Attempted suicide of Napoleon.

.-. ..-. NEW YORK, Oct: 8.
The foreign mail which arrived here
tonight brought the particulars of Ma
poleon's attempt at suicide on the 18th
ult. The Cassel correspondent of the
Vienna Presses. who has peculiar facili-
ties for having reliable Information
writes as follows:
'The Prussian Government has issued
the strongest prohibition against the re-
ceipt at the telegraph Office of report
of the circumstances which l shall now
relate to you from Authentic sources, i'll
spite Of all attempts at concealment.l
Yesterday the news spread here like
wildfire that Napoleon had, on the 18th,
made an attempt at suicide. The details
of the affair are communicated by the
officer on guard. Napoleon for two da s
exhibited strange elevation of spirits.
He received during the last few days
several dispatches and letters from Paris
and Hastings, spoke but little, and for
two days left his room only once. This
was about five O'Clock in the evening"
He had given orders that all dispatches
which arrived should be brought to him
Immediately wherever he was. Two,
which had just come from Hastings and
Brussels, were accordingly taken to him
in the park.
"He read them and grew visibly pale,
he then returned to the castle and shut
himself up in his room. After they had
seen or heard nothing of him for two
hours his immediate attendants began
to be alarmed. About half-past nine
O'Clock they resolved on the pretext OF
having something important to COM
municate, to ask for admission into his
ROOM
"Prince Murat undertook the task,
but to his repeated knocks aud calls no
answer was returned. After half an
hour they broke open the door, and
found Napoleon lying on the sofa in a
deep faint.
"Two physicians were Immediately
brought, and they succeeded, after the
lapse of an hour, in bringing Napoleon
to himself, Every thing pointed to an
attempt at suicide. The Governor of
Cnssel made his appearance at a still
later hour in the castle, which was in a
state of the greatest confusion. The
Governor did not leave till morning.
and has sent long account of the mat
ter to the headquarters"

ing directly for them, and ere along the
splalshing of her bows could be heard.
The sloop's main sheet was eased off to
good full, her helm was lashed in such
a manner that she could not broach 10,
and then our four Yankee fisherman
hauled their boat up under the larboard
quarter, and let themselves down into
it. The painter was quickly east off,
and as they had not got far beyond the
point, it was quite an easy matter to
reach thelshore, where they arrived in
safety and unobserved by the English
man, who at that moment went plough
ing past in hot pursuit.
Away flew the deserted sloop, and on
went the doughty Englishman. In a
few moments a broad gleam shot forth
from the brigs bows, a heavy report
doomed over the water, and twenty
four pound shot went after the fugitive
Another and another. followed in quick
succession, until at length at the end of
half an hour, her firing ceased, and,
of the chase, Perkins and his compan-
ions started back for town. -5;T s5rla
AS soon as CAPTAIN Varney saw the
coast clear he cast off his moorings and
made sail to the southwark and east
ward, and by the time that the man-of
war brig ceased firing, he had left the
waters of Massachusetts, Bay behind
him, and was once more in the field of
his glory. adt 's.1 -sttt niofl isi..-'
At midnight the wind hauled around
to the eastward, and on next morning,
just as the gray dawn melted away
into broad daylight, thegood people of
Gloucester were somewat surprised at
seeing the English brig standing off
toward Boston harbor. On the same
day the old sloop was cast ashore on
Cape Ann, completely riddled by the
Englishman's balls, and as old Perkins
caught the first glimpse at her inartyred
condition, he was heard to exclaim:
f. "Wal, theirs one sloop gone that
wasn't worth her anchorage; but I've
got two good ones IN the harbor, au'
blast me if 1 won'tlet 'em both go, if
they'll only do as good sarvice as that
one did. rod t.f -
One NOR, incident, and we have done.
In three weeks from the night on which
the successful ruse was splaysd upon the
English brig in Gloucester harbor, Capt.
Sam. Varney carried into Salem an
English transport brig, loade with
ammunition and provisions, which had
been destined for the British troops in
Boston, but which eventually reached
the camp of GENERAL GEORGE WASH
INGTON.

into the zendnd, and there makes great
coughing and shuffling with his feet
Instantly every woman, except his wife
and mother, draws her chuddah. over
her face, and flies to her own room,
shutting the door. His wife draws her
veil close over her, and covers down
like frightened dove. When he goes
out he bangs the door with tremendous
slam; and then the women one by one
come out of their holes. 1t is the in
variable custom for each woman to cook
the food for herself, her husband and
her children. They may have plent;
of servants who do other work; but.she
must do the cooking, as it would break
their caste to eat food which had been
touched by person of lower caste than
themselves. They have two regular
meals day. These consist of rice and
different kinds of curry. The first meal
is about half past ten The morning, the
other at ten at night. Between times,
however, they eat various kinds of fruit
and sweet meats. When the food is
ready, it is sent into the mems apart
ment, where he and his unmarried sons
over fourteen, sitting on mat on the
floor, devour such portions as they like,
all eating with their fingers from one
dish. The remainder is then sent to
the mother and the rest to the children.
Their cooking vessels generally, and
also those from which they eat and
drink, are of brass, kept well cleaned
and bright.

The successor of George d. Prentice is
hardly less extraordinary man, though
in a different way. Mr.. Watterson is
quite as blind as Prescott, the historian,
and does all his work, an incredible
amount, by the aid of an amanuensis,
writing leaders, literary reviews, musi-
cal and social criticisms, paragraphs,
and other matter that enter into news
paper work at the rate of three or four
columns day. Like Mr.. Halstead, he
is his own managing editor, and sees his
paper to press. Hei is. perhaps, the best
amateur pianist in the country, playing
the music of Sehumann and Chopin ex-
quisitely, but be got his musical educa-
tion, like the rest, by the ear, having
the music read to him, committing it to
memory, and then going to the piano
and playing it off. He is about thirty
years old, quick i'll his movements, but
reserved and cold.

EE Coughs Apostrophe to Water,

The follow ing most eloquent "Apos-
tropbe to Water" by Paul Denton, a
Methodist preacher, is used by John B.
Cough, in his temperance lecture as
argument. It is, indeed, a consecutive
uurst of the beautiful, thrilling and
truthful passages, such as can rarely be
found in such words:
Look at this, ye. sons of earth! Be
hold it, 1t is a beverage that was
Urewed by the hands of the Almighty
Himself! Not in q simmering still of
smoking fires, chOked with poisonous
gases, and surrounded by the stencil of
sickening odors and rank corruption,
does our Father in Heaven prepare the
precious essence of life, the pure cold
water, but in the green glade and grassy
dell, where the deer wander and the
child loves to play, there God brews it:
and down in the valley, where the foun-
tains murmur, and the rills sing, and
high upon the mountain tops, where
storm clouds brood and the thunders
crash, and far away on the wide sea,
where the hurricane howls music and
the big waves rolls the chorus sweeping,
the march of God, there he breWs it
that beverage of health-giving water.
And everywhere it is q thing of beauty;
glimmering in the summer rain, shining
IN the ice germ, sill the trees all seem
to be furued into living jewels; spread
ing living veil over the setting sun, or
in white gauZe around the midnight
moon; sporting in the cataracts, sleep
ing in the glaciers, dancing in the hail
showers; folding its curtain softly
around the windy world, and weaving
the many colored iris-whose warp is
IN the rain drops of the earth-whose
wool is IN the sunbeams of heaven; all
checked over with celestial flowers by
the mystic hand of fraction, still al
ways it is beautiful-that blessed life
water. No poison bubbles on the
brink; its foam brings no sadness or
murder.

How many a kiss has been given-how

many looks of hate-how many prom
Use has been broken-how many heart

A week is a life. A week is history.
A week marks events of sorrow or of

Go home to those you love, man of toll,

Woman in India.

A woman in India, after marriage, is
allowed to see no man in her husbands
family except her husbands younger
brothers or nephews, those who were
little boys when she entered the family.
She must never be seen by her father
.in-law, or any male member of the
family who was over fourteen when she
entered the house. In her fathers FAM
lily, she may be seen by all the men there
fathers, unoles, cousins. These last
are always called brothers, and there is
never any inter- marriages even in the
most remote degree consanguinity.-
The zenana, which is the part of the
house reserved for the woman, is rarely
entered by the husband during the day,
being considered highly improper; but
if, by any chance, a man should enter
his wife's or mothers room during the
day, he stops outside the door leading
