I knew he was a practical fresh water sailor. having sailed much with his father, who is a careful manager of a boat. Mr. Snnmlersctt, who came up at the time. said to Boon: Do you think ofgoinglo Barrie? It is too late, and the wind is blowing very hard; _it`you want to go for a sail, wait until _ to-morrow, and then you will have the day ' before you. Boon said that he would go at once-thnt there was no danger, as it was only a good sailing wind; that we need not be `alarmed about him, as he would be back again by 7 o'clock. Mr. Summersett, finding he was determined on going, said: I have a mind to say you shall not go. A frown settled on John Boon s face, and .\Ir. Summorsctt then said: Well, John. do `as you please.

Music is generally considered expensive, but when such a quantity is fur- nished tor the small sum of thirty cents, it ceases to be a luxury, and even the poorest may sing. play, and be happy. Our musical friends will do well to examine the work, and we feel condent that thirty cents, sent to the publishers for a-sample copy, will yield them a larger return for theirinvestment than any similar outlay they can make. Send for a copy, or get your news-dealer. to get one for you,.und we will guarantee you will thank us for calling your attention to it. It is issued by J. L. Peters. music publisher, Box 3429: New York, at the low price of $3 a year. or 30 cents for single copies. ` Loving music our- selves, we naturally feel llli.(`I`('Sl.t'(l_ifl circu- listing it among our musical friends, and know of no better way of doing so than by recom- mending Peters Jllusical Monthly. The read- ing matter is not excelled- by any of the standard monthlies. and the music is all that can be desired. both as regards qumzlity and ' quality. Knowing this to be the case, we T have made arrangements with the publisher ll to club our paper l`or $3 per anuuin, or we tc will receive subscriptions at the rate of $3 I per year. - M 4--< >----- -A Volunteer `- Sacked. j-- An Unfounded Rumour.-It may be true thatrnmour does not `always lie; but the rumour. we gave currency to last week a"ect- ing the solvency ofone of the most enterprising mercantile firms in Toronto, the Messrs.

I" ` DOMINIO N % CLOTHING wum: um um suH_|Cct, 1 may mention that much trouble and annoyance is occasioned by ill-disposed parties in this town enticing vol- unteers to leave the Regimental Band. I will not mention names at present, but the party who persuaded Private 'l`oulen to give up his in- trument ansd leave the force, may rest O.SSll['Cll, that if he makes another attempt of the kind. he will he brought before a magistrate, under a section of the Milittia Act which provides for such cases. It is hard to contend against those ' for whose protection we are enrolled. and for whose defence many of ns have sacriced our business prospects for life; but since we are forced to do so. the under- signed will not shrink from putting the law in force. Sir Walter Scott asks: Breathes there a man with sonl soldead, ' Who never to hlmeelflmth said This is my own, my native land? . If Sir Walter lived in Canada at the present time, he would not ask the question. as it is patent. to every observer that we have many men among us who are dead to every princi- pal of loyalty and patriotism, and quite con- tent tolive under any flag or any government. so long as they are left alone. We have our share of such men in Barrie, and I would ad- vise them. before they offer any further oppo- to the militia here, to look over the act. and they will-liml that any person persuading a militiamen to resist a draft, or not to perform any militia duties. or connsellin,r: him not to attend any parade or mustt.-r,_ is liable to a line of one hundred dollars. Whatever the opinions of these may be, with regard to the government and defence of Canada. they will act wisely in keeping them to themselves, and in otfexing. no opposition to the working of the militia law.

The meeting of Parliament was ex- pected to give us the key to the problem `which has y.uzz3eJ so many, and we ex- pect Mr. McDougall will take the first op- portunity of explaining how the Coalition character of the Cabinet ha;/been so changed as to reduce the repr entatives of the Reform party [here ,to two, and virtually one, for along time. It was well known that negotiations were commenced last fall for` lling up one of the vacancies, and Mr. Mcl)oiig2:ll s absence from the country, should not have prevented the l . appointment being marle. We suspect the difficulty is with the gentleman ask- : ed to take the vacant seat. Mr. Holton s , question was an important one, sneer at c it as the Ministerial journals may. Mn : Mackenzie, too, did goal service in object- 1 ing to the selection ot'.tl1e North shore , route for the Intercolonial Railway. 11 Scarccly an Ontario journal has ventured '3 for " if. wna r.\-An :l.u.nn....A.l I... 41... l')........... i i ' whole ` cinl heads!

He persists in saying that the of the departments are necessary, and possibly be may be right in this; but how comes it that _two of those depart- ments have been left so long without oi-T the Postmaster-Generul, and the other by the Premier himself; and, if it is thought desirable to unite the two oiccs inques- tion,-,withothera,`all well enough, provided the salaries are saved. If, however, the departments are -needed, they oughtsurely ` to be placed under separate heads. We can understand how the difliculty occur- red, when it is explained thntthe absence of Mr. MeDoug:d in England prevented the oise vacated by Mr. Howlund being lled. But, are we to understand that there is not to be a fair di\'ision of the offices as before? Is Ontario to be repre- sented in the Cabinet by two. and for the past nine months by only one member of the Reform party? This becomes a perti- nent questiou in view of Sir John's stnte mcnt respecting the lling up of vacan- cies.

It is not custo- mary for a Ministry to tell in ii speech at the opening of Parliinnent all they intend to do, but we-hold that `there should` be at leustu pretty clear intimation of the more prominent Govcrniueiit business. True enough, we have allusions to matters of the greatest importance, and we have no doubt the Ministry are prepared to deal with them all; but the country wanted something more than mere` ret'ei'erices to those questions. Mr. McDougall is known to liare expressed 'hiinselt' averse to the terms of the proposed transfer of the North West; Sir John A.

The prisoner Anthony Wuunch was indicted for murder.

The Queen vs. Anthony Waunch.-On the 25th dayof November last, about 8 o'clock at night one Geo. Mccue, a resident of Coiling- wood, -in company with seven other young men, repaired to the house of an old man, named Wauneh, tiving in the suburbs of Cot- `lingwood, for the purpose of getting away from his custody agirl namedbiargaretshields, who was staying there contrary to the desires and wishes of her friends. The party, so as to- aroid detection, blackened their t`nces,changed s coats and otherwise disguised themselves" and armed, some 0!` them with_ciubs. others with stones. knocked at the-door, demanding od- mittance;this was refused; they sursmoned the inmates, consisting ofywnuncli, his wife and three sons, to surrender up thegiri, this was also refused. Iteing aggravated by the re- fusals they threatened toytnke thelife of Jas. Wa_unch.who was supposed to be engngedto the girl,-uuless she was given up to them. On this threat being uttered, old Waunch called out to hand his axe and gun. The party then, ac- cording to the evidence of two of them. who were examined as witnesses. began to disperse (but as stated by the Waunch family acted very much more violentiy) and while so doing old Waunch called out to his son, the prisoner; who lived about one hundred and llfty yards on`, to come over and bring his gun, that nnnttetnpt was being made to murder him. l`he prisoner then came over. and I;e- iug assailed with stones on the way,` having, and` as he asserts himself," first- warned them to desist, then tired at the nearest person to him, the unfortunate -Mcdue, at who was the time about eighteen yards o`. The ball entered behind and above the hip and and passed through the "body. He was borne hence, and died from the effects of the wound about 1 o'clock next day. The prisoner in the meantime surrendered him- self and stated at the time he regretred what had happened, but asserted he was so assailed that -the shot was tired in self`-defence. It is ditlicult to say which story to believe; the Crown witnesses certainly showed that the shot was tired altogether without that prove- cation which wouldjustify the taking of the |it'e'ot`one of the party ; while the evidence for the defence being entirely the Waunch famfly, proved that a gross, outrageous and most uuwarantabie attack had been made after night on their house and lives. and that the shot was not tfred until every ell`ort had been made to avoid the-necessity. give evidence taken at. tlm a I 1 J 1 .' 1 ..__..___.:-_-_-__._._.____..-----j `"`V SIIICOE SPRING ASSIZES; BEFORE CHIEF wsrxcn I-IAGARTY. -_._.-. a prevenuon otcriminnl cases in the future. 9 We also begto present: that we have duly visited the jail. and take much pleasure in ; stating that we found it, and everything con- ! corned therewith; in the most satisfaxctory I manner, rectif ing great credit upon the Governor, Mr. nng, who appears to do every- thing in his power for the comfort of those under his care. .

Dailey admitted the soft impeach- ment, and then, in justication of his reputa- tion, admitted that whatever he had done that was bad was to pay oll` an old grudge. Thus the wily detective led the old sinner onuntil he confessed the burning of the store-house, and added his regret that the Greens were not Growing bolder, after once breaking the ice, Paddy said, if the detective would only let him know when he was to join the Fenian army, he would burn the store of the Greens, and them in it, if he could, before he went.

The criminal Daley, whose trial for arson was reported in last week s E.\'A.\hl\'ER, was brought to grief by the stratagem of a sharp detective, who has been in our midst for a tew weeks past. ' An explanation of the modus operandi. by which the rascal was in- velgled into a confession of his .crimes_, ; may not prove uninteresting. After the burning of V the Messrs. Green , Brothers . storehouse, at Hillszlale, Mr. Wm. Smith. of London, 0., chief of Mr. Mc.\Iicken's detective force, sent one of his men to this locality for the purpose of discovering the incendiary, and the sequel proves that this man was equal to the dillicult task. Assuming the garb and ap- pearance ef a cattle-buyer, he sought; and formed the acquaintance of the new convicted scoundrel Dailey, and hired him to accompany him in his search after fat cattle. After some two weeks spent together on- this pro- tended mission,. the detective, wvith an air of seriousness and assumed eon- lidence, told his victim that his (the de- tective s) business was not buying cattle, but getting men for the Fenian army. At this Dailey expressed his delight and his willing- ness to volunteer. The detective promised him a commission as captain at once, and then aconfidential -`cont`nb"' followed betweenthe two, during which Dailey nrnfiun and ....._4! mums 01 we community of this couiny.` \V:c speak advisedly in this strain. for we have _'often bought at the Fire-`Proof House, and was never once sold. .Our friends making purchases In Bradford _can verify the truth of l\nn- ........__A,- _ , was never -0| in can our nssert1ons.-Sec adv't.
