 I1other Murder.-A fortnight since, says inc Richmond Whig,a Mi, Reed arrived in thaG city from Scotland. On the night of his ar rival. he was seen at MT. AinswOrth's, who keeps public house at Rockets, in the act tt is said, of treating two sailors, who had rem dered him some service. From that tune Mr. Reed was missing, nor could a1y clue be discovered by which to account far his mys- terious disappearance, notwithstanding vig0r- ous steps were taken by his brother, in the course of which AinswOrth was apprehended. but discharged from some inlOrmaIity in the warrant. few days after. the dead body of Reed was found suspended to stopping tree, hanging by two pocket iandkerch'eis' the one tied round the body of the tree, the second around his neck. Appearances are said to indicate that the hOdy had been pia' ced in the position in which it was found. slnce death. There were no buZzards around U. as would have been the case had 1t remained so long where it was found, and there was. little rigidity in the joints, giving ground to the suspicion that he had heen drOwDed.-

 His age was about forty five or fifty.

 The jury who examined the body, return ed verdict of murder. The jury were sat- isied that the deceased was suspended to the tree after he had been murdered. and, from the appearance of the body. that he could not have been remaining in that situation since the day he was missing.

No evidences of the murder having been committed there, were found; but, according to repOrt. negro woman said that if they had come two days sooner, the body of Reed would have been found in the place.

 Somefking Originai.-On the 4th ult., a public dinner was given te Governor Pope, of Arkansas, at the town of Washington in that territory. He made speech with the fol- lowing singular conclusion

 At the muster of the day. and in the gem eraIl aspect of the people in this quarter, the Governor said he had been reminded of old Keutucky-of open generous Kentuckians- but he had discovered, in this country, tO his grief and modification, larger proportion of single men and bachelors, than he had ever seen elsewhere, and greater aversion or in- difference to mafrimony. This seems to me (contiaued the GOveFDOEl an evil of serious magnitude, and to demand Te(oTm. Accord ing to the best estimate he had been able to make, there had been born iH Arkansas, with in the last twelve months, from 1000 to 1900 children, and if the single men and bachelors would marry and do their duty to God and their country, this territory would soon be- come a state without the aid of strangers. In a country where the means of subsistence are so easily procured. there is no apology for re- mainiDg single. Many gentlemen are reluc- tant tO encounter the trouble and expenses of a wife and family, but man who will not hazard much to make himself and fine girl happy, can hardly be relied on to meet the tolls and peril of war, when his country is in danger. Permit me to tell you. gentlemen, that the ladies are ardent in their attachments, and grateful for faithful return; and if husband wit only prefer the company ofhis wife to the grog shop, gaming table. or other places of idle amusement, and conv ince her, that she is. of all things, nearest his heart. she will work her fingers to the quick to sustain him, if he should he even little lazy or worthless. Wo- man is the best gift of Heaven to man, and he that does not accept it hardly deserves seat in Heaven. have (continued the GOvernOr) passed two days in this town. and been rarely cheerad by the appearance Of lady. It seems to be town of bachelors. On Saturday, he supposed the ladies were too much occupied with their domestic concerns, to be visible {; but hoped that on Sunday. he would see in this respectable. wealthy and populOus coun- ty, a numerous assemblage of both sexes at Church, in the town, or near it but, to his surprise. Ne was informed on Sunday morn ing, that there was no preaching in the town or nelghborhoOd, and that the preachers rare- y come to Washington, because there were 30 few ladies in the place. The Governor said that the idea was novel to him, but on reflection, he did not censure the preachers for how can they expect the glad tidings of the Gospel will penetrate the heart of sinners who are insensible to the charms of woman l? lfthere are (continued the Governor} hut few ladies in this town, there are number of as intelligent and agreeable gentlemen as are any where to be met with, and may be permit ted to hope for a speedy reformation.

 Tho Governor begged. in conclusion, to of- fer the following sentiment, which was re- ceived with cheering applause:
