SINGULAR CIRCUMsTANCE.--TwO or three weeks
ago, respectable married woman, residing ia the
eastern end OF this county, gave birth to twin child
rem, which addition increased the little responsible
ties of the household to nine. Some FIVE or six
nights after the event. the husband, who occupied
bed in the same room, was awakened by her. when
she complained bitterly OF her hard lot in having
sscb large household to care for The husband
soothed her well he could and then fell asleep
In about an hour he awoke, and found that his wife
had left her bed. Immediate search was made in
and around the house, but the woman was not to be
found. The alarmed man fearing that, in her weak
condition, she must perish before she could 20 far,
summoned his neighbors to aid in searching for her
The party soon discovered footprints in the snow
and they followed the track to creek where she had
crossed and re-crosssed the stream three times in
water to the depth of three feet. From there they
tracked her along the creek, through fields and
woods, for distance of nearly three miles, and ut
length found her sitting in q fence corner. with
piece of rope and nail in her hand. When inter
iopated as to her motive for leaving her h0me she
declared il was her intention to commit suicide. IL
was then suggested that she laboring under
alteration of mind. which she undoubtedly was but
this she stoutly decied The strange part Of this oc-
currencc is, that the woman, after walking bare
footed, and with nothing on her but thin cotton
