Much dis- turbed, she offered the fellow money to leave the neighborhood and had the satisfaction of seeing him set off for town. With the money however the man got drunk, and after lying on the bare ground on the outskirts of the town for several days rose up desperate, it is supposed, and in his frenzy made his way back to the Harrington plantation, where he hanged himself on the tree referred to, and swung there a ghastly object to greet the eyes of the family the following morning. It happened that the old lady rose before the rest of the household,aud again beholding what she took for another delusion, aroused the other inmates. Her son having no faith in the matter, at first refused to go down and look at the tree,but finally did so, and to his horror discovered the corpse. It was cut down at once, but life hud been extinct some hours, and the authorities were noti fied of the occurrence. Her son tried to prevail on Mrs. Harrington not to see the remains, but, feeling that the vision had been sent her for some purpose, she persisted in view- ing them. The hair of the dead man had become much disordered,and re vealed on the brow close to the hair a peculiar triangular shaped scar, on seeing which the old lady fainted, but ou reviving requested her son to search the dead man's pockets. There were found papers confirming the suspicion that the scar had awakened—that he was her eldest son. It seemsthat James Harring- ton, for such was his name, had en tered the federal army on the break- ing out of the civil war against the wishes of his family and that his mother, ina fit of anger, had re- and to determine whether the allowances are in ac- cordance with law.

He was trying to arrest Aikens for living with a white woman. The negroes are greatly excited and held a meeting this afternoon at which they decided to employ couusel to assist the county attorney before the coroner's jury,as they claim the officer was not justified in shooting Aikens. There are conflicting stories about the shooting and the inquest is not end- ed. The officer has not been arrest- ed.

Grand Rapids, Mich., June 7.— |About noon to day the dreadful evidences of a murder and suicide were discovered in a room over O’Brien’s undertaking establishment on Crescent avenue, this city. On the bed was found the corpse of William G. Grey, O'Brien's book- keeper, and on the floor was the body of Miss Dora A. Velzy of Al- lendale. Grey had evidently been shot while asleep.
