A correspondent from Attakapas gives this pain
full story Of accidental fratricide and suspected
murder:
will enter upon recital which, while wrapt
in mystery, has left painful anxiety in the minds
Of many persons.
A gentleman by the name of Butcher, until
about four weeks ago, had been keeping the Light
house on Vermilion Bay. Hs was practicing
with revolver, and it appears he was within the
door shooting at the mark outside-hence he could
not see any one unless he passed in front of The
door. His pistol was levelled, and while in the
act of pulling the trigger, his brother came in
front. He saw him, but too late and the fatal bull.
let sped on, and his brother fell dead. Some per-
sons have thought that b., after the accidental
death Of his brother, was not in his right mind at
all times. B. was at the residence of Mr. Camp
bell, on the Vermillion, on the way to his home
Having left Mr.. C.'s, as he was about to pass a
certain point. he obsesved some men vho.s suspi.
.cious appearance made him turn back and seek at
Mr.. C.'s for some persons to accompany him. He
went alone. and like many a one who seeks his
home, he never arrived at the Light house. What
became of him and his boat is not known.
Hard upon this, and as if coming on to elucidate
the mysterious disappearance of B., stranger,
armed with double. barreled shot. gun, has been
seen prowling in the neighborhood, below Perry's
Bridge. To the negroes of Mr. Cade's plantation
he has several times shown himself He pretended
that he was hunting for a runaway negro, and has
asked after the overseer but takes good care not to
see him.
He was in an island (trees) in swamp, and
some eight persons suffered him to escape. From
one circumstance, signal horn blown at mid

FIVE DAYS LATER FROM BERMUDA.-By the
arrival at New York of the BIRTHS ship Princess
Royal, Captain Doe, from Bermuda, on the 2lst,
the New York papers have the Royal Gazette to
the 10Th. Between the 18th and 18th ult, seven
sail vessels left Bermuda, laden with potatoes,
onions, omttoes, and arrow root, for different
ports. 80 barrels potatoes, 1878 lbs arrow root.
and 664 boxes tomatoes, arrived in New York in
one day, from thence
A writer in the Gazette, speaking of the market
of Bermuda, says:
Bermuda unites in remarkable degree, per.
haps more so than any other portion of the globe,
characteristics of the torrid and temperate zone.
Fruits supposed to be peculiar to each cheerfuIlv
grow in her soil. Truly may it be said, that while
neighborlng regions are bound with ice, and
covered with snow, her soil is green, Quick and
prolific in the best fruits of the earth The writer
has had chiefly in mind traits that 20 into the
ktchen-to wit, green peas, green corn, and eve nv
kind of green thing that our neighbors and kindred
over the way are fond of-lettuce cauI,flower, Gu.
cumbers, cabbage, turnps, beets, celery, aspara.
gus, potatoes, onions, melons, pumpkins, radshes,
tomatoes, etc, etc. Our summer fruits, too, in
almost countless variety, would be in advance OF
our nelghbors, however on the alert or vipilant
they might be, when their spring sets in. The
seasons In Bermuda are two months in advance of
the middle and Eastern States. Bermuda rears
and gathers, when they sow and plant"
