THE magazines for May have gener-
ally been issued, and are of more than
usual interest:
- The Atlantic has sterling table of
contents in which, among other things,
we flnd: The Turf and the Trotting
Horse in America; On Pair of Specta-
cles; The Clear Vision A Gentleman
of an Old School Did he take the Prince
to ride, and The Next President, which
are alone worth the subscription price Of
year.
HARPER's New MONTHLY is spark
ling with good things, and continues to
hold its high position.
THE NORTHERN MONTHLY is steadily
gaining in interest, and in several re-
spscts Is the peer of any of its older COM
petitors. The present number contains
two rather remarkable articles, one by
Gen. Francis A. Walker, headed The
Greenback Era, and the other by DR..
Beard, entitled, The Proper Use ofStim-
ulants aud Norcotics. The first article
attributes all our political and moral ills
to the excessive issue of Greenbacks, aad
the latter advocates the moderate use of
Stimulsnts and Ma rcotics.

surcrpx.-Last Friday, Mr.. Jehn X.
Nswland, an old citizen Of Belmont
County, residing In Martins Ferry, COM
-mitted suicide by shooting himself For
several years Mr.. Newiand has been la
boring under disease which has seri-
ously impaired his mind, and impressed
him with the belief that lie and his fam
lily would come 10 want. On several oc-
caslons he has attempted self.destructien
bat failed to accomplish his purpose
The following note found In his pocket
book, clearly indicates his long formed
purpose TO destroy his life.
Good bye, dear wife and children; /
cannot live any longer. Opity, but do
not blame me; In the deepest sorrow Of
my heart, Good bye to all my friends.
JOHN X. NEwLAND."
"Aprh %, 1907
Mr.. Newlsnd at the time the act was
committed, was setting in his dining
room shortly after dinner, his son asleep
on the settee, the only other person in
room, the report of pistol aroused the
son, and on examination he found his
father had shot othimselfthrough the head,
the ball entering through the temple.
Medical aid was at once called, but was
of little avail, and he died abouo five
o'clock. A coroners jury on examina-
tion found: the deceased came to his
death by pistol shot wound, inflicted
by his own hands.n An examination OF
the revolver, showed that the caps had
been snapped " on three barrels, with.
out discharging the loads. On q previ.
GUS occasion he obtained possession of q
pistol, and went with 1t to colored man
to get him to load it for him. The color.
ed man, understanding the situation
examined the pistol, found 1t loaded and
extracted the loads before Gaping an6
returning it. As soon as the pistol wa,
placed in his hands, he raised 1t to hi
head and pulled the trigger, and was in
csnsed at the man for deceiving him.
Mr.. Newland was man of excellent
education, had a well stored mind, ant
was very highly esteemed by those wht
were best acquainted with him. He will
be missed by many of his old friends ant
associates, and his family, in their be
reavement will have the sympathy o
his and their many friends and acquaint
ances.

The revolutionary symptoms in France
attract attention all over Europe. Gem
orally they are regarded as harbingsrs of
q growing determination Of the people
to shake of the bonds which have be-
come nearly unbearable. The Empire is
liable to crumble almost in mon1snt.-
A celebrated English physician recently
visited the Tuilleries and spoke with the
physicians Of the Emperor. From their
conversation he learned that the frequent
fainting fits to. to which the Emperor is
of the heart, which might bring about
his sudden death, Though II does not ex-
actly exclude the possibility of leng
life,. In reference to the Prince Impsri-
al, II is stated on the same rather rclia-
able source that,the constitution Of the
heir to the throne does not give promise
of his reaching his majority. p5v f.

Allegheny Cattle Market.
From the Pittsburgh Gazette.

TUESDAY, April q, 1868.
CATrLE.-There was a fair supply of cattle on
sale to-day, all of which, with the exception of
two or three small lots, were from Chicago and
the greater proportion Of good quality, being
prime fat steers. The demand, however, was
apparently less active than last week; but not
wtthstanding the market ruled q little slow and
dull, prices were firm and well sustained There
seems to be little or no demand for stoclxers-
one firm alone having over seventy head left
over unsold. AS will be seen by reference to
sales, prime to extra beef cattle sold at from 8
to 9l8c, and good to medium ut to TIC. Stock
ers may be quoted at SO to 83<c.
SHEEP.-The market was we'll supplied, and
as a consequence, trade in this line was rather
dull. AS sageneral thing slight concessions had
to be made in order to effect sales. The follow
ing is partial report OF the transactions:
1o5 head OF common clipped sheep at 81 IS; $50
head n clipped and woolsd 90 ~ to ga 2lz head
County sheep at $3 to s51S u head; AZ head of
wooled sheep, at an average Of 81 o head.

The Democratic HOUSE ct Columbus
has found the words 'eUniop Loan I"
Objectionable and has stricken them out
Of the appropriation bill. At first IL
was sugarly phrased 1.-THE so-cnlled
Union Loan, but even that eavored
too much Of the late uppleasanfness for
the Democratic stomach.
Young men who cttme from other
States to attend Ohio Schools will here
after understand that In 80 doing they
must undergo the humiliation Of dis
fran cbisement. This rare inducemeDt
will no doubt cause great rush from
other States 10 Ohio Institutions Of learn
ing
SO the Democracy finds that churches
and colleges are It's antagonists and that
Its mission Is to encourage intemperance
and prize filing rather than these? A
lamentable confession indeed TO be made
by political leader In land where in
telligence is our pride aud safety! The
Democratic party of to-day arrays itself
against light and knowledge as well as
against loyalty and justice. No wonder
1t has been called "the organized ignor-
ance of the country
A day or two after the final passage OF
the bill taking the franchise from per-
sons attending schools and Colleges, q
! prominent Democratic member of the
Legislature remarked: "I voted for
that bill, l voted against the bill against
prize fitting. and vote for the repeal
Of the liquor law. Our party finds that
the clergy have wandered from Christian
principles, that the colleges and churches
are against as, and the Democratic party
has come to the conclusion that as IL
expects no favors from such institutions
it will give none.

Trade continues in much the same condition
that II was week ago and is cert Iinly lacking
In vitality. Medium and nne woods have been
stock is so light that full prices are readily
maintained, bat extra woods, which comprise
the bulk OF the stock now In the market, are
hardly so firm, and the sales of the past week
have been made at one or two cents below recent
quotations. We do not apprehsnd any very
marked decline In price, but In the present in
active condition ofthe market It is not surpris-
ing that some light concessions should be occa-
si0naliy made In order to effect sales.
