On opening a box car ot train for Bos- ton, last week, at tiV inds 4', Vt., it was found that' of the one -hundred and twenty five lambs confined therein; and on the wag• to market, only four were alive. One h un- clred and twenty one lambs, crowded into a tight car on a hot day, had been cruelly smothered to death. A man named. George Jeffery employed in the oil iefinery of Messrs. Lawson & Vi- vian, Petrolia, was found dead in his bed on TEutsday morning last. On retiring to bed the previous evening, he complained of not feeling quite so well as usual, but no- thing dangerous was apprehended. On Saturday last,'at noon, the Ship La- borers Benovolent Societyparaclecl the streets of Quebec, headed by the Hibernian band in green uniforms. The 9th battalion band also walked. In their progress they saluted the President of the Hibernian Society, Mr. O'Farrell, who hung out the " sun- burst." During the storm, as Mr. -J. C. Small, of Strathroy, was m the act of helping to car- ry a trunk into Mr. Rothwell's residence, a flash of lightningstruck the trunk, shatter- ing it to pieces, and scattering the contents in every direction. Mr. Small was slightly affected by the electric stroke, but suffered 110 serious in jut y, though it is evident he had a very providential escape. The Orangemen in numerous places, on the 12th of July,, denounced the Ottawa Government, on account of its Manitoba Bill and its general policy with reference to the Northwest. At Ellengowan, near Paisely. after giving three_m:ost enthusiastic cheers for the Queen, they joined in three hideous Hisses, says the Bruce Recon), against Car- tier. The body of a boy of about fourteen, whose name could not be ascertained, has been found in a brook near Belleville, where • he was bathing; and the coroner's jury return- ed a verdict of "found drowned.' The -boy was supposed to belong to Belleville, and had Sabbath School tickets in his pockets,em some of which was the name "J. Niles," and on others the initials "T. W." Speculators have been purchasing buffalo robes from Indian tribes : that have been suffering from the small -pox. The robes infected with the dreadful disease have been sent to the East and have been widely dis- tributed. A large quantity of the robes have been seized, and energetic measures have been taken to stop the further trans- portation of 'le poisoned furs. Saturday night and Sunday heavy thun- der storms prevailed in different parts of the Province, and in Montreal. The de- struction of propeity was considerable, and so far three lives are reported lost -the two children wh o were killed by lightning at Port Huron, opposite Sarnia, and a man who was run over at Lachine by a train of cars set in motion by the gale. There were several narrow escapes on land and water. • IUD ONE LILY 29, 1870. Z.00 01.TT POS J. to 1 28 to 129 to 1 50 to 1 40 to 0 to 0 44 to 0 00 to 0 18 to 013 55 AINS! 00 JUST EMBRACING THE.
