The WEYMOUTH TRAGEDY.-The facts in regard
to the recent tragedy at Weymouth are gradually
being developed, and as the curtain slowly lifts.
the public catch gimpses of one of the most terri
bic crimes ever perpetrated in New England. We
give such additional facts have come to light
The jury of inquest on the body of Mary Tirrell,
the Youngest sister, and the one whose death first
occurred, held another session this forenoon at 10
O'Clock, according to adjournment from Tuesday
last, at the Office of Elijah F. Hall, ESQ.,, the fore
man, but no business done beyond the exami-
nation of the official reports of their testimony by
several of the witnesses who have previously testi-
he'd, and atllxing their signatures. Mr.. Hall, yes
State Assayer, wnu 3Inr@S eu as Gifeiniuai
analysist in these cases and it was expected that
report would be ready by to. day. But Dr. HAYES
informed Mr.. Hall that as the body had been for
some time buried, and as decomposition had to a
considerable extent taken place, the processes Of
analysis were necessarily very delicate and had to
be conducted with unusual care, and great slow
ness lie had not, therefore, been able to complete
the examination, and it is not known as vet wheth-
er any poison has been found Dr. HAYES will prob
ably be through with his analysis by Tuesday next
but as Ilersey is to be examined on that day the
coroner decided to adjourn the case till Wednes-
day next. On Monday, at 2P NJ, the inquest on
the body of Betsey Frances the oldest girl will be
continued, and the jury may reach verdict
that day. On Wednesday last, the day after the .
disinterment of the body of Mary TirrelI, Dir. APP
pleton Howe brought portions of the body to this
city Tor the purpose ofascertainng the view OF some
prominent physician IN relation to the SuppOSltlOn
that she might have been in the same condition
as her sister at the time other death. As we have
stated the examining physicians of opinion
that she was, but they wished to have their views
corroborated or diSproved by some physician who
has made more of specially of that part of the
medical profession. After visiting several, DR..
Jeffres Wyman, of Cambridge, was called on, and
consented to make the examination This has now,
we understand, been completed, and DIR. Wyman
has come to the conclusion, after very careful
examination, that their opinion correct. There
is therefore but little doubt that the unfortunate
girl was also the victim of a seducer.
From BUENos AYREs.-Files of Buenos Ayrean
journals furnish intelligence from River Plate to
the 3Oth of March. The political news is of inter
est. The government, or at least the commission,
named to arrange the details of a return of the
State to the Argentine Union, had been raising diff
fculties in the way of the Incorporation and by
various overt acts had indicated intention to
disregard the treaty signed in December last, and
remain independent. The prevalent impression of
the foreign residents was that public declaration
of design to regard that treaty null would
soon appear and that the Argentine government
would at once resume hostilites. In regard to the
exploring expedition of Com. Page, the Commercial
Times says, quoting from the Asuncien SemiHurio:
"'The American steamer Alpha left on the 22d of
November last, under the command of Capt. Page
to explore the river BermeO, and arrived back on
the 9th inst, at the port of Humaia at ~ p. NJ.
She has ascended to distance of 80 leagues below
Oran, but did not reach that province by land
The expedition assembled and returned without fur
ther incident than being shot at with arrows by
tribe of Indians, about one hundred leagues below
the ESquina Grande, who were dispersed by few
musket shots. She brought word of the approach
of the steamer Bermejo, which was left by the Al
pha, about one hundred leagues in the interior,
not being able to accompany her. The commander
OF this vessel asked permission to proceed immedi
ately, which was granted. The Metacomet has
been added to the American Exploring Expedition,
we believe, as hospital or store ship.
