Slenreeke.a maiden lady o( seventy years of ago, who hud previously resided in Baltimore,but had been staying in this place for some months, died suddenly at the Mansion House,under suspicious circumstances. During her visit she was at tended by a 3 onug German physician, Dr. rani Scboeppebv name, who was also n comparative stranger In "this eommnnity. Dr. Bchoeppa was in attendance npon Miss Stonnecke, on tue even ing previous to her death, and on tho following morsing she was discovered by the chamber maid, icing in an Insensible condition, in which Bhe continued' until the afternoon, when she died. One of our town physicians was called In tor con sultation, but Simply shook his head and stared that she was already in articulo mortis, and he could do nothing for her. After the death of Miss Stonnecke, a will, bear ing dale November 17lh,18t>8, was found amongst htr papers, which devised her property to various benevolent and religious associations.
