It is painful to us to state the circumstance of this tragical ev ent; but still more, the causes which are supposed to have hur ried him to it. He could not withstand the contumely bf the world; which he had reason-to an ticipate. No man ever discharg ed his domestic duties with more exemplary propriety than Jerman Baker he was a man of nice feel ings; and his character as a man ot honor was as high as that of any man. But, in an evil hour, his strength of mind gave way be fore the pecuniary embarrass ments which beset him and the death which he inflicted with his own hand, and the humble dispo sition which he made of his re mains, sufficiently attest the deep sense of shame which he had bro't upon himself.

On Thursday night, (27th ult.) he manifested great tmhappiness; but, after he had promised to retire in a few moments to bed, his family went to their rooms. About 1 o'clock, Mrs. B. being uneasy at his ab sence, sought him in a lower a partment, and having received his promise that he would soon relire to bed, returned to her room.
