Fire at ALtserton.—Shortly before,the Telegraph Office closed last evening, a des- patch was received, stating that a fire was raging in Alberton, The despatch did not state the place or the extent of the fire, but the severity of the wind which prevail- ed all night, causes us to believe that much damage will be done.

INDIAN OUTRAGES IN LABRADOR.—Quebec

Oct. 29,—Accounts have been receis ed from

the Labrador Coast of the seiaure by li - diaus of a Magistrate. 1p appears that Mr, Franeis O'Brien, District Magistrate Culeoutimi, despatched this fall by the Lo- cal Government to admeipisier justice there, stopped cn his mission at the port nea seven Islands, where he tried and sen am Indian for some misdemeano! ov other. As he was leaving the tempor- arily organized Court he was seized by about thirty of the savages, who bound him and dragged him off into the woods. Aboat a week after this occurrence a mis- tionary passing by the spot heard of the uffair, and communicated the facts to Mrs O'Brien by letter to Chicoutimi, where the news created great excitement, many thiaking that Mr. O’Brien s capture had heen followed by his murder. In the mean- time his distracted wife is taking every step possible to ascertain his whereabouts and recover his liberty.

| To the Editor of the la ly Examiner :

Sir: The Assessment Act is creating | | great dissatisfaction in the country. Pub-, lic meetings are being héid in every dis. |

Attorney for collection, without dis-| trict, and it is not unlikely that many per | lance, Wolfe. Shed

|sons will refuse to pay their taxes until |compelled to do so, The Assessors have ‘done their work in a very bungling man- ner, not only over rating the values of properties, but also omitting the names of persons liable to assessment, in most cases those of young men. These persons may /consider it a very good thing to be overs looked, but I write to call your attention to the fact that at the next revision of electors, in 1878, unless it appears by the copies of the Assessment Rolls furnished the Judge that an elector has paid his |taxes, the Judge immediately strikes his name off the roll, ‘it Leiag the intention of this Act that no name shall appear upon the revised and the certified lists of electors, excepting oe being les gally qualified to vote, ljve paid their poll tox, and, in case 6f non-evidence, have paid the taxes upon such property ar they claim the right to vote upon.” ! quote from the Act.

To illustrate - A. B’s name is now on the List of Electors, but it has not been re~ turned on the Assessment Roll, and not being asked for his taxes, he does not pay them. Revision Court meets next August. Judge Alley has Electoral and Assessment Lists before him. A. B's name not being on the latter as having paid his taxes. it is at once struck off the former.

It is to the interest of every elector, | who values his vote, to have his taxes paid /so as to secure it, and if he is not called upon by the Collector, he should make it his business to gO and pay his taxes. | trust that our Liberal»Conservative Com. mittee will attend to this matter, and see that the electors understood it. aR ge

A REIGN OF TERROR.

MURDER AND VIOLENCE UNCHECKED IN DARKE

COUNTY, OHIO.

Dayron, ct. O25.

The Virginia of Palestine, Darke county, thirty miles from Dayton, is in a wild state of excitement. Danie) Pitman, a leading lawyer of the town, was recently assassin« ated while riding on the public highway, several respectable women within the last two months have been outraged, and a number of others publicly insulted by an organized gang of outlaws infesting the community, all efforts to detect them proving unavailing.

A HORRID BUTCHERY.

This morning at two o’clock, Wesley Guyer, an oid resident of the town, living om the outskirts, was aroused by cries at the door of the house, Someone asked to see him, and he went to the door to find out who it was, and found a large gang of men assembled in front of his house. wear ing masks and carrying rifles. Before he could escape a volley was fired, rousing the entire neighborhood,

RIDDLED WITH BALLS,

The assassins scattered at once, and Guyer was found by his neighbors riddled with bullets and dying. Forty balls were counted, most of them passing through his body. Others shattered the Soseway of the heuse. ;

The entire country is in an uproar of excitement, with the determination to bring the murderous viilains to justice, No trace of them has as yet been discovered.

SEVERE STORM:ON THE BRIT. ISH AND IRISH COAST.

Late English and lrish papers describe a storm which occurred on the I4th and iSth October and was very destructive to shipping on the coast, as well as attended wite considerable loss of life. {t was in this storm that Cleopatria’s Needle was caught. he N. Y~- Herald had predicted the storm and also a storm on or about the 27th, which occurred on the 29th and cabled its weather prophecies. The Seois~ man states that on Sunday the I4th, the barometer fell to 28.45. Besides shipping railroads, cattle, trees, \c., wére injured or destroyed, ‘he storm jwas accompanied with lightning. ‘The Londonderry Journal has the following remarkable statement -— |

During the recent storm six cows, the | property of Mr. James Davenport, of Clag- gan, Culdaff, were killed by Ilghtning. The cattle were enclosed in a yard within a few perches of. Mr. Davenport's dwelling house, and to his surprise and sorrow he found them all quite dead in the morning, lying in a peculiar manner, on their backs, one of their number being wedged in the same position between the forked trunk, of an adjoining tree. The walis which af, | forded the animals shelter were thrown | down in different places, and the ground | on each side of it torn into deep trenches | about fifteen yards in length, It is re-|

nine months ago, a similar calamity oc. | curred—a horse, a cow, and a litter of pigs, the property of one of the inhabitants, | having been destroyed by lightning.
