HARRIGAN DOOMED.
THE JURY FINDS HIM GUILTY OF MUIR.
DER IN THE FIRST DEGREE. s

THE JURY FINDS HIM GUILTY OF MUIR.
DER IN THE FIRST DEGREE. -
The Harrigan jury came into Court
a. 42O O'Clock, yesterday afternoon,
AFTER a deliberation OF four and three
quarter hours, with verdict of "guilty
IN manner and form as he stands indic-
ted" which was for murder in the first
degree. AT the request OF Mr.. Bird, of
counsel Tor the prisoner, the jury were
polled, but each. member asserted to the
verdict as announced by the foreman.
Harrigan evidently did not understand
the verdict. "What did they sayp what's
the verdict" he inquired Of the bailiGs,
but the latter without making any re-
sponse took him down stairs and locked
him In his cell. Then they told him of
his fate.
For an instant his countepance fell.
and his face grew pale, but be recov-
cred himself Immediately and remarked, /,
"Weil, guess can stand hanging as
well as a1y other man." His two daugt.
tiers, who have stuck to him faithfully
during the trial, were not with him
when the verdict was rendered.
The verdict was not unexpected. The
evidence was strong against Harrlgan,
and there was but liLtle room to con-
slider the plea OF insanity at the time OF
committing the deed, as set up by the
defense. In their deliberations the Jury
scarcely discussed this plea, but con-
tined theit deliberations solely in regard
to the grade Of homicide they should
find the accused guilty OF. Only two
favored the lowest grade, manslaughter,
while seven voted Tor murder in the
first degree aud three for murder In the
second degree. But six ballots were
taken, the most Of the time being spent
in calm, earnest discussion of the eyi.
dence and the charge OF the Court.
There was no unpleasant jarring what
ever, aud, in consequence, full un.
derstanding aud agreement was soon
arrived at.
1t is likely that Harrigan's counsel
will make a motion for new trial upon
The usual grounds in which case the
prisoner Will not be sentenced until the
motion is decided.

MR.. q. P. JOHNSON, EDITOR OF
GAZETTE :-In your report of the death
OF Samuel Townsend, yop make some
mistakes, which if you think proper,
may be corrected. Mr.. Townsend was
born in st. Georges Hundred, on the
farm of his father, on the north side of
Appointments creek, between Odessa
and Port Penn. He came to Charles or
Charleytown, now Townsend, abont
1916 or Al, the place was subsequently
called Townsend in respect TO MIR.
Samuel Townsend, not his father, as
you state.
In reporting the funeral, you state the

were conducted by Rev. 7. E. Bell, a
gentleman, now pastor OF the M. E.

BUILDING Law MADE
AGAINST THE MAN
AGEMENT.
LONDON, Dec. 8.-Despatches from
Vienna say that 400 bodies have now
been recovered from the ruins of the
Ring Theatre. The fourth gallery
has not yet been explored. 1t is be.
lieved that not single person escaped
from that gallery, and that very few
escaped from the third gallery. The
corpses last recovered are little more
than charred fragments. Gross ne
glect is charged against the manage
ment Of the theatre. The law pre-
scribes the use of oil-lamps in the
corridors of theatres SO that the exit
shall be discernable in the event of the
failure of the gas, but this precaution
was utterly neglected. The person in
in charge of the iron curtain between
the stage and auditorium appears to
have fed at the first alarm.
The official report states that, of 157
bodies taken to the hospitals, SO are
those of men and Al those of women,
and 20 are SO badly burned that their
sex is indistinguishable. II appears
that five watertaps above the stage,
which might have been of material as
sistance IN checking the fire at the
outbreak, were not used in consequence
of the panic which ensued.
The upper gallery must have fallen
into the pit, where the only remains
found are small fragments of bone.
Beyond doubt 900 gallery tickets had
been issued. One hundred holders OF
these are known to have jumped from
windows. Competent judges fear that
the loss of life will be found to be fully
TOO. Nothing has been heard of the
members Of The orchestra. The sub.
scription raised ON the Bourse now
amounts TO f2S,000. All newspapers
have opened subscription lists. The
Emperor has given large sum. An
official of the theatre states that it was
absolutely impossible to lower the iron
curtain owing to the frightful rapidly
with which the flames spread
A RELIEF FUND.
Ten thousand forins were subscribed

FARMING IN ENGLAND.
COMPETITION WITH AMERICA OUT OF
THE QUESTION.

COMPETITION WITH AMERICA OUT OF
THE QUESTION.
A despatch TO the New York World,
dated London, Nov. ~, 1881, says -
Farmers here are at length beginning
to realize the foolishness and vanity oi
trying to compete in wheat-growing
with the prairie farms of the United
States. But the British farmer is
sturdily conservative and will not yield
until absolutely compelled to do So
compelled he will be at no distant day,
and they are wise tenants who are
turning their wheat fields into pasture
and preparing to 60 into the grazing
and diary business. In this new line,
Of course, their profits will not be
large, for the Unsuitable Yankee is on
hand with Texan cattle, cattle reared
on land that pays no rent and cattle
in the .eeding of which oil cake is not
a costly factor. Still, If the British
farmer is destined to survive at all
this change will afford him at least q
chance. The reports Of the Govern
ment commissioners on the agricul-
tural depression will show that far
mers In the grazing counties have
escaped the wreck and ruin that have
fallen on the wheat-growing farmers /;
first, because the bad seasons have not
Injured them seriously, and, secondly,
because the British bullock is not so
hopelessly at the mercy of the foreign
producer as the British quarter of
wheat. The 2hmss the other day ad-
mitted tn It wheat-growing has become
q risky business, and counsellei the
farmer to take to diversified agricul-
ture." The farmers clubs are also
discussing the subject, aud a revolu.
tion in farming is imminent. 1t will
take years to convince all the farm ers
that America can beat England, and
the change will ruin thousands of
landlords and tenants alike, but the
step must be taken.
