Two LADS LOST IN THE WooDs.-The Halifax
Sun records the following tragedy as having oc-
Cured at the back settlement of Tracade in Sidney
county, Nova Scotia. The two SONS OF John FitZ,
a worthy old farmer their ages being sixteen and
twenty-four years, left home on the morning of
November 24ih last In search of pine, but did not
return at evening. Parties of settlers went in search
of theIn day after day. twenty or thirty men being
constantly out traversng hill and valley, and
examining every clump Of fir and heap of brush
wood, but it was all in vain until January 23d,
when the youngest found dead, about four
miles from his fathers house, in a sort of hut that
had been built against the roots of large windfall
He lay with his hand under his head and his axe
by his side having probably fallen asleep in that
position and been frozen death. The body was
not disfgured. The brothers had wandered about
the woods for several days. las the parties in search
of them discoyereda blaze in various directions)
until becoming exhausted through fatigue and want
of food the Youngest could proceed no farther, and
the elder brother had in all likelihood erected this
shelter and left him, with the hope of still being
able to reach some of the settlements but his
strength failing him, he too must have lain down to
die the dreadful death of cold and starvation. The
search continued for the other, but the snow
had fallen very deep. What the suferings of these
poor fellows must have been it is horrible to con-
template. Their hopes and fears-stil clinging to
life when their strength was failing them-nerying
themselves for one effort to get clear OF the
forest, with dreadful death staring them In the
face, must have been agony indeed.

Foul MuRpER-Wm. L. White Butchered On
the night Of the 18th inst, White was murdered by
an unknown negro, at his residence about five
miles from Richmond in Henrico county, Va. in
in the presence of his family. The Richmond Re-
publican gives the following particulars of the bru-
tai murder: A small negro girl, who was present,
says" the master was lying before the fire, asleep
and her mistress in corner. She was, also,
asleep, but hearing her master scream, walked up,
when she saw the negro beating him. He rhe
negro then lighted the candle. and asked her
where the money was, threatening, if she made
any alarm, to kill her. She could not tell him. He
made search found it, and started off In the direcs
ton of Hanover with that and the axe, telling her
if any body came and asked who had killed her
master and MISTRESS to tell them the devil had been
there She. also. states that her mistress went 10
the rescue of her master, when the negro knocked
her down with the axe, and, as he supposed, killed
her, Mr. White had in his employ some few ne
gro men, and from all the circumstances we can
gather we think it would not be amiss to confne
one or more of them. About eleven O'clock one
of these servants started off to carry jug of whs-
ky to neighbor, and instead of returning home,
was found after the murder, asleep in this neigh
boris kitchen He probably, was accessory to the
murder, and, by pursuing the proper course with
him. might be induced to throw some light upon
this horrid transaction. Mr.. White always bore a
fair name for honest, correct dealing, and was
very industrious. perseverjng and economical man,
and had laid up several hundred dollars-which he
delighted at all times to speak of-which, unques-
tonably, led to his death. He was about thirty
years of age. Mrs. White, though very badly in
ured, is not considered to be in dangerous condi
tou and hope after her reason is fully restored,
that she may be able to give clue by which
this nhuman villain will be detected. Two ne
groes have been arrested, on suspicion, and COM
mitted TO jail.
Inquest On examination by the Coroner it was
found that his left aw-bone and chin We're horribly
teeth were nearly all knocked out
his left temple severely brused-whe his left
shnuIder and left eye also showed marks Of VIOLENCE
