Perry at Boon-Hill, The Coldsboro Messenger of the 22d, &aysy We have , seen and beard Os man v con flicting reportsand rumors touch it ur thi.1 affair that we have taken tho trouble to pro cure correct-Information and full patuai- The unfortunate lad r wasthe wife of Mr. Reuben D. Perrv. a vonnz merchant of Boon Hill. She was the daughter ot Joshua Herring, Esq., or Lenoir, county, ana naa been married to Mr. P. only- about ten weeks. The young couple were comforta ably settled in the village of Boon Hill, and nothing occurred in their household gener ally known as family disturbances. Tbe young bride was ' esteemed and visited by all the ladies of the town, and no one sus pected that she could even entertain the idea of eelf-destructioq. It is true, how ever, that on seera occasions, when alone with her husband of while riding out with him, she exhibited melancholy symptoms. Thus on one occasion sbo desired ito know how many apples one could eat to produce death. Again she enquired the surest place to shoot a bodv if death was desired, on another occasion a pistol tired accidently while she was handling it In her own room. It is also stated that she went to the tur pentine distillery of her husband, a short distance from the residence, and asked the superintendent how to manipulate a small Smith and Wesson pistol that she exhib- j ited. But nothing In her demeanor bad ex cited the least suspicion of those around her. On the day preceding the tragedy her father, Mr. Herring, who had paid her a visit, re turned home. She bid him a hearty fare well and remarked that she felt as if she would never see him and her mother again. On the same day a married ' sister of Mr. Perry's came to the house to. remain on a visit. - Tnarnignt sue retired as usual and apparently in the best of spirits. On the following morning, Aug. 14th, she was seen going to the garden house. Shortly after the report of a pistol was heard in the house but nothing thought of it. On her not returning search was made. A brother of Mr. Perry's opened the garden house door and found Mrs. P. in the hist agonies of death, kneeling on the floor with ner arms and body resting oh the bench. The pistol had fallen to the ground. When taken bold of she rolled her eyes and expired. Three shots had penetrated under her chin and two others had glanced her head. The weapon was a small Smith and Wesson, and the balls had not sufficient force to Eanetrate her brain. Sho is supposed to ave bleed to death. That she diet the work herself was very evident and beyond a doubt. The coroner's Jury,' all agreed so, and rendered their verdict accordingly. I The following Is a verbatim copy of a note found in her husband's tobacco-pouch, which was in Mrs. P's own hand writing : My husband. I I love you better than life but I must leave vou. Mv mind, mind Farewell, God bless you, Your wile it. No cause can be assigned for the rash act. The general impression is that she commit ted tbe deed wmie in a state or temporary mental abberration. Her age was 20 years. Some weeks ago, while riding out with her husband and passing the cemetery and Mr. Perry's father's place she melancholy asked that she be buried there when she died and Raid she desired to be dressed in white. This we learn was done. I 3 : be M M I ' a 3 R u to e o v. Or - B 00 s. General Assembly. , i .

W. Late's mill pond near Mebanesville on Saturday 24th insL He with several boys were bathing when it is Hiipposed the deceased took i cramp, sunk and was drowned. He was & bright and noble hearted boy and was . the pride of his parents and a large circle of acq uait- anccs. He was in the water two hours be fore his body was recovered. Tbe deceased was a student of the Bingham school. . The loss of such a promising son is heart-rend ing the more so as his death was sudden.

A friend writing1 from Moore county,' August 10th, furnishes the following items : ; -; . ."Quite an exciting event happened near Prosperity, in Moore-county, on the 3rd of August. ! A woman, the wife of John Wal din colored, drowned herself aad her only son, some five years of age, (ana she was likely, to soon! be the mother of another,) in the waters of Deep River. For some time pasij she had threatened to drown herself. 1 No attention was paid to her ravings until the deed was done. She was found not far from the place where she was drowned, with her child lying at her feet, on the bot tom'of the river. The cause of the suicide was disturbance between herself and hus band.' . 41 Also, near the same place, the house of ;JI.enry Maness was visited by some thief, J not yet been arrested. "Also, at the election ground, in Town ship No. 4, one James Cavendish got his leg broke from the kick of a horse. He is 75 years old, and married, when about 60, a young wife. His friends regret the acci dentvery much. At last accounts he was Improving. - May b Worth Ireservingv The Medi cal Home has the following receipts, which may be of value : . :. .

' A tea made of dried or ripe whortleberries, and drank in the place of water, Is a sure and speedy cure for a scrofulous difficulty, however bad.
