cmoNtucs Tkor r..sv. —On Thursday eyeninvit fi.ve o'clock,
a Caroller's Inquest was held by Joseph Shelton, F:sq. to inquire
into the circumstances of the death of M. Edward Jones, a very
old gem ;emit, who was a clerk in the Receiver-General's
Office, In the custom-house. It appeared irr evidence, that MG
Jones. was above 70 sears ofage, and hid been 50 years of that
time employed in the Custom-house. For some time past, Mr.
Jones, on various mice:l4loos. exhibited signs of levity and eccen-
tricity, which were considered by his friends as the certain symp-.
tomsof a dertmg,..d intellect. lie appeared, at various times, quite
incoherent tied distrait in his manners and converption, and
use&frequently to jump up and dance upon the desk in his race.
On 11% ednesday morning he retired to a water-closet, near his
office.. and shortly afterwards the report of a pistol wits heard
by tiveral person', without any sii•picion of the right mix.
the deceased was found with hi, fire quite blown of, wirmout
leaving the vestige of a human feature; the totter jaw
torn away. and, in the right hand of the miei.eatt, the butt
end of the pistol was firmly-grasped, hit time barrel burst: and
it who very naturally concluded from I heic aPpenctinees, that
the deceased, in order the more effectually to secure his desperate
porpoise, had over-charged the pistol, and tired into his mouth,
when it burst, and produced the horrid etTects just described. la
his pockets were found two razors, nod a number of pistol
bullets. The Coroner's Jury, after some short deliberation, pro-
mantled a verdict of—Lunneo.
