and on it being hauled on board 1t was found
to measure twelve feet In lensth, and four and
a half feet around the body. Its sword, which
was over two feet long, had been driven through
the planking up to the fish's head with such
force as to split the fish's lower jaw. On the

About o'clock yesterday afternoon, q little

son Of Mr.. Edward Green, Of No. 220 Monroe

uudor the following circumstances
Fred had boon confinod to the house for aome
days with tho mu.npB, and to amuHo him.
l. number Of bis little playmates gathered
IN front ct tho house and engaged
apponrod at tho front window. with an
old pistol, which for time added much to tho
enjoyment Of tho game. Finally, Master Fred
concluded to frighton hts playmates BY enappng
1t at them. This be did twice, and the third
time tho pistol which was loaded with shot
wont OF, and the contenta were lodged in tho
face md head OF young Groen. Ho fell, and
WAS for q timo inaensiblo. A doctor was immo-
diately summond, who extracted such shot as
lay near tho surface. At a lato hour last night
the boy was suffering terribly, but is not dan
gerously injured. II ia feared, however, that

The details Of tho 1ateat New York tragedy, In
which man first cut Ills mistresa' throat and
then his own, arc certainly moro revolving than
those of any recent murder. Yet there arc re-
deen,ing foatures about It, When man Inns de-
tormined to commit murder, 1t would be public
blessing II he should at tho same time COLI
clalo to kill himself. It would save
great public annoyance and exponso.
It would render murder trials, ignorant
jnries. and uncertain vordlctB altogether
auperluous. It would be tho s.lrost manor to
demonstrate tho principle Of emotional insanity,
and tlis principle might then be admitted with
out detrimont to tho ends Of juatico. Unloss
accompanied by Ifslo de Sc, the crime Of murder
should uoyor be permitted to include Tho poas-
bility Of insane motives. Whom both go togoth-
or, tue law and the community will chcorflily
give the criminal tho benoht Of d doubt.
