PORTSMOUTH. —A teful Suicide. —The inhabitants
living in the High-street, were startled by the ex-
plosion of firearms at two o'clock on Saturday after-
noon.--It was soon ascertained that an unfortunate
man who had led a very intemperate life, and who
had formerly been in the service of Captain Eveleigh,
one of the largest brewers at Portsmouth, had been
lately discharged. He called in an intoxicated state
on Saturday at the private residence of Captain
Eveleigh, High-street, and requested to be taken on
again. His state was quite sufficient to induce Cap-
tain Eveleigh to desire him to be gone. The man
got outside the door, put a pistol into his mouth, and
literally blew his head into shreds. Death was
instantaneous. The wretched man had acted with
great indecency towards the female servants belong-
ing to Captain Eveleigh, and of so gross a nature as
to
,preclude forgiveness.
SOUTHAMPTON CUBTOMS EBTABLIEHMENT.—An
order has been received at this establiahment from the Board in Loudon, based upon the report mode
to them of the evidence taken by Mr. H. Brown,
the Surveyor-General, during his recent investigation.
The Commissioners have ordered the collector
to make payment of the amount of light dues
embezzled by the young man Foot, lately employed
in the Custom-house at Southampton, and at the
same time strongly censured that officer and others
under him for laxity of supervision of the accounts
in question. The order also animadverts severely,
we understand, on the want of cordiality and co.oper-
ation which unhappily prevails between the head
and the officials of the department, and enjoins the
respctive parties, for the sake of public business, t°
come to a better understanding with each other, or
steps will be taken to effect a separation.
