Remarkable detection of a murderer — his likeness photographed from the dead Victim's eye. Scientific circles in Europe are just now much interested in a remarkable murder and detection of the murderer in Florence, Italy: The Florence correspondent of the Morning Post reports the details of most remarkable photographic experiments on the eye of a murdered person. It appears that, on the 13th of April, 2d of June and 22d of August, last year, three murders were committed in Florence, in almost precisely similar circumstances, the victims in each case being lodging-house keepers. In each case the "corpse was discovered lying on the floor, with the throat cut from ear to ear, a pool of blood below her head, but only there — no marks of blood in any other parts of the room — and a pocket-handkerchief, the property of some one unknown, close to her person. The trinkets and money which she was supposed to have about her had disappeared, as well as other articles in the house. <

fine myself, in the present letter, to a simple statement of facts — of the circumstances under which these murders were perpetrated, the consequent photographic experiments instituted, and the result obtained, of which I was myself yesterday an eyewitness. There are very distinguished anatomists — persons, too, deeply versed in all the laws of optics — who affirm that the whole thing is a mere freak of nature, to which no importance whatever should be attached. I am happy to say that Signor Marabotti, with whom, from his official position, the prosecution of these inquiries rests, has evidently brought to his task a spirit worthy, in all respects, of a countryman of Galilee. The photographs, with all the accompanying and illustrative details, have been transmitted not only to the medical college of Florence, but also to the medical colleges of Naples and Milan; and, by the authority of the Perfect of Florence, Count Cantelli; a series of photographic experiments will be instituted <

The same correspondent, writing at a later date, says: As the phenomenon revealed by the enlarged photographic view of Alinari in the eye of the murdered woman, Emilia Spagnoli, if worthy of being examined at all, ought to be investigated thoroughly. I have made it the object of a second inspection. On this second visit I enjoyed the advantage

an application which, in the belief that the granting it could lead to no practical result, was twice refused. Suspicion meantime pointed to a young man, Benjamino de Cossimo, who, on the occasion of the first murder, suddenly disappeared from Florence, and was known to have re-appeared at the time of the third murder. He was athe dim and nebulous outline, as actually found on the eye, to the completed outline of the face executed from that tracing by an artist who had never seen Benjamino de Cossimo, or any portrait of the man, and again from that completed outline to the, two photographs of himself found in his possession at the time of his arrest — tas exactly corresponding features in the likeness of the living prisoner. A peculiar dilation of the nostril, a depression in the centre of the upper lip (Benjamino de Cossimo has lost his two front teeth), an unusual elongation of the mouth, a square but double chin, a certain massiveness about the region of the cheek-bone, and

Of these six gentlemen the first five have addressed to me — with permission to give them full publicity — their separate narratives of what they were chiefly struck by in their examination of the enlarged photograph.
