NovEL REASON roR COMMITTING SU1e1DE.-A
Paris correspondent Of the Cincinnati CONNER
cial relates story, which, whether true or not
is characteristic of Partisan life. The substance
is as follows: "a s
Madam C., wife Of negocian Of the quarter
of the Douane, was remarked for the grace of
her person and the exquisite taste of her toilet.
She loved particularly to expose, with coquetry,
her hair, of which, the opulence and tha beauty
drew upon her thousand compliments. I'm
fortunately, an attack of brain-fever, from which
she recovered with difficulty, completely denu-
ded her head of its covering, and, shocked at
the loss, she committed suicide, leaving behind
her the following touching note to her husband.
!" My hair has fallen; that ruins me. It is the
commencement of the edisenchantment. 1t seems
to me that . veil has falle1p from my eyes.

tediousness. ! feel that cannot support it.

DISTRESSING OecURENcE-A letter to the
Savannah News dated Chocochattee, Florida,

|
Savannah News, dated Chocochattee, Florida,
Julyl, says: %
Il A most distressing occurrence transpired few
days since, in the neighborhood of Old Tampa.
A Mr. Tillis was in this neighborhood, making
up drove Of beef-cattle, some fifty or sixty
miles from home. 1t appears that in his alb
sence, his daughter girl Of about twelve years
| old, was sent alone to the neighbor's house, to
| stay with the neghbor's wife q few days, while
| the husband would be absent ON some business
The distance was perhaps two or three miles
| with plain trail, and no danger was apprehen-
ded. Five days afterwards, when the girl was
perhaps expected to return home, the alarming
and most distressing intelligence came to the
home of the unfortunate girl, that she had not
been seen at the neighbours house at ALL She
had become lost, or perhaps had been destroyed
by wild beasts. The affective intelligence reach
ed the father on the eighth day. At the last
accounts, upwards of forty men were in search
of the lost one, and it was said that some signs,
where the poor famished girl had plucked the
buds of the palmetto, to subsist upon, had been
discovered God grant that she may be found
in time to save her.
THE STYLE BoMBAsTIc.-Al late number of the
Cherokee (Texas) Sentinel says the New Orleans
Picayune, contains the following card of thanks
from DOCTOR fourishing in that neighborhood,
to the citizens of Rusk for their assistance when
his house caught fire, the Doctor himself being
badly burned:
To the high-souled citizens of Rusk and 9th
ers, who by their noble, prompt and efficient
efforts rescued my residence from the remerse-
less flames on last Saturday morning, l fnd
language too tame to express my gratitude. But,
gentlemen, while writhe beneath the scathings
Of the angry elensent, which call up all my pa
tience and philosophy to endure. can assure
you that the high degree of dsinterested, generous
and genuine friendship developed towards me in
the storm-fash of that ordeal constitutes one of
the most soothiag solaces of my burning bosom.
And while life's warm spirit beats within my
breast, or reason holds her sacred sway, shall
ever live in cherished brilliancy upon the hearth
stone of my heart the preciousness of your
memory-and in eternity, when life's fitful dream
is over, shall hpe despite the ruins Of the tomb.
Theitalics are the Doctors own. We hope
he felt better afterwards.
