TERRIBLE MURDER AT TEMPLEPATRICK

A most brutal murder was committed in a farmhouse in the townland of Ballycushan, near Templepatrick, and about ten miles from Belfast, on Friday night last. The victim is a widow named Margaret Langtry, a quiet, inoffensive woman, about forty years of age. Mrs. Langtry acted as housekeeper to a bachelor uncle, David Bill, who farms about thirty acres of land. On Friday, Bill was at Belfast market, and on returning about nine o'clock at night, he found his niece's body lying half in and half out of the fire, the greater portion of it being almost burnt to a cinder. On the head, which was about the only portion untouched by the flames, were wounds caused by slug shot. It is surmised that the fatal shot had been fired through a small window in the back of the kitchen, as a pane in it is broken, as well as several panes in a larger window exactly opposite, and a number of slugs have been picked up in the kitchen, and out of the woodwork in the window. The murderer having cleared the way for his real purpose--which appears to have been robbery--broke open another window with a hatchet, ransacked the parlour, and then wrenched the lock off a chest in one of the rooms upstairs from which some money had been abstracted, though all the money the box contained was not taken away. In order to avert suspicion, it is supposed that the murderer conceived the horrible idea of burning his victim, and he may have been engaged in this work when disturbed by the approach of the farmer's cart. In another room three children of the murdered woman were sleeping; and, when the uncle, in his frenzy, rushed to see if they were safe, he found them fast asleep. One person has been arrested in connection with the crime--a man named Wm. Hill, a cousin of Mrs. Langtry's, and an occasional worker on the farm. When taken into custody, he was in bed in his father's house, about half a mile from Bill's farm, and near him was found a fowling-piece, which had been recently discharged. A tramp was arrested on Saturday, in Carrickfergus, on suspicion; but, on being brought before a magistrate, he was able to give a satisfactory explanation of some blood stains found on his clothes, and was at once set at liberty.

THE CENSUS OF TYRONE.

THE census of the County of Tyrone has been printed. The population of the county was 312,956 in '41, 255,661 in '51, 238,500 in '61, 215,766 in '71. The county contains one Parliamentary borough, Dungannon, with 5,800 inhabitants, and three towns of some size--namely, Strabane, 4,184; Omagh, 3,662; Cookstown, 3,257. In the age tables, Tyrone is credited with not less than 50 centenarians. The religious census of the people shows that the population is divided into 119,937 Catholics, 49,201 Protestant Episcopalians, 42,156 Presbyterians, 3,115 Methodists, 1,357 of all other denominations. The last bodies include 5 Free Thinkers, 2 Jews, and 1 Jerusalemite. In Dungannon, Omagh, and Strabane the Catholics outnumber the professors of all other faiths, but are outnumbered by the others in Cookstown 36.5 per cent. of the Catholic population over five years of age are returned as illiterate; 21.9 per cent. of the Protestant Episcopalians, 10.5 per cent. of the Presbyterians, 1.6 of the Methodists, We learn that 6,421 of the inhabitants speak Irish and English, and 130 Irish only. The emigration returns show that the county lost 63,000 inhabitants by emigration within the last 20 years. In recent years the rate of emigration has been remarkably steady, seldom falling below 2,000 or rising above 3,000 persons.

144 IDIOTS WANTED!

UNDER the law regulating trial by jury in the State of New York, it will be necessary to secure 144 idiots, in order to constitute the twelve juries which will be required in, the twelve Beecher scandal suits. No juror will be available who has formed an opinion, or received a bias of judgment by reading the newspaper statements. The difficulty is increased by the requirement that these unfortunate beings shall be sifted out of the apparently sane men who roam at liberty in the city of Brooklyn.--Chicago Interior.

SESSION 1874-5.

THE opening meeting of the session was held on Friday at twelve o'clock, in the Common Hall of the College. There was a goodly array of the citizens, who evinced much interest in the proceedings. After disposing of some preliminary arrangements,

The Rev. Professor WITHEROW came forward, and delivered (as President of the Faculty) the opening address. After referring to the departure of Professor M'Gaw, to undertake the pastoral charge of the congregation at Sale, near Manchester, and urging the students to diligence and good conduct, he proceeded at some length to detail the main incidents in the life of St. Columbkille, whom the speaker described as "a vigorous worker in his day, whose name tradition connects with the origin of our city, and whose services to Christianity are not as generally known as they deserve.''

The lecture was listened to with much interest.

THE TEMPLEPATRICK MURDER.--IDENTIFICATION OF THE PRISONER.

ANTRIM, SATURDAY.--Contrary to expectation, the prisoner, Wm. Bill, charged with the murder of Margaret Langtry at her uncle's residence, Ballycushan, near Templepatrick, was not arraigned on the charge this morning. Yesterday, however, an investigation of a formal character was held in the Antrim Bridewell by Mr. Montgomery, R.M. The accused was placed amongst a number of other persons, when a young lad named James Taggart, aged about 17 years, unhesitatingly pointed him out as the man whom he saw between seven and eight o'clock on the night of the murder near the Doagh Bridge, with a gun in his possession. Witness, who was returning from his work at the time was so frightened as seeing him with the gun that he ran away. He had never seen William Bill in his life before. On the sworn testimony of the police that a remand was necessary for the production of other evidence, the prisoner was remanded for a week. It is stated that the further investigation of the case will take place in Belfast. The prisoner, however, remains as yet in Antrim Bridewell. The murder is still the prevailing topic of conversation here, and the feeling of horror at the shocking nature of its surroundings has in no way abated.

THE TEMPLEPATRICK MURDER.
Templepatrick, Friday.

THE investigation into the Templepatrick murder was resumed this morning in the Court House, Antrim, by Mr. Montgomery, R.M., and Captain Brook. Mr. M'Lean prosecuted. The proceedings were private. The prisoner was conveyed under a strong escort from the bridewell, before which a number of the townspeople had assembled to obtain a view of him. In appearance he is young, tall, powerfully built, and rather prepossessing, indeed about the last person one would suspect of such a heinous crime: His character is in sad contrast to this, being almost equal to that of a reckless desperado. To-day as he walked between the police he bore a striking resemblance to Montgomery in many features, and noticeably in his eye, which is cold and cruel looking. He seemed calm and self-possessed. Many rumours are afloat regarding forthcoming evidence, some of which is said to be very strong against the prisoner, Wm. Bill.

The investigation was kept strictly private, but I have learned on the best authority that evidence of a very important character was given seriously implicating the prisoner with the commission of the murder. It seems that several pieces of newspaper were found by the police inside, and also at the side of the house at which the murder was committed. Those smelled strongly of gunpowder, and on further search by the police the portions of newspapers corresponding with these were discovered in the prisoner's house. The portions picked up at deceased's head had evidently been used for wadding. Other evidence, not yet made public, was given, all of which bears strongly against the prisoner. The investigation will not conclude for some time, and it is understood that the prisoner will to-night be removed to Belfast, where the inquiry will be concluded.
