FEEBLE ATTEMPT AT acknowledgements
morning, q well known yagrant, named John
Smith, was arrested for drunkenness, and
placed in a cell at the Fourth Ward station,
when he attempted to commit suicide by cutting
his throat with a razor. The wound made
was, however, only skin deep, John either
losing courage, or the razor being too dull to
sever the jueular. DR.. HELEN dressed the
wound, and the prisoner was retained until
sober, when he was released
