PROPOSALS Mysterious MURDER IN HgNRIco.—W: have heretofore noticed the fact of the dis- | ec very of the dead body ofa young woman tn Drinker’s woods, in Henrico eounty,on the Newmarket road, about four miles from Rich- mond. An inquest was held on Saturday af- ternoon, at 3 o'clock, at the house of George D. Pleasants, Esq ear the ot where the body was found. b: competert jury, with Mr Roper as foreman. No witnesses were examined, for, im fact, noone present knew any thing about the murder. lt was proved that the body of the woman was found in the woods by Mr. Drinker anda negro maa, bat no turther facts were elicited sufficient to af. | ford the jury an opportunity to make up their | minds. The inquest adjourned to meet at the same | es on Wednesday afternoon, at 3 o’clock. | | | be body was interred on Saturday near the spot where it was found. evidences of violent outrage upon the person | of the degeased. On the head there was the mark of a pistol shot, but the ball glanced | around, and itis eyident that death was pro- douced by some other mears—probatiy stran- | | | | gulation. When found sbe had in her hands the dead leaves from the ground, which were con yulsively clutched in the agonies of death. The young woman was very neatly attired. Several, looked at the corpse, but thus far uo one has | been able to identify it. Itis conjectured that the ontrage and murder were committed bya | negro, at some distance from the spot where the body was found, as there were no marks of a struggle upon the spot.

Aw UxaRMED MAN ELores witu ANOTHER May's WirE—Mucb gossip was occasioned in the city yesterday by the ramor that an un- married man bad eloped with a married woman. An inquiry revealed the truth of the rumor that the guilty parties had left Puesday night by the Central train, taking with them a child of the woman, ouly eight years old. Toe seduceris named Robert J. Fleming. and the guilty wosnan is the wife of Edward H. Hop- kins. For some months past Fleming and Hopkins have conducted the carpenter and Jjoimer business in partnership, but dissolved the partnership a day or two since. Daring | this partuership Fleming boarded with Hop- | kins. For some time Hopkins nad sus- Peeted that his wite and Fleming were op too intimate terms. but had seen no act Which would criminate them. On Tuesday morning the mother of Hopkins d vered Fieming and Mrs. Hopkins under such cir- cumstances es left no doubt of their guilt. When Hopkins came in she informed him of What sbe bad seen. The guilty parties in the meantime, suspecting that their intimacy had been discovered, fled the house, taking with | them the little cbild, and in the evening left for parts unknown. Hopkins got out a war- rant for their arresc, and ertered a petition for divorce in the Cireuit Court of Richmond. Both of the men are natives. The wife is from ene of the counti ‘Richmond Timee. Wineé Culture ix THE Usitep States — The progress already made in wine growing in the United States shows thatitis d-stined to become one of our most important interests. The earliest attempts at grape cultare were With imported varieties, and failed. Nicholas Longworth. of Cincinnati, and Jobn J. Du- taur, of Vevay, Indians. were the first Ameri- cans who had any great success in cultivating ative vines,and to their industry the business | owes its start. Vineyard culture is now fally established, California taking the lead, and both the Obio Valley and Georgia producing excellent wines. California alone has 5,000,(i:i) acres of land adapted to vineyards, whilst the aggregate surface covered by vineyards in Europe is said not to exceed 12,000,000 acres. Inthe West the annual yield per acre is 200 gallons,in the South 500, and in California seu; whilst in Franee the annual product is said not to exceed an average of 200 gallons per acre. sateen teint Suirs.—itseems from what we hear that everybody in this section, who has a debt due ‘Bim is instituting proceedings to obtain judg- mentupon it.
