About one o'clock, Saturday afternoon, Mr. Robert D. Glover, a native of Edgefleld, S.

There was a pucVof blood on each side of bte head, and tils right hand still grasper! firmly, the pistol.jrlt?sYWch he had evidently but a snort ?nf?"jmwious destroyed his own life. The distressed young mau Im? mediately gave the alarm, and in a short time the? friends of the deceased in the neighbor? hood and elsewhere In the city were gathored at the residence. From the character of the wound, the deceased evidently thrust the muz? zle of the pistol into his mouth and fired, while sitting upright ou the door, alter placing him? self in a position lo fall back upon tho chair which he had previously arranged with a view to his desperate purpose. Tho bull passed out at the buck purl ol the head, and made an Inden talion in the ceiling above, fulling back to tho floor, where il was allerward pick? ed up. The back part of thu skull was badly shuttered, tho deed haying been committed with a six-shooter of particularly largo- nore. ?During the past, ainu mer. Mr. Glover haft-"suf? fered greatly, from ill-health, and at the recent election he was the regular I'euiocratlc candi? date for tax collector of Richmond County.

A tew miaules before he fired the iui al shot, having returned to his house, for dluner, he was ia" the" back yard quietly looking alter domestic matters. The act ls at? tributed to pecuniary reverses conflicting'with a spirit too proud and self-reliant to contem? plate a possibility of being reduced to any phase, of dependence, even upon tho assis? tance ot friends. The following Is a copy of a note found lying on the floor beside bim : .To Afy .Sans -Don't have an Inquest held over me. I committed the aot myself.
