The citizens of most other country towns, like
our own, have suffered from periodical visits of
class OF ultra-fashionaby dressed young gentlemen
from the Northern cities, out humbugging their en-
pIoyers with the idea that they fitted to drum"
up custom by making themselves popular with coun-
try merchants. Most of them, however, disgust our
business men, by their staggering air their drum
ming visits, even more than they annoy on their
semiannual dunning visits. Quite number Of them
met here some days since and while they were pop
ping champagne copisusly at dinner, the following
placard was posted about town:

MURDER OF BRoTHER.-William Van Wormer,
Of Milford, Otsego county, shot his brother John,
on Thursday Of last week. The Schoharie Sentinel
says" They were in the field together when
William went towards the house for his gun, which
he had loaded with shot. Meeting his son, young
lad, on the way, be sent him for the gun saying
that he desired to shoot woodchuck. The boy pro-
cured the gun for him, when he told his son be
eeuld return to the house and William went back
towards the field. Soon the boy heard the discharge
of the gun, and supposing his father had shot the
game, ran down to the field when he found his
father had shot his uncle, John Van Wormer who
was so seriously injured to leave little hope Of his
recovery" The alarm was Immediately given, but
before any one reached the premises the murderer
had fed. He was instantly pursued, and was
caught the next day near the city. No one was
present at the ARRAY, but from the appearance of
the wounded man the muzxle of the gun must have
been near his face. One Of his hands and his jaws
are dreadfully shattered; his teeth knocked out
and several shot passed through his windpipe aud
lodged in his neck.
