It seems that Traviss, who had been waiting for an opportunity to kill his victim, was riding in Johnson's sloigh with him, wheit he committed the foul deed. He made his escape, but wee_ soon captured, and after being tried by a Coroner's jury, was committed to jail to await his trial.

There was a large at / tendance of buyers, a magnificent show of sheep, and good average prices were rettlized.

The h'a . me( ne year was . £115 fel- a spleudid Alertoun ram, destin- ed for Australia. This is the highest priceithat has yet been -leached. Previous tothis year's sale, f109, the price of one of the Mellendean flock in 1869, had. been the highest sum paid: The average of Lord Polwarth's lots this year was -€30 10s.; that of Miss Stark s, 128 15s. 8d0 The two leading flocs:8 evidently maintained a very close and even com- petition.
