For the Monmouth Weekly Herald
THE TRUE NOBILITY.

Much, almost everything depends upon
principle in constituting the true man.
But he is not only man of fixed and set
tied principles, but also a man Of prompt
and rigorous action. The man who in this
age would be worthy of the name of man
must act. This is not an age for idiers,
everything is astir; excitement, activity;
and enterprise, are distinguishing charac-
teristics Of this age, and he who does
nothing, must be good for nothing; he can
exert little or no influence in favor of the
right and the good, and he will most like
ly pass silently down to the grave, un-
cared for and uhlamented It would be
Of little avail that we abstained from The
actual commission of whatever we knew
to be wrong If we did no good: d man
may favor in his heart the principles of
righteousness and virtue, and vet, If he is
entirely passive, he can be of but little
worth. In order to be truly dignifed and
noble, man must actA--he must do some
thing To sustain the right and the good;
to condemn and destroy, as far as possible;
the wrong, is the appropriate work of the
man Of principle-of the true nobleman:s
Systems of evil are to be met and abolish
cd. Public opinion Is to be corrected.
religious truth is to be prcmulgated and
by whom shall all tits be-. done That
somebody must undertake the work is OBJ
vious, or twill never be accomplished; and
If those who profess to love the good and
hate the Wong: are silent and inactive;
who, disk again, shall perform itl?s
Alas it cannot be performed; iniquitY
will prove triumphant, and tile pure and
holy hight that emanates FROM the Bible,
the great moral luminary Of the Universe,
will be eclipsed by tile darkness of error
and superstition. The true nobleman
bears part in the grand struggle be-
tween good and evil; he is Prompt to act;
he acts at the proper time, and directs
his energies against the wrong of what
ever kind it may be; and both by his ex-
ample and preeepts sustains and defends
the right. Who does not see how necess
sary it is that he should imbibe virtuous
and religious principles in order to Sc
cure the happiness both of ourselves and
our fellows-ahd who does not see how
necessary 1t is that we should bet accord
ing to those principles in order to pro-
mote our own good and the good Of those
around us.
The man WHO looks merely to his own
selfish interests, and acts only to promote
them, is hardly deserving the name of
man, he has lowered the dignity of his ma
ture, and degraded the noblest work of
God. But the man who looks to the
welfare of others, in connection with his
own, who vigorously labors to stop the
tide OF evil because it is likely to deluge
others, and sink them in irremediabIe ruin,
is the one Of the nohlest objects upon
which we can gaze, whether he be DOOM
ed to sit in the vale Of poverty, or wheth-
er he be an heir of weaIthj or whether he
be learned, or whether he be ignorant, no
matter. He, reader, is the true noble5
man.

Shocking Murder and Suicide.

a most hof1ybi{ murders and suicide
took place at the Voor Honse last even
inc, saws Che Buffalo Republic Of the 9th
inst, the particulars Of which we derive
from Mr.. c. S. Bathbone, one Of The keep
ers of Poor House. 4 man by the name
Of Patrick Kane, an Irishman, and a sol
der in the late war with Mexico, came to
the Poor House the present fall, with his
wife Jane and child, about four years old.
Kane had but one arm, having lost the
other by the premature discharge Of
cannon. It appears he had become jeal-
Gus of his wife, and last evening Sunday
about six o'clock, he went to his wife's
room and called to her come to him.. She
readily oheyed the call, meeting him at
the top Of the stairs. Kane without a
moments warning, caught her and drew
a razor across her throat, seyering one of
the principal arteries. She escaped from
his grasp and ran down stairs, crying
I" Oh, Godl oh, Godw he following after,
until she passed through three unoccupied
rooms in the basement, when she fell, eth
er from the loss of blood Or by blow
from his powerful arm. The alarm had
aroused the inmates. Although scarcely
two minutes had elapsed before Mr.. Bath
bone reached the scene, he found her dead,
and the brutal husband was sitting BY her
side bleeding, having also cit Ills own
throat in dreadful manner.
The keeper describes the scene that
here took place as awful beyond descrip-
ton. Kane held the razor still in his
band ond would draw If across his throat

Shortly before siMo'clock this evening
the steamship Canada came ID collision
with the steamer Ocean, hence for Hal
lowell; (Me.. Striking her amidships.
The Ocean took fire, and soon after her
boiler exploded Several lives. are lost
The steamship Canada is now anchored
eff Rainsford Island, and the steamer Nep-
tune has been sentTdown to her to bring
on her mails, and will probably reach
here with them at H2 O'Clock tonight.
The collision between the Canada and
the Ocean occurfkd shortly after FIVE
o'clock, nearer thd lower light house,
The weather was Dt very thick at the
time, and the causeIof the disaster remains
unexplained,
The steamers Fdest City, for Portland
and the Boston, fo} Bangor, took off the
of the Ocean; about eighty in
number.
The collision up$t the stoves on board
the Ocean, in consequence of which she
took fire, and soon afterwards followed
the explosion ofohe of her boilers.
A man, awomal; and a child three years
old, were picked up after being drowned
names unknown, Hiram.L L. Wings one
of the messengers of Carpenters Express
is badly scalded. Charles Pope a color-
ed matt, had his thigh broken; and his
wife is badly injured These are all the
serious casualties that have yettfanspired
but is feared many more have lost their
lives by drowning. The fright Of the
passengers was excessive.
The Forest City returned here with the
dead and injured; and the Boston, with
the balance Of the passengers; proceeded
on her way to the Bast.
The Ocean was a large a good boat
and was commanded by Capt. Donovan.
She was heavily freighted, and is a total
loss.

MURDER IN CANADA.

We stated in the CoIomist of Tuesday,
that Mr.. james Sheppard Of Yonge street,
had been murdered near the corner of
Kingston and MARKHAM roads, on the line
of the Grand Trunk Railroad, on the night
of Saturday last, Or early on the following
Sunday morning. An inquest has been
held ON the body by Mr.. Coroner Duggan
Of this city The verdict which the jury
returned, was one of wilful murder against
Mathew Gleeson and Timothy Magrath
The former admitted his guilt. The most
strange part Of the affair IS, that Sheppard
who is an Englishman, was murdered on
account Of his religion, he being a Prot
estant, and the two murderGfs Roman
Catholics. YE
This was stated in effect by Gleeson.
but we should hope it, is not correct IF
true, it is alarming to think that religious
bigotry should lead to the commission of
such horrible crime. Gleesdn, on being
asked why he had committed the deed,
said that he had no ill-feeling against de-
ceased, as an acquaintance, but that his
religion alone induced them to kill him.
Eight men altogether were arrested on
suspicion, by order of Mr.. Wheeler, J. P.
who dis played much activity on hearing
OF the awful occurrence; Sheppard was
brutally murdered; not having. as far as
yet known, given the slightest provoca-
ton on his part-his only offence being
as one Of the prisoners stated, that he was
a Protestant. He seems to have been
held in esteem by his fellow workmeh.
