JEALOUSY AND WHISKY.
4 most painful affair TOOK place on Clinton
street, near Jackson, yesterday afternoon, being
the murder, as is alleged, Of IN infant child, Ly
the hand Of a drunken and Jealous father. No
examination officially into the matter is to take
place until this morning. but We learn the main
features Of the case are as follows:
The man, Alexander Mnlholland, is IN Irish
man, about thirty-iye years Of age, sailor By
profession, living, as above, at No. $50 South
Clinton, near Jackson street, and occupying
portion Of two-story frame tenement About
two years and u half since he married widow
woman, also Irish, who had two children. The
relations Of the parties have not been of the
happiest description, and a. times Mulhollanj,
who has been addicted to drink, has indulged,
with what reason We do not learn, in violent fits
Of Jealousy.
Yesterday morning Mrs. B1ulholland was de-
livcred Of fine healthy infant, respectable
midwife. a Mrs. Ann Adams, being her atten-

The neielbors. who had been the witnesses
Of Yfulhollands violence earlier in the day, sent
for the Police, nnd Officer Byrnes, stationed at
the adjoining railroad depot On Canal, corner of
Van Buren street, came over and took Mulhol-
land into custody, and brought him down to
the Armorr. where he was nut in tue cell.
The appearance Of the rooms when visited
by our reporter Yesterday afternoon, attest how
worse than brute man and father NAV be-
come inspired by the demon drink. Broken
&4airs and furniture in apartments originally
well furnished for persons Of their class, were
arucng the evidences of the condition Of the
moor, maddened wretch Yesterday, who was IN
ugly capture for the officer, and resisted being
taken down to the cell, by no means realizing
apparently the serious crime charged upon
him.
Coroner James visited the place little after
the arrest Of Mulholland, md made short pre-.
limipary investigation, and adjourned ] q formal
inquest until this morning, in order to give
time for post mortcm examination, of the
body Of the child By d.. Gore tho County Ply
