NOVEL ARrrHNEfIc.-An Ohio correspondent
becomes sponsor for the following, which, as a
matter of fact, he wishes to put on record:

payment for the loss of his COW.
Certainly said Mr.. Whitaker, what do you
think she is WORTH
.sWell, about ten dollars" said Jones

suicide Mt Lyons, Iowa.

On last Wednesday evening an Irish girl by
the name Of Joanna Sheady, Is years ofase, left
the house of her parents about o'clock and
was not found until the next morning when she
was discovered lying in WE'LL on Wata street,
drowned. The circumstances, as we understand
them, are these: On Tuesday last her brother,
older than herself, died, and was at the time of
the above occurrence, lying in the house. The
family was very much grieved at his loss, and
Joanna seemed to be so deeply grieved that it is
said tears could not come to her relief. She re-
marked to several in the afternoon of Wednes-
day, that she must go with him In view of this
and other testimony, the Coroner and jury pro-
nounced it case of suicide, caused probably by
temporary insanity. The well was about IA feet
deep to the water, and the water about feet
deep.
The public sympathize deeply with the bereav-
ed parents, who are doubly afflicted by having
their son and daughter both snatched from them
within the space of forty-eight hours.-[Observ-
er, 3D.
