MYSTERIOUS DEATH

• DOVER, FRIDAY, OCT. B.—Yesterday evening an in-
quisition was held at River, near Dover, before Mr. De
Lasaux, the coroner for East Kent, over the body of a gentle-
man who was found by the head gardener of Mr. J. M.
Fector, lying on his face in a ditch, in the shrubbery, near
Kearsney•abbey. On the body were found a passport and
several written documents, from which it appeared the name
of the deceased was Charles Adolphus Morris Bresler, an
M.D. practising at Breslau, in Germany. He was about 39
years of age, had black hair, and stood about five feet eight
inches high. His native place is supposed to have been
Ausland, and he was described in his passport as travellint,
for pleasure. The passport is dated Ostend, September 3,b
1841, and deceased landed at Dover from one of the Ostend
steamers on the following day. On his arrival at Dover he
proceeded to the Providence Hotel, where he stayed
a few days, and then went to Canterbury. At that place
he stayed about a fortnight, and returned on Saturday
week. He was very respectably dressed, and is said to
have had a great deal of money about him when he
first arrived from Ostend • but there were only two
or three copper coins of German money of small value
upon him when be was discovered by the gardener. The last
time he was seen alive was on Monday week, when he was
met by a young gentleman who was also a native of Germany,
and the two entered into conversation at considerable length.
He said he was staying at Dover for pleasure, and had taken
a stroll as tar as River to look at the village. His reason for
leaving Germany, he stated, was a love affair, and he had
come to England to seek relief from a subject which pressed
very heavily upon his mind, but intimated his intention of
returning in a few weeks. The gentleman parted with him
but a short distance from the place where the body was after-
wards found in a very decomposed state. How the deceased
came by his death cannot be ascertained, although there is
too much reason to fear it was his own voluntary act. The
jury, after a somewhat lengthy investigation, returned a ver-
dict of " Found dead." and the body was this morning de-
cently interred in the churchyard at River. The travelling
cloak of the deceased is still at the Providence Hotel, but it
has not been ascertained what has become of the other pro-
perty which he had about him when he arrived at this port.

The Rev. Mr. Marshall, formerly of the High Church,
Glasgow, and now of Edinburgh, has resigned his office as
a minister of the Church of Scotland, on the ground that he
believes episcopal government more agreeable to scripture
"
than Presbyterianism. The recent events" to which, in
assigning his reasons, he alludes are, doubtless, the schism in
the church arising from the passing of the Veto Act. The
rev. gentleman is son-n.i-law of the late Rev. Legh
mond.—Paisley Advertiser.
