THE LORD•LIEUTENANT'S LEVEE.—DUBLIN, Wednes
day,_The levee at the Castle yesterday was extremely
well attended. The Earl of Carlisle seems to have caught
that popularity, of which it is believed he is overmuch
desirous. When the levee terminated, his Excellency,
accompanied by Lord Seaton, the Lord Chancellor, and
the officers of the household, inspected several invalided
soldiers, who arrived the previous night from the seat of
war. Several questions were put to each by his Excel-
lency as to the day they were wounded, where removed
to after, and how they were treated.
AVALANCHE IN THE PYRENEES.—The inhabitants of
the village of Carrejan, in the Pyrenees, on the Spanish
side of the frontier, seeing four days ago that an
avalanche of snow was about to fall, assembled in houses
which ;,hey thought the least exposed to danger. Un-
fortunately, the snow came down precisely on those very
house., leaving almost untouched several others which
had been abandoned. By the fall, fourteen houses and
forty-four barns were completely destroyed. Seventy-
two personssvvere buried in the ruins, and sixty of them
were killed on the spot. The remaining 12, though got
out alive, were so-dreadfully injured that some of them
died almost immediately after, and the others were con-
sidered in a desperate state. The loss of cattle was very
considerable. —Gaavant%
THE FOLEY PLACE MURDER.—It has been ascertained
that at the time of the murder of Mr. Joseph Latham by
Baranelli, at Foley-place, the former was possessed of
8601. in lank of England notes. It is surmised that at
the time he was murdered the above parcel was under
his pillow, and that they were abstracted from there by
some person during the confusion consequent on the
horrible event. The following are the numbers and
dates of the notes :-3001. note, No. 22955, Jan. 12,
1854 ; four 1001. notes, Nos. 39511, 13, 14, and 15, all
dated Feb. 10, 1854 • and a 501. note, No. 65164, dated
Feb. 9, 1854. A 1.00/. No. 30512, and anote,
No. 48069, dated June 5,' 1854, have been paid into the
Bank of England since the murder. A reward has been
offered for the above notes, or for information as to the
person who paid the notes into the Bank.
PROGRESS OF EMIGRATION TO CANADA.—The report
of Mr. Buchanan, the Government emigration officer at
Quebec, has just been received in this country, and as
it contains facts worthy of being generally known, we
gladly gi to them publicity. It appears that the number
of passengers who arrived in Quebec last year was
53,183, which, compared with 1853, shows an increase
of 16,484, or about 45 per cent., the emigration
having been larger than in any previous year since
1847. Of this number, 18,175 sailed from England
(three-fourths of them from Liverpool), 16.168 from Ire-
land, 6,446 from Scotland, 5.709 from Norway, 5,688
from Germany, and 857 from New Brunswick ; but the
emigration from Liverpool included 4,268 Irish, 727
Scotch, 4,163 Germans, 1,140 Norwegians and Swedes,
and 58 Americans. Besides these, 295 Germans sailed
from Hull, and 255 from Dublin. The average length of the
voyage by British sailing vessels was 47 days, by con-
tinental vessels 58 days, and by steamers fro-a Liverpool
16 days. Three vessels were lost, but no lives. Of the
above number of emigrants, 3,195 were tradesmen and
attsans, showing an increase of 1,637 on the previous
year ; 5,632 were farmers and farm servants ; domestie
servants, 117 ; cleiks, 159 ; and unskilled labourers,
10,488. A considerable number of the English and
Scotch emigrants were persons possessed of means.
A letter from the mayor of Port Hope is
referred to as showing the satisfaction given by the
female domestics sent ; and we are told that emi-
grants of this class, if of good cLaracter, cannot fail to
be well provided for in Canada. As the facilities of the
route— a water communication of 590 miles to Hamilton,
and a railway of 465 miles from thence to Chicago, at a
charge of 21. sterling—become better known, as well as
the many advantages which Canada offers to the settler,
there is likely to be an increase in the proportion of
emigrants to that country seeking the St. Lawrence route
in preference to that through the United States. The
establishment of ocean steamers is regarded by Mr.
Buchanan as of the first importance for securing the
b toe t t
ae el
pr p
re oaisast oft h

advantagesi grant, wh o
which av e
Clately began
Canada
offers
to men of capital. The large proportion of Irish
emigrants last year is not a notable feature in these
statistics ; the flow of emigration is now towards
Canada rather than the United States, to which country
the emigration last year shows a decline. This change
of direction is partly- owing to the growing appreciation
of the eligibility of Canada as a field of emigration, and
partly to the violence of the Know-Nothing party, whose
intolerance of foreigners is repelling emigration from the
United States, to which the Irish exodus has hitherto
been chiefly directed.
