All had been shot through the head behind the ear. It is supposed they had been chloroformed first, as no si^^s of a struggle appeared. Each victim was lying as if asleep and an odoi of chloroform was noticeable when tiie bodies were discovered. Mrs. White was also shot through the left arm. No clue has yet been discovered although tracks around the house indicated that guard was placed while the murder was being perpetrated. Crouch was a wealthy farmer living seven mileo southwest of Jaduon. and owner of an extensive sheep ranche in Texas. It is rumored he had just received about $50,000 from Texas in payment of sales made on the ran- che. Bankers here state no money was deposited by Crouch, and it is pre- sumed that the money was in Crouch's hands. Polly was stopping at Couch's, having just come from Texas with a large amount of money for the purpose of buying blooded stodc. The theory is that he (Poily) was followed from Texas by the murderer, or murderers, for the porpose of robbery. The house waft thoroughly ransacked and everything of value carried away. A young girl, an adopted daughter of the Whites, and a negro aged 18 sleeping upstairs, eay they heard no firing, although the negro says he heard a thumping noise about the middle ot the night. He thought it was caused by the fierce wind that was blowing. Mrs white was expected to become a mother shortly. The murder caused intense excitement. y^i'H'W^ Union Carriage Worlds.

Fapexs found on (me- of their bodies identify it as that of Capt. Wm. Bush of Samia. Jahxt- Drew was out loose from the steamer alone on a scow, which drifted asbore at Pike bay, and he is the only known- survivor. Another of the ba£es is- believed to be that of James Moore,, the engineer, of Thesselon. WiABTON Nov. 27. â€" John Drew, the ocly known surviTor of the steam- er Eclipse, states that he was asleep when cast adrift by the steamer. He awoke to find himself alone on Lake Huron and a fearful gale raging. He heard the. steamer's whistle several times and then neither saw nor heard any more. At daylight he saw land about a mile distant, and about 4 p. m. the barge went ashore at Little Pike bay, and he jumped asbora and started for Wiarton, 16 miles distant.. He does not know the names of the crew, but they numbered seven. Some fishermen were out in a boat at Pine Tree harbor and saw three bodies floating near the shore with life pre- servers on markpd "Str. Echpse," and what appeared to be the upper works of a steamer. On one of tiie bodies was a watch and $22.25. On another there was a watch and $22,, and on the third $8.92. Papers found identify one as Capt. Bush of the barge Etta, and J. Moore, engineer o£ of the Eclipse. Osprey. From a correspondent.

An empty cartridge box was found in his room Crouch was worth about two million doUaors. District Iastae«. Creemore is soon to be a Police Village. Several stores in Shelbume are be- ing lit with gas. W. H. Flesher, of Flesharton, has moved to Parry Sound. The Shelburne Free Press is mater- ially improved recently. Wm. Garbett, of Glenelg, sold his farm to Thos. Greenwood. Mr. Yost, of Bentinck, lost a fine bred cow worth $200, recently. H. J. Middaugh will likely bd a candidate for mayor of Durham. Samuel Bussel, of Proton, has sold his farm to A. E. Henderson, of To- ronto. Edward Williams, dI Proton, sold hii farm to David Cowan, Esq., of Leeds County. Alex. Cornett, Esq., oC Leeds Co., has purchased David Ferrier's fiarm in Proton, for $3,000. The grist mill at the Sauble, on the Garafraxa road, has been over- hauled and is again running. The Dundalk Herald of last week had a lengthy article on the position of township councillors, very sensible. The North Grey teachers have de- cided that there are serious defects in both the authorized series of readers.

Mr. Graham is recovering. Dundalk. F^om our oton correspondent. J. J. Middleton Sons have open- ed a branch store in Torento. Nomination day draws on the- names of new candidates for munici- pal offices are becoming numerous but nothing reliable can be ascertain- ed, further than reported previously. Oar polke trustee af e threatened witb a law suit £or aflowing an obr structioa tor ranatn on the {sidewalk .. in the shape of an enclosure around the front of a new buildiog. One of our villagers ran against it one dark night and received some severe bruis- es, and it is said, shook the building. Our merchants unanimously vote "business dull," indeed it could scar- cely be otherwise, .considering tke state of the roads. Apart from tbe influence of the season on them, they are out of repair, the council whose term of office is juat expiring have been rather remiss in their duty as road commissioners. It is to be hop- ed that their sucoessors will be more attentive to this matter. Your correspondent acquainted you of the return of Mr. Higgmbotham of Inistog, from Manitoba. He took up land while there, intending to re- move their in the opring. He lefc his son in perfect health, but had only been home a week or so, when he received a telegram informing him of his son's death in the hospital iu Winnipeg. The sad event has thrown a gloom ever all who knew the young man, as he was highly respected.
