South Brooklyn, at about tex o'clock last night, was the scene of a most awful tragety—the un natural murder of a beautiful boy, about three Sears of age, by its demoniac and fractic father—a man of respectable standing and consideration im the community—the editor of the Brooklyn Dizily Freeman, (tate Advertiser). From the most authentic, available rescuroes we gather the following:—-Mr. J. N. T.

He made his way here up to a bedroom, where lay a lovely boy, his youngest son, we believe, and here he must have drank the brandy, for the bottle or phial was” thrown ont of the window. The scene of the com mission of the deed was of course witnessed by me. eye, save the All seeing one ; but it must have beem* enacted with all the deliberation of a demon. & razor was taken from a@ secure place in a drawers the lovely innocent was lifted from his little pillow, and ifs prattliog tongue forever silenced by the hand that should have protected and cherished it— ere the unhappy mother reached the room to ite rescue, the father bad nearly severed the head from the body!
