is likewise in a very agonising conoition, and he is
hardly expected, from the dreadful manner in which
his head is swollen, to survive many days. The other

TH3 CATHOLIC QUCSTION.—We consider the et-
pressioo of public opinion in Bristol has, within the 1114
week, been so decidedly elicited against granting further
concessions to the Roman Catholics, and we feel its satis-
fied that, whenever called upon, that opinion will be so
strongly and unequivocally expressed by our fellow
citizens, through legal and constitutional channels, that
we consider it unnecessary further to discuss the subject at
present. It is Sit all times a painful one to enter upon,
but when occasion calls, we will never flinch from fear-
lessly performing our duty. We mean not, however, by
this precaution, to preclude ourselves from noticing
what occurs in other places. We ate as reluctant as
any of our adversaries to add fuel to party sp'rit.—
But we cannot forget the retort that is always throws
upon the members of the Established Church, that if they
remain silent, it is sure to be taken as a proof that they
are not merely indifferent to Catholic Emancipation,
but that they are consenting to ir. Our sincere wish is
to have no religious meddling with the Roman C
lit religion; and equally so to let the Roman Catholic
religion have no political meddling with Protestants.
We would say in politics what Roman Catholicism says
in religion—it signifies tithing what it is so long as st
not: ours. It is OUT OF THS CHURCH, says Roman Ca-
tholicism ; and therefore the s ort, and yet sum. ient,
answer is, that it mast necessarily be false; in like man-
ner, Roman Cathr licism itself is out of the constituti, not
England, and therefore must necessarily be c,nstitw
ti sally insufferable and incompatible with U.—l elf.r

A horrid case of murder, committed spots the person
of a married female residing at Stonelaw, near Rover-
glen, took plate out Sunday last. 'Eve circum-t rues
are involved in great mystery; but the person charged
with the brutal deed is her own husband—a labourer
named Moore—who has, of course, been taken into cos-
tody. As yet nothing has transpired which can pl.ce tie
matter in its true light, as the declaration of the urisoiter
is the only account which has been given of ir. The
following are the circumstance of this mysterious ---
fair at related by him—He bad been at Bridge on alts g
with his wife on Sunday last, on a visit to net hroiliel,
and remained there till nine .clock at night, drinking
occasionally, at which time they returned to their nen
house at Stonelaw, accompanied by her brother. NI ere
wished to go back to Bridgeton with his brother.in-layi
but his site interfered, and would not consent to his
doing so; and their relation went away alone. In a sh rt
time Moore went after him, and was followed by his vote
a short way behind, who tried to overtake him. She bad
a child in her arms. They had not proceeded far wt en the
prisoner says he heard his wife calling out " Nye
Ned, lam gone." He turned back, and f‘aund her ly-
ing on the ground, bleeding very profusely, and the
child lying beside her. He carried her on his back to
the first house, and afterwards to his own house, where
she died in the course of half an hour. This is the story
related by the prisoner. The body of the woman wax
afterwards examined, and a deep wound was discovered
to have been indicted in the hewer part or the abdomen.
She was five months gone with child. When Moose was
questioned by the people of' the house how she had hart
herself, he replied she had fallen on astone At a part
the road which he named; and when told that she mill
not have fallen on a stone there, as there was no stones
in that part of the road, he confusedly corrected him-
self, and named another place at which she had taken.
The poor woman, it appeared, had been too far cone
to gist any account of the way by which she had le-
ceived her wounds. It is said that the parties li*eel
MI unhappy life together, and that Nloure wasirt;
vend, in the habit of striking her. Ile acknowlee ge.
having struck het once but not of cester.—Glawwehi
