THE MURDERER OF SIXTEEN WOMEN.—The preliminary examinat:on of Philippe, the murderer of the woman in the Rue de la Ville l'Eveque, Paris, is now al,preaching its termination. Crime appears to have been a monomania with him, and the inquiry has brought to light not less than 16 murders committed by him on women; of these five were in Algeria, three in Italy, and cleft in France, and all by cutting their throats with a razor. 110 displays a remarkable cynicism, and on first entering the office of the examining judge expressed his astonishment that he should not be permitted to smoke thereE.Rsres.

Wo must spend all to-day in trying for the lain Lad ; if we find the sea to the eastward, we must  then turn back, commit ourselves to God, who directs all things in the heavens above and the earth beneath (you all heard me read that on Sunday, and needn't repeat it), and take to the raft, whatever happens. But there's one thing I ha,ve to say, as a plain man, and that is—if any coward here dares even whisper the word cannibalism,' I'll shoot him dead with this gun I hold in my hand, and mean to hold day and night.

LOCH TAY (West End).—The sport during the week ending the 17th ult., considering the character of the wee.her, was very good. On Monday three gentlemen were out, and two during the rest of the week. The result of the week's fishing was 12 excellent salmon, the heaviest weighed 311 b. and 301 b., the rest weighed from 131 b. to 201 b. The chief fisherman declares he never saw finer spe_ cimens of fish than the 311 b. and 301 b. All the gentlemen fishing aro residing at 111Therson's Hotel, where, we may add, excellent accommodation is to be got with admirable attention to creature comforts. We have not heard of anyzhing being done on the waters attached to the other inns on Loch Tay. At the lower end of the loch, the Earl of 13readalbane and Lord Glenoreby are gettine, capital sport, killing from five to seven clean 4a11119n each per day
