An Infant Murderer. A letter from Fort Pitt, a small settlement iu the Sackatchewan Val- ley, British America, narrates a hor- rible incident that took place in that settlement some weeks ago :---- A French Canadian had killed several pigs, and his little children had looked on in approving wonder at the process. Soon after the pa- rents wens to church, and on their return were met at the door by their oldest child, Gustave, an eight-year old boy, who exclaimed in childish glee, Ihave killed little piggy; come and see. He was covered with blood. What they saw may be inferred from the confession of the boy as to what -had taken place. When the parents had gone to church, Guetave pro- posed to his little brother, Adolphe, that they should play killing pig. In ibis request, it is supposed, the unfortunate little fellow acquiesced. The youngest was to be the pig, the cldest the butcher. Gustave eager- ly assisted his brothcr to undress for tho tragedy, and, taking a small rope, tied him down to a rough lounge that stood in the room; he then procured the batcher knife that Lis father had used in slaughter- ing the pigs the day before, and plunged it into the throat of his pas: sive and helpless brother, The wound was a mortal one, and jt is supposed that death must have im- mediately resulted. After the child had bled his little life away, the un natural brother, with the most in- credible beartlessness, took the cord which confined the body to the lounge, and tying ope end around the feet of the corpse, threw the other over the beam, and, lending "his weight and strength, hoisted the body to the position in which it was found; then, not satisfied with the programme thus far carried out, the little butcher must needs disembowel Lis dead brother almost in thé exact manner in which his father had the pigs the day before. --------n Biopy's Bronoer.--1 was sitting in a conveyancer's office in this cit; summer afternoon, when au [ris servant girl, whom I had noticed | standing for some time in front of the office, diligently spelling ont the long word on the sign, Conveyancers, having, evidently, after repeated spellings, mastered the word aud its meaning to her entire satisfaction, ty their purses in order to fill those of the Fenian leaders.
