suIorDE.--At daylight yesterday morning the
body of young German, named Henry Schuren-
berg, was found suspended by the neck to a
tree IN the center Of Rampant street, naked and
lifeless. The Coroner repaired to the place,
cut down the body, and held an inquest, 1T
appears from q statement made by the brother
of the deceased that he had been for day or
two laboring under an attack of the yellow
fever. His brother had sat up with him at q
house on Rampant street, the previous night,
until o'clock in the morning, when Henry re-
quested him to lay down and refresh himself
with few hours repose, stating that he would
get along very well. The brother did SO, and
slept about an hour When he awoke Henry
was missing; he Immediately instituted search,
and found him as above stated He had doubt
less, while his brother slept, become delirious,
left the house, and anticipated the dire disease
by shutting off his mortal coli, using his under
shirt for that purpose. When found, his feet
were resting firmly on the ground, and he did
not appear to have been strangled. The jury
returned a verdict of g suicide by hanging,
while in delirium, produced by yellow fever. .
The deceased was eighteen years of age
ISQuEsrs-The Coroner, on Saturday, held
an inquest on the body of Bryan Burns, aged
seventeen years, native of ireland, found dead
in the Charity Hospital. Verdict: s'Came to
his death from injuries received by the Carroll
ton cars accidentally passing over his body, on
Sunday evening, 18th inst" This case was re-
ported by us last Monday. The lad was taken
to the Hospital with one of his legs horribly mu-
tilated, 1t was amputated very skillfully and
every effort was made to save his life, but in
vain; and after suffering the greatest agony
for six days, he died on Saturday morning.
Another inquest was held on Saturday at the
engine house of No. 10, on the body of Ger
man named Martin Heiser, aged "a years. YER
dict, 'scongestiye fever" This young man was
police on last Monday night, and committed to
prison the following day by acting Recorder
Fillieul. The Coroner was sent for in this case,
because there vas reason to believe that Heis-
lers death had been caused by blows said to
have been inflicted upon him in the lower part
of the abdomen by the police with their clubs
when he was arrested. But after thorough
examina ton the jury were convinced that his
death was the result of congestive fever.
