The top of the skull was crushed in as if from some blunt instrnment, and a small hole in the side of the head might have been made, it is thought. by a bullet. The dis- covery created a sensation, and conjectures are rife, but no clue as to the identity of the yemains ig forthcomjng. Some old residents of the place connect the mystery with the ais- »ppearance nearly 60 years ago of a man named Williams, and the skeleton appears as if it had been in the ground quite that length of time. saasiieliapleiants Two Cases Dismissep.—Judgment was given by the Supreme Court of Canada, yesterday, in two appeals from Prince Ed- wtrd Island; Tha appeai jin | Trainor ‘vs. Black Diamond S.

Tus entertainment under the auspices of the Emerald Branch of the Benevolent Irish Society, in their hall at that place last evening, was, in the opinion of those present, @ decided success. The hall was thronged, aud the audience enthusiastic. Mr. George R, McMahon presided. The mme was a lengthy one, occupying some three hours in its rendition. The performances of the ‘* Summerside Noisy Boys,” and of Messrs. W. F. Clarke, P. Fiahavin, James Hickey, F. P. Murphy and A. M. McKay were exceedingly amus- ing, while Jerry Noonan’s clog dance “brought down the house.” The instrument. al music was also good. Hon, D. Ferguson s address was short and pointed, and well veceived. He referred to his visit to Ire- land in 1886, and gave a brief sketch of the olitical situation there at that time, also roahine upon the Home Kule agitation as affected by the Parnell-Times case. The amount realized was between $40 and $50. New Fancy Spring Suitings and Trouserings would be done.

MonrreaL, March 18. Archbishop Fabre has just addressed an important circular letter to his clergy de nouncing the action of several of his priesis who, during His Grace’s absence, have been writing letters to L’EHtendard, approv- ing of that paper’s political and religious course. The Monsignor says that the paper in question has been sowing discord and going against the wishes of the Bishops of the Province. The Archbishop also, while in the parish, asked Louis Viuillot, editor of the great clerical organ, to procure for the future his information Canadian affairs from the Pishop’s ducal, instead’ of from the sei disarié iltramontane school of religious thought in this country. The “Globe” Condemned. Torowto, March 18. The Globe's advocacy on Saturday of the disallowance of the Jesuits estates bill is still the talk of politicians.

P., one of the board of direc- tors of the Globe, writes to it disapproving of its position, affirming his belief in the constituionality of the Jesuit state act, and declaring that the only question for the Liberals to ask is whether the Quebec legislature had theright to pass such a measure. ; 1 RE The Union of the Cities.
