OPENING OF THE NEW RAILWAY STATION,
BLACKPRIARS-BRIDGE.-(THIS DAY.)

This morning the new (City) terminus, in con-
texioa with the Loudon, Dover, and Chatham Railway,
wee opened for traffic. Vary little program has yet bees
made with the waiting•rooms, sod the workmen an dill
employed on the roof and is other parr, bat the
statics, when fiakhed, will be replete with every asp
Taoistic*, and will afford ample scrommaddion. The first
train left Blaokhlars at 6 o'clock for Canterbury, Dover,
Ramagsta, ha., the engine Daphne being employed, and it
is sufficient to note that the peasengers were reamed to the
Elephant sad Ord* in 3 minutes, to Hiroo-hill in 15, sad the
remainder of the journey with equal rapidity. Throogbout
the day the Writ end branch and Metropolitan Extrados
line was well patronised; and altogether this addition to
our mesas of railway travelling seems to be popular. The
terminus is approached by the new temporary bridge across
the Thrum, which was also opened this morning for the
lint time for foot pesseagers.

MURDER OP A BROTHER BY A LUNATIC.

A sad domestic tragedy occurred in Rutberglen
on the morning of Sunday la* a yam( man named Robert
Love, being killed by his brother, James Love, while asleep
in bed in their father'. house, Mainstrest, Rothallers. The
deceased, a young man about 25 years of age, retired to rest
on Saturday erasing, atom with his father, both of them
sleeping as natal in a bed in cue of the rooms of the
home. James, his brother, who has for some years back
bees an object of special watthfoloess on the part of the
family., being. considered • dangerous lunatic, slept is
an adpinu4 room, in which his ..nother and 'Lister, also
slept. He was subject to occasional " turns," during which
his aberration of intellect became more marked ; but on
Saturday he went to bed apparently quiet and composed.
All was still in the house till shout 2 o'clook is the mora-
ine, when Mn. Love, bearing a sound as if some of the
occupants of the bed is which the old man and her me
Robert were lying were sick and vomiting, rose andereat into
the room where they ware lying. Dayl•ight was joy*, break-
ing, and looking to the front of the bed where Robert
was lying, she saw blood gurgling from his month and
streamiugover his throat and dia. The family were
roused and medical aid called in, but life was extlact,
' the throat being cut right across, a long deep Rash having
been made, extending nearly from ear to ear, and severing
the windpipe. On a narrow shelf at the foot of the bad was
found a rasor, marked with wet blood stains, and a suspicion
that the bedew man's brother JUDOS bad been the cause of
his death lies thus confirmed, the ream being one which he
had borrowed from a barber in the village about • fortnight
ago, and which his mother,who bid all the household knives
and cutlery from him, had in vain searched for, after learning
that be was in possession of it. The lunatic, on hearing the
alarm in the house, rose from the bed in the adjoining room
were he bad seemingly bees asleep, and came for ward to
the door of the room, after looking into which with an
unconcerned air, the grief and dismay of his mother and
sisters making no Tights impression os him, he Warped
to bed. Several polios *Mows shortly afterwards, the
Dews of the tragedy baring reached them, arrived at
the house, where they apprehended him • and, evidently
conscious of having made himself motorail* to their oars,
be be submitted to be taken into custody without saying •
word or making any resistance, His mother states that
about a year ego she applied to Mr. Wallace, the parochial
inspector of the poor for Rnthergles, stet* that her son
James was "cot o his mind," and a terror to the family,
but the inspector having ascertained that be was able to
continue working, bad refused to relieve the family of, end
burden the pariah with, the charge of the Ineatic. The
unfortunate, since his apprehension and under examina-
tion, would neither admit nor deny the accusation that he
had cut his brother's throat, and seems yet to be labour-
ing under the mental attack that had been working in him
when he committed the deed. His inanity is attributed
to, and has only bees visible since, • calamity that hap-
Domed to • young woman whom he courted about seven
yon ago.
