That kuch1 pledges w;ere given, has been openly published by the resolutions adopted at several of tlie township meetings, and which as yet Mr, King has not publicly . denied.

The poor creature had been for a number of days suffering with fre quent fits of delirium tremens, during which, as we suppose, lie intimated a purpose of self-, destruction. On Thursday hisKutfering wero intense; anJ on that evening he wandered up. the railroad track on Lis fatal errand, looking, as a gentleman who met him said, the most haggard and wo Iwgone imaginable ; in, a few moments after he cast himself upon tho track the rushing train came on, warning with iU shrill piereing whistle ; tut he heeded it not, moved not, and -in a twinkling his wretched form was crushed, torn, dragged along tho track, a mangled, helpless mass of self sacri ficed humanity.-. The shocking circumstance was soon known in the village, ' and produced a deep sensation, which was rendered more general next day, on the return of his remains to the tool-room of the road, at thi place, where coroner Hard and the jury examined the body. - ' . - ; Starting or, tite ExrEDmoN.
