Fatal and Shocking Shooting
Affair.

From the Washington States Of Thursday
This morning, one of the most painful ca
Ses Of shooting occurred which it has been
our unpleasant duty to record for some time,
and which has resulted in the death of the
party, Lewis Jones,a young man aged about
twenty-one, and clerk in the General Land
Office. The circumstances attending i t, as
lar as we are enabled to learn, appear to be
as follows:
Young Jones was spending last evening
with some friends on Massachusetts avenue,
and some occasion presenting itself he found
his pocket book missing. He wrote a note
to his mother W idow lady, who resides on
the south side of New York avenue, between
9th and 10th streets. The note was deliver
ed, and reply made that she would much
prefer he would come and get it himself,
AS it seemed that she was a little fearful that
he was intending to be absent that night or
to leave the city.
Not getting the pocket book, he returned
to his mothers residence, where he was most
kindly admonished on being so wild, and in
being absent from home so much of his time,
and urgently persuaded to remain more at
home with his mother and sisters. After
this friendly conference with his only parent
with the family, his mother again took him
aside, and beseeched him kindly to do better
in future; to leave those companions who de-
tanned him from his home and to live more
win his parent and sisters, at the same time
throwing his arms around his neck and kis-
ing him.. ....s.
Ie appeared to heed her for moment,
but withdrew from her arms, and then sud
denly drawing pistol, remarked: 81 have
i +
''AIother, see what am going to do" and
presenting the pistol to his forehead, fired
The ball entered about the centre of his fore
head, and he sank almost liteles into his
agmized parents arms. The alarm was Civ
en- and the household was soon present, to-
gether with the neighbors and passers-by.-
PLY sicians were Immediately. summoned,
who probed the would but could not find the
tail, the wound was large and frightful,
indeed, owing to the proximity of the pistol
to his head. He remained inSensible, writh-
my in the agonies OF pain, until death re-
lieVed him OF his sutferings. This sad oc-
currence happened at about 8 o'clock, and
he died at twenty minutes past o'clock this
afternoon.
This is not the first attempt he has made
to commit suicide, he having taken an over
dose OF laudanum short time since but
which failed in its object
Yesterday he applied to frie nd of his to
hr a his second in duel which he expected
To take a part, caused, we believe, by love
affair.
The deceased was very small for his age,
and was the son of the late Geo II. Jones,
assistant secretary to the President to sign
iand patents. AT the death OF his father he
,ook his place in the Land Office and was the
sole support of his family.
DR.. Young and other physicians did every
thing in >pheir power for the sufferer. q
