Tbe shoes were uf fine quality and small eise, about a cumber 5 ; bis bair was quite light io color Tbe clothing was of good quality and apparently almost new. Tbe suit was a dark blue eerge or clay worsted. ? tTbe man evidently committed suicide, for be bad placed two boards on tbe gronnd, witb tbo ende against a log, removed bis shoes, ibicb was placed side by side against tbe log, upon wbicb bis bead was placed, an 1 by tbe side of tbe boards two laudanum bottles and bis pistol were lying.

No papers of any kind or other articles that might serve to idectity the body were found, aod there were no means of discovering who tbe unknown stranger who took hit own life in tbat lonely spot was or where be came from. Magistrate Keiley held an inquest over the remains on Saturday, but ae there wee no evidence except that of the negroes who dis? covered tbe remains, tbe verdict was rr ere y a statement tbat a wbite man, name unknown, came to bis death on a date and in a mancer unknown to the jury.
