Lia7ities of Stockholders.—The
prin
eipies of individual liability, says the N.
Y. Evening Post, hes been recognised in
the Legislature of Massachusetts. In the
Senate, a motion was made to amend a
bill of incorporation, by adding a section
-making the stockholders individualy liable
for the debts of the corporation. It was
opposed by the Whigs, and adopted by a
-vote of twenyt-three to nine. The same
principle came under consideration in the
United States Senate, when the bill to re
charter the District Banks was before that
body ; An amendmen, was proposed,
mthich put the stockholders on the same
41 rboling as the partners of unchartered co--
parnerships. All the democrats, and Mr.
Henderson a whig, voted for it. All the
other whig members opposed it. There
is no doubt `6l the correctness of this prin
ciple in its fullest and broadest sense. In
deed the time has passed to raise this in
quiry. It la the progress of the principle
which we are gratified to notice. Sever
al State Legislatures have already riot only
expressed their opinion decidedly for
but there is beginning t 9 prevail in the
community a strong and deep feeling in la
ver of its adoption. This feeling is in ad•
vance of the public expression that lies
been made. It is a duty of the demccrat
ic party to di-yelope and establish this
principle in its full strength

_i'eateit.--;:The N. York Aurora
gives an account of a melancholy occur
rence that occurred on Friday at the Brook
lyn Navy Yard. A laboring man, employ
ed in the yard, by the na.ne of Dougherty,
had been notified by his landlord that he
would be turued out of his house, unless
his rent was immediately paid. The wife
of Dougherty was confined about 2 weeks
since, and had been lying ever since in a
state of stupor, speaking to one, and man—
ifesting no sign of life save breathing.—
The expenses attending this domestic ca
lamity had exhausted the man's means,
nd he saw no way of providing a shelter
for his sick wife and helpless children
in a moment of plirenzy, he seized a pis
tol, and rushing out, sought his landlord
and shot him, although it is believed that
the wcund is not mortal. Dougherty then
returned to his house, and catering his
wife,s 'm, took a razor from the drawer
and cut his own throat. His wife sprang
from the bed and held the wound together,
calling for help. In a few minutes sever•
al pers )O5 rushed in—the surgeon was cal
led, who sewed up the wound, and the
wife was conveyed back to bed. The
scene was a heart -rendin; one—the woun
ded man, faint from loss of blood, and
frothing at the m.loth, Ivry welteriug in a
large pool of blood upon the flo - i, while
the mother, again relapsed into idiotcy,
was surrounded by her children moaning
and screaming most piteously.
Dougherty has been taken to the hospi

to recover; and
the wants of his family have been provided
for.
