But ner : the Lieutenant Governor. exoncerates the aeutenant ern much having the Local Lieutenant Government is very easy. The Governor carried on all the the visit of the } , : _ eorrespopdence relating to Governor General and Princess Louise to} this Island.

Further, there is no hint given that the Local Gov- ernment suggested the letters, or any part of ther, in reply to which Major De Winton that the party would remain on board the Druid. informed the Lieut. Governor Conse: uently, the Local Government clearly had nothing whatever to do with the mis- take or misdirection, by reason of which it happened that the Princess was obliged to rough it on the Druid. The fact is, there- fore, due either to a determination on the part of the Gevernor General, represented by Major DeWinton, not to honor this Pro- vince with the care and entertainment of the Princess, or else _ it due to is No arrived at. other conclusion The Local alleged tardiness or meanness—had nothing what- The reason lies outside the Lieutenant Governor. can = he Government — or their ever to do with it. of them altogether ; and whether it be de- cided that Major DeWinton or the Lieut. - Governor should be blamed, no blame can possibly rest npon the Local Government —unless, indeed, it be shown that they should have formally invited the guests. Now, this, we suppose, would have in- volved communications over the signature of the Provincial Secretary; and would not the Lieutenant-Governor justly feel in- dignant if the distinguished visitors were taken out of his hands? Bésides, where would the Local Governmrnt have asked them to go? to have lodged the Marquis and Princess nithe Province Building, orto hire a house in the town or ask them to go tothe Prem. ier’s house ? What would the Lieutenant- Governor say to such a course? How would he like to be ignored? He would have said, ‘‘such a procedure is withont precedent.

A. Clark, the man who shot Boutiher, the wretch who outraged the little girl at Caribou, N. B., related the particulars of the shooting before the coroner's jury. He said he went where Boutilier was said to be, and first saw him in the woods, sixteen rods away. He waited until he got_within twenty feet of him, when he ordered man to halt. Boutilier re- fused, but moved back, the two facing each other. He was ordered to surrender, but said he would never be taken alive, and stooped down and picked up aclub, The officer urged him te go out tothe road peaceably, assuring him he should not be harmed, but he still re- fused. Boutilier then advanced toward Clark, when the latter fired one shot at the man’s legs. That stopped him for a moment, but again adyancing, Clark shot him, from the etiects of which he subsequently died. The jury exonerated Clark. NS ee Tue storm of Tuesday last appears to have been very severe along the north coast of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. At Baie Verte six schooners and a Norwegian barque were driven ashore, and now lie in bad positions. The tide rose to unusual height and swept away the yreater number of ily kes in that vicinity. A young man named Patrick Me- Donald. som of Kdward McDonald, of St. Jobn was irowned.
