man by the name of David Sinclair, was
found last evening dead near the abutment
of the railroad bridge on the Benton side of
the river. He probably fell from the bridge
one week ago last Saturday night while intoxi-
Gated. He was last seen about o'clock that
evening. About that time he came into the
hardware store of j. II. Gibreth in this vii
lage, just as the clerk was about to close the
store for the night. lie was then so intoxi-
Gated that he was obliged to hold on to the
sides of the door as he came in 1t is sup
posed that he attempted to cross the bridge to
the house of Mr.. Burgess in Benton, about
half mile from the bridge, and as he reached
the farther end of the bridge, he stumbled and
fell to the rocks below, distance of from 40
to 60 feet He was found lying partly under
the bridge, (ths probably accounting for his
not having been discovered before,) upon his
back with frightful wound in his forehead,
with one arm in natural position by his side
and the other raised to, or above his head, his
hat lying near by. lie had laid there probably
more than week, with his poor body exposed

A timid gentleman living on Cushnoc
heights in this city, has been disturbed in his
slumbers recently by hearing strange noises
about the premises, causing him to rise from
his sleepless couch and pace to and fro the
floor with loaded revolver in his hand and
but scanty habiliments about his person. One
of his near neighbors had been engaged for
several nights in the delightful pastime of
numbering rats, chasing the ''varmints'
through every part of the house, Staying not
exactly his ''thrice ten thousand" but very
successfully supplying the place of ''rat-tan
terrier" few nights ago the rat slayer was
unusually demonstrative, the uproar raised
led our timid individual to suppose that some
one was breaking into his domicile to rob him
of his treasures. amounting to a couple OF
hundred dollars, slowed away between the
beds. He speedily jumped from his bed,
seized the revolver and cooked it; at that very
instant he thought he saw the burglar glide
past the window; the trigger was pulled, the
the discharge ensued and the trembling MIR.
Timid staggered to the window to behold the
corpse of his victim, weltering in gore. On APP
preaching the scene he found the glass, the sash
and the blinds smashed, but no dead burglar.
1t seems that previously TO his retirement he
had closed the aforesaid window and blind,
and the supposed midnight marauderwas but
the reflection of himself upon the glass, from
the dim light of lamp left burning in the
room. The little incident has been ''rats" for
the neighbors.

Willard Il. Gannett, son of Mr.. Joseph +.
Gannett of this city, committed suicide by
drowning in the river, nearly opposite his
fathers residence, on Sunday evening. He
was noticed to leave the sitting room, in which
were several members of the family, about
half-past seven o'clock in the evening. He
had laid aside his coat, and it was supposed
that he had merely stepped to the door or to
some other part of the house. AS he did not
make his appearance at the usual hour of re-
tirlng search was made for him. From the
door of the house he was tracked to the bank
of the river, and from there to pier, a short
distance from shore. 1t is thought that he
might have waded to the pier and jumped off
and met his fate, or plunged headlong into
the water near the pier. The darkness of the
night prevented any effort being made for the
recovery of his body. Efforts were made all
day yesterday to recover the body, but with
out obtaining it. Young Gannett was twenty
years of age. For almost three years he was
an apprentice at the Office of the kennebec
Journal, but was compelled two or three years
since to relinquish the business on account OF
