Horrible Suicide.-We copy the following ac-
count Of dreadful suicide, from the Cassvle
(Geo) STANDARD, Of the oath ult:
Early on the morning OF the 10Th utimo, the
sleepers Of Mr.. Burrs's hotel, Of this place were
aroused by the report of gun. Some young men,
sleeping Immediately over the room of the deceas-
ed, when the report was second time heard, II
being yet dark went down and succeeded in rails
ing window, rushed to the room in question,
where they found deceased about breathing his
last. His name is said to be Jeremiah King, per-
haps at one time of Charleston, which inference
is drawn, we believe, from his having draft in
his possession on one of the Charleston banks.
Mr.. King came to this place eight or ten days
previous to his death, and was observed to be OF
very singular manners; SO much so, he was sup
posed at least partially deranged. More than one
circumstance led Mr. Burris to the opinion that it
would be proper 10 confne him, but he abandoned
that opinion at the suggestion Of others. He said
he was not guilty Of any crime TO cause his de-
lection and deranged state Of mind but yet he
had done enough 10 make him miserable beyond
endurance.
Mr.. King was, perhaps, thirty-fve years of age,
rather fair complexion, black hair, inclined 10
curl five feet, six or eight inches in height, with
rather peculiar eye, having CLASSY appearance.
He bore the marks of previous violence upon
himself; his throat being considerably scared.
Before shooting himself he seems to have taken
his knife and ripped open his bowels, severng an
intestine. He then seems 10 have taken the same
knife and dropped il into already loaded gun,
which he had by some means contrived to get
hold OF, and placing the muzzle TO his temple, with
his foot and handkerchief fired il of. The shot
took effect in the back of his head tearing terri
bic hole while the knife was found buried TO the
Jaws in his temple.
No doubt this dreadful suicide was caused by
liquor; the deceased being dissipated character,
and had just come of long "spree."

HALIFAX. Dec 6.-The steamship Humboldt, OF
