Today the robbers' Luciani, father and son, A were killed near Sierra by a party of the Corsican voltigeurs.. The two robbers intrenched themselves behind some enormous blocks of rocks, and fought with desperate courage. The father, although covered with dreadful wounds, had strength enough left to give a stab of his dagger to a voltigeur who came close to him under the impression that he was dead. The son survived an hour, without a complaint having escaped him, and died abusing man and blaspheming God. We had scarcely recovered a little from the emotion caused by these events, when a new crime threw us into consternation. The widow Rocaserres, residing at Levie, was mortally wounded by a pist6l- fired at her by a cousin of her husband's, because this latter had left her all his property. This murder will have the effect of bequeathing to the in procommune of Levie a dreadful hostility, to which no inhabitant can remain a stranger." aisreinntemed to be grels'ist,°la'c'asdilapppiltalitiovnlos.—PaSrulianm'eeYnst made in the ensuing session for leave to construct a branch railway from the Blisworth station on the London and Birmingham Railway to Northampton and Peterborough, and likewise for another branch to Leamington and Warwick.
