~ On lowry morning in June,
thirty tive years ago, the village of Litch.
field in the State Of Connecticut. gave birth
to one of the dirtiest vagabonds that ever
picked pocket or plundersd q client. After
he had obtained his majority-we cannot
say after he came to mans estate, for srch
creatures never arrived at the status Of man
hood-he roved about on the Atlantic sea-
board, remaining in one place till driven to
another, for several years, when the
Almighty sent him to Davenport to curse
this city, as He sent locusts in olden times to
scourge the victims of His wrath. What
the people of Davenport ever did to merit
such an infliction-we cannot possibly con-
ceive, bnt be their sin what it may-the
punishment the fellows presence inflicts on
this city is far more severe than their most
heinous transgressions deserve We shall
not speculate as to what the career OF this
delectsble rascal would have been-had he.
for instance, settled in New York, though
we suspect he would have tnrned out .
Toombs shystsr or panel-thief; but We
know what he is in Davenport . poverty
sticken pettifogger. without character,
merit or honesty. At one time this
fellow was connected with our office
just as Brsyman the post-ofics thief was
encs On attache of the Chicago Democrat !;
but, fortunately for 10, We drove him from
our establishment, and made . mean, men
dacious and unserupulous enemy Of false.
treachorous and dishonest friend. We are
frank TO cay that We had rather have his
sumity than his frisndship-though they
say that the goodwill Of dog il better
than HE ill.will. Since We kicked him ont
Of our Office. he has sought the society si
Judge" Johns. Of the Nnss, man whom
he blaekguarded for years with coarse
nss. falsity and virulsnes Of which he
alone il capable He hss become one Of
the kitchen cabinet. one Of the back stairs
sdltsrs Of the Ness, and earns the privi-
lsge Of inserting now sad then few dirty
paragraphs IN that paper. BY lying about us
in . manner Of which any one but he would
b ashsmsd. The other day this fellow
went out to Hickory Grove 70 pettifog . suit
before Country Justice. and saw copies ol
the Democrat on the table and n the hands
Of number Who were present. Here va
an opportunity Of libslline n which the
rascal sosld not permit to pan unimprovsd.

SUICIDE OF WoMAN.-By some
singular accident. We only received yester
day the following details Of suicide, which
occurred in this vicinity ON Friday, the 9th
inst. At about s o'clock of the evening ol
that day. Mrs Morehead, . widow, aged
about IS years. living at Blue Grass, in thi.
county. was found. by her children, hang
ing in shed adjoining the house. After
the children had retired, their mother went
cut and was gene SO long. that little son
got up and searched for her. He found hel
standing, asleep. as he thought, in the shed
and endeavored to awaken her. He then
called brother, and their loud calls upon
their mother to awaken, aroused . neigh
Dor. He found her hanging by the neck
with her feet touching the floor. DR.. Car
penter was called in immediately, and he
cut her down, but life vas extinct, although
her body was yet warm. She had evident
ly stood in chair, and after fastening the
rope around her neck, tied her hands to-
gether, and jumped of. She was woman
Of irreproachabls character. and We believe
q member of tho Presbyterian church. Hel
husband died about year ago. leaving to
her care six children. A few days before
she took laudanum. and narrowly escaped
death, but il was then supposed she had ta.
ken it accidentally. The cause OF her sui
eide is supposed to have originated in the
following facts. A few weeks previous, 4
man named A. c. Best, brickmaker. twice
attempted to outrage her in her own house
according to her statements. Several day.
afterwards she told . neighbor. and the man
was arrested for assault and battery with At
tempt to commit rape. The assault and
battery was established. and the man fined
but Mrs. NJ. probably from the advice Of
other or thinking he had been punished
enough. did not appear as q prosecuting
witness. and on being sent for, arrived after
the trial was closed. She imagined after
this that cruel suspicious were fastened up.
on her reputation, and that friends had de.
serted her. The effect Of this upon her
mind was doubtless the reason of her sui.
eide We understand from the friend who
gave rs the above facts. that this man Best
has three times previously been guilty Of
attempting to outrage females. one Of them
being sixty years Of age, and that lie waa
compelled to leave Illinois for q similar
crime. If this is so. or the above is true
why do the people Of Blue Grass permit
such wretch to contaminate their commu-
nifty? Either he has been outrageously
slandered, or they are the mildest and most
forbearing set of citizens in the county,

stem for the paying of our fare. but We
a0oHld like to know what offence has been
given the company that should cause them
to discriminate between us aud the other
papers.
But We do net wonder at the article In the
the Gazette. Their toadying procliv-
ities are 20 strong they entirely crush
out their sense Of justice. We might apply
9 very vulgar "ssw" to them, but ws do not
ape the Louisville Journal.
