'  Some important evidence has been given at the adjourned magisterial examinations of the three men who are charged with the murder of Police-constable Nicholas Cock at Whalley Range. A witness spoke to having heard John and Frank Hebron, the eldest of the brothers, use threats with reference to the deceased. Superintendent Bent had already deposed at the coroner's inquest that the footprints discoverod at the place corresponded with the boots worn by John and his younger brother William. A shopman with an ironmonger in Oxford-road said William Habron made inquiries of him about cartridges on Monday or Tuesday last week (the murder being committed early on the Wednesday morning). He only wanted two or three, and, on being told that they could not sell less than a box, which cost 3s. 6d., he did not make a purchase, explaining that he had others to consult in the matter.  Now the London season is, to all good intents and purposes over, most people who have not already settled the question are asking, "Where shall we go ?" The answer takes time. For one, an English or Welsh waterjug-place presents charms; for another, Yorkshire or Highland moors and trout streams put in an irresistible claim ; for a third, the beaten British tracks among low French roads or Swiss valleys allure to simple nature and high charges. For that large class, the unencumbered, we should suggest a run over to the States and briefly " doing " the World's Fair at Philadelphi t, where everyboly, from the British manufacturer to the Boers of the Orange Free St de of South Africa, is to be found exhibiting thp best his country can produce. Lately thd Pennsylvanvia Railway Company gave the members of all the foreign commissions and the foreign judges at the Centennial, a " dead-head ' nin over 1,100 miles in a special train. The "special" proceeded from Philadelphia to Pittsburg, thence to Erie, on the great lake of that name, raturifing by the Falls of Niagara, down the Susquehlnna River to Harrisburg, and so back to Philadelphia. This tour gave the experts an opportunity of seeing the country, and acquiring an insight into the wealth and industries of Pennsylvania. and may serve as a model for such trips to the other European visitors at the Exhibition. But there were other places that might well have received the attention of the tourists when they got as far north-west as the Great Falls. To Englishmen the noble St. Lawrence River, with its famous rapids, the Thousand _Wands, natural objects of the greatest beauty, the upper lakes of Ontario and Huron, the historic city of quebee, Montreal and Toronto, the commercial capitals of
