ATTEMPTED MURDER AT MULLINGAR.
A correspondent of the Dublin &press
states that on Saturday night, between
nine and ten o'clock, as a young matt
named Joseph Lynch, a miller, was re-
turning to his house at Kilpatrick, within
a mile of Mullingar, County Westmeath,
and had passed the Test hoose in one of the"
streets, a man jumped from behind a
hedgnor wall and asked him if hereeollect- -
ed tieing anything. He made some reply
and immediately a second man sprangout,
and having', ordered him to walk on,allow-
ed hien to proceed a few yards. He then
ordered him to go on his knees, and when
hedidso, firedat him. The shot took effect in
the thigh, inflicting a wound which places
his hfe in danger. He was found on the
roadside and brought into an adjoining
'house, where he was kept in strict secrecy
and no information of the occurrencesiven
to the constabulary pr magistrates, and it
was only on Sunday night that a suspicion
of something wrong havinghappenedreach-
ed the consta,bulary, and they had Lynch
removed to the infirmary. The only tea
son which can be conjectured for this out-
rage is that Lynch lately left the employ-
ment of one milnowner, and bag beeniate-
ly working in another mill.

The Canadian Fisheries question it at-
tracting a good deal of notice among our
neighbours. The New York World's
'Washington Special' of Monday contained
the following :-
'Senator Patterson is in receipt of &let-
ter from a prominent member of the Cana-
dian Parliament, in which he states that
unless- the claims of that Government to
jurisdiction within the waters contiguous
to i)is coast for a distance of three -(3) lea-
gues front headland to headland, be an-
eedn'cl to, trouble between the two countries
will very probably result. The Canadian
authorities, it will be remembered, claim
that they have the right to exclude our
;
fistiernie from plying thcir avocaqon
within t ree miles of the Canadian coast,
flean a lane drawn from any points which
they may see fit to determine. This:eon-
wrpetionsof the law is denied by the
United States Governmeu kwhich achnow-
ledges the right of Canada to jurisdiction
iri(hin three leagues from land, but in-
sists den the line thane drawn so as to
follow the irregularities and indentations
of ithe coast. Prom the tenor of the letter
in , question it would appear that the
Canadian Government is by no means un-
willing to push this matter to a forcible
issue in ease its demands aro not compli-
ed with ; although, in view of_the parti-
cular relations existing between the Unit-
ed States and England, no great import -
auto is attsched to the implied threat
contained in the letter. Senator Patter-
n:in intends making further inquiries into
the -matter, and, in case of - any new de-
velopments, will bring it up in Congresse
