TIE LATE ALLEGED OUTRAGE UPON A HouNG
WoMAS IN WESTON, MAss.-The examination
Of John Mclnerney, Robert Lambert and
Richard O'Brien, for an alleged outrage upon
4 Young woman named Alice Burns, at a
picnic Of the Bay State Society of Boston, IN
Weston. Mass, July l2th, took place in the
CharlestOwn Police Court, Tuesday forenoon
About a dozen witnesses were examined alto
eether, and their evidence was such as to de-
tract greatly from the brutality Of the affair as
first reported. The young woman, Alice Burns,
who II was alleged Was outraged. was female
Of bad character aud an occupant OF one Of the
North street dance halls there. On the day
which the affair is said to have taken place she
was badly intoxicated, and had gone out to Wes
ton in company with a number Of others Of her
sex who formed the greater portion Of the e1eurs
siouists-
1t further appeared that her associations with
one Of the accused, at least (O'Buen), were
voluntary, and that the Insensibility in which
she was found was probably the result Of too
free indulgence in liquor. Instead OF being in
dying condition, as was represented by those
who furnished information to the press, she
quickly recovered and on the same evening par
ticipated in a dance in North street.
All Of the information in brief, which was eli
cited az the examination, showed that the public
had been unnecessarily horri6ed, fact which Is
very gratifying in the midst Of such multiple
CIV Of crimes Of the character Of which this was
at first believed TO be.
The Court stated that there was evidence Of
probable guilt, which had not been distinctly met
by the defense, and be should, therefore. commit
the case to the Grand Jury; and the defendants
were ordered to await an investigation by that
body

JUDGE CouRsoL AND THE ST. ALBANs RAID.
A Toronto, Canada, letter says that Com
missioner Terrence, who was appointed by
the Government to investigate the charges
brought against Judge Coursol on bis dis
charging from custody the St. Adams raiders,
has sent in his report, generating the Judge
from everything but an error in Judgment.
The Judges friends In the ministry insist
upon his reinstatement of Office, while others
of the ministry, and among them Messrs.
McDougall and Cartier, insist on his dismiss
al. Mr.. McDougall was one Of the ministry
that suspended Judge Coursol from bis funo-
tions. and his reinstatement would necessari-
" condemn tho act Of the ministry who
suspended him. This rumor gives rise "a
another, which is that Judge Coursol, in the

Business Improvements.

! The old South Wharf, which for many
years has vainly striven by additions to its
freight accommodations to keep up with the
demands of business in that quarter, is un-
dergoing thorough oycrhauling. The old
riekety freight-houses-the accumulations of
many years-are swept off. and their places
are to be soon occupied with larger, stronger
and more commodious ones. The decayed
wharf timbers are giving place to new ones,
and every thing wears The aspect of thrift and
prosperity. The property belongs to the
Rutland and Burlington Railroad Company,
by which this renovation Is made. When
complete the entire range Of wharf aeeOmmO-
dations on the lake front Of our city viii be
very large. Yet greatly extended as they
have been within few years by the enlarge
ment of old and the construction Of new ones,
we think that before five years have passed.
large additional ones will need to be built.
The operations of the Burlington Man:
ufacturing Company bid fair to create
great amount of business. Weyisited last
week, the new rolling mill now in process
OF erection on the north side Of "the COye,'
were and gratifed and surprised to ssetLestate
Of forwardness the works are in. All the
massive underground work for the support
of the heavy machinery IS cOmplete-the en-
gine boilers are in their places, the large
furnaces for heating the masses of iron, large
and small, to be rolled are finished, and the
lofty chimney stack Is going up with rapid
ty. An immense amount of heavy machinery
lies in the yard ready to be set up, and we
were assured by Mr.. Kingsland, the efficient
Superintendent, that the works would, pro-
baby, be ready to commence rolling BY the
last Of August. At the outset, the work will !
be rolling square and round iron in all its vari-
eties-tO be extended gradually to the rolling |
of railroad iron, and the institution Of nail |
cries and wire drawing on large seale-fOr
which purpose the iron of the opposite side
of the lake is better adapted than any other
in this country. Within a few years We
may expect to sec the large grounds now
owned by the company on the lake shore,
occupied by divers manufactures in iron and
other metals, and on very extensive scale.

SPEcx OF WAR on THE TEXAS BORDER.
The Galveston correspondents Of the Hous-
TON Nelrs writes under date Of July lst as
follows -9---r .. ... -
Orders have been issued to the officials Of
Maiamoras to prepar accoutrements for
thirty-fve thousand troops of the Empire,
the troops to consist of French, Anstrians
and Algerians- The reason given for this
collection OF troops is because the United
States have similar number at Brownsville
and adjacent points. French officers assert
there is no reason why the United States
should send an army Of eighty or hundred
thousand men 70 Texas unless it was design
ed TO make an aggressive movement upon
Mexico. '--t'9'i
The spirit of the two armies is described ss
being exceedingly hostile, and there Is no
afiliation between our officers and those of
the Empire.

NUMBER FIVE

The RICHMOND ELEcrroS.-The number of
votes cast at the election in Richmond, on
Tuesday, was 2,446. Th2 significance Of the
election of a rebel officer for Mayor. is pref
ty clearly expressed by the Richmond Bule
nm, as follows
The election of yesterday simply means that
the people OF Virginia, so far at least as Rich
mond can be taken a representative Of that
people, turn not with the spirit Of the craven and
the renegade from opinions which their kith and
kin have died for.
II is, even among those who were recently the
armed foemen Of the State, subject which de-
serves respect and admiration. For the people
of the North could hold the people Of Virginia
in but slight respect did they behold them, on
such an occasion as that offered by the election
of Yesterday, fiwning and cringing to opinions
which they had hitherto opposed with their very
lives. Loyalty to government must and will as
suredly come, but it is not the work Of prestidig
ltation-it is born only Of the slow and mystic
rious process Of time.
