The following additional particu lars may not be uninteresting as to

The Greta Murderers. It is now nineteen months since the outlaws of Greta, or as they are better known, the Kelly Gang, slaughtered in cold blood Sergeant Kennedy, and Constables Scanlon and Lonigan, who had been dis patched to the haunts of the ruffians in the Wombat Ranges, near Mans field, Victoria, to. arrest them on the charges of horse stealing. From that time up till yesterday, the gang, which consisted of only four men, all under 25 years of age, had suc ceeded in not alone defying the power and resources of the Government to effect their capture, but have varied the tedium of their retire ment in their mountain home by occasional raids on local banks, which in skilful organisation and daring, surpass anything related in the his tory of Greek and Spanish brigand age, not to mention the adventures of such vulgar scoundrels as embel lish the pages of the Newgate calen dar. With a reward of LB,OOO offered for them dead or alive, and notwithstanding the expenditure of of nearly L 30,000 in their pursuit, the authorities were unsuccessful. The constables who were murdered were good and tried officers, and to their memory a monument is erected at Mansfield, by public subscriptions from the inhabitants of Victoria and New South Wales. Captain Stan dish, the Chief Commissioner of Police, at the unveiling of the statue a short time since, expressed a hope that the villains would be soon brought to justice. The names of the murdered men were Michael Kennedy, born at Westmeath, Ire land, aged 36 ; Thomas Lonigan, born at Sligo, Ireland, aged 34 ; and Michael Scanlon, born at Kerry, Ireland, aged 35.
