to which the intense heat in summer and
cold in winter, leads rs to believe we have
borrowed our climate from Canada. One
Of the best proofs Of the mi!dness OF the
atmosphere being the fourishing state Of
the flower garden, as but a few days ago
We were presented with beautiful and
fragrant bouquet of roses which could not
be surpassed by those of leafy June.

on the morning of October 5th, in the 4lst
crifice of the Mass was offered. up for the
repose of her soul, and her remains were
conveyed to the family vault at Ballina-
clOugh battle-ground, accompanied by one
of the largest funeral processions witness
ed for many years. Amongst the clergy

Flapnery, Of Canada West, and the Rev.
j. Kenyon, p. p, Templederry.
The >Tipperary FREQ Press says:-We
learn with very great pleasure that his
Grace Archbishop Leahy has appointed the
Rev. VIM. QGirke, P. p, of Galbally, to
the archdeaconry Of Cashel, vacant by the
death of the late respected Archdeacon La
fan. We heartily congratulate the inhab-
itants of the City of the Kings on their
new pastor, who has leDg been known and
esteemed in Tipperary as a>gOod and zeal
ous priest, kindly and courteous gentle
man, and true and patriotic Irishman.
WArERFoRD.-A correspondent of the
Waterford Citisen says Some discoveries
of old coin have been made on the lands
of Kilcloony, parish of Mothill, short
time since, by some laborers in the employ
ment of Mr.. Kennedy, farmer, whilst sink
ing drain in one of his fields. During
the excavation one of the men hit on q
slab, under which he found about thirty
pieces of copper cOin-pence, half-pence
and farthings our late copper
currency in size and weight. They were
coined for King James H., bearing date
1889. On one side is head with laurel
branch, Latin inscription, &C.; and the
other side is a crown, at the top of which
is small cross. On this side, also, are the
initials, arms, &C., of the King. It is a
remarkable fact that the impressions are as
plain and as easily decyphered as on the
day they left the minter's hands, though
they have been in the earth for a large
number of years.
The Dublin Irishman asks for informa-
ton of James and Michael Casey, natives
of Grawn, parish of Kilrossenty, county
Waterford; the former, when last heard of,
was in New Orleans; and the latter was
near the city of Savannah, Georgia. Any
information of them will be thankfully re-
ceived by their sisters, Margaret and Julia
Casey, Abbeyside, Dungarvan.

james Connolly, Ballyhogue, came by
his death accidentally on Wednesday, Oc-
tober Sth. He was standing il his car, as
sisting to raise a sack of corn, when he fell
backwards upon his head on the ground.
Having been removed to the County Infirm
airy, he died at three o'clock. 1t appears
that one of the arteries of the head was in
jured, owing to fracture of the skull, and
that an etfusion of blood from the I'M ured
blood-yessel upon the brain caused death
