An AGED WOMAN BURNED 70 DEATH.-A letter
from Hall county. Georgia, says:
On last night, 10th inst, the residence of our
esteemed friend Paul Fur, of Hall county, was
consumed by FIRE, together with his kitchen and all
the furniture, clothes, beds and other property that
is usually kept in the house and kitchen. And
what is worse than all, and the most dire calamity
which can befall the human family, was that there
was an aged woman, the mether-inlaw Of Mr.
Furr, burned to death in the dwelling. She was
Mrs.- Thomas, the mother OF Mr.. Fnrrs present
wife, aged about ninety years. She was burned in
her bed chamber. The fire had advanced so far
that no relief could be given to her when first dis
covered. Tt occurred about 10 or IL o'clock, and
was supposed to be accidental.

MYSTERIOUS MuRDER.-The Memphis Bulletin Of
the Sd has the following
At an early hour on Wednesday night two mem
bers of the river police discovered man lying on
the leyee opposite the foot of Jefferson street. who
had evidently been the victim of foul play He
was taken up and removed to the city jail, when,
on examining his person., it was ascertained that
his head had been bruised and beaten in a shock
ing manner. the top portion of the skull having
been broken by the force of blows, evidently adj
ministered by a bludgeon, or some such weapon.
The unfortunate man was insensibie when discoy-
cred and remained in that condition up to the mo-
ment of his death-about I O'Clock yesterday
morning-and was consequently unable to furnish
any Information either respecting himself or the
manner of the occurrence. Coroner Horne subse-
quently held an inquest over the body, when it
was identified as that of - Oscar, formerly
cook on the steamer Glendale, and more recently
employed in that capacity ON the White river
packet +. NJ. Ryland. The verdict of the jury was
TO the effect that the deceased came to his death
from blows on the head, administered by some
person or persons unknown No clue as to the
causes prompting the murder, or the identity of
the perpetrators Of the deed, had been discovered
up to a late hour last night, and it is more than
probe the affair will forever remain q mystery.
