Still Mr, l Cartwright submitted a resolution to the effect, . "That under these eIrcun stances the House considers that any discussion as to the Route of the In- teicolonial Railroad would not ansa -erg any good purpose, and would greatly prejudice the credit of the Dominion at home ane abroad," which was carried by a vote of 114 to 29.

T T -I E.SEAFOR WROSETE. • (From `our Special Correspondent,) ON Thursday, the 1 3th inst., our usually quiet neighborhood Was thrown into tt state Of great excitement'by an affray between Henry Cleg and Samuel Rae, which resulted in the latter_ stab- bing the former with a knife, near the region of the heart, which was feared would .terminate fatally. The quarrel appears to have arisen about . a field of some tw my acres of -pasture ' land, which Rae had rented last year, and still claims to hold the rightful posses- sion. Cleg thinking' that Rae possessed to -rightful claim- to the land, allowed his- sheep^ and cattle to go upon it ; these, Rae frequently had turned off, and it appears had abused some of them in - so doing. During the dry weather _a portion of the fence was burned, and -tae suspected Oleg or his father of doiipg it. On Thursday morn- ing ' Oleg called upon Mrs. Rae, and warned them not to abuse the cat- tle, or drive teem out any more, and used . some very abusive language to Mrs. Hae, and also made some very im proper threats against her husband. Henry Rae was engaged . in traveling a horse. Mrs. Rae that forenoon sent for him to come 'home, which he did about noon. He went down to the field and drove out the .cattle which were in it. Cleg carne aloof the road from his Lather's place to where Rae was, when an angry altercation took pi we between there. Clcg standing on the, road v ith a knife in .his hand, either whittling, or paring his nails, challenged Rae to fight. Rae drew his knife' from his po.ket, rushed upon Oleg, and stabbed 'him. The affray was seen froma distance, but there was no one near them, - 'Rae shortly after fled, and although he is supposed to be still in the - neighborhood, the authorif es have not succeeded in arresting hi . Medical aid was: immediately sent for to attend the wounded man, who was carried home in a state of great pros- taticn. When the wound was exan - ined, the.knife appears to have struck the bone at the end of the sixth rib and 'glanced, passing through the di- aphragm towards the stomach, inflicting a wound some three or four inches deep. It was thought for some days that . Oleg could scarcely recover-,. . He has been attended by Dr. Swale of Wroxeter, .under whose skilful treat- ment, he is now doicg well, and it is thought will survive. The affray hap- pened on. the boundary line between H.owick and Turnbeiry, about two miles south of Wroxeter. IN Seaford( several excellent ' build- ings are in the course of erection, amongst which are the Roman Catholic Church, Caarm chael's Hotel, the store of Killoran. & Ryan, and the New Post O Fuse.
