Tremendous Gale.

On Friday last, we had the heaviest gale
of wind, that has visited this place 70,
years, the only material damage done in
this place except levelling fences, tearing
down signs and unruffiing woodsheds, was
the injury done to our Prison. The wind
came from the southwest, the Prison was
bailt Of brick and the gsbIe ends extended
several feet above the roof, consequently
The north end was blown out as far down
as the chamber floor. Three persons were
in jail at the time, they naturally concluded
that their time had come.
We have not heard Of any lives being
lost, a. the present wiring, but it is not
reasonably 10 suppose that all have escap-
ed, when there has been such an immense
qasasisy Of timber blown down as was

The Township Libraries, when proper

The Library in this place contains about

encourage their children to form habits of

The Niagara left Liyerpool on the after
noon Of the 9th inst~ and passed the Eric
son only eight miles from Liverpool.
: The Persia arrived oat on the evening OF
the It'll, having rlade her trip in nine days
and sev6n hours.
The Anglo-Saxon, from Quebec, arrived
at Liverpool on the 9th inst.
1t appears that while France supports
the unconditional admission of Russia and
Prussia to the second meeting of the Eu-
ropean conferences, England opposes the
admission of the former and Austria of the
latter.
Treaties of commerce between russia
and France. and railroad treaties between
Russia aud Prussia, were in course of pre-
paration.
Lord Palmerston had delivered an nd.
dress on education before large assemblage
in the Free Trade Hall, at Manchester. He
also made two speeches in defence of his
foreign policy.
In Lord Pslmerston's speech at Man
chester, he used the following expression
which has been the subject of much com
ment:
81 hope the peace will be lasting, but its
endurance mus. depend upon the fidelity
with which the conditions are fulfilled
If they are faithfully carried out by the
power which provoked hostility, there car
be no doubt that peace will be long preser
ved.""
On the 9th inst, the directors of thu
Bank of England held a protracted sitting
during which they considered the expedi
ency of making further change in tn
rate of discount, with view of arrestin.
the continued outflow of gold.
A resolution not to make any change 70
the present, was arrived at by majorit
of only one.
