TERRIBLE SUICIDE.
4 Woman Deliberately Lays her
Neck upen the Rails and is'Bs.
hooded By the Cars.

Last Monday morning. at about the
hour Of Ave, Mr.. z. 8. Stout, who resides
north Of tho railroad, started to go to his
! daily labor, and when crossing the track
some rods east Of tho station, just beyond
the cattle yards, he discovered, lying close
to the rail on the south side, what at
drst no supposed was bundle Of clothes
mischievously placed there to startle the
psssers.by. Approaching it, however,
he was Mortified to find it the body Of q
woman, with her neck lying across the
rail and her head, completely severed
from the body, lying in the inside of the
track The body was very lightly clad
All tho limbs and feet, which were with
OF shoes, were carefully drawn up and
covered by the folds Of the dress. Mr..
Stout gave the alarm, and soon crowds OF
horror-stricken people came to view the
terrible spectacle.
Tho body was soon recognized as that
Of Mrs. Lucy H. Fuller, daughter Of Mr..
s. B. Bailey, the marble worker on Chat.
ham St, with whom she and her children
had been living: her husband being at
work in Van Buren, county, in this State.
She had completed arrangements to join
the latter. having shipped her household
goods, and was to have left on the 101S
o'clock train of the morning of her tragic
death.
She has been subject to periods Of
temporary insanity and it was in one Of
these. undoubtedly, that she deliberately
sacrificed her life. She retired to rest at
the usual hour, on Sunday night,
with her little son Of six years, and ap-
parently in her usual state of mind
From facts since elected, it is supposed
that she arose in the middle of the night,
dressed herself in q single garment and,
without covering for head or feet, went
out to meet her fate by the wheels Of the
2:o5 A. NJ. eastern.bound freight train.
Coroner Hunt was summoned, but the
case admitting Of no doubt regarding its
being one Of suicide, no inquest was held.
The deceased was about 81 years of ago
and bore an excellent reputation as u
retiring, amiable woman. Her marriage
was not happy one, and this, together
with approaching maternity, is supposed
to have conspired to unfix her mind
She was buried Wednesday morning.

CATTLE STEALING The brothers Nc.
Kcnzie, who lives near the Hospital
south west of town, some time since lost
o pair of oxen, and last week found them
in possession of Mr.. Corbin, farmer
near Vinton, who had purchased them of
two young men, whom he described. On
this description and other circumstances
pointing in the same direction, one Of
the McKenzies filed information against
Marcus Phelps. the son Of widow in
this city, young man not more than
20 years of age A warrant was issued
and placed in the hands Of Marshal
Handy, who arrested young Phelps at
his mothers house, on Tuesday morning.
lie was arraigned before Esq. Roszell, o.:
Wednesday, and. Mr.. Corbin being
present, was identified by him as one Of
the men of whom he had purchased the
cattle. Phelps thercupon waived ex-
animation, and was committed IN default
Of 5000 bail. While ON his way to Jail
he was re-arrested on complaint Of John
Sullivan, for the same offense. Mr.. Sui.
Ivan lost pair of cattle and found them
At C0rbin's place, who had purchased
them of tho same parties. Upon rear
raignment the same proceedings wero
had as in the first case, and Phelps was
sent to Jail with an additional 5000 over
his head.
There having been quite number OF
cattle stolen in this vicinity and dis
posed of in the same manner to different
parties during the past year and, suspi-
cion points almost unerringly to Phelps
and his Accomplishment yet arrested
AZ the thieves. The evidence seems
conclusive against Phelps. and he win
probably do the State some service at
Fort Madison.

organization, full Of life. tenacious Of its
principles and integrity, possessing a
glorious record and inspiriting traditions,
proud Of its past and hopeful Of its flu.
ture; but which, gangrened by treason
in its ranks, and debauched by the lusts
of it's leaders, fell from its high estate,
became the reproach Of its friends and
the derision of its enemies, and at last
ended its wretched career in the act of
debasing itself in the dust as the stepping
stone of its most relentless enemy. 1t

est Democrats in this county. 1t express
SEES the feelings Of large class in this
vicinity over tho surrender of the party
to Horace Greeley:
INDEPENDENCE, July II, 1872.
Mr. ED1ToR:-With all due respect for
the dead, have selected text, hymn,
and epitaph to be used over the last re-
mains of the Democratic party, AZ they
are consigned to their long home:
The hypocrite's hope shall perish when
he is detected in his hypocricy.
Ny thoughts on awful subjects roll
Democracy and its death.
What horrors seize the guilty souls
OF those who stopped its breath.
Lingering along these mortal shores.
They've made long delay.
Now, like Hood, with rapid force,
Death sweeps the fools away.
How swift and dreadful they descend
Down to the fiery coast.
There, lost the chance to make amend,
They only count the wretched cost.
