20,000 bales.

THE LAMIRANDE CASE.

The Montreal TVitness gives the subjoined account
of the steps taken in London in order to obtain the
restoration of Lanairande to liberty. The account, it

will be seen, consists of a letter addressed by their
London agents to Lamirande's advisers in Canada :
" London, Sept. 7.

"Mr. J. Doute, Q.C., advocate, Montreal.—Dear Sir,
Your telegram, dated Montreal, 30th ult., reachedus on the
morning of the Ist inst., and we immediately placed our-
selves in communication with Lord Carnarvon, who hap-
pened to be in Hampshire. On the 2d one of our partners
went down to his lordship, who said he was not acquainted
with any of the parties named, but hadreceived a telegram
from Lord Monck, saying that Lamirande would arrive in
England, but not saying who he was, or how coming. His
lordship therefore did not see how he was to interfere. By
notes and telegrams we instructed our agents at London-
derry, who, in consequence of the Damascus staying so
short a time, were only able to ascertain that the parties
were on board and had proceeded to Liverpool, and to so
inform us. This information reached us on the 4th, the
Damascus having touched at Londonderry at 8 p.m. on the
3d. Our information was so meagre that it was impossible
to make an affidavit strong enough to apply, with the
slightest chance of success, to a judge for habeas corpus
and it being the vacation here, to get hold of a judge at all
would be a work of some difficulty. We therefore, by tele-
graph, instructed our agents at Liverpool to go on board the
steamer immediately on her arrival, see the prisoner, and
ascertain the facts, and send us up affidavit by that night's
post, so as to enable us to get a habeas corpus and intercept
the parties in London. Our agents were not allowed to have
an interview that night with the prisoner. They, however,
managed to keep him in Liverpool, and in the morning made
as application to the stipendiary magistrate for an order to
have him brought before him. This the magistrate refused
to grant, and declined in any way to interfere. Our agents
then applied to the French Consul, and found him antago-
nistic to the prisoner. The police were applied to, but
with equal bad success, the keeper of the prison where he
was booking him as "in transit." This information reached
us by telegraph about 3.30 on the sth, and with it a de-
scription of the prisoner, and an intimation that the whole
party, supplemented by the presence of a Liverpool detec-
tive, would reach London about nine, en route for France.
An affidavit of facts was also sent by post, to be ready in
the morning. Tho judge not being in town, the only chance
was, by some means, to keep Lamirande in London until
we could make our application. To do this we applied, at
Scotland-yard, to Sir Richard Mayne, who consulted Mr.
Waddington, the Under-Secretary of State ; and after some
consideration they decided they could not interfere. We
met the prisoner at the station, in charge of Malin, Sipling,
and Carlisle (a Liverpool detective), the latter having a
regular transit card from the head Liverpool office, and he
stated his instructions were from the superintendent, who
was acting in concert with the French consul, to see the
prisoner through England, and leave him at Dover, in the
hands of the French officer, and this he meant to do. Re-
sistance to Carlisle was useless, as the police would be on
his side, and would help him as a superior officer. Lami-
rande seemed exhausted and in a sort of stupor, and unable
to attempt an escape, and we wore therefore obliged to let
him go. The result was that the whole party left London
by a very early train for Paris. We aro sorry we could not
carry out your instructions, but everything we could pos-
sibly do we did. We found out detectives in London were
pretty well up to the story of his capture in Canada, and
were expecting every day to have the job of running
him through.' "

DIABOLICAL CRUELTY. —Early yesterday morning
it was discovered that a horse belonging to Mr. Cookson,
of Stratford, whilst grazing in a meadow, had its tongue
tied to the lower jaw with whipcord. It was supposed to
have been done at least three days previous, and the suf-
ferings of the horse appear to have been very great. A
reward has been offered for the discovery of the perpe-
trators of this atrocity.
THE WOUNDS OF RIFLE BULLETS IN BATTLE.—
There is in the museum of the Army Medical Department a
very interesting specimen of a bullet, connected with a
wound of the head, and exhibiting nearly one complete turn
on its long axis after it had been thus caught or lodged. This
bullet, a Russian conical rifle bullet, has been divided in its
deadly course by an oblique slit from the apex or tip to the
base; and the two divided parts are only held together by a
narrow isthmus of lead at one of the angles of the base of ,
the section. But that is not all—this isthmus, or connecting
strip, is twisted round itself like a piece of cord, carrying
with it the thinner section of the bullet, or that section
which was most easily acted upon by the twisting force.
There are ridge and furrow lines on the separated surface
of the bullet, and they are contorted from the right to the
left—indicating the direction towards which the rotary
force of the projectile has modified the direction of the bi-
secting force. Here we have the demonstration of the in-
fluence of the spinning property of a rifle bullet in motion,
first detected, we believe, by Deputy-Inspector Gen. Thos.
Longmore, professor of medical surgery, Army Medical
School. Although, when the spinning force is first im-
pressed upon the projectile, it is limited by the degree of
spirality of the grooves of the bore to one turn in a distance
varying from 20 inches to 78 inches, according to the rifle
used, yet there seems to be reason for believing that the
degree of turn, or the distance within which a complete spin
takes place, constantly lessens from the time the projectile
quits the muzzle of the barrel, owing to the greater opposi-
tion to the forward motion than to the spinning motion in
its passage through the air. At any rate, when the forward
motion is stopped, or nearly stopped by a substance capable
of opposing sufficient resistance, the shortened turn is in
certain cases rendered obvious to sight, and it is under such
circumstances that the fact is of importance to surgeons.
The general conclusion drawn by Dr. Longmore is, if
elongated projectiles, such as the 'Whitworth bullets, were
substituted for the,Enfield, first—that the number of head
and trunk wounds would be greatly increased ; the amount
of increase being proportional to the velocity and lower
trajectory and greater hardness of the Whitworth hexago-
nal projectile. Secondly—that of these wounds a greater
proportion than now usually happens in war would bo at-
tended with fatal results on the field of battle. Thirdly—
that there would be, in like proportion, a greater number
of fractures of bones, as well as of flesh wounds of the ex-
tremities, but the comparative degree of severity of these
can hardly be stated without further experience.—United
Service Magazine.

" General Garibaldi," says the Italia :Milan,
" has sent in his resignation as commander of the
Volunteers, and it has been accepted by the King."
Count de Barral, Italian Minister at Berlin, took
leave immediately after the signature of the peace
for the conge of a month.
LIVERPOOL STATUE OF Mn. GLADSTONE.—The
design for a marble statue of the Right Hon. W. E. Glad-
stone, to be the work of Mr. Adams, sculptor, and which,
when finished, is to be placed in ono of the niches in St.
George's-hall, has been on private view during the past
few days in Liverpool. The statue, which is to be com-
pleted in about a year and a half from the present time,
represents the ox-Chancellor of the Exchequer in his
official robes.
