Extraordinary Sceie in the Tyrol.

A remarkable event has lately happened in the
Tyrol. About the end of last month a man was
sentenced to death, to pay to costs of the trial, and
ail damages demanded, foressassinating one gend-
arme, trying to assassinate soother, killing two men,
resorting to violence against the guard in the exe-
cution of their duty, and wounding another man.
The culprit, a man named Gasser, had threatened to
kill his wife ; she heard of t, and took refuge in a
neighbour's house,whereupoi Gasser shot the neigh-
bour's dog. The neighbour omplained to the police
and two gendarmes were sett to arrest Gasser, but
when he got to his door heired upon them. One
fell dead, and the other las severely wounded.
On this, gendarmes and gods from another place
were called up. Gamer hac
barricaded himself in
his house, had three guns, aid fired on everyone who
came near. The corpse of thetisad gendartee was still
before the door, and a relatn n of Gasser, trying to
take it away, was shot dead
The excitement Was
now intense. Some of the beggers posted themselves
in the house opposite, fired sway at Gasser's house,
and received his fire in retu.n, losing one dead and
hiving another wounded. ]in the course of the day
a hundred shots were fired
rgainst Gasser's house,
and at night he was still in
vssesaion. The weather
was bitterly
cold, all his windows were broken, and
during the night he took refuge in the cowhonse.
Next morning two cannon were brought up and
some ten cannon shots fired on the house. At last,
as all seemed quiet, a body of men stormed the
house, and found Gasser lying exhausted, or rather
crouching down,
on the floor. He had opened the
veins at his wrists
and lost some blood; but the
state of the house, with the windows broken, and
stains of blood on the floor, baffled all description.
The account of the Luau himself is that he was
between 30 and 40, married a second time, father of
two children, passionate drinker of brandy, a bad
character, often brought up before a justice for
brawling, a passionate sportsman. The scene is at
Lauterach, between Bregenz and Feldkircb.
