A frightful murder was committed lately in': the department of Senlis. The victim was a girl of 18, and the assassin a ruffian named Guiltet, her owe brother. The nature of the wounds displayed a degree of violence and atrocity almost incredible. The corpse was disfigured. by not less than 24 gashes, in each of which the-murderous knife had been buried to the hilt in the person of the wretched girl. The features, which are described us having been remarkably comely, are said to be scarcely recognizable, the ruffian having plunged the weapon into her face at the nose with such brutal force that it pierced the palate and perforated the back of the neck. A mad incestuous passion urged the villain to this hideous crime, which appears to have been deliberately perpetrated on the poor girl's repelling his loathsome advances. He fled to the fields after the murder, but was speedily apprehended.
