A TRAGEDY recently occurred in the Criminal Court at Vienna that bears a moral which should not be forgotten by local jurors. A student of the University, 21 years of age, had been ten- tenced to to months' imprisonment for a crimteal assault on a girl eight years of age. He protested his Innocence, and upon sentence being delivered he cried out “I charge the Court || with moral murder," He then stabbed himself with a lancet, after a struggle with his own brother, who tried to hold his hand, and fell with him to the floor. He was taken away to the prison, but 'died in a few hours,

AT the Magistracy to-day five Chinamen, were charged with smaulting Yu Akiu and stealing $40 on the 17th instant. The prosecutor repeated horrible tale of woe-how he gambled on board the steamship Independent, having just received $43.60, his pay: how he lost $2.40 to the first defendant, and paid his debt of honour like a man; how the defendant then claimed $40 more, and called him, welsher; the second defendant joined in the cry, and with others tore the other $40 from him; how they after wards took him to Yau-ma-ti, tled him to a tree, beat him, and tried to extort more money; and how they finally brought him back to Hongkong under a promise to do what he could for them." He did what be could, and as a result they were each ordered to pay $$ fine for the assault and $5 compensation.
