FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Saturday, a fatal accident
happened to Captain James Tullis, who for some years
barn r.-eided in Bell Bras Cottage, which Ise oast a deep
gloom over the lowa of Cupar Fife. It seems
that Captain Talus left his house on Saturday,
about eleven o'clock, to amuse himself with a
fowling-piece ; and about f air hours after he wee
found dead, not far from home, within the Nursery
Grounds, baviog been that through the bean; awl from
the appearance of the holy, it was evident that he had bees
deed about two bows. It I. euppomed that the accident
arose from the captain carrying his gun on cock, and that
while climbing up the incline, the trigger had come in con-
emit with the twigs of ono of the young bushes which pew
akoe to the spot where the body was f.mud. As the captain's
pipe was lying • little apart front the body, it le inferred that
he was walking along emokiag at the moment the ettideat
happened. It is said that Caplan Tullis was in the habit
of carrying hie gsa is a caraleas and slovenly manner, and
had bum repeatedly remonstrated with by him Mends and
acqualstmese es that •CONI/M. Donseed was married, and
has left a widow end Isar young children to mourn his un-
