SUICIDE OF A PHYSICIAN AT SOUTHSEA.-Dr
Engledue, of Gloucester-house, Southsea, a phy-
81.eian of considerable eminence and having a very exten-
eive practice in that neighbourhood, :committed suicide
Yesterday morning by swallowing a dose of prussic
acid. Dr. Engledue had during the past fortnight been
Confined to his residence with symptoms of derange-
'tient of the liver and other digestive organs, which had
Produced great taciturnity even towards his-family and
his closest friends, and great depression of spirits. Between
-seven and eight o'clock yesterday morning his sister,
Who resided with him, heard him moving about in his own
Chamber, and upon entering the room found that he had just
thrown himself upon his bed, life being then, or soon after-
Wards, extinct. Dr. Engledue was the younger brother of
Captain
J. R. Engledue, superintendent of the Peninsular
aad Oriental Steam Packet Company's ships at South-
Anipton.

In April of 1856 an audacious burglary was
"omitted at the house of Mrs. Humphreys, a widow lady
residing at Stamford-hill, by four men in masks. An en-
trance was effected by digging a hole through the kitchen
1"1,,,..11, when the ruffians proceeded to tie the hands and feet
the old lady and hervervant girl, the only inmates of the
threatening to murder them, if they spoke. Pro-
*l'lY-to-the. amount of £1,006 was then carried of. One
man was convicted and sentenced to death for the crime,
but the others have hitherto chaded detection. " Murder
will out however, and so in the present case, for a man
named Gibson, one of two caught breaking into the pre-
Plises of Mr. King, Sambrook-court, the other day, has been
identified by the servant girl as the burglar who tied her
tet t(wethmr. She is enabled to do so from the accident of
mask
