had lost his life by drowning, was found
lying upon the river bank Thursday
morning, about IL O'Clock, on the prop
erty OF the Edge Moor Iron Company, a

formerly belonging to Samuel Harlan,
Esq. Upon learning the fact the Coroner
was promptly notified, and that officer
was quickly on the ground. A jury of
inquest was drawn frGm among the
operatives at the eompany's works, and
verdict rendered Of death from supposed
drowning. No marks were discovered
upon bis person which would lead to the
belief that death was caused by violence,
although the advanced state Of decompo-
sillon precluded a thorough examination
of the body. Ieeeased was found lying
PROSTATE upon dis back, clothed In q
manner indicating that he had belonged
to the laboriug class, aud that he was
neither pauper nor vagrant. Neither
money nor valuahes were found upor
