Murder-Most Fo3t--We learn, very
| direct, that murder, attended BY the most
aggravated circumstances, has been recent-
ly committed, in the edge of the town of
Tiverton, near Fall River. A young wo.
man, residing in Bristol, was some time
since seduced by minister of the Methoc
dist Denomination stationed at Bristol, nam-
ed AvERrLn; whose ministrations she at.
tended. We learn, that he first fabricated
irreligious charges against her, and affected
| his wicked purpose, by defending her and
helping her out of the difficulties which he
induced her to believe existed. She be.
came encientS; and went 10 Fall River 70
reside. Here she wrote to her betrayet,
who returned her an answer, advising het
! to 60 to an apothecary, and inquire for a
drug-the oil of tansey-&and 70 take its--
being careful not to consult a doctor.
She HOWEVER proceeded to a physician.
enjoined upon him the strictest secrecy
and then informed him Of her situation and
!, Of the, advice WHICH she had feceiy6d.--
X He told het, that the drug would causk her
i instant death. She then addressed Aver.
d i'll letter, saying that she could not follow
!, his direction. He returned an answer re.
8 guessing her TO meet him at nightfall neat
; Bristol. She showed the letter 10 the
physician, who advised her hot TO grant the
. interview! She therefore did not. She
soon, however, received another letter,
! stating his intention to convey her out Of
town; wters she could enjoy privacy in
confinement; Necessary 20 preserve her
reputation--abd urging her to meet him in
the edge Of Tivcrton, with cloak and q
calash, that she might not be recognized.
She went, as requested. ts
4 The next morning, her lifeless body
! bearing marks Of violence, and resisted
. force-was found suspended BY . rope,
4 thrown over the top Of tbs pole of ksy
stack. Her comb, and locks cf her hair
were found at considerable distance from
the stack, and her situation was sueh,
that no doubt could exist, bot that she had
been wilfnlly murdered. The minlster, 4
is said, crossed Bristol ferry late ii .hesve.
