Death of General Mcintosh.

The son of Gen. MIntosh, and five Chiefs
of the Nation, arrived in this city yesterday,
from whom VIC have learned some further
particulars of this unfortunate occurrence.
He saws, that his fathers house was sur
rounded by a party, and set on fire, on the
morning of the 30th of April, at day break /;
they Immediately commenced firing into the
house, and killed his father before he could
escape. They then surrounded the house of
Tustunnuggce, in which, besides himself,
Chilly MsIntosh, Mr.. Kcnnard, (his broth
er-in-law,) and two white men were.-'Thc
Chief was Immediately killed, but the others
escaped by fight; Mlntosh and Kennartl
were pursued to the river (Chatahoochie, }
and fired at until they had crossed. They
remained in the neighbourhood until about
eleven O'Clock, during which time the assail-
ing party were shooting the cattle, and des-
troying the property of Gen. M'Intosh.
1t is believed that the Indians were per-
susdcd to this act, by a white man who is
among them. and who has, ever since the
treaty manifested a disorderly and turbulent
disposition, and declared himself an enemy
Of all who signed it. Nat. Journal.

SINGULAR CASE OF FORGERY.

The case of Samuel Jones, who was tried, and
convicted of forgery, at the late circuit court, &C.
held III the county of Monroe, Judge Walworth
presiding, excited very general interest, as the
title Of very valuable tract of land was depend
ing on the issue of the trial He was convicted
and sentenced to the state prison for life. Coun-
sci for the pcoplc--Messrs. Matthews, District
Attorney Chapn and IIosmer; for the prisoner,
Messrs. Lee, Marvin and Dixon.
This trial disclosed as bold, and for time as
successful piece of villainy, as can he found in
the annals Of forgery. In tie year 1914, Jones
came from Massachusetts, to reside in this vicinity.
Being poor he engaged rs u hired laborer In
the family where he resided, he made accident
al discoveries Of the Tenure of title by which
1900 acres of valuable land in Brighten was held,
and conceived the project of possessing himself
Of this land by forging chain Of titles from the
original granter to his father. lie was ignorant
and ltcrite, but the resources of his mind were
considerable. by a train Of Operations he had so
far effected his purpose, that in the year 1921
he commenced an ejcctmcnt suit to dispossess
the settlers ofthis tract. While this suit was
pending he went to Ohio, and with the aid
of accompljces, there manufactured deed for
the 900 acres, bearing date in 1870. This deed
was prcscn ed at tht C rcuit Court, held at Ro-
chester by Judge Platt, in 1922; and was fully
supported by periIred witnesses, that it prevail
ed. Jones removed anil turned out ofpossession
the honest purchaser and occupant of2o0 acres,
being part Of the tract. lie then by other
suits and negotiations, obtained possession Of
the whole premises, comprised i'll his forged
deed, which he occ,ipled for more than year.
But here Providence interposed to disclose his
villainy. By great perseverance, and cxertions,
the facts were one by one brought to light and
the forgerics and pefiurics made clear as day.
The trial at this circuit commenced with about
90 witnesses attending in court in behalf of the
people, collected from four or five different states
The trial occupied nearly two days. The jury
then retired after clear and lucid charge from
Judge Walworth, and in a short time returned
with virdct-guilty. The consequence vii
be that this depredator on the rights of Others
will be deprived of his iniquitous gain, and the
honest purchasers of u valuable tract of land will
be restored to the homes from which they had
been forcibly expelled.
Jones has family, and is now passed the mid
die age. During the trial, as his wickedness
was step by ,tep disclosed, he appeared uncon
ccrncd, and assumed look ofthe most harden
ed cifrontery When his sentence was passed.
he manifested fcel gs better COMFORTING with
his situation, and seemed weighed down witt
all the agony of a guilty conscience.
