Shocking accident.

--A shocking accident occurred at the residence of Judge Samuel M. Moore a few miles from Covington, Ky., a few weeks ago. As we learn from the Louisville Journal, Carry Moore, the youngest son of the Judge, went into the family room with a gun, and sat down on the floor, with the intention of cleaning the weapon.--In a few moments his mother and sisters were startled at the discharge of the gun, and turning round found that the young man was killed. The entire load had entered his head, mangling it in a terrible manner. Deceased was fourteen years of age.
