tertained a high Mall tar hie character and talents, she did

MONDAY EVRIIIWG.-•-anata excitement wee occasioned this
umening at Ramona and the neighbourhood, by the disco-
very al the body of a man below the Rut Cliff, near the re-
tinas" of Sir Hoses Houtellore, Bart., under circumstances
white had to the supposition that a murder has been com-
mitted. The body was found naked at the foot of the cliff,
with • stab in the left breast reaching to the
keen, one arm brokeo, and the left head m'eting,
having been cot off from the socket. The hand
and a small chopper wen walnequently found on the
rocks at no great diames frees the body, sad the mat, waist-
coat, and trouser. of the deceased were also Weimar the

has been identified by the porter of Ow
Oak Hotel as having been at the home ea Sea-
day morning. He then asked the M. brush his
clothes, which was dose, and he soon efMrweede mat away.
The porter remembers that the left hand of the dammed was
handsawd at the time; and from this chromatin* an im-
pend= has arisen in the minds of some persons that this
WY a ease, not of murder, but of suicide ; that the deceased
In a St of frenzy diet chopped off his band end then
cabbed h!mself to the heart. The foot of the area being
broken, however, favours the opinion that be fell from the
cliff ; end • wadiesl gentleman who fited the spot, &log
appealed to, raid it wee impossible far the deceased to have
stabbed himself to the heart and then thrown himself over
the cliff. We may add that up to the time we write no wea-
pon her been discovered with which the wound in the left
breast could have tem indicted. A coroner's inquest will
be held.

days previously in terrible agonies. During the paroxysms
he repeatedly charged his wits with having administered
potion to him, and Mir, notwithstactrug the marked cha-
racter of the symptoms exhibited by the unfortunate may
was considered to render an inquest necessary. The post
modem tlanlialliat, however, folly clamed the poor
vernal of participation in her husband's death. Pries was
