Irish Affairs,
One of the most sanguinary encoun-
ters of the present Land agitation in
Ireland occurred last Friday night near
Thurles in Tipperary County. The
house of a farmet who was suspected of
paying rent was attacked by about
thirty men, who began firing shots into
the windows and door. Three police-
men in ambushabout the place return-
ed the fire, end the rneu fled, pursued
by the policemen, and followed by a
vigorous discharge of buckshot. One of
the assailants was mortally wounded,
and other § were probably more or less
severely hurt. It will be noticed that
this piece of violence, like most that
has occurred in Ireland. is directed, not
et the agents of the English Govern-
ment, but at the inoffensive Irish farm-
er. This has been one of the worst
features of the land trouble. There ap-
pears to be now some disposition among
the Conservatives to accept the situ-
ration,and turn the Land act to their
• own account by making it still more
radical. Proposals are being framed
which are to conceal a scheme to secure
a general establishment of a peasant
proprietary by buying out the Irish
landlords. This would introduce a far
more sweeping chage than the Liberal
Government proposed when it introduc-
ed the Land Act in Parliament. A de-

resolution palling for, the equalization
of the borough and couuty franchise
showed a majority for the Government
of 59 on this question. In the boroughs,
under the present system, every hotise-
holder who pays poor rates, or every
lodger in lodgings, which would rent
unfurnished for more than $50 a year,
votes for members of Parliament. In
the counties, on the other hand, besides
being a ratepayer, cue must be the
owner of lands worth $25 a year dyer
and above all rents and charges, or
must won lands of the ratable velue
of not less han $65 a year, in order to
be a voter. The counties have long
been the at ongholds of the Conserve,
tive party, nd patting the counties and
boroughs o the same footing in the
matter of qualifioations of electors
would grea ly strengthen the Liberal
party. It i significant that Mr. Gos-
chen, who as supposed to be oppos

Hania-n Wins Again.
The race between Hanlan and Boyd
for £500 a side and the championship,
which has been looked forward to with
so much interest, took place on Monday
at Newcastle -on -Tyne. This time, as
on former occasions, the Canadian justi-
fied the confidence of his backers, win-
ning the race handsomely by four boat
lengths.
Boyd won the toss for position, and
chose the north side of the /liver. At
the start, which was splendid, Hanlan
led slightly. At Redhugh Bridge, four
1 1
and a half furlongs from the starting
point, Hanlan ha 4 increased his lead to
one and a half lengths.
The length of ' the Course is about
three miles, three and onelialf furlongs.
The weather was dull, with light shift-
ing winds, and drizzling rains ,at inter-
vals. An immense crowd witnessed the
1
race.
Hanlan is said to have played with
Boyd. Boyd, at the outset, raised the
hopes of his stipporters, but Haulm,
gathering himself' together, with one
effort placed himself first and fifty
yards ahead. He Maintained the lead,
from one to fouri lengths throughout the
race, occasionally playing with Boyd,
and won by fourilengths.

A special despatch to the Globe,dated
Winnipeg, April tai. says:
A train with 890 emigrants, including
Mr. Bengough, 'oartoonistof Grip, is
frozen in three miles from the nearest
•source of 'supply. Provisions are being
carried by a relief train. It will be
three or four days before the train can
be get out.
Captain Kirwati, who returned. partly
on foot and partly by sled, gays a man
' is dying in the triin. It was piteous to
hear the little chiildren oryik for bread
during the night. One barrel of biscuit
and one cheese were discovered on
board and dealt out. There is no danger
bf starvation, but fuel and light may
give out.
On the St. Pan line, near' Crookston,
five miles of the ' oad are ubmerged,
and there is no sign of traffic beingtre-
Burned. Floods ire expected out West
if the thaw to -da Y continues. It is ncit

The Tomato Worm.
1.
The tomato worm, according to the
entomologists, is ouch a greedy feeder
that it changes its skin three times to
itdmit of further apacity for gluttony,
and when transfo, med into the fully
developed insect-tevery tissue and fibre
of which is comOsed of tomato leaf—.
it instinctively diEitinguishes its favorite
forage afar off by sense of smell, and
the larger the plantation the farther it
it may be scented,

MILLINERY
SHOW ROOM OPENING
— A
HOFFMAN BROTHERS'
On Saturday, April 8.
Our Millinery will be ready for in-
spection, commencing on the above
date, for the Spring and Snminer Sea-
sons 1882.
We will not blow' our horn to the
tune that we are ahead of everybody
else in every line and article, and that
no one elde could succeed as well as we
have insecuring goods, because com-
mon settee teaches us, and every ra-
tional being, that with ready cash and
an experience of the business (knowing
what the trade requires), one man can
do as well as another; therefore, we
leave the blowing to those who could
not live over one season did they not,
in some way or other, empty themt
selves of their inflated egotism. All we
ask of the ladies is to call and examine
the styles and prices, and we will be
satisfied al to the results. t
Our stock of DRESS GOODS,
PRINTS, COTTONS, SHIRTINGS,
DENIMS DUCKS, FANCY GOODS,
&c., &c., will be found equal, if not in
advance, both as to quality and price,
of former years, to which we call par-
ticular attention.

CAMPBELL & SMITH,
-
(SUCCESSORS TO SMITH & WEST,)
Have purchased the entire etosk of the late firm of SMITH & WEST, con-
eisting of
Dry Goods, Gents' Ftvrnishings, Ready-made Clothing, Eats and -Caps.
Boots and Shoes,
And have bought in addition a large stock of Staple and Fancy Dry Goods,
which will fully sort up and make it one of the 1210St attractive stocks in Sea -
1
forth, and complete in every branch.
•••
This stock was secured at a great reduction below cost, and enables us to
sell customers goods for less than othernmerchants buy them, and make a profit.
A special effort will be made to clear out all the Ready-made Clothing, as
we intend to give up that branch of the business, and will offer $2,000 worth at
much less than the original cost.
The business will be 'conducted on a strietly CASH basis, and only one
price, giving to each customer full value for their money, as we will not be com-
pelled to add to the price to make up losses incurred by the credit system
This is a very important matter for purchasers to consider.
The Vtisiness will be carried on at the old stand, No. 3, Campbell's Block,
under the management of the junior partner, Mr. 3. A. Smith, who will be.
pleased to see all the old customers and as many new ones as will favor us with
their patronage, and will not consider it any -trouble to show goods or quote
prices.
