In the woods at Braintree, yesterday,
two hunters discovered the dead bodies of
two persons, frozen stiff. They laid side
by side. One of them proved TO be wo-
man in male attire. 1t appears that they
reached Quincy, near Braintree, in Novem-

Ohio, and passed as half brothers After
a stay Of eight days, during which the
man worked at boot making, they went in
to the woods and committed suicide. The
female was about II, and well educated
and of higher station than the man. They
were great believers in Spiritual knock

Messrs. Editors:-At the request Of
several citizens OF our village, send the
following account Of the recent tragedy
which occurred among us Oh the llth
inst.
The citizens Of our village were, two
days since, thrilled with horror by the
spectacle Of a man being shot down IN our
streets. The names Of the parties were
John Mann and Charles Riggs; the former
fall bv a pistol shot from the latter. Both
were yonnp mon and both colored. The
cause Of The quarrel between them is un-
derstood to have been substantially as fol.
lows:
:. Mann, some three weeks since, had
married white woman Of infamous char
acler, with whom it is understood that
Riggs had previously lived in criminal in,
timacy, in Detroit 1t should be stated,
moreover, that Mann's marriage with this
woman took place in neighboring Town,
and found no sympathy among the people
of our village.
Early in the present week, an aneny.
nous letter was carried to Mann's wife by
known friend of Riggs, which, by some
means, fell into the hands of Mann. 1t
was by him ascribed to Riggs, and as 1t
contained Infamous proposals to his wife, 1t
not unnaturally reused up his fiereest Jea-
lousy and rage. Tuesday he met Riggs
charged his letter upon him, and threat
ened his life. AS Mann was known TO be
violently passionate, Riggs seemed to have
good reason 10 fear for his life, and appli-
ed to the civil authorities for protection.-
lnahis application, he was, unfortunately,
not successful. He then armed himself;
shortly after, met Mann on the sidewalk
armed with heavy club. Mann threat.
ened. Riggs suddenly drew his pistol and
shot him in the head. The shot was In
s.antly fatal.
The more particular circumstances
bearing upon the justification or guilt of
Riggs, | pass without notice, and with no
expression of opinion as to the question OF
his guilt. The case is already in the pro-
cess Of judicial investigation, the results OF
which vii. soon be known.

He states that one of the "rank and file" "
under his command, once discharged six
shots at barrel rooling down long hill.
Upon the barrel reaching the bottom OF
the hill it was examined, and no mark of a
bullet was discovered upon it, whereupon
his comrads began TO ridicule him. He,
however, coolly desired them to shake the
barrel, by doing which they found tina,
