THE LATE BARON DE BRUCK.

The examination Of the body of the baron resulted
in the =following opinion gives by Dr. Rokitansky and
Dr. Cessner

"1. That as Baron Bruck lost a great quantity of
blood from. the wounds which hi inflicted- onhimself, it
must be, concluded .:.be died loss of blood, unless,
indeed, an analytical examination of the contents of the
stomach' should Show that- a very active poison con-
tributed:to, his desth, The:ebronie. *erous effusion
in the skull, the relaxation of the substance of the heart,
aud the sebaceous (tallowy) state of the liver justify the
conclusion that Baron Bruck,, being in a. state of great
distress.of mind and of despondeney, committed suicide.
" The following information, which is from privite
Sources, will explain hew.it,bappezied that a part of the
truth was so long kept from the knowledge of the autho-
ritiei. Baron Bruck's valet; who was awakened between
six and seven in the morning of. Monday last by the ring-
ing of his master's bell, immediately obeyed the sum-
mons, and found the unfortunate man bathed in his blood,
and almost insensible. The servant at once called the
minister's two tons, and they sent him for the physicians
Breuning and Wering, who found the patient much
exhausted from loss of blood, but not in a positively
hopeless state. The - family being exceedingly desirous
to keep what had occurred. from the knowledge of the
world, entreated the medical Men to remain silent, and
they, as it appears; consented to do so, -- In the course
of the day, however,.they became alarmed, and insistid
on some of their more renowned Colleagues being called
in. The family would fain have persuaded them to wait
for a time. but they were not to be moved, and it wit
settled that a consultatfon should be held at calf--past sin
in the afternocat. Before that hour arrived Baron )3rueli
had ceased to be. The presumption is, that the ex-minister
took some vegetable poison, morphine or strychnine, dur-
ing the night, and that he inflicted the wound on hisneck
and wrists towards morning, in order to bring on,death
more speedily. In what way and to what extent Baron
Bruck was implicated in the Eynatten-Revoltella affair
we know not,.but he would probably have been arrested
had he not killed himself. On Wednesday, the 18th,
he refused to be examined by M. Hitzinger, the judge,
on the plea that he, as minister, was responsible to the
Emperor alone, but on Friday he consented to reply to
the questions which were put to him. After his examina-
tion on the last mentioned day, M. Hitzinger and M.
Beller, the general prosecutor, had an interview with
Count Goluchowski, the Minister of the Interior, and
Count Nadosdy, the Minister of Justice, and those gen-
tlemen subsequently declared to the Emperor that the
ends of justice required the temporal dismissal of
Baron Bruck from office. 'A great assembled on
the 20th to see the remains Of the vx-minister removed
from -the church to the cemetery, but very few of hia
so-called friends were present: in the church was the
Turkish Atabassador,_but, no other member of the diplo-
matic corps. . None of the ministers attended the
funeral, and We erhpioyes in the different gaVernMent
offices received..-orders.not to. appear at it in uniform.
At three o'clock, the time at which the ceremony began,
it rained very heavily, and consequently but few persons
drove out to the place of burial. A considerable crowd
had, however, assembled thereibefore the cortege arrived.
