ALL RIGHT AGAIN.-As we thought, it
was the destruction of the temporary
trestle work at Alum Creek, about three
miles east of Columbus, that caused the
failure of the Wednesday fast train on
the Central Ohio railroad. 1t was car
ried away by high water in the creek
The old bridge was destroyed by fire
last summer, it will be remembered, and
the temporary trestle work was put in
that has just been washed away. AS
the trains of the Panhandle road, as
we'll as the Central Ohio, cross this
bridge, would it not be as well to build
q substantial iron bridge at this point
at oncei They have now fixed up q
temporary arrangement by which trains
can pass, and in few days everything
will be right again.

RosADALIs! RosADALIs RosADALIs.-
This medicine has become justly cee-
brated as the most reliable Alternative
we possess. 1t is well conceded med
ical fact, that those Alternatives which
exert an influence on the Kidneys, in
creasing the quantity of urine and i'm
proving its quality, will prove the most
efficacious in the treatment of diseases.
1t is on this account that the RoSGdalis
is so much more reliable, and produces
so much more speedy action in Chronic
Diseases than any before known to the
medical profession and the public. 1t is
composed of medicines that not only
possess the most powerful Alternative
properties, but also Diuretic, Tonic,
Hcpatic and Diaporetic properties, and
it therefore acts directly upon the Sc
cretions ofthe system and carries off tho
Impurities, not only through the
Blood, but also through the Skin, Kid
neys, &c.

RIVER NEws.-The river has been
rising with great rapidity here during
the past twenty.four hours, and last
evening the marks indicated twenty
FIVE feet ten inches in the channel and
rising. We understand that Captain
Gray received dispatch from Pitts
burgh, just before DARK, saying that there
was eighteen feet of water in the chan
mel there and river stationary. If this
be true there is no ground for fears of
an overflow, for the depth of water here
will not not exceed thirty feet on this
rise.
The st. Charles, Captain bravo, arriv-
ed yesterday from Cincinnati. She was
compelled to lie here most of the day
shortening her smoke stacks to get

The coal feet is beginning to get
down stream pretty lively now. The
Hill with eight barges and the Rover
with eight passed down yesterday.
These are but the skirmish line of the
fleet. The packets Messenger, Glendale
and Belle passed down yesterday.
The Pittsburgh Post of yesterday pub
fishes list of "a steamers, 40 coal boats
and 271 barges ready to. start down and
says:
The coal fleet is partially snder way.
The balance will get off to-day and to.
morrow. The shipments were, for Lou.
isville 1851 900 bushels; for Cincinnati,

The r. Z. Hudson will arrive today
and leave tomorrow at o'clock for
Cincinnati. A better and more reliable
boat than the Hudson there is not. She
is always at the wharf on time, whether
the river be high or low.
The Maggie Hays left Pittsburgh last
evening for st. Louis. The Glasgow for
Nashville and the tow-boat Wild Duck

SHOCKING SUICIDE.
AMAN CUTS HIS JUGLAR.
Insanity the Probable Cause.
A sickening Sight.

Yesterday morning about 9 o'clock
this community was startled by the
report that German named John Isen,
shoemaker living on Market street, q
few doors south of Quincy, had COM
mitted suicide.
Weimmediately repaired to the resi-.
dence of the unfortunate man and
found him lying on the floor, which was
a perfect sea of blood, and the vital
fluid flowing in stream from four fear
full gashes in his neck, and quite num-
Der of our physicians doing all in their
power to check the flow. of blood, in
which they were successful, but net
until so much of the life current was
gone that all hopes of saving his life
had fled.
From what we could gather, the man
has been insane for some time. He has
had an idea that his enemies were pub
fishing, in the newspapers, articles re-
fecting on his honor and honesty. 1t is
unnecessary to say that no such articles
ever were printed. Yesterday morning
he told his wife that his enemies had
sent file of soldiers after him and that
they should never take him alive, to
insure which he had provided him
self with shoe-knife having q
blade about two inches in length, and
with point on it as sharp as dagger.
She threw one of her arms on his shout
der, and with the other hand attempted
to take the knife from him. Just then
the steamer st. Charles, coming up the
river, fred a cannon. This the excited
man heard, and he cried in German
"there you hear. The soldiers are
shooting at me-" and he plunged the
knife into his neck and drew it toward
his chin, severing the external jugular,
dividing all the muscles and glands on
the right side of his neck. The blood few
all over his wife's hands, and as she
naturally drew from him, he made a
second cut on the other side of his neck,
nearly as bad as the first. The woman
then ran on to the porch on the east side
of the house and called for help, and
while she was gone he cut himself twice
more.
Everything that medical science and
skill could do was done for the unfortu-
nate man, but without avail. He died
about noon yesterday.
He leaves quite large family, ard,
we understand, in moderately good cir
cumstances. He was, we should judge,
about so years of age. We have not
heard any cause assigned for his in
sanity.
An inquest was held over the body by
Squire Johnston, at 3 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, and the jury found verdict
Of death from suicide caused, by abera-
ton of mind.
