A Tragepy in Hien Lire.—A horrible tragedy has.taken
place.at Florence: ‘Two sons of Lord-Aldborough Mwho has
a villa near Florence) went into the town to look at some
horses at a livery stable, when a quarrel ensued; and words
ran high between them; nevertheless, they returned home
apparently reconciled to each other, and diried and slept as
usual under their father’s roof. "The next day they again
went out, osténsibly to shoot; but the younger brother, +a
ad of eighteen, ‘still nourished a deadly resentment to his
elder brother, a youig mar of three-and-twenty, on account
ofthe dispute of the preceding day, and, upon a bird getting
up, he deliberately levelled his gunand aimed at his brother ;
but only sueceeding in slightly wounding him in the side, |
he drew a pistol and took a surer aim by shooting him in
the back of the neck, and raising up part of the skin of the
head. As soon as his brother bad fllen, this modern Cain

seized him, and, remonstrating upon. his horrible conduct,
told him that: he would come: to; the galleys at Jast.,..T'o
which, he replied with great) defiance, “No, no, thank you ;
I shall never come to the galleys!” drew atother pistol from
his pocket, and; opening his mouth, shot himself dead on
the spot. The corpse of this unfortunate suicide and fratri-
cide was left to blacken for many hours unheeded, beneath
‘the scorching rays of an Italian sun, While the wounded
body of the elder brother was conveyed home to his father,
who is said to- have exclaimed on seeing it—not knowing the
fate of his other son— If that most unnatural wretch escape
the galleys it will not be my. fault.”. His_lordship-was. heard
the next day giving, with sclf-collectedness, a: detailed -ac-
count of this:horrible affair at Fenzi the banker’s, previons-
ly. to his departuresfon Leghorn. ..Meanwhile.a, council -of
some hours’ duration was held at uord Holland’s, as to: whe-
ther. the. suicide shonld be buried in consecrated ground-or
not; it was at length decided that he should; so, according-
ly, by-torchlight, with no other attendants but the clergy-
man and sexton, ‘the: body was consigned to the grave, and
thus closed this fearful domestic tragedy, worthy of the Bor-
gias,and their times. The life of the wounded brother is
still precarious.—Court Journal. i ef os

A dreadful fire destroyed several buildizgs in. Smyrha.on
