McLean, the Queen's assilant, has be- en committcd for trial, charged with hiin treason. llc reserved his defence. The evidence showed that the pistol was suf- ficiently elevated when he fired for the ball to have struck Her Majesty. Notwithstanding that a large majority of the English Commons agreed with Mr. Gladstone that an investigation into the Workings of the Irish Land Act would at. present be embarrassing, the commit- tee of the Lords has declared its intent- ion of proceeding with the enquiry.

FOREIGN. It is stated that there is strong indign- ation against the Czar among all circles of Russians. A planet of the 13th magnitude has be- en discovered by Palisa at Berlin on the 10th of March. The Panama. canal has already cost over 1000 lives and $25,000,000 and noth- l'ias bncn accomplished.

About 1823 a Mr. Chisholm made a quantity oi staves which \vcro lcf; in the bush not. paid for. It was said he failcdiu business and died soon after. My fatlier,auiong orvlicrs,sold him timber. From 1826 John Paul (Major), Paley Howland, Huctor Mc Lam and others, carried on stave making occasionally, {w several years. In .1818 Mr. Louis on- gsgcd extensively in the business, along. tllé main Humber, Little Hlimlwr and \Vest Brunch. A few parties cooked up their own oak and then sold the stoves in Lewis. The stoves were hauled (in strong sleds to the river buns ; thence floated to the lake ; from thence carried in schooner: to an island in the St. Lain once, below Kingston. Finally tho} were rafterl to Quebec, and shipped to the Old Country. I no) go t:i=;| away from the number, but the digression seems necessary. In Vaughan, near the Scotch Block, there is n. place \Vlllg‘ll cm called “Stave Bank,” because of the quantity of stavcs placed there preparw tor-y to being thrown into the r.vcr. A bank on Lot. 20, 61h Con of York, was similiarly named, and for the some Ten- sou. In 1839 Mr. Lewis gm. out 11. quan‘ tity of squared oak for the some destiv nation which was also driven down this river. 'lluit was his last timber tram action in these parts. lOVEILNMENT Worms. A About 1705 i. mill was build by Government, at the bend of still water, about two miles and 8. half from the lake ; also a. dock, when» a. yacht, for Governor Sinicoc, and two schoonch were built. The dock has long since disappeared About the some time an Indian trail was opened out into who! has since'becn known its the la'k’é“slioic road. There being no bridge across the Humber, waggons and foot passengeh wcre conveyed over on a scuw, for which convenience a charge was made. .f‘. home house was erected near the cm‘: ing, probably for the person lmvug: chargo of the ferry. \Vlio was liiu cnipicyod in that; capacity 1 have 12” been able to ascertain, but about 1815 ;. icotclnnan, named Mchzm had chin-v» oi the ferry and occupied the house a: :. tavern. This is said to have boon the only public house between Toronto um lluunliou at that time and for a ccnsidr; able time c'terwards. After the (lentil of McLean his widow continued to ll...‘ pcnsc hospitality at the tavern for many years. In 1853 a Mrs Creighton was 31:. charge, but the building was pulled down when the Great Western Railway was l‘ll course of construczion. The mill nboi :- nienticncd was built by a man beavirg; the appropriate name of Ncholus Millci. who was a inillwriglit brought from ita- State of New York for the purpose. Tbl‘ walls were constructed partly of logs and partly of boards. The mill was first run by a. Mr. Jilson, their by a Mr. Cusliman and lutur by a Mr. Stiles Stevens. Whether those parties rented the mill or core employed by Government is un- certain, lllOUéll it would seem that Jilscn at lean-t, had some control over it, as be at one time thought of converting it; im‘o a hull factory.
