Dey~ A New York correspondent Of the
Springfield Mass Republican Says that ma
tural daughter of Aron Burr, and his rcsidna-
ry legatec, comes curiously into possession of
quite fortune, in this way: Burr held lease
from Trinity Church of the Richmond Hill pro.
perty, three or four hundred lots in the centre
of New York, for sixtysiX years. He re-leas,
ed the land for sixtythree years to Astor and
Others, and their lease expires in 1860. The
lease for three years then belongs to Bnrr's
daughter, and the claim is indisputable and
the value of the leases very great. Already
several of the lessees have compromised the
claim for from 81 500 to 50 900 per lot

TnE ALABAMA UNIVERSITY MuRDER--Ihe
Tuscaloosa (Ala) Observer gives detailed
account of the difficulty near the University
grounds, in which one student, E. L. Nabers,
of Pickens was killedby D. A. Herring, another
student from Miss, and the only one from that
State. The facts in the case, as shown by the
evidence, were substantially as follows:
"a week OF, so ago, the prisoner, Herring,
was much teased nv number Of his fellow stu
dents who boarded with him, because he was a
resident of State which had repudiated her
foreign debt, and this imputation Twas so often
thrown up to him on the College Campus, at
the boarding house. and other places, that 1t be-
came very annoying to the young man. ana he be
gave uttcrance 10 his displeasnre upon the suo-
iect. The other students perceiving this, con-
tinued to further harrass him, until ill-ieelings
were engendered on both sides. To so great an
extreme was this state Of things kept up, that
the Young man, fearing attack from theuI,
provided himselfwith q repeater, and on Friday
morning, just after leaving the breakfast table,
one of the parties in question pursued him and
bantered him for fight, and when the others
had gathered nround, struck him two blows
with a stick, when Nabers, rushing forward,
also struck him one or two blows with stick,
when the latter discharged his pistol, the ball
passing through the heart of Nabers, OF which
he died almost instantly. The whole OF the fol-
lowing day Wns consumed in examining the
witnesses and in the discussion OF the counsel
on both sides Of the question The Court DIS
charged the prisoner withoutrcqnirlng bail, on
the ground OF his having committed the act IN
self defence. ssss
3 1t was shown in evidence that Mr.. Herring
was a qniet and peaceablc y1nng man, Of uni'
form good department. *

MURDER AND SgICIDE.-We are indebted to the
messenger of Adams Express Company, the
Louisville and Frankfort Railroad for the following
particulars relative to Ofmurder and suicide;
Yesterday forenoon, the up-train was nearing the
depot at Pleasureville negro woman with young
child in her arms seen close to the track. The
whistle was sounded; but instead OF moving away she
turned her back to the road tossed her child over
head, and then threw herself across the track The
brakes were Immediately put down and the engine
reversed but too late. When the engineer had
succeeded in backing the locomotive and assistance
could be given, it found that one of the chlds
legs had been cut off, and that the woman's skull
was crushed through, death ensuing immediately
The bodies were put on the and taken to
Pleasureville. 1t appears that the woman belonged
to Mrs. Shpman, and that she had been hired out to
family in the vicinity of the town, which family
she had left in great anger. Her mistress told her
she must go back but she threatened to kill herself
and her child some fourteen months old, before she
would live in that family again. She had been seen
standing near the road, by gentleman on horse
back who intended to arrest her. but hearing the
he rode into the woods lest his horse should be
frightened, determined to take her so soon as the
cars passed. The accident occurred within seventy
five yards of a sudden in the road so that il
was utterly impossible to see her from the locomo-
tive until it was almost upon her. and entirely too
late to stop the train.-LoHsrWe Democrat, Mar. H.
