Singular Accident.
--A man named John Murray, living in Newark, N. J., on Saturday evening placed the muzzle of a loaded gun barrel, detached from the stock, to his mouth, and while blowing into it, the muzzle came in contact with a lighted candle, discharging the weapon.
Murry's head was blown off, and portions of his skull and brains scattered about the room.
The barrel rebounded, and striking his mother-in-law, ten feel distant, penetrated four inches into her chest.
It is believed she cannot survive.
