SUICIDE has become such popular way
Of shutting off" the mortal coil " of
life, and seems to be so highly relished by
the bon-ton of society as well as the "rag-
tag and bob-tail," that it would be an act
of benevolence on the part of some scien-
tific gent, if he would write book on the
subject and tell just how it is done. Let
it be known which is the most expeditions,
the most graceful and the most popular
way of doing 1t, as well as the surest meth
cd. Too many persons attempt suicide
and are deprived of the accomplishment
of their pet object, by not understanding
when, where and with how much force to
strike. These are matters for discussion,
and if some man posted in the matter
will just inform the world what he knows
of suiciding, he may strike popular cur
rent, and his book will no doubt meet with
unprecedented success. Besides, he will
be rendering favor to large number of
persons who seem to desire information on
the subject.

A PLEASANT TRIP.

If we were going to advise any one in
reference to short pleasant trip this hot
weather, we would advise them by all
means. to go to Loudon, and thence down
the river to Kingston or lockwood. The
steamer Hugh Martin leaves Loudon every
morning at daylight, arrives at Kingston
about seven o'clock, goes to lockwood, and
returns to LOudon the same day. Under
the efficient management of the polite
Allison brothers, it is a pleasant craft to
travel on, and the delightful river breezes
and beautiful scenery make desirable re-
treat from the dust and heat of city life.
We partook of a breakfast and supper on
this boat on Friday, which would put to
shame many crafts of much higher pre-
tension.

JEFFERsoN's LAST HOURS.

Of the death of Thomas jefferson, Hay-
Iper's Magazine for August has the follow
ing:
His parting interview with his family
on the I'd OF july was calm and compof ed
He told his daughter that in an old pocket
book in certain drawer she would find
something intended for her. This proved
to be these few lines of verse, composed by
himself:
A DEATH-BED ADIEU TIL j. To NJ r.
Life's visions are vanished, its dreams are NO
more;
Dear friends of my bosom, why bathed in
tears7
/ go to my fathers; 1 welcome the shore
Which crowns all my hopes, or which bu-
ries my cares.
Then farewell my dear, my loved daughter,
adieu
The last pang of my life is in parting from you.
Two seraphs await me long shrouded in death
will bear them your love on my last parting
breath.
To his grandchildren he spoke many
words of calm and serene wisdom, impress
ing upon them admonitions, the cardinal
points of which were ITO pursue virtue, be
true and faithful" One of the children,
lad Of eight years, seemed somewhat be-
wildered. George" said the old patri-
arch, with smile, "does not understand
what all this means" Then, when all had
been said, Jefferson murmured, lowly but
audibly, those words which have murmurd
through mems hearts for eighteen centu-
ries: Lord, now lettest Thou thy SER
want depart in peace"

THE trucking youth who manages the
Press and Herald has been half way apollo
giving for the brutal mob in New York, in
the first place diligently seeking to make
the impression that it wasn't much of q
mob, and in the second place, by trying to
show the soldiers fired unnecessarily and
are therefore responsible for the death of
the few unfortunate, unoffending persons
who lost their lives. While sharing in
the regret for their fate, we cannot help
but thinking they were themselves to
blame, for appealing where they ought to
have known their lives were in imminent
danger. AS to the action of the soldiers
the New York Times justly says:
1.-Two soldiers were killed and several wound
ed, before the Ninth Regiment began the return
FIRE, which caused the death of some thirty peo-
plea few of whom were unofendng specta-
tors, but the majority of qchont acre, euidentLy
nae1. lcto lCere there Nth the deadliest intent
It is easy to talk of men standing cody to be
shot down by an unseen foe. Taking all the
circumstances into account, no reasonable man
can blame our militia for turning upon that
mob whose next move, for all they knew to the
volley from the pistols they had been allowed
to have openly served out to them. The blood
of the innocent slaughtered yesterday, rests
upon the head of the men who, up til the last
moment, confined their repressive measures to
the party which was threatened, aud not only
tolerated but encouraged the D1urderOuS prepa-
rations of the agqreSSors. ...

ATTEMPTED MURDER OF JOHN ToBIN,
burgess OF SuENANDoAH,-We copy
the following particulars on the attempt
upon the life of Mr.. ToBIN, on Sunday
morning last, from the Shenandoah
Herdld:
"Mr. ToBIN lives in Centre street,
near the Lehigh Valley railroad depot,
aud while he is agent for the brewers
of Pottsville, he also carries on a bottel-
ing establishment. AS Chief Burgess
he has made himself particularly OBJ
noXious to the bad characters in our
town, By his prompt aud efficient per-
fOrmance of his duty. He was elected
Burgess at the last election without op.
position, both parties voting for him.
At one O'Clock Sunday morni ng, after
his place was locked up, there was n
| knock at the door. Young ToBIN
opened it after finding out who was
outside, to admit JOHN HURLEY who
| wanted half II dozen bottles Of Cronk
beer. Mr.. ToBrN supplied him and lit
him to the door from which pair of
steps leads to the pavement; while
lighting him down the steps, and when
HURLEY was part way down, shot
was fired ut Mr.. TOBIN from the street,
and he halloed that he was shot, and
his son caught him in his arms, and
while holding him recognized JOHN
O'BRIEN in the street about twenty feet
off, who said, "Come on, that is the
last of him." Mr.. ToBIN is badly shot
about the face, shoulder and breast, the
gun having been loaded with No. shot,
buckshot and pieces Of bullets. Drs
KEARN and REAGAN we're immediate.
) ly called TO attend him. He is expected
to recover.
: O'BRYAN was arrested on Sunday
: morning in MARrI's cellar, on Centre
Street, with gun in his possession, BY
) Constable EDWARD MONAGHAN. II,
, had hearing at once before Squire

THE Special Business meeting ot the
Y. NJ. G. A., which was held in their
rooms on Thursday evening OF last
week, was of more than usual interest
1t was called for the purpose OF elect

ganization than has heretofore existed.
Col. KNoRR was called to the Chair,
aud conducted the usual devotional eN-
ercises, after which a Committee, APP
pointed at previous meeting, reported
n form of Constitution for the Assocla-
ton This was rendered necessary
from the fact that no properly verified
Constitution could be found. The Con-
tltution reported by the Committee
was adopted without discussion. The
Association then proceeded to the elec
ton of officers as required by the Goa
stitution just adopted, with the iollow'
ing result: a,

dent, Geo. Elwell Recording Secreta

SULLIVAN & ERIE Il. R.-We under
stand that on the 18th inst, party OF
railroad officials from the Erie Hallway
and Lehigh Valley, made trip r'a
Sullivan Il Erie r. II. to the mines that
are located some six miles from Du-
shore ia Sullivan county.
Their report upon the Railroad and
mines is very favorable. The former
is pronounced well constructed, while
the coal from the latter is dwe!t upon in
glowing terms. MCssrs. MERCUR "
JACKSON must feel gratiiied that the
great work is so near completion. By
the lst proXimo, it is supposed tho last
spike will be driven. The mines are
being quite extensively worked, and
gaugways leading far under the cover
of the mountain are being pushed for
warl with vigor. The schutes which
are capaclous and very substantial, are
nearly finished, and over one hundred
good double tenement dwellings arc
erected in close contignity to the coil
