MELANCHOLY SUIcIDE-A most painful sui
eide has been noticed in the New Orleans
papers of young man, printer, born in
Illinois, only twenty years of age, and of
fine appearance and good address On
Tuesday night, Nov. I'd, in his boarding
house on Poydras street, he was observed un
til a late hour engaged in writing, and it is
believed he went down to the post office and
put his letters in the box, and then came
back, undrcssed, and went to bed, after writ
ing this statement:
"NEw ORLEANS, Nov, 2. ll,PM
&" l die by my own hand, having taken
thirteen grains Of morphine, from the effects
of poverty and want of employment
j. B. MILLER,
aged 30 years, months, and l day."
Being printer, nothing was thought of
his late hours until three o'clock yesterday
afternoon, when the landady discovered him
in dying condition, and Immediately sent
word to Lieutenant Dryden, who procured
the services of u doctor, but it was too late
to effect anything,

THE UNION ASSOCIATION FOR IUPROT-
ING THE BREED OF HORSES.

On the l4th of April, 1871, the Legislature OF New
York passed an "Act for Encouraging the Improve
ment Of the Breed of Horses by watch it was pro-
yided that Henry Lloyd of Queens County, Edward
Pearsall of the City of NewYork and their associates,
might form Company for the purpose Of breeding
anc raising horses and improving their breed and the
act conferred on such company the power of purchas-
rg and holding real estate and the other privileges
usually granted act of Incorporation. Under this
law was formed the scciety now known by the title
set forth at the head OF this article.
The Association announce it as their object to re-
ustate the sports Of the turf in the position of former
years by resoung them from the evil influences that
now surround them. They propose 10 improve the
breed of horses, by what, they say, are the only
means that have ever actively conduced to that re-
sult-tie natural pride q completion.
They set forth in their circular, that il chiefly by
trials of speed when fairly conducted that the spirit
of emulation is aroused among the breeders and agri
cu,turist. and all who in any way dependent on
the services Of the horse, thus indirectly if not de
rectly, benefited by the increased power and capaei
ties of the animal.
By the same oct Of the Legislature, Messrs. Lowell
Purdy Of Richmond County, Anthony L. Beecker of
New.York City, and Ariil b. Raymond of Westchester
Comfy. were appointed Commissioners to select
suitable tract Of land be used for the purposes Of tue
Association. The Commissioners best.rTsi themselves
vigorously and speedily purchased plot Of ground in
the Township Of Jamaica Queens County, Long Island
known heretofore as the Centrevle Course. This Is
race track a mile in length and with the ground for
the REQUISITE buildings makes plot Of 90 acres. The
Association at once proceeded to ncose their purchase
with substantial fence which is nearly completed
and to award the contract for erecting the grand stand
for the accommodation Of the public on race days, an
for building fire clubhouse for the exclusive of tn
members Of the Association. These structures are IA
process of erection and will be finished by the 10th Of
February next.
The clubhouse is 10 be large and handsome build

"NOT QUITE so BAD."-The Belle

Bike, who'll been down the Susquehan-
nah this Spring with raft. Returning
home, he stopped at tavern, where a
crowd was discussing the Kansas ques-
ton. Sam had not slept the previous
night, and was about squaring himself
out for a comfortable snooze, when one
of the loudest, turning to him, said.
"Here sits Lecompton man, I'll bet
the liquor for the room.'
"Donep' says his opponent, who was
anti-Lecompton.
"Now, then, friend" said No. l, in
order to decide this bet, will you be SO

THE SAILOR BOYS SONG.
BY N. W. BINGHAM.

Oh am the boy for the bounding sea,
O'er the waters of ocean III roam,
And care shall not fasten her letters on me,
For wide is the sailor boys home.
When tempests are sleeping, and skies are serene,
And Neptune has gone to his rest,
And rays of bright sunlight are gliding the green
Crested pillows DER oceans broad breast.
Twill gaze with delight on the boundess expansei
And shout in my fullness ofjoy,
As the bright waves around me in e1tacy dance
To the song OF their own sailor boy
And when the sky darksns and far Ger the deep
The winds beat the pulse Of the sea.
Till the wild waves grow frantic, and furiousy leaT
Around our light bark in mad CLEO,
And when through the mist of the gathering night
The foam covered mountains appear,
Like eyes of the ocean, all glarIng and white,
And the landsman shall tremble with fear,
Then the sailor boys voice as he sings on the deck
Will Join with the voice OF the blast;
And though tempest and storm drive his vessel {
wreck,
He will shout as he sinks to the last;
Oh! am the boy for the bonding sea,
Ger the waters focean I'll roam,
And care shall not iasten her letters on me,
For wide is the sailor boys home.

BUNYAN's FLUTE.-The flute with
which John Bunyan beguiled the tedi-
BUSINESS of his captive hours is now in the
possession of Mr.. Howells, tailor, Gains
borough, England. In appearance it
does not look unlike the leg of a stool,
out of which it is said that Bunyan while
in prison manufactured it. When the
turnkey, attracted by the sound of music,
entered his cell to ascertain if possible the
cause of the harmony, the flute was re-
placed in the stool, and by this means
detection was avoided.

SINGULAR DIVORCE CAsE.--A novel
divorce case has this week been tried
before the Supreme Court sitting at Sa-
lem, of which the Observer gives the
following account:
William Little, libelant, Us. Sarah
NJ. Little. This was a libel for a de-
cree of nullity Of a supposed marriage
between the parties. The allegations Of
the libel were that the parties we're mar
ried in October, 1858, and have resided
together but a very short time since
That the wife became furiouSly insane
within three months after the marriage,
and was removed to the hospital. She
returned to her husband in the fall Of
1854, and remained but few days and
since October, 1854, she has not lived
with him. 1t was also alleged that she
had been in the hospital previous to the
marriage, and that, in fact she was insane
at the time of the ceremony. fhis al.
legation was denied by the respondent
and was the great question in the case
The cause was tried before the jury, anC
was probably the first case of the kline
ever tried by a jury in the Common
wealth. Il was closely contested, anc
excited considerable interest. The yer
dict was for the libelant, viz. : that thu
libellee was insane when the ceremony
of the marriage was performed"

anxiously. We must climb a tree, and

horses are gone, we have no alternative.
I think your buffalo robe, well wrapped
around, will protect you from the cold,
as it has done from the wolves and as
for myself, will endeavor to keep warm
by climbing up and down, and stamping
upon the limbs.
But why not kindle a fire? p she
quickly rejoined, her voice suddenly an
mated with a hope that I was obliged to
disappoint.

because we have not time-do you not

above the reach of our enemies, hasti-

Immediately climbed up after her.
We were not there moment to soon
for scarcely had we got ourselves settled
in comparatively comfortable position
when another hungry pack of our enc
mics appeared below us-howling, snarl
ing, ard fghting-their upturned eye;
occasionly glowing fearfully in the dark
: ness.
But we were safe from their reach -

manned there, listening to their discord

at home.

f spite of all my efforts to keep my slug

numbed before morning, that l believe
