SUICIDE OF WOMAN on GREEN ISL
AND. On Saturday afternoon the wife
of William Harrison, an engineer on the
Rensselaer, and Saratoga railroad, enter
ed LYONS drug store on Green Island,
and asked for three ounces of laudanum.
Mr.. L. waited upon her, and ha6passed
the drug over to her, when she inquired
how much would be necessary to kill a
person. "Oh, about half of that, said
Mr.. L. "Well, " said the woman, THAT
is Just what l am going to do" The re-
mark made such an impression upon the
druggist that he went and informed the
police of the occurrence. Mrs. Harri-
son passed directly to her home on the
Island, and swallowed about two ounces
of the laudanum. Her husband entered
almost Immediately afterward, and OBJ
serving the bottle In her hand asked
what it was "Laudanum," said She
Il have drank it." Mr.. II. did not at
first pay any particular attention TO the
matter, suppOsing that she was joking,
but in a little while the stupOr which
seized the woman told him too plainly
what she had done. and he sent for DR..
Monroe, who came as soon as possible,
but could do nothing for her relief. DR..
Burton was also sent for, but was IN
able to render the slightest assistance.
During the evening Mrs. Harrison died.

FUNERALS. - The Catholic Bishops
have a good deal of trouble in regulat-
ing funerals. At the Cathedral in Roch-
ester, last Sunday, Bishop McQuade in
formed his people that hereafter not
more than twelve hacks would be al
lowed in funeral procession. Those
who come with a greater number would
find the cemetery gates locked. Nor
would funerals be allowed on Sunday If
they could be conveniently arranged for
another day. Priests will not be per-
mitted. in funeral discOurses to indulge
in any eulogy OF the deceased. Those
who did not ike these regulations, the
bishop said, might have their funerals
outside the walls of the church.

The crowd of disappointed Office seek

The crowd of disappointed Office seek
ers join in the cry, and now are hurrah-
inc for Greeley that he may take the
place of Gen. Grant, as President of this
Great Republic. Well, | have not for
gotten Greeley's agrarianism, socialism
and the many other isms he has tried to
indoctrinate the American people with,
and am the last man to vote to ex-
change such man as Gen. Grant as our
President, with all his honesty, sincerity,
firmness and ability, his love for the
principles of the Republican party, his
faithful administration of the govern
ment upon the Republican platform of
1868, and in obedience to the Federal
Constitution, his high moral character,
and his love for the Union he helped so
materially to save, say | am unwilling
to exchange this man as President for
such man as Horace Greeley. | can
not conceive scarcely a single element
of character that Mr. Greeley possesses,
that goes to qualify him for the Office of
President.
His instability, his logged stubborn
ness, his Feasibility, his want(of good
sound common sense and judgment,
render him to my mind totally unfit for
the Office of President, and [ hope the
day will never arrive when he shall dis
place such a man as Ulysses S. Grant.
/ cannot believe the American people
are so insane as to commit political sri-
eide. | only ask that patriotism, not
passion may rule the hour If General
Grant has proved false to the principles
of the Republican party put him out of
office, but in displacing him, don't put
in man who has turned his back upon
the party, and its long cherished princi-
plies, and who prides himself upon his
treachery and glOries in his shame. Bot
Gen. Grant has not proved false to his
friends, his party or Republican princi-
Piles. We can therefore trust him.
Amid all the detraction and abuse pour
ed upon him by Sumner, SchurZ and
Greeley, he is unmovcd, attending faith
fully to the high duti9s of his office,
Jealous for the honor and glory of our
fair heritage, that it suffer no reproach
through his fault, and trusting with con-
fidence to the American people to vindi-
cate him from the unjust aspersiOnS cast
by designing demagOgues upon his per-
sOnal character, and his honest efforts to
promote the glory and honor, perpetuity
and power of our beloved country, with
its glorious constitution as once the pride
of all true Americans, and the admira-
ton of the civilized world
