his motive in going upon the roOfof MT. How, lands house, was to steal the lead, and that being detected it was sOlemnly his determina- ton to have thrown his pufsuer from the roof at the cost of his life.

 He obtained access to the roof of MT. How lands house though the one adjoining, which he was permitted to doenpOn his stating that he had been sent by Mr. Coles 70 examine the state of the roof for the purpose of ma king some repairs.

 Williams has heretofore maintained, as we Iearn, an irreprOachable character for indus try and prObity, and in his pecuniary affairs is tOIcrably independent. What could prompt him to steal few shiings worth of lead. when he had been afforded opportunities, had he heen so inclined, of appropriating proper " tO much larger amount without the slightest fear of detection, is matter beyond the reach even of conjecture. He assigns as lhe canse, intoxicaiiOn hut those who know him best are inclined to ascribe his conduct to an alienation of the mind, which, as they al- lege, has been more or less apparent for seve- ral months.

Montreal, June Extraordinary CGse.- most extraordinary case came before the Court of King Bench of this District, on Sat urday last, the nature of which the following details will give some idea:

 young lady from Upper Canada. of the 1 name of McMilian, ahoutef6 years ofagr, was brought before the Court, on a writ of H0be- as Corpus. at inc instance of a man of the name of Kennedy. It appears in testimony before the Court. that this young man resi- ! ded for couple of years with the step. father l of the young lady in the capacity of clerk.- That having had, in consequence. frequent op- l portunities of seeing and cOn.ersing with her, ] he persuaded her for certain reasons to elope with him. They escaped through window from the second story ofhis house, by means of a ladder, during the night; md having en1- parked in a canoe, gained the opposite or American side of the St. Lawrence, and were married at Massena, by R anagistrate. In the meantime, the family having discov- cred their flight, the step. father and one ofthe Nncles of the young lady followed the fugi- lives, whom they overlook about nine o'clock in the morning, two hours after the marriage ceremony had been performed. The young lady appeared very mnch affected and seem ed to be very glad to be erejoined by her friends, with whom she consented to return, when asked so to do, having declared that Romeo Kennedy had deceived her. Some time afterwards she was placed by her father. at her own request, in one of the Nunneries ofthis city. Kennedy discovered her retreat, and by a writ of Habeas Corpus, had the young lady brought before the court. The Judge having heard the parties by their attor- neys, and read the several affidavits on both sides, decided, that as Miss M'Miilan was not detained against her will, ihe writ of haheas corpus did not apply to her casc-especialy as she was at liberty to leave the Convent when she pleased, and as she declared in her own affidavit before the court, that she was desirOus not to be restored to Kennedy. The writ was discharged accordiGgly. l Ihe ChoterG.-In noticing the prevalence of this desOlaiiUg scourge, in our paper fthe 5th inst. we gave a complete list of the cases and deaths that had occurred in our city up to that date.
