Fatal Accident. The New-
burgh (N.Y.) 1 olograph says:
On Saturday last, Hailing S.
Usher was found upon thelloor
of his room, at tho residence of
Mr. John F. Scott, near Mont
gomery, in this county, shot
through the heart. 1 he cir
cumstances of his death are not
known, but the verdict of a jury
of inquest, after an examination
of the body, the room, fec. was,
that ho "came to his death by
the accidental discharge of a
. ih i i i . i :
pistol in ms un a naiios, uuu, u
is believed, while in the act of
loading it.
Young Usher was nineteen
yearjj of age, and the only son
of wealthy parents, residing in
Wilmington, North-Carolina,
who sent him to this Slate a
bout five years since to receive
his education under the guar
dianship of Mr. Scott, to whom,
and to all. who knew him, he
had endeared himself, by his
manly deportment and amiable
disposition, and the many ex
cellencies of a naturally good
heart. Indefatigable in the
pursuit of his studies, and pos
sessed of talents and intelli
gence far bevond his years, he
gave promise
of becoming an
ornament to society and the
pride of a doting family, lie
anticipated a speedy return to
i!io paternal roof, and had fixed
upon the Monday following his
melancholy exit as the day of
departure. A letter was found
uuon the deceased, addressed
to his sister, in which lie appri
zes her of his 'intention, and
dweils at length upon tiie plea
sure he derives from the hope
(if soon "reetin her and his
friends, af'er so long an ab
sence. Surely
'Tho all surrounding heaven, the vi
tal air,
Is big with death!"

Journal is becoming as reckless

ry Subaltern ur the New-York

Walker, the author of the in
ceiuliary Pamphlet, died in Bos
ton on the 6th August. But
mark the villanou insinuation
which he attaches: "lie was
sick about two months. We
made some inquiries respecting
iiis illness, but could obtain no
satisfactory explanation. The
colored people stated that a re
ward of $3000 had been ofTered
at the South to any une who
wotdd take Walker's life. If
there bo any evidence of the
fact, wo invito our colned
friends to furnish it for publi
cation." A blacker calumny
ag:inst the South was never

Robbing a Grave.. .The Cas
tieton (Vt.) Statesman says:
Week before last, the wife of
Mr. IVnfield Churchill, of Hub
bard ton, died in that town of
consumption, and was buried on
Friday or Saturday of the same
week. Last week on Wednes
day it was discovered that some
marks which had been placed
on tiie grave had been remov
ed, which induced the belief
that the body had been stolen;
on examination the supposition
proved to be'eorrect the grave
contained nothing but an empty
coffin. Suspicions were exci
ted that the body was brought
to this town; and on Monday
last a warrant was issued, and
a general search of the medical
buildings in this village took
place. The remains of a per
son, with the exception of the
head, were discovered, which
the husband recognized as ihose
of his deceased wife; and which
were taken to Hubbardtbn to
be re-interred, Two students
attached to the medical institu
tion were immediately arrested
on suspicion. Their examina
tion, w! understand, took place
yesterday. We have not yet
heard the result.
