An Englishmsn, Henry F. Strickland
was yesterday found dead in his room in
the Barrett House. on Main street.
When discovered he was sitting in a
chair with his hat and clothes on, and
resting his head on a table, on which
was a quantity of writing paper, his hand
holding pen as If he had just been
writing A soda-water bottle containing
a solution of bydro-chloral was found on
the table, and facts developed at the in
quest held by Squire Miller showed
that his death had been caused
by this poisonous drug. Strickland
at the time of his death was working at
Hollenbergs dyeing establishment, and
it is said that since he lost his wife last
Saturday he has been morose and melan-
choly, and his grief at her loss is given
as the cause of his rash act in taking
his own life. He was buried by friend.

There is but little Transporting in mon

wisely concluded that 3C94 y cent on

who generally depend upon the banks
for overdraft are now compelled to seek
other sources for accommodation, aud
for once are being taught an economical
lesson. Those depositors who, during
the busy season, carry large balances
are accommodated at the banks with
such amounts as is necessary fer imme-
date wants, bat polite mo" is the reply

This morning negro named George
Thompson, who had engaged passage on
the Pat Cleburne, lost his ticket and APP
piled at the Office for another in its place.
BE was very imperious and insulting in
his demands, and when the clerk, Mr..
Neal Booker, demonstrated with him he
became very insulting and declined to
leave the cabin. Mr.. Booker walked
from behind the counter and collared
the insolent fellow with view to enforc-
ing his demand, when the negro drew a
knife and stabbed him in the thigh, in
flicting two painful flesh wounds. George
was soon after arrested by officer Dough
erty and lodged in the station-house.
He will have a hearing before Squire
Winters at two o'clock tomorrow after
noon.
