As Mr. Grosclaudo was knowa to be very accentric, and to live entirely alone, it w39 KUT- mised that he might be currell and unable to call for assistance. The Municipal Superintend ant, Mr. Trotzig, had the matter brought under his notice yesterday forenoon, and at one took the necessary stops to mortain if anything had gone wrong. As Mr. Groselands was a nativo , Switzerland, Mr. Trotzig communicated with Mr. Krien. HI.G.M.

After kuoching without avail for some time they sffooted an entrance by the back door, and find- ing no one in the ground door portion of the honse they proceeded to ezaraino the upstairs apartments. The whole place was in a very dirty, almost sq aslid condition, and in the slop ing room they found the object of their search 92,432.13 lying dose. The sight was calculated to shock the strongest nerves. The body was leaning partly against the wall and partly against washstand, a razor lay close by and quantities of blackened blood were on the door, the body and the washstand, and in a basin over which $17,090,03 the arms of the desaásod were stretched. With tha exception of cost and bacts the deceased was fully clothed, and had ovidently been dead some days, as his nose, yes and por tions of his arms had beet gnawed away by rats.
