Failures of Justice- '3 Not a few of our contemporaries have bewailed what they call‘ the “failure of justice ” in the lliddulph trials; but tltcy all appear to forget the failure of justice that preceded and led to the tragedy, l which was not an act of individual ven- geance or a crime committed for gain, but the only means by which the members of an oppressed communityâ€"who bad appealed in vain for help from the lawâ€"could prevent the continuance of the intolerable evils under which they had suffered for years. It is somewhat singular that. public opinion and the opinion of (or, at any rate expressed by) the press should differ so ' widely as they did with reference to the slaughter of the Donnellys; but the so- lution is no deubt to be found in the want of caudour in the one and the excess ofit in the other. It is hardly to be supposed that I the leader writers on all the journals, from the Globe and Mail downwards, hold dif- fbrent views from the rest of the com- munity on this particular subject; yet, impelled by a. feeling that it was their duty ' to uphold the majesty of the law and dc- preeatc acts of violence, they refused to I take into consideration the very exceptional circumstances of the Riddulpb case, and denounced the "murderers" with all their power; while the public. not feeling bound to disguise their real sentiments, gave ex- pression to them very freely and declared. firstly, that the Donnellys deserved their fate, and, secondly, that the parties accused ofputtingtliem to death would never be found guilty. no matter how strong the proof against them. That their lccond assererntion was correct there can now be littlo doubt ; for though the released Bid- dulph prisoners are still liable to be brought to trial, their prosecution has been virtual- lv abamloued,nnd as it is not likely that after the lapse ofa year any fresh evidence will be forthcoming, they will probably never again be called upon to appear in a court of justice. It was not, however in order to palliatc the slaughter of the Don- nelly family or to rejoice over the escape of the accused that we recur to the painful subject; but to deplore the lax adminis- traticn of the law which led to the tragedy, in the statute :pplying to Such cases. Th2 feeble enforcement of the law will be at once ad- v ‘nittrd by all who have lived a few years , in Canada. especially in the rural districts. where numerous crimes. some of them of the deepest dye. go unpunishcd because of the supineuess and inditferenco of the of- - ticials whose duty it is to procure the arrest To this. no doubt, is partly to be attributed the impunity enjoy- ed for so many yearn by the notorious Dottnellys. of whom everybody was afraid: é but it was chiefly owing to the impossibility " of procuring thcevidenceaguiust them that the law requires. A moment's thought will convince anyone of the ditlicult position in which the unfortunate people of biddulph were placed ; for, though half a dozen men may be hanged for the murder of one if they were all present thereat, a member at a revengefitl family may walk over to a neighbour‘s barn. set fire to it and walk back, and will escape unpunishcd unless; ‘ the owner of the barn, who may have seen the act committed. can prove which of the family was the perpetrator. A Biddulphcr might go to the Law and say “ my property ‘ has been burned." or, “ my threshing ma- chine has been broken, " or, -‘ my hone has been barbs-troust mutilated, and I am " morally certain that one of the Donnellyu , did it: but I can't prove which of them." Law would reply; - I'm sorry for you. my man: but moral certainty won‘t do for me. . f 33,; can utttch member of the 1.Ai.:‘..: 3...

When people in civilized society relinquish the strong arm ofthe law ; and the moment this duty is neglected, no matter from what cause, the people will infallibly resume the right which they had conditionally relinquished, and, as the saying is, " take the law into their own hands." So de- plorable a state of affairs as existed in Bid- dulpb is fortunately very exceptional : but, should similar outrages be commenced in any other locality, neither time nor pains our money ought to be spared by the lamb. critics to detect the guilty parties, and shoulda link or two be wanting in the chain of evidence required by the law, we think the “ moral certainty " of the respec- table portion ofthe community ought to he allowed to supply them. One Biddulpb tragedy is enough in the history of Canada, and it is worth while to strain a point to prevent the occurrence of another. The Bible. For over ten years nearly a hundred of the best Biblical scholars of England and America have been engaged in the so much talked of work of revising the Bible, and the result of their labours, which are now nearly completed, will be awaited with in- tense eagerness. The alterations are said to be about eleven thousand in number, one thousand of which are important chan- ges in the New Tesmment. The good Chris- tians who have been in the habit of declar- ing that they “ believed every word in the Bible ” were a great deal more zealous than wise, and though the possessors of such un- reasoning faith will probably be shocked by the change made in some of their fa- vourite texts and possibly by the total dis- appearance of others, there can he. no doubt that. the book in its amended form is a great deal nearer the original than it was before, and will afford fewer pretexts for unbelievers to cavil at its” teachings; for many difficult passages will be made plain and many apparent discrepancies done away with. But, whatever the feeling with which the revision ofthe Bible is regarded, it was only undertaken after much thought and under a firm conviction of its necessity. Not only have the meanings of so many words changed with the lapse of time that persistence in their use is calculated to mislead modern readers ; but of late years such rapid strides have been made in Bib- lical scholarship that the numerous inaccu- racies in the book forced themselves upon the attention of the students. The Globe of last Saturday has a long and exceedingly interesting article on the subject, in which it tells us that while King James’s version of the Scriptures was based upon not more than live manuscripts, and these compara- tively modern, the forthcoming revision has been made after the careful comparison of over l,?.00 manuscripts, ninety-eight of which were written in the third or fourth century, and two of great value, made a- bout A. D. 34’), have been discovered with- in the present generation, one in a convent on Mount. Sinai and the other in the Vati- can library at. Rome. Another Victory for Iiiaulan. The long talked ofsculling match between Hunlan, of Toronto, and Laycoek, of Syd- ney, N. S. W., came off over the Thames course on Monday last, and. as everybody expected, was won by the Canadian Wllll the greatest case. The start was an even one, but aftera very few strokes Hunlan ltad a slight lead, which he gradually in- creased to four lengths, and kept that dis- tance ahead to the end ofthe race. Lay- eock rowed gamer and occasionally spurt- ed desperately; but he only exhausted him~ self without doing any good, for the gap thus partially closed tip was instantly widened again by his antagonist, who could probably have won by forty lengths instead of four, had he wished to do so. Both men were vociferously cheered at the end of the race, and as Laycock probably never expected victory, but. only coveted the honor of rowingagninst the “champion settl- ler of the world, ” it is to be hoped that he is satisfied. Haulan will return to his island home forthwith, a greater hero than ever; but with those who wish to find out what he really can do still unsatisfied. â€"â€"â€"_ Dcxrtsrnv.â€"â€"-Mr. Ncelands, dentist, of Lindsay, or his representative, will be at the McArthur House.

In Bantamâ€"The recent thaw having converted the snow on Cameron Lake Tnto water and the subsequent coldsttap turned it into ice, Messrs.

They were recovered in such a curious manner that the facts. as told to us _ , _ _ , l by Mr. Lyon, will be ofiutcrest to our read- : right of redressing their wrongs, it is nn-I l l derstood that they shall be rcdressed by the l crs. As is well known he made use of a large amountof printer‘s ink. and to this more than anything else he ascribes the recovery ofthe papers. The day after he first advertised his loss, a young man step- ped into Esterbook‘s studio and asked for Mr Lyon, informing him that he had found a pocket-book containing a sum of money and some papers, in the place advertised, on the same date as Mr. Lyon lost his. L‘pon asked if the offer made some day's ago held good, that if the papers were returned no questions would be asked about the money, and stating that. if such was the case, she knew where the papers were and could easily get them. Mr. Lyon said that his offer as made still held good, when the mysterious visitor put her hand in her pock- ct and produced every one of the missing papers, but no book or money, and abruptly retired. We simply give the facts as relat- ed to us, and allow our readers to draw their own conclusions. - A Brutal Land Agent. On a Tipperary estate there was lately a poor man with a sick child who had been advised by the dispensary physician to procure a goat to furnish tnilk to the inva- lid. Permission had been asked of the land- lord's agent to buy the goat, and after the lapse of four weeks the tenant bought. the animal without having heard from the agent. At the time the landlord happened to be in London. In a few weeks the agent having learned of the purchase, came round and asked the man why he had pre- sumed to buy the goat without permission. Being shown the animal, the agent. coolly shot it on sight. Another case cited was that ofa man who, because of lack ofroom, built for himselfa more comuiodious house. The agent, because the tenant. had not ask- ed for a permit to build, put the. man and his family on the road without compen- sation for the new structure. He was re- placed hy the Land Leaguers. ’ o A Shocking Occurrence. SUDDEN DEATH OF A MEMBER OF TIIE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY. One of the most terrible occurrences in the history of any Canadian Parliament happened in the Legislative Assembly Chamber and its immediate precincts on the afternoon ofthe llth inst. When the Speaker took the chair n. few minutes after three o'clock, Dr. llnrkin, the member for Prescott, came in as usual and sat down in his seat, which is directly to the left. of the Speaker and in the rear row. The House had been engaged for a few minutes in routine proceedings, when those near the doctor noticed that he appeared to be full- ing into a fit ofsome sort. Mr. Richardson, the member for the South Leeds, who sits close by, was the first to get hold of him, and with the hpr of two or three others Dt. Ilarkin was removed to the Speaker's room, which is only a few steps from where he was sitting. Before lie was laid on the sofa there, however, he had become quite unconscious. Medical aid was at once summoned, and the unanimods opinion be- ing that the attack was apoplectic, blood- letting was resorted to ; but without avail, for Dr. I’Iarkin gradually sank and expired about twenty minut's to 5 o’clock. As he was a Roman Catholic, Father Ilazdcn, of St. Patrick’s, was sent for, and performed the last. rites of the church over the dying man. Deceased, who leaves a wife and large family to mourn his loss, was a Can- adian ofIrish parentage, and was born in 183Lâ€"Globe. - A Strange Menace. examination the book was found not to be the one lost, and for several days nothing more was heard of the matter,and Mr. Lyon had almost given up, when a gentleman told him to interview a certain lady and she could put him on track of his valuables. He, of course, jumped at the chance, and sought out the lady in question, who then referred him to a certain house, where she said she felt confident that the people knew something about the book. He went to the place designated, found the family at home, and at once stated his business. All knowledge ofit was denied, but Mr. Lyon was in2possession of such good information, that he did not propose to be “ bluffcd off" so easily, and said if the papers were not forthcoming in a short time, he would offer $100 reward for any information regarding his loss. This occurred on Monday lust, and on Tuesday evening a lady closely veiled called at Mr. Lyon's residence and A very singular trouble has overtaken the producers of salt in Cheshire county, England. It seems that, for some. time past, instead ofdigging out the rock salt from the mines, the salt men have allowed large quantities of fresh water to run. into the pits, and, when it become brine, have pumped out and crystallized it. This was itt one way a dangerous operation, as the ground underneath the town of Norwich was honey-combed with mines and the wa- ter gradually sappcd away the foundations. However, the process was it. slow one. and it would have been years before itproduced bad results. Ilut, a few weeks ago, a toll and heavy chimney fell to the ground with a sullicientjerk to crack open a gap in the brook that supplies the mines with water, and into this opening the water flowed until the mines were wholly filled. The fear now is, and is woll founded, that, as the water may eat away the salt supporters, the whole town will sink, demolishing all the buildings that it. contains. -.‘h Outrage on the Welland Canal- EIS NEW LOCK GATES WAN'I‘l’tSI.Y DAMLGED KY PARTIES UNKNOWN.
