SHOCKING TRAGEDY.

The Gazette, published at Troy, Mo-, relates
shocking tragedy, said to have occurred in
Monroe County, in that State, recently. Ac-
cording 10 the GGeette's story, a gentleman sold
his farm for $4,000, deposited it in the house
with his family, and left home on business. Dur
ing his absence he stopped night At house
three miles from his own and while asleep,
dreamed twice that his family were supplicating
for help. He got up, dressed himself, and in
company with q German, started Tor his own
house.
The two in short time came to the house
in which light was discovered. This unfa-
vorabe omen at that hour of night, tit being
3o'c!ockl confirmed the husbands worst suspi-
clons. They approachedthe house, and looking
