Lonpon, July 26.--In the Commons last night John Morley attributed the fever ex- cited by the question of the royal grants to the Government’s want of frankness. He evuld not support Labouchere, because that yentleman implied that a message from the Queen ought never to have been presented. Morley desired to uphold the good forms and traditions of parliament. On Monday he would move an amendment raising the

Toronto, July 26.—The news of the election of Bishop Walsh to the arch- bishopric of Toronto was received with joy by the Roman Catholic clergy here.

A Very Strange Story
OF A MURDER, A DEATH BED CONFESSION, AND A HUNT FOR THE BURIED TREASURE OF A MURDERED CANADIAN,
A story which rivals the fiction of even the latter-day writers in its strangeness is going the rounds of the Boston newspapers,
‘and as it bears a semblance of probability
it finds many believers. In 1856 Pierre Mignoltt, according to the story, died on his farm near Brompton Falls, County of Richmond, Que., leaving two sons and three daughters and an unencumbered farm and £3,000 in cash. Leo, one of the sons, took the money to Buston to invest. There he became acquainted, almost im- mediately, with two young men and to- gether they went to one of a group of rocky islands cailed the Brewsters, in Boston harbor, on a fishing excursion. While there Leo excited the cupidity of his com- panions by showing his gold and bank notes. They smashed in his head and were about taking the money when 4 pass- ing sloop scared them and they pitched the body, money and all into a hdle, filling it with earth. They returned to Boston, but remorse overcame them and inatead of re- turmng for the money they left for the west, where they wandered together until one was killed in Denver. The survivor went to work in the Pennsylvania coal mines, where, in 1885, he was seized with consumption. Then he went to Brompton, where on his death bed he told the story of the murder.
The Mignoltts had meanwhile become poor, but in possession of 4 map which the dying man sentthem. They saved enough money to send the surviving son to Boston this spring, when he at once visited the Island and started to hunt for the grave. The chief landmark at the time of the crime was a cedar tree, but this was now gone and it made the work difficult. He, however, proceeded to dig up the whele af the grass plateau, when he was interrupted by the new owner of the island, who asked him what he was doing. He was afraid tu confess his valuable secret, fearing that some ore might rob him of his own, so only gave a lame excuse. This roused suspicion, and he was orderedoff the island. Dis- pirited he returned to Boston, and finally his funds giving out he returned home. In despair it is said that he has written to the Boston authorities asking them to prosecute the search, as he and his two sisters are in sore distress. The municipal authorities explainec that they had no right to go prospecting for dead men and buried treasures on other people’s property, but they have appealed to the owner, who is highly interested, and steps are being taken to make a careful search of the entire rock.

Dear Sir,—I beg to offer you my mast sin- cere apology for the part i have taken in the recent correapondence and exposure (so calied) in reference to the Salvation Army.
I was led into the matter partly at the sug- gestion of a third party, and partly for self- interest; and so I may have perhaps thought at the time that 1 had some grounds for the statements made.
I believe, upon consideration, that, on the whole, they are groundless, and cannot really be substantiated.
I must exonerate the managers of the paper in question from any blame in the matter, as 1 believe they acted in good faith and thor- oughly believed in the accuracy of every statement, and performed only what they be- lieved to be a public duty in the manner best suited to their judgment.
Although personally I have never made any charges of harshness against yourself, | believe indirectly this has been the construc tion put upon the articles in question, and I beg most emphatically to say I have ever at your hands received most generous treatinent,
in course of construction and nearly com- and it is my firm conyiction that these charges |
would not be substantiated by any member of
Messenger and the carriage shop of Wallace |the Salvation Army past or present, either ,
against yourself or any of your colleagues in Canada, or upon the Army management as a whole.
Reviewing the whole circumstance, I ex tremely regret the pin and annoyance of these things | have brought upon yourself, and aleo the reproaches that have been cast upon a worthy and beneficial corps; and I hope that, as this writing becomes public knowledge, any slight distrust as te the pure motives and bona fides of the Salvation Army that may have arisen will as speedily disap- pear as it has unworthily been exerted.
You are at perfect liberty to make any use >
you please of the above. I am, dear sir, Yours truly, A. SUMNER, Author of ‘‘ The New Papacy.”

A Mr. Hyde in Real Life.
REMAKKABLE AND TERRIFYING SCENE IN A CHICAGO COURT ROOM,
A peculiar case of insanity is that of Harry Munzer, which came before Judge Garry, at Chicago one day last week. Mup- jnever having indulged in the geueral prac- tices of ...st city young men, his features bore a decidedly innocent but intelligent expression as he entered the witness Yox,’ For four yesrs he had acted as entry clerk, and his mauipulation of figures was con- sidered something wonderful. He has been subject to gloomy spells at periods about two years apart, during which he would become a recluse for weeks at a time. He spoke of these.
** Just tell us about the last one,” said the court.
‘*] feel something approaching heavily,” said Munzer, ** but I can take good care of myself here.” Beads of perspiration stood on his brow, but ie displayed no nervous- ness. ‘**The queer sickness came on me again about a year ago,” he said, ** and this time ] became much alarmed at the devel- opments. | seemed’ to be approaching a state altogether different from the natural one. Anague-like feeling crept over me, beginning first in my brain. My mind did not seem to be growing weaker, but it seemed to be altering its fuact-ons material- ly. Presently the sight of a tool er any- thing with a blade would start every fibre and nerve in me to tingling, and | became afraid of myself—afraid for my friends.
‘**] felt an impulse growing upon me to harm or kill, I knew what I was about. I recognized the faces of my friends. | had a cool control of my mental faculties. | was not out of my head in the least, but there was a desire which seemed to be muscular as well as mental, and wholly apart from my natural volitions. My father saw only the outside of this, and I dared not explain to him the compiete revolu- tion in my being. He sent me to Lake Geneva to be treated in a private institu- tion there and now for seven months [ have been there under the constant care of several experienced physicians. They have been unable to assist me. I grew worse. 1 knew it and realized the dread change. Never have I lost my senses. The doctors gave me chloroform, but | fear that it has hurt my nervous system, and served to augment that fearful development rather than cure it. I now insist that I be placed sumewhere so | may be watched and treat- ed differently. The week I have been here since [ left Geneva I have not been home. I will not gothere. I believe that some rapid change for the worse would take place immediately should | go back. This mania would unman me and force me to do that which | have been battling against. I would killthem. I might bill myself, and yet | would know what | was about.”’
The story itself was not so very different from what one might expect to hear from a man who felt himself becoming insane. What terrified the jurors was the complete change in his features as he proceeded. From an innocent, harmless expression at
the beginning, they changed to one of ex- treme cunning and malignity. Ashe pro-
ceeded, deep lines appeared in the cheeks, beside the nose. The corners of the mouth became drawn, the forehead wrinkled as an old man’s, aud his voice actually changed. The words came from the chest, and in fact the entlre aspect of the man was changed. He bent forward in his chair, his shoulders stooped, and his eyes became watery. When the narrator reached that portion of his recital, where he spoke of killing, his face was sinister enough to frighten the apectators.
** That will do,” said the Judge, in a husky voice.
Munzer was startled at the command, He looked up wildly, then fell back in -his chair, half exhausted, withasigh. Tears fell down his cheeks. The wrinkles disap- peared from his forehead, the fiendish ex- pression left his face, and a minute more he was the young man, Harry Munzer, again with the innocent face.
The jury brought in a him insane.
