SuiclDE.—On Monday an inquest was held at
the Regent Hotel in tieis town (Cheltenham), before .1. COOKS,
Esq., Coroner, on the body of Jaines Vitruvius, an Italian, who
having been dismissed from the service of a most respectable
family on the Wednesday preceding, had been in a desponding
state of mind until the evening of Saturday last, when he retiree'.
to his bed room at about eight o'clock and cut his throat with a
razor. A servant girl, on going to in range the bed, was terrified
by seeing bins extended on it streaming in gore, and immediattly
called up her master, who found him bathed in blood, which was
even then gushing from bins in profuse quoniities, the wind-pipe
being completely severed, and a razor laying on die bed at his
left side. Surgical aid 14 as immediately procured, and the wound,
desperate and frightful as it w,,s, sew ed up. So determined
however, did he appear on accomplishing the dreadful act of self-
destruction, than in consequence of his repeated attcupts to open
the wound by flinging back his head,it was deemed absolutely ne-
cessary to restrain his movements by fastening down his night
cap by strings, attached to a belt passing under his shoulders. but
he evaded the vigilance of his attendants, and succeeded in tear-
ing out the stitches by which his wound was sown up. He re. ,
tained full possession of his faculties till nine o'clock on Sunday

all broken !" The hemorrhage recommenced, and he scion after
expired. After a patient examhation of evidence the jury re-
turned a verdict of " Insanity." The unfortunate man was
by no means in a state of want or destitution, for the sum•
