THE DEVONSHIRE MURDERS.—The two "Devon-
shire murdrosses"—Charlotte Winsor and Elizabeth Duff—
have been removed this week from Exeter Gaol to Mill-
bank Penitentiary. The third murdress, it will be remem-
bered, was executed a few months ago. The county, the
fairest in England, outwardly seems to be rapidly attaining
a reputation among the worst. The Totnes murder now

turns out to have been a double crime, and was probably
preceded by another. The body of the infant whom the
murdered woman had with her when she was last seen alive
has boon found in the Dart, and there is little doubt that
the mother was ravished before she was killed. At present
there seems not the faintest hope of discovering the perpo-
ttatots of these atrociou deeds.— Iredent 49171i1ig News.

state of political affairs in Europe did not permit

Turkey.
