"In the event of a railroad being determined on from
any point on the Danube to any p ,int on the Black Sea,
as this new mode of communication might compete with
the canal, the company shall obtain the concession there-
of in preference to every other party."
Within the last few days some of our contempo-
raries have announced (we think prematurely at all
events) that Galatz, Reni, and Ismail are to be
made free ports. It must, however, be borne in mind
that they cannot be made such without the concur-
rence of Moldavia and the Sultan, whose revenue-I
would suffer thereby ; whereas, the privileges of
free ports have already been granted to Kustendji
and Rassova—an additional. reason for completing
the canal.—From a contemporary.

MURDER O.F TWO INFANTS A7' KENSINGTON.

On Monday evening an inquset took place at Ken-
sington► Workhouse, before Mr. Btent, the deputy coro-
ner, and a jury, relative to the deaths of two infants
(twins), whose bodies were found on Friday in the shrub-
beriel at 31, Pembroke Villas.
Mrs. Jane Saunderson, the wife of a railway police•
man, dep';se•i that she had the charge of 31, Pembroke
Villag. About 8 o'clock on Friday morning she was in
the back shruhheriei of the villa, when her attention was
attracted to a bundle lying under the wall. On examin-
ing it she found to her great horror that it contained the
bodies of two infants, male and female. She was so much
alarmed that she ran into the house, and when somewhat
recovered went out and returned with a police con-
stable.

By the Coroner—l can form no idea how the bodies
came where I discovered them. The wall of the grounds
is about five feet high, and the bundle could have been
thrown over. There is a public thoroughfare outside the
shrubberies. I have no suspicion of any party.
By a Juror—The bodies were wrapped in a etrorg
coarse cloth—with this exception, they were quite
naked. I did not notice any marks of violence on them ;
the bodies appeared quite fresh, but I did not observe
any blood on them.
Doctor Guazz.xoni, the parish surgeon, said be had
not the slightest doubt but that the infants bad been
born alive, and perished from neglect and exposure.
They were fine full grown infants.
A policeman said he bad made every inquiry, but
hitherto bad not discovered any ens to th• offenders.
Pummel', the beadle, who is a very old and active officer,
said that in the absence of reward such cues as that
escaped tl e bands of justice.
The Coroner said the remark was just—the parish
ought to offer a reward, which would probably lead to
the guilty parties being brought to justice.
The jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against
some person or persons unknown, and strongly recom•
mended the parish authorities to offer a reward for the
apprehension of the offenders.
Some of the board of guardians who were present said
the recommendation should be attended to.

want spirit and energy on the.part of tho:e who possess
the abidties to develope the mineral resources of this
locality. The :old mine is on the estate of the Eight
