Tee AvroN Mtreess—Daring the pest week
some additional facts have been brought to light in rela-
tion to this horrible tragedy, which lead to the belief that
the prisoner Baker will loe clearly and conclusively con-
nected with the crime with which which he stands charged.
From a statement made by a little boy, whose parents re-
side near those of the deceased girl, it seems that the de-
tails of the murder are likely to receive a fuller revelation
at the trial of the prisoner than has yet been given. The
boy states that about two o'clock on the day of that:
he was pawing towards the " hollow.," when he the
prisoner leave the hop-garden, his hands and e
saturated with blood, and walk to the brook, where, stoop-
ing down, he washed his hands. He then took a hnudher.
chief from his pocket, and wiped his breast. This wee at
some distance from the spot where the eyeeof the murdered
girl were subsequently found. Prompted by curiosity
the boy, who had been walking a few yards behind the
prisoner, stayed to watch his proceedings, when the
prisoner sternly told him to go home. As he did
not immediately comply, Baker repeated the command,
and, again rinsing his hands in the brook, walked away
in the direction of the turnpike road, a fact which fully
bean out the evidence given by the toll•keeper at the
coroner's inquest. On hearing of the murder the boy
communicated the circumstance to his mother, who, for
some unexplained reason, kept the matter secret until a
few days ago, when, in the course of a conversation at a
public-house, she inadvertently alluded to it, Informa-
tion was given to the police, and the woman and boy
questioned concerning the statement. Acting upon the
particulars related by the latter, Superintendent Cheney
and three policemen dragged that portion of the brook
which had been described by the boy, and which, as it
happened, had not bean previously searched. Nothing,
however, was found, nor was a knife or any other weapon
seen by the boy in the hands of the prisoner. The inci-
dent has revived the excitement at Alton, which had in a
great measure subsided, and the murder is again the sub-
ject of conversation in all circles. The father of Fanny
Adams is understood to be in a very depressed state of
mind. _ _

Tug COAL TRADE AT BIRRENELAIL—At the
meeting of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board yester-
day, a return of the coal traffic at Birkenhead was reed,
from which it appeared that during the past month the
export of coal from Birkenhead amounted to 84,000 tons.
Mr. Forwood, oue of the members of the board, stated that
if the export continued at this rate it would be something
like a million tons in the year, a quantity which twelve
months ago was considered quite fabulous. It might be
satisfactory to the board to know that the coal trade and
the shipowners bad applied their energies to the work.
The quantity of coal passed over the " tippe " belonging to
the board last month was 42,600 tons, agiumst 11,700 in 1866;
so that the increase in the used the appliances of the board
MR as /satiate ctory as the increase of the coal tradegenerally.
He hoped that, in the interview likely to be had with the
railway companies, a decided improvement might be
effected in the arrangements for the coal traffic at Birken-
head. The interview was looked forward to with very
great interest ; and if on the occasion some effort was
nutile to add to the coal traffic at Birkenhead the Lanca-
shire supply, which could eerily be done by the London
and North Western Railway Company, there would not be
any port in the kingdom where a variety of coal could be
had with the same advantage as at Birkenhead. Hs
thought it would he rather to the interest of the company
to bring their coals from the Lancashire aide to Birken-
head than to construct a dock at Gersten.

CANADA AND ER FOREST:4. —The lumber trade of
Canada is of the highest importance, and no country in the
world produces such tine and large timber in merchant-
able quantities. In the forest alone it is estimated that
15,400 men are employed ; and in the partial manufacture
of lumber ever 2,000 mills and at least 10,000 men. At the
city of Quebec about 1,200 vessels are employed, of an ag-
gregate freight capacity of 700,000 tuns, besides 500,000 of
lake and canal tonnage. About 17,000 seamen are engaged
in carrying the products of the forest from Quebec to
Europe, and 8,000 more in its transportation on inland
waters. In New Brunswick, too, there are equally valuable
forests, and which the construction of the Intercolonial
Railwao.y will do much in developing.—Camadion News,
