At the Brant assizes, last week, the case of " Batchelor vs. the Railroad Company," was tried before His Honor Judge Draper, and damages to the amount of £6,178 17s. 6d. was awarded. 'From the report of the trial in the Brant Herald, we learn that the plaintiff, Batchelor, is a resident of Illinois, U.S, and While a passenger over the road, last summer, a collision took place, by which he had both of *his legs broken--one was subsequently amputated, the other is perma- ently injured. His sufferings were of the most excrutiating description, and he is now incapacitated from any active pursuit. Mathew Crooks Cameron, Esq., of Toronto, brought the action, and displayed great ability in conducting the case. Mr. Galt, Q. C., defended the company. While we regret that any mismanagement on the part of the compeny's servants should result in so greata misfortune to any passenger, and thus make them liable for so large a sum, we are rejoiced that a Canadian jury did country -- Prototype. numa a > O> "Supposed Murder at Hamilton. -We learn from our Hamilton correspon- | dent, that on Tuesday morning last, the, body of aman, bearing numerous marks of violence, was found lying in the water in Burlington Bay, near the Suspension Bridge. The body was identified as that of a teamster, formerly in the employment of Nixson & Swales, wharfingers. About two months since deceased was despatched with a load of goods to Welling- ton Square, and on his return, it appears he stopped for a short time ata tavern kept by a person nanied Skuce, immediately adjoining the. Suspension Bridge ; while there two men asked him if he would permit them to ride with him on his way home, which re- quest was not granted, and an altercation ensued. Since that period no tidings have been received of him, his horses returning home without a driver. A quantity of money and a valuable watch remained on the body of the unfortunate man, a proof that he was not assaulted with intent to rob, but from malevolent feelings.-- Globe, April 19th. i <> @ Gp ee Nracara, April 18, 1855.--The town of Niagara was this morning, about a quarter before seven o'clock, visited by a fearful hur- _Yicane. The night had been very stormy, with thunder and heavy showers of rain, A little before the hour referred to, the sky as- sumed a sea-green colour, succeeded in a few minutes by a clear white, which indicated the presence of the hurricane. The rush of wind lasted about five minutes, and was at its height not more than one minute. But the damage it did was tremendous. It struck the Niagara Car Works, and in an instant levelled two large finishing shops, each 175 feet by 50, containing a number of new cars, and took the roofs partly off some of the other buildings. A large new frame 200 feet by '70, intended for a foundry, and ready to.be enclosed, was piled in a mass. The engine house of the Erie and Ontario Railway was yery much twisted, and the large wood shed nearly destroyed. 'Throughout the town the damage was very great--roofs, fences, and chimneys blown down in all directions, 'The St. Andrew's Church received great injury--a third of the roof and gallery inside were swept away. Graves and Pruden's large Daguerrean Sa- loon was turned over two or three times, and is a complete wreck, The loss to Messrs. Brainerds, Pierson & Co. is great, but the amount has not yet been ascertained. We learn however, that their principal building, containing their ma- - chinery, is not injured except the roof, and that it -will bein operation again in two days, and their other buildings will be re- placed temporarily, so that their whole works may again be in operation in ten days from this time. die = Tt happened most providentially that the day had been set apart as the Fast Day, else we should have had to lament the loss of from 50 to 100 lives in the Car Factory. As it is, thank God, neither life was lost, nor a severely injured. "We have not heard, up t hour, whether the hurricane extended far. It came directly from the north, and apparent- ly struck the ground at intervals. sgeigeene an ene A child of Mr. P. Conlin, flour dealer, Adelaide street, to the present | A boy apparantly about 14 years of age, an apprentice toa shoemaker here, was found dead in the flume, at Gilmore & Co.'s, Mills, Port Hope, supposed to have been there for some six weeks, as he left his em- ployer at that time and was believed to have absconded. aay Ligutmine.--The crash of thunder which so shortly, sharply, and decisively frightened some of our citizens from the study of their bohea, yesterday evening, was accompanied by a flash of lightning which, in its descent, tore some of the stone ornaments from the eastern cross of the Roman Catholic Cathe- dral, in Church Street. The stone sepa- rated from the base of the cross was sufficiently large to have occasioned serious damage to any person with whom it might have come in contact, but we are happy to say that no injury, save to the base of the cross, occurred.-- Globe, April 20 eee Patriotic Funp.---Crowland, a rich town- ship, refuses to contribute one farthing ! Some black crows here! A few mechanics and laborers in the village of Chippewa, in the employment of O..T.

Long may this establishment flourish, and prosperity attend the patriotic band that have done honor to Chippewa ! Humberstone has contributed £100, and old Stamford £100. In both. these townships the sentiments expressed by the different speakers indicated a truly British spirit, and such exhibitions will, ere long shame-such people as the Crowlanders into a sense of propriety, if not of patriotism.--Prototype. ------ Hedgerows. There seems to be a remarkable back- wardness among our Canadian farmers in preparing for the impending scarcity of wood, a scarcity so great that thousands of miles of snake-fences, now rapidly decay- ing, can never be replaced by similar mate- rials. Our poor opinion is, that Agricultu- ral Societies should do everything in their power to encourage the planting of clumps of trees for shade, and shelter, and firing, and also hedge rows, a fence far superior in uy respect to the present fence of cedar rails. To say that hedge rows won't grow, is an unmitigated nonsense. Near Newmarket are hawthorn fences twenty feet high, which, if properly trimmed, would have made a fence as good as any old country farmer could desire to have. In this very city on Wellington street, and at a few yards east of the Don Bridge, and many other places, are proof to confirm our statement. The materials, too, are at hand. The Plains of Abraham pro- duce a thorn admirably adapted for the pur- pose. The States produce the Osage Orange and the Rhamnus Catharticus, or Buckthorn--and we have the Beech. 'West of England farmers will recollect that in Devonshire and Cornwall there are thousands of miles of hedges made with the beech dwarfed down, -At George Lesslie's excellent nursery can be seen a hedgerow of _ substantial justice to a foreigneryin a strange | the Buckthorn, perhaps, thé best. material we have forafence. Cattle will not touch it, and it bears the knife better than other plants. But in this as in most Canadian matters, -the hand to mouth system prevails. To-day is all we care for--to-morrow is unthought of, and unheeded ! : To this subject we shall soon recur again, and in the mean time we invite the attention of Professor Buckland and Sheriff Treadwell to the following offer which we made 18 months since, and now repeat, that we will give-- 1. A Silver Medal of ten dollars value to the person who shall plant and maintain the best hedgerows on his farm. 2. Another of similar value to the person who shall. plant clumps of trees about his property for ornament, shade, and shelter. 3. Another of the same value to any per- son who shall plant trees most judiciously for shade and shelter round his homestead.-- Anglo Canadian.

American Tract Society--Slavery. HE Independent, of New York, in an article in that paper, of the 15th March} being one of a continuation of articles regarding the "Ame- rican Tract Society," has this sentence:--' For thirty years, one of the greatest institutions of Evangelical Christendom, has been testifying in effect, that the institution of Slavery, the buying and selling of human beings, and the profession of the slave-trader, are less offensive to God, less contary tu the Gospel, less perilous to the souls of men, than the practice' of dancing. It has at- tempted to exhibitand authenticate, on the wid- est scale, an administration of Christianity, in which there shall be no more syllable of rebuke for crimes that shock the morals sense of Chris- tendom. The influence of the Tract Society has tended to make the Southern churches more timid and cowed in-the presence of the imperious Slave-trading interest. As a consequence of this CGR IY but not exclusively--behold the OUTHERN Apostacy !" In December 1844, a report of' The " Com- mittee of the Synod of New York and New Jer- 'sey, on the subject of the mutilations of books by the American Tract Society," was published; and in that report, the mutilations and omissions in the editions published, by that Society, of D'Aubigne's History of the Great Reformation, were pointed out--besides, there are the omis- sicns and expurgations in other books published, as,to the vile sin of Slavery, and the substitution of sentences other than the original. The notice by me entitled, " Publications," re- ferable tc these matters, has been widely circula- ted, and a Canadian public are again reminded of their duty. JOHN J. E. LINTON. Stratford, C.

CAUBRION332 ROM information received from reliable sources, we learn that parties are at present in Toronto, endeavouring to induce colored persons to go to the States in their employ as servants. From the character of the propositions, there is reason to believe that "foul play'? is intended. Possibly, that Constable Pope's designs on the, fugitives and others are being earried ont. ? Individuals have proposed to women to go to Detroit to live in their service, and another party under circumstances of great suspicion, toa boy to go.as far South as Philadelphia. We say to our people, lisen to no flattering proposals of the sort. You are in Canada, and let no misplaced confi- dence in this or the other smooth-tongued Yan- kee, or British subject either, who may be mer- cenary enough to ensnare you into bondage by collusion with kidnappers in the States, deprive you of your liberty. 6-ly and children, are annually sold into hopeless slavery from having been kidnapped, or by ar- rangement made with the victims themselves to enter service at a distance from their homes. From travellers South, we hear of kidnapped children from Philadelphia and other cities in the slave pens of Baltimore and other slave-trading towns. Read the captivity of Solomon North- rup, a free man, who entered into just such an arrangementas jcolored citizens of Toroito are now asked to dq, 'and who has to lament 12 years of captivity, from which his release was: more improbable than its continuance; and all the re- sult of listening to fair offers of excellent pay and easy position trom rogues. . This everlasting going whining after the flesh pots--this going to the States during the summer to pick up the crumbs that fall from Yankee tables, though ina pecuniary point profitable for the time being, possibly, is on the whole most humiliating, if not,.as we believe it to be, direct encouragement to those prowlers about of the Pope class to prosecute their nefarious business. Think of it men and women, who eschew a re- spectable life, of toil though it be, under this free government, to gain dollars in the United States at the expense of your and your children's liberties, by encouraging them to enterinto a like course of pursuits, and so risk their freedom. Is fthere not enough of the love of liberty, and of manly dignity, to grapple with whatever difficulties ) | may present themselves here, though toil and care attend your efforts, without forever running such risks for the small return of a few extra dollars? We hope that this subject may receive the at- tention its importance demands, and that the i pepe may be warned by preachers and the press of the dangers surrounding them. CIAL FREEMAN A "3rd.
