GOVERNOR SEWARD. -Governor SeWar(l, of New York,
is nOW on a- tour of observation through our manufacturing
districts, the development of which, since his visit to this
Country a quarter of a century ago, strikes him, we believe,
as most remarkable. Mr. Seward on Friday went through
the Town Hall, and two of the most important manufactu-
ring establishments of Leeds.—Leeds diferexry.
The Rangoon Times mentions the loss of the valuable
presents brought from France by the adventurer D'Orgoni
fur the King of Ava. In order to lighten the Alon Prah,
so as to enable her to ascend the river to the capital, they
were placed on board a Burmese boat, along with a spare
engine which the steamer brought out with her. The boat
sank from, the weight; but . some of the valuables were
. .c
recovered, and afterwards sold by auction.
'valued at two lakhs of miles.
THE LAST TIPPERARY Multona.-.--On Wednesday an
inqnest was held on the body :of. Edmond MurPhy„ who
was brutally beaten some days.-previously, and left by his
assailants on the high road, with his brains protruding, and
supposed to be dead. The poor fellow lingered,for some
hours in a state of insensibility. He was herdsman to H. W
Bradshaw, Esq.. of Cappawhite, in the county of Tipperary,
and his offence against.the atrocious Ribbon confederacy was
that a short time previously he prosecuted parties for allowing
their Cattle to 'trespass upon Ins master's land. They were
fined small. sums by the local magistrates; but, ere leaving.
the Sessions Court, an intimation was conveyed to MUrphy
that the trespassers would be revenged. For some days he
was on his guard ; but his neighbours persuaded him the
• cause of anger had blown over. Suspicion has fallen upon-
two young men who have disappeared from-the locality'since
the murder. In their mother's house was found a flannel jacket
and aft:mei marked with blood. Warrants are out for the
arrest of these persons. At the inquest it was admitted that
there were several
,dwellings within sight of the scene of the
, murder, and many of the inhabitants were at home, but not
.one witnessed the deed nor saw anything. to attract their
' attention ! Of six full-grown persons in a house about
thirty, yards away, not one would admit knowing anything
of the murder ; nor was there, after the discovery of the
dying man, any desire manifested to attract the attention of
the police, 'nor afford them information. There are strong
grounds for suspecting sympathy, not with the murdered
man, but with his trarderers, in the locality. The usual
verdict in Such` cases was returned, viz., " That the deceased
was murdered-by some person or persons unknown.",
THE LATE DEATH' BY LIGHTNING.--:-It will be recollected
,that during the thunderstorm on Sunday, the 26th ult., a
poor man named Hudson, in the service of Mr.. Herbert, '
residing at Clapham„ was struck dead by lightning, while
endeavouring to escape the deluging rain by getting
under. one of the trees on Clapham-eommon The deceased
has left a widow' and four children, the youngest
' being 'only three weeks 'old at the time of the calamity. i
Gikat sympathy has been shown to the ' poor woman '
and children by the deceased's master, and also by the , .
inhabitants residing in the neighbourhood. About L25.,0
