MosT AWFUL MURDER AND RoBBERY.-
The St. Joseph Gazette of the 10th ult., an
nounces the startling intelligence that just as
that paper was going TO press. they had re-
ceived information that Major Singer, Paymas-
ter in the United States Army, had a few days
previous been murdered and robbed in Saline
county. Missouri. Major Singers wife and
her sister were in company with him, both of
whom are likewise said to have shared the same
fate. The Major had in his possession one
hundred and sixty thousand dollars, with which
he was proceeding TO the upper part Of this
State TO pay the three months extra pay TO
those volunteers that were entitled TO it.
The Gazette says that no clue thus far had
been discovered as to who perpetrated the foul
deed, other than supposition that the soldiers
who acted as his escort were the murderers.
Major Singer WIS married but a short time
since, and this sudden termination of his own
as well as bis wife's and her sisters existence,
in the bloom Of life and in the midst of health,
will cast a deep gloom over large circle Of
bcreaved relatives and friends.
