On Tuesday :u •ruing all i quest was held et the Gaol uy on,u t 'McLean and a jury, up.0 tine body of George Whittaker, of Brussels, who had been committed for insanity on Sunday, June 26th. Deceased who had reached the allotted three score and ten, had become violent- ly insane, refused nourishment of any kind, and when opportunity uttered, beat his heal against the iron tsars of his cell, thereby inflicting injuries to 'the scalp, and causing loss of blood, from which together with the gradual breaking up of the system incident to a person of his advanced years, he succumbed on Monday evening, July 4th. The following is a list .f THE tORGNRH.a Ji. NV. Prisoners -Samuel Noble, James Whit- ting, Peter Shea, Matthew Matheson, Thomas Landon. Citizens -Geo.

L. , sworn- - On 3londay, June 27th, was inf..nuud that deceased had injured his held, and sent word to Dr. McLean regarding it; arrived at the gaol, and found a 'scalp woun 1 about au inch and a Loaf 1.•u;g, which,was dressed, s'ute time after was informed that deceased had again in- jured himself;this time the wound to the scalp es.endad setae throe or four inches :slid part .f the iuttguueut, about an inch square. was taken c..mpletelc off by the Lars w►:h whi,h the Mead had come ill e'ntact; the woulids were dressed and attended to . daily; gave what medicine 1 considered necessary to patient, and ordered nuurishtuettt in the shape of situp, milk, and latterly. as -he grew weaker, a little stimulant; deceased almost absolutely refused to ta'.e wedi cine or nourishment and grew weak, being further reduced by loss of bloxl; believe deceased was insaue, and while under maniacal influbnce, inflicted the wounds from which, combined with ab- staining from nourishment, and the natural decay of age, he succumbed on M(mday. , - Deceased was attended to carefully and well nursed during his illness by the officials and inmates .of the gaol; all the influences tended to hasten his death; deceased might have died from con- cussion of the brain, but the scalp wound would not have caused death. Wm. Dickson, Gaoler, sworn -Am keeper of the gaol: the deceased Geo. Whittaker, was received into gaol on the 26th of June; on the evening of the 27th he first showed violent symptoms; he stripped himself naked, and dashed him- self against the grating ..f the ward; three prisoners were in the ward with him at the time; I happened to look int, the ward and saw him naked; i went to place -hint in his cell, and 'while doing so, deceased struck himself against the grating; the • act was so sudden it could not be hindered; placed deceased in a cell with two prisoners, instructing the latter to see he did no rurtber viutence to him- self: then went and brought Gaol sur geon; the turnkey Was absent at his tea. at this time; his wounds were dreamed; he was put into a straight jacket, and then 'placed 111 the lunatic cell for the night? shortly after 8 o'clock went to see how he was, and found Ilio standing on the Hour, apparently all right; shortly afterward 1 was called by the turnkey, and found that deceased had dashed him- self againstthe grating, and was bleed- ing profusely frost the head; we at once removed hint from the cell to the Ward, got the- gaol surgeon again, had his wounds dressed, and watched him in- cessantly from that time until he died. 'Until Friday there was no apparent .change, but at that'time he seemed to ice losing his violent temper. and became weaker, and continued to sink until he died, shortly after 7 o'clock lest (Monday) evening. Deceased was about 70 years of age. He refused food from the time he was brought here. He was com- mitted for insanity. Witness and turn- key took night about watching deceased, and were each assisted by a prisoner; do not think the injuries he received hastened his death. There are no ap- pliance about the gaol for the proper aecurind of lunatics from injuring them- selves, with the exception of straight jacket and handcuffs; these latter are not sufficient for the purpose. Tac .h Schwalm, sworn, -Lived in the town. ip .f Hay; am a farmer; saw deceased when he first came in, and have seen him at different times since; he was a little wild when he first came in and gut steadily worse; on the scc:nul day-, 31. nday 27th, he became came violent, and dashed himself against the grating; 1 was present with two others at the time: scald not prevent his action; he wee removed to a cell specially for lunatics; on Monday night I was Called to stay with the turnkey to watch him. 7'. a juror - We watched him se he could not hurt himself more.

Whittaker cams to his death on the eveniu of the 4th of July at the Coututon (la 1 of the County of Huron, situate in the nofGoderich, in the said County of H on, while con- fined as a lunatic, from gradual decay, due to the debility of old age, refusal of food, and the loss of blood and other etf is of injuries of the head inflicted on hi It while so confined in said Coalment. 1, and that the said jury are of .pillion that a padded nom should be provided for such insane prisoners, and that such • room would probably have prevented the said deceased from in- flicting un hiutself such injuries, and the said jury further say that the said de- ceased received proper care and treat- ment at the hands of the officials of the priwu, as far as the appliances at their disposal would allow." At the close of the inquest the jury thanked the coroner for the gentlemanly and courteous manner in which he had presided at the inquest, and for the able way in which he had explained the different points in connection with the death of Whittaker. The coroner thanked the jury, and said that they had, to his mind, rendered a verdict in accordance with the facts elicited. t otRssbns Rates. COLLMBU$, 0., June 29.-A light rain thismoming laid the dust and made the ride to the Columbus Driving Park more enjoyable to -day. There was a cool breeze, Inoreover, all the afternoon, and the occupants of the carriages on the quarter stretch scarcely needed theirfans The attendance was a decided increase till yesterday, au.l the pool sellers drove it brisk trade on the events of the day. The presence of the mem- bers of the Supreme Court, who occupi- ed carriages under the hill at the quar- ter stretch, did not seem to prevent the sale . d tickets, and many dollars changed hands on the result of the day's events The track, in the technical sense tit the word, could be called heavy. It was by ' no means sluggish. uh however, as the tiw e showed. The Judges were Amos Eber- j lv, Huffman and W. H. Weat- water. and the timers the same as yester- Ida. 2:21 t•:..a-,. The first swot of the day was the•2:21 class for a purse .f $500. Lucy, Puw- ers, So Se and Irene started. The bet- ting was about three to one on Lucy. The I horses got off promptly, with Se So in the • rear of the other three. Lucy left her lfeet ..n the turn and lust a length before ithe settled down to work-. Meanwhile I Irene and Powers had abet to the front, the fanner in the lead. Lucy was after , then like a streak, however, and collared them Iioth at the half,which was reached I in 1:11, and the trio were off down the back stretch like foxes, So So doing her best to push her nose past the favorite's shoulder. They came down the turn in the same magnificent manner. Lucy win - nibs( by a head in 2:231; So So second. Powers carte to the front of the begin- ning of the second heat, and nursing the rail closely, cut out the work for the par- ty. while So So and Lucy were following closely behind. So Su was doing his best, while the favuritewasleft in the rear and the half showed So So a full length ahead of the entire party. It was Lucy's chance to come to the front, as elle al- ways could when she tried, and three- quarter pole found her at So Sus wheel with Powers close behind. Lucy gained a length at the corner, and -res an evi- dent winner. All eyes were, therefore, turned to Irene, who had gained her feet and was putting in her best licks, for se- cond place. She won it too, amid cheers, by the best piece of work done during the day. Lucy•s time was 2:23k It was evident that if Irene could re- t this performance she would give the favorite a hard rug for ffirtt money, and the friends of the little gray were an- xious she should do so. The ).ace she struck at the send-off was encouraging, but she left her feet on the turn, and Lucy trade a clean cut for her old place at thetront, and held it manfully to the three-quarter pole, when So do callared her and pushed her hard, but without avail. Lucy won the heat and the race in 2:23. --{Cleveland Leader. Onbtlra. The Sacrament .f Lords Supper was dispensed in Knox Church here on Sab- bath last. The Presbyterian Church here has been' whitewashed and painted inside, and now presents a comfortable appear- ance.

The pio-nit held in connection Frith this society. on Dominion Day, at the Maitland Falls, adjacent to the village, was the most successful of the seaaon- The day was delightful, the gathering from the village and vicinity was largely augmented by visitors from the neigh- boring towns and villages. The arrange- ments utade for amusement in the way of music, croquet, swinging, etc, were ample, and the natural advantages of the grounds for promenading, fishing, etc., being unsurpassed, all combined to snake the time pass away in avery agree- able and sociable manner. Towards evening addresses logical and entertain- ing were delivered, for the good of the order, by the Rev. J. A. Turnbull, B. A., and Mr. D. McGillicuddy, of Tits Ho- ao.

The pastor, Rev. Mr. Grant, assisted by the Rev. Messrs. McQueen and Sutherland, of Ripley, presided. The services in English were held in the church, and that in the Goalie in an adjoining grove. Very large crowds were in attendance at both placed. IMteeovENTNTS.-Mr. Young has seve- ral men busily engaged in erecting alt addition to his hotel. The department, which is being put up behind the bar - roost, is intended for a dining room and dwelling, and will greatly enhance the extent of the hotel and give it a much larger and more roomy appear - 'once. :Ir. Howden, our energetic butcher, has also been abreast of the times this summer, in building a new kitchen and enlarging and improving his slaughter house. A neat and comforta- ble little dwelling house has been erect- ed by Mr. Johnston on Navigation et. Our village is improving quite rapidly this summer. Diminion Day passed off very lively iu our usually quiet and prosperous vil- lage. The principal element in the day -•s sport, was a match game of base ball between the Dungannon and Kin - tail clubs. The victory was won by the Dungannon boys by nine runs. The score steed 21 to 30. The Kintail club did( extremely well, considering the chance they had, as they only organized about a week before the genie. All they require is a little more "grit.' and prac- tice to make then capable of competing with any of the surr.tunding clubs. Af- ter the game was over, both sides ,parch- ed to the hotel, where an excellent sup- per awaited them, which was prepared by our efficient hostess, Mrs. Young. The (..sing side defrayed expenses. The remainder of the day was spent in athletic sports and dancing. T1s Ottawa Regatta. The fifteenth anniversary of Confed- eration of the British North American Provinces was celebrated at Ottawa in rand style. The presentation of $ rpaas- the gold chain and address was made to Hanlan at the City Hall, in the presen- ce of fnlly 12,000 people, by Mayor Mac- kintosh, in behalf of the citizens of Ot- tawa The great event of the day was of course the boat race, for which the entries were: -Rosa, Ilaudaur, Hosmer, Teneyck, Riley, Trickett, McDonald, Schaefer, and Smith.

Although the deputations were received must ourdtal- ly the result of their miseiun was not very satisfactory. Mr. Hickson an- nounced that the Directors and Share - holden of his Company are opposed to expending any more money in the oon- structnas of branch lines and gave them to unde ataud that the only conditions upon which the nompagy could think sof naaniug such a branch would be if the pimple wuuld build it at their own ex- pense. This intormatioa lead, of course, a disappointing effect upon our citizens, bet they have not yet abandoned all hope of having railway competition. Dominion Day was celebrated here to -day. In the forenoon a lacrosse match was played -Era ter vs. Clinton. Exe- ter won by 3 to 1. The horse races commenced at 1 p.m., and were well at- tended and were a success.

A great sensation was created in this village by a case of alleged child murder coming to light. The facts are as ful- lows:-A girl named Rebecca McMinn, was charged before Mr. F. Wilson, J. P., with concealment of birth, and the girl acknowledged the fact, and said the child would be found buried in a grave- yard a few yards from her father's house. A constable and an assistant, on making a search, discovered the body only eight inches below the surface, in a wooden box without a cover. Coroner McMich- ael at once mpanelled a jury, and an in- quest was held in Buschert's Hall. Dr. McKelvey, after havingmad a post mortem examination of the body, said in his opinion the child had been born alive. He found a ball of cloth in its mouth, which was sufficient to cause death by strangulation, also marks of violence upon the body. Some witness - ,es were examined, relatives of the girl, but nu evidence of any moment was adduced, as all professed to know noth- ing of the matter, although living in the same house with the girl. The prisoner made a statement to the effect that the child was born on the morning of the 10th ult., that she was alone, and that the infant was born alive -the plug of cloth was put into its mouth to keep the dirt out, and that she took the body out and buried it without any assistance. The jury returned a verdict to the effect that the otuld came to its death by the hands of its mother, who was imsnediate- ly placed under surveillance and . remov- ed to Goderich gaol in charge of a con- stable.
