f.. only daughter of Mr. James 4. and Mrs.
NJ: j. jackson :. aged 10 years, months and
day.
Early, bright, transient,
Chaste as morning dew,
She sparkled, was exhaled,
And went to Heaven"
How awfully startling it is to hear of the
death of a friend, whom but few days be-
fore, we saw in the full bloom and vigor of
health But it should remind us that God
works in a mysterious and inscrutable
manner. ellis ways are not our ways
And while we weep over the memory of one
SO young, so noble, so pure, who took her
last long journey after long suffering, we
are assured God orketh all things for good.
Amid suffering and pain, she has laid down
her burden of life in the summer-dressed
Garden of the Slumberers-her mortal tegu.
ment wasting away in the cold obstruction
of the grave; her gentle spirit, like a gem,
resting upon ''the bosom of its Maker and its
God" .g,.G.i
:. Every one loved her" How pure life
is that which has such a record. Fair and
gentle she grew, kind always, dutiful and
afectionate daughter. May her memory be
ever fresh and green in the hearts of those
left behind. 49,. -.--..,,..-. .......

A ST. LOUIS HORROR.
A wan Murdered ana rhrown Into tho River

A ~nn Murdered ana Thrown Into tho River
The Missouri Democrat of April says:-
On Saturday morning last, some fishermen
saw the body of man floating in the eddy,
between the mouth of Cahokia creek and the
Pittsburg dyke, on the Illinois shore. They
went out in skiff, caught the body and towed
it to the east shore. Captain McLane, of the
East st. Louis Metropolitan Police Force, was
notified, and he teegraphed to Belleviile to the
Coroner of st. Clair county, Mr.. Torg, who was
unable to attend to the case till yesterday.
Upon examining the body of the deceased, it
was discovered that foul murder had been
committed. The head of the victim was beaten
almost to jelly, apparently with q stick of
wood or some dull instrument. The legs were
crossed below the knees, and tied tight with a
a check gingham handkerchief was tied, with
made fast to something, probably heavy
weight to sink the body.
The remains had the appearance of having
been in the water some four or five days.
The following is a description of the de-
ceased-fve feet eight inches in height, blue
eyes, dark hair, short cut grey whiskers, and the
age of the man when living probably about fifty
years. He had on brown woolen knit jacket,
blue check overshirt, grey flannel undershlrt,
white and black striped cashmere pants, woollen
drawers, white woolen socks and heavy boots.
The palms of the hands of the deceased were
hard and had the appearance of being those of q
laboring man The pockets were empty, and
there was nothing whatever found on the body
to indicate the name or lead to the identification
except what is given above. The verdict of the
Coroner's jury was that the unknown deceased
had been murdered.

-, Thursday, April 2, 1870. Z
There is continued easy feeling in the money
market, though there is rather more activity to-
day, both in call and time loans. On the former
the general rate is per cent though occa-
sional transactions for round sums on Govern
ment pledges are effected at Az per cent. Dis
counts remain easy at Cor per cent. for first
class names-the lower figure being confined to
the banks. Prime mercantile acceptances are
still in demand and scarce, owing to the unsatis-
factory condition of general trade.
Gold is dull but strong, with sales nuetuating
between 112 and 1925.
Government bonds are very steady, and we
notice a general advance, save in 10-40s and
currency 6s.
st the Stock Board there was considerable
activity and prices advanced. Sales of State 6s,
second series, at LOG, and City 6s at 1907 for
the old and at 102@102A for the new bonds.
Reading Railroad was stronger; sales at 400

FROM THE DOMINION.
Red River News.

TORONTO, April I'm the House of Com
mons last night Mr.. Cameron asked If the Gov
ernment had any farther intelligence from the
Red River, and whether they were in position
to give any further information than had al
ready been laid before the House; also, what the
Government intended to do in reference to the
murder that had recently taken place at Fort
Garry.
Mr.. John A. Mcdonald said he could only
state that the Government was fully aware of
and appreciated the gravity of their position.
We have done all we could during the winter,
and, indeed. ever since the events of last Octo-
Der, till now. We understand and fully appre-
ciate the responsibility that rests upon us, and
may say we have been IN constant communica-
ton with Her Majestys Government. l may
add, further, that the two governments are in
accord and in union, and for one object, and
that is to retain that country as q portion of
Her Majesty's dominion, and to assert law and
order there.
We are acting in complete union with her
Majesty's Government, and a line of conduct
has been settled upon. What that line of con-
duct may be must be withheld from the House,
for to communicate it now would simply be
giving information at an improper
time, that would very soon be sent to
improper quarters. But l must say her
Majesty's Government, while acting in
accord with us, have in the first place approved
of the course we advised, and are cooperating
with us in carrying out that course, and am
sure that course will be carried to successful
completion at no distantda Further than this
II would be improper for me to say.
