CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE A n Dr.--, many years ago, travelling in the West, becamecertai acquainted on board of a steamboat, with a Mr. Hamilton, who had been a member of the Legislature from his district, and was again a candi date for the same office, After passing their time ess. pleasantly, and bedoming well acquainted with each other in the course of the trip. Hamilton. on landing, invited the doctor CO pass to his house in the village, which was kept by his sister, and tarry with him whilst he remained in that part of the countiy The Dr. remained with them a short time, and then depart. ed on the land-inspecting tour into the interior, which was the object of his visit to the West. On leaving the village on horseback, Hamilton ac companied the Doctor to show him his way, but be coming interested in the conversation of his compan ion, and not being particularly engaged at home, he contineed with him till late in the afternoon, when, among a number of branching roads, they lost their way. Afterjoumeying on until dark, in hope of reaching sortie house -where they might obtain the requisite di reetion, they reached, just at night fall, the banks of a river, on which they found the encampment of three stout laboring wayfarers, with their families and wag ons. They asked permission to spend the night with the patty, and spent a portion of it around the camp fire engaged in conversation on their various plans of emigrationand settlement. Ar daylight preparation s were made for separation and Dr. -- received from one of the three men the direction of the desired road. He told hint there were two roads—called the "sipper" and "lower" roads— but that the lower one was that which he should take. He took the one advised, and started with Hamilton. They went a short distance together. when Hamilton bade him good bye and left him. But before he de parted the Dotter told Hamilton that he knew he was itt embarrassed circumstances, anti wished to aid him if bectield. He offered to give him $3OO. This Ham ilton refused, bet finally accepted it as a loan fora short tineerto.be punctually refunded et the stipulated time. • Hamilton felt grateful for this 'kindness, and to re ciprocate his geod-will for this kindness, to his hum ble means, took a breastpin from Isis, shirt, and giving It to thedoctor said jocularly, thathe hoped La see it some day adorning the bosom of some fair daughter of' the West.. In return for this, the Doctor took a neat pen knife-from his pocket, on which was a silver plate milk his same engraved on it, and, in parting, gave it to Hamilton. Hamilton had gone but a short distance from the spot where he had left the Doctor, when he heard the sharp report of a rifle, and,irnmedintly after a deer bounded out before him and fell dead on the road. Hamilton got off Hid horse, to examine the animal, and doing so, got the cuffs of his shirt sleeves, and kris, pantaloons and waistcoat bloody. He again mounted his horse and reached home. As soon as he did so he changed his clothes, and gave them to his sister to wash, desiring her to do it at once. That day' he went round his village and &fleeted together his various bills, which ke paid. At night, after closing his office, he stopped at the village tavern, -on hit way to sae a lady to whom he was engaged to be married. Several persons came in whilst he was there, and declared that a murdered man had been found on a certain road. Hamilton immediately ex -claimed, 'My God—it must be my friend, the Doctor!' From the tavern he continued on his way to the house of his betrothed, and whilst there, her father came i n with those police officers, who arrested him fur murder. He was taken to prison, and was told the circum 'stance that led to suspecting him. He was told that iewis known he had left the town with the . Doctor, and was . the fast person with him; that he had been in difficulties before his return, but had on that day paid all Ids deb's—that his pistol and his breastpin had been found beside the body of the murdered Doc tor; that a knife, with the Doctor's name on it, was s oun d i n hi s pocket; that he had pretended to lose his ...way it, a country which was well known to him; and, 'finally, that he had tome home with blood stains on his clothes, which 'he had given to his sister, with or .derito wash immediately, On hearing this story recounted, Hamilton threw up hands and exclaimed —that"ke was a fort man." He' was tried, convicted, and sentenced. The day for his execution arrived, . but Hamilton was too ill to mxire the. final a ct i on of the law, and was respited. Before this respite had expired, Hamilton died in airison. . All the facts had, of course, satisfied the public weind that the verdict was just, and that Hamilton was the murderer—but about three years afterwards, one of the three men with whom our travelers had bivou acked en the banks of the liver, was tried and convict ed, is theta( west, of murder. Before his execution, he confessed that he was the person who had slain the Oberon—that he had misled him as to the road, and that he had stolen Hamilton's pistol (with which ho bad comtnittedthe murder, and left it by the Doctor's body,) from his bolster daring the night, and after he Azad heard in the chat around the camp fire that the 'Doctor had money with him, and was engaged is the purchase of land. g g Lemir Finger Nails.—The Chinese are fond of long &Mk' nails.

Westtimatotr, July 3d, 1345. Sir—Since I have been 10-this city I have used some of your Dyspeptic medicine with infinite benefit and satisfaction, and believe it to be a most valuable reme dy. One of my constituents, Dr A. Carden ; of Camp bell county, Tennessee, wrote to me to send him some, which I did, and he has employed it. very successfully in his practice and says it is invaluable. MrJohnson, your agent at this place, thinks you would probably like en_agent in Tennessee. If so, 1 would recom mend Dr A Carden, as a proper person to officiate for the sale of your celebrated medicine. Should you commissio n him he is willing to act for you. You Min send the medicine by water to the care of Robert King & Sons, Knoxville county, Tennessee, or by land to Graham & Houston, Tamen, East Tennessee. I have no doubt but if you had agents in several coun. ties in East Tennessee,a great deal of medicine would be own sol. lam going to tafrike some of it home for m u d se, and diet of my ends, and should like to beer from you whether you would like an agent at Bluntville, Sullivan County, East Tennessee; I can get some of the merchants to act for you as-I live near there.
