MATRICIDE BY A MADMAN.— Sunday evening, the
29th of May, a most awful occurrence took place on the Mara
of Cape Clear. A person named Michael Cadigan put an en,l
to his mother's existence by beating out her brains w,th large
stones, and mutilating her body in a most shocking manner.
An inquest was held on the body of the decea.ed on the 2,1
inst., at Cape Clear, before Mr. 11. Lawton and Mr. S. Towns-
hend, two of her Majesty's Justices of Peace, and Sub-Inspector
H. G. Brew. The fo lowing particulars %vete ascertained.
viz. :—'l hat the unfortunate man (being a lunatic) was fol-
lowed by his aged mother out of his house, and took the oppor-
tunity of putting an end to her existence as stated, and then
threw her body over a precipice, at least 200 feet perpendicular,
into the sea, where it was found next day. The Jury brought
in a verdict of " Murder against Michael Cadigan, son to the
d ceased, he being in a state of insanity." It appeared that this
unfortunate matricide had been twice in confinement, one! la

ROYAL INSTITUTE OF BRITISH

ARCHITECTS.
An ordinary meeting was held on Monday• evening, T. L.
DONALDSON, Esq., in the chair, when letters from Signor
Canino., and other foreign members, were received.
Mr. Gonwix, jun., read an interesting paper on Cologne
Cathedral, tracing its history, describing its present state, and
the recent restoration of the choir, and speaking of the efforts
now making throughout Germany to ensure the completion of
the building on the plan of the original architect. Committees
have been formed to receive subscriptions for this purpose not
merely in Germany but in France : the King of Prussia and
the King of Bavaria are each taking warm interest in the re-
sult, and there seems every reason to believe the issue will be
successful. " The crane of the original builders," remarked Mr.
Gods s in, "has *tinned to surmount the grass-covered summit
of the tower, tellltsg of their return, and prophesying ultimate
completion. I venture to express a hope that it may soon be
again at work, playing its part in a much more elevated posi•
Lion than it is now." In this wish we cordially agree.
Mr. JEFFS &EY then described his new glue, and detailea the
experiments upon it recently made at Woolwich.
A communication from Mr. Schroder was afterwards read
on a tificial stones, formed from sulphates of lime and alumi..a,
which led to a conversation, wherein Mr. Tit, Dr. Granville,
Mr.. Wallis, and others, took part.
Thanks were voted to Mr. Godwin, Mr. Schroder, and Mr.
Jefferey, and the meeting then adjourned.
