Tae fact that no notice of the Normal School Examination of yesterday appeared in the Examiner of last evening, is ac- counted for by the fact that we got an in- direct hint not to send a reporter to it. The Opposition Press were, we understand, all treated alike. It seems as though the powers that be are determined to keep their peculiar system from the knowledge of the great mass of the public known as_ the “Discontented Oppusition,” The Patriot says the éxamination was ‘‘ very interesting.”

Last night, about 11 o’clock, a crowd of boistfous fellows entered the private resi- dence of Mr. Theodore Morrow, on Rich- mond ‘Street, and created a disturbance among a number of countrymen.

A young man named McDonald was arrested, and appeared be- fere the Magistrate this morning.

The total score was Allan 84; Dover, 85.

McGofinel and Heartz arrested a sailor be- longing to the schr. Laodamia, who was acting in a very disorderly manner on beard the vessel—trying to cut away the masts. He was taken to the Police Station, where he, on entering, asked for a drink of water. Immediately after he drank it, his head fell forward, his eyes closed, he fell to the floor, and his whole body becameconvulsed. For an hour he lay in greet agony, and at times gnashing and grinding his teeth in a terrible manner. When he was recovering from the fit, Dr. Jenkins was sent for. On arrival, he pronounced him in a fair way of recovery. The Paoviot calls this a fit ** Malingering.”
