The former on nearing the town sent in a flag of truce demanding its surrender which was refueed by Dewet, when Paget making a wide turning movement suce caeded in getting hold of the enemy’s most important position—covering the town. This wascarried before dark by the Muneter Fusiliers and Yorkshire Light Infantry. ‘The following morning the attack was continued, and by noon the town was in our possession ead the enemy in fall retreat. “Our casualties were 4 officers and 32 men from Munster’s wounded, Captains MacPherson and Woskes and Lieutevant Conway eeverely, and Lieut Boyd Roch- fort, Scotch Rifles, slightly wounded. | Seven men of the the Yorkshire Regiment | wounded, one killed.

Whitaker, Morine Insurance agent,and une of StJohn’s most prominent citizens, has been taken into custody at the instance of the bank of New Bruaswick, charged with uttering forged paper bearing the name of J. M. Smith, of Windsor, N.S.,8 A. Crowell & Cc., Yarmouth, and Charles D. W. Smi th, Windsor. Whitaker was taken into custody sev- eral days ago at the instance of the bank, but the matter was kept quiet asit was believed there would be a settlement, However the court proceedings now being held make this impossible or at leaet improbable, At first it was said the amouat at stake was ahout $18,000. But day by day thia has been increased, and it is now said the sum of $50,000 will not meet the defici.« encies. As yet Whitaker has not been cailed upon to plead; but it is understood that he will be arraigned this morning. LETTER FROM MR. T. A. McLEAN: The Patriot Floored— Waked Up the Wrong Passenger at Cornwall. Sir,—The Patriot of yesterday calls question iy statement at Cornwall ek. ing and reports me imcorrectly,—not inten- tionally, of course, as it was as near the statement as that paperever got yet to; what had been said during this campaign. What I did eay at Cornwall, was that the removal of Newson’s Hill, at ihis time, was simply Jiighway sorbet, that the ections of Claud Duva!, Sixteen- String Jack and Dick Turpin were gentlemanly and honest compared with the present management of this roadway, as those men manfally and before vour face took the money and only then from the people who were rich,—but the Government were using the highway to rob the whole people. You can cal! it boodling pr what you wi ill. It isnot honest, The statement of the 16 carts is true ;or ifthe Patriot or anybody elee demands thatI eubstantiate this statemens that 16 carts were employed on three chains of acuton ahill, the cut of which is not 30 feet wide, Iam prepared to go into court and prove it, the timekeeper of the job to the contrary notwithstanding, as my witnessese will be greatereven than the timekeeper and more of them, The statement is too true, gentlemen of the Patriot. That is why it was singled out on the eve of the election to prevent this reply reaching the people before the day. I have had similar experiences of the Patriot in days gone by, m civic contests. It always showed the cloven foot the night before the battle. This* statementI can also prove. The fact that my own farmers were employed with horee and cart confirms my statement stil] further of wrong doing —as it is a well known fact that oaly at election times willa Tory cart getany haaling todo. Besides, the men were in- duced to refrainfrom voting by a $25 bribe being held out to them If the Patriot doubts this statement, the proof will be forthcoming. T. A. Macieay.
