Death Of the knight of Kerry,

The champion general of athe.,, land
lords of Ireland has passed away in the
person of the Knight of Kerry Peter
Fitzgerald, lately created a -baronet.
The, Knight, could trace his Uances-
try: back to the time of the Nor
man invasion and his father was well
known as an advocate of Catholic eman-
cipation and as member of various
Governments, both before the Union Of
1880 md after that event.gl. He always
lived on the island of Valentia, which
he owned ard thence he sent from time
to time to the daily and periodical
press letters in defense of the territorial
interest. He was an able man and had
q good style of writing, 50 that his pro-
ductions were highly valued by his
clients and deemed worthy of attack by
his opponents; but, Of course, he gem
orally came to grief in the numerous en-
counters which he provoked or in which
he. entered OF, n,invitation. His last pro-
duction was an article in the Nineteenth
Oenttt,y for March, and it is remark able
that in that article he announced that
he would probably write no more. In
person he was some what notable. He
was about the middle height and of a
1.-THE and active frame, while face of
sharply,cut features y and large keen
dark eyes was. crowned by, a head of
snowy hair. 1t remains to add that,
though ihes was not accounted a bad
landlord, most of his tenants lived in
the most absolute wretchedness.-Dub-

SO, the event is worthy of more than q
passing notice. Down near Kingston,
Ont, a boy had aheated discussion with
some wasps and the latter got the bet
ter of the argument-at least they made
more pointed applications. As the
stings burned, the boy thought about
fighting his Satanic Majesty with fire.
1t was a, brilliant success. The next
neighbours barn and grain were the first
to 60, and the people barely escaped
from the dwelling house. The woods
and fields of wheat next went with
stacks and other combustible matter,
while every now and then the burning
of a house and barn added variety TO
the scene. The destruction was very
great, but as the delighted boy after
wards remarked, You ought to seen
