ONE OF THE REALITIES OF IRISH LIEF
A curious incident happened in the trial
of an appeal case at the Limerick assizes on
Saturday. The respondent on the appeal,
Mr.. Henry Trench, had obtained ut quarter
sessions a decree of ejectment against a
tenant of his named M'Enerney, whose
lease was alleged to have expired by the
lapse of the three lives named, and Men
erney asserted that one of the lives was
still in being, and this became the substan-
tial issue. On Saturday a witness was
produced for the respondent to prove that
the disputed life had expired, and the first
thing he stated was that he knew nothing
at all about the matter, but that he had
been promised money by Mr.. Trench's
bailiff to swear that the man named in the
lease was dead. 1t further appeared that
'thc bailiff, who had suborned this extraor-
binary witness had himself been convicted
of perjury on a previous occasion. MIR.
Justice keogh commented in strong
language on the proceeding, and expressed
his ACCOMPLISHMENTS that a decree should have
been granted by the chiiir,nap of quarter
sessions on the evidence of II . convicted
perjurer." His lordsl,ip reversed the de-
cision, with costs.-COrk Examiner.

From the Detroit Free Press
On Tuesday evening last Ber~
nard Rolfe, a German farmer, re- .
siding about nine miles from this
city, on the Pontiac road, had bus 4
mess with hardware firm on
Woodward avenue. He had a
German laborer in his employ
named Henry Artles, and him Mr..
Rolfe left at home busy with the
team, and procured passage in
with a neighbor. 1t was about five
o'clock in the afternoon when
Rolfe left his home, and as it was
understood that the neighbor would
not return before next day, the fami-
ly, consisting Of wife and threesmall
boys knew that they would be alone
with the hired man for the night.
Artles was a comparative stranger
to them all, having been at work
for two weeks only.sHe was quiet
man, and spent his leisure hours by
himself, never indulging in CONVEX
sation when not directly appealed
to. Still, neither Relfe nor his wife
found fault, or ever had occasion to
suspect that the ,laborer was other
than what he seemed.
son his arrival in the city Mr..
Rolfe partially concluded his bust
ness with the merchants and en-
gagged 1od dgings at a hotel on Larned
street. Abont nine o'clock in the
evening, while seated in the office
smoking, Mr.. Rolfe says he began
to tremble and feel nervous shocks,
which so increased that in a short
time he could scarcely hold his
pipe between his teeth. He walked
several times across the room, went
into the open air, but the feeling did
not pass away. His thoughts kept
| recurring to the laborer at home,
and he called to mind the features
of Artles and the fact that he had
several times caught him peering
about the room where a bu-
reau was standing that con-
tanned money to go toward put
ting on addition on the house. AT
ten o'clock Rolfe decided to go
home. He was laughed at by his
neighbor, who told him that the
feeling was the first symptom Of
| chill fever; and that Rolfe would

thing had passed off peacefully.
RoIfe hesitated for some time, but

balance of his things before the

turn home.

THE CROPS In FLORIDA.

A letter dated Jacksonville, Fla, June
Il, from s reliable gentleman who has
travelled extensively. through that State,
says: - ~ b.. '
The corn crop will be fair one; the
cotton crop looks even, fair and good, the
cold weather has retarded its growth,
yet with the present warm weather 1t
will soon catch up; the fields are un.
usually well prepared, the crops planted
with care, fences good, ground clean from
grass, and there is an evident attention
paid to thorough culture. As yet there
is no caterpillar and some argue that the
dry hot weather will tend to destroy and
prevent them. Sugar4cane and sweet
potatoes are looking well. Fruit trees,
grapes and vegetables are fiourishing.
On the whole, we may calculate on fair
year, and at present prices a profitable
return to the farmers. Labor is more
reliable and uniform, crime less preva-
lent"

Big Land SwfadIe-BRrgaia and Cor

LEAvENwoRTH, KANSAS, June l7.-The
Times and Conservative to-day publishes
a history of the Usage land swindle, from
which it appears that Secretary Brown
ing, Gen. Ewing, Gen. Sturgiss, of Chi
cago, Mr.. Taylor, Commissioners Of Indian
Affairs, Senator Pomeroy and Repre-
sentative Clark, of Kansas, were all in
terested in it. The statement says that
at the last session of Congress the treaty
was so amended that the Atchison, To
peka and Santa Fe railroad would have
100000 acres of the Usage land, and
Pomeroy's brother-in>lsw, OWNING, was
to sell the land at an advance of eight
cents per acre, netting the sum of $242
00oy for Pomeroy's services in ratifying
the treaty. What would have been, and
what was decided by the ratification
of the treaty, was about as follows: Stur-
gis would make $2,500,000, Thomas
Ewing, jr., S250,000, probably divide
with Brouning and Taylor to the amount
of $25,000; Pomeroy's brOther-in-law
$4,000, and Sidney Clark wanted al
least $4,000 in lands and bonds. q
