The name of the individual who was shot a few days since upon the line of the Washington Aqueduct, was Thomas Gretty. After he was shot, the clerk of Mr. Allen brought the body to our city, and had prepared, at the establishment ot J. F. Burch, a neat coffin, into which the body was placed, and sent on to Philadelphia, where he formerly resided, accompanied by bis wife and one child. The evidence before the inquest in view of the body was to the effect that Gretty had been discharged from the employment of Messrs Allen and Carr; after which he went into the office of Mr. Allen for some pur ; a quar- rel ensued, Gretty rushed upon Allen, who seized a loaded pistol lying near by, with which to de- fend himself; Gretty seized him, and in the scuf- fle the pistol was either tired or went off acci- dentally; killing Gretty, as heretofore stated After hearing the evidence the jury of inquest returned a verdict of accidental shooting. Mr. Allen, who immediately surrendered himself the officers of the taw, is aggin on the work, at- tending to his business. There are two rumors afloat in our city this morntng—one that Mr. Al- den was released on bail, and the other that he ‘was tried ang acquitted We incline to the be- lief from all we can gather, that the latter is the true state of the case. Quite a disreputable row occurred last night about 10% o’clock, on First street, among a cel of Washington hackmen (colored) and ot ers, confined chiefly to the former, who wi waiting in attendance sg some of the guests at the wedding party at Mr. Hunter’s. The fight- ing, which was on the dog order, was carried on until persons living in the neighborhood had to —— and separate them. Where were the watch?
