DESPERATE DEED.

We regret TO record melancholy cat
astrophe which happened in this place last
Friday afternoon. In the forenoon of that
day, a quarrel arose near the river, be-
tween John Nj. Jones, a young man OF
Lynchburg, and George Hamilton OF
Rockbridge, and a short fight was the
consequence. Jones immediately came
into the main street, borrowed gun,
and loaded it, expressing his determine
ton to shoot Hamilton, thong ii the person
from whom borrowed the gun had no idea
that he intended to commit the SasE act
When he returned to the river, Hamilton
was in the boat, with two other individu-
ais, and anticipating Jones's purpose,
begred him not to fire. His intreaties,
however. had no effect. Jones fired, and
the contents of the gun we're lodged IN the
heart of his victim. Hamilton folded his
arms and instantly fell into the water, and
expired Immediately. Jones then, with
a dirk in his hand, pulled Hamilton out
of the river. by the collar, intending to
complete the murder: but it was unneces-
sary. The vital spark was already extinct.
We forbear TO enter into further parucu-
lars, as Jones is in custody, and will
have to answer to his country.
The virdict of the inquest over the body
! Of Hamilton, was ''wllful and malicious
murder. Yuginian.

e;on fabrics Of the same sort for French

nrodiqious diminution in the consumption
If French wines in consequence OF these
late commercial regulations. The London
Courier, adyerting to this subject, remarks
that the iealousies of the different states oil
Europe with respect to their foreign trade'
have been in the highest degree detrlment-
al, not only to one but TO all; and that com
mercial treaties on far and liberal terms,
had better be entered into between them

profitable only to the smuggler, might be
done away with at once.
Il is remarked, Indeed, that commercial
distress Is not confined to one OF these
states, but prevails in France, in Germa-
nv. and Great Britain indiscrlminately.-
| This general and contemporaneOus distress
is remarked to be unparalleled. Notwlth-
standing, SAYS the Courier, fifteen years
of peace, and the opening Of the South A
merican market, the commercial distress
has gone on in the face of these efforts OF
each country to protect its trade and man
fractures. A general equilibrium was the
necessary result Of these efforts having the
same object of5elling all and buying moth
ling. In England the wsayers complain;
/ 10 France the wine growers. It's evident
too, that the corn-growers Of the Continent
have been obliged by the British eOrn-laws
to divert their capital to other objects; so
