DR.. Livingstone Again.
New York, August 17.-The Lon
don Ne,ts of August 10th says: We
publish a summary of the dispatches
received from DR.. Livingstone. These
papers cover q period Of time from
November 10, 1s70'to February 20,
1872, They give full accounts Of the
horrors of the slave trade in Central
Africa, and supply explanations Of the
privations to which Livingstone was
subjected by the dishonesty of the
agents employed to convey supplies
to him at Zanzibar. They furnish
some accounts of. the progress of his
work of discovery, the latter hardly so
full as might have been expected. Not
the least interesting part of these dis
patches, are the passages which tell Of
the meeting with Mr.. Stanley. There
is also in the letter to Mr.. Bennett and
the Foreign Office, the same evidence
of q CHEEKY spirit frightened up into
exhiliration by tho unexpected meet
Ing with one Of the explorers Of our
own race, under such strange circum-
stances and after so long an isolation.
If the letter to- the Herald contained
any outbursts Of somewhat exuberant
buoyancy, which in the minds of some
readers cast a doubt upon the authcn-
ITCHY, there are abundant evidences of
the same elastic temperament in the
dispatches received by the Foreign
Office.

aUICIDR.

Two women Of the town committed
suicide at Rose Benjamin's place, cor
ner D street and Sutton Avenue. Vir-
ginia, yesterday afternoon, They were
known as Mrs. Thompson and Hattie
Willis. They had evidently formed
the resolution to die together, and
thus get rid of all their worldly trou-
bles, and to this end they procured
what is thought to have been a mix
ture Of morphine OF laudanum and
chloroform, and retiring to a lower
room Of the house, where they would
not be likely to be disturbed, took the
fatal dose. Both have attempted sui
eide before on one or two occasions,
but were saved through prompt treat
ment. This time, however, they were
determined that nothing should pre-
vent them. The following note was
found in the bedroom Of Mrs. Thomp-
son :
| hope we have made a sure thing Of
1t this time. as We are tired OF living.
Goodbye, everybody.
HATTIE WILSON,
KATIE rHoMPsoN.
An unusual noise proceeding from
the room where they were, attracted
the attention Of the other occupants Of
the house, resulting in their being
found q little alter 2 +. N. lying upon
the floor, apparently just as they had
fallen when oyerpowercd by the fatal
poison. Abundant medical assistance
was ut once summoned, and the doc
tors did all possible to save the lives Of
the two unfOrtunates, but without sue
cess, for the youngest, Hattie Willis,
died about 5 o'clock +. NJ. She was
between 16 and II years Of age, and
came to Virginia from San Francisco
n few months ago with the Amelia
Dean Minstrel troupe. Her real name
Is said to b. Belle Bateman, FROM
Utica, New York, where she has q
brother residing. Mrs. Kate Thomp-
son died about half past II o'clock.
She was only q years Of age, and was
also an American woman. She is said
to have had considerable trouble with
her husband. aud vas two or three
weeks ago employed waiting upon the
tables and otherwise working at a
clearinghouse on the Divide. Since
then she has adopted the mode Of life
from which her sensitive soul sought
and found reliefat last In death. May
the eternal rest and peace so earnestly
sought by these two weary ones be
kindly accorded to them in the great
hereafter, through the infinite mercy
of the Almighty Creator, their truest
friend.

QUESTIONS ANswERED.-The ques-
ton has often been asked, why goods
in the clothing line cannot be sold
as cheap in Gold Hill as in Virginia,
but from the f~iattering encouragement
Reinstein IL Co. have received since
they started business here, the question
seems answered, that by small profits
and quick sales and a large assortment
of stock to choose from, the trade can de
al home. Hoping a continuance OF
the patronage heretofore received, they

Marriage.

You man don't make fool of your
self. ST nature has not already saved you
that trouble. Getting married is Sc
rious thing. When you visit young
lady at night, after business hours, and
find in the parlor kerosene lamp with the
chimney smoked up. and dirty, and, after
keeping you waiting an hour, the lady
makes her appearance, dressed a ta mode.
you may set it down in your mind that
the said young lady is not fit for your
wife, She may dance elegantly, round
dance, square dance, polka, mazurka,
lanrcrs, or what not but she will not keep
your house decent. She may sing like a
nightingale; but she will give you dirty
plate to eat out of. She will be almost
certain not to know how to spell. A
slocenly woman rarely has tolerable edu-
cation.
Whatever may be your present view of
the matter of female education. and how
ever you may talk n0ac against learned
women, it will not be pleasant to you to
find out, after marriage, that your wife
cannot write her mother tongue in toler-
able decent style, and that, in her note to
the grocer, she spells sugar with an h
between the and the u. 1t is not always
safe to trust to appearances but you may
know that neatness and cultivation are
commonly near of kin, and that dirt and
bad spelling are apt to go together. Be-
sides, those women who do not learn to
be neat during childhood and girlhood rare
ly learn in latter life, and the girl who
at eighteen years of age, spells balance
with two rs. probably never learns to Drop
the superfuous letter.
John Randolph used to say. that the
man of refinement and culture, who mar

raise her up, would find too late that he
was mistaken for she would always pall

Help YOURSELF

Fight your own battles, Hoe your own
row. Ask no favors of any one, and
you'll succeed Eve thonsand times better
than one who is always beseeching some
ones influence or patronage. No one
will evcr, help you as You can help your
self, because no one will be SO heartily
interested in your affairs. The first step
will not be such long one, perhaps; but
carving your own way up the mountains
YOU make one lead to another, and stands
firm in that while you chop still another
out.
Men WHO have made fortunes are not
those who had FIVE thousand dollars given
them to start with, but boys who have
