SUICIDE OF YOUNG WIFE-The New Orleans
Dd records the suicide of beautiful and ntercstin9
young wife in that city The Of the unfortunate
woman was Mariana Lowe; she about sixteen years
OF age. About year since she married man named
Lowe They lived unhappily together and she has had
reason for believing that her husband had ceased either
to love her to remember and respect the VOWS he had
made in marriage and had transferred his affections to
another woman, who resided In the immediate neghbor
hood. Day before yesterday, the young wife cher hus
band having been absent from her for several days
paired TO the house of this and inquired II her
husband was not there. She answered BY thu wo-
man, don't know anything about your husband, but
there is husband, pointing TO gentleman seated In
the ROOM In whom the young wife recognized her tuant
lord She uttered not word Of complaint but return
ing to her home despatched the servant to drug store
In the vicinity for ounce Of laudAnum She wrote
long and extremely pathetic letter. and then taking au-
dsnu laid herself down her unhonored bridal couch
and died. Yesterday morning her mother visited the
house very early and found her daughter dead. She
stated that having nothing to live for deserted
by him loved and robbed Of all hopes of happiness IN
this world she preferred death TO the miserable exist
ence which lay open before her. and she calmly
liberatey destroyed her life by taking laudanum.
She would not upbraid her husband; she had and
still dearly loved hm-forgave him all the wrongs she
had suffered At his hands, through his cruel neglect and
deserion. She hoped, too that God would forgive him
she did-and that he might live long and happily"
The husband in while the inquest being held
and appeared good deal affected and expressed sorrow
for the loss of his youthful and beautiful wife, he how
ever denied the charges Of n6dety and neglect made
against him by the letter Of his wife, a. ws a. By TIA
testimony Of several Witnesses,

at last he recovered, and says he, "Sam NUNS the
word but ] must tell you how come it over
these fellows from the other end occasionally. One
of the members of the House called on me a few
days since, and got him to talk about Nebraska.
Says he What is your real opinion of that bill, Mr..
Presidentr Well, SIR said /, the bill Of Mr..
Douglas, as originally introduced, regard as q
very proper bill; in fact bill that we could all
support. The amendments, or at least portion Of
them, are extremely sagacions and wise and must
confess, and say 1t with great frankness that al
though there are many and varied opinions as to
the proper course, yet agree with some, and in
d.nce. If the bill should pass and become law,
with or without some of the amendments nv own
opinion is that 1t will be satisfactory, What do
you think the member said, Sam"
Eyes, what do you think" said Forney.
Here the President actually bent over and laughed
until thought he would choke.
what did he sayT asked.
"He stared at me like o stuck pig and finally he
shook me BY the hand and said he felt gratifed and
proud to be honored by my confidence and opinion.
oh Sam, II takes me TO manage business. Let me
get one of those fellows alone, and can wind him
round my finger. Yes, Sam, that is the course
shall pursue, and the result will be that while there
may be different parties In the country yet they
will unite and agree in one thing and il Is that am
not tied up to any particular man or opinion, and
shall be nominated and elected by acclamation.
You will see," said the President.
