There ID ) charge of murder pending
in the London courts against man for
permitting himself to be shot. The cir
cpmstances oS the case are extraordi-
nary in all respects. Two young Ger
man gentlemen Of respectable family
visited Londsn, and in four days man
aged to expend the sum Of $4,000 in
the pursuit OF pleasure. At the end Of
that time, having exhausted theiEmoney,
they came to the conclusion that there
was nothing Left to, than worth living
for, and agreed to die together. A few
lines of farewell YER. written to some
girls who had assisted in their revelries,
after which they locked their door and
stripped themselves for death. One Oh
the young men named Paul May, stood
up, and the. other shot him through
the breast. As May Tell to the
floor bis companion finished bis work by
shooting himself Through, the heart

Of recovery, and when he is GONZALEZ
cent he is TO be taken before the au-
liberties to stand his trial for wiifuAy
numbering the companion who shot
him, in accordance with the verdict
rendered by the coroners jury which
investigated his case, as in England,
where two persons mutually agree o
commit suicide togetb er, and only one
dies, the survivor is held guilty of the
murder of the one who died. Some of
tho greatest English judges have ruled
that such is tbeilaw The last trial OF
ibis kind occurred in the Old Bailey in
1888, cwher Benjamin Allison was in
dicted for the>wibul murder Of Emma
Crikps,,a woman with whom he had
been living. The two had agreed to
commit suicide together, and drank
three parts of cup Of laudanum each.
The large quantity produced vomiting
in the man and he survived. These
facts were proven on the trial, and the
man was convicted Of numbering the
woman, and sentenced 10 death.

A Young Man Who; Meant Well

A Young Man Who; Meant Well.
From the Hartford Post. September III
A young aud energetic gentleman Of
this city. noted for the promptness and
decision with which he always acts in
cases Of emergency, took the train. on
the Hartford, Providence and Fishkill
road for Waterbury, where he had bust.
ness to transact. When the train
reached Plsinville number of passen.
gers alighted az usual. In the seat op.
posite our gentleman friend were a lady
and her boy, a little fellow five or six
years OF age. As the cars stopped the
lady peered out Of the window, rose
hastily, seized the boy by the hand and
walked hurriedly with him to the rear
of the car. The two had scarcely
passed out Of sight before our ener geti
young friend not ced that the boys hat,
tinowhistle, whip and other toys we're
lying on the seat which had just been
vacated. The train started, and hastily
concluding that the lady in her hurry
to get off at the station had unwittlpgly
left them, our friend rushed across the
aisle, and gathering up the hat and
toys, slung them out Of the window. A
change came over the spirit OF his
dreams as the lady, a moment or two
later. came up the aisle, leading her boy
by the hand. She didn't stop at Plain.
vile. The laugh that was heard in that
car when the lady returned made our
young friend sick. He apologized to
the lady. explained how be came to
throw the things out of the window
and went back to his seat in frame OF
mind anything but happy.

Upox the whole, our President quite
keeps up with bis eminent rival in, at
least the number Of his addresses to
the people. But, not being able to
speak in public. he resorts to the inter
view and the letter. II was in an "in-
teryiew," furnished to the Herald, that
he made his unlueky assault on CARL
SeHURz, as seeking patronage from him.
In reply to which Mr.. ScHURz related
the offer to him Of patronage as the
price of his support Of the San Domingo
Job. Another " interview gave the
Presidents denial, but an appeal to the
witness. General ALFRED PLEAsosToN,
completely sustained Mr., ScHURz. This
week we have had two letters,from the
President One to the Pittsburgh Mill.
sary Convention, applaudiag just what
be had condemned in 1866, and another
to help General DIX, or rather to help
himself, in the State election in New
York. It is a novel and Indecent thing
to find President Of the United States
writing, or, at least, signing virulent
political epistle, to influence State
election. DIX replies that he can say
nothing till he consults his wife. This
sis q wise reserve. The result of the
conference between the two highly re-
spectacle old women has not yet been
nnblished.
