The deceased left the residence of her

comfort and aid her mourning relations who
had already been bereft of a part of their
family circle BY the relentless destroyer,

over the spirits of those whom she desired
to encourage and condole, and has deepen,

were recently called to mourn the death, in
the same vicinity, Of a son, a daughter-in-

A FAMILY OF DEspERADoEs.

A man named Walter Naythe, was
killed recently in Cincinnati, in drunken
frolic. The incident gives occasion to
the Cincinnati Commercial to recapitu-
late the various facts of the family, who
all seemto have been despe'adoes. First,
Smith Msythe, after performing various
exploits in his vocation as robber, after
having broken several pen&entiaries,
meets with death upon the scaffold by
the summary hands Of an incenScd mob
in Kentucky. Scott Maythe, connected
with band of coun.erfeiters on an island
in the Mississippi, was shot down and
killed by officers, in the vicinity of Man
chester. Another of the brothers was
killed in St. Louis, and another is DOW in
the Ohio Pcnitentiary. To close the IL
famous career of this family of desper-
ADDE'S. Walter Maythe, who had served
in peaitentiaries and jails for his crimes,
was killed in brawl on Friday last. So
ends the race. .-.
