ATTEMPTED SUlClDE.—Yesterday morning. a most
determined attempt at suicide was made by T. Heady, Esq., a
gentleman residing in Clarendon-square, Somers-town. Mr.
11. has been in a very desponding state for some time past,
owing to losses by speculation in railway shares. Yesterday
morning the servant took him up the hot water for shaving,
and as he did not come down to breakfast with his usual
punctuality, his landlady went up to his bed-room ; en entering
which she found Mr. Heady lying upon the bed, bleeding pro-
fusely from a wound in the throat that he had inflicted with a
razor. Medical assistance was obtained and the wound closed,
arid none of the principal arteries being injured, it is expected
be will recover.
