Cyprus has lead a most eventftd his-
tory, and more masters, it is said, than '
any other corner of the earth. It is sup-
posed to have been peopled by the de-
scendants of liattint, Noah's great-
grandson, from the 118.ane still preserved
of One .of its ancient cities. It is re-

Bearding the Lion in His' Den.
Dr. Sloan has issued three beets to
the electors of North Huron. First a
circular, .then a- statementof figures
purporting to be a tree accou:nt of the
position of affairs in the Dominion,
and lastly, a sheet 'heeded. "Mr. Far -
row's Acts as a Legislator." Now, I:
wish tosay to . the 'electors of North
Huron, if Dr. t loan 1 wants to deceive
and lie his Wig into Parliament (strong
language. I know), I: do not, and he
will findethat such a course will fail
him. As these sheets, have been sent ,
generally to ConserVatives and -Re-
formers alike, withoto doubt, the ex-
press purpose of deceiting the electors
(for I cannot conceive the Doctor is so
ignorant of public affairs), I ' want to -
state that I challenge Dr. 'Sloan to
meet me at any central place in the
Riding, say Wiughatn, Brussels, or
Blyth, and if I can't prove that in every
circulat there are more or less falser
hoods couched therein the last one no
less. than 20, I will re,sign. Now, Doc-
tor, face the music, or actthe coward,
whichever you choose.: Name the day,
place and hour, and I will be on hand
• (D. V:), and resign if I den't prove
what I say. This is fair. Is it not,
electors? ' Such Feckless,. untruthful
and deceptive statements I never saw

George Smith, a farmer, and James
Smith,. his eldest son, a young man
t,.1 about 21 years of age, went from the
house between two'and three o'clock in
c.4 theenorning to attend to their fa,rm
• duties.. They had been absent but a -
short time when the young man return-

of the family to get up. . He then went
.. to the bedroom occupied be his two sis-
• ters, young women, and attacked one
with a wooden pump handle, which he
brought in -with him,.cutting frightful
1 gashes on her head., and badly hurting
her arms, which she put up to shield.

e sister a few blows, and she fell or tlirew

bably thinking he had done so,
he turned his attention to a young

James. ,` The young brother got poses -

• A later and more explicit account of
the tragedy is. that yeung Smith went
to Ins sisters' room tome time in the
night; and stole the key of :his father's
money box from a striug of keys which
were around the oldest girrs hbd.y. He
stole the money, and put the key back
in the bed, and upon the giri turning
over in the bed, -shortly afterwards, she
felt thekey, which awakened her, and
sespected what had. been done, as they
had expected he would attempt' the
theft. She then got up and toldher
father something was wrong, as the
string had been cut from her body. Her
father then got up and went to the
son's roone and accused him of taking
the raoney. They both then went down
stairs and had. some words, the old
man threatening to have his son ar-
rested. if he did not give up the money.
The latter gave up a part of the money.
The father then procured. a halter and
started. for the field to get a horse to go
to Siracoo, saying he would put a stop
to this kind of work. The son. followed
• him up a lane at the back of the barn,
and. there murderedhim with a 'Club
about two feet six inches long, which he
had prepared the evening before from
an old pump handle, and which the
gir s saw himcutting, not knowing for
what purpose. Efialubsequent actions
are correctly detailed in the first re-
port. The old man was forty-nine
years of age and highly respected.
An'inquest was held this afternoon
on the bodies of George and James:
