MURDER AND ATTIMPTID BUICIDE.—Much ex-
citement and consternatke were sweated in the neighbour-
hood of Wellington-road, Liverpool, yesterday, in 0n....
ciente of a horrible outrage and murder committed by the
wife of a labouring man named Dawson. It appears that
during • tit of mental aberration she murdered ow of her
children, a girl about two years old, by cutting her throat
with • large table knife. Immediately after ting
this horrid act abs seized bold of an elder a- and would
have likewise destroyed it, were it not that the ewes= of
the int•oded victim drew the attention of some of the
neighbours, who promptly isterfered and rescued the child.
The unhappy woman then indicted a frightful gash in her
owe neck, which, bad not pima', and other healing mesas
been at ones applied, might have proved fatal ; but even as
it is, the demented woman is not out of dearer, for cm being
taken to the Bridewell, she, is a fit of rage and madness,
tore away the planters from her throat, and thereby caused
a violent hemorrhage. It appears that Mrs. Demos has
only been oat of a lunatic asylum far a short time.
