It is learned from an official communication, received from Col. McLeod by the Interior Department, that the bullet passed from the back through the policeman’s shoulder blade and penetrated the lungs. The bullet was from a running-fire Winchester rifle. A trooper writing to Ottawa says that Grayburn was murdered by the Crowfoot band of Blackfeet Indians. neeeniteecabdiagla Aeliionia A WOMAN residing in St. Jean Baptiste Village, near- Montreal, determined to pre- pare a dinner that could not fail to satisfy the most fastidious epicure.

Thinking that ‘one of them felt rather soft, she “took it out. Imagine her unutterable horror at finding that one half-boiled turkey had disappeared, and in its place ner old fur cap had been trembling in the seething water. The thief is still at large, and the property—where is it ? jocieapeialelingiaiinacaiet Tue Patriot, is hasty in contradicting statements in the shipping and local columns of the ExamMINER, whic} ar2 usually correct, — as for instance the itetn regarding the clearance of the ‘‘General Grant’ from Souris. The facts are that the ‘General Grant’ was loaded and cleared by Matthew, McLean & Co., and then the cargo was purchased by Capt. Robert Anderson. The Patriot 1s exceedingly ungrateful in this respect, con- sidering that it, with ail the other papers, is indebted to the Examiner for nearly every item of news-—local or otherwise—which it »yublishes. Ye have not complained that credit is is rarely given Tus Examiner. We have, without a murmur, permitted our com- petitors to partake freely of the facts we daily provide ; and we consider the conduct of the Patriot in the last degree ungrateful. A g 3. LADLEIN Live i } j | ga We Y r : Correspondence, do not hold ourselves responsible for the statements or opinions of our correspondents, a ni ee Cae To the Ediior of the Examiner. Sir;—As burglaries and larcenies are now | nightly occurences, it will be next in order for the thieves to make a raid on the police station. Such a thing, I presume, could be done with equally as much success as that which attended the recent robbery of the market cellar. It would be a terrible thin if the citizens awoke some morning an discovered that one or two of our efficient policemen were carried off during the pre- vious night. Lam strongly convinced that such an undertaking could be effected with- out the thieves ever being detected, judging from the vigilance and fine detective ability displayed by those wide awake gentlemen for the last few weeks. Should such an unfortrnate circumstance occur, it will, no doubt, be *‘ hushed up,” as was done ia a certain case not long ago. t is said that there is no kegs of tobacco in the station just now, to be identified, otherwise the public would be furnished with an item of news something similar to that of some months ago, in which it was reported that a certain thief was successful in obtaining his winter’s supply of twist. Of course, there were no policemen on duty just then, cr he would never have escaped with his booty. Yours, ete., Watca MAN, canis able iliac % Nuisances.

[Dryden. ] When I consider life, ‘tis all a cheat, Yet, fooled with hope, men favor the deceit, Trust on, and think to-morrow will repay ; i'o-morrow’s faiser than the former day ; Lies worse ; and, while it says we shall be blest With some new joy, cuts off what we possess, Strange cozenage ! None would live past years again, Yet all hope pleasure in what yet remain, And from the dregs of life think to receive What from the first sprightly ranning could not give. Trav story of the man who did not detect the butter when he was blindfolded is explod- ed. The judges say: You volunteered te blindfold your eyes and judge of the quality of two grades of butter submitted to you. We drew two tubs of Townships and six of Kam- ouraska, and in only one case was your de- cision wrong. The statement that you ex- hausted your vocabulary of names of different grades of butter is, like the whole article, ab- surd and spiteful. ee A Boe AxorureR Gotp Murve Soxp For $18,600,— Mr. E. F.
