A SMALL BOYS MORNING.
First I thought I'd dig a well,
And so I took my spade,
An underneath the apple tree
A deep round hole I made.
Bub though I worked like anything
'Till I was stiff and lame,
I found I couldn't have a well,
Because no water came.
Then I spied a little bird ;
It lay there just as dead I
And eo, without another word,
I dug a grave instead,
I put poor birdie in a box,
And hid it in the ground,
And heaped the dire above it olos5
And planted flowers round.
Bird -funerals are lots of fun—
Of course, they're very sad 1
When I had covered up the bird
An appetite f had.
3 ate a plate of gingerbread,
Some bread-and-butter too,
And then I hurried out to find
Borne other things to do.

duce more real suffering than the great

County Crown Attorney McFadden, of
Brampton, on Saturday received a tele•
grant from the Deputy Minister of Jus-

carefully gone over the evidence produced
at the trial of MaoWherrell, and the re-
port of Justice Ferguson, the presiding
judge, and saw no reason why a new trial
should be granted. He will consequently
be hanged on Oot. let, to which date be
had been reprieved, MaoWherrell was
originally sentenced to be hanged on June
let last. T. 0. Robinette, his mournful,
soured a number of affidavits from wit
neeses who did not testify et the trial,
and the Cabinet not having time to go
into the merits of the case, owing to the
fact that Parliament wag in session,
Judge Ferguson, under the provisions of
section 937 of the Criminal Code,' 1892,
reprieved kfaoWherrell until Oot. let, ex.
presely pointing out in the statement
given by him to the press that the re•
prteve was merely to give time for full
consideration of the ease, and that no
inference was to be drawn therefrom as
to the ultimate decision. ' The prisoner's
counsel will now endeavor to secure a
commutation of the sentence of Mao
Wherrell to imprisonment for life, bat
there is little probability of bis efforts
being sucoessful.
