THE KANDAHAR RAILWAY. —lf MAD has been Maly
defined by one of the greatest of English writers as the
"minister and interpreter of nature, it is none the less
true that he is on his way to become the conqueror of
difficulties, and the muter of nature, both organic and
inorganic. Thus every tale of daring and perseverance,
of struggle with the elements, of victory over time and
distance, has not only the charm of a romance, but the
value of a fresh title-deed of the dominion of man.
Another story of successful eenfiict,—this time with the
heat of climate, and the barren inhospitality of the desert,
has been that of the completion of the first section of
the Kandahar railway, extending from the river Indus
for ur,4 miles towards the mouth of the Bolan Pass, in
four months from the time of the receipt of telegraphic
order from the supreme Government of India to commence
the underaking.—Ssader.
An Irish priest on the land agitation wi Aes :—" Why, if
the people are indoctrinated with these dangerous
dogmas—' no rents for lands,' 'the land for the people,'
ec. —the farmer of this day will vetZ soon find that his
labourers and servant boys will say, You must no longer
keep this large farm ; lam an Irishmen as well as you' I
have as big a family as you ; I have as good • right to this
land as you ; there is more of my sweat in this land than
yours ; I have only a little cabin and haggard, for
which I pay you three times as much as you pr,mised
to pay the landlord, from whom you have had it
for the last thirty or forty years, and now it is time that
I should get a turn out of it, so stand and deliver." Pay
no rent. Surely the same sentiment applies to all other
contracta. The farmer who acts on this nefarious adv ice
may say, • I won't pay or try to pay my other debta. I
won't pay the bank, or the butter merchant, or the
merchant from whom I got food and clothes, and by
Jingo, I won't even pay the priest."
Tim Lauerrn Poisorriao Cesx—Mr Carter on Friday
resumed the inquiry relative to the death of Thomas
Fenton. aged Pl, late In the Met Regiment of Foot, which
occurred on Saturday last The deceased, who had been
given into custody on • charge of theft, took up • tumbler
and drank thee ntents, and immediately fell fiat on his
fem. and died in three minute. This evidence was given
by his accuser Bertram, but the testimony of the police-
constable negatived it. The coroner's officer produced •
wicket containing cyanide of potassium, which was found
by the landlady of the house in which deceased lodged in his
coat packet. Dr. Lees yesterday stated that he had made
• postmortem examination. The stomach contained a
small quantity of fluid which, from its odour, he expected
WM prussic acid. He found in other parts of the body
evidence of poison. Cyanide of potassium, when mixed
with water, is converted into prussic add Witness was
et opinion that deceased must have taken • very large
quantity of the poison, and he had no doubt death was due
to poisoning.—Arthur Bertram, in answer to the coroner,
said that the deceased was very childish in his behaviour.
When witness accused deceased of taking his clothes he
denied it. He went downstairs and brought a tumbler of
water, which he drank when the constable was in the
room and did soon afterwards. The jury returned a
verdict ofsuicide whilst of unsound mind.
