-. MURDER OF FATHER by HIS SoN.-The ac-
count of horrid murder in Lsle, n. Y, proves to
be correct. The boy who deliberately cut off the
head of his father with axe, while he lay in n
state Of ntoxicatipn was only eight years old The
deceased though addicted to intemperance, had &C
.cumulated considerable property. The reason Civ
on by the child for the commission of the deed is
that his father when drunk was in the habit of bea-
ting himself and his mother. He has been discharg-
ed from custody on the ground of extreme incapa-
bility Of contemplating the crime of murder.
