(Correspondence of the Gazette) SERIOUS Finnâ€"0n Friday, the lst insu, about 1 a. in., Mr. James Billctt, of this neighborhood, was aroused from sleep by hearing a great crash, and found himself almost suffocated by smoke. Hurryiug from bed, he started down the stairs, but found the kitchen in a rearing flame. Breaking a win- dow in the upper part of the house, he and his oldest son with diliiculty rcs- cued the other members of the family, having to drop them on the snow bc- ncath. Nothing was saved except the clothes from one bed, the family even losing the greater part of the clothes they wore the day previous. Had they , remained in-doors live minutes lung'ch they would probably have gone down with the building. Sorrow for Mr.l Billctt and his family is cxprcsscdl through the whole community.

The Mail and the Jesuits." It is reported from Montreal that the Jesuits are to bring suit against the Mail newspaper for libel, claiming $50,- 000. If this is properly handled it will be the best thing that ever happened the Mail. To be sued by such a society ‘ ' I on such a charge will not only open the way for the Mail making publicly a. brilliant defence of its position, but clcvcr counsel, and no doubt the news- paper will retain the clcvcrcst men that can be got, will find an opening for the display of their talents which rarelyr falls to the lot of the legal big-wigs. What a field to gather cvidcncc'from, and what grand possibilities in the wav of evidence it presents. The magnitude of it will remove it from the list of or- dinary occurrences and raise it to an affair of national importance, and the Mail should and will not lack the full support of the people, particularly of this Previncc. There is a great pi'iiici. plc involved, and once bcL'nii it certain- ly will not cud in the Quebec courts, and it may be the first stop tciwards bringing about tlic reforms which the Mail advocates.
