THE SUICIDE At DAvEEPoKr.-Mr. Camp
bell, the banker, who shot himself recently,
In Davenport, was the father Of the Mir.
Campbell, formerly Of this city, and Of the
firm Of Parmelee & Campbell, jewelers..
The suicide, as we are informed by cisi-
zsn Of Davenport, was the result Of spiritu-
alism--so believed In that city. The de-
ceased, shortly before bis death, not only
picked out bis grave, but had asuis of clothes
made to veav In the other scorid. Thess

be Was buried in them. His spiritual bre.h-

cease, and he expresses himself satisfied with
the change. The impression in Davenport
IL said 10 be, thot although the deceased
might have been Influenced by tbs fact OF
having security debts to pay, yet the main
idea was that he could get along more com
fortably by stepping over into the other

present.
Mr.. Noble, on behalf OF the lady who
made the gag, presented it to the Club in IN
eloquent speech.
Col. Perry, ~ President Of the Club, un-
dertook to reply, but became embarrassed,
and, to use the expression Of Judge Rankin,
"his heart Was too full for utterAnce." The
audience, apprssiating the compliment (for
OF course be would not have bsen smbar-
rassed BY the presence OF people for whose

which the audience received with alternate
hearty laughter and applause. The conclusion
we came to 10, that Rankin sains dead yet lie

The President, who by this time had re-
covered bis composare, followed with some
remarks, tessifying the gratitude Of himself
and the Ciab for the noble present they bad
Just received. In these remarks the Prssi-
dent acquitted himself very handsomely; after
which Mr.. McOrary Was called upon. He re-
marked on the fact that the Democr acts were

Foreign News.

N- By the arrival of the steamship
Europa at Boston, on the oath of Feb
ruary, We have several days later news
from Europe. A battle has been fought
between the Spaniards and Moors. at
Tetuan, the Spaniards proving victorious.
Tetuan was taken, with all the artillery,
camels, and other equipments of the
Moorish army. The Moors fought with
desperation, closing with the Spaniards
in hand to hand battle, but were final
ly compelled to flee. In cavalry
charge by the Spaniards four squads
found their return in tercepted by body
Of 1000 Moors, and had to cut their way
through them. Gen. PREM, with six
bauslions of Spanish troops, stormed a
height commanding the field, but had to
charge four times with the bayonet be-
fore he could take the position. I'm
mense popular rejoicings, in consequence
of the victory, took place at Madrid.
Affairs in Italy grow worse. Large
numbers of persons are arrested every
day, and sent to prison in chains.

man whom the Southern students tried
to mob, not long since, in Philadelphia,
while lecturing there. He has, of course,
become obnoxious to the South, and the

him from their employ. Every man il

deal Of respect for the Germans-calls
the great Wisconsin orator Mynheer
ScHURz," and says that Ca large part of
his countrymen who act with him polite
ally, are open and fierce denunciators of
the Bible and all its teachings" We
have yet to find the man who fiercely de-
nounces all the teachings of the Bible,
and we know this is a gross libel upon
the German Republicans of the country.
Does the editor of the Civilian mean to
be understood that these Germans go in
to the Republican ranks, because Repub-
licans are more infidel than Democrats
Does he mean to assume that the Christ
ianity of the country is in the Democrat
ic party Does he mean to intimate that
lnhdel Germany is greater Halter of hu-
man slavery than Orthodox Germany
and that the same is true of each class
of other nationalities ? Would he have
US to understand that this matter is g
question of religion or of creed Il
not, why does he bring the theological
opinions of the Germans into the contro.
versy. Is he so hard run for political
capital that he must appeal to religious
bigotry? We pity the cause and the men
who are forced to such shifts.
