We learn from the adjoining borough of Roxbury, that last evening, about 8 o'clock, a young man, a stranger from Maine, called at the residence of Dr. A. J. Cummings, complaining of being unwell. Dr. C., being absent, Mrs. Cummings invited him into the parlor. Soon after taking a seat, he complained of a pain in his side.

Mrs. Cummings sprang forward to protect her child, and was herself very badly cut in the hands.

Bartley, Esq., late member of the Assembly from Roxbury, went to Stanhope on Saturday last on business, and was examining the operation of a circular saw, intending to put one up at his works at the lower part of Flanders.

He was taken to a Hotel, and a physician being immediately called, restoratives were adminstered, and on partially recovering, he expressed a desire to be taken home, which was acceded to. Being in such excruciating pain he could be taken no further than the residence of his father-in-law, Capt. Caskey, where he gradually sunk, and expired about 7 o'clock on Sabbath evening.... He leaves an affectionate wife and six children to mourn their irreparable loss and his death has caused a vacuum, both in the church and in the society in which he lived, not readily filled.
