The .celebrated informer, .James Oayey.'huß ntet his fate at tb,eh,ands of an assassin. No one will feel inclined to regret the fate whioh has overtaken this man, His edun cation and standing m society as a member of the Dublin Corporation should have been barrieis to his lending himself to the murderous conspiracy which robbed Great $ri£ain-p,f two faithful officers, but instead of that he jojned himself to a murderous orew, who took human lives for no other reason than that they were officers of the British Government. By turning informer he escaped the Jbangmau'd

rop?, but an aveuging Nemesis has puisued him, and on the deck of a steamer at Port Elizabeth he was Rhot down like a dog by one of his countrymen. No clou 'it thelaw will require: the life of O'DonueJl.Carey's ; ssiissin. Tiie mnp«ty of the law musf. be viniiie-i'f- !.

Also, i'ii3 be-t p-»s-ib!e thing timt could have happened t .■> Carey h:is happened to him. He was a marked man, and his life would have been made a burden by his being watched and dogged wherever he weufc. On the whole, therefore, thia last sad scene m the sickening tragedy is a litting close.
