MURDER OF A POACHER.

At the Leicester County Police-office, on Monday,
George Keane, 41 years of age, of the firm of Keane and
Walker,millers, Crow Mill, Coombsthorpe, Leicestershire.
was charged with the wilful murder of John Gilham, at the
above place, early on Sunday morning. Mr. Onslow ap-
peared to watch the case on behalf of the prisoner, who
seemed much distressed at his serious position. It seems that
the prisoner, who is an unmarried man, resided with his
partner (Mr. Walker) in a house adjoining the corn mill at
Crow Mill, and that about two o'clock on Sunday morning
they were disturbed from their slumbers 1y the barking of
the dog in the yard. They both got up, and armed them-
selves with loaded guns. Walker on getting outside
placed his gun on the ground and proceeded alongside the
milldam. The prisoner took the other side, which adjoins
what is termed the " One-acre Field," and had not pro-
ceeded far when he noticed three men stooping down at
the side of the water (four others being on the opposite
side, but some distance from Mr. Walker), and that he at
once said to them, " If you stir, I'll fire," and in another
moment fired one of the barrels of the gun in the face of the
deceased, who was foremost, wounding him severely in the
face and the left hand, which he was at the time holding
up to avoid the full effect of the disAarge. Prisoner at
once returned home, followed by the deceased's com-
panions, who demanded his surrender, and threatened to
throw him into the water if he came out. They, however,
did not stop many minutes, but went and carried their
wounded friend home on agate. On their arri val at Coombs-
thorpe, Gilliam was attended by Mr. Burke, a retired
surgeon, and, by his recommendation, at once removed to
the Leicester Infirmary. Mr. Jacques, the house surgeon,
immediately communicated with the chief constable (Mr.
Goodyer), who went with Dr. Shaw, a county magistrate,
to the infirmary, for the purpose of taking the depositions
of Gilham ; but on their arrival he was in an unconscious
and dying state, and expired about two o'clock in the day.
In the meantime the prisoner was apprehended on the
charge of shooting at the deceased. The inquest was
opened the same evening before the coroner, Mr. J.
Gregory, when, after evidence had been taken as to the
identification of the body, it was adjourned. The defence
will be justifiable homicide—that the deceased and his
party, on being challenged by the prisoner with " Hallo
you are caught at last," threatened to " down " him, upon
which he retreated, exclaiming " Hold off, or I'll fire ;"
upon which deceased was about to rush forward, when the
prisoner fired the fatal shot. The shocking affair has
caused a profound sensation throughout both town and
county.

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.

A dreadful accident occurred at the Leamside station of
the North Eastern Railway Company on Sunday, result-
ing in the death of two children and the marvellous
escape of two others. Four children were playing on the
down line, near the water tank, but unseen by anyone in
the vicinity of the place at the time. Just then an engine
and tender from York rounded the curve, when both
driver and stoker observed the fourechildren. The brakes
were at once put on, but it was too late to bring the
engine up. The noise of the whistle, however, alarmed
the poor children, who attempted to escape. A little boy,
about four years old, ran off at once, followed by a girl
somewhat older. The two others made also an attempt to
get out of danger, but both were very young, and they
seemed " dazed " by the position they were in. The
oldest girl, getting near the end of the platform, looked
back, and then, seeing the danger the little ones were in,
turned back and endeavoured to protect them. Just then
the engine came up. The connecting rod struck her first,
and all three were thrown in one mass to the.ground.
Immediately after the engine caught the little fellow
who had been the first to see the danger. Before
he could, however, reach the end of the platform, the con-
necting-rod struck him a fearful blow on the head, knock-
ing him to the ground. A little further on, and the engine
was brought up. On the little boy being taken up it was
found that his head had been almost cut in two. He had
been killed outright. Ten yards further, and there lay in
a confused mass the three other companions. The elder
girl had her head cut open. She died in about two hours,
thus losing her life in the brave attempt to rescue her two
companions, whom she had effectually protected, as they
escaped almost unhurt.

GOD BLESS OUR S. 411.01: PRINCE.

The following spirit-stirring song—a song at
once loyal and patriotic—has been recently written
by that admirable song-writer, Mr. J. E. Carpenter,
and having been appropriately set to music by Mr.
Stephen Glover, is now published by Messrs. Robert
Cocks and Co., of 6, New Burlington-street. The
verses take their place side by side at once with the
" National Anthem" and " God Bless the Prince
of Wales" :

Of Nelson, Hood, and Collingwood,
Our grandsires used to sing ;
Our fathers had a toast as good,
They gave "The Sailor King !"
Now Royal Alfred treads the deck,
His courage to evince ;
He braves the storm nor fears the wreck ;
God bless our Sailor Prince!

CHORUS.
God bless our Sailor Prince ;
Long may his name be dear to fame,
God bless our Sailor Prince !

How young hearts beat to man that fleet,
For glory 's to be won
Where England's beet and bravest meet i
Where stands Victoria's son.
Young, bravo, and true, he wears the blue,
His courage to evince,
The pride, "the darling of his crew ;"
God bless our Sailor r rince !

Cgoßus—God bless our Sailor Prince, Sic.

When o'er the land 'a flash of pain
Shot through th' electric wire,
That England's darling son was slain,
High rose the people's ire.
Now let him know, the coward blow
Our fealty doth evince,
And blend our prayers, that God, who spares,
May save our Sailor Prince !
Cuoßus.—God bless our Sailor Prince ;
We blend our prayers, that God, who spares,
May save our Sailor Prince !

GHOSTLY UTILIiES.

Shakespeare frequently informs us that we are
but actors upon a -worldly stage and, if this be true,
our daily experience shows us that there is no style
of acting so lucrative as the assumption of direct
communication with a superior authority, divine or
imperial. Such actors are ever found to be well
housed, well clothed, well fed ; for bold
and impudent knaves pray upon the weakness
of humanity, and find numerous dupes to
support them. It matters not whether they be
Jesuits or Ranters, pretended magicians as of
yore, manufacturers of gold as Cagliostro in the
last century or the medium of ;spirits in our own
days, money is the ever-ruling object of their pre-
tensions, and success generally attends their exec.
tions. In touching on these master humbugs, let us
not overlook the ghostly utilities so intimately con-
nected with them.

Our bard has, with much impropriety, assigned
to Hamlet the celebrated monologue, " To be or
not to be," after the spirit of his father had assured
bim that it was doomed—

" To walk the night,
And for the day confin'd to fast iu fires."
According to spiritualists, neither of these is our
future destiny, being
fated to gambol, not always
invisible to mortal eyes, upon this busy stage. As
ghosts, we now have to ring bells, play guitars, pull
down blinds, upset tables, and bear our gifted and
potent masters, like floating deities, over the heads
of credulous audiences. These now, indeed, form
the exceptional labours of spiritual utilities, their
common vocation being table rapping, but the time
will probably come when some mightier medium
will endow them with a gift of the gab, and then
indeed " they will astonish the Browns !" Sleep
is perfectly out of the question to them when
gifted mortality is so wide awake to its own
interest, as a cause caebre now so abundantly
proves. Look at the position of the poor spirit of
the late Mr. Lyon. During its occupation of the
flesh, it never knew, and therefore never troubled
itself, about the interest of Mr. Home, but having
unfortunately left the whole of its mortal assets to
solace its widow, it became, after decease, singu-
larly interested in the welfare of that gentleman ;
so much so, indeed, that, through the usual mode of
communication—the production of audible sounds
from a table by its immaterial knuckles—it com-
manded its fascinated widow to convey the modest
sum of £60,000, absolutely by deed of gift, to him
—to the man who had invented or perfected the
rapping system, and which, therefore, he could
readily interpret.
We wonder much, when Mr. Home was so solici-
tous to avoid a public ovation, on his exit frotnf
court the other day, that he did not avail himse 1
of the aid of a score of disembodied spirits, and soar
homeward above the heads of an excited crowd.
Probably there was no convenient chair at hand on
which he might elegantly repose or no broom-stick
to majestically ride, as a witch of old.-I?acing

THE FENT, I.V TRIALS.

(Co;•timed from 0, First
The Solicitjr-General
.having replied oa the
whole case,

His Lordship, iu his remarks to the jury, con-
tended that the existence of the F'enian conspiracy,
and the prisoner's connectbn with it, had
been clearly established by the evidence
that had been adduced during the trial.
Not a word of the learned Solicitor-General's ad-
dress was lost by Burke, who occasionally started
from his scat to jot down a note or two on the
memorandum paper placed on the ledge of the
dock before him. Daring a portion of the speech
he leant over the rail with his head resting on one
hand and gazed intently at the learned counsel,
smiling scornfully at some of the more pointed re-
ferences made to himself.

The jury retired to consider the verdict at ten
minutes past five, and returned into court after an
absence of twenty minutes. They found both Burke
and Shaw guilty.

Burke, when asked if had anything to say why
sentence should not pass, expressed his gratitude
for the kindness he had received in prison from all
the officials, and stated that he was not surprised
at the conclusion arrived at. No twelve sensible
men could have come to any other issue.
He was commenting on the course taken by the
prosecution, when he was interrupted by Mr. Baron
Bramwell, who said he could only be allowed to

Burke to fifteen years' penal servitude, and Shaw

711 E VALLEY OF 7HE YOSEMITE.

Reader, do you wish to get a glance at the
Sierra Nevada ? You can do so in the heart of
London. We put faith in the truth of the artist's
representation, and sitting back in a chair with
all shut out but the view before us, it needs no
powerful effort of the imagination to fancy oneself
on a rock with the domes of the Yos2mite rising
around. Above, towers the large preeirice over
which the water leaps ; close by rushes the stream,
strangely changed in hue from the feathery white
it had assumed in the fall, on its headlong course
into the valley 1,000 feet beneath you. Through
the midst of the vale flows the Merced, moander-
ing peaceably along the level ground over soft
white sand. Here and there rise clumps of trees of
huge dimensions, appearing small from the height
at which you look, and diminishing in perspective till
a turn in the hill closes up the valley in the distance.
But the Domes are the wonder of the sight, the huge
bluffs that rise perpendicularly 4,500 feet from the
level ground cleft from out this mountain range.
There are the white walls of Tutochanoola with its
sentinel rock like a watch-tower on its summit.
There are the Three Brothers and El Capital, a
succession of stupendous cliffs, the like of which are
not seen in any coast line of the world. At the foot
of some are gathered huge piles cf boulders as if the
rock had here and there split, precipitating masses
of its desolate bare side into the green valley. From
the spot we look over the mountain summits that
wall in the Yosemite, a scene of desolation, of wild,
bare, weather-beaten heights, of which no hill top of
Scotland could convey even a faint idea. Far be-
yond, mingling with the clouds, rise some of the
snowy peaks of the Sierra Nevada, aiding the
imagination in conveying to the mind the illimitable
distance of desolation above, in strange contrast
with the luxuriant growth of the valley below.
But those who see the Domes of the Yosemite,
must not imagine that the picture embraces
all, this marvellous Valley has to show. Some
miles up lie two lakes, in a little nook surrounded
by giant cliffs, with pine trees and a shrub-
bery hanging over the banks. The deep, clear,
and dark blue waters are alive with trout
speckled fellows of all sizes, from a tiny minnow
to those pounds is weight. Further up the tra-
veller comes upon the Bridal Veil, of 350 feet; the
verge is gained by a steep, narrow pathway, and
beyond this is the Nevada Cascade, 700 feet high,
the first, over which the river precipitates itself,
when it foams in its rocky bed through a table-land
of the mast dreary and wild description, till it leaps, in
its hurry to roach a more genial region, over the
Bridal Veil. There the mountain sides are alike
bare of verdure and of life. Scarcely a representa-
tive of the vegetable kingdom is to be found—not a
bird or beast breaks the stillness of nature, which
would bo that of tho gravel but for the ceaseless

GHOSTLY UTILIZES.

Shakespeare frequently informs us that we are
but actors upon a worldly stage and, if this be true,
our daily experience shows us that there is no style
of acting so lucrative as the assumption of direct
communication with a superior authority, divine or
imperial. Such actors are ever found to be well
housed, well clothed, well fed ; for bold
and impudent knaves pray upon the weakness
of humanity, and find numerous dupes to
support them. It matters not whether they be
Jesuits or Ranters, pretended magicians as of
yore, manufacturers of gold as Cagliostro in the
last century or the medium of :spirits in our own
dayß, money is the ever-ruling object of their pre-
' tensions, and success generally attends their exer-
tions. In touching on these muster humbugs, let us
not overlook the ghostly utilities so intimately con-
nected with them.

Our bard has, with much impropriety, assigned
to hamlet the celebrated monologue, " To be or
not to be," after the spirit of his father had assured
him that it was doomed--

".To walk the night,
And for the day confin'd to fast in fires."
According to spiritualists, neither of these is our
future destiny,
.being fated to gambol, not always
invisible to mortal eyes, upon this busy stage. As
ghosts, we now have to ring bells, play guitars, pull
down blinds, upset tables, and bear our gifted and
potent masters, like floating deities, over the heals
of credulous audiences. These now, indeed, form
the exceptional labours of spiritual utilities, their
common vocation being table rapping, but the time
will probably come when some mightier medium
will endow them with a gift of the gab, and then
indeed " they will astonish the Browns !" Sleep
is perfectly out of the question to then when
gifted mortality is so wide awake to its own
interest, as a can. celZbre now so abundantly
proves. Look at the position of the .poor spirit of
the late Mr. Lyon. During its occupation of the
flesh, it never knew, and therefore never troubled
itself, about the interest of Mr. Home, but having
unfortunately left the whole of its mortal assets to
solace its widow, it became, after decease, singu-
larly intereSte.l iu the welfare of that gentleman ;
so much so, indeed, that, through the usual mole of
communication—the production of audible sounds
from a table by its immaterial knuckles—it com-
manded its fascinated widow to convey the modest
sum of £60,000, absolutely by deed of gift, to him
—to the man who had invented or perfected the
rapping system, and which, therefore, he could
readily interpret.
We wonder much, when Mr. Home was so solici-

tous to avoid a public ovation, on his exit fromf
court the other day, that he did not avail himse 1
of the aid of a score of disembodied spirits, and soar
homeward above the heads of an excited crowd.
Probably there was no convenient chair at hand on
which he might elegantly repose or no broom-stick
to majestically ride, as a witch of old.—Racing

1865, and the Report of the Committee of last year
on the London Water Bill, so that it has much to
recommend it. The third clause provides
that the Lea shall be taken to be the River Lea
from its rise in Hereford to its junction with
the Thames in the county of Middlesex, and shall
include all cuts, canals, &c., which have turned any
part of the river ; and the tributaries shall include
all streams flowing into the Lea, and out of the
rivers and brooks mentioned. The Conservancy
Board is to give notice to parties who may cause
and suffer sewage to flow into the river to discon-
tinue such flow, and in the event of a refusal being
met with, the Board are to have power to stop up
the outlet of any drain, pipe, or channel, and may
enter any lands and recover all expenses incurred
by them in so doing. This is a very excellent
arrangement, and if it only be properly enforced,
a great advantage will be gained to the public
health, besides other benefits being derived.
Some discussion ensued as to the manner in which
the Board should be constituted, and it is now pro-
posed that the number shall be thirteen. These
are to be from various quarters, the trustees of the
River Lee are to elect five, and others are to be
appointed by various companies, and the Lird
Mayor, Metropolitan Board of Works, &c. These
plans are good so far as they go, and the board being
constituted as it is proposed, will represent so many
different interests that. it can hardly failito repre-
sent the several interests concerned. Regarding

the body who are to elect the trustees the bill is
to be altered so as to extend the right to
all " riparian freeholders of property of one hun-
dred a year in the way mentioned in the third clause
of the bill ;" and these will be entitled to vote in
addition to those who may possess the right of vot-
ing. So far as can be judged from these brief de-
tails it seems that progress has been made in the
right direction in this matter ; and the know,ledge
that competent persons have taken the matter up
will impart satisfaction to those who duly estimate
the importance of the affair. The clause that places
the river Lea under one Conservancy Board is an
&linkable one, and cannot fail to promote the de-
sired end of improvement.
