ATTEUPTED MURDER IN PARIS.--The Court of Assizes e'
few days ago tried a young man of good education, ira,inel Roger, employed as corrector of the press' in some
the most important establishments of Paris, for
au
attempt at murder. In the evening of the 14th
vember last, as a
in the Rue Madame Courchinoux a milk-deal et!
Vaugi rhaurdr;iedwausp ptroocheeerd,inagnd along street, the prisoner
cried,

have suffered long enough ! For eighteen days, a
eighteen hours a day, I have been waiting for yo 11 1
You shall not return home again !" " Do- not tot 104
me, or I will cry out I" said the woman, greatly frig lit-

the heart. She warded off the blow
with her h: and arm, and was wounded in three places. She

always refused to yield to his wishes. He had beco foe
ecquainted with her through her husband, with wh 011
he had long been on friendly terms, and had been so'
customed to take his meals in her house. Accord: '7lg
to his account, however, he had maintained intimate re-
lations with the woman, and his reason for attempti Jig
to kill her was, that she had had the business (his o' 1/11
expression) to make them known to her husband. Tb.e
Jury declared him guilty with extenuating circumstaneiN
and the court condemned him to imprisonment for si
