Our village, and indeed the entire length of Yonge street was impassable. Gangs of men went out on Wednesday to cut a track between Richmond Hill and L‘Thornhill. Some two miles below our village the drifts are from four to sixteen feet high. No communication has been had with Toronto since Monday. Many travellers have been. storm stayed in our Hotels during the week, and will be for some days yet.

The train from the north got fast in another snow bank a little to the south of King station you the same evening, and remains there at the present time (Thursday noon). We have no fear for the passengers being starved out; in both neighbour- hoods there are many comfortable and liberal farmers who will see that they neither want for food or warmth.

Our St. Hyacinthe exchanges‘ contain a report of what appears to be another Provencher poisoning case. Le Courrier says : For the last two days the St. Hya- cinthc jail has contained the supposed author of a murder by poison similar in its general details to the Provencher- Boisclair case. Joseph Ruel, the prisoner implicated, is accused of causing the death of Toussaint Boulet, farmer, of L'Ange Gardien,by administering poison. The following are the facts so far as they were brought out at the inquest held on Saturday by Mr. Blanchard. It appears that Ruel had illicit relations for more than a year past with Arselie Messel, Boulets‘ wife. In Noveuber, 1866,Ruel became a widower,and shortly afterwards proceeded to board at Boulet‘s. Several months ago Boulet became ill with a slow disease, the character of which has not yet been defined, but which Ruel, alleging that he had some medical experience unâ€" dertook to treat. He purchased the medi- cines at a doctors in L’Ange Gardicn, and personally administered them to Bon- let who took them without hesitation. At ‘ the same time Rue] was in the habit of purchasing poison 'from’ Dr, b‘rucrtin, of St. Cesaire, for the purpose as he said for killing foxes.‘All the Witnessses never- , theless agree that the prisoner never trap- ped foxes, which besides are very scarce 1 in that locality. On the 6th instant ‘Ruel- again went to Dr. Guertin's and asked him for a still more powerful poi- son than he had been in the habit of getting Dr. Gncrtin replied that he had none, and gave him an order on Dr: Due VCl't, apothocary at St. Hyacinthe, who delivered the strychnine and arsenic men- tioned in the order. On Tuesday night. Boulet was in pretty good health, and" played cards , until midnight. Next morning, Wednesday, the 12th instant, at about half-past seven, Ruel, assisted by Onesime’, Messier, sister-inelaw of the deceased, administered a doze of medi- cine to Boulet and then left for the woods In ten minutes or so Boulet vomited, and was then seized with horrible don‘- vulsions whichlasted until he died at nine o’clock. Several minutes after Boulet's death Ruel came back to the house, and received the announcement with a good deal of sang frot'd expressing surprise at it suddeness. He afterwards took the necessary steps to have the deceased in- terrcd, and immediately proceeded to Dr Guertin, who was absent at the time, in order to hand him the vials of poison purchased at Dr. Duvcrt’s. Suspicion somehow immediately arose, and Coxoner Blanchard proceeded to hold an inquest, the result of which was that Rue] was arrested on Saturday and com- mitted for trial at the court of Queen’s Bench. in May next. The postmortem was held by Dr. Jacques of St Hyacinthe, and Dr. Pou- lin, of Ste Marie. ‘ The following facts were established :-Bluish colouration of the skin, general tumefaction of the cell- ulal tissues, especially on each side of the neck; mouth open and dark blood issuing therefrom; geucral congestion of the lungs; superior extremity of the left lung adherent to the costal pleura; flow of blood in the throatic cavity; brenchial tubes filled with dark blood; heart and its envelopes in their normal condition ; cavities quite empty; the liver and gall ladder in their normal state; stomach distended with gas. About one ounce and a half seroâ€"mucu- ous fluid in the mucuous membrane; the brain, kidney and bladder offered no unusual appearances. The spleen was nongested, and the cerebellum a little softened. The bowls were carefully placed vases and sealedyp by the_ Corgmef. Ruei appeared to be agitated during the inquest, but was quite self-possessed in his cell His intelleat is said to be weak. He has enjoyed, generain speak- ing, a pretty fair character, but his neighbors, nevertheless, are not surprised at the gravity of the accusation now brought against him. He belongs to a respectable family, and it is said that his father, who is still alive, is 100 years old. Boulet’s wife was to have been arrest. ed yesterday.

Washington, Feb; 22.-â€"Adjutant-General Thomas was arrested this morning at eight o‘clock, on a warrant issued by Judge Cur- ter, on an affidavit of Secretary Stanton, for a violation of the fifth section of the Tenure of Office Act. Gen. Thomas, this morning, repaired to rhe office of Secretary Stanton, and was immediately ordered to the room used by him as Adjutant General, which order Gen. Thomas refused to obey. Both Gen.

Thomas, in accordance with y the President’s orders. The excitement here is intense. Soon after the Senate went into executive session, a committee of four Senators proceeded to the War Office and informed Secretary ‘Stanton that pending " anyaction, it; wasthe desire of the Senate that 1 he (Stanton) should retain oflice and disre- gard any orders from the President to the ‘ contrary.

A“ MAN ROBBED AND MURDERED.â€"The Seaforth Exposimr Says :-â€"-On Saturday night, 15th inst, as‘Mr. Constanc DeBecker was returning from Seaforth, after disposing of a load of grain, and had the money he reeeived for it with him, he was met oh the road, between Wroxeter and Belmore, by a young man named Hogg, who stopped 'him and then proceeded to accomplish his de- sign. Mr. DcBecker was struck several blows on the head with some heavy weapon, but as he had on a heavy fur cap, the blows did not appear to take the desired efiect. He received one or two strokes on one temple, which, from what we can learn,.left him in a position easy to be deprived of his efl'ects, which consisted of between one hundred and twelve, and one hundred and forty dollars: The first thing known of the horrible deed was next moming, when a team was seen leaving a shed by the hostiler, saying at the same time, that the homes should not be let go without a driver. When the boy went to the sleigh he found Mr. DeBecker lying speechless and almost insensihle. The only word he was heard to speak from that time. was to a neighbour whom he wanted to take him away from where he was, We learn that he died on Wednesday morning. The wretch who committed the heinous crime is a lad of twenty or twenty-one years. His father. we were told, lives in Buffalo, and keeps a book and stationery store there.

PRINCE ITURBIDE AND THE PAPAL ARMY. â€"The Roman correspondent ofthe Nazione sayszâ€"We have now for some days among us the nephew of Iturbide Emperor of Mex1eo, whom the unfortunate Maximilian had adopted as his son, and designated as his successor to the Empire. This young man has enlisted in the squadron of picked dragoons in the Papal army. It is said that he brought with him, and deposited in the highest hands, many documents relating to his unhappy adopted father. But I give this notice with much reserse, for now one may say that there scarcely comes a single person from Mexico, who, according to common report, does not bring with him some document relating to the Emperor Maximilian, so that if we listened to the various stories announcing at intervals the arrival of such documents, we must assume that. by this time, they would form not merely a folio volume, but an entire library. What I am assured about this youth is, his profound aversion to everything connected with the Imperial Government of France He seems to have inherited from his adop- tive father all the rancors which animated Maximilian diurng the last period of his empire against Napoleon III, by whom he believed himself deceived and betrayed? Our priests carefullv foster this anti-gallican aversion of the young Mexican, and to thei* cajolements it is owing that he has entered the Papal army. His military service is, naturally more a formthan anything else, but. the aim of our government has been secured; it isanother link, strengthening and completing the chain of that clerical and legitimist coalition whose effects if they are not soon paralyzed by some able. stroke of the governmont of the Emperor Napoleon ‘will, before long, make themselves felt at Paris.
