dered.

! —_ | Chas. Hamilton, of Omemee, near Port Hope, ;Ont., was brutally inurdered. on the 10th by aone-armed man named Henry Wood, in a tavern in that village. Deceased, who was fifty-nine years of age, belenged to a highly respectable Frish famuly, his father, a landed proprietor in the County Monaghan, being of the Hamiltons of Dorm, Lady Duiierin’s family, Hamilton came .to Canada in 1835, but soon ran through his money, and for some years past has led a dissolute life, living on money seat him from ireland. He was in Bowman’s Tavern, in Omemec, when Wood, a vagabond horse-trader, began a’ quarrel with him, and without any provocation struck hima violent blow on the head with a slung shot, and kicked him repeatedly’ in the‘ abdomen, Hamilton died next day. Wood fied; and is believed to be m New York State. ~ Both men were under the influence of liquor.

Frightful Death.

A horrible accident lately occured at a blast finrnace in South Stoekton.. 'Uhe hopper of a

}farnace was charged by. aman named James

} Higgins and other, workmen with ironstone, etc., and in order to allow,the material to fall into, the furnace an attempt was made to lower the “hell—a large conical shaded apparatus fitting into the bottom of the hopper about two feet into a broader space. The bell had become jammed into the ypper part of the ring sand ‘could not be stirred.” After several in- eifectual attempts to free it; Higgins procured a large hammer, leaped on the bell, and strack ita blows The apparatus immediately sank into the broader space, and Higgins went with ii, A. groan was ‘heard but nothing could be seen of the,, poor fellow ashe passed swiftly with the material into the furnace. The blast was at once thrown off and a powerful current of air forced in, but the horrible smell which arose, proved that the poor man’s body was being consumed, and not the slightest. portion of it was recovered, A coroner was summoned, but could hold no inquest as there was no re- mains to view. A Roman Catholic priest read the burial service of the Church, on top of the furnace, short!y after the accident.

Letter from Benjamin Franklin.

The following letter, addressed over a cen- tury ago by Ben. Franklin, who was in Eng- land, to a friend in Massachusetts, contains some reflections that are as true to-day as they were & hundred years ago :-—

** Tf our Country People would well consider that all they save in refusing to purchase for- eign Gew-gaws, &c., in making their own ap- parel, being apply’d to the improvement of their Plantations, would retider those more profitable, as yielding a greater produce, I should hope that they would persist resolutely in their commendable Industry.and F rugality. And there is still a further Consideration. The Colonies. that prodace Provisions grow very fast ; but of the countries that take off those Provisions, some do not increase at all, as the European Nations ; and others, as the

Vest India Colonies, not in the same propor- tion. So that, tho’ the Demand at present may be suflicient, it cannot’ long contiaue so. Every Manufacturer entonraged in our Country makes part of a Market for Provisions within ourselves, and saves so much Mohey in ‘the Country as must otherwise be exported to pay for the Manufactures he supplies. Here in England it is well known and understood that, wherever a manufacture is established which

employs a Number of tiands, it. raises the value of land in the neiglibor- ing Country all around _ it; partly

by the greatest Demand near at hand for the Produce of the “Land; and partly from the Plenty of the Money drawn by the Manufac- turers to that Part of the Country. It seems, therefore, the Interest of all our Farmers and Owners of Lands, to encourage our young Ma- nufactures im preference to: Foreign ones im- ported among us from distant Countries.

The Noble Lifo. There are those who, with a kind of nobie, but mistaken, asdiration, are asking for a life which s! im its form. and outward course, be more spiritual and divine than that which they are obliged to live. They thiek that if they coulkl devote themselves entirely to what are called the labora of philanthropy, to visit the. poor anil sick, that they would be well and worthy—aund so Jt would pe. They think that if it could be inseribed on their tombstone that they had visited a million couches of disease, aud carried balm and soothiny yo them, that it

Dut let us tell you that the million ‘eecasions will come—ay, in the ordinwiy paths of life, in your houses and by your’ tiresides—-wherein youmay act as. nobly as ifvall your life long you had. visited beds of _sicsness aud pain. Yes, we say theanillion occesions. will come, varying every hour, in which you may restrain your passions, subdue your hearts to gantle- less and patience, resign your interests to another's advantage, speaks words of kindness and wisdom, raise the fallen, and cheer the fainting and Sick in spisit, and soften and as- suage the weariness and bitterness of the mortal lot. These cannot indeed he written on your tombs, for they are not one series of specific actions, like those of what is technic- ally denominaeed philanthropy. But in then we say, you may discharge offices not Jesse glorious for yourselves than the labors of Howard or Oberlin, They shall not be writ- ten on your tombs, but thoy ore written deep in the hearts of men—of friends, of chil lren, of kindred all around you, --.<<m>- A Terrible Death.

Robert Robertson, who worked and also lived on the Jackson farm, near the village of Caledonia, left his home on the morning of the ist inst., forthe village, to have a “good time generally,” and, after imbibing pretty freely, started to return home about nme in theeyen- ing. The night being very dark, deceased finding it very difficulé.to keep the road, called on his way at the house of Mr. Alexander Fin.- lay to obtain a light, but as Mr. Finlay could not accommodate him, he proceeded ‘on his Way Without one. It is then supposed that he must have wandered to the right, crossed the tlats, and, not knowing wheré he was going, walked’ into the river. - Mrs. Ritchie, who lives Hedrstiie iron foundry, just before ten

coming from some one apparently in great dis-

D. Doyle that it must be some one in the river, as she heard great splashing of water. Doyle, who was accompanied by a man named Johnston, at once proceeded down to-the Spot from whence the cries- came. After waiting here for some time aud not having heard any- one, but seeing a light-on the other side of the river, they naturally came to the copelusion that if. there was.a man iu the water he had been assisted. ont by some one on the other side, and started for home. The man was again heard crying and calling for Mary to bring him a light, but I Joyle and Johnson being fully convinced that he had got out, did not go down again to the river. No- thing more was heard or seen of deceased until nearly noon the next day, when Mr, Robinson becoming alarmed at the prolonged absence of her husband, went in search of him, and called at the workshop of Mr. Martineau to make some enquires concerning ‘his whereabouts, Some of Mr. M’s workingmen thinking he might possibly be drowned, at once went in search of him, and about four o'clock in the | afternoon found his body near the south side of the river, with one leg protruding out of the water, the restof the badly being covered witha thin coating of ice. His suffering must have been terrible, and the supposition is that after wa- ding through the water for a long time endeav- oring to find his way out, he became paralyzed and died from exposure, The deceased leaves a sw and two children to mourn his untimely end.

Two of the committee of ladies attend each week day, make the soup and other delicacies for the sick and poor, and then apportion them to certified applicants. Thirty-two families are now relieved weukly, or sixteen three times each week. The contributions are -voluntar r, of course, and reach their object through the “corner grocery,” Horne’s, everything being useful, and as the demand is much more than equal to the supply, we hope the public will strengthen the ladies’ bivads and allow the to increase their much needed labor of lov. y — them meat, poultry, vegetables, clothing, and the odds snk én of household and shop, that means much to the poor, — Patriot.
