Departure of Lieutenant General Doyle
from Halifax-Demonstratio by the
People.

HALIFAX. May 6, 1873.
The departure OF Lieutenant General Doyle from
this province to-day was the occasion OF very
tnusiastic demonstration the part Of the citizens,
who turned out in force to see him embark on
board the Allan steamer Hibernian. The day was
observed as holiday business was suspended for
q few hours, the schools were closed and from an
early hour the streets were thronged with people.
An extensive display OF bunting was made from
houses and from shipping Three battaons of
troops lined the streets for the distance
OF mile, through which the General passed
to the Dock Yard, where the embarkatiOn
took place. At halfpast eleven O'Clock, all
the arrangements being completed, the
General, dressed In very plain civilians suit and
accompanied by Lieutenant General O'Grady
Haley, the new Commander-in-Chiei, took his seat
in an open barouche, and was driven to the Dock
Yard. AS he passed through the two lines OF cit-
zen soldiery their bands played the national
anthem, and the men presented arms, the citi-
zens who crowded the sidewalks cheering Justify.
Arriving at the Dock Yard, where some two or
three thousand people were assembled, the Gen.
eral was received by the guard OF honor OF 100
men from the Eighty seventh Irish Fusilicrs. The
remainder OF this regiment were on holiday leave,
and were present to give q parting cheer to
their old Colonel. Calling them around hlm, he

friends including several ecclesiastical and pro-
vincal celebrities. AS the tug moved Off from the

slowly out OF port, the citizens assembled on the
wharves greeting the departing vessel and her
distinguished voyager with vivas and waving OF
handkerchiefs. General Doyle was genial old
gentleman, whose pr0tracted stay among the Nova
Scotans had caused him to be looked upon as
permanent resident. The citizens have during the
last few days We'd with each other In giving ex-
preston to the esteem and respect entertained for

PORTSMOUTH, N. H., May @, 1873.
Wilfred Lincoln Fits, OF Lowell who has been
suspected and held in jail at Exeter of committing
the tragedy Of cutting Johnny Emerson at Gambia
on the 18th OF last month, account OF which ap-
peared in the HERALD OF the 10th, has to-day been
examined before Geo. Il. Hodgdon, magistrate, at
the Congregational meeting house in Gambia. Mr.
Jno. s. II. Frink, county solicitor, appeared for the
State, and Judge David Cross. of Manchester for
the defence. At the opening Mr.. Frink stated that
the investigation was, first, for the purpose OF
ascertaining whether or not the Fits boy was
the person who committed the deed, and then
whether or not he was responsible Tor the act.
Some twenty witnesses were examined and, among
others, experts. The testimony although circuln-
stantial shows concusivey that Fits, after going
to bed on the night spoken OF, got up took an axe
and backless chair. walked through the mud nearly
mile, went into the windows OF house wherein
he had never been before, passed through several
rooms to the bedroom wherein the Emerson boy
was asleep and horribly chopped him up, then left

said he had very little doubt as to his irresponsi-

him placed under such bail as lie thought proper
for his appearance ut the October term OF the SUI

that should no new developments be shown he

Justice Hodgden placed the bail at $500, which Is
a virtual acquitta. That the boy could have done
this without getting spot Of blood upon him, and

securely fastened, commit the act as he did, and
back again to bed is profound and wonderful
mystery. The Fits boy returnel to Lowell with
