Tragedy In Washington.


On Sunday forenoon last, Daniel L.
Sickles, a Member of Congress from New
York City, accosted Philip b. key' u
S. District Attorney for Washington city,
in public. Mr.. Sickles accused Mr. Key
Of having scduced his wife, aud forthwith
fred a revolver, but it did not explode !;
Key seized Sickles, who again fired, sew
eriug an artery in Keys thigh Key then
retrea,ed behind a tree, aud on knees
begged for his life, but Sickles shot him
again through the body 4; Key was then
taken to club house, and in few min-
utes expired. Sicklcs surrendered HIM
self to the officers of the law, Was conduc-
ted to prison, and awaits regular trial.
He saws he intended to kill the villain and
is willing to abide the consequences,
The wife of Sicklcs is pretty, silly
woman, daughter of an Italian fiddler and
singer, aud has been educated solely to
follow the fashions and win the admira-
ton of men. Sickies loved her most de
votedIy, and had given her every indul
gence, which Key-a frequent visl'er-
had abused, since April last, by prostitu-
ting her to his wishes. When confronted
by her husband with the undoubted proofs
of her iufiielty the miserable being con
fcssed her crime and her ruin, and was
discarded by him for ever. Both parties
exhibited the most extreme anguish. They
have two children.
Key, the murdered man, was popular
and talented man, aged about 40 years
was widower, aud has left four children,
now more than orphans. His guilt and
his baseness are undOubted, and all the
circumstances were most aggravaiing to
the Injured husband but nothing can
fully Justify such extreme revenge. Both
Sicklcs aud Key have many friends IN III
hIential circles. Keys father-Francls
5 Key, E-q.-is known as the writer OF
the national song, "The Star Spaoelej

The English papers announce the death
