The following We take from a late num-
Der Of the Republican Banner, published at
Salisbury n. &.
at appears that a woman. wife Of John
ilanncy, an lrisbman, was seen by "A negro
lying in her night clothes, in y field as he
supposed dead. He raised The alarm and
on visiting the spot, she was discovered to
be alive with several frightful gashcs in
her head on going to the house in which
she lived, about one hundred yards distant
the body of her husband, John i~lanncy
was found dead, his head awfully manglcd
with an an axe which was found by his
side. The w"man was taken 60 the house
in n state of insensibility she died about
IL o'clock. 1t is supposed the deed was
done, just before day light. A Coroner's
inquest was held over the body Of ~lianncy.

MELANCHOLY DEATH.

IL is not often that death under circum-
stances similar to the following, occurs in
a Southern climate. DR.. Harris, of Cabarrus
\. {, father-in-law of our fellow townsman,
NJ. T.. Crawford, Esq, was found frozen
to death on Tuesday, morning of the Goth
inst, 1t appears, that at about II o'clock
on Monday night, he left n gcnileman's
house, by name Erwin, where he had been
transaciing some business, 10 90 to a Mr..
Bradfnrd's about two miles distant and
while on his way, it appears that he got from
has horse for some purpose-pcrhaps to
pick up his pipe, which he had lighted, and
which it seems he dropped, and in the effort
to recover it, his horse got loose from him.
1t Was ascertOincd by tracks through the
snow, that he followed his horse for some
distance, and wandered from The main road
and when he final y gave up The pursuit a.
Fruitless, and started for Mr.. BradCords
house. he lost his way. The night vas
dark,as and will be remembered by all,il wa.
intensely co!d-thc snow was three feet

miles, in II circle, near Mr.. Bradfords house,
and finally died from extreme cold and en-
hausti"n, VIXEN within one hundr"l yards of
it. DR.. Harris was about fifty Years of age;
was an umiaGld, highly respected and cxem-
pIary man.

A NEW HOTEL.

A short time since, the Sign for the old
Catawba House was torn down, and some
apprehension was manifested, that there
would be no regularly kept Hotel in iancas-
ter the present year. We arc glad, howey-
er, to be able to say TO transient visitors and
TO the travelling community, that no uneasi.
hess need be felt upon the score of proper
accommodations Mt this place, as Mr.. A. J..
Bcldon is preparing and fitting up for IIo-
tel, the house occupied as such for several
years by Mr.. A. Mayer, and lastly by Messrs
Ballard g. Hunter. Mr.. Beldon is admira-
bIy suited to the vocation, and we venture
that he will be found a pleasant and hos
pitable host. The house is undergoing a
thorough renovation, and when ready for
the reception of customers, Mr.. b. will
doubtless give fair notice thereof through
the Ledger.

FATAL AFFRAY.

On Thursday morning last, says the Cam.
den Journal, Coroner DELAY was called
upon to hold an Inquest over the body Of
Chas. II. Evans. who had Been shot the
night before at the house Of Mary Bowen,
about eight miles from Camden. by n man
named Chrsiey Boatwright. 1t appears
that the deceased and several other persons
met at Mrs. Bowcn's, and among the nun
Der was nnatwright. They had been drink
ing and dancing, and when the party broke
up and were about separating, a difficulty
sprung up between Evans and Boatwright,
which led TO harsh words, and terminated in
the death of Evans. We do not feel inclIn-
ed TO go into details, or to comment upon
this shocking occurrence. Boatwright has
been committed to Jail to await his trial,
and a Jury of the country will adjudicatc
the case.
