Crops in New Brunswick.

Tue Moncton 7ranscript has a doloreus article on the crop prospects in New Bruns- wick, but is somewhat encouraged by the thought that ‘‘there is a prospect of an abundant market, good prices and ample remuneration for those who will still “‘stick to the farm.” It concludes that the farmers will reap advantages that will be appreciated bye-and-bye ; for, after all, there is no other calling which affords to the mass of our people a greater certainty of constant, use ful, healthful employment, a home, @ com petency and comfortable provision for old age, than farming; and asks: ‘*‘ Would it not be well for more of our young men to remain upon the farms

— Cattle Raising in the Northwest.

[he Toronto Mail says: ‘‘ Mr. Wiser and his partners have the biggest thing, so far, in the way of cattle ranching in the North-West, and it is gratifying to know that there is not the slightest doubt of the success of their enterprise. There are «a number of other ranches to be started in _ favor- able districts within a short period. When all are in working order, and all pro- duce and feed their thousandsand thousands of cattle, what an immeose live stock rzising country Canada will be. ‘hen, with the Pacific railway completed, and Ontario the the great manufacturing province of the Do- minion, we shall find our Western stock- raisers competing for the privilege of sepply- ing our millions of artisans, their wives and children, with beef. The best part of the produce of the North-West will thus be consumed in the Dominion. The price of meat will also be reasonable. It is by encouraging the development of tho re sources of our own country that the con- dition of the people is improved, and not by the reroval of duties with a view to aiding the United States in its struggle for wealth.”

Ar the Carleton demonstration Sir John Macdonald paid a high tribute to the sup- port he received from the young men at the recent elections. He said :—

“Tf found sti!l further what must be a source of satisfaction to those of you who are of mature age, as it 1s a source of pride to me, that the young men of the country are almost uniformly Conserva- tives. (Cheers.) You cannot expect old men to be weaned away from the old parties; you cannot teach the old dog young tricks—(laughter)—and therefore, although many men of mature age aban- doned their politics for the sake of the country, yet the victory was won by the young men of Canada. They said, ‘ What have weto do with the old quarrels about clergy reserves, representation by popula- tion, and all the other questions which troubled our fathers and grandfathers / The past belongs to them ; but we have got to look to the future fer the good of the country; and the young men of Canada—of Western Canada especially— came out en masse for the N. P. and the Government which represents that policy.” (Cheers. )

The Saskatchewan Forks Coloniza- tion Company.

The Land Commissioner of the Sas- katchewan Forks Colonization Company, Mr. Hugh J. Montgomery, left Winnipeg on June 7th for the company’s tract with instructions to make careful reports of the lands for the information of the company and intending settlers. His last report to the Seeretary, Mr. Eyvel, states that he has received from various competent and trustworthy sources, the most favorable accounts of the fertility of the company’s land and their adaptability for agricultural urposes. This confirms the opinion of Sabo Macoun, Government surveyors, and other high authorities that the great city of the Northwest will be at or near

the branching of the Saskatchewan. Mr. Montgomery says: ‘‘The general

opinion among those most competent to judge is that the great tide of emigration is setting in towards this portion of the Northwest, and that even daring the pres- ent season the country in that direction will become rapidly settled.” One feature of the tract which will commend it to the attention of intending settlers is its accessi bility from Winnipeg by several cheap and convenient routes of travel. The Dominion Land Surveyor, appointed to survey the company’s lands, is now en route to the tract, and as soon as his labors are suffi- ciently advanced, the company will begin active operations towards settlement.-— Montreal?

Ow the evening of Friday last, Professor Anderson, of the Prince of Wales College, delivered a lecture on Education in Ludlow Hall before the Prince County Teachers Institute. Considering the unfavorable state of the weather, we were surprised to see such @ large audience present. The composition and style of the lecture were excellent,‘while the various phases of the subject were dealt with in an exhaustive and thorough manner. As we expected the secretary of the institute to hand in a report, we took no notes of the lecture, consequently wecan here make no more than a general reference. At the close several persons expressed opinions and a vote of thanks was tendered to Professor Anderson for his able lecture. The singing by the children by Mr. McLollan, teacher, was an interesting feature of the evening's entertainment. — Pioneer.

The British House of Commons had an all night sitting on Friday, and one which was marked by unusual excitement owing to the suspension, for obstraction of the proceedings, of sixteen Parnellite members, including some who had not only taken no part in the debate, but who at the time were in bed at home.

Sad Death | OL a Lunatic,

Escapes from the Hospital and’ Dies in the Woods

Of Expesure to Cold and Fatigue. PHE INQUEST AND VERDICT.

YESTERDAY afternoon, Dr. McLeod, Coroner for Queen’s County, held an in quest on the body of Peter Oliver, an in- mate of Falconwood Asylum, found dead at ** Warblington,”’ on the 4th iastant. The following is the evidence taken:

Joun MecPuait (sworn)—On Wednesday, the 2ist June last, | ordered the farmer to get out to work with several of the patients. On the afternoon of the same day, I sent the deceased, Oliver, out with them. At five o'clock p m. it was reported to me that Peter Uhver escaped. A short time afterwards |]

went to ftiad out from the farmer, Michael] McAleer, when and how he escaped. The farmer was then in search of Oliver. The

vaker was sent into town at once to inform the police of the escape. My reason for in- forming the police was because I was informed that, when Oliver escaped before, he came to town and att. mpted to get away by the train. There were two other patients escaped, and search was kept up daily for them. On one occasion three of the attendants were up the whole night looking for them after ten o'clock and up again at three o'clock searching, The under bush is very thick, and we directed our attention mainly to the woods surrounding the premises, The reason for search being made there, was because one of the escaped patients was seen twice on the outskirts of that wood. We had three sen- tinels beside myself in the clear fields to see that no escape could take place from the woods. | wrote to Gliver’s son at Lot 1], regarding the escape. I received no answer. These patients while at work and previous to their escape, were under the charge of the farmer McAleer, That is the usual‘ru e when the patients are at work with the tarmer. The farmer always took the charge of the patients while they were working with him, unless an attendant was at work. An escape through the windows ‘took place once, the patient having concealed an iron instrument

under his clothes. I did not see the instrument; I only heard of it. There is always notice given at the police station when an escape takes place. Oliver escaped on the 2Ist, the other a few days after. There are only three

patients that the farmer works with, usually. On this particular day he had tive by my in- struction. Oliver was a good workman. I considered it safe enough to intrust five patieuts in the farmer’s keeping. He had charge of more than three patients on several previous occasions. There was no search made of any woods except those oa the Stock Farm and surroundings.

MicwaeL McA.ceer (sworn) ~1 was at work with Oliver on the day of his escape. I tad five out, and was watehing one Pieno more closely than Oliver. Il was most afraid of Pieno escaping. | was taking the five of them after the cart each time [ loaded. I missed Oliver as I was driving through the woods, and going towards the house with my last load. I returned at once with the cart and four other patients, and after informing them of Oliver’s eseape, went to look for him to the place he escaped. as that was the only ‘oad he would have taken and be unseen, otherwise I thought ke might have been in the bush. I met aman and asked if he had seen the patient on the way to town. He had not. Then I returned and watched the bush until dark and a good while after. liver, when following tae cart, would sometimes keep back, and I would be obliged to stop the horse. He was but a moment out of my sight when I missed him. I was watching Pineau more particularly. I had often more than five patients under my care, I lost two patients before, but I got them again. I could

coax Oliver to follow, but could not drive him ahead of the horse, He did not complain

of hard work. He was talking of his sum and the brain a little before he escaped.

Dr. BLANCHARD, Medical Superintendent (sworn)—I was off the {sland when the de- ceased made his escape. I returned on Fri- day last, the 30th June. There were two other escapes on my return. We organized a regular search in the woods adjoining the Asylum, but discovered no traces of them. Searches had been made previous to my re- turn. The last search was made particularly for a man named Brehaut. Other searches were made every day previous to my return. The Sapervisor also wrote to the friends of the patients in the country, and he heard that one Martin, who escaped, was working at a lime kiln. He was brought back last evening, but we could get no trace of Oliver. The attendants are not allowed to let the patients out of their sight. Myself or the Supervis>r gives permission for the inmates being let out. In my absence the Supervisor takes my place. On going away I left general instruc- tions with the Supervisor. It was under- stood between us that*patients who were at a!] likely to escape should be kept in the yards

There was no mention whatever made of Vliver. Idid not look on Oliver as more than ordinarily likely to go away. None of

them are to be trusted. Oliver was out every day working. He was jast a simple old man. He was not one that seemed to be very desir- ous to escape. He was in No. 3 male ward I think there are no windows barred. They can only be raised four inches. No patient could put his fist through the glass, nor his foot, unless he had his boots ov, There has | been no instance where a patient broke through the sash.

JOHN Dickreson, (sworn)—I was wa'king | through the woods at ‘* Warblington” about | four o'clock yesterday evening, the 4th of | July. 1 found the body of the deceased lying on the broad of his back in a dyke down by | the shore. The feet were crossed, the hands | by the sides. The head covered with his | hat. His coat and vest were unbuttoned. There were no marks on his body or on the ground around him. I came to town and re- ported what I ‘saw at the Police Station.

Dr. Conroy, (sworn)—I performed a post. | mortem on the body of the deceased. [ foind that his clothing was quite wet. There were no marks of violence, except a slight abrasion in the left elbow. The heart was sound and in good condition; the left lung was very much corrupted; the right, normal. The stomach contained about two ounces of fluid; the secretion natura! in itself; the coating o: the stomach about normal, There was some fecal matter in the bowels. I believe that the immediate cause of death was conjestion of the left lung, induced by exposure to cold, fatigue and hunger.

MarsuAt Frysn (sworn)—~I took a team and went to ‘* Warblington ” about six o'clock mi the eveuing of the 4th. I found the de- ceased lying on his back in a dyke in the rear of a bush. He appeared to have been dead a few days. His clothing were all wet. J searched the body for morks of identification.

I was up until |

There were no marks of violyact. Hig fea. tures appeared as if he was asleep. T found 4

They told me he was not an inmate of that institution, I got the Keeper to taxe charge of the body until I could notify the authorities of the Asylum. [ met one of the attendants of the Asylam in the city, and requested him to notify the Doctor.

The jury, a‘ter a short deliberation, re- turned the following verdict:—‘‘That the deceased came to his death through exposure to cold and fatigue.”

The project for a submarine railway con- necting England with France still excites considerable discussion in England. The company who have commenced the work are very tenacious of their scheme, and are defending their right to preseente the work, and have prevented the Government inspector from inspecting the work. A motion has, therefore, been granted in Chancery looking to the prevention of further boring.

A tract of land in Virginia has been pur- chased by a society for promoting emigra- tion from Hungary.
