THE FACTS.
Nobody was killed; one
man only was slightly
wounded. No white
woman was turned out
Of doors or threatened
because she came from
the North. No ex-justices
or cOnstables were recOg-
nized among the "mur-
derers." The men i'm
plicated by the negroes
were all arrested, but
discharged, as no case
was made out against
them. The negroes
whose huts were burned
were notorious cattle
thieves, and the authOri-
ties had failed to bring
them to justice.
Mr.. Rays store was not
robbed; authority Mr.. Ray
himself. Killing true.

Al the meeting OF the British Association for the

report was read from committee appointed 10 con
slider the question OF uniformity OF moneys weights
and measures. The committee expressed their
opinion that the only method OF attaining the de-
sired object would be the adoption OF the metric
system. They were convinced that they could not
introduce even the decimal scale In the present sys
fem. IL should he remembered that the metre was
no longer abstract idea scientific conception
IL Was a definite length--the length OF a concrete
object deposited at the archives Of the Paris mint
aud exactly copied IN standards within reach.
The time was past for finding out the best natural
unit and we must be satisfied with what we had got
viz. unit really universal from It's wide diffusion
among modern nations. The committee were
pleased to report that n bill to establish metric
weights and measures had been introduced by Mr..
Ewart and had met with q most satisfactory recep-
zion from both sides Of the House. Public opinion
having manifested itself strongly in favor Of The
metric system the committee hoped that her MaJes-
