THE LATE MURDER AT ALDERSHOT.—A reward
of £lOO has been off-red by Govertansnt for such
information as may lead to the conviction of the mur
wdehoserer
or murderers of Mr. Henry Houlton, of Bagrhot,

February. It is also intimated that the Home Secretary
will advise her Majesty's free pardon to any accomplice
not being the person who actually committed the murder,
who will give such information as wi,l lead to the same

result.
ossible as yet to form
['he Pays says that it is imp
an exact idea of the consequences that may ensue
from the detest of Langiewicz. Fnr some time past
the insurrection has not been confined to the Pala-
tinates of Cracow and Sandomir. Numerous de-
tachments have formed in various places under other
ch!efs. But will. not the news of the defeat of the
Dictator be a cause of discouragement to them.
Besides, can they resist better than Langievocz
against the forces that the Russians prepare to send
against them in greater numbers even than in
the past ? We are far from hoping for any set-
tlement -that moy stop the waste of life, and at the
same time give v.t isfaction to the feelings that have
made of this outbreak a national movement. The
Russians will wish to pursue their victory, and the
Poles will push their resistance to the last ex-
tremities.
