Mr. Nehemiah Easly, of Walton coun tv, committed suicide at Smith's mills in said county on last Saturday by shoot ing himself. lie was near thirty years old, clever and promisiifg, till the demon of strong drink took possession of him. We have been unable to gel the partic ulars of the sr.d tragedy. Though we understand he had been dissipating for several days previous to his death and had been on a spree with Joe Tom Liv sy, that killed himself the night before, m Atlanta. VV e gather about these facts in relation to the morutul affair. He was at tbe Mills drinking and threate ning to kill himself. He went off about 60 yards and pulled off his shoes and stockings, and deliberately took a dou ble barrell shot gun that he had with him, put it to his right temple; pulled the trigger with his toes fired and put an end to his unhappy exhistencc. “Ills soul lias taken its earlldess flight.
