will show what that limit meant, or how far it reached.He says: \u201cThe #th article of the Treaty of Paris grants the liberty of the Catholic religion to the inhabitants of Canada, and provides that His Britannic Majesty should give orders that the Catholic subjects may profess the worship of their religion according to the rites of the Romish church, as far as the laws of England will permit.This qualification renders tha article of so little effect from the severity with which (though seldom exerted) the laws of England are armed against the exercise of the Rômish religion, that the Canadians must depend more upon the benignity and the wiedom of your Majesty's Bou rh for the protection of their religious rights, than upon the pro- Visions of tho treaty, and it ma ° sid as an open question w legree of ihdulgence true policy will permit to the olic subject.\u201d On these words the Witness very properly remarks : liberty of exercising the worship was secured in wo far as the uws of England be con- perntitéed, but the laws of imposed the severdst penalties wpon the ez- ercise of the worship.The liberty of exercising the worship was therefore granted subject to the severest penalties.In other words, ne liberty of exercising the Oattrolie _reli was secared the treaty.The liberty which onan Cabos procession which is 1 \u201cThe|are 893 , of what is not allowed in the cities of France, in behalf of whose people remaining in Canada the treaty was made ?Assuredly not.Therefore, as no such ion as that of the Fete Dieu, is al- owed in any city of France, is it not the height of impudent audacity for Roman Catholic ecclesiastios to claim such a right in Canada Ÿ But, then, let us understand the trum intent of such proces- gious, as stated by the council of Trent, to say nothing #f the inconvenience and annoyance in taking ast absolute - sion, for the time, of the streets thoroughfares they pass through in making it, and then imagine, if you please, His Majesty George III being à parts to such.In the official report of the XIII session of the council of Trent, chap.V, we have à description of the warship and veneration that should be given to thin very holy sacrament.(Mark, a worship to the sacrament ! Idolatry most clearly, in all Protestants\u2019 eyes; and yet they claim authority from a treaty obtained from so Protestant a king as was George IIL, to flaunt this before Protestants in their very streets, and oft times to insult and assault them, if they do not join it!! What next, pray f) After describing the manner of the procession and the reasons for making it, with all possible pomp and display, we have the following as bearing upon its influence on heretics\u2014 Protestants, of course: \u201cAnd, besides, it is necessary that so groat a spectacle, of so t a joy of all the church, because of so glorious a victory of the truth over tho falsehood of heresy, should he displayed in their midst, when they would lose all courage and wither with vexation ; and, being touched with shame and confusion, come at last to recognise things in their true light.\u201d VERITAS.a] SUDDEN DEATH oF A MisER\u2014On Saturday evening, 20th Oct, an old man named Thomas Barrell, who resided at 11 Braithwaite street, Dublin, died from having denied himself the bare necessaries of life.Deceased lived alone and carried on some little business.On the evening previous to his death he was seen in his usual state of health, and his absence from business the following morning aroused the suspicions of his neighbors.A Mrs.O'Brien and her daughter searched the premises for him, and at last found him in a room that was locked, lying onaome old rags which he substituted for a bed.and in an insensible condition.Dr.Torney was communicated with, but on arriving .deceased was dead.The occurrence was duly reported to the police, and as there was à general belicf in the neighborhood that deceased was worth a good deal of money Mr Joseph M'C.Meadows, in company with some police authorities, made a search, and found at first a sum of £83 2x.OJd,, concealed in an old drawer.Subsequently they found a few bundles of paper, which were found to contain investments in railway and other shares to the extent of £17,735.Deceased had two sisters to whom it appears he never gave any assistance.The Duke of Westminster has beon lecturing on the liquor traffic.A few weeks o à bazaar was held in Manchester in Pa aid of the Church of England Temperance Society, and amongst the stallholders were the Duchess of Westminater, the Countess of Ellesmere, Lady Denman, the Countess of Wilton, Lady Bagot, Lady Eleanor Cecil Clifton, and the Mayoresa of Manchester.lt is very encouraging to observe that a good cause is promoted under such distinguished auspices.People like to see leaders of fashion leaders of virtuous reform; and reform from the drinking customs of our day is among the most important works in which any philanthropist, whether of high or low station, could be engaged.\u201cNo nobler work,\u201d said his Grace, \u201ccould be promoted than the work in which they were engaged-\u2014the crusade against that enormous evil which beset the country\u2014 the evil of intemperance.\u201d 1t has been estimated that the Indian famine will cost upwards of fifteen million sterling, without calculating the loas of revenue and other indirect results.It is well to remember, in considering the urgent necessity for remedial measures against future imines, that sixteen such calamities on a large scale have been recorded within & hundred years\u2014twelve in the present century.The general opinion prevalent is that the resources of the country, which in reality are inexhaustible, should be ppened out by large Government loans.present famine would not have occurred if the vast amount of rice in the different of India could have been carried to the famine districts The safest insurance inst famine would be an extension of the system of cheap railways, which would at the sane time subserve the law of supply and demand during the periods of local drought, and would , by opening up markets, develop and create the indigenous industries of India.One of the latest fancies of the Paris milliners is to trim hats

Democrats.Among those elected to the New York Senate is the ex-prize fighter Morrissey, That worthy makes his living now by keeping gambling-houses at Saratoga and New York, and is just as offensive a type of the well-dressed, pretentious evil-doer as could be picked up.Revolting as the idea must be to all respectable people of having such a man a member of the highest body of the Legislature, it is stated his opponent is a great deal worse.With an educated and moral body of electors, universal suffrage is very well, but when, as in New York city, there isa mass of criminal population, it is a menace to the well-being of the country at large.In Chicago, avowed Communists, from the same grade of people, polled 7,000 votes.In self-preservation, the Americans will, sooner or later, have to restrict the franchise in cities.Franklin county, as usual, went strongly Republican.Mr.Cantwell, the well-known lawyer of Malone, was nominated by the Democrats for county judge, and was defeated by over G00 of a majority.AN enquiry of an almost unprecedented nature is going on in Ireland.On the 8th September between sixty and seventy.soldiers of the 19th Hussars refused to attend parade at the Curragh camp, and marched off in a body.They were pursued by a number of mounted police, and, after threatening resistance, quietly re- \u2018turned to their quarters, The cause of this extraordinary conduct for British soldiers, was the tyranny of the colonel, who mercilessly harassed them by excessive duty.If the men can prove their charges against the colonel, they will likely be leniently dealt with.\u2014 THE reception accorded to the Oka deputation does not appear to us to be su highly satisfactory as the Government organs want to make it out to be.The Indians are in such a deplorable condition, that any change which will secure them the necessaries of life must commend itself to every humane mind, but we ought not to lose sight of the fact that they alone are not the only parties interested.There is a principle at stake in this controversy with the priests of the Seminary of vital Church of Rome in this Province be! taught a lesson that such acts as it has! been guilty of at Oka are not to be borne, To not only gendone those asts but to give the priedts all they have been seeking, will be intolerable.Mr Mills says the matter is ong to settled by the courts and not by legislation ; if s6, why not propose that the Government insti: tute the neceasary action and, until it is ae \u2014 Oun neighbors are justly excited over a bill now before Congress to maké' silver à legal tender.As U.8, silver, is worth only about, 98 cent, the effect will be that creditors will receive:7 per cent.less than their actual due: \"Phe bill is a dishonest ons, theréfbre, and, to foreign \u201ccreditors especially, a virtual act of repudiation.1% has passed the House, and is now before the Senate.Should it receive its sanction, it is to be hoped the President will vindicate the national Honor hy vetoing it.pre Tug Globe of the 18th says : In any case it would not be desirable that tho Oka Indians should continue where they are, even though their rights should be shown to be greater than they are thought to be by the gentlemen of the Seminary.* The land is not particularly good, the opportunities for hunting and fishing are all but gone, and the antagonisin between the Indians and their neighbors must always be disagreeable.It is a pity that the leading paper of Mountains comprises some of the best land in the Dominion, and, being mostly unoccupied, the bestowing of it upon the Indians would not conflict with the interests of anybody save the priests.The tribe are so far advanced in civilization that hunting and fishing are minor considerations to them, and their ardent desire is to get land and become farmers.As to antagonisin betweén them and their neighbors ; such does not exist to a degree that need to be taken into consideration for a moment.To wrench nearly 500 souls from the spot that has been their home and that of their fathers for nigh two centuries and to which they are attached with all the fervor that distinguishes primitive peoples, will be one of the cruelest acts known on this continent since the deportation of the Acadians.The act will be viewed by future generations as one of even greater flagrance, inasmuch as it was done by the Government to gratify the greed of a small corporation of priests and to conciliate a despotic Hierarchy.ELGIN SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS.AT a meeting held in the Town Hall on Monday, there were present the chairman and commissioners Gillies and Watson.It was moved by Coun Gillies, seconded be 14 mills on the dollar valuation, and that the school fees in each

they abandon, and leave the Seigniory in undisturbed possession of the Seminary.This would be a complete victory for the priests\u2014an endorsation of their cruel persecution of the tribe, a condoning of all their illegal acts, the investing them with what they have been intriguing for during the past forty years, the complete possession of a tract of country worth several million dollars.Flushed with such a triumph, the priesthood would grow more arrogant towards the minority, increase their pretensions, and proceed to greater extremities in their endeavors to force them to leave the Province and supplant them by Catholics.We want Mr Mackenzie and Mr Mills to understand that the rights not merely of\u2019 a simple tribe are involved in the settle.meñt of the Oka question, but those also of the minority in the Province.Let them, as we foar they contemplate doing, abandon the Seigniory to the Church of Rome, and the rights of the minority become à great deal

if the vote be not the expression of the voter's own opinian, but the expression of somebody else\u2019s opinion different from his.If, instead of its being his opinion, it be the opimion of his employer, his landlord, his creditor, or his minister, why, it is not his vote at all, it is somebody else's, and we have not submitted ourselves to, the free voice of our fellow-countrymen, but i to the voice of a very small minorit A who have determined What the voice of the larger number is to be.Thus the whole basis of our representative institutions would be destroyed if we permitted the opinions of our employers, greditors, landlords, or ministers to be forcibly substituted for our own.For this reason, besides the penalties which are enacted against the exercise of nndue influence, we have declared that the vote of any man so unduly influenced shall be null and void, and that elections carried by such undue influences shall be annulled.I cannot, if a landlord, say to my tenant, \u201cNow, tenant, I shall turn you out at the end of Jur term, if ou do not vote for my candidate ;\u201d tho\u2019 may have a legal right to turn him out at the end of the term, yet I cannot give intimation that I will exercise this right.If.I do, the vote is annulled as not free.I cannot, if a creditor, say to my debtor, \u201cI will exact that debt at once if \u2018you do not vote as I wish,\u201d though I may have a legal right to exact my debt.cannot, if an employer, say to my employee, \u201cYou shall not have my employment at the end of the current term unless you vote with me,\u201d though the law does not oblige me to retain him in my service.It has been found necessary in all these cases to prevent the relations to which I have referred to from being made the means of unduly influencing the vote, in order that this greas cardinal principle of our Constitution \u2014the freedom of each man to vote according to his own opinion\u2014may be preserved intact.True, the landlord, and the creditor, and the employer have all the right to speak and to persuade by arguments, and the confidence placed in them may be such that the voter's opinion may be changed ; but between the argument, the persuasion, the confidence which may conduce to a change in the mind and opinion of the voter, and that coercion which compels him to vote contrary to his mind, or the threat of some loss or penalty, there is a broad and palpable distinction, and that is the distinction which the lawlaysdown.Now if there be a form of religion under which the minister is supposed to have the power, by granting or refusing certain rites, or by making certain declarations to affect the state of the voter after death, is it not perfectly obvious that the threat of such results to the voter unless he votes in accordance with the opinion of the minister, might be infinitely more potent than any of the other threats which I have named\u2014the exaction of a debt, the ejection of a tenant, or the discharge of an employee ?And would not such a threat obnoxious to just the same objection ?I am far indeed from implying that politics should not be handled on Christian principles.Whatever difficulties and differences there may be as to Christian Dogma, there is fortunately very little difference concerning Christian morals.We are fortunatel united in this country in the theoretical recognition \u2014however far we may fail in the practical observance\u2014of the great doctrines of Christian morality which are handed down to us in the Gospels ; and I believe that it is on the basis.of those doctrines that the politics of the country should be carried on.Dim indeed would be our hopes, and dark our expectations for the future, if they did not embrace the coming of that glorious day when those prin.ciples shall truly, fully and practically.recognized\u2014if we did not look forward to the ent of the promises that \u201cthe kingdoms of this world shall become the kingdoms of the Lord ;\u201d and that \u201cnation shall not make war against nation, neither shall they learn war any more ;\u201d and if we did not look for the time when the human law of self-interest and hate shall be superseded by the Divine law of self- sacrifice and love.But while we hope and strive for the accomplishment of these things, we must not forget the lessons of the great Teacher and Exemplar.When interrogated upon secular thi when asked as to rendering the tribute to Cesar, He said, \u201cRender unto Cesar the things which are.Cæsar's, and to God the things which are God's\u201d He laid down the principle and He left the people\u2014the querists\u2014to make the application.So in when He was called upon to settle a dispute between two brothers about an inheritance, He said : \u201cMan, who made Me a judge or divider over you * Such was the view he took as to the duty of a minister, as to thé work of the pulpit; and while I do not hesitate to say

Mr article of whose creed should make him a slave, would be fit to control either his own destiny or that of free men.A slave himself, he would be but a proper instrument to make slaves of others.Such an article of religion would, in a word, be inconsistent with free institutions, because it would not permit that liberty of opinion in the individual which is their very base and cornerstone.But we are not confronted with that difficulty.The ublic and deliberate utterances of high Signitarics in more than one Province of Canada have shown that the assertion .iy unfounded, and have recognized the right of every elector to vote according to his conscience ; and the recent statement\u2014 communicated to the public through Lord Denbigh\u2014of the head of that Church shows that the United Kingdom, whers the law as to undue influence is precisely the same as ours, is perhaps the only country in Europe where the professors of that religion are free to practice it.If this be the case in the United Kingdom it is so here, and it is not true that there is any form of religion, the free and full exercise of which is impaired by the preservation of the t principle to which I have

deputation consisting of Hon.James Ferrier and Alderman Nelson, of Montreal, accompanied by Chief Joseph, this morning waited upon Hon, Mr Mills, Minister of the Interior, with reference to the Oka Indian troubles, and were courteously received.Hon Mr Ferrier assured Mr Mills that he had no desire or intention of making political capital out of the matter in any way, being only solicitous for the benefit of the Indians.The deputation in general terms suggested that the circumstances at Oka had so changed since the original grant was made to the gentlemen of the Seminary that the question was rather a subject for legislation than for the Courts, and that the Government ought to do as had been done in England with certain school cor- orations where the terms of the oundation were unsuited to the existing condition of things.The Minister in reply pointed out that the course suggested wasan impossibility; that matters relating to property and civil rights were under the control of the Government of the Province of Quebec; that it might be the Seminary had not discharged the duties imposed upon them by the terms of their deed, but these obligations were of such a nature that the Government of Canada could not take any cognizance of them.As guardians of the Indians, the Government were interested to the extent of protecting the Indian rights in the property, whatever they mi ht Be, and this he was very desirous of doing.But beyond that the Government could not go.What were the respective rights of the Indians and the minary was a question of a purely le character.There Was no doubt the Indians had resided a long time.upon these lands, had made certain improvements, and had acquired certain moral rights.But whether these rights were of a nature which could be taken cognizance of in a court of equity or of law was a question he was not disposed to discuss.The Government were sincerely desirous of obtaining a settlement of the matter by which the mutual vexations which now exist might be put an end to.It was highl desirable that the question should be eft in the hands of the Government entirely, to be \u2018dealt with as they might think best.In the present temper of the parties and of the local public it would seem almost impossible to secure any ad- made by a suit at law.If, however, the Indians were advised by those who were interesting themselves on their behalf to leave their case entirely to the Government, and to accept such a settlement as the Government thought proper to agree to on their behalf, he was of opinion that the difficulty might be disposed of.' The deputation expressed their concar- rence in this view, and promised to do what they could to induce the Indians to place themselvés in the hands of the Government, and pledge themselves to accept

Bethune, Q.C., of Toronto, an Ek ed for the prisoner, Mr Kerr conducting the prosecution.The evidence in the case may be briefly summarized.It appeared that one day in August the old man had some difficulty in getting his cows from the pasture, and he manifested considerable annoyance because his wife did not come out of the house to help to bring them in, when he thought she must have seen them pass down the road in front of the house.After finally securing them he came into the house, and finding his wife employed in knitting, he gave vent to a torrent of abuse, declaring that if she did not knitting for other Peel he would put er out of the way knitti en dine thei a girl nam hs , he caught ho the old woman the hand cont ining the knitting, and ed her out the house into the open

the body of Napoleon Parent, whose body was found floating in the Ottawa.From the evidence it appeared that on the 9th October deceased came from the opposite side of the river with grist for the mill at Thurso, and while waiting he went to Resicoe\u2019s tavern early and remained there some time, and got a few glasses of liquor, and when the proprietor was going out, about noon, he gave directions that no liquor should be given to deceased.The man hung about all day, and when Resicoe returned about half-past five, he wanted a supply of whiskey, and Resicoe filled a bottle for him and put it in his bun with the grist and left him.Shortly after, it was told him that the man was not able to work his boat across the river, and Resicoc sent his man to take him across the river or bring Fhim back.Richard Resicoe, a brother of the tavern-keeper, and Delphise Richer went in another boat to help him across.It was near dark, an altercation took place, and, as the men say, they left him in the bun, as he declined their aid, and they returned.On the 11th October, the boat, with the flour in it, was found in the middle of the Ottawa River, together with deceased's hat and a bottle of whiskey.The body was not found until the 23th, \u2018near the shore, on Buck Island, and was brought to Clarence shore, where the in- uest was held.When found the left side, of the neck was swollen larger than the right side, and, from the testimony of Dr Girvin, it was caused by a blow, which interrupted the flow of blood in the carotid arteries, causing congestion of the brain, and the blow was given durin life.The verdict of the jury was Foun Drowned, and that he came to his death from the influence , of liquor, the body showing marks of violence, but there was no evidence of how inflicted.The Premier was in Montreal last week and his presence there was taken occasion \u2018af by a number of his friends to give him & dinner, at which Mr Laframboise presided.In the course of
