curiosity was excited by these actions,
but no thought that anything OF an un-

that Mr.. B. contemplated any harm to

A correspondent Of the National Intel
Eqeacer makes some interesting state
ments ia regard to the National debt.
He states the interest upon it to he
100000 annually besides which
every Northern State, city and county,
and even the townships owe heavy debts,
the interest on which they are paying.
We quote the following paragraphs
aTheFe Is another heavy burthen
which the present generation will have
TO bear, and that is, the pensions, the es-
Inmates for which for the next fiscal year
are S33, ,000,00 t which amount will di-
minish little or nothing for the next ten
years, and, indeed, will probably rather
| Increase from the numerous new apph
cations. At any rate, the present gene
ration will in the next ten years have to
nav not less than three hundred mil
| lion of dollars for this item alone. After
| ten wears the amount will annually de-
GREASE hy deaths, and this part of the
| burthen' will therefore fall more heavily
on the existing community than on their
successors, who could so much readily
meet i.
"D6Ing the same ten years the pres
/ ent gekyaFatiaa viii have paid the enOr-
nous sum OF 81, ,43O, 100000 for interest
on the debt, making with the pensions,
more than 81 100 900 ,000, and ON the top
! of this some hundreds of millions for
arrears and unsettled claims that must
/ be paid, making an aggregate OF more
| than A,00Q 00u, 900 exclusive of any re-
duction of the debt during that period.
"0uF present system of taxation, and
eur immense revenue is pressing very
heavily and very disadvaQtageOusly
upon the energy, enterprise, and pros
perity of the cegnsry, and TO continue to
| collect saSh an unnecessarily large
amount Of revenue beyond the current
| expenses of the government, including
the interest on the debt, is only killing
the goose that lays tAs goieh eggs.
=" A very large amount Of taxes, both
| frOla internal revenue and customs can
be, aud ought 10 be repealed or reduced,
| In the best interests OF the country, pres
ent and prospective, spa-a a reduction
ought to be made. 1t wOnld not only

BExARHARLE SUICIDE.
A Man Makes HIS Own Codin and nFSss es
Himself for the Grave,


From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.l
Ry suppresslng Dames and location,
we Violate no confidence in giving pub
licity to some strange facts, tAas aeci-
dentally came into our possession yes
terday. The occurrence, which we shall
relate, happened in hamlet not one
hundred miles from this city, and was,
we imagine, an anomaly 10 sensation
annals. 1t seems that MF. b. settled
in -, some ten yeaFs ago, upon small
farm. He was man of intelligence and
energy, and, from time to time, pur-
chased adjoining pieces of land sad
added them to his farm until the latter
numbered within its bounds between two
and three hgr5Fed acres. So superior
was his intelligence, and so upright his
character, that he eventually became
one of the most ln1uential men IN his
community. Mr.. Z. had q family Of
three daughters and two sahs. All Of
his family were afforded extra advan-
tages IN the way of quiring fashionable
and Substantial ed l.cations. One of the
sons graduated at an eastern college, and
the other holds responsible position in
Cincinnati mercantile house,
Trouble was lgrkipg peaT, however,
Some two yeaIs since, Mr.. b. indOrsed q
brothers note to the amount of $40, 900.
ais better judgment opposed the act
bnt the brother was deep in financial
trouble. and in no other way could he be
relieved. Well, the note fell due, DO ex-
tension would be granted, the brother
! could not pay the amount, aud Mr. b.
was Obliged to mortgage his farm TO
satisfy the demands upon him as indorser
| of the note, So sudden and unexpected
| a reverse in his hitherto prosperous
| career caused him to become moody and
detected. This grew more intense as the
feeling crept on him thai he could never
| lift the mortgage, and that his family
and himself would probably have to de-
| seend from their proud position in
| society. and be subjected to want and
penury. In vain his family tried to give
| the future a cheerful look in vain the
sons nromised TO lend their entire ener-
gies "a The work of clearing the deht-thG
father grew more and more detected, apC
was evidently sinking into settled
despair that must bereft him of life o.

was claiming his attention, in q too

A Darmstadt letter states that the
greater number Of the old immediate
nobility of Upper Hesse, namely, four
princes and counts of Solms, two counts
of Issnburg, the counts Of Stolberg and
of Linange, have intimated to the Off
cials Of the first grand ducal cham5er
that they win not take their seats this
session. According to the Hesse Gazette
this resolution is refersble to the peculiar
situation of Upper Hesse and to the cir
eumstance that these personages possess
large properties in Prussia.
Fine aud clear days succeeding the
rain at Hamburg afford the opportunity
for hunting. The ground is covered with
soft snow, but that is little obstacle TO q
German sportsman. The Jiger of the
Taunus have set the example; for the
last two days large parties have been en-.
gagged in the direction Of Konigstein and
Cronberg.

a pine knot, which was severed from

of insensibility for the space al four days,
at the end OF which tirne he seemed to
recovRr from the shock, and the external
wound readily healed Vl) in short time
hut he was Immediately salzed with
series of spasms and dts, which cOntin-
ned for some time, and rendered him
unfit for the service, wilereupon he came
home.
The fits ceased, but he complained of
constant pain in his head and became
partially deaf. He continued in this
condition till three weeks since, when he
was again attacked by the fits and suf-
fered three in one day, and after an IN
terval of five or six days suffered another,
and another ON the day following. Az
