Sad Occurrence.

--The Warrenton (Va.) Flag announces the death, in that place, of a lad named Jefferson Magruder, son of Mr. T. J. Magruder. Since Washington has been occupied by the Northern troops, Mr. Magruder's family have been sojourning at the Warren Green Hotel, in Warrenton, and one evening last week this little boy, with his two brothers, wandered some two miles from town in search of cherries, and ascended a tree, from which this one unfortunately fell and died in a few minutes afterwards. His father was absent at the time, looking after his interests in Washington.
