TICKLING. A French paper gives an
extraordinary account of n man in Paris
who killed two wives, and rendered the
third an idiot, by binding them and then
tickling their feet. He married the third a
few months since, and soon after urgently
requested her 20 let him bind her with han
dages like mummy, leaving only the head
and feet free. After consulting with her
brother and agreeing with him TO station
himself in an adjoining room, she consent
ed; the husband bound her closely and
then began to tickle her feet She LAUGHED
immoderately, and then all was silent.
again she laughed more loud and immoder-
ately than before, and again all was silent:
her brother burst into the room and found
his sister almost inanimate another fit of
laughter would have killed her. Her hus-
band fled, and she remains an idiot, the ner-
vous system being entirely DESTROYED.
Such is the story-it may be fiction. II
is hardly creditabie that any human being
could thus delight in the agonies ami
death of friend. Tickling the feet. when
the body is SO bound as TO be unable 10 re.

There has been an unusually large col.
