HORRIBLE TRAGEDY IN SOUTH DANvERs.
On Thursday morning, about O'Clock, man
named James Brown, living with his sister,
Sally Brown, at place called The Rocks, ;
In South Danvers, near the boundary of Lynn,
murdered his sister by shooting her and stab
bing her in two places, and then committed
selt-murder by cutting his throat An Irish
man named Comfret, who lived with them,
was out of doors, and on hearing the report of
the gun went in to ascertain the cause. He
was told by Mr.. Brown to run for the neigh
bors, for his sister was dying. He did so, and
when he returned with others the man had
killed himself by deep incision in his throat,
and his sister was breathing her last. Brown
was man of singular temper, who had long
been at variance with other members of his
family, but was on friendly terms with his
sister. He had an alteration with his father
year ago, and attempted to shoot him, but
was prevented by one of his brothers. He was
at times gloomy and misanthropic, but beyond
this there was nothing to lead 10 the SUPPOSE
tlon that he was insane. His sister had been
an inmate of an insane hospital A coroner's
jury, after hearing the evidence in the case,
returned verdict that the woman came 10 her
death by the discharge of gun in the hands
of James Brown, and that he came 10 his death
by awound inflicted upon himself with ra-
Zor.

ANOTHER TROUBLE IN MIssoURI.-H may
be recollected that some time ago Mr.. George
5. Park, one of the editors of the Parksvile
Luminary, was compelled to leave the place
owing 10 some excitement against him on the
slavery question. He has lately been invited
to return for the purpose of settling some bust
ness involving his own interest and that of
many of the citizens Of Parkville. On his re-
turn new excitement ensued, and private
meeting of persons hostile to him, living in
another town, was held with view TO expel
him again. This has produced a reaction in
favor of Mr.. Park, and an address TO the peo-
pie of Platte county and of the State of Mis-
souri, has been issued by eleven prominent
gentlemen, as a committee, declaring their de-
termination to resist all interference from 9TH
er quarters with their own affairs, and to pro-
tect Mr.. Park in the pursuit of his lawful
business and in witness of this they pledge
their lives and honor. The handbill proclaim
ing this determination was dated on the Sth
instant. The sequel of this invasion of the
right of self-government will probably soon be
known.
