The examination of the charge of wil- fully murdering Mrs. S. L Howes was resumed by the Attorney:General this afternoon. 3 were Annie Phillipine and Eugene Phil- lipine, sister and brother of one of the pri- soners. Miss ‘Phillipine’s testimony greatly strengthened the case against Trafton as the one who fired thé fatal shot. She told her story mm. a .manner that’ deeply impressed ~all hearers. On Saturday night, when her -brother went out to catch some fish in the pool from which he was driven by Major Howes. Miss. Philli- pine swore that there was not a mouthful of food im the house... She reproached her- seif for not preventing her brother from Joining in the attack on Mijor Howes party though she believed it was only their in- tention to souse them in the river. When the sheriff went to Phillipine’s the family were actually starving, and yet only a few years ago they were in affluent circunistan- ces in England. Miss Phillipine is highly educated and lady-like in her deportment. The examination will be continued to-night and then adjourned for some days, pending the arrival of Howe’s Indians, who are now some distance away. To-day’s evidence bears very strongly against the accused. Canada Defended. Orrawa, Aug, 30. Sir John Thompson, in his address at Hagarsville yesterday, strongly resented Mr. Laurier’s charge of unfriendly treat- ment of Yankee fishermen. He said the United States chose themselves to go back to the treaty of 1818; and its pro: isions were being enforced. There was nothing unfriendly in that conduct. In seizing American vessels, Canada was-not harsh. She was borne out by the support of the British Government on enquiry into every case. The President’s message was an_inter- ruption to the unrestricted reciprocity cam- paign. It led the people to believe that the policy of the development of the coun- try, of making it a united nation from the Atlantic to the Pacific, was a much better policy for the country than to hand over its destinies to a people who were ready to sacrifice them to their own political exigencies.

Srr,—From every quarter we hear favor- able reports concerning it, the weather per- fect, the horses beautiful, and working with machine-like regularity ; the drivers skill- ful and honest, the course and stand very suitable—save the latter, might safely be enlarged ; the sobriety, discourse, and good behaviour of nearly 10,000 people, drawn together from all parts of P. E, Island, the absence of drunkenness, gambling, rioting and murder, and the very quiet manner of betting (indeed, its searcity was marked.) —all these cheering circumstances tend to make yesterday a red-letter-race day for P. EB. Island. Naturally, our minds, from astonishment at such unlooked-for results on a race course, (often notoriously the re- verse) begin to wonder and try to account | for these phenomena; and our optical powers are brougbt into play, and scanning | the crowd with a double-million, magnuify- | ing miscroscope—a la Sam Weller—the stalwart forms of well known temperance | officers, church members, Sunday school} -teachers and superintendents. cross our! fiel€ of vision, and lo! all mystery ceases, | gal things puzzling to ordinary humanity | are at urnce resolved intu crystalline clear- | eet Cons oy Saree. 2X AMINER, The chief witnesses examined d HOTEL ARRIVALS.
