From the Norristown HERALD:
We are gratified to learn that a stately and handsome monument has, at last, been erected over the grave of the revolutionary patriot, Gen. ARTHUR ST. CLAIR, by his masonic brethren of Greensburg, Pa., in the Presbyterian graveyard in that place. For years this spot, where repose the ashes of this brave but unfortunate general has been marked by nothing, save the thorns and thistles that have profusely grown over it. A more distinguished mark was due from his country. The monument is of an oblisk form and stands on a base of six feet square, rising 18 to 20 feet. The whole is surmounted by a handsome urn and bears the following inscription
(on the south side)
THE
EARTHLY REMAINS OF
MAJOR GENERAL
ARTHUR ST. CLAIR
ARE DEPOSITED
BENEATH THIS HUMBLE MONUMENT
WHICH IS ERECTED
TO SUPPLY THE PLACE OF A NOBLE ONE
DUE FROM HIS COUNTRY.
HE DIED AUGUST 31, 1818.(on the north side)

JOHN CARTER and MARY BRADLEE SUICIDE
From the Boston papers of Tuesday.
MOST MELANCHOLY. – DOUBLE SUICIDE. –Yesterday morning the bodies of Mr. John Carter and Miss Mary Bradlee were found suspended in the first chamber of her father's house (Mr. Samuel Braklee's (sic)) store on Washington street. They were hanging each in a handkerchief, tied to the same rope, and fastened to the hook of a scale beam. – They had mounted on two chairs, and it appears that Miss B. being shorter than Mr. Carter, they placed a box on her chair to elevate her to his height. It would seem that they had embraced each other, and then pushed away the support, as they were found hanging in close contact, face to face.
Mr. Carter served his apprenticeship with Mr. Bradlee, and left him about three years since for New Orleans, where he entered into business. Mr. Bradlee wrote to him, some time last summer, requesting him to return and enter his store as an assistant in his business, offering him favorable terms. Mr. Carter returned, took his place and renewed a former intimacy with the daughter, to whom he was generally admitted to be betrothed, and permitted to visit and accompany her accordingly. Mr. Bradlee desired to retire from business. Mr. Carter entered into an unsuccessful negotiation to purchase the "stock and stand," with a view to immediate marriage. Not being able to accomplish his wishes, he resolved to return to New Orleans and renew his business there. Miss Bradlee was anxious to accompany him, but her parents refused their consent. The lovers were rendered mutually unhappy and in an hour of madness resolved to terminate their existence. The result we have told. They left Mr. Bradlee's house yesterday afternoon, under pretence of going to Trinity church. – Their parents worship at Mr. Pierpoint's. No alarm was felt for the absence of Miss Bradlee, as she was in the habit of accompanying Mr. Carter to his father's house, had often remained there over night with his sister. There are duplicate keys to the store, one of which Mr. Carter used.
When the lad, whose duty it was to open the store, went there this morning he found that by inserting his own key, he had knocked out the other which was on the inside. On entering the store he found Mr. Carter's cloak on the counter, and thought all was not right, but did not go into the chamber where the bodies were found, until some time after. Mr. Carter left two letters, one directed to his father, the other to Mr. Bradlee; Miss Bradlee left one directed to her father, and all three were enclosed in one package.
Mr. Bradlee is truly a bereaved and heart-broken man. But a short time since, his son and partner died of consumption; and last summer he lost another child by the parting of a wheel tire, as she was looking out of a carriage window in which they were returning from the country.
A coroner's jury was immediately summoned & an inquest held upon the bodies of the deceased. – Their verdict was that they came to their death by hanging themselves by the neck, by mutual agreement. We learn from one of our curriers that about one o'clock yesterday morning, he heard as he was passing the store of Mr. Bradlee, the sound of voices within, and saw a light in the second story of the store.

CHOLERA AT LEXINGTON, KY: --- an extra from the "Spirit of Washington" at Lexington, Ky dated on Friday, 7th inst., 10 o'clock, P. M. furnishes the following additional list of deaths from cholera, with accompanying remarks.

1. Mrs. Bunnell went to the country on the 5th, died on the 6th.
2. Mrs. J. G. Norwood, (not mentioned by us before,) confined a week ago, and though doing well, the first stages of the epidemic carried her off yesterday morning.
