Brydges has rec ived the appointment of Land Commi sioner of the Hudson's Bay Company. -About half -past 4 on W dnesday afternoon Charles Moore a p inter by trade, entered the Royal Hot 1, Inger- soll, where Reuben Smith, hostler, iyassittting in a ehair apparent y asleep. Moore threw Smith from the hair and kicked him once or twice in he face, killing him instantly. Moore i a young man about 25, and Smith wa an old inoffensive man probably 50 years of age. Moore was under the in uence of liquor at the tirae, and it is thought had some old. grudge agains Smith. Moore was promptly arrested. -A very serious and fatal ceident, which resulted in the death of Sebas- tian Kammer, took place on lot 31, 3rd eoncession of Wallace, OD the 15tli inst. It appeers that Mr. Kammer, along with several others, on that day was working in the woods, and while a tree with a dry top, which he was cutting down was falling, it partly lodged against another tree in its descent, cansing the latter to spring back, from th.e force of the blow, and threw back, with tre-' maidens force, a number of the limbs of the felling tree, which had 'peen en- tangled in its top. One of thee limbs struck Kammer on the head and he died almost immediately. fis com- panions picked him up after tjhe acci- dent, but, with the exception o opening and closing his eyes a few timer, he ex- hibited no signs of lite. -The other day an accident f a very serious and severe nature occ rred to Mr. Wm. White, a young ma living about two miles west of laver n. Mr. White went to his woods to c t cord- wood, and while cutting down a tree it lodged in the branches of ano her tree adjoining. He went forward t relieve the lodged tree when it slipped off the stump, striking him on the le above the knee with such force as to ive his leg into the ground. The injur d man being alone and entirely uuabh th ex- tricate himself, his position wais a very painful one. Happily for him, how- ever, his cries were heard by some neighbors, wt.o had to cut the -tree into several pieces before they could relieve him, when it was found that the entire leg was crushed in a shocking manner. At latest accounts the injured man was doing well, and it is now expected that the limb may be saved. -A telegram from Winnipeg dated Wednesday says: A letter from Patrice Breland Cypress Hills, dated ebruary 22nd, reports that Big Bear, tie Cree chief, had seized the goods of al trading party near the forks of the ed Deer and South Saskatchewan riv rs, and that on the complaint ot the cwner to Major Irvine, that officer, with fifty men of the Mounted Police, had start- ed to arrest Big Bear, who avows that - he will not be taken. The chef sent messengers with tobacco to all the par - rounding bands of Indians, evei across the frontier, inviting them to join him in force for the purpose of making a demand on Gov. Laird for three things, which the letter does not mention, with threats of repossessing the country and excluding the whites if they are not granted. The letter adds tha all the buffalo are south of the fron ier, and. that great destitution prevails among the Indians and the Metis. -On the night of the 24th in t., some generous person called on Mr. Robert Holmes, who is tenant on kr. arish's farm in the west end of the cor oration of Mitchell, about midnight, kya eked at the door, and on being asked w o was there made the request th t Mr. Holmes shouldspeak to him at the door. Mr. Holmes opened t e bolt, but undertook to strike a light before entering on an interyiew. W ile he was getting his lanap lighted, a bundle was passed in at the door, and t e per- son ran off. Mr. Holmes look:d after the person, who was making ti cles as fast as possible towards the roa . On inspecting the bundle he twin it to contain a healthy female chil , about two months old, supplied with lothes, nursing -bottle, &c., and a bdl,t doux pinned to its garments, requesti g that it should be tenderly cared for. -Mr. R. W. Currie left Mitc1helI on Monday morning for Manitoba where be intends to spend the sumruer pro- specting with a view to settling there. On Friday evening, prior to his depar- ture, a number of his friends net him at the residence of Mr. W.
