MELANCHOLY SUICIDE.-On Sunday morning last,
the body of female was discovered floating
in the canal near McKinney's store house, in this
village, by one of the ockenders, Thomas De Witt,
who procured assistance and removed it from the
water. 1t proved to be the body of Elizabeth j..

We have additional particulars connected with
this most melancholy occurrence, from a source we
deem reliable, which may throw some light upon tho
motives which influenced this unfortunate girl to the
terrible act of aelfdestruction was an
