DISCOVERING CRIMINAL PHoToGRAPHY-The
London Times has an account of the finding in the
Thames of the body of male infant, having around
it large bag of stones. The superintendent of the
Reading Police caused photograp phi likencsses of the
body to be taken, placing them in the windows of
the police station, and sending them to various
towns. The likenesses attracted the attention of
the master of the workhouse at Henley, and he re-
cognized resemblance in them to the child of
young woman named Mary Newell, who had left
the workhouse a few days previously. The young
woman was sought for, and she was found at the
residence of her mother, without her child. She
was arrested, and being charged with the murder of
her child, she admitted that having been to Read
ing to its father, and he refusing to give her any
money to maintain it, she went to the river at mid
night, and threw the child in. Her confession
corroborated by various circumstances. Thisis GER
tanly remarkable case-the likeness of the mur
aered child leading to the detection of its inhuman
mother as the murderer.

A Scene IN THE STRAITS OF MALACCA.-One day,
while laying at anchor and wishing for a breeze,
the stewart rushed in with the strange announce
ment that a shark and turtle were engaged in a
fight alongside Doubtful and amazed at the ac-
count of so unusual and so unequal a combat, we
all rushed on deck, and there, sure enough we saw
an immense shark and turtle of venerable antiqui-
ty ii we might Judge from his size and the prouson
of barnacles and other parasites with which he was
decorated. Without respect for his age and Quaker
like habits, the shark made furious charges at poor
turtle, who opposed the dangerous jaws of the enc
my with the full front of his back, which no i'm
preston could be made. On one occasion the turtle
did not turn quite sharply enough, which cost him
greater part of one unlucky fipper Indignant

the voracious and indiscrimnate appetite of a
shark, our skipper interviewed with harpoon, but
with such ill-judged aim that it fell but-end fore
most instead of on the point: whereupon, in our
disappointment, we would gladly have pitched him
after it. 1t, however, answered the purpose of
soaring away the shark for few moments, which
the turtle made the most of to scutte to the bottom
where he safe from the attacks of his ravenous
admrer.
