Terrible Tragedy in Wytheville, Va.— LYNCTIBLTIIG. April 3.—A terrible tragedy occurred at Wytheville -on Saturday night, resulting in the death of an old and respected citizen, and the dangerous wounding of three others. lt-appears that for some time past a man named J. Austin-Glithatn. has been pay ing his attentions to-the - daughter__ of Mr... W . Spitler, who is reported to be worth about 5200,000. Graham was unsuccessfurity . suit, from the fact that the young lady was en gaged to be married to a physician named Dr. Hamet. Grahatir,_on account of this state of things, has bees( very violent, and threatened to take the life of his rival the first opportuui- . ty that offered. On Saturday night, about 10 o'clock, ,Gra ham entered the Wytheville Hotel. kept by Mr. Thomas J. Boyd, where Mr. Spitler was sitting , in company with Mr. e. F. - Trigg. tel. ' ler of the Exchange Bankat Abingdon ; Mr. C. C o e, an attache of the-hotel, and . Mr. Terry. G r aham .drew a revolver and commenced firing into the crowd, killing Mr. Spiller at the first fire. Mr. Col -is very badly wounded, but will, it is - thought, recover. Messrs. Terry' and Trigg . were Wounded, but not seriously. The murderer, fled immediately after the com -rnissien of _theebloodv deed; and has not since been heard from. The affair -has created the greatest indignation. - Mr. Spitler being an extensive merchant, is well known to the Lattimore merchants. : DEA.TII OP MRS. CtSS , ROME.—A letter dated Rome, March sth, says : "The diplomatic circle here has recently sus tained 'a:fresh loss in one-of the. most amiable of its members, whose death succeeded those of the Marchesa Pralormo, Marchesa Bargagli, and Baronne d'Arnim. Mrs. Mary Cass, born in Ludlum, wife of the Minister of the united States, was yesterday snatched from life and from the affections of her relations by the burst ing of a blood vessel in the head. She was near her accouchetnent. ller virtues, beauty, and amiable qualities will make her memory deeply regretted by-all who knew her." J"The funeral service ofMrs. Benton. which took place in the Second Presbyterian church at St. Louis. a few days ago. was largely attended. The Democrat, of that city, says : “The body, accompanied by a long procession of carriages, was borne to the Bel leccen taine cem etery, where, on a beautiful eminence, on- the •sunset.side of the Father of Rivers,' within the fainity enclosure, the remains were deposited in the cold. cheerless ground. The Maven wind was rude and chill, but Col. Benton - a nd his rel atives _remained-on the .ground until the last shovel of earth was heaped Upon the grave. We observed a row of plain white marble slabs planted at the west of four graves, containing, as we were told, the departed children and — mother of our venerable ...ex-Senator. They stood' immediately to the northward of Mrs. Benton's torah, leaving a space open at hor right for the reception of the earthly remains of one whose presence we fervently hope may yet long be vouchsafed to us." DREADFUL DEATH OF A CHILD itr ME BITE OF A DoG,-4.)n Thursday morning last. Mrs. Rodgers, who resides in the 17th ward, near the Catholic church, sent her son Milton, a small boy, to the bakery, after a loaf of bread. On the way the boy was bitten by a dog. Milton ran home and dressed the wound he bad received. O Friday night about tit() o'clock the mother. was awakened by the boy tearing the bed clothes and scratching his face. .The mother endeavored to pacify him. but the boy groaned the harder and became more and more furious. A light was strwk,--w-hen the mother discovered her boy frothing and foam ing at the mouth.. In these spasms he died about three o'clock. His leg, after death, was found to be black from his hip down, and very much swollen.—Cin. Gazette. • SINraTLAR DKATII.--We learn from the Kit tanning Democrat, that a young girl living with Mrs. Winkett, in Vernon township, Arm strong county, fell through a hay-loft a fely days since. and was found suspended there by the arms, dead. It is supposed that her clothes caught over her, head, and some hay also fall ing upon her, occasioued her death by smooth ering.

A Co:csumprioN HosPrrAr..--In theStateSen ate of New York a bill has been introduced to provide for the incorporation of a consumption hospital, to be located in the city. The trus tees are authorised to hold real estate, in value not exceeding 5200,000, and art required-to re ceive under their charge alt the cases of pulmo nary consumption, or patients snail:lg from diseases of the air passages, which may be as signed to them or their care by the authorities either of counties or towns, and to give them proper medical treatment, and to charge the' expenses thereof to the said towns or counties. Fortztmc MILITARY COMPA NIES. —The ques tion has lately been- submitted to the Govern or of Ohio, as to whether he will withhold the .public arms from independent volunteer corn panics, composedin part or entirely of adopted citizens, and he - etas decided that there is no law which authorises him to inquire into the character of these companies. Massachusetts is, thus far, the only State which has deter mined upon the disbanding of its foreign mill tail- companies. MORMONS NOT ORIGINALLY PO IXGA MISTS- Nil Smith, a brother of Joe, the prophet, writes to the Springfield Journal, that the "system of polygamy, got up by .Young. and other evils which grow out of it, are a libel and slander upon the character of the prophet, whose bones now lie mouldering in a martyr's grave : and were Joseph Smith to come forth from his low ly- bed, and view the condition of thing.; in the Salt Lake country, he would spurn from his presence Brigham Young, and denounce his loathsome and damnable doctrines.
