SUPERINTENDENT WEEP Of the Or
rhans' Home deserves great credit for
the energy and judgment displayed 10y
him in keeping those premises IN order
and for his constant devotion to his Off
cial duties. He is in town SO seldom
that one almost forgets that he is near
ncichbcr. The fact is, he attends
strictly 10 his business, and Is not only
greatly engrossed in his devotion there
to. but makes his industry illustrate ITS
own effectiveness and value. There Will
be no danger, this year. of any scarcity
of water for irrigating purposes. Mr..
Webb has constructed n reservoir above
the dam which serves the Chinese gar
deners near the Home, and has, there
fore, an independent supply OF water at
all times. This insures a full crop OF
potatoes ard other garden stuff. We
also learn that the six acres sowed to
alfalfa, give token of complete success.
This clover has just got past all danger
of frost and is healthy, vigorous and
strong. This will furnish ut least twenty
tons Of hay for the feeding of the COWS,
besides atforiing an abundant pasturage
With the needed additions to the build
ing, the Home and its surroundings Will
be one of the completest and most COM
Portable institutions OF Its kind.

CONFESSION OF A MURDERER.
Husband Killed At the Solicitation OF
the Wife.

BATHURST, N. B., April 30, 1874.
Gallian, who murdered Poulin, in Caraquet has
made confession. He says he was melted to the
act by Poulin's wife, who importuned him to kill
her husband, that they might consmmate
their liaison by marriage. The night before the
murder she sharpened knife and gave 1t to him,
telling him to be on the lookout for her husband
when he went to the WOODS Tor rails the next day.
He promised to do SO, and secreted the knife on
his person. When he met P0uin in the woods
next day ne said, "Poulin, am going to kill youn
His victim, on Bonded knees, lmplored him for
time to confess his sins to his priest, when he
would be willing to be killed at any time or would
leave the country. While Poulin was in this sup
plant attitude the prisoner struck him on the head
with stick. stunning him, and finished his bloody
the inquest that her mother went to Gallian's bed
one night aud told him that her husband was
asleep In the next room and there would be good
chance to kill him, but that she awakened and
warned her father and prevented the carrying out
OF the design.
