TIIE DEAD ALIVE.--•A STRANGE STORT.—The
following curious incident has just come to light. About
24 years ago a young man named Turner was living at a
large academy at Amersham, Buckinghamshire, filling the
position of teacher of languages. One evening ho was
seized with a fit—he being subject to them—and the next
morning his bedroom window was found open, and ho
was missing from the room. About ten days after the body
of a young man was found lying face downwards in some
shallow water, and the body was at• once supposed
to be that of the unfortunate young man,
and on a number of the scholars and relatives
viewing the body they all identified it as that of
their teacher and friend. The body in due course was
interred by the relatives, and the mother took possession
of a watch belonging to the deceased, and wore it till her
death. A few days ago some of the relatives of Turner
received a letter from Ballarat, Australia, and were not a
little surprised to find that their relative, whom they had
believed to be dead and buried, and whose grave they had
kept up ever since, was still alive, quite woll and in a very
comfortable position.
iMURDER AND ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—An old
man, named John Winter, yesterday murdered his wife at
Norwich and afterwards attempted suicide, Ile is not
likely to live.

VICTORIA CLUB BETTING.--Trns DA,T.

The feature of the Market operations to-day was
the advance of Clarice (who was said to have won
her trial) for the City and Suburban. Defiance
also came with a rush consequent on a heavy com-
mission being executed in his favour. Mayonaise
was scarcely in such good odour as yesterday, but
Vespasian was steady at his quoted price. For the
Metropolitan Lord of the Dales was in most re-
quest, and at the close there was little to choose be-
tween him and Dunsany for favouritism. Scarcely
anything was done on the " Guineas" or Derby.
