Horrible Occurrence in Glare,

MILrowN Malay, Oct. 4.
On Monday last, the 30th ult., about 100
boys, averaging niue years Of age, FROM the
auxiliary workhouse here were sent to the
presen, work house ut Ennixiymoue, 10 be
inspected by committee OF the Bsily-
vaughan board Of guardians, as being charg-
able to tina, union. Ii appears that they
were kept there all day, and about five OF
six o'clock were ordered to return 10 Mir
town, without having COTTON a E'orsel of
food to ent, so that they were fasting since
SIX O'Clock that morning. The night bav-
ing been unusually STORMY and wet, these
poor wretched little creatures, beng quite
exhausted with hunger and faiigas were
unable to walk such distance Fifteen
miles,) and the result, was that Numbers of
Them lay on the rondsoe all night; others of
them were more fortunate, having obtained
lodgings a, the houses on the way. " men
the roll was called next morning nj The

missing, and amongst them was Denis ker-
in, whose dead body was found on Tuesday
morning on the side Of the road at Cionbo-
uy-bridge, near this village, with n wo..nd
in the forehead and another in the back Of
the skull! which, it appears he received by
being frequently dashed against the walls,
as he must have been blown about ~ the
very high wind. An inquest was held en
the body on Wednesday, by E. O'Donueil,
Esq, at the auxiliary workhpuse, hui the
jury not being willing to return q verdict
until it was shown to them 10y what nu,her-

such a distance on such severe day, iba

practical jokers that ever ran upon the riv-
err, or that ever ran saws upon greenhorns.
/ The past season, rs one of his instruments
Of waggery, he took along couple of reeds
(fndian futes,) one of which was charged
with flour, so that when the flute was blown,
perfect cloud of -four was discharged into
the face and eyes. of the person blowing it.
Whenever Nj foumi any passenger,
priest or layman, it was all the same to him,
who manifested an interest in these Indian
curiosities, he would produce the two flutes
and retaining the one that was not loaded
with -four, would hand over the other to the
verdant enquirer; and would then commence
playing that plaintive, monotonous Dakota
tune, with variation of two notes, which
is so familiar to the ears OF every resident
Of Saint Paul. Thus decoyed, the posses
sor Of the other flute was certain to follow
Ms example and at the very first foot,
to blow cloud Of -four into his own face,
from the barrel Ofthe flute, which is played
like clarionet; and thus produce in the
crowd around an outburst of merriment, at
his own expense. On the last trip Of
the Franklin, but a few weeks since, M
had his Indian flutes along, as usual; and
one of the passengers, who was upto snuff,
determined to turn the laugh for once upon
the old wag himself; so be took Ms de-
coy flute away 10 the cook room, and charg-
ed it well with finely pulverized charcoal
and returned it, without Ms knowl-
edge, to its place in the office, with the
the other flute, and after dinner said ii

"No." replied the stranger, 81 never did.

This was enough for M. His face,
luminous as the sun behind crimson cloud,
was radiant with anticipated fun, as he
brought out the two flutes, and handed to
the enquirer, rhe one loaded with flour.
A whole crowd, the most of whom nn-
derstood the flour trick, several of them
by being themselves vic,imized, gathered
around to see the sport.

MEssRs EDIT0Rs-t was my good fortune 10
be in Camden last night, and to attend the secona
Anniversary of Wateree Division of the Sons OF
Temperance. The addre IS was delivered oy new
]. p. Lee-and of that address, permit me 20 say
a few words: From the very many able sPeecheS
made the last few years, by talented speakers
had thought the subject by this time somewhat
exhausted; but in all the temperance speeches II
has been INV privilege to hear, none OF them was
ahead Of the effort of last evening in calm, sooer
facts; the speaker seemed to choose no words mat
did not tell effectually in proving his positions;
he traced the history of alcoholEshewed the rum
and desolaton effected by its use-swept away
every refuge resorted to by the
clearly that the Sons" expected to succeed only
by Gods blessing on their efforts; and last OF ALL
the speaker showed his good taste by moi topping
off his speech by an address to the ladles-not
that would by any means overlook or under
value woman's influence in the temperance cause
still think every sensible woman is tired OF the
stereotyped edition of Aattery that lecturers on
this subject have topped off their speeches with
for some time past.
If any one should suppose this piece intended
as puff to the orator, be it known that the writer
is stranger to him; does noteven know on which
side of the Potomac or Atlantic he was born !;
never, has; exchanged word with him; only
knows him through his excellent, common-sense
speech; and from whatever State or country he
NAV hail, the writer earnestly wishes that many
more of the same sort would seek home in
