poison, (by mistake, it is supposedly several

Also, on the same day, II. Gin, Esq. The
deceased was a member of the Brandy family,

characterize that country. He was pursued
by the Police, but Secreted himself in cask
and landed safely in New York. Since then
many of his family have made their escape in
the same maner. He left large family o

with them to cheer up their hands. How they
will manage to do so since his death, we are
unable to say. 1t may lead to disastrous re.
suits, and it is feared oy some that our farmers
may cease to grow wheat, which would ineVita
bly, raise the price of flour.
Of late years, however, Mr.. w. had grown
shiftIess, noisy, and quarrelsome, and any neigh
borhood that he visited was sure to be the scene
of disturbance of every nature. The frequent
occurrence of street fights got up by Mr.. w
was the ultimate cause of his death. He wa!
killed by a blow on the head with ballOt-bol
in open daylight. The perpetrators, Of The
deed are not fully known, but suspicion rests
upon two men whose names we believe art

"A STRAIN ENGINE THAT WILL NOT DO GA Con-
slant Reader of the London Nautical Standard
thinks it may interest some of the readers of that
journal to know that Souters patent steam engine,
which was prematurely pulled by a correspondent
some months since, has recently been taken out of
the vessel in which it was fitted. The merits of
this application of steam power, he says, have
been discussed on a late occasion in the court Of
Queens bench, where it was given in evidence
that the engine had not realized its requirements
The vessel, it appeared, ought by the contract to
have been driven at her load line nine miles an
hour; whereas only four and half miles could
be maintained at the light line. The consumption
of fuel was stipulated to be fourth less than other
standard marine engines; whereas it was three
times that amount. The simple element of the
dead weight of the en- gines and boiler was more
ha n doubled.
