The Fate ofd Murdercr.-Many ofour readers w III.
no doubt recollect tiagical affair which occurred at
the theatre IN Monticello, Georgia, aew years since.
in which the Of OF the most respectable CHI
scns OF this state, Caleb Ross, Of Laurel. WAS shot
by man named Augustus l.. Glover. and who. il
was stated. had previously murdered several other
individuals. Mr.. Ross has expended large amount
oil money, and exered all his energies in endeavornc
TO ferret out the murderer of his son but all his
efforts have, we believe, thus far proved entirely un
svang. But we learn from the Arkansas Times.
OF the goth OF March last, that this monster in hu-
man shape, has at length been overtaken BY lust
aud wise Providence, in his sdnguinary career aud
has fallen by the same weapon with which he has
brought several OF his fellow men TO an utimeIy
grave. Ii appears that Glover has succeeded in e.
vadns the laws, and escaped from Justice by CON
eeang himself IN remote pant OF the State Of Ar
kansas, where lie had married. and has been resi-
ding.
The Times that the 4th of March last
Glover was assassinated while travelling the road
from his residence to Rediork Bayou. TO his ia
Their in-laws Mr.. G. b. Watson, Sr. He was IN com
Pany with his wife, young lady and two gentlemen
IN all five persons. One of Tie company only had
Agun, and that not charged. As the COMPANY
reached an open space in the road Immediately Oh
the bank Of the bayou, gun shot was heard to fire
from The opposite bank OF The bayou, and some OF
he sbot penetrated the clothes OF several othe com
pssy. AT the fire of the gum Glover dlsmounted and
took the only gun IN company aud repaired behind
e, and called for the powder aud shot, swearing
he would ascertain who the id assassin was. As
his friend advanced towards him with the powder, &c.
