THE FUNERAL of the murdered mother and sister tok place yesterday (Thursday) a:ternoon, from the house where the terrible crime wag committed in Oakland. The services commenced at one o’clock and were closed soon aftor three, at which time the sad cor/ége left for Hartford. Rev. Mr. Loomis, of the Con tional church, and Rev. Mr. Mather, of the Methodist church, conducted the services—the former making very 1m: ve remarks, and the latter reading the scripture Fosoons and offering the prayers, The singing—slow and solemn—was by the members of the choirs from both the Congregational and Methodist churches of Manches- ter. The services were conducted in front of the house, under the large trees. The rema:ns of the mother and sister, in separate coffins, with the lid off and the faces exposed to view aateee ‘a glass, lay in the centre of the large concourse of people. The faces of both victims looked, in spite of the fearful wounds, much more natural than was ex- pected. The daughier, owing to the ghastly, hideous axe wound which cut out the right eye, was laid on her right side. The mother’s wounds were neatly dressed and properly sewed up, but were of course of such a nature that they presented a shocking sight. The funeral cortege consisted of a hearse for each ody and a long line of carriage and single teams, It reached Spring Grove Cemetery, in this city, late in the afternoon, where both mother and daughter were buried in one grave, on the family Jot where the father was lard to rest some eleven years ago. The crowd present at the services in Oakland num- ered over one thousand of both sexes, SAD INCIDENT IN THE MANCHESTER TRAGEDY. In connection with the murder at Manchester a sad in- cident is related by the New Haven Journal as follows :— A most sad incident in connection with the horrid murder comm'tted in the town of Manchester on the let inst. took place tn this city yesterday morning. A gen- tleman was at Belle dock awaiting the arrival of the steamer Alice E. Preston, intending to take a trip on her. While there an acquaintance spoke to him of there havin, ben a murder committed in bis town. He inquire what were the names of the persons killed? His inform- ant not recollecting, a paper was procured and the names read, when the man threw up his arms with groan and exclaimed, “Mrs, Starkweather, my God, she is my sis- ter!”? and immediately started on a run up toward te le street, exhibiting the most intense agony of mind. ‘went to the depot and took the cars for ford. Aquatics. THE BOAT RACE YESTERDAY—WEBB THE WINNER— ANOTHER RACR TO-DAY. Considerable excitement was manifested yesterday among the sporting fraternity of this city and Harlem, who were drawn together to witness the single ecull match race between William H. Webb and Joe Foote, both of New York, for # purse of two bundred and fifty dol- lars, A crowd of about two hundred persons, consisting mostly of boatmen and shoulder-nitters, attracted by the announcement of the race in the morning papers, con- gregated during the afternoon at the foot of One Hundred and Tenth street, from which place the boats were to start, Bets were freely offered, while they were waiting for the sport to commence, of one hundred to seventy-five on Webb, with but very few takers. The distance to be rowed over was five miles, and is known as the Empire Course, and lies between Ward’s Istand and New York, The men have been in training for over three weeks, and both appeared to be in excellent condition, Foote being the heaviest man by some ten pounds. The boats were precisely alike in every particular, being fourteen fect five inches long and weighing sixty pounas. While the rain was podmzg dowg the crowd were very patient, aud amused themselves by occasions!!¥ punch- ing cach other, drinking poor whiskey and smoking bad cigars; but so soon as the shower had ceased they gave vent to their pent-up impatience in various waye— shouting, cursing, &c. At lemgth, everything being ready, the men were brought out from the boat house, when a rush imme- diately followed to obtain good positions from which to view the race. The men having taken the position assigned them, at thirty-five minutes past the signal was given, and the boats shot forward amid the cheers of the assembled ‘ourse, The scene was truly picturosque. Every available spot was occupied, and high up into the rig- ging of p that lay at the wharf wore a large number of small boys, apparently as contented as if they were on the grou Of small boats accompanied the contestants aro’ the entire course, and only ceased to pull their oars when the race was ended. The boats arc named the Unknown, pulled by Joe Foote, and the Joe Brown, by William’ H. Webb. The Joe Brown gained a slight advantage at the start, which itimproved wonderfuliy before the close. Heavy odds were offered on the Joe Brown, and one time they were doubled. The Brown turned the stake boat one minute abead of the Unknown, and won the race by coming in six minutes ahead of her antagonist. Messrs, §. B. Kehoe, Joe Coburn and John Grogan acted as the judges upon this occasion. There will be another boat race to-day, and appear. ances indicate a very rev ar ate of it. The matoh 1s to be in two-oared for the championship of the East river, and will be rowed to-morrow, at four o'clock, from the foot of Fifty-fourth street round Blackwell's Island, a distance five The contestants are Messrs.

In accordance with the announcement made in these columns, the service over the remains of the late Lieutenant Abram Best De Groff, of Company I, Seventy- first regiment N. G. SN. ¥., took place yesterday at the Methodist church, Eighty-sixth street, York- ville, The services wero participated in by Come panies I and H of the regiment, the members of which convened at Contre Market at twelve o'clo¢k, and started at one P. M. for Bighty-third street, and marched to the residence of the deceased» After the funeral discourse and ceremonies at Yorkville, the body with its escort passed to the wharf, and the re. mains were placed upon the Dean Richmond for trans- portation to Saratoga, where the burial proper will take place. Company H, of the Seventy first regiment, turned out twenty-two men, Lieutenant Commanding Amos L. See. Company I had out about twenty men, Captain Tyson in command.

Mr. Taché was a gentleman who had been in- timately connected with the history of the province in the past. Born at ®t. Thomas, on the Lower St. Law- rence, in 1796, of an ancient French family, he early displayed a taste for military ‘pursuits; and the war of 1812 gave him an opportunity of gratifying his military aspirations, and/he served with ‘distinction asan officer of the Canadian Chasseurs. At the close of the war he abandoned the sword, and for some years practised as ‘a physician. In 1841, about the time of the union be- ‘ween Upper and Lower Canada, Mr, Taché en! Par- lament, of which he had been @ prominent member until 847, In the-rebellion of 1837 Mr. Tache played no insig- nificant part..He warmly sympathized with the move- «ment of MoKenzie and Papineau to sever the connection with the mother country, as will be seen in the following resolution, presented by him at a large gathering in Lower Canada, which set forth that “the people of this province cannot look upon the resolutions:of Ministers and of Parliament, and the pretended laws to be based thereon, otherwise than as a rdptare of the social contract which exists between the mother country and this pro- vinee, by depriving the latter of all guarantee for Mberty and good government, replacing the same n for under the tyrannical pretext of a HO a ohio they were not the judge; and that such an order of things can continue only 80 long as a people whom it is determined to crush cannot overthrow it.”? Another resolution passed at this mocting deciared “that the people of this country should be stamped with de, Jon and slavery were it to allow itself to be taxed and {ts money to be violently robbed from the Public cheat, to be distributed among perverse servants, without the sanction of its late representatives, to whom alone belongs the nght to appropriate the same.”” At the same meeting it was reso!ved, That the people of the provinc having nothing to expect from the other side of the Atlantic but oppression and injustice, the pe- tion wisely adopted by the reformers of Upper Canada, tending to extend our relations of commerce and reciprocal friendship with our happy neighbors of the Unjted States of America, be proposed for the acceptan-e of the inhabitants of this province, to be presented to | Congress at its earliest sitting. i In 1848 Mr. Taché became Deputy Adjutant General of the province, which position he filled only one year when he became a Minister of the Crown and a warm advocate of reform measures, In 1856 he was chosen Premier by Sir Edmund Head. In 1857 he resigned the Premier- ship, and a year later was knighted for his distinguished services, notwithstanding his former treason to the mother country. From November, 1857, until 1864, when he was again called to the Premiership, Mr. Tache remained in private life. A rebel in 1837, a stanch re- former in 1848, he died on Sunday a thorough consorva- tive and admirer of the British crown. His career has indced been a strange and successful one, THE CROPP, ETC. The crops, which a few wecks ago promised 0 well, have been materially injured by the recent rains. The weevil and wheat fly ave also made their ‘appearance in some sections, and it is feared that when the crop is gathered it will be found to be ashortone. I have re- cently travelled several hundred miles on horseback through Western Canada, and I found much of the wheat damaged badly by the ‘rast and heavy rains that have ‘also visited Ilinols, Lowa, Michizan and Wisconsin. The Canadians have had three short crops in succession, and if this one fails there will be much grumbling and not a little sufering. This province. presents a striking con- trast to the United States on the question of labor. Here the best mechanics only obtain from six to ten dol- lars per week ; printers got about seven and eight dollars per week; laborers, five and six dollare, and editors—the men who do the heavy work on the first class papers— only fifteen dollars, Board here is froin four to eight dollars per week; so that a “family man’? is constantly living from hand 'to mouth. TUE SMUCGUNG BUSINESS is carried on to an mited extent, .notwithstandi the eagerness displayed by the officials on both sides of the rivers to detect persons guilty of the offence. De- troit Windsor seem to be the Flysium for ‘female smug-golars,” who have invented many ingenious de- vices for ‘ing on an illicit traffic. It has transpired that a distilling firm at Maitland, C. W., has robbed the government of over thirty-seven’ thousand dollars by an evaion of the revenue laws, This, andthe seizure of another establishment on the St, Lawrence for a like off-nce, has caused the Canadian government to open their ¢yes as to the importance of moro strenuous efforts to prevent smuggling. While on this subject, 1 iy remark that it las come to my knowledge, inci- dentally, that a Toronto firm are extensively engaged in the smuggling of tobacco into the United States, I learn that in less than two years they have cleared twenty-seven thousand dollars on the one article of plug tobaceo, which they purchase here at’ about thirty- seven anda half cents per pound, and sell in Boston and New York at @ profit of three or four hundred per cent, ‘THE PreABURE TRAVEL on the St. Lawrence this year ts fully as large as previous eeagons. Nearly ail who visit Niagara Falls extend the:r trip to the lake and the St. Lawrence, either by the American Ex, line of steamers on the American side or the Royal Mail line from Toronto to Quebec. The seonery of the St, Lawrence and the Thowand Islands has long been the adm. ration of tourists who love to contem- pus the grandeur of the swift tlowing river and the white foaming rapids that freso the bosom of the beautiful river. With the opposition lines of palatial boats fires are quite low. Tourists can take vail to Kingston, pass the Thousand Islands hy daylight, onjoy the music of the boiling rapids, under the great Victoria Bridge at Montreal, and then either continue their excursion to the pretty Saguenay river and the sea shore, or switch off at Montreal to the White Mountains and Portland via Grand Trunk Ralway. The Grand Trunk Rail way manager, Mr. Brydges, with a commendable spirit, bas ‘arranged for the sale of excur- mon tickets. by Mr. Beach, his azont at she Metropolitan Hotel, New York, from New York to the falls, thence by rail or steamer to Montreal, and by rail to Lake Champlain, Saratoga, White Mountains, Port. land, Albany, and back to New York, for the emall sum of $87 60. These tickets are good until November, and & very jarge number of tourists gre availing themselves of the terms to see the unequalled scenery that the trip affords. THE AFRICANS’ HOLIDAY. This is the Ist of August, the Afpicans’ independence day, d it ie being very generally observed in Canada, All the darkies of the city have suspended business, are dressed in their ‘best bib and tucker,” and are out in the groves on the lake and tn the public gardens, holding thetr annual jubilee, A large numb:r have gone to st. Catharine’s on an excursion on the Silver Spray. They are a happy people here, but go aristocratic in their ide: that they maintain a singular exclusiveness, never asso. ciating “wid de miserable white trash,” if I except those £7, ngs who have taken to “dar bussome”’ fading white uties, who, despairing of ever obtaining white hus- bands, forced to be the heads of a numerous progeny of Recs gig | pickaninnies. A viry large number of colored men here revel in the possession of likely look- ing white wives, whose tastes are for deep mourning colors. 4 VETERAN BIMTISN REGIMENT. From the frequent opportunities 1 have had to witness the evolutions of British ‘iments ia Canada, I had about arrived at the conclusion that soldiers on your side of the lake far excelled in all those qualities that 5 to make up the veteran soldier. I had not then seen the poapimmor Fa ee hoor | of odd jureday in company wit el Campbell, the volunteer force, I attended the ceremony of ‘“troop- ing the colors’ by this regiment, and I must do Colonel 4 his regiment the justice to say that I hi never seen a regiment in Canada or the United State: cel the Forty-soventh in the manual of arms, mo’ m of the line or soldierly bearing. This is one of the few British regiments that distinguished themselv. in the Crimea, as appears from the number of medals that adorn the persons of officers and men, and which nA — to reverence with a veneration bordering upon ry. Tan The Canadiai litictat rosa be ded iticians and press have expen: their wrath er) their floundering. For three weeks they have been tossing about like the whale who vainly endeavored to digest Jonah, and having digested Potter, who did not set well on their stomachs, they are ow recovering from th of the annexation emetic. It is to be hoped that they feel better, At least I think 80, for since the resignation of Mr. Wood they are ex- tremely quiet, if I except @ few little snarling seven by ten re away out on the skin of the province, who Still bark, Mr. Potter returned to Montreal last Satur- day, and I have not yet heard of any serious conse. quences resulting, notwithstanding the oft reiterated as. sertions that he would be mobbed if he ventured back, A NEW GEOGRAPHER NFEDED. Years ago, when I went to school, I remember the je used to ask us what Canada was celebrated for, and the answer forthcoming was, ‘For hor lumber, fish, furs and cereals.’ Things have chan, our geographies were made, and a new tion is needed. When Morse in is put in press it would be well to amend it by ‘for arson, burglary, der, rape, thoft and general political corruption.” body in the United States supposed that there superabundance of crime there; but the developments daily made here by ie proms stamp this province as the lest spot this aide of pandemonium. —* CANADIAN DEPENCRS, The quostion of defence is one that has taken « strong hold upon the public mind here, and the government seems determined to use it to the best advantage. Some think it is going to be too costly an experiment, as it is put down in round figures at fifty million of which haa to be raised by loan. There is li however, of Parliament agreeing to any will be made for the defence of the Provinces. This much May be said ae regards the active militia force-—that it is =m falling away. Not long since wo boasted wonty-five thousand men; but I greatly fear that little more than balf the number could be mustered now in cane of emergency, Probably some effort op che part of the government might infuse a new epirit into the militia movement, MACDONALD ON ANNREATION, Bon Joba A.

Last Thursday morning the madman (for such he was, although 1t did not so appear at thet Ee, took lodgings fer himself and three smal! children, the Prescott ‘House, corner of Van Buren and Clark streets, re; his name as Henry Smith, Saratoga Sprin a the afternoon he went to Mr. Fox, the landlord, and de- sired to deposit some money with him, saying that he was going to die that night. Itwasthen discovered for the first time that his mind wasderanged, and the | Raynor. hip Me landlord despatched a messenger to Sergeant Hickey, of es Nep' the police, to inform him of the fact. The sergeant re- | yin's'Dickinnon, turned word that, unless the man was violent, the best | ~ geamship Zodiae, Buel plan to adopt would be to retain him at the house and | Steamship Alhambra, see what demonstration he would make. The man, to- Steamship Hatteras, gether with his children, took tea’ that evening among other guests and retired to his room. The pi r be- ing constantly enga, about the affairs of his house, thought no more of his mysterious patron until the nex! evening, when one of the servants informed him that Mr. Smith had not been at table since the day previous. The porter was sent to his room to look after the matter, but was refused admittance, Mr. Fox then went up himself, but was also informed that he could not enter. “Why don’t you come and get something to eat?” said he. “Your children are-hungry. They have had no food for twenty-four hours. ’? ‘We want nothing to eat,” was the reply; ‘‘we are going toxlie to-night,” Mr. Fox then sad, ‘If you do not open the door I shall ‘be compelled to force it open. To which Mr. Smith retorted :— “Well, Tam going to dic; but if you break that door down you will die before I do.”’ Here the conversation ceased, and Mr. Fox sent again for assistance, In ashort time two policemen arrived, and together the party of three endeavored to force the door, but dia not succeed. Besides being bolted and locked, it was braced with a bar off the bedstead. They next tried to enter through a side door, which led into ‘an adjacent room, but that, too, had been fastened, by tying one corner of a bedquilt to the knob, and the op- posite corner to the bedstead, The door was opsned a few inches, however, and Mr. Fox, placing his hand in- sideto vate the bedquilt, réceived a terrible blow from away.
