There was, however, a little fun in it and much bufoonery, so that the audience were not wholly defrauded.

Rum Diww Ir.—A Wentworth, N. S8., cor- respondent of the Amherst Sentinel writes: The fruits of the liquor traffic are seldom seen in this place as they were last week when a young man died from its effects While passing through this place. William Murdoch, of New Annan went to Acadia Mines with a load .of apples-to sell, and when ready to return he met with a companion named Carroll, and having secured a supply of liquor they both started for home. In coming slong down the valley Murdoch became so intoxicated that he fell off the seat into the bottom of the wagon, when Carroll tovk the reins and covered him upwith the rug, but before getting two miles from Beeke’s Corner he met some persons and stopped to talk when they found Murdoch was dead, Carroll being two much intoxicated to know there was anything the matter with the man.

Haihousie College Examination

AN ISLAND BOY AHEAD,

Hairax, N. S., Sept. 21.

The results of the examination for the Munroe Senior and Junior Exhibitions, Dalhousie College, are announced. These mouey prizes are given by Mr. George Munroe, publisher of the Seaside Library, and are awarded to competitors entering the Ist and 2nd year of the course. Five senior exhibitions, each worth $400, and two senior bursaries, worth $300, are for third year students. These money prizes enable the winners to pay their expenses throughout the course, and devote their whole time to study. Schurman, of P. E. island, (a brother of the Professor, in Cornell), leads, only ten of the fifteen being awarded.

Yellow Fever. JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Sent. 21.

Otticial reports to-day give 118 new cases and 14 deatins. A large majority of the new cases are among colored people in the suburbs. There are comparatively few deaths among negroes, who usually recover rapidly. The total cases to date are 1,582, and the deaths 197.

Cuatranooea, Tenn., Sept. 21.

Chattanooga instituted a most stringent quarantine against all infected parts. No one is permitted to enter the city on any of the nine railways without giving a satis- factory account of himself. Quarantine officers board every train. The city council have adopted ordinances, inflicting a fine of $500 on aay persons entering the city from any infected district. A terrible state of affairs exists throughout Southern Alabama, Mississippi and Florida. Busi- ness is practically dead. Visitors shun the towns, and half the homes are deserted. All passenger traffic on railroads east of the Mississippi running to this city have been stepped.

Agents of all roads mentioned have been ordered not to sell tickets fur Memphis. No train is allowed to come nearer the city than ten miles. A squadron of armed pickets guard all roads leading into the city, and no one is allowed to enter. The sentiment in Memphis is that it can better afford to spend $100,000 to keep the city clear of infected persuns than to have even one case of fever, which would cost the merchants millions of dollars of loss,

The citizens of Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee and Alabama feel the same way. Kvery town and city in the States, from Cairo, Ill. Sunth to New Orleans, has es- tablished strict quarantine against the in- fected portions. Shot gun quarantine pre- vails along the line of Lilinvis Centre, from New Orleans to Fulton, Ky.

Horrible Murder. Orrawa, Sept. 21.

A horrible case of poisoning has been re- ported on the shores of Lake Temiscam- angue. Forsome time past Mrs. Bover has been anxious to get rid of her husband. An opportunity occurred on Sunday when the man complained of feeling unwell, and his wife suggested a dose of Epsom salts, but instead prepared a dese of strychnine. The husband was suspicious of the mixture and refused to take it, when to satisfy his scruples the woman took a spoonful, which induced him to take the full dose.

The woman miscalculated the strength thinking, doubtless, that the spoon- ful would not hurt her. A man

named Grenier called in shortly afterwards and found the woman’s muscles twitching from the effects of the poison, and the hus- band in convulsions. The woman explain- ed what was the matter and the man went for assistance, but when it arrived both were dead.

Ottawa News. OrTawa, Sept. 21.

A meeting of the Northwest Central Railway has been held here, at which the Chief Engineer of the line reported that owing to some heavy fillings on the first fifty miles of the line, the grading was not yet completed, and i1t would be impossible to finish the laying of the rails this fal].

It is stated that the Government intend to appoint a judge to fill the late Judge Henry’s place on the Supreme Court bench before the next term commences, and that the selection will be made from Nova Scotia.

Prof. Macoun, of the Geological Survey, has returned from Prince Edward Island, where he has been studying the natural history of the Island.

Successful Exhibition.

Toronto, Sept. 21.

This year’s Exhibition, which closed to- day, has been the most successful of any yet held. The total receipts amounted to $59,553.68, showing an increase of $7,462.13 over last year.
