LOVE, MURDER AND SUICIDE.-1t was
stated by telegraph few days ago, that
a young man named Henry N. Sargent,
deliberately killed young lady, Miss
Servilla Jones, aged II years, and then
shot himself, on the 18th inst, at New
Boston, N. H. The Manchester Mir
ror, which has long account of the
tragedy, says:
About year ago he became enamored
with Servilla, and, as neighbors say, for
a while she was pleased with his atten-
tions, but through outward influences
was induced to treat him coldly. Upon
this subject, that of marrying her, from
that moment he has been insane; it has
been his only, great engrossing idea
He said last summer that if she did not
marry him he would murder her. Last
week be asked the sexton of the town
if he could olga grave for him this
week. The day before this sad event
he told one of his friends that he wanted
to have him attend his funeral on the
next Sabbath. 1t seems that he had
calculated this deliberately.
On the morning of the 18th inst, he
ate hearty breakfast at neighbor's
house, and started for the residence of
his mother, 81 miles distant. He took
the road on which he knew Servilla
travelled In going to school, and he cal
culated to meet her. The school house
is part way down long and steep Hill.
Some hundred rods beyond. it he met
her, and she, said Good morning.
Henry" he made no remark, but took
hold of her right arm, with his left
hand, and with his right instantly drew
q self-cocking, six barreled Aliens re-

"WHo MADE YoU?"-One of the
ladies connected with the Methodist
Five Points Mission" who has under
her charge some thirty little boys, called
them together on the morning of Christ
mas, to perfect them in their answers to
questions she intended to put to them
before the visitors during the afternoon.
After arranging them properly, the first
boy on the right, in answer to the ques-
ton, "who made you?" was to say
Good" The next. "Of what were
you made?" reply, "The dust of the
earth" and so on through the Cate
ehism. The all-important moment hay.
ing arrived the little "shavers" were
told to stand up. The little head boy,
it seems, was missing, but the fact being
unnotieed by the teacher, she proceeded
with the question. "Who made you?"
