LOVE. MURDER, AND SUICIDE,

A shocking tragedy was enacted in the town
OF Franklin, Norfolk County, in this State, last
Monday night. The facts, as we learn from
persons residing in the immediate vicinity,
are, in brief as follows:
Jonathan Wales, a young man, son of Mr.
Otis Wales, had been paying his addresses to
young lady named Susan B. Whiting, a
daughter of Mr.. James Whiting. For reasons
unnecessary to state, the lady rejected her
suitor-a disappointment which bore heavily
upon him. On Monday evening, both parties,
as we are informed, attended social gathering
at one of the neighbors. AT the close, which
was about midnight Miss Whiting started for
home, accompanied by young gentleman.
Wales followed them, and when he had over
taken them, deliberately pulled out a pistol
and shot Miss Whiting through the head.
She dropped, and died in less than two hours
Wales escaped, and, although immediate
search was made for him, he was not found
till yesterday morning, when suicides corpse,
stark, stiff, and clotted with gore, was found
on a neighboring hillside After committing
his life Immediately He was shot through the
left breast.
The suicide was % years of age, and his
victim only l6. Both had sustained good re-
putations, and both belonged to very respecta-
bic families, and distantly connected by mar
riage The discarding of Mr.. Wales by Miss
Whiting had caused considerable talk in the
neighborhood; it was thoughtlessly and fool
ishly made the subject of discussion in the
country lyceum and in various ways the
feelings of the discarded young man had been
greatly lacerated. Goaded to desperation-a
desperation near akin to insanity-he commit
ted the double tragedy which we have here
related. An occurrence of so much unming-
led horror seldom transpires in New England,
and, as may well be imagined, it creates great
sensation throughout the immediate neighbor-
hood and surrounding country,

"No OTHER PAPER HAS THE NEws."-The
London correspondent of the New York Tri-
bune produces wonderful revelation. 1t is
nothing less than that the Queens Govern
ment is determined to possess our sovereign
State of Maine. The project, says this astute
writer has led to the supplanting of Lord
Napier by Lord Lyons. The Britishers are
willing to pay a large sum for Maine but if it
cannot be bought, then it is to be taken by
force. In view of these facts, we call upon
Maj Jack Downing to call out his militia COM
pany and to man the two Pollies.

NOBLE GIRL.-A traveller coming East
from Detroit, relates the following pleasing I'M
cident:
"On reaching the depot, at Suspension
Bridge, the conductor told young man
whose health was very feeble, and who was on
his way to Springfield, Mass, where he had
friends-he must leave the cars, as he had no
money with which to pay his fare Notwith-
standing the debilitated appearance of the
young man, he was suffered to be led out of
the car without any movement being made for
his relief. AS the young man was about step
ping off the platform, young lady rose in
the car, and asked the conductor how much
the young mans fare would be to Albany
He replied, eight dollars. She Immediately
stepped to the door, and told the invalid to
return and resume his seat He did so, and
then some of the male passengers began TO
exhibit a little charity, offering to pay por-
ton of the fare. The young lady declined
their profered aid, saying she preferred TO pay
the amount herself She did SO and beside
gave him script" TO keep him in Albany
over Sunday, promising to see him afterward
to his friends on Monday"

MADAME BIsCACCIANTI.-Our music lovers
are to be gratifed this evening with an enter
tainment Of no ordinary character. Madame
Biscaccianti has ranked for years as the most
finished vocalist that has yet appeared among
our natiye-born songstresses. Her pure, clear
voice, and ardent, glowing, impulsive style,
were years ago recognized as something which
stamped her as one of the great singers. Since
that time she has visited the great centers of
musical ability, and has every where achieved
a success. She returns to her native place ma
tured in style, improved in method, and refined
in artistic execution. She is now giving a Sc
ries of concerts in our principal cities previous
to her departure for South America.
She will sing here this evening, and we can
heartily admonish our music lovers not to
omit the opportunity of hearing one of the
most finished and sympathetic vocalists ever
in the city, to say nothing of that natural de-
sire we all have to recognize native talent
when it comes in a form of which we may well
be proud.
She is accompanied by Mrs. HARDWOOD, who
has recently elected the most hearty common
dation from the most critical Boston journals,
for beautiful voice and refined, artistic style
Her rendering of "ah mon fills !' is said to be
unusually excellent.
