ALeap for Doath.

From the Boston Journal
A poor fellow named Thomas Coyne,
sentenced to the state prison for life, to
whose heart hope has been for six years
stranger. attempted to end his earthly
existence Tuesday morning by making q
desperate plunge, head foremost, from the
fourth corrodor in the south wing to the
solid granite pavement, nearly forty feet
below. Miraculous as it seems, he was
in no way injured, and literally escaped
without any bruise. An old wooden
stool happened to stand on the place
where be fell, and his body, turning in
his descent, was preciptated upon it,
crushing it to spIinters. The stool saved
his life, for if he had fallen upon the
stone hoor every bone in his body must
have been shattered. He was taken up
in an unconscious condition, and carried
to the hospital, where he soon revived,
and in short time commenced to walk
about, only complaining of slight lame
ness in his legs. The prisoners we're
marching out 10 division at the time
about seven in the morning Coyne at
tempted to excuse himself by saying that
be slipped off the edge Of the corridor,
but this is an absolute impossibility, as
there are horizontal iron guards every
two feet on the outer edge of the corri-
dor, from the floor to the ceiling. BE
has been very down-spirited for some
days. and took this desperate method
to rid himself Of his despair; he is an
Irishmsn by birth, and has always borne
q good character in the prison. He was
q sailor, and the crime for which be re-
eeiyed life sentence was the murder of
q maa with whom be had some trouble
and whom he followed here from New
York for this purpose. He is thirty
four years Of age, and has just COM
pleied the sixth year Of HE term. Hav-
ing not friend in the world, and with
future almost a blank, it is no wonder
that be cared nothing for life.

states that she is the daughter OF local
pteacher living in Germantown, who
once was a missionary to Indie. For
more than two years she has been one OF
the moving spirits of the Forty
Thieves" Against the entreaties Of her
parents, against Gil the petitions of her
friends to return to her home and stay
there. she turned deaf ear. Wherever
the gang held its rendezvous, there she

were leaned against one Of the steep en-

shelter under which the gang slept. A
nile of old railroad ties, near by, was
used 10 cover up the booty that was
secured in the city, by robberies of every
description. The stump of tres was

The MOrmOn Missionaries In the

The columns of the Deseret Neps are
filed with letters and extracts from let
terra giving a most doleful account OF
the success and prospects of the Nor
mon missionaries in the States. One,
written from Berkshire county, Mass,
says that the amount Of prejudice dis
played by the people of that region
against the Latter Day work is very
great But few opportunities can be
obtained for preaching in public, and the
missionary says he has to do all his
preaching by the freside. Another mis-
sionary writes from Connecticut 10 SINH
lar terms. One, from Philadelphia, says
the prospects are not very brilliant at
present for the missionaries to the East
doing much by way of converting the
people, though the arrival of 80 many
elders from Utah is causing great deal
of comment. On the night previous to
writing, the missionaries tried to gain
admittance to lecture upon the subject,
"shall the Mormons and Mormonism be
tolerated in the United States" but the
place was 40 full that they could not
obtain admission. Another mission.
ary, writing from Illinois, says
that State is the hot-bed of apoststes,
and one is forced to contend against a
thousand lies that grow prolific among
that class of men. Another writes from
Greenwood, Steuben county, N. T., in
despair of ever making single convert
