Wai Weiia.—An inquest was held here on Tuesday ICth instant, before Mr. John Anderson Brown, the Coroner for this district, on view of the body of the late Archibald Billing, Esq. It appeared by the evidence of one of his workman and of his eldest son, who were working with him in bis garden on the 15th instant, that the deceased gentleman complained during the morning of a headache, and of a sound like bells ringing in his cars; the workman left him at dinner time apparently quite well and on his return he found him almost expiring. By the evidence of his son it appeared that he observed his father suddenly lay hold of the fence, when he told him to call his mother; he was then assisted into the house and laid on the bed, when he.ahnost immediately expired, apparently without the slightest pain. The deceased leaves a widow anil nine young children to mourn their loss.
