NORFOLK, August 10. 1869.-You need
not be frightened on finding me dead.
1t was my wish long ago to die. I am
tired OF life of suffering and misery, as
L have led it for years. For years I have
valnly struggled against slander and
from my very bosom the woman i love,
and consigned me to life of starvation
and misery. I have not cent TO save
my life, no way of gaining anything, nor
any hope OF getting anything to do; for
people are too Christian to trust poor
man without heap of recommendations.
A man may be as great sooundrel as he
likes, II he only has recommendations he
Is sure to get q position; but the honest
man. who wishes nothing but to serve
his fellow-men, to do his duty faithfully
and thus make an honest living must be
prosecuted, hated, slandered, until he is
entirely ruined. I have fought this mi
serable propensity of men for twenty
years. am now tired of it and desire
rest, and therefore have gone where
alone I can find it-in tho grave. I
hope Mt least it will be granted me. 1t
is my last and only wish to be allowed
grave. May the proprietor of this nice
hotel forgive me that went into his
house without means to pay for my
board. I wished, for once, to feel like a
human being again. May the thought
that he cheered up the last moments Of a
poor, unhappy wretch console him for
the loss of his money.
Please send the letter you find to its
address. May the Lord bless all who
have ever been kind to me. May He
forgive me and receive me in mercy.

DETROIT, November 24.-The North
ern Pacific Railroad Convention reas
sembled this morning at East Saginaw
The committee on Resolutions agreed
on the following:
Resolved, That the committee deem
it the true policy of the country to e1
tend to such projects as those OF the
railroads from Mackinaw to Pugett
Sound and open the line of the proposed
Southern Pacific road, such aid as viii
secure their speedy construction that
we may cite the prosperity of such
States and districts as have been liberal
in aiding great public works as a per.
petual argument to show the safety and
wisdom Of such policy.
Resolved, That while the railroads OF
Michigan and the Northwest, as pioneers
in the development of our own and
neighboring States, as far as
their system is completed, are
entitled to our highest consideration
and demand the warmest encourage
ment and support from the Convention
and people we represent, we do now
especially and earnestly call upon Con
gress to extend Government aid in such
efficient form as it may be deemed best
to the construction of the Northern
Pacific railroad to the Straits of Macki-
nav, as the most important of all our
railroad interests.
The Secretary of the Convention was
instructed to furnish certified copies OF
the resolutions and printed copies of the
proceedings of the Convention to the
President and Council also to the Presi,
dent of the Senate aud Speaker of the
House of Representatives and the
Chairman of the Pacific railroad, the
Ways and Means and Finance commit
