He undoubtedly opened it, and as soon as he saw its con- tents, went to his house, took his gun, re- tired to his stable and shot himself through the heart.

 The extent of his frauds is still unknown. It is ascertained that many of those for whom he has been drawing pensions are dead, and some of them died twenty years ago. Others are supposed never to have existed. Ii is conjecyred the amount thus abstracted from the Treasury cannot be less than $40,000, and is probably more.

Pub lie sentiment will not, we trust, after the expiation of his criminal conduct with the sacrifice of his life, visit the sins of Temple upon his unfortunate and innocent chils dren.
