Horrible Suicide!

We learn from DIR. Hill, mail agent, tina,
a horrible suicide occurred at the German
masked ball at Terre Haute, yesterday morn.
ing about 4 O'Clock. A German craftsman
employed on the Alton railroad, of excellen,
character anu high reputation as a workman
had some difficulty in a love affair as il as
supposed, and during the progress of ths
ball, remarked to friend that he was going
to kill himself. About 4 O'Clock, he pulled g
pistol out of his pocket, placed the muzzle tc
his mouth, and pulled the trigger. The pis.
tol exploded, and the ball lodged in the bach
part of his head. He was alive when the
cars left, but of course fatally wounded
We did not learn his name.

in the Valley of the Mississippi, whose
fertile soil everywhere is already producing
incredible quantities of staple products to
pass off to the eastern cities on the lines Of
railroads being extended, SO soon as they are
put in operation. By way of illustration
the writer gives, from the recent report of
the Auditor Of the State of Indiana, a state.
ment OF few Of the products of the White
River Valley, between Indis napolis and
Evansville, through which the line of railroad
alluded to is being constructed. The road
is $50 miles in length, and runs upon direct
line through ten counties, not over one. sixth
of whose lands are under cultivation, produc.

being an increase of taxabies Of $3.50, l92,
within two years, besides containing mex.
haustible deposits of marble. iron ore and
camel coal. The railroad being constructed
through it will be the only outlet for it's
immense products. Such is one OF the great
lines of the West, now being constructed.
which falls within the rigid rule laid down in
Wall street, and maintained by the orga n.
Can such works be permitted to anguish or
die for the want of the sustaining aid, that
can so easily and so safely be given by per.

add largely to the value Of the stock OF the
railroads already built East of the mountains
and especially Of those in operation in the

A Base AVpeaI.

The State Sentinel either greatly mis-
tskes the character of the Republican mem
bers of the legislature, or else these gentle
men are fit instruments indeed to be handled
by such tool Of party as "the man who
shook his head" Last Saturdays Sentinel
contains an appeal to those Republican
members who were originally Democrats but
who forsook their party, or rather their party
leaders in their gross Inconsistency left them
to break up the Republican party. so far as
lies in their power, by refusing to compro-
mise with Republicans of Wing origin on
the Senatorial question. That is, to NOM
great majority Of Republican members he
were formerly Wings, yield up their prefer
ence. or prevent an election. The Sentinel
says this has been done in other States, and
should be done here. A more bare.facet
and brszen appeal has never been made to
a set of decent mcn. and if for moment il
can pr. duce any other feelings than disgust
in the breasts of Republicans, no matter
what their former party preferences, they
are recreanls thus far to the trusts rePoset
in them by confiding constituency.
TIE object Of the appeal is plain. 1t II
to produce disse ntions among the Republ
cans, and thus by breaking their harmony
and unity of action, to make Their majority
powerless against an united minority of Oh
Line Democracy. The trick is shallow as /
is contemplate, and should only serve t'
make Republicans more guarded in doing
anything to give their wiley and unscrupu
lous enemies an advantage. These yer!
Republicans now spoken so sweetly to By
the Sentinel, and advised so sffecIionately ant
disinterestedly as to their policy ARE the YER!
men whom the Sentinel and kindred OIL
Line sheets have been for months ant
months s,igniatizne az traitors, ofhce-hunt
ers and political scoundrels. Failing t
whip them back into III Old Line ranks,th
Sentinel is now endeavor,ng to coax then
to turn their hands against their brethren o
the Reform party. And yet there stand tn
Chapmsns, with their names at the head G
"The Republican" aud the nominees for
important office by the Republican party
and thus bound by common decency to de
fend its interests and no. word from ther
in regard to all such disgusting and coniint
al IF ,rts of the opposition to injure the r.
publican party. We hope Republican men
bers will keep their eyes on the Sentinel an
on the Republican. Both papers are prat
ticing labored deception to hoodwink theI
land if the impudence of the one, or III
cunningness CT the other, secure any success
in distracting the Republicans, they will d.
serve the defeat OF all their plans, and tn
ridicule Of betrayed constituency.
