A Feahki l Trageby. The English jour nals received by the last mail, contain ac counts of a shocking affair involving the deaths of a wife and four children bv the nauus oi me uusDana and lather, which oc curled at a place called Lerwiek.in Scotland : he actor in the fearful drama was a Jlr. 1 eter ilhamsou, who is described ai a re epcctable and prosperous merchant, a worthy neighbor, aud,- to all.appearanoes, an affec tionate husband and a kind parent. His first victim was his wife. He had ap parently struck her a fearful blow with the cleaver on the head ; with the razor he in flicted a frightful cutou her throat. He went through the same . horrifying process in the case of the daughter as she still lay asleep. Ho next lushed up stairs to the apartment oc cupied by the three children, The elder boy was seized, numerous and serious cuts were inflicted upox his head, either with the hatch et edge of the cleaver or with the razor blade, and with the latter instrument a fearful wound was made upon his throat ; but before the consummation qf his intended fate, ho managed to release himself from his father's hands and made his escape down stairs. Upon the youngest of the three the sleep ing infant the same elaborate attack was made as in the case of the first hyoanu stron ger victims. With its head smashed, almost severed as it was from the body, its death mut have been instantaneous. The terjiin atinfcecne of the sickening tragedy was car ried out in the other room on the the same ftaor on which these transactions took place. To this room his son John, had made his escape iu his night dress. Jle could scarcely, however, have done more than reach the ap artment, when his father, fallowing in hot persuit, overtook him, and selling Mul as he vainly attempted to elude his hold leapil! into au unoccupied bod, dragged him out by his superior strength One or more stuning blows upon the skull soon served to make him I TCSlsf'.oss- anil liv a lrnn rarnr rnk in fli thr,,at ho W3S in th(J next deprived of life fpccuu as uic as me innocents wno uaa pre ... il .1. ; I . . t J ceded him.
