night-dress, the bed clothes being covered with blood.
In another room his aged mother was found, weltering
in her blood, and though not dead, she has remained

The house bad evidently been ransacked, and the kitchen
tongs were found to be covered with blood, with hair and
brats also adhering. The deceased women's head wee found
to have been battered in a dreadful . Several persons

Ooe of the greatest sights in Jersey is the vinery
beleoging to Mr. Tenslathe., a resident g-ntlernan of for
tune. It is situated us an entinetceoverlo•king St. Ashin's
Bey. When Mr. Tennimore first planted 'ince in Jersey
he thought he should be able to do without glass, but the
occasional etarpume of the winters in the Chaarel Islands
compelled him to alter his opinion, arid to build a crystal
palace to hold one of the great. at linrEfuitural curiosities
in the world. Thronghont an immense long g ass
building the vines are trailed along at a low height,
from the ground. At regular intervals a couple of
Maas cesasaut, a hop bunch of large and delicious
looking grapes. The uniform dimensions of the spaces
between the bunches of fruit, the similarity in shape
and size of the latter, and the limited Quantity of Wimp,
attached to each of them, look almost eruficial. The pro-
ductive...we of the St. Aubin vinery n fail.. It produces
about 1,6001. worth of grapes yearly. Their beautiful
appearance sad goo flavour f.usit them to be much sought
after by English fruiterers. Mr. Tennimore sent 40. be. of
his grapes at a pretreat to the Emperor of France jut pre-
vious to the visit of the Queen to hi. Msjesty.
The new sniper Sion bridge at the Glasgow-green
was formally opened for traffic fro Thunday forenoon. The
whole coot, including the parliassistary expenses, is 6,6001,
and it is coolhiently hoped that the halfpence of octusiosel
peassegsn, sad the twopence a week of daily eu.tonms,
et me very distant date, enable the ouncil to throw
open the bridge to do* public free of say Charge. The
length of the bridge is 230 feet, the width between the rails
15 Net, and the height of the column. 24 feet. The work
