TRIAL OF COUNT AND COUNTESS DE
BOCARME.
The Proeureur du Rol, in the sitting of the Court
of Assaes of Mons, yesterday terminated his requisitory ;
he contended, as on the previous cay, that all the cir-
cumstances that preceded, accompanied, and followed the
clime, proved that it had been planned and executed by
both the accused.
M. de Paepe, advocate of de Bocarrnl'a then pro-
ceeded to address the jury. Ile complained of the
prejudice which had been created against his client
by publications, but expressed a hops that the jury would
Only decide according to justice. He said that he would
not attempt to defend the morality of the accused, but
that it should be remembered that he had been born at
the Cape of Good Elope, was brueque and rude in man-
ner, cuuning:and distrustful in character—that, in fact, he
was a sort of savage grafted on a European ; and this, he
aeserted, would account for many of the circumstances al-
leged against him—such as his taking false names
when he bought venomous plants and chemical instru-
ments, Scc. He then proceeded to argue that it was
impossible that a man of the Count's cunning and pru-
dence could have resolved, for months before, to
kill Gustavo Fougnies by poison, and yet
let him know that he was constantly engaged in
making experiments with polio'''. He con•
tended if the Count and Countess had perpetrated
the murder in the way alleged in the indictment, they
must have been raving mad, and more fit for Bedlam
than the scaffold—for it really seemed that every act
had been done to attract attention. He maintained
that the version of the Count was the true one—the
only probable one, viz , that deceased had taken the
mixture by mistake, from a bottle which the Count
had imprudently allowed to remain in the cellar,
and which his wife had by mistake placed on the
table. The statements of the medical men, that
deceased must have taken the poison when lying
on the ground were, he observed, no doubt erroneous;
but it was probable that he had fallen immediately after
leaving swallowed the deadly draught, and this would
account for some of the liquor having fallen on his neck
and mouth, and left scars. He denounced the Countess
in vehement terms for having, in the hope of saving
herself; accused her husband, and maintained that
all she had said against him was false. The Count, 'he
said, had acted generously to her, for he had laid nothing
to her charge, and he hoped that even now sh© would not
refuse the hand ho extended to her, but admit that she had
spoken untruly. One proof that her statements were false
was that she had tenderly caressed her husband whilst
deceased was lying on the floor, and it was not in human
nature to have done so, it; as she eaid, he had just before
murdered her own brother. The Learned Gentleman
had not concluded when the Court adjourned at a
quarter past one. The Countess do Bocarmg appeared
completely overwhelmed by what the Procureur du R&
and her husband's counsel said against her.

IRISH FISHERIES.
The Bill brought into the House of Commons by Mr.
Conolly and Colonel Taylor, to consolidate and amend
the several Acts relating to the Irish fisheries, proposes
to repeal all previous Acts, and that this should serve as
a substitute for them, under the title of the " Irish
Fisheries Act." It proposes that salaried commissioners
should be appointed by Government, who, with the
two existing Inspecting Commissioners of Fisheries,
should be appointed Commissioners of Fisheries in
Ireland, and also the Commissioners to carry the Act into
execution. They will be empowered to hold general
meetings of the proprietors of fisheries in any district,
and to examine witnesses, or take other necessary mesas
for inquiring into the state of the fisheries, and for pro-
viding for their requirements. An annual report will be
made, which will be laid before Parliament. Ireland
will be divided into districts, and to each district a con-
servator
of fisheries will beelected by such persons as
