Bank Robbery at Knoxville, I'll.

Press and Tribune, of lst instant, at
Knoxville, says:
The banking Office of Messrs. Smith q
Hale, of this place, was robbed last night
of between $4,000 and S., 5,0OO-$7OO in
gold. and the remainder in currency and
checks. The rogues gained admission
by cutting a pannel out of the door, after
which they destroyed the lock OF the safe,
apparently by means OF a hammer and
chisel. The safe is one of Lesie's man
ufaeture OF chilled iron, with the ap-
proved combination lock. The work was
very neatly done, and shows that the op-
orators were adopts in the business. No
clue has been obtained as to the perpe-
traitors.

list of the suicides which have been re-
corded in the papers OF the United States
during the last six weeks. The number
is fiftY-three in which life was actually
taken. and twenty more unsuccessful at
temrts. Domestic trouble was the cause
in a msjority of the cases, and straitened
circumstances and disappointments iu
in business led to what coroner's juries
call the ''rash act'' in others.
