Among tho cntlter event*, which tradit- tpn ha* i end a familiar to tiro rnsi-tents of tho American side of tint Niag.wa river, whs ilie mnssaero at the Devil t Hale, or, as it was sometimes Called tiro ’* Buttle of iho Bloody llun," from a small stream, on tho banks of watch the ^na«*acro took plac<’, and the current of which was said 11 have ran red with toe blood of lhe mnr Jmd. Tho preaant carriage-real, run­ ning from the Palis nnthwar l tiwanhLike Ontario, is tho satno lh«t in tho early history <>f the countly w&* known a- ihi- pnrtngo road. This passes alongtin* vurga of a wild nnd de<p gorge, or chrwnx. culled tiro Devil’s Hote, ia which the Bloo-ly Rin precipitate* its waters ;nnd from whor.ee, through subterranean passagi-s. they final ikstinrftion find their into tbo lower rapi Is of tbe rivcr-Tho Devil’sHole has alwavs been reckoned among tbo many objects of interest to tho tourist insearch of tho pioturesqno, along toe course of the the wonderful Niagara. This buttle took place iu tbe year 1719, just vac hund­red years ago. The English,having np»ne I ths lino of eommunication aloug tho shores of Ontarioand Champlain, extending westward as far as Markinae, had accumulated a largo amount of provisions aud ammunitions ofwar, which it was desirous to forward to them. Old Fort Schlosser, on tbe river above the Falls, was connected with FortNiagara by the portage raid, that ran, aa described, over tbe brink of the Devil’s Hole, and crossed the Bloody Bun at that point Large trains, containing the stores, pass­ ed between the two post*, from the latter of which they were to be traosported by barges to tbeir distant destination alongthe upper lakes. These trains were con­ veyed by parlies of regulars and militia. For some days this woik was prosecutedunmolested by th - enetnv, who was oc- cnpviug several points on the western aide of the river. But when informed by theirIndian spica, of what was going on, the French oomraand'r ordered an overwhelm- fog party of Iroqnoi* ta lay wait for "the trains end destroy tltem, offering the usual bounty for lhe English scalps tfo y might bring back with tlieng. In carrying nut this moody intention the Indians determined to lay in ambush for the escort, rather than risk a fair, open fight. They dlrorefore selected this p»etj- liar spot as the most suitable for a success­ fol attack. And wo must give the savage* credit for a kind of fotuitve good judgment in Alwaye availtug thensrlvea of the very paints which lhe most eeeompll»h-'d en- g neer would eel. st for any important milt-" tary mvitjtovre. Ijiaed al mg thi entire untot tha portagi roal—uofne sixteen miles— there was no point so favorable for their murderous pnrp<.»e aa thia.

A couple of steamrrs an the way. up passed and ta- lanted him, the passengers crowding totho stda to watch him as he went by. At Cullom's bar the steamer Harry Higbee,tied up at the landing, was block with a jiwarm of people who enthusiastically cheered tbe swimmer. At Delhi theschool children were turned out as soon as th* captain hove in sight, ami the little ones went fairly wild with delight wlwn they saw him, and when in response to their hearty ciioers he cut several capersfor their amusement. At lhe month of the Big Miami a delega­ tion from Indiana, on the small ateamsr Wnt.-r Willi, which had been charted by Jim Van-th-’in and Geo. Roberts, of Law- renceburg, anJ had cjmo up from that plice. *a-bh in waiting to welcome tho daring voyager to Indiana. As tho captain earns in view he was greeted with a salute from tho steamer, and in answer sonnded a few notes on his bnsle. Just at this point the river takes n bond in among the Kentucky hills, anda remarkably pleasing echo followed thewinding of tiia captain’s horn, the notes seeming to din away in the distance andbe caught up in turn by each of the hills, until at least a dozen horns seemed to be the flrat .moment of the attack, the little drnmmcr'had retained the alrongleathern belt by which it was auapended from Lift wijjat, and in bis deaoeut be had bean canght by it upjn the liatb of a pro-jectine’aodur, At flrat the lad was considerably injured and stqnail by tly» fall, but by the timetheslitKfow of evening had guibered over tlio rivSr, qud llio savages had finishedtheir bloody work, he succeeded in clam- hcring to tha bottom of tho cl iff. where, along the water’s edge ho was enabled, byswimming in som x places, and scrambling tbrotigli briars amt over broken rocks inothers, to reach the banc of the mountain, where now stands the village of Lowfoton'.jj.------- , ynrt ing upon their crowded rank* a fierce dis­ charge of rifles, filled the air with theirterriffio warwhoops. Taken altogether by surprise, tho English and Americana were thrown into confusion, and Unable to de­ fend themselves, and bj closely were they compressed together within tho narrow de­file, that they were complotly at the mercy of their assailants, and panic otriken. Those in the rear, who escaped the fear­ ful charge, attempted to retreat by tlio way they had come ; but tbeir savage assailantswho had now occupied tho crest nf the northern hill, intercepted their flight. They were ent down, and scalped, while yet invain bogging for quarter. Those in front, fared no better, for the Indians, yellingand howling like pan there' luxuriated in murder, and gave quarter to none. They murdered the tinresistina drivers ; anti inmany instances tore their bleeding scalps from their heads, while they wore dragging them from their wagons. M*nv of tlio soldiers ware kilted by tho first dischorse, and some who escaped(tenth by the rifle fell by the knife and toma­ hawk nf the ferocious savages. Others, to escape death «t llie bands of the merciless fiends, sought it rather amidst lhe thunder­ ing water* btlow, and leaped from the topof tbo cliff to the river, three hundred feat beneath. The oxen and beeves, driven frantic bv tho mingled yells of tho Indians, the scream* of the dying, and the rapid firing of rifles, together with tbo madden­ ing pain of their own wounds, <ltt*hodover the rocky verge of tho iiavil’s Hole, Into its dark, viewless bottom,dragging tho wagons mid their valuable freights afterthem, There they fell in onn vast hoop,, a broken, mangled nnd mutilated mass, where to this day tbeir broken and decayed portions are picked up by the curious visi­ tor. Tho horrors of that frightful mnssnero cannot be described ; nor cau the most vivid inroginntion conceive but a faint pic­ ture of i’. The rauid and sharp report of the Indian riflos, the shriek* wounded and dyiug.the bellowing of the frightened cattle,and tho ringing whoop of tbo exultant savage*, drnnk with hnman blood, aud crazy with tlio fiarco excitonjant, contrast­ed strangely wi'h tbo deep monotonous nnd Millen roar <>f the majestic old river, ns it leaped ov. r its mighty cataract, audthnnd-red, ali-ng in its headlong course be­ neath tho bloo ly sc me us if in mockery of the strife and sufferings of dying men np >n it* hanks. Tho little glon hetwoen tho hills wascovered with tho mangled corpses of tho unfortunate party ; mid the brook that meanders though it. was turbid with their blood. Since that fearful baptism it has ever been c.JIed the” Bloody Run.” But two persons of that party of one hun­dred and fifty left tho aceno nlivo.. They were brothers nam-d Stedman. One, tbo eldest, being mounted, attempted to makehis escape by the rear, l>nt ns ho was dart­ ing oyer the top of the bill, ho was arrested by a crow 1 of savages who received him with a volley of riflo shots, some of which took effect in bi* horse; but not, however, disabling him- Tiro animal, mad withpain, dashed down tho hill again, carrying his rider inti the midst of the Ravages, whowere still busy in their mnnteron* oper­ ation of scalping the teamsters. Leaping over several of them, as they were pentt<» tlroir bloody work, the horse struck into lhe liltl« atremn.antj directed his course up its channel. Ila had, however, only reach­ ed tbo timber when ho was nguiu headed off by a. number of Indians, who attempt­ ed to bring liim down with their rifles. Ona stalwart savage had sprung from the thick birobns, and grn’Ded tho xein ofthe frightened animal ; but Stedman, with ran oh presence of mind, ent the bridle jnst as tho warrior was levelling hjs hatchet fora fatal blow, nnd sped nway over the ridge amidst n shower of leaden balls. Tlio animal was entirely beyond thocontrol of his rider, aud flying at the top of his speed, soon bore him beyond thescent, ot the massacre. After a ride of iilrout four mites, Stedman reached Gill Crook, near Fort Schlosser, where be sne- ceded in nrrestiug the flight of his trembl­ ing horse. Tho heirs of this raw, mnny years after,attempted to establish a claim to the tract of land which be encompassed in his rer treat, bounded west on the banks of theNiagara river, upon tho plea that tho In­ dians had given him the land after tho war, ns a “ medicine" for tbo lo»s of hi* wngous end team* at the Devil's Hile. But ns they could show no confirmation of the gift, the claim was set aside by the court*.Tho brother ®f Stedman, a lad of fifteen or sixteen, who was a drummer, had se­creted liim*e]f in the thioketsnt tlje foot of thesouthern bill,being in the advanc'*. Here be remained a witness of the bloody aceno before him, and would no doubt have remained undiscovered, bnt for the exciting situation of Iris brother, as heattempted to pass up stream. John for­ got Ins own danger in that of his elder brother, and before ha was aware of what be was doing, ruih«J from bis eoneealm*nt and having no other weapons nt hand, gathered an armful of cobble stones from th* Run, and poun d them into the midst of his brother's assailants. It it said that the gallant yonth actually sjitterod the brain a of three er four of the savage*, before his brother sncceJdad in making hie esoope, The Indiana, balled in. their attempt to dismmtet the elder, and furious witn the aight of their dying comrades now tnrr-• 1 yelling upon the yonngeit brother. John, seeing no possible ch ino* nf esoap» from the exeilad «avnges,determineil to de. fend Irimulf to tbe last The gallant Utfle fellow fought with desperation, and the rifles of the Indian* being empty, they eeuld only roach him with th< ir knives. But wh*re the dntmm-r boy hod takenhis stand, behind a dump of cedar bushes, the ground was strewn with round pe* btes, which bo rat<fod about thrir rare likegrape shot*.

BOTTOM EN VOYAGE. him- HIS TRIP DCrtFN THE OHIO PHOM C7NCTNATI—fNOIDENTS OP THS VOTAOE—HtS SKILL WITH THE PADDLE--THE BUBAL CROWDS. Cindnul Xn-filrw, 19 h. Capt. Boyton, the great swimmer, left Cinciuatt yesterday at high noon on his downward voyage to tho Gqlf, while five thousand admiring citizens stood by and wished him bon voyage. Tbe start was as fine a one ns could be desired. Tho swimmer—who bad been driven, dressed in bi* suit, from the Burnet House to the teyee—-waded into the river at tbe toot ofVino street, just below tbo suspension bridge, amid the cheers of tbe crowd that lined the lecyes and crowded on tho bridgeand at tlio windows nil along tbo landing. He Daddlod ont into mid-stream and went np the riv?r until under the bridge, where he stood up in tho water and waved a good-by to tho Paris of America. Then, turning gracefully over, ha started <>ff at arepaid pace down tbe enrrout, raising mid falling with every swell from passing ston- tnera, his paddle dipping alternately nt each side us rapidly an i uniformly ns if werked by a machine. High over all tho noon­day sun shone down from n cloudless sky. making the b«soin of tho rapidly flowing river shine like a burnished mirror. Tothe crowds on the bridge nnd shores ot the river tlio swimmir urow m<>ro nnd more in­ distinct, until fiun'dy bo appeared but a* abluck speck floating on tho surface of tho strentu, although for sotm time after ho had disappeared from view, except whenlifted on a larger wave than usual, tho dip uf his glistening p.vldlo was p'ainly visible, moving like clock-work. THE EXCURSION BOAT which enrriod the captain's colors, tho life­ saving flag presented him in France, fol­lowed in Iris wake down stream, now and ngirin apparently close enough to spenk to him. On heard n *' log ” of lhe voyagewas kept for tiro distance the newpnper mon nccompnined tho swimmer. Steep'd in thi* craft, a geod view of the swimmernnd his made of travelling could bo had, and the eye never seemed to tire in gazing on him an<l watching tiro automatic play of Iris paddle nnd the apparent easo nnd bonyaney with which ho rod* the waters. But n small portion of his body appeared to bo enbmerged, nnd tbe nir pillow under Iris head kept tho latter thownupward nnd forward so tfi ho c >nld see wh thnr ho was going and shupo his course. HOW HR MOVES. For tho information ofthose who have not seen tbe swimmer, it may ho statedthat be lies on his back, nnd moves feet forward, hjs pitdte being worked across the lower portion <>f hi* stomach. In using itbe grasps it with the backs of his hands upward, find, lowering one hand dips one blade of the paddle into the water, a* hedoes so drawing it back townrd hi* should ‘ flers, aud at the same pushing the other band forward, to din tho opposite blade ns he takes tho other from the water. From long practice it> using this paddle,tbe captain line acquired n psauliar dexter­ ity of movement, to which no written dee- cripton can do justice. He keeps it revol­ving on his stomach as on n pivot, dipping it so quickly ttud so regularly that it al­ most seem*, as if h« used tWo paddles. His jrate of speed in the water varies with the surrounding circumstances, snob as currents, head winds, elo. Yesterday, in spite of tho head wjoil, be averaged, for .five hours, in which he was aco nnpanied by th*rapresutatives of the press, five and a half miles an hour. This included several stoppages, when be stood ijp in mid­stream to respond to tl;e applause nf tbe people on shore, or lay and ohntled with the excnreion party *> which, if taken intotbe calculation of speed, woul.l make it fully six miles an lioqr. . AH along troth shores, wherever a bnm- tet, vidage or towu was pns»ed, crowds were gathered, tho populace of m >st of tho places seemingly having turned out tocatah a glimpee of the daring navigator. Numberless skiffs put out from the shores, loAilnd with cerion* natives, who would pull up until they lay alongrile ti)o swim­mer, when they would gaze opBU-tpoutbed for i» tew minutes at his every movement,and then reluctantly pull ashore again. Many boats followed nr k»pt alongside the swimmer for Huies down the river. SOME QUESTIONS. Mot the least amusiug among tho inci* deula ot tbe trip we/e the question* asked by sumo of tlieae people.

Did you never notice that, if yon open a r.-iilr.iud-guide and begin to look for some particular train, some'officious man in the crowd will spring up and lay his great thumb rigl.t over the column your train is in. and try to find you the night express onlhe Cliiiugo, Burlington 4 Quincy, by rouging qp and down a column headed “ A'lcommodation,” on the Illinois Centralside of the p>ige ? A nd yon can’t blnff him off, either. A few days ago, a quiet-look­ ing man on th* Wabash Railway calledthe train-boy and asked him for a railway guide for a moment. Then lie began toexamine the columns, and a busy-looking man behind him leaned over the seat and said•• What train arc yon looking for ? Whore de yon want to go ? I can find it for yon ;f yon are not much accustomed tothis sort of thing.” The stranger thanked him, and said be was looking up some of lhe connections ofthe Wabash Railway, and ho guessed be could find what he wanted. Tho busy man imrqediaiely took hold ofthe guide and pulled it awny from him. ” YnuHl never find it looking that way."he said. •* Now tell me where yon want to go ; I know nearly all the connections of this road ; I travel over this line twice every sixty days.” After avuia effort to get his guide-book, the stranger rolnetamly yielded, and thebusy man looked down the column of ” Ticket-fares" and ascertained that the stronger's train reached Danville at 14-76,and then ho looked down the column of dfaLm'SM and discovered that the connect­ing train for Vincennes left at 6,684. Than ho hnnded the guide back to the stranger, and L-aped back in his seat with the air ofu man, a Christian, unselfish man, who had, at some trouble to himself, of coarse, set a bewildered wayfarer right. The stranger thanked him quietly and with every appearance of profound gratitude.“ Oil I" tho man said lottily, “ that’s all right; these railway-guides are all Greek to people who ain’t accustomed to railroad­ ing." By and by the stranger went into the other coach, and the bus? man noticing the respectful demeanor of the brakemen as he pissed out, called to tho employee and asked“ Who is that man ?” H. C.

Yes, there ifiay be some,— a few threr |«er-ceut-a-inonth men,—and if the tariff will bring a portion of the revenue out of them, it is a thing that was never accomplished successfully be­ fore.

As a result of ibe Natinnal Policy, tb« Koaka Manufacturing Company bave derided to forthwith commence the manufac tore of thia article on an extensive scale.Tbe stock of tha Company has all been sub­ scribed, and the charter arrived a few days ago. The factory which they purposeereciiog will be situated on Wilson Avenue, and it is calculated at the onlset to give employment co from 20 to 80 men. Mr.H. W.

Mr. Booth bas implicit faith in the new tariff. Mr. John Oliver, pump maker, St. Catharine street, St. Thoman, made a ship­ meat of his manufactures to Oshawa theother day. This gentleman purposes at an early day enlarging his premises andentering into the manufacture of rakes.and other agricultural implements on an exten­ sive scale.

The , Dominion, within a few short montbe’, will Iecho, from Capo Breton te Vauoouver.with ' tho moans of its famine atricken inhabi- 1 tanta. The screams of the Yankee eagle and the roar of tbe British lion are about to sound our national requiem. Dire will be the calauiitiM which the Domiqjon must endure, as the penalty of rejecting the beat and moot capable government which this or any other country ever saw. On tha day that Parliament, in its blindness, finally passes Mr. Tilley's tariff, the sun of free- trade prosperity will cease to eb inn north of the border. Vegetation wifi eease. Grain will refuse to spront. Potatoes andturnips will bo more difficult to cultivate than dates and orangea now are. Thobaneful blight of Protection will attackevery living thing, and tho blackness of desolation will cover Ibe land. The waterwill dry up in tbe streams. Steamboats wiil no longer ply in onr waters. The rails of our railways will be sold to paytlie scaaional indemnity of tho members. Tbe trees will ditapDear from the face ofthe laud, and John Bright and David A. Wells will be found on the last stump, ex­ plaining tlie folly of any people ontside ofManchester or Birminguam attempting any pursuits other than agriculture, and deehtming on tbe btautiw of jng-hardledfree Trade, and the damnable heresy of protection. The daily Globe will only beissued semi-occasionally, the Honorable George Brown will retire to live as a her­ mit in the solitudes of Bow Park, and the country, for it sins, will bo delivered overto the tender mercies of the Mail and John A. Onr lumber interests will be among the things of the past. Ourmines will become so unworkable and na- ‘ profitable, that even Lucius Seth Hunting- > ton will be unable to sell shares at a profit (in Scotland. Onr cattle trade will dwindle away, for there will be no grass exceptsuch os will =over onr market squares and the-streets of our cities. Tbe Catholic and > Protestant horses will die ofpluro no-wliat-you-mav-call-it, and St. Patrick’s day and tlie glorious twelfth will be tnrned into the fourth ef July, on which the peoplewill be condemned to listen to interminable addrt sses from David Mills and Christop- ' her Findlay Fraser.

"Where now stand the cities of Montreal, Halifax,Quebec, Toronto, Hogs' Hollow, Hamilton, Guelph, Coboconk.

Tie evidence of Dr. i McCausland, who was present during the igreater part of tho po*t mortem, of Dr. ■ Board, Dr. Swan, and others, pointe non- 1closively to death from natural eaneea. | Proper cars was not taken in the poet |mortem m to taking notes of th* ear- < rotuxling, and preserving tho bottle said <by Mr. Gayfer to contain toietaro of ]aconite. The evidence of the bpy, c( Mro. (McCabe having gone out on a cold win­ter evening without any ovenbore m i only a shawl tbrown over her bead,pointed to her having caught a a<v re cold rMalling in congestion of tha lungs, which will produce death in a very shorttime and have appearances such as these found in tbia body. Dr. Richardson sayshe never saw a body opened as this one w m; that it is very nnusual. Bloodshould bave been in tho heart in case of aconitine poreouiug. Tbe ratting of the vein would not empty tbe heart. He thenreferred to tbe evidence as to tbe character of McCabe. He is not shown te have'been a man of vicious temperament, or to have quarrelled with his wife about tbe property. Nettling more natural than thatthey should bave slight differeneea of opinion. Very little weight should begiven to (ha evidence of the conversations. McCabe was shown to be a man addicted to joking and talking more than wasproper without meaning anything. A great deal of noo-professonnl evidence had been given of the health of the deceased.It bad been shown that she was subject to frequent fainting fits, and was generally ina very poor condition of health. Tho fact of there being no women in was caefly ac­ counted for. There was no necessity.■ They are always advising their own nos- ; trams; and, moreover, she was a woman t not ranch liked by her neighbors. Dr.McCansland had asked why nonn of the , neighbors were called in, and McCabe said. bo bad wanted to, but she would not hava i them. Tua evidence went to show that he' was a moat kind and sympathetic husband, . and always wanted to get a girl, but she refused to have one. Mr. Fletcher eon- eluded his address with a most earnest’ and eloquent appeal on behalf of the s prisoners. Tbe speech lasted two hours< and a half. I Mr. Noseis followed Mr. Fletcher on I behalf of Dr. Bowers. His a.ldreas wasmarked by groat feeling and eloquence. j He nectasaiily went over a good deal of j the ground covered by Mr. Fletcher, andalso bronsthtont some fresh and important 8 facts more particularly applicable to Irisowu client. He reviewed at some length themedical evidence, which he said pointed plainly to death from natural causes.Moreover, even though they might pre­sume n motive on the part of MrCabe, there was not the least tittle of evidence toindicate any motivo on tlie part of bis client. He contended that there bad been no proof of any crime. Bnt, assumingthat there was, are tho prisoners the crim­ inals ? Tbe evidence of Mr. and Mrs. Stone wits plainly very greatly prejudiced.They felt somewhat incensed at Dr. Bow­ ers, and it is not at all unnatural thatthey should feel so, when we consider thepeculiar circumstances under which they were placed. There was evidence that Dr.Bowers gave deceased eynconidine, that she took one doco and threw it trp ; end traces of synconidine wore found in thestomach by 1’rof. Croft. Tins was the only medicine given by Dr. Bowers that was proved to have been taken by deceased.The first time Dr. Bowers was called on to attend Mrs. McCabe was at twelve p.m. of the 18th December, and it was on themorning of that day had purchased the atropia and ordered tho aconitine. Mr.Norris* address, of which tho nlwve is but a very brief synopsis, lasted about an hour and a half. THE McCABE POISONING CASE. At first glance some of these remarkable statements may appear opaque and con­ tradictory te each other, but, of eourse, that cannot be, for the Grit press are all honest, unanimous ia their c pinions on this important question, and thoroughly understand political economy.

SDDKF88 OF COUNSEL FOK TOE DKFKNSX. Mr. Fletchek arose and addreasel the jury on behalf of tbe prisoner McCabe. Ha referred to tha feeling of trepidationwbieh came upon hyn in rising to address a jury in a case where the issue at stake wa* the life of fellow-men. He than wenton to speak of the value given by tha law to circumstantial evidence, wbieh was all that had been brought against tbe prison-era in tills case. A man's character is ua- aellied in the era of the law until some crime is proved against him, and unlessthe case ia clearly snd ii>di»putibly proved against tire prisoners they should have that due, that requittal which tire law requires.Nothing is saore easilv made than charges of this kind by suspicious persons.

He wentinto tlie evidence clearly and fully, point­ ing ont in what respects it was inconsis­ tent with the innocence of tl.a piMonevsand indicative of tbeir guilt. More re­ liance should be placed on the evidence ofmedical men who based their conclusions on an acntu il knowledge of tbe eoaditions of the body than on llwse. no motter boweminent, who could form an optnion merely from the description given there. Tbe medical witnesses for tbe Crown wereall men of bish standing in tbe profession, and- they bad given lh« ir evidence tn n straightforward, clear, nnbiassad manner.They all a^rej that the poit mortem con­ ditions in this case were those which wouldbe produced from the taking of acconitiue.It is true no traces of aconitine were found in tbe stomach, but then all agree that there are no definite chemical testa bywhich tbe presence of aconitine can cer­ tainly be discovered. It has been provedthat McCabe was seen several times before tlie 18th December to go into Dr. Bowers office. On tbe morning of the 18th Dec.Dr. Bowers bonght some atropia, and gav<{ an order for five grains of aconitine to be sent for immediately. On the nightof the 18th McCabe went to l>r. Bowers te gel him to attend to his wife, although she requested him to go for Dr. Springer.Peter Cuthbert said she toll him Dr. Bow- era gave her some medicine whieh pro-doced a tinghng sensation of the throat, and drynes<. These have been shown to be the results ef atropia. On Friday morn­ ing ba got tha aconitine. The night, orthe morning of Saturday, the 21st,McCabe went for Dr. McCausland, who swearsthat when be arrived at McCabe’s he found no one there bnt Dr. Dowera. and ba sent at once for some women. This fact is not denied- While McCabe was gone, Dr.Bowsrs went to a table, took a will ont of a drawer, and requested Mrs. McCabe toacknowledge the signature, himself and Dr. McCausland being witnesses. Dr. McCausland will not aeear whether she lifted her hand heroelf, or whether Dr-Bowere raised it for her.

A Maucioub Hoax.—Ou Friday last some thoughtless scoundrel sent out from Woodstock a report that Mr. JohnCamcron, Governor of the county jail had been per* etnptorily dismissed, which was publishedin several of the morning papers of SatuN day.

Be Ready. — Wo trust the Board of Works, the Street Committee, or whoever the duty may devolve upon, to be in readi­ ness, as soon os the frost is ont of the ground, to ck-un up the principal streets. They are in a fearful state of dirtiness, and in order that good health should bo pre­served it will be necessary to make a thor­ ough job of it. There is a greater accumu­ lation of filth upon them than we haveever noticed before, and it is of the greatest importance that the woik should bo dunepromptly and thoroughly. Woonsrocs Church Troubl e. — A church court of the Methodist church, con­ sisting of Rev. Mr. Uyckman, President of the London Conference, R?v. Messrs. Grnv, John Williams, G. R. Sanderson, J. Preston, Dr. Rice, and about fifteen others, met at Woodstoric yesterdny, andbegan an invcstigaiion into tho conduct of tho Itov. W. It. Parker, pastor of the Rid­ del street Methodist church.

Ellc*dau, Christchurch, New Zealand • Dear Sir,—In 1862, I with two friendswas among the Kakanui ranges in Otago, onan exploring expedition. We had been tra­velling for atartt ten or eleven days, and werefeeling confident we were the first humanbeings that bad ever placed foot on that ground—the wildness of the place would al­most deter people from going—but it soon be­came evident we were not the first, as I willprove. I had proposed a rest and a pipe, towhich my friends agtwL After being seatedfor a short time charting awl smoking my ayecaught eight of something white lying in thehollow nf a atone j of course my curiosity wasaroused, and I went to see what it could be ;to my surprise it was one of Holloway’s small pote, which had contained Ointment, Youmay imagine oar astonishment and disgust atfinding we were not the first who bad beenthere, more e*]>eciallY as we could find notraces of a camp, and had not seen any for It is nol oltcn wo are called on to record the death of a man more sincerely esteem­ ed by bis fellow citizens, or whose demise is more sincerely regretted than that of Mr. James McDonald. Coming to Luis place about forty-five years ago, when it was almost a wilderness, and living here continuously since, engaged in business most of the time, very lew people who have over cotno here, or lived in the vicinity but have enjoyed his acquaintance and prized it ; and consequently when it was learned that bo had departed this life and was to be buried on Sunday, it was reasonable to expect that a large concourse of his old friends would pay their last tribute to bis memory by being iu attendance at the burial, and the expectations were fully realized, the procession from his late resi­ dence to the cemetery being one of the largest ever seea in (own. Mr. McDonald was a son of Cnpt. John McDonald, of Paisley, Scotland, and was born in that city on tho 20th of Juno, 1811. Tho fam­ ily emigrated to Canada in 1812, arriving at Quebec 16lh of May. Capt. McDonald, shortly after arrival, wont to the Slates in business, where he was taken prisoner and kept during tho war, after which bo re­ turned to Canada, and with his family settled in Zorra, a few miles north of In­ gersoll. James came to Ingersoll in 1834, and worked at different things nntil 1843, when he started a grocery, which he con­ tinued to carry on alone till 1845, when his brothers John nod Alexander (the latter of whom went to California a few years after, and died while returning) joined in the business. Then, in 1852, Robert also went into the parnership, and the three, brothers continued together doing an extensive business for several years. A dissolution took place about I860, since which time each has been doing business iu his own interests. Mr. McDonald was married twice, his first wife being a eisterof the late Seneca Lewis, of West Oxford, and the second, Mrs.Griffey, mother of Mr. W. W. Griffey of this town. The first wifedied about tho year 1848; the second onAugnst 28ih, 1860. He leaves three daughters by the second wife who are nowexperiencing a very sad hour, but who have the meat sincere sympathy of all in their almost unbearable bereavement. Besideshis own immediate family ha leaves two brother*, John and Robert, of this town ; three sisters, Mrs. Eastwood, Mrs. G. G.Stimson, of Ingersoll, and Mrs. H. P.Brown, of Woodatook, and a Urge number of other relatives.Mr. McDonald had several times filled the positions of Counotllor and Deputy- Reeve with credit, aed was always verypopular with all cIassm of our people. He wm the kindest of fatbenh the ruost faith­ ful of friends, liberal and boswnrable ineverything, and deearrodly beloved by thewhole community. Tbe Oddfellows, of which society he had boon a highly prisedmember for twenty-two years, attended tbe funeral in a body to pay their lot roe-peeta to their departed brother. SOHO CHEESE FACTORY. A meeting of tho directors and patrons of the Soho Cheese Factory, managed by D.

Hie ' soloenjoyment waa tho attending of fanorals. When he beard of the death of any great man, through th" channel of the papers,ha immediately made tbo circuit of the Whole town to know who had the job, andthan proceeded to accompany it. Ho has often been to York and the confines ofScotland to be present at tbo interment of a noblemen or gentleman, and in (his re­ spect be was in no way biased by panyor religion; whether a Roman Calhono or a Protestant, a Jew oB.» Presbyterian;they eqnally commanded his respect anddetention, provided tho funeral was mag­ nificent. His highest ambition waa to obtain one of the little escutcheons, which ho considered as so many trophies of braglory, and being known to most of the undertakers, and their constant companionin their peregrinations, they seldom or ever refused him this request. ' Being intirely inattoutivo to, his own 'affairsbo found himself in a state of distress when ho did not expect it; yet, though reducedto almost the went of the common^ neces­ saries of life, his passion for dealn-hunt-ing still prevailed, and when ho could not ride he walked on foot. But whenever thejourney was of any length he bribed the hearse-driver to let him bo.an inside pas- singer with the corpse. - In this doleful'state ho travelled more than orco ; but un­ fortunately fell a martyr at length to hisstrange whim.
