More men kill themselves than women.
Women prefer jumping into the water ; men
prefer to blow their brains out. Aged men
cut their throats, and aged men take to
ropes. More single persons commit suicide

Ono of the most Trustworthy newspaper co


Ono of the most Trustworthy newspaper cor
respondents in Washington, Gen. II. V. n BoYS-
TON, has procured and published some Of the off.
cia dispatches relating TO the battle Of Nashville
and tic uncxccuted order for the removal of Gen.
GroRcE II. Thomas on the eve Of that battle.
The occasion for this publication is a statement
said TO have been made some time since at San
Francisco, in an after-dinner. speech, by Gen. II.
W. HALLEcK. The purport of this statement was
that Gen GRANT, being dissatisfied with the slow
ness Of THOMAS at Nashville. had sent tc II W.
IEcE, who was then in Washington, an
order relieving THOMAS, and assigning Gen.
j. VI. ScHorIELD to command in his place; but
that IALLrcK, having vainly tried to persuade
Mr.. LINCOLN aud Mr.. STANTON 20 countermand
this order, was allowed by them TO retain II for
few days, in order to give THOMAS further
chance. The rumor, when has had some cur
rency, that Gen. LOGAN was also mentioned at
that time as possible successor to THOMAS, was
pronounced groundless by Gen. HALLEcK.
The various documents which Gen. BoYSToS has
now furnished disclose much of the truth IN the
case They prove that Gen. HALLEcK was mistaken
in his recollection, and that his narration about
retaining an order was altogether erroneous
