Towne°, June 20. -Mr, Edward Blake,
before leaving for Murray Bay, sent to the
papers the following letter:
Though I would have preferred to await a
final conclusion before saying anything with
regard to the unanimous invitation of the
Irish party to accept an Irish seat in the
Imperial House of Commons, yet, in view of
its publication and of the many inquiries I
Lave received, it is perhaps better that I
sbould inake a brief statement before leav-
ing for Murray Bay.
On Tuesday last 1 cabled to the effect that
I was deeply sensible of tee high honor clone
me, but feared I was too old and too un-
familiar with the arena to be serviceable;
yet, if it were thought to be in any degree
useful to tbe great cause, I woulct accept a
safe seat, but that I could not attempt a
doubtful or costly contest, aud it
would be rather difficult for roe to start
forthwith; and I requested certain particu-
lars, which I thought important, as to the
time of leaving, and the proposed Seat.
The pressure on the time of the Irish lead-
ers is just now so overwhelming, and they
are ealleil on to deal with so inituy matters
of induitelv greater moment, that an im-
mediate reply to toy euquiry could not
reasontibly be expected; and I have no
further information on the subject.
This is not the time to give reasons for a
decision, which I cannot help sometimes
hoping may after all be ineffective. I may
yet be spared the pain of leavieg Canada,
.Let me say just now that, should it be my
Jot to go,I can be sustained only by the be-
lief that 1 go in the discharge of duty and by
the hope that I may before long •return to
home and friends, SWARD linalts.

LONDON', June 21.-Thomaa Neill was
brought up on remand before Sir John
Bridges in the Bow -street police court to
answer to a charge of attempting to extort
money from Dr. Joseph Harper of Barn.
stable. It is alleged Neill, who claims to
be a doctor and the representative in Lan-
don of G. IL Harvey, a drug marinfacturer
of Saratoga, N. Y., wrote under the name
of :Kerrey thefollowing letter to Dr. Joseph
Harper. •
DEAR SIR, -I have to inform you that
one ot my operators has positive proof that
W, Harper, medical student of St, Thomas'
Hospital, and son of Dr. Harper of Barn-
staple, is responsible for the deaths of Alice
Marsh and Sinevell, he having polamied
these girls with strychnine, This proof you
can have on paying ray hill fur services to
George Clark, detective, of Coekspur-street,
Charing Cram to whom I will give the
proof on his paying iny bill, Yours re-
speafully, Mumeem.
The sinn referred to in tho letter
amounted to 11500. At the previous hear-
ing Clark, the detective, testified that lie
had received a letter signed Murray, read -
Mg thus;
"Dear Sir; If Mr. Wyatt, the eoroner,

of Alice Marsh and Emma. Shrivell, yon can
tell him you can give proof positive that

strychnine, provided be nays yotx well for
your services. I will glee you the proof
when he eomes to oar terms. I will write
yon :intern in a few days. Yours respect-
fully, W. H. Minineve
When the MSS. Was repel -tea it was
thought to be nothing mare than a common
blackmail ease, It subsequently transpired,
however, that the Scotland Yard authorities
reasan to suspect that Neill himeelf hail
poisoned the twogirls. The police also
had a strong suspicion that he was con -
earned in the taking of two other girls,
Ellen Doddsworth and Matilda Clover,
whose deaths are now known to have been
caused by stpchnine. At the inquest on
the body of Ellen Dmitieworth, it was
shown that she had met her death from
strychnine and morphine combined. After
the; deaths of the Marsh and Shrivell girls,
the peculiar eircumstauces ;Mending the
death of the Clover girl were called to
mind and herbody was exhumed for ex-
andimtion. At the hearing to -day evi-
dence was given showing that she, too,
bed been poisood with strychnine.
Great interest is menifested in the
case, and the courtroom was crowded with
curious listeners, inoluding a number of
young girls of the unfortunate class 'to
which the viethns cd the poisoner belonged.
Angers Lewis, who is prosecuting the oast
on behalf of the treasury, produced letters
that Neill had written to William Freder-
ick Smith, son of the late Williain Henry
Smith, who represents the Strand division

liam Henry Broadbent, of 34 Seymour.

Neill made threats against Smith and
Broadbent in connection with the poison-
ing of the Marsh and Shriven girls and at-
tempted to levy blackmail. Mr. Lewis also
produced a letter written by the prisoner
regardieg the death of "the Glo-ver girl.
The prisoner was again remanded, It is
thought a charge of wilful murder will be
made against him.

The best stomach toni4 known to
medical science are so h.4.ppily com-
bined ia Hood's • Sarsaparilla that it
cures Indigestion, and Dyspepsia in its
severest forms, when other medicines
fail. Itt many cases Hood's Sarsapa-
rilla seems to possess a magical touch,
so quick and so gratifying the relief.
Read the following from an aged and
respected citizen of St. Mary's, Ont.:
"I am very glad to ghee this testimonial as
