PITTSBURGH, Pa., August 14. - The body of Hugh McVay was 
found this morning in the Allegheny river, this city, with 
several ugly gashes on the head.  McVay was last seen alive 
at 9 o'clock last night.  It is supposed he was robbed and 
murdered, as he was known to have had a considerable amount 
of money, and when found to-day the money was all gone.
