Murder of a Woman and Suicide of the  Murderer,  (From the Liverpool Mercury.) Last evening, about half-past nine o'clock, a dreadful murder was perpetrated at the Old Swan, • near this town, by a:young man, who immediately afterwards committed suicide. The facts of this shocking case, as they were gathered from the hurried statement of a domestic servant in the employ of the murdered woman, I are as follows :—About a month or five weeks ago, Anne Traine, a young woman about 25 years of age, possessing considerable personal attractions, the wife of a purser, went to live at a house, No. 14, Wood-grove, Edge-lane, Old Swan, near Liverpool. She brought a servant named Margaret Golding with her, and her cousin, a man named John Thomas Moss, who at the time was following no employment. About a fortnight ago the husband of the woman returned from a two months' voyage, and on hearing that his wife's cousin was lodging in his house he expressed his disapprobation, and requested him to leave. He did so, but did not discontinue visiting his cousin. On Tuesday morning the husband left Liverpool on board the steamship Delamere for a short voyage, but before leaving he told his wife that he did not approve of the house in which they were then living, and requested her to leave as soon as possible, and go to a house in the neighbourhood of New Brighton. His wife assented to this proposition. nabsa anu uuppeu uigat. remamect were a following day and night, and yesterday morning Mrs. Traine commenced packing up her boxes, and he assisted her. He appeared considerably excited during the early part of the day, and once sharpened a large carving knife, and passing his hand over his throat, remarked that he wished to leave this world, and he could soon do it by cutting the jugular vein. Mrs. Traine and the servant, however, took the knife from him, and he became quiet, and assisted his cousin in packing her boxes. They had tea together about 5.30 o'clock p.m., and he then appeared quite calm and collected. After tea, he accompanied Mrs. Traine to one of the upper rooms, and they recommenced their work. After they had been upstairs for some time Mrs. Trains called the servant, who went to them. The man Moss, who then had hold of Mrs. Traine by the wrists, and was looking into her face, said, " Will you give it to me ?" and Mrs. Traine replied " No," and told the servant that he wanted her mother's ring, which she wore on the same finger as her wedding-ring. Moss then said, " Well, never mind," and, putting his arm round his cousin's neck, he attempted to kiss her, but she resisted, and he desisted. Mrs. Traine then asked the woman Golding to get her a dress from one of the other rooms, and she left, her mistress then being kneeling on the floor tying a box, and the man Moss sitting on a box at the other end of the room behind her. The woman had scarcely reached the room when she heard Mrs.Traine calling out, " Oh, Margaret !" She rushed back to the room, and saw Moss strike three blows at the head of his cousin with a hatchet, ai nr ign seen nlvio tr imhhhaaeoe trmfr eei wpn ais haomiisesrstisrnwt. euosootsGueklsoadlstlidhoavi etnet atrg. heeretkuuTrsriohhni oeeeerr::: which he had brought into the room on the pretence fromaonf tnahNg-eei rttohi one alarm.mm afmaking wwhitehretws she enhe neighbours, bl last rsse, they found the body of the unfortunate woman lying on the floor.
