MURDER IN DUNDEE.--A murder, or what will
probably prove to be 99, marked by the most painful cir-
cumstances, was committed on Sunday morning in Dundee.
Alexander Bisset, a mason, who for some time back has
shown symptoms of insanity, stole out of bed on Sunday
morning, procured an axe, and so ruthlessly wounded his
elder sister that her life is despaired of. The murderer
then quitted the house, intending to go, as he afterwards
alleged, to the Police-office or to the Lunatic Asylum, and
he surrendered himself with the remark, "I have mur-
dered uiy sister, and I want to be hanged."
