E ISLE OF WIGHT ELECTION.-ADDRESSES

OF THE CANDIDATES.
The inelligence that a new writ has been ordered has
14ereased the activity of both parties in the Isle of Wight.
All doubt as to who are to be the candidates is now
removed by the addresses of Mr. Bailie Cochrane and
Mr. Moffat.
Mr. Cochra e's address is brief. After alluding to his

friendsh np
for Sir John Simeon, a friendship which was not
interfered 'with by their political battle, he states that
since the last election he has in nothing changed his
Pillions. He still clings to conservative and constitutional
"44ciples. He declines to enter into questions being discussed
diffi
Parliament ; but offers his opinion upon the religious
ar,atioellity of the Education scheme. He says that no

FENIANISM IN LONDON.
Orders from Government have been received at Wool-
wich for extra precautions to be taken for the safety of all
buildings, arms, powder, &c., exposed to Fenian attack.
Boats, containing crews of Thames police armed with re-
volvers and cutlasses, have been ordered to cruise about
day and night on the river, in front of the Royal Arsenal,
in p eparation for any emergency. Extra guards of armed
artillery have been placed on duty at all the powder ma•
gazines, arsenal wharves, dtc. A sharp look out is also
being kept on all vessels coming up the river, and every
conceivable precaution is being taken to carry out the in-
structions received from Government.

HORRIBLE OUTRAGE AND MURDER.

A fearful occurrence has just taken place at Glenfa;, 13
miles from Enniskillen. A farmer named Dolan having
become jealous of his wife, who was enceinte,
after severely beating her attacked ber with a knife, and
while he was thus engaged the child was born.
He killed the child with the knife, and, believing his wife
to be dead, set fire to the house and decamped. Her
screams, however, attracted the notice of the neigh-
bours, who arrived in time to rescue her from the
flames, but she is not ex ected to survive. Dolan has:been
arrested.
