Lynch, on joinh-* the society, taok rnoath los'and by i*:i Watchword, obey his supeiior officers, and observe the laws of thebiother hood. The members were known by num ber . The name of the presiding officer was Thomas Kcatns. Lynch attended caUcd mectingsof the clubtwiceeachmonth. He did not isnow O'Donovan Bossa per somilly, but heatdhe had been to the club room. He^ was always spoken of there as the '■ old man," He knew, besides ('Connor, two members of the club, both named Sul livan The number of the treasurer of the club was 82, and of the secretary 13. The p.' sword for admission to the meetings was "Providence." There were other avo ciated clubs in New York—tbe Sarsfield on Thirty-ILccond-streei, the Owen Eoe and Thomas Davis in Military Hal, the Emmet on Eighth Avenue, and the Daviti and Tom Moore clubs. The district members were not known to each other. When v member was wanted to go on a mission, the president tead out his number, and told him to send him (the president) his addreps, He wps tent to Dr..Thomas Gallagher, who lived at Greenpoinf, L.I. Gallagher told him he was to go to London, and would know what for when he got there. G I )a<her gave him $50 and told him t'< take steera&e pa-sage on tbe steamer Spuiu, under the name of Norman. Gallagher gave him $100 nio.o and told him to go to London pnd inquiie at the. American Ex change for a letter addressed to him. Lynch did not want to go, as he had rel. • tiv.-s to. support, hut finally went to Gal lagher who gave him a smrll box. He ex amined this on the steamer, and finding it contained a spring which worked by pres sure, b:came alarmed and threw it into the sea, i>ynch reached London on March 22nd. Met Gii'tocher in London on the 27th, and on the 28tli they walked past the tcene ot the Westminßt'.r explosion, On hia poking G .lla jher if y '' that's what we aie going to do?" tbe latter answered "Yes." Gal. lagher viewed the Houses of Parliament, and'said, "They will make a greatcresh when they coma down," At this point Gal lagher shouted out from the dock, "\'ou are an infamous ]tar,"» Lynch repeated the statements of Gallagher as to what destruc tion was to be wrought.- He said he in fcircd from the talk of- his co-conspirator that O'Donovan' Kossa was in the scheme. Ho;>a was referred to ai " the old man." Lynch testified that he went to B;riniut:hain to .see Whitekead at Gallagher's request for some material. Gallagher gave him money to buy a pre sentable trunk, in which to put tbe stuff he was to get from Whitehead; Wbitehead put him in the way of getting an ind-a -rubber bag. Lynch confiimed pll the evi dence submitted at tbe hearing last Thurs day as to Grllsgher having called tor him and Fletcher, He Haiti that when White head wai loading the nitro-glycerine into the rubber bat he told lynch that fifty pounds bad been taken aw»y that day. Whitehead also (old him that he would siun know what the liquid wo , Whit-head■ here slioued, " You lie, yr-u traitor 1" ; <■ ' In London Gallaeher snd tbe witness parsed Scotland Yardj anc Gallagher said : 'That is the hcidqusrtrri ot the d<'OC lives; it will come down tw." ■ 'GaMagh^r suid lie was st.yisg at the Charing Cross iintel, and gave the witness seven pounds, eaymg : "Don't run short. The old mm will provide for us." Lynch farther testified that Gallagher met him when he returned from Loudou U> .Birmingham .with the mho-glycerine. He had never seen any persons bofore ex cept Gallagher and Whitehead. Both spoke .of Mending another man to London, but did riot mention any name. The witness spoke tv a weak and indis tinct voice, and. at one time appeared about to faint. At the conclusion of his testimony, and while bis deposition was being read, he did faint, and was removed from the court room, i . Tbe examination was adjourned until to morrow. Bernard Gallagher has made a statement to the effect that he is a native of Scotland, and that he returned there from America to woik as an ironmoulder; that his brother, Dr. Gilla^her, paid his passage, but be was ignorant of the doctor's busi ness, , Bernard says lie la not a Fenian or a member of any secret society.

DESTRUCTIVE MISSISSIPPI TORNADO.

Great Loss of Life and Property. New Orleans. La., April 23.—The |"Times Democrat's" Wesson, Miss., special says i— A frightful cyclone passed over Wesson and the town'of Beanregard, a mile above this place, about lour o'clock yesterday evening. The wind foe tLe past three days had been blowing a gait, and lowering clonds indicated the approach of the cyclone. It wan known some min utes by the deep rumbling sound,, and the windows in dwellings rattling violently, and many thought it an earthquake. Ihe ■ thunder and lightning were terrific. Fences were torn down, trees uprooted and cast 100 yards away. East of the railroad the damage was light, but in the western portion of the town the destruction was awful in its character. In a peach orchard where there were large numbers of houses in which the operatives of the- Mississippi Mills were domiciled, 'the greatest dt- Btniction occurred, The groans of the wounded beneath the ruins' were appalling. Dwellings were blown to atoms. The pine forest just beyond was blown out of existence. Calvin Beed, living in the vicinity, died from the excitement, It is estimated the number of killed is twelve. Two or three children are missing. Twelve to twenty dwellings were blown down. The number of people with broken limbs is estimated by physicians at seventy-five. The wounded are removed as fast as it is possible to houses which escaped injury. Several wounded lay out in the "violent rain more than one hour after the storm. The dead now are all kid out, and collins are being made for them. The citizens are doing all in their power for the wounded. Many it is feared will die, A special train with physicians from McComb City and Brookhaven have arrived. A nother extra special will be here with additional help from Magnolia and Summit. All of these physicians go to Beauregard, where the dust-ruction of life and property is simply indescribable. Among the killed in Wesson are Mrs Causly and two children, and several children of J. E. Giibson, one of whom was found unshed undeir a chimney, Two per sons were so mangled as to bo unrecognis able, and several others, whose names could not be obtained, a little boy was found in the wood'i several hundred yards away, unhurt. Wesson, except In the locality mentioned, suffered little except in the destiuction ot fences and trees, Thu scene is appalling in Beauregard. The town is literally a mass of ruins. It is with difficulty one can ride through, so thickly are the trees strewn across the road. Hot one tree of any size is standing in the place, Timber is scattered for miles aronnd, Kven out in the country two and a half milesthedwelliogsweresweptaway. Among thuse dead and wounded are : John Boss, mortally wounded; Isaac Bloom, seriously < M. M. Daniels, mortally; Mrs Tmmbull, of Brookhaven, fatally; Captain Lampkins, wife and child, all dead; Geo. Holloway, mortally; Mrs .Holloway, leg broken; Mr Wilcox, both arms broken, and Mr Fergus son and family, including ten persons, dan gerously wounded. The depflt is swept ! away, and none of it now remains.' I New Okleajss, April 23rd.—Beauregard is in Copiah county, on the New Orleans, St. Louis, and Chicago Bail way, 45 miles southwest of Jackson. .The population is from 400 to 500. Wesson is a more imporj tant place on the B»me road, one mile from Beauregard, It is a summer resort for

Bankers: Colonial Bane of New Zealand. BECHKTARY, PRO TEM : i. J, T. Melville, , Solicitors i Messrs Connkll and Cooper, OBJECTS. Tho operations of this Company will consist o£ tho Growing of Apples on an oxtonsivo scale, with the object not only of supplying the local market, but also of exporting cnoice varieties of dossort fruit to England and Amorica, and it may ho, othqr countries north of tho lino. OwinK to tho difference of taaßons in tho two hemis phere, the Compriy wor'dbo in a position to offer the fruit consumers of these countries fresh apples at any time of the year, when their local supply would bo almost exhausted. LAND. The land to be taken over by tho Company consists of 226 acres, on tho cast bank of the Tamakl River, being lots 43, and part of lots 42 and4o, Parish of Panuranca; ilrat-class agricul tural land, fenced, drained, and well cultivated. Price, £25 an aero. The terms of payment areexcoptionally favour able to the Company—namely, £650 deposit, tho balance to remain at 7 por cent, per annum for a term of flvo years, whon, if tho Company is not in a position to pay it off out of the profits, after payment of dividends averaging 10 por cone por annum to shareholder on paid-up capital, the luto of intercut will bo reduced to 5 por cent, por annum, and remain at that until tho Company can so pay it . TREES. Theso wore selected and seenred early in the Benson, and are tho pick of tho local nursories— being as line an assortment &B could be procured under tho most favourable conditions. Tho' price will avorago about Od each, Aqua ranging from one to flvo years: principally two years old. Over fifty thousand secured for this soa- Bon'a planting. Tho cost to the Company of tho Orchard, whon fully planted at 10 foot apart (500 trees por acre), will amount to 2s fid per tree, including land and all other expenses.* Allowing £6 5s per acre for culture, interest, and expenses the first year, will bring tho cost up to 2s 5d por tree. Tho system of close planting and thorough cultivation Intended to bo adopted by tho Com pany has been proved by actual oxporience highly conduolvo to early and heavy Deariug, and consequently tho realisation of quick and profitable returns. The following statement will show tho difference in first cost per tree under tho system of planting, as compared with that ordinarily adoptod, ' COO TUBES PER AORB 10 FEKT APART— QUINCUNX ORDER.

The seoond year after planting, a bonus of £i per aores under " The Forest Trees Planting Encouragement Act," t togothor with an average of 3d worth of fruit per tree twill covor the year's oxponses at tho rule of £7 23 6d per acre. and pay a dividend of 9 per cent. The third year an avenvjoof 6d worth of fruit per tree will provide for £8 Us 8d per aero oxponsoa, and a dividend of 12 per cent. Tho fourth year an averogo of la worth o( fruit ver tree will pro vido for oxpenses at the liberal rale of £1510s per aero, and allow a dividend of J5 por cent. t Clauso lot the Hcßiilatious unodr the above named Act reads thus:—"l. Tlic trees may bo of any description, and the number planted must bo at the rato of not less than tlvo hundred per acre" } Tboallowancomadoin this cstimato of an averago of 3d worth of fruit por tree, tho second year; tid tho third; Is tho fourth, and 2s the fifth, is considered absurdly low by many practical growers, and it may be m well to mention that while those quantities are used in this estimate, there is every reason to believe that they will prove far below actual results, and that tho return* will warrant the payment of dividends even greater than is herein cslcu lated upon—for instance, if the returns exceed any of the above-named averages by twopence worth of fruit por tree, it would bo equivalent to an additional twelve per cont, dividend, Nothing at all is allowed in this estimate for tho increased valuo of the land and stock (only the actual returns in fruit being taken into account), but tho profit from this source alone would bo very considerable and there is no extravagance in the assumption that in five years time from tho commencement, the capital valno of each tree, with the ground it rrrvipied, would atnniA at not lesathan five shi . ...-«, representing a profit of more than 22s Urt > i >- t>hare, exclusive of profits from sale of fruit. Tho fifth year an averago of 2a wotth of fruit por trco will cover expenses at tho rate of £13 15s por aero, provldo for the b Uanco of the pur chase money of the land (£5.00 ), boaldos pay ment of a dividend of 16 per cont. Every pennyworth of fruit por trae over and above expenditure will yield a protlt of 6 per cent, on paid-up capital. Supposing, then, from this period forward £25 per acre (ono shilling per tree) is allowed for expenses, overy addi tional shilling's worth of fruit per iree wDI give a profit of 72 (seventy-two) per cunt, on paid-tip capital. Approximately, each share wilt entitle the holder to the produce or Drotlts from five trees, after deducting proportionate expenses for culture and care. As tho possibility of disposing of such quanti ties of fruit as an orchard of thla size would produce has been questioned, it may bo as well to draw attention to tho rapidly increasing faci lities for sending not only meat, but fresh fruit, to the London and Continental markets, and also to tho faot t ...t within 40 days of being gathered in onr aucuiuu, our apples may bo placed on the Covent Garden fruit stalls In the English Spring. Packed in 000 l ohani bors adjacent to the frozen meat compartments tn the dlroct steamers, the fruit will keep much fresher than if stored for tho same length of time in New Zealand Anyone acquainted with London markets need not be informed of tbe ready eale and high prices obtainable for any thing' In tho shape of fresh fruit out of tho Ordinary English season. The Californlan market also) is one not to bo despised. A popu lation acouetomod to consuming apploa largely daring ten months Of tho year must prove good customers during the other two, when their own supply runs out and ours oomes in. The opening; of tho Panama Canal is also ex peoted to take placo in about five or six years, by which time this Company should be in a position to forward by it largo quantities of fruit. Its oponing will bring, practically, to oar doors, an unlimited markot for Auok land-grown fruit, not only in London, but in all the large cities of the Kaatern States of Amorica and the Continent of Europe. No apprehension need therefore' be felt as regards a market for oar produce!, nor from competition In supplying that market. There is every reason to anticipate that this undertaking will prove so highly profitable to Its shareholders that it wi'l beoomo the nucleus of one of the largest and most important indus tries yet developed in Auckland.
