A. MURDER TEN YEARS AGO.—On Tuesday last a
man, who gay e his name as Edward M'Donnell, a native
of the county Louth, was committed to the county gaol,
Dundalk, ch arged with the commission of a murder in
Aberdeenshire, Scotland, about ten years since. His
statement is, two other persons, Thomas M'Donnell and
a man named Harty, were taken up at the time, and
tried on the same charge, and that he was not in Scot-
land when the murder took place. The prisoner has
been remanded till Tuesday next, for further examina-
tion.—Louth Advertiser.

REVERSE OF FORTUNE.—In Midsummer last year a
merchant fitted out a vessel from the Clyde to Mel-
bourne, he being owner of both ship and cargo. She
married out a number of passengers, and among the crew
was a poor boy, who was taken out free for his labour.'
When the vessel arrived at Melbourne, the owner sold'
the cargo, and shortly afterwards the vessel, and re-
mitted the proceeds to his friends at home. This poor
boy got employment in one of the numerous lighters
that ply between the large emigrant ships and Mel-
bourne, carrying cargo, a very profitable trade, and he
last week 'remitted 101. of his savings, accompanied by a
letter, in which he says, " I am well employed, and
saving money. You may perhaps be aware that the
ship I came by was sold here, and the owner is driving
a cart through Melbourne, the captain is employed as a
labourer about the wharves, while a young gentleman,
a relative of the owner, is carrying a hod in a brick
atore."—Nortl4
