Bishop Grandin and Father Andre are in Winnipeg, having returned from-their trip to Rome. Father Andre states some things conuetted withthe late. rebellion which have not before been madg public. He re- lates several instances of cowardice on Du- mont’s part. As for the chief actor in the trouble, Father Andre mentioned ‘many in- cidents that oceurred after his trial and lying under sefitencé of death at Regina prison. An offer was tnade Riel by some members of the mounted police force to assist him to make his escape. In the ceiling of the cell in which he was contined was a gtating Open.ng into a log loft which ran the whole length of the building and at the end was a scaffold. A bar i the grating was loose and it was. proposed to Riel that he should -climb up it. by means of a rope’ which they would tet down to him, Temove the bar, and passing along the loft jamp from the seatfold inte the outside enclosure and so @scape. At ‘that time the guard at night was net very strictly ° kepf, and consisted only of four men. | Andther plan suggested to Riel by the sathe persons was that some of his fricnds ‘should entei the jailand verpower,the cuard. Riel d these schemes tg Father Andre, who refused to have anything to do. with ut that probably the intention of those suggésting them was to induce him to fry t and shoot him in the act. This idea struck Riel very for- cibly, and he was ‘horrified at the narrow escape he had, and after that. if his cell door had been left open and the guard re- moved, he wouldn’t have dared to leave his cell on any account.

The “*Sir Francis Levison” of Mr. A. E.

The many friends of our talented visitors will no ‘doubt see that they are greeted with a crowded house on this, their last appearance here for the present.

Dennis -Doyle,, the bar tender for Mr. Jardine, admitted selling the liquor within the time stated in the com- plaint. The counsel for the defence asked to , whom he had sold it, and he replied to the police magistrate, the prosecuting counsel, the constable who served the summons and the counsel for the defence. A fine of fifty dollars and costs was imposed. Objection was taken to the proceeding - that as the police magistrate had been a party to the” violation of the law, he was not competent to try- the case.

Among the visitors were se\ eral re presentatives of the press. One of them, Mr. MacKenzie, of the New Glasgow Easter un -Chronicle, in. the issue to hand last evening, says :— ‘From the time that the Island came in sight till the end of the voyage, all eyes were admiring the beautiful verdure. on the hills stretching back in gentle slopes from the water front, ‘Tbe fields seemed in some places to run. right into the water, and again the red banks would rise gently up, forming a pretty niece of landscape. ‘The dull red color of the soil and the verdant green of the . cultivated elds formed a striking contrastas the steamer moved us swiftly on the seene of the day's sight ‘seeing.

At 7.20 the steamer moved away from the dock, amid the din of music and «heers from boat and wharf. On the re- turn passage many were the.congratulations on the pleasant time spent on the Island, and it was unanimously voted the event of the season. When darknéss came on it was ac- companied by a heuvy fog, which made the outer decks unpleasant. The company pre- sented a tired.out look, and were an excursiou party in every..sense.of the word. Some slept, some sang, some promenaded, some danced, and all hands looked tired generally. The steamer arrived at Pictou Landing about midnight, and the train at New Glasgow at 1 o'clock. It is the universal sentiment of the exeursionists that the citizens of Charlotte- towa, with whom the party came in. contact, treated them well.” The report is brought toa close by the writer paying a well-deserved compliment to the gentlemanly officers of .the St. Law- rence, and congratulating the premoters of the excursion on the- success attending their efforts. } —————a-- ee ee LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. _—_»_—_—— The Methodist Picnic Sir,—Complaints have been madeagainst the managers of the refreshment tent at the Second Methodist Church Sunday School picnic for not making a more substantial preparation for visitors, than was to be found in their tent.

A despatch from Vienna says: Two ladies, aged respectively 62 and 52, committed suicide on Saturday funder the most tragic crrcuuwstances. The» younger of the two was married and lost her husband some years ago. She then begged her elder un- married, sister to live with her. In the course-of time the grief of the widow turned her head, and she became mad and was] placed in an asylum, Last Christmas she was released as perfectly cued. On Satur- day morning the-two sisters teok a cab and drove ‘to the foot of the Kahlenberg, where it arises abruptly out of the Danube. Having dismissed the cab they were seen sauntering along the bank. Shortly after a railway guard saw a female figure floating on the water. He took a boat and suc- ceeded in getting it out. He then dis- covered that a second woman was fastened with cords to the back of the first. The woman onthe top was only unconscious and soon recovered, but the other was dead. While this was being ascertained the woman whe: had beeu saved ran to the river and threw herself in again, but was’ again rescued. The woman saved was the mad sister, her brain, and she has been seat back to the asylum. v Tue following sad accident is recorded | by | the Londen, Qnt., Free Press: “* An East End { man fell down onthe sidewalk the other day and broke his jaw-bone near the shoulder blade.” Tale ate A youne man of St. Frances, Riviere du Sud, County of Montmangy, Quebec, 24 years of age, committed suicide a few days ago by shooting himselfm the head, because a young women to whom he was attached failed-to re Theshock has again effected | Ex- Sehr.
