EIear!rending Calamity.

From the NIorristown IN. j. Banner, Aug. l..
On "Wednesday evening last gentleman
living near Communipew Lane, Hudson county
we have not learned his name-met with a
sudden and untnnely end, under the following
circumstances. 1t appears that he had 10 his
house three barrplpd pistol, loaded He told
his wife that he believed he would discharge
HE load. She replied that she would like to
fire them of, ito which he consented, nstructing
her to be careful TO point the pistol upward.-
She did so, and two barrels went off. The third,
she told him, missed fire.
He replied that perhaps il might not be load
ed, and requested her to hand Il to him for ex-
animation. But, alas for all human calcula-
tions--she snapped it again il proved to be
loaded, and she holding it in wrong position;
instead Of the ball going apward, il entered the
heart of her husband, killing him instantly.
This married couple were devotedly attached
TO each other, and we learn that the uniortu-
nate seIf-madr widow is now frantic with grief
and unutterable agony, bordering on insanity,
in view of this terrible catastrophe.
