Sudden Dedth.-On last Saturday eve
ming, Mrs. Cook, wife Of Mr.. VIM. Cook,
one of our most respectable citizens, was
discovered, about o'clock, by one of her
neighbors, lying on her face with young
baby under her. Assistance was had and
medical aid called in. Although not
thought to be in dying condition when
taken up, death came to her relief at about
O'Clock. Appoplexy of the heart is sup
posed to have been the cause. She leaves a
husband and three children.

to use the name of the Manchester Colored
Baptist church in the excursion to West
Point on yesterday the 9th, and hope no
one will even use the name OF this church

They feel that this day was made for man
to worship God in his ''temple," and not
on steamboat excursions.

against the peace and dignity of the Com

A Letter from Port Royal, Caroline coun-
ty, informs us of the death of Mrs. KATY
GAINES, who died July 25th, 1871, at the
residence of her son-il-law in that town.
She was supposed to be the oldest inhabi-
tant of the State.
Her recollections of the county, and of
incidents of the Revolution of Seventy-six,
give evidence of great age. She is said to
have been past the age of one hundred and
eighteen years. She, like many of her
age, loved TO talk of the immortal Wash
ington, and claimed to have known him
well. st5qaFx
For fifty years she was devout Chris
tian and devoted member of the church.
For some days previous to her death she
positively refused to eat anything offered
her, assuring as the reason, that she had
been informed by the good Shepherd that
she had lived as long as she ought and
that being prepared and ready to go, she
was unwilling even to sustain life longer.
She was beloved by all who knew her,
white and black.
Calmly folding her arms she exclaimed
BLESSED Jesus, am coming now we
can walk in peace together" These were
her last words, giving comfort and consola-
ton to the Christian, all ofwhom are to fol-

SHE ATTEMPTS TO CUT HER THROAT
AND THEN TAKES ARSENIC.
The suicide mania which has been raging
in our city for some months past came near
finding another victim ON yesterday-this
time in the person of Mary Ware, bright
mulatto girl about eighteen years of age
The facts as we have learned are these
Mary, who resides in house of ill-fame on
Leight street, corner of Adams, has, fol
some days past, expressed herself as being
tired of life, without giving any particular
cause. On Friday last she obtained a
razor and attempted to cut her throat, but
was prevented by some of her friends and
again on yesterday she sent to drug store
and purchased quantity of arsenic,
which she swallowed, and then returned to
her chamber. s
When found she was in an almost insen-
BILE condition. DR.. Bright was called in,
and, after considerable time and trouble,
succeeded in restoring her to consciousness.
Last evening she was almost entirely recov-
cred. She still declares she will yet sue
ceed IN putting an end to her unbearable
life. She is from Chnstiansburg, and has
been in this city but about month, and
nearly ever since her arrival here she has
suffered from fits of melancholy.
We had hoped this epidemic had passed
entirely from us, but fear we will again be
called upon TO record the untimely end Of
other victims.

CANADA AT TRICHMOND.--The Canada
Farmer, noticing the meeting of the Amer
ican Pathological Society in this city, Sep
tember 6, says:
1t is to be hoped that the Agricultural
Association and the Fruit Growers Asso-
ciation of Ontario will be fully and ably
represented at this gathering, and that there
will be such a display Of the fruits of Cana
da on the occasion as will show the worthy
fruit growers of the American Pathological
Society that the Dominion of Canada can
grow as fine fruits as any part of the con-
tinent of America. We owe it to ourselves
and to the beautiful land in which we live,
to make its resources and capabilities as
widely known as possible, and to seize
upon every opportunity, and especial
ly such an opportunity as the pres
ent, to show the world that we can raise
the best apples that are to be found
on the globe. 1t is to be hoped that the
councils of the societies, whose charge it is
to foster the productive interests Of the
country, will make such appropriations of
their funds as may be necessary to secure
full collection of the fruits Of Ontario at
least, and send them in charge of some
competent persons to this convention.
From what we know of the quality and
perfection of our fruits, as compared with
those from any part of the United States,
we may safely court inspection, and feel
confident that we can lead the van.
We, too, hope that Ontario viii take
pains to make good this boast. We want
to see Kansas, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana,
Michigan, New England, the Middle and
Southern States comparing fruits with the
Domnionites. We will believe what we
see. Come on, Canada!

HOWEVER men may differ as to the
value of Democratic government, all will
agree that to be ruled by the present DEM
ocratic party in the city and the State of
New York is rather an expensive luxury.
In 1865, when the Republicans were in
power, the total expenditures for the gov
eminent of the State amounted to s4,76,-
s93.65, but in 1870, under Democratic mis-
rule, they increased to the enormous sum
of ss23, ,473.53, making difference of
$346, ,579.SS. And this is an earnest of the
kind of reduction in expenses promised by
some of our reformers. In the language of
the old books, it might be called a splendid
example of compound reduction ascending.
