full concert last evening. The selections were
good and better performed-we being the

well-but we would hint to the managers, that,
they will do well, in their next programme, to
put Mr.. McConville down for solo; and ex-
press our opinion, that with proper culture,
he may yet make good singer

present appearances, be a further diminution
of vessels employed in the fleet, and with a
diminished competition the business may re-
gain healthy state.

A SEDIrloUs You've LADY.-Thc
British journals have had much to say
about the trial of Montalcmbcrt, in
France, for writing seditious articles !;
but their own government has placed
a young lady in limbo for similar
offence, in Ireland. The Tipperary
Eran,iner says
Last evening, the Fethard police es-
ccrted into Clonmel young, lady-like
and extremely delicate girl named Ann
Walton, ard had her committed to
jail on a charge of having written
seditious letters, one in particular,
which, we understand, constitutes the
head and front of her offending, writ
ten on the Goth inst, and calling on
her Majesty's forces ''to rebel and mu-
tiny" as the language of the commit.
tai expresses it. Inquiries made at
the jail have failed to elicit connexions
of the prisoner. To all appearance
the accused is highly respectable and
intelligent. We may mention, en- pas
SAINT, that rumors touching her sanity
were freely obtained to-day.

PAKrICULARsoF THE Suicide OF JuD-
SON HurcHIssos.-1'hc Boston Afias
and Bee gives the following particulars
in regard to the suicide Of Judson
Hutchinson
81, appears that his body was found
suspended by the neck in an unfinished
house owned by his brother at High
Rock, in Lynn. He had been assisting
his brother John and wife in attend
isg 10 the fires kndled in the unfinished
house to prevent the plaster freezing,
and was left in the basement arranging
the furnace fire, when they returned
to the High Rock cottage, few feet
distant. Finding tea ready on enter
ing the house, they rang the bell for
Judsop, but he did not come and his
brother on searching for hi.n found
him hanging by the mex. He has at
tines given Indications OF an lnsound
state of mind. 1t is related that he was
once taken to an insane hospital for
treatment by his brother Jesse, who
died in California, and happening to
gain access to the officers OF the insti-
tuition a trifc in advance, he persuaded
them that Jesse was the insane one,
and nearly succeeded in having him
locked up. He returned from con-
cert tour with the family about week
since, and a concert was given by
them in Lynn last Saturday evening.
In manner and dress he was quite &C.
centric. His expansive shirt collar and
sizelcss felt hat will not soon be forgot
ten. The deceased was about forty
years Of age, aud had been much alb
sorbcd in spirltualism for some time
past, and has sometimes conversed
lately on the best means of committing
suicide"
