Henry Murty was many years ago
employed rs O deck-hand about Pitts
burg on steamers owned by the Poe
family. More lately lie was with Cap
tain Tom Rogers on the st. Louis and
New Orleans packet, W. II. Osborn.
Captain Rogers was his warmest friend,
taking great interest in his welfare,
and befriending him by example md
advice in such n manner that Henry
entertained strong affection for him.
Henry was only deck-hand or fire.
man, and certainly never rose TO a
higher grade than watchman, but he
was shrcwd fellow when sober,
which he generally was. De seemed
contcntcd with his position and his
wages, little thinking what great
things were in store for him. 1t will
be remembered with what Ghnstly
mlnutcness there was published in the
papers. less than two years ago, m nc
count Of the discovery Of the dccom-
posing corpse ofa human being in the
lonely room of n large building in this
city. The corpse was that Of Il man
named Sullivan. Henry Murty was
this Inu.l'o cousin aud his heir. SuIli-
wan WAS an old citizen, Of unsociablc
disposition and habits, and was pos
scsscd OF great wealth, rs the sequel
shows. Murly, as heir Of the deceased,
through the agency Of his lawyer, Mr..
Broadhea,l, was lately handed the sum
Of $4,000, aud tlIr real estate, lnnd-
and stocks which accrue TO him will
raise the entire amount of wealth now
possessed by this lately i'ricndcss and
Seemingly contcnicd lrishnIan TO four
or five hundred thousand dollars
What'lI he do with it?

A WARNING. The papers are filled with
the reports of horrible, nameless outrages, per-
petrated or attempted upon the persons OF
ladies, for the most part in secluded paths and
woods of the country, by demons in human
shape. We earnestly hope that these frequent
terrible outrages will warn young ladies, especi-
ally those who reside in the country, from ven.
turing away from their homes unless safely and
well attended. The subject is one not proper
to he lahnrAfed-indnod, is too painful and
terrible to be dwelt upon. But ladies ought,
for the sake of their honor and safety, to be
warned by the prevalence of these outrages,
and should not expose themselves, through
imprudence, to fate that is worse than death.

ALEXANDRIA.

1t was stated in the teegraphic dispatches
from London, published in yesterday Gazette
that the solicitors of Lady Byron's family have
written communication to theLondon journals,
distinctly stating that the article OF Mrs
Stowe in the Atlantic Monthly on the separa-
ton of Lord and Lady Byron is not complete
or authentic statement. and it does not involve
any direct evidence. They add that nothing
is communicated but recoections of CONVEX
sation had thirteen years since, and impress
sous derived under great excitement. With
out concediug that Mrs. Stoves narrative con-
tsins complete account of the relations
between Lord and Lady Byron, they protest
against ii as gross breach OF trust and con-
fidence, as inconsistent with Mrs. Stoves re-
concentrations to Lady Byron, and a violation
of the express terms of her will. Lady BY
ron s representatives and descendants absolute
" disclaim all countenance OF the article, which
was published without their privity or consent.
The London News thinks Mrs. Stowe nara
tive does not contain the whole truth, but is
true as far as goes. 1t cannot see that she does
anything but make fair exactitude OF history.
1t is stated that Mrs. Stowe will not reply to
her assailants till the English press has spoken,
when she can deal with them in one troadslde.
