Aninoirensive eid man of Adelaide town- slun ifi the victim of foul xnuider. His ilead •crushed in with an axe and hiS • aheoat out from ear to ear. ' Intelligence teaches us of a moat horri- ble tregecly occurring to Jonathan Robineon an old and iespeoted resident of Adelaide township, some time recently, tlae discov- ery of which was made Saturday. The old gentleman lived by himaelf, being a bache- lor of 73 years of age, on Mr. Harris' farm 2nd eon. smith. Mr. Robinson was to leave gone to Michigan on a visit, and everybody, 'not semeg any stir about the bouse, conceded that he had done so. The facts were brought out Saturday, bowel er, by a couple of children, who, while play- ing about the premises, noticed the back • door open ; and on going into the house aav, to their amazement, the body of a MAU lying on the floor behind the Stove. The discoyery was at once made known and a visit to the premiseinof older persons revealed the feet that Mrallobineon had been neurdered. The ne we of the murder soon spread, and on the det oft house 13 being opened the foul odor4at , as emitt- ed was something horriblaa shewing that the body muse have lain' in the house for days, and decomposition already set in, On the arrival of Coroner Lindsay a jury of twenty-four was enapannelled. The body antpreraises were next visited by the jury, when a most sickening sight met the gake ()Mhos° present. At the back of the stove lay poor old Robinson, with his throat out in such a manner as to ahnost sever it from the •tern*, while the bleed lad run underneath him and saturated his clothing and the fluor. The lop of his head and his forehead were also meshed in, as if from a blow with the back of im axe, and his arms were both broken, while blood and hair were notiGeahle on the stove ancl floor, An axe was found in the shed, on which were severallgray,hairs, and a cap near the door which the old man con. tinually wore was found, on the peak and top of which was the imprint of the back of an axe, while a chair near the back door bad an indention in the seat as theugh made by the back of an axe. From the appearance of the interior it is reasonable to suppoue that the old man had been read- ing, as a lamp stood on the cupboard, and near by a table on which were his specs • and paper, rind had got up to answer a eummens for admittance from the rear door, and, opening this, was struck twice on the head by fin axe in the hands of an assassin, smashing it in, and breaking his arms in hiwattempts to ward of the blows. Stunned by the blows, the poor old man eppears to have fallen forward oa the • stove, as the ,marks thereon bear out this impression., The murderer next appeers to have dragged his viotim from the front tine stove to the rear, and placing his ead on ;apnea -kicks ainder the stove, out the poor old man's throat, as before stated. The house was ransacked, and drawers and cupboard opened, robbery apparently being the incentive to murder, as it was supposed the old man had money. Them is no clue to the murderer. The 'neighborhood is greatly worked up over the affair. A jury was empannelled and after a short session, returned the following ver- clicti-"That Jonathan Robinson, at some date eubsequent to the 13th September, at his house in Adelaide. was feloniously and with malice aforethought killed • and. Mtn, dered by some person or persons unknown.' It ie understood that the Township of Adelaide contemplate the offering of a re- ward of $5,000 for the apprehension and conviction of the murderer. It has been ;earned that a deposit of $111 to his credit is in the Bank of Commerce. He was supposed to have abont $30 in his possession before the mender, but not one cent was found after the discovery of the Tbe unfortunate man was evidently a °rueful house.keeper, for the bedding and surroundings present a very cleanly appear- ance. 10-4-64-4 Greenway.

Louis C. Elston, the bright and compe- tent writer on musical topics, discourses of 'Hector Berloiz and his music' ancl the illustrations heighten the interest of his narrative.
