Melancholy Suicide of Beautiful Woman

her death last week by suicide, at Mon

The Fate of a Fallen Woman.

One of the saddest cases of suicide we
have ever been called upon to record was
committed on Monday last, by young
lady of this city, under circumstances OF
the most distressing character IL ap-
pears there was picnic at Delta Grove,
on the banks OF the Rancocas creek, a
short distance above Delanco-a place
that has recently become the resort for
rowdies, blacklegs and courtezans.
Among those present was Miss v,
residing in the northeastern section OF
the city, whose attractive conntenance,
genteel dress, and generally proposes
sing appearance, indicated that she was
not only stranger to the reckless scenes
of conviviality and dissipation which are
constantly occurring at the place, but
that she had been the associate OF the
educated and refined. And such had
been the case. Miss v, at a late
hour in the afternoon, in company with
another lady and gentleman, accepted
an invitation to take short boat trip on
the Rancocas. After proceeding for
some distance, and INDUCING in many
pleasa Mt Jokes, she arose and said tc her
companion that she had lived long
enough, and at once plunged into the
creek, never to be seen alive again. Her
remains we're found floating near Bridge
boro on the following day, and were taken
to that village As she was unknown
the coroner took charge of the body, and
had it inferred in the poor ground ad-
Joining the Methodist church Of that
place A day or two afterwards, how,
ever her father, who is gentleman of
considerable wealth and influence, had
the body disinterred, and recognized 1t
as his lost" daughter, allowed lt TO
again be inferred in the same spot, ia
the same pauper pine-box that is Chart,
ably furnished at the public expense for
such bodies as are unclaimed. The his
tory of the young girl is indeed a sad
one. She was beautiful girl, and well
educated naturally vivacious and joy
full, bat she was enticed from her home,
and her future career is briefly told
Abandoned by her parents, despised by
her other relatives, Stunned by her for
mer friends and acquaintance, deprived
of her once happy and comfortable home,
and denied the counsel and assistance
necessary 10 cheer and attract her from
the wrong path, is it any wonder she led
a brief life of shame and found har-

"Top Not Come Down"

1t is related that once upon a,time the
ladies decorated their heads with pecu-
liar gear called top knot A parson of
a certain parish, grieved at the extrava-
gance of the gentler portion of his flock,
and finding all his private admOnitions
of no avail, determined to preach SER
mon to his congregation from words con-
tanned in the Path chapter of Matthew,
where, in a certain predicted event, the
admonition is given-'Let him which is
.on the house top not come dotcR." This
was exactly the thing, as by ingenious
selection Of words an express seriptural
command might be made against the
very abomination the worthy man wished
to denounce. Accordingly, on the fol-
lowing Sabbath, the ladies were astound-
ed upon hearing the sermon commenced
as follows That solemn and impor-
tant portion Of the Scriptures which has
been chosen for our instruction this
morning, viii be found recorded in the
XIV. chapter of the Gospel according to
St Matthew, 18th verse" Top mot come

expatiated at length and with unwonted
feeling and eloquence for the space Of
two hours on the varieties and follies of

peremptory that they must come dorm.
