THE KELLY GANG. Work for the Hangman. [BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.] Melbourne, June 29.
There is little fresh regarding yesterday's events at GHenrowan. Ned Kelly has in all thirteen wounds, and eighteen shots struck his armou?. Dan Kelly and Hart, it is said, were burnt after death ; but it is not certain whether they committed suicide or were shot by the police. Ned Kelly has reached Melbourne, and is progressing favourably. Ilesh -wounds only werp found, which are not likely to prove fatal.
The following is vouched for by one of the most reliable of Philadelphia divines : A young clergyman having agreed to i supply the pulpit of an older brother absent from home, escorted to church the daughter of the pastor, and after seeing her safely in her father's pew, ascended to the pulpit unconscious that this natural attention to the young lady was sufficient to excite lively imaginations and inquiries in the audience. Upon reading the hymn to be sung, the young clergyman was suprised to perceive evident efforts in the oongregation to suppress laughter. The daughter of his friend possessed the mellifluous name of Grace, and all unsuspicious of that fact, he had chosen the hymn beginning with the words *' Amazing grace" and proceeding with — 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved. How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed. Through many dangers, toils, and snares I have already come : 'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home ! —Harper's Monthly, The new Pure Cash System now being initiated by G. and C. will certainly prove a benefit to the public. It has been a great success in Sydney and Melbourne, and when strictly carried out the customer who buys at an establishment where the goods are marked low to ensure a rapid sale must be a great gainer. G. and C. sell their drapery, millinary, and clothing at such prices for cash as gives the buyer the advantages of a shareholder in a co-operative society, without the risk of bting called upon to bear a. portion of the loss should the year's business prove unsatisfactory. Garlick and Cranwell will aim to retain the confidence which the public have hitherto shown them, and are detirmtned to give the pure cash system a fair trial ; whether they gain or lose the first year. Country buyers on remitting cash with order will be supplied with goods at co-operative prices ; just the same as though they made a personal selection. Furnishing goods, such as carpets, floor cloths, bedsteads, bedding, and general house furniture, the largest portion of which is turned out at our own factory, will be marked at the lowest remunerative prices, and a discount of five per cent, will be allowed to those who pay at the time ot purchase. G. &C. ha\ing realised the entire value of their stock during tlu-ir Lite cash sale, the present btotk is xi wandw and lhkai'l.y noi'cur. An inspection is in\itod.— Garlick anu Cr \nwkll, City Hall Furnishing Arcade, Queenstrcet, Auckland.
