EMIGRANTs TO CALIFoRNIA-The St Louis
lntellgencer of the I'd inst. says: :" A friend from
Independence informs u.s. that from all the infor-
nation received at that point, the emigration to
California this spring will be at least equal to, and
perhaps exceed in amount, that of the last season.
He thinks, however, that it will be chiefly from
Missouri Illinois and Indiana, and that emigrants
firm the Eastern States will most Of them 90 by
sea. He says that in the Western counties OF this
State great numbers preparing to go-many
OF them with their families, and that the emigra-
ton IS likely to be so great seriously to depreciate
the value of lands in that part of the State"

HORRIBLE ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.-One of the
most extraordinary instances of attempting self
destruction that we heard OF, says the Toledo
Ohio Blade, related to us by citizen of Svl-

age IN the employ of DR.. Minor, of Sylvania, hav-
ing taken it into his head to quit, drove off the
Doctors oxen in the night, but was overtaken in
our city, with the oxen the next day He returned
to his friends in Sylvania. After remaining with
them day or two, he left, as they supposed with
the intention OF returning Dr. Minors TO resume
his service Instead OF doing so, he passed over
the line into Michigan, and hired out to farmer.
to do some choppng, took his axe and went to
work. short time afterwards, while on his way
to the chopping, the farmer not hearing the report
OF the axe, sent his sons to look for the boy In
lew minutes they came upon a trace of blood and
soon discovered the boy skulkng among the trees,
striking his forehead violently with the axe. On
discovering the boys in pursuit he drew the axe
several times violently across his throat In few
minutes, however, they overlook him and took the
axe from him. Strange to say, he had struck his
forehead some thirty times with the axe, and sue.

two fingers in width, and also of inllictng severe
injuries upon the throat. The physicians who at
