SUICIDE OF A MERCHANT.—An inquest was held
last night by Mr. Higgs, the coroner for the Duchy of
Lancaster, at the King's Head, Acre-lane, Clapham, to
inquire into the death of Mr. Samuel Blackener Yenning,
aged 47. It appeared by the evidence that the deceased
was a merchant in the city, and bad a residence in
Atkins-road, Clapham New Park. On Saturday morn-
ing, about eight o'clock, the cook, hearing her mistress
scream, went to the deceased's dressing-room, and found
him sitting on the floor, with a loaded pistol in his left
hand, cocked, and one that had been discharged lying
in a pool of blood by his side. He appeared to breathe
but twice, and then expired. There was a large woend
over the right temple and under the left ear. Dr. Ord.
of Brixton-hill, attended, but could render no assistance.
The deceased had of late been in a very desponding
state, owing to the loss of his son, and exhibited signs of
monomania. Mrs. Venning had left him only a few
minutes before. Verdict, " Temporary insanity."
DESTRUCTION BY FIRE OF BITTON PAPER
MILLS.—BRISTOL, MAY B.—An express messenger
arrived in this city yesterday, from Bitton, Gloucester-
shire, soliciting the assistance of the fire-engines of the
different offices, in consequence of the breaking out of a
fire in the extensive paper mills in that village, known
as Bevans's Mills. The engines were dispatched to the
spot, as were others from the more immediately adjacent
town of Keynsham, but all efforts to arrest the progress
of the fire proved unavailing, which was not extinguished
till the entire building and all the valuable machinery
were reduced to a heap of ruins. There was a large
stock of paper in the store-room, of which a good deal
was got out comparatively uninjured. The premises
and stock were both insured in the Sun and Imperial
