Last night, about IL O'Clock, Mr.. George

Eponded promptly. When be arrived CottreIl

f1cfed frightf1l cash on the left wrist, cutting
TO the bone and seyering the blood vessels, and
also inflicted one or two light cuts on his throat
The loss OF blood from the wound on the wrist

of the bureau o few cigars were found, as also a
small amount OF currency, and on a table near
the bed, the following. written in pencil:

THE DECEASED
was native OF Vermont, but resided in Wiscon-
sin for some years, and during the war was in
the army. Subsequently he was a clerk In the
First and Third Auditors Offices, and atterly in
the War department. He was about 80 wears of
age and married, but IL is said his marital rela-
tons were not pleasant Although usually of a
very lively disposition, at times his conduct
would be singularly quiet, and he would appear
respondent, and his friends now think that at
sucn times ne was temporarily insane.
The coroner, DIR. Patterson, " as called in, but
after hearing the statements OF the employees of
the house and the friends Of the deceased, did
not deem an inquest necessary. The friends of
the deceased took charge of the body, and will
communicate with his parents in regard to the
funeral.

COMMUNISM IN GEoRGIA.-The Augusta
(Ga.) COnstif1tton0liSt says a colony of fanatics
from Massachusetts have settled recently near
that place. Their Brigham Young is named
Joseph 4. Curry, hailing from Springfield
Mass. He Is invested with autocratlc powers
Not only does he officiate As chief executive
officer OF the community, but as judge in set
ting civil disputes, andlas Bishop or Pope in
regulating religious ones, and he practically
owns ali the property of his associates. Curry
has bought tract of land on the Washington
road, about eleven miles from Augusta. There
Is picturesque old mansion there, with a little
village OF surrounding cabins, and with useful
and pleasant adjuncts OF wood, water, and Gne
scenery in which Curry has enscOnced himself
while the cabins furnish homes for his followers.
The colony numbers at least fifty members
Apart from the community of goods, these
people believe in the Scriptures, as interpreted
by themselves-that baptism by water is super
fuous, the Holy Spirit acting in its stead that
Saturday is the true Sabbath; that Fanny
Wright and Horace Greeley are to be revered as
the typical female and male representatives of
communists doctrines; but that Curry Il the
great Apollo Of their immediate circle, and Is to
have his pick, whether OF chattels or anything
else desirable that may be contained therein. r.
