And If some corner in your heart

ARLSTOTLE-KELLEY.

From Aristotle down to Adam Smith,
The growth of knowledge kept steady pace,
And man of mans experience deeply taught,
The subtle laws Of finance learned to trace.
But from Ricardo down to William Kelley,
To say this pace were kept were quite untrue,
Since dead Ricardo now might rise and tell
More than the living Kelley ever knew.

MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR.
A Dead Body Found in a Well Near
LOretto.

On last Monday night about III
O'Clock, Messrs. NJ. NJ. Powell and
Herman Bruning came to town and
said that man had been found dead
in well, about one mile from Mr.
Powell's, and on the premises of a
German citizen named John Lang.
They consulted the County Judge as
to what course to pursue, and about
one O'Clock they, i'm company with
James Logue, started back to have
him taken out and an inquest held
over the body. When they reached
the well the body was found to be
floating on the water, which proved
that it had been there since the 9th
inst, thus making nine days before it
rose to the top, the family having been
using water out of the well during
this time. \ jury was summoned,
consisting of Jesse Conner, Zachariah
Belew, John Lang, Henry HOllinden,
Herman BruninG, ID. q. Ellison and
Henry Kaeing, with Esq. Powell as
Coroner, and they proceeded to take
the body out and hold the inquest.
When the body was taken out no one
present recognized it. Mr.. Belew said
that man resembling him was at his
house on Friday, the 9Th inst, and
told him that he lived Six miles north
of 1Iawrenceburg, which was all that
could he learned. After the examina-
ton the jury returned a verdict that
the deceased had come to his death by
being drowned in a well, the cause or
manner of getting into which was un-
known. The deceased was about 16
years old had on no shoes, hat or coat
There were no marks violence found
anywhere on the body. After the ver-
dict was rendered Mr.. Green came
up who said that the deceased was at
Lexington, Ala, the latter part of
week before last, and called his name
Walters, saying that he lived near
Lawrenceburg. AS James LOgue re-
turned home on Tuesday, he saw Mr..
Walters, living three miles south of
town, and from the description and
circumstances, recognised the de-
ceased as his son. Hesent immediate
ly to see, and found his suspicious to
he correct. He will have the the body
removed and inferred at the Catholic
at this place.-LdWTe1cc-
