The Henry County Tragedy.

The particulars OF this dread>
full affair differ little from the
first account published by tele-
graph. Vincent Witcher, Esq,
the chief actor in the tragedy,
is well known throughout Virgin
ia. He served many years in
the lower House of the Legisla-
ture, and subsequently represen-
ted his State Senate with signal
ability. He was prominent
member of the wing party, and
his name has been repeatedly
mentioned in connection with
the office of Governor Of the
Commonwealth. The Peters
burg Express thus paints the
scene:
