Diaiioi.icai. Mnu?Kn.-Wc were shocked
to hear a report yesterday to the effect
that (loo. li. Miller, toller in the branch of
the I'nion Hank at Jackson, Tenn., had
been killed Thursday night, and tin: bank
robbed of a largo amount of money. It
seems that the deceased slept in a room in
thebaukiiig house, adjoining the vault, and
that a villian, or villians, acquainted with
the affairs of the institution, consummated
their plans for the murder of the teller and
the robborv of the vimlt ?
? - nun;
but too faithfully curried out. Wo. have
but few details of the diabolical transaction,
and know ncthing of the particulars of Mr.
.Miller's death beyond the fact that the instrument
used by the murderers was the
cancelling hammer belonging to the bank,
and the. fatal wound was inllictcd upon the
head of the deceased, who, when found,
was quito dead and weltering in his own
gore. It is remarkable that the diabolical
deed did not become public until about
noon yesterday, wlian the intelligence was
1 at once transmitted wn Miiu ?5i?.

lie left by the lirst tcain for Jackson yesterday,
with 8;">0,00D for the use of his
branch, and it is fortunate that that largo
balance was not in tho vaults of tho b:mk j
when M>o robbery was committed. The '
funds of the Jackson branch were uiiuhu- j
ally low at tho time, and it is therefore to
be inferred that the amount stolen was not'
l^rgO, and th:?t tlic loss will by no moans
embarrass the affairs of the bank. The deceased
was a young gentleman of rare talents,

Dikd of Starvation?A Sad Affair.
| ?The Cleveland IMaindcalcr records the
following as occurring in that city :
A worthy woman named Little died of
starvation on the West Side, on Friday
; night. She leaves four children, the eldest
of whom is a little girl only eight years
old. The woman's husband is in the penitentiary
at Columbus, for passing counter;
feit money. 11 is sentence expires in March
! next. The little girl above mentioned has
been in the habit of calling at a gentleman's
office on this side of the river during the "
winter to beg money to buy bread for her
mother, and brothers and sisters, letter
ly she had said her mother was unwell.?
Believing the little girl's story, the gen- j
tlemnn always gave her something when (
j she called. On Saturdiy morning she t
| called and asked the gentleman if ho >
wouldn't write to her father and tell him
that her mother was dead. 8he had died
the night before, with 110 one in the house
hut her children?with no fire nor light of
an^ kind. All nlonc, in the cold and dark,
in a miserable find crazy old house, friend- 1
less and foodless, the four little children '
had passed the night by the side of their
j dead mother. This is no fancy sketch?
! it is terribly true. The woman's character
was good, so far as we learn.
