ToisONED.-On 'Wednesday afternoon, fuer children of Mrs. Whitting, -widow, living on the outskirts of the corpora- tion of Brussels, the oldest being 12 years of' age, were poisoned by eating • ' 'cl parsnip -which they had pulled from the road side: The eldest, a boy, died about four hours after eating; the second died on Thursday, but some hopes are held out for the other two. The scene was sad to -behold, to see the four little children almost in a steady fit of convulsions. The family are in very poor circumstances. Every pos- si le assistance was rendered the chil- -sir n by medical men and kind neigh - low had found a horse shoe in a fiel near the house, and. took it to his father who was working some distance off. Mr: Robertson told him to take it home and on returning he accidentally fell into the hole. On being missed Mr. Robeet- • son became very anxicnis about the lit- tle fellow, and. diligent search was at 'once commenced, and it was not until after 6 o'clock that he was found by his • father as. above described, life being ex- tinct. The feelings of Mr. Robertson and family can be better imagined than described., It is indeed. a great loss he being the youngest child, and a greet favorite with the family. On the Friday afternoon following his remains were followed to the grave by a large num- ber of sympathizing friends. • • •••" 7-; . MARCIE 291 1878.

At the close of the exa,naination, a large number of very handsome prizes were distributed among thte pupils which seemed to please them very much, as .each pupil according to merit was the happy recipient of a very nice book. The only thing we saw that might cause reflections of any kind was the very small number of visitors present, and especially parents. We think the ma- jority of the parents in No. 1 must eith- er place unbounded confidence in the energy and abilities of their teacher, or are not very particular as to whether they know or not the proficiency of their school, or the progress their chil- e dren Gareoameraiihn COM. branches taught; if they do, we think more of them would have made an ap- pearance at the examination. After the prizes were awarded, addresses were delivered by those present, and all spoke in flattering terms of the standing of the school, and the skill of the teach- er as proved by the works of the day.-- gToinwnthshe ipd.ifferent' THIIPERANCE.-A lodge of the Inie- pendent Order of Good Te-mplars, was organized in the school house in Tipe- rary on Tuesday evening, 19th inst., by Mr. H.
