SPRINGFIELD.--SUICID - RELIGIOUS
Barnes, young
man about % years of age, who was at
work in the printing Office in this place
committed suicide on Saturday morning
by taking laudanum. He was discovered
about 8 o'clock a. m, and was then just
alive, but insensible. He was found on
bed in the room where he had been at
work, and lived about half an hour after
being discovered. He had not been in
good health for some time, and this in
connection with recent disappointment
in love affair is supposed to have i'm
PEELED him to the act. His conduct and
conversation for several days past had led
those intimate with him to fear that he
might be meditating such deed. He
wrote two or three letters Friday night,
one to his employer and one to the young
lady referred to. His family and relatives
reside in New Hampshire The deceased
was a young man Of irreproachable char
acter, and was recently united with the
Congregational church in this place.

TRINITY PARIsH's CHRISTMAS FEsTI-
vAL.-The Christmas festival of the child
dren of Trinity Parish, held at the Opera
House, Monday evening, Dec. 9th, was a
very pleasant and successful affair. About
300 of the members of the parish, includ-
ing of course, all the children and many
of larger growth, assembled at the Hall
at six o'clock in the evening. The decks
had been cleared for action, and while
busy hands upon the stage put the finish
ing touches to the brilliantly lighted and
heavily loaded Christmas tree, hidden
meanwhile behind the drop curtain, the
children romped to their hearts content.
The curtain was then raised as the
children sung their favorite Christmas
Carol after which the rector, the Rev.
J. M. Peck, assisted by the teachers, dis
tributed the precious fruit to his eager
and bright-eyed flock. No one was for
gotten or neglected, and the rector and
his family were made the recipients OF
several valuable and elegant gifts from
the Sunday school teachers and others.
An ample collection followed, which sent
the children merrily to their homes, and
all present must have felt that the Christ.
mas-tide of 1869 had thus added one more
fragrant memory to the joyous recollec.
tions of the past

The Pail Mall Gazette says: "a recent
number of the Gartenlaube contains an
interesting and romantic sketch, by Will |
helm Cent? of Mile Time, the female ex-
plorer, whose tragical death this year WAS
q real loss to science. This remarkable |
woman was the daughter of an English
merchant and of Dutch lady of good
family attached to the court of the present
Queen of Holland. Her father dying
when she was only five years old, she was
left an heiress to considerable property i
and as, moreover, her personal attractions
were great, she had no lack of suitors
when she grew up, and those of the best
birth and quality. But TO all she turned
deaf ear. What could be the reason
"Rumor, incredulous that the fair
haired beauty could be insensible to the
universal passion, whispered that she
nourished a hopeless love to some unat-
tainable Prince. and that il was this which
subsequently drove her, despairing, into
the wilderness. However that may be,
two barons are said, in the eagerness of
their suit, to to have followed her to Khar-
tum. Her earliest developed tastes were
those of an Amazon. She delighted in
tanning horses, and sought nature in

Journey OF any length was to the
North Pole. The Queen of Holland
gave her introductions to many
courts of Europe, but she was bent on
visiting the East, and made her first ex-
petition there when i'll her eighteenth
year. She then trayerscd Asia Minor,
Syria and Egypt, and seems at once to
have suecumbed to the fascination which
hax II
minds OF European women as we'll as
men. But it was not the love of rule
which she sought to crafty, like Lady
Hester Stanhope; nor was it the grasp
ing desire for health, and the simple hui
man sympathies which bound her to the
East, like Lady Duff Gordon's; her pas
sion was to solve the problem of Nile dis
covery. For this she resolved to turn
Africa to the best of her power; adopted
the Egyptian dress, surrounded herself
with African servants, and engaged a
sunuch for her protection.
"The native tribes of the interior inn

LUDLow.-The festival of the Baptist
Sunday school was held on the evening
of December 31st, at Hammond Hall,
Elegant and abundant decoration bore
witness to the good taste and untiring
industry of the committee and their
assistants. The tables were loaded with
bountiful supply of good things, to
which ample justice was done. The room
was crowded almost to discomfort nearly
the entire evening. The presents this
year were not made as prominent as last,
provision only being made for the classes
of young children, and the giving of fam
lily presents in this way not being en-
couraged. Yet it was found that the two
large and tastefully constructed cornu-
copias contained gifts for most of the
scholars and mot a few of the teachers,
and if eyes can be read with any cer-
tainty they must have been very aceepta-
BILE
The Uniyersalist school at their meet
ing house, on New Years evening con-
cluded the series of Sunday school testi-
walls The house was beautifully deco
rated, and we'll SLED. Singing and other
appropriate exercises were performed
Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr.. Farms
worth of Springfield, whe also addressed
the school in very interesting manner
for about three-fourths of an hour. Fol
| lowing this was the distribution of pres
ents to the scholars and other members OF
the society The articles were most taste
fully arranged upon two trees and IL
| front of the desk, were numerous, anc
many of them rich aud beautiful. Wher
the hearts of many had thus been made
glad, the singing of
"Lord dismiss us with thy blessing"
closed the exercises of one of the mos
pleasant and successful gatherings which
it has been our good fortune to attend.
But fairer sight than all the riches
Christmas gifts was the load of joyou
and smiling children whom Mr.. Il. Daw
ley of the Ludlow House INDUCED him
self in giving ride about town aud
dinner at his own table, on New Year
day. Many a jolly company has sa
down to good dinner or supper during
the many years of history of that hote
under its numerous landlords, but W
warrant that never prettier or happie

who served them, than this.
Rev. Ira Pearson, according to hi
custom on the first Sabbath of the yeal
read the list of deaths in town during tn
past year. The number was twenty-si,
of whom sixteen were over fifty years G

@ Two CRoPs OF MELoNs.-A cultiva-
tor of melons in Alabama is rejoicing
over his second crop of melons from the
same vines this season. The vines were
put back quite severely after the first crop
had matured, and from the old stumps
new vines started, from which crop is
now being gathered. 1t is quite probable
, that in a climate where there are no frosts,
all of the members of the melon and
squash family could with proper care be
made perennial instead of annual. Our
florists understand this art, and have ap-
piled it to many plants in cultivation.
By proper pruning, and perverting the
maturity of seeds, the life Of ANNALS and
biennials may be prolonged number of

BoutweIl,s Calumniators.


The Secretary of the Treasury ha,
brought down upon his head the denun
citation Of GLASS of spectators who have
been compelled to retire from stock job
hing operations by the wise and prompt
policy adopted by Mr.. Boutwell,. HI
does not manage the affairs Of the Treas
ury department to cater to the bulls
bears and middle-men, and that is what
has annoyed the GROWERS who express sc
much indignation that he does not pursue
ssme different course, so that they may
be forearmed, and speculate accordingly
He does not see fit 10 consult the inter
ssts and wishes of spectators, but that Of
the whole people, and the severe denun
Citations to which he is subjected, indi
Gates that he is meeting the approval Of
the masses. Under his administration
the people see that the national debt il
being paid, gold steadily declining to par
and the prices of commodities approx
mating to what they were before the war
BY the action of Secretary Boutwell, and
the Cabinet the administration is daily
growing in favor and streng...
The political and CONNER cial atmos
phere has been full of these denunciations
OF Secretary Boutwell,. Bulls and bears
have joined in their imprecations. 1t has
made no difference whether the market
was rising or falling, the speculative
whirlpool has been seething; every broker
who has lost his margins have blamed
him. Combinations would not work
Rings have been demolished, and pools
would not sell. They have been unable
to bring forward outsiders, and the market
has been unsettled. These gentlemen have
cursed him morning, noon and night, and
all the day long. No public officer has
ever before been showered with such
torrents of abuse. There are honorable
business men who have not joined in this
hue and cry; it is from Adventures who
have been endeayoring to make money
without toll and those brokers Who seel
to draw friends and acquaintance into
the stock market, but frequently they are
unsuccessful. No doubt this class have
reason to complain, for in protecting the
commercial interests of the country the
Secretary of the Treasury interferes with
their plans, which is rapidly prostratine
their business, and if this vigilent course
is pursued, nine-tenths of these knights O.
adventure will be ruined and compelled
to betake themselves to other more honor
2able pursuits for living. Letlthese jay
hawkers of the stock market continue
, their walls of despair, and cry aloud fol
vengeance, the people and the country
will sustain Secretary Boutwell,, and the
nation go on in its commercial relations
notwithstanding the bulls and bears Of
wall, State and Broad streets.
