Suicide 90 an Editor efTthe Atlanta


From the St. Louis Democrat, lath.
About a week ago, DIR. B. l.. Seago,
assistant editor of the Atlanta Era, arrived
in this city, and took room in the fifth
story Of the Southern Hotel. He ap-
pcared quite melancholy, and had but
little to SAY to any one about the hotel.
On Thursday, bills were sent to the office
from an apothccary for one ounce OF
morphine and three prescriptions COM
posed of morphine and chloroform. The
las, seen of him was on Friday night. AT
: o'clock yesterday Sunday his room
was entered through the transom, and his
dead body found lying on the bed. Coro.
ner O'Reilly was summoned, and an in.
quest was held. Several letters written by
the deceased short time before his death
were found on the table, showing that nc
had taken his own life. No money was
found among his effects, nor had he de-
posted any ct the office of the hotel. lie
was about thirty years of age. Several
letters, written in pencil, were found.
THE SUICIDES LAST MOMENTS.
This is my fourth and last dose. ! am
getting quite sleepy, and soon will be gone
Welcome, Oh, DEATH To live is to suffer
unuttcrably; to die is to be at rest.
Much | could write, but brcvity must be
the style now. / only desire to be remcm-
bcred kindly. Let those who love me love
my memory. fl have wronged any man.
let him forgive, as he would wish to be for
given. But one word for her who alone
has won my love. She who had evidence
of my love five years ago still reigns alone
in my heart. Day before yesterday | sent
her few lines, which, when she receives
them, she will recognize, though there is on
signature to them. May God bless her, and
deal with her tcnderly. Let no wave OF
sorrow ever cross her breast; no misfortune
ever cast its blighting shadow upon her
soul. | am too sleepy to write well, and
can only say, goodbye. Oh, shall we never
meet While our hope and bliss are young,
but no more. Alas! alas! shall
| meet her 10 more. God bless her. Hcr
name is Della, and I desire that this may
be sent to her through my uncle, IL. IL.
Scago.
Goodbye to all. May God in his mercy
bless nil who have ever loved me. l am
now getting very sleepy, but oh, sweet Is
the death that relieves the soul from the
anguish. the griciS of this life, which is but
few days and full of trouble.
The proprietor of the hotel will be kind
enough to telegraph to my uncle, Mr.. A.
Il. Seago, Atlanta, Georgia, Immediately
on the discovery of my suicide tomorrow
Accept my thanks for your kindness
while at your hotel. | desire to be buried
by the Masons, and in the cemetery at At
lanta, Georgia. have tried to live nobly
and die nobly. To correct any impression
that might be made, state that this is no
story concerning my griefs, and | call
again the proprictors to be ready. God
bless all. Goodbye. LOUIS.

What Two virginia Girls Did.

Among the strangers in Philadelphia at
this moment are two ladies from Martins
burg, West Virginia. Yesterday they were
purchasing q seed drill, a moving machine,
and other agricultural implements, whose
cost in the aggregate was about eight hun
dred dollars. Their home was very close
10 the theatre of the late war. Between
the two contending armies their houses
and their barns were burned, their horses
and their cattle driven of, their only
brother conscripted into the rebel army,
and themselves left utterly destitute and
homeless. Any one who, seeing young
lady such as we saw yesterday, had been
told that she had personally ploughed and
planted many acres of land, would have
laughed to scorn the party SO informing
him. Such. lSwsSer, is literally the case.
~. ~ ss.r ned the facts from gentleman re-
siding in the vicinity. The smoking runs
of the farm upon which these Young people
ras;ded had scarcely cooled when the
neighbors dubbed together, built them
LOG house, and eXtemporized them sort
of barn. Horses were loaned to them, and
the girls with their own hands ploughed
the ground and seeded it with corn. The
I crop grew apace, and with their own hands
they harvested it. They sold it to good
advantage. They had owned fc'tv-scven
negro slaves. Some of these wen. INTO the
Union army, others deserted the locality.
The girls were left alone to battle with the
vicissitudes of the war.
Our informant, whose respectabillty Is
beyond question, says that these girls
produced by their work in the field more
decided and productive results than were
accomplished by the entire gang OF slaves.
They toiled for three years, and now have
comfortable house and most substantial
barns upon their property, while improve
ments have been made upon if TO an ex-
tent that makes ii Of considerably more
value than before the torch of conflicting
armies reduced its buildings to ashes.
One Of the young ladies has since married,
but the others still do duty as their own
oyerseers," and they themselves pur-
chased yesterday and directed the ship
ment OF the agricultural implements to
which We have above referred. The Won
der 10 the dealer was, that lady, deli
cateiy gioved, and attired as though she
had never overstepped the bounds of the
boudoir, should descant experimentally
and intelligently upon the respective merits
Of the different reaping machines, and mon
the comparative values of the different
patents for threshing out the cereals.
These young ladies were educated in
Philadelphia, and are well known to many
ofour best people.-Philadetphia american

WENDELL PHILLIPS A CANDIDATE FOR
CONGRESS. is intimated as not i'm
probable that Wendell Phillips may be
sent to Congress from a Boston district.
This possibility is based on the eight hour
movement, a combination of mechanics of
all parties who are very earnest in the in
tention to put out of Office any man who
does not agree to their creed as to the
hours of labor, irrespective of political
issues. They find an eloquent champion
in the arch-abolitionist, and actually con-
template the project of sending him to
Congress in their interest.
