Isreal Pierce, a colored man, injured by the fall of the walls of buildings destroy ed by the recent conflagration in Wilming ton, died in that city on Thursday last. The immediate cause of. hia death was lockjaw, which was occasioned by his injuries. By (he accident hb left leg was' bTokeri.'the'fool badly crushed and the flesh on the limb very much lacernted. ' He was attended by Dr. Thomas F. Wood.

Shooting Affray In St. Louis. In dt. Louis recently, John C. Heron was so shockingly stabbed that a fatal result, it is feared, will ensue from the injuries he has received Qn Sunday afternoon, Heron and a man named John Einnefiy and twe other men whose names are unknown, were playing at the "pigeon" game at the Branch saloon, wheh a quarrell arose between the two former, which led to a feeling of deadly hatred in the mind of Kinneff against Heron. The latter left the saloon about half past 6 o'clock, accompanied by a man named Den nis O'Brien. ; They were followed at a dis tance by Kinneff and a man named Patrick O'Brien. They wentfo a stable near Mrs. Kate O'Brien's boarding bouse, where 'He ron boarded,;, and afterwards went into a neighboring, bouse, t When they come out, Dennis O'Brien stood on the sidewalk and Heron went into Mrs. O'Brien's. After- a time, O'Brien heard a noise, an d on going to see what was the matter, found Kinneff and Patrick O'Brien qtiarrellnig with He ron. Tbe' latter endeavored to get away from them, ' and ran into the kitchen,' but they pursued'4ini and the assault began. Heron was knocked on a bed in the room, and, although nearly jail the stabbing took place there, ther parties present cannot say whether any wounds were inflicted upon him while on the bed. It is probable, how ever, that he was stabbed while in this help less position. He was thrown from the bed into tbe corner of the room, where he was stabbed many- times. By some 'means he managed to get into the next room; or. was dragged in by his -assailants who did not cease to attack him. In addition to Dennis O'Brien; Mrs. O'Brien ahd a daughter were present, and endeavored to save Heron. ' An effort was made by them to posh him out of the window, but they could not succeed Kinneff and Pat O'Brien made off, leaving the victim of their assault lying in an ex hansted and fainting condition on the floor from tbe numerous wounds he had received. was announced.
