Brutal Murder in Mid day.

The most intense excitement was created
about one O'Clock yesterday by the discovery
of most brutal murder in mid day, at No.
los Baltimore street, Immediately opposite
the Gazette office, gentleman named H. B..
Grove, proprietor Of photographic estao-
lishmeni, being the victim. The discovery
of the horrible deed was first made by
a young man named John D. Philips, an
employee of the murdered man, who, Upon
discovering the dead body of his employer,
gave Information TO the authorities and i'm
mediately gave himself up 10 await an in-
vestigation. Coroner Brewer enpanneled
jury of inquest, before whom Mr.. Philips
testified that deceased had gone TO his GAL
lery at an early hour in the morning to at
tend 10 business, it being his custom TO
take pictures on Sunday, with ar under
standing that witness was 10 relieve him al
1 O'Clock; at that hour witness went TO the
gallery, and upon entering small room,
used for finishing up the pictures when
taken, was Mortified at beholding deceased
lying dead upon the floor, wellering in his
blood. MIR. F. D. Spicer, who resided in
the adjoring house, deposed that about
lo3 O'Clock A. M. he distinctly heard pis
tol shot, but supposed it was boy in the
adjoining house shooting at rats, and paid
no further attention TO il until be learned of
The murder. 1t was farther shown in evil
dence that Mr.. Philips a, that hour was at
his home on Ensor street, thus removing all
suspicion which might have attached TO
him in the matter. Upon an examination
of the body by Drs. Becker and Stephenson,
bullet wound in the back of the head was
found, from which his brains were oozing
ou;, which, taken together with the fact
that no pistol was found, would at once
contradict any idea of suicide. A gold
watch, 500 in money, and diamond pin,
which deceased was known 10 have had
upon his person, were also missing. The
jury, after deliberation, rendered verdict
"ihai deceased came to his death from
pistol shot fired by some one unknown 10

age, a single man, and hailed from Carlisle,

Autumn Leaves.
Nature decked in gaYest Beauty,

Nature decked in gayest beauty,
For It's summers last goodbye
Why should all things fair in nature
Don their liveliest iints 10 die?
Why upon the loftiesl branches
Should the leaves be blushing So
To impress Us with their beauty,
And 10 conquer ere they go?
Some have chosen scarlet dresses,
Some are decked in green and gold,
Others wear their summeEgarmenls,
Though the winds are growing cold.
All are happy, all are joyous;
'Tis perhaps their gala day,
And they meet with blushing beauty
Ere they hasten far away.
All +! but listen, is that music
Are their greetings gay or sad9
Do they tremble now for sorrow
Or because they're gay and glad1
'Tis moi music that we're hearing,
1t is but the north winds breath
AS he issues forth his orders,
And their sentence now is death.
Look upon the mossy green sward,
1t is not their gala day
They are dressed in gold and crimson,
For they're Fastening TO decay.
And the blush we're SO admiring
Is the forerunner of doom;
Like the hectic flush of beauty,
Ere ii sinks into The tomb
Or the rosy hue of even,
That is glowing iu the West,
When night impatient seeks TO reign,
And the sun sinks 10 his rest.
