A SAD CASE.
Suicide Of q Woman.

Mrs. Mllie Priest sui
eide in New York under very pain
ful circumstances Her husband,
who resides in New Orleans, separa-
ted from her when alone and un-
friendless. She came to New York,
and after some time spent in an un-
availing struggle to obtain suitable
employment, she was at length en-
gagged in the capacity of cashier at
the Wetmore House. Being una
ble to discharge the Duties of this
position, and being absolutely tired
of existence, the unfortunate woman
determined on committing suicide.
Accordingly, she procured Il guam
tity of opium, with which, on Sun
day, she carried her design into ex-
ecution.
A number Of letters were found
under her pillow, among them the
following to her husband:
DECEMBER 81.
DEAR, DEAR-SI: When you get
this | am no more. All [ asked fol-
in this world was your love; it was
denied me. You have cast me from
you as you would a dog. I cannot
live without you; my heart is bro
ken. | have left your family pic
lures and your slippers with Anna
Asmire. If you wish, you can
write to her and she will give you
further particulars. May you be
happy, and remember your even
loving bat heart broken MILLIE.
In a letter to the friend above al
luded to, the unfortunate woman
says: "When I saw you yesterday
You little supposed that it was the
last time you would ever, see me
When you said I looked pale, I in
tended to tell you, but my heart
failed me. I was discharged this
morning, but, dear Annie, it is not
my fault; I have tried to do my
best. | wish my husband to think
of times when I was happy; yes,
was very happy once, but I have
been a heart broken woman for 6
long time. Tell my husband I for
give him and love him as much as
ever" This letter was addressed
to Mrs. Anna Asmire, No. 40 Jane
street, Ney York city.
| Coroner Schirmer held all inquest
on the body. The evidence showed
that the deceased had committed
suicide by taking poison, and tho
jury found a verdict accordingly

Some time ago cow belonging to
a farmer, who lives upon the line of
the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chi
cago Railroad in one of the north
ern counties Of Indiana, ran upon
the track in front of a train. badly
wrecking it, and injuring several
persons. The railroad company
sued the owner of the COW for the
full amount of the damage caused,
and recovered verdict of $1,000.
An appeal was taken to the Supreme
Court Of Indiana, and the court af-
firmed the verdict.

The ability to hold ones tongue
seems to be the rarest gift in the
world-espeeially among politicians.
| No sooner does neWspaperreport-
er approach one of these aspiring
magnates than he forthwith enters
upon full disclosure ofall he knows
thinks and has ever heard of! He
unpacks the budget Of his opinions
on every conceivable sulject-re-
peats his private conversations with
every prominent man he has ever
known, and tells, without the slight
est hesitation or seruple what he
thinks of every man, public or pri-
vate, within the circle of his ac-
quaintances And he does this
knowing all the while that the repor
ter will write down all be can re
member of his remarks, eNaggerate
them enough to make them spicy,
and print them in the columns Of the
newspaper on which he is employed.
What could have induced any man
of common sense to utter such q
rigamarole as Wade talked to a wes-
tern reporter the other day? Ihad
Stevens had . still longer and still
freer talk with another reporter,
which was also printed few months
ago. People who have any opin
ions worth anything and any regard
for the feeling Of others are usually
q little cautious about talllingto to peo
pie who listen only to print what
they say. 1t will be a good lille,
we trust before Gen. Grant is pol
itician, or candidate enough to get
out Of this commendable habit

A corresp ondent ofth New York
Times is responsible for the follow
ing sensible paragraph:
In view Of developments in other
quarters, we should regard Gen.
Grants obstinate silence as proof of
his capacity for the Presidency,
even if he had shown no other talent.

What a Newspaper Can Do


The Celebrated Emerson says -
''Show me an Intelligent family of
boys and girls, and we will show you
a family where newspapers and Pc
riodicals are plentiful. Nobody
who has been without these silent
private tutors can know their edu
eating power for good or evil.
Have you ever thought Of the in
umerable topics of discussion which
they suggest at the breakfast table !;
the important public measures with
which thus early, our children be-
come familiarly acquainted; great
philanthropic questions of the day
to which unconsciously their atten-
ton is awakened and the general
spirit Of intelligence which is evoked
by these quiet visitors Any thing
that makes home pleasant, cheerful
and chatty, thins the haunts Of VIC >,
and the thousand and one avenues OF
temptation, should certainly be re
garded, when we consider its In
fuence on the minds of the young,
as q great moral and social light.

4 dispatch to the Cincinnati Ca
zette from Indianapolis, Ind, Of the
Cd list. says:
At an adjourned meeting Of bust
ness men including the Board OF
Trade and bankers and merchants,
irrespective Of party, held this after
noon, at the Chamber of Commerce,
the following resolutions were re
ported, and unanimously adopted:
Resozcea, That it is the duty of
Congress, under the Constitution,
to regulate the currency and pro-
vide for the general welfare; and
that az there now exists an indispen-
sable necessity for this exercise, we
ask for q comprehensive policy,
plainly marked out by law, and one
which shall embody the following:
1st, Cessation Of the whole policy
of ofcontraction. s.ss sa
%, Payment Of the public debt,
precisely in accordance with the
letter or spirit Of the laws under
which it was made.
Sd, The postponement Of the
liquidation of any portion of the
principal Of the public debt, until
the people are able to pay the same
without distress Or impoverishment
to themselves.
4th, That in order to quiet the
just apprehension ofa great major
ity ofthe people who are clamorous
for equal taxation, we say, exchange
the bonds, as stipulated by law, into
another class of Indebtedness, and
thus avoid the public agitation of
the question.
9Th, That as foreign markets are
in great measure cut off, we should
strive to build up home markets,
and thus increase the objects ofcom-
petition.
9th, That we are opposed to the
accumulation of gold in the Treas
ury beyond the wants of the Gov
ernment.
7th, IF practicable, the funding Of
the gold interest bonds into long
bonds, at rate of interest not eX-
ceeding five per cent.
Sth, The repeal of the cotton tax
9th, Take away from all revenue
officers the power to compromise
with parties who violate the revenue
laws, and leave them entirely with
the Courts.
The meeting was quite numerous
ly attended, andrepresented the sub
stantial business men to great ex-
tent.

In speaking Of the Congressional plan OF re-
