delphia, Gen. VIM. F. Small and Captain
Powers, two well known military men OF that
city, were present, and after making addresses

thought their cash subscriptions were not
heavy enough One Cuban presented his horse

United States Attorney, ID. G.
Death Of Nr. w. G. BcstOr, Of Wash
ingtOn.

The telegraph yesterday reported the melan
choy death, by suicide, of Mr. W. q. Bestor
in Washington. He was connected with Mr.
Riggs bank, The Washington Republican
says:
On Tuesday last the deceased remarked tc
Mr. Riggs that he did not know how he coulc
ever manage the interests Of the bank without
the counsel and aid of the senior member oil the
firm. MIR. Riggs replied that in all probability
he would be with him for some time to come
at least five years longer--and then if they
should both retire, their sons could fill their
vacant places. YES" said the deceased, ''bu,
if | only had your head | should have DO fear
of my own capacity" This was the first man.
Hesitation that he had ever given Of his mis-
trust in his own ability 20 solve anticipated fl.
nancial problems, which were only the faDcies
of an overtaxed and disordered brain.
He had manifested particular anxiety with
10 the past week to settle his outstanding mer-
camille accounts.
Such were the only premonitory symptoms
which led to the sad tragedy which occurred in
his bed-chambcr yesterday morning, when, pre-
paratory to going to market, he had, IN part,
arranged his toilet and was about to shave,
when, suffering from temporary alteration of
mind, he raised a small Colts revolver which
laid near at hand, pointed it to his head inst
behind the ear, and discharged q single ball,
which entered the brain.
He fell to the floor, where he was found by
some of the members of the family who rushed
in from an adjoining room, astoDished al the
report of the pistol and ignorant of the cause.
After lingering about two hours, during which
time there was au entire suspension of con-
sciousness the dying man breathed his last be-
meath the gaze of the immediate family and
Mr.. Riggs, who had been summoned to his
bedside
Such was the termination of life on which
plenty smiled, and which peace and prosperity
united to reuder happy.
During the morning Coroner D. C.. Patterson
called at the residence of the family and viewed
the remains, but deemed 40 inquest unneces-
sary, and gave as his opinion that death was
caused while aboring under temporary insan-
ity.
He was a Washingtonian by birth and cduca
ton, and was ttty-one years of age when he
died.
While yet youth, in 1916, he entered the
banking house of r. w. Lathrop K Co., and

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER IA, 1873.

The Washington Star, speaking Of the death
of MIR. Bestor in Washington, says: ut fur
nishes another of the many cases in modern
times where physical illness, usually disorder
ed stomach, has had the effect to unhinge the
mind and cause men, apparently 10 the eDJoy'
meut of everything that can make life bright
and desirable. to conceive themselves so loaded
down by indescribable and unsupportable hor
rors, that only death can relieve them. He
wrote an affecting letter of farewell to his wife
expressing his dearest love, and telling in wilc
and broken sentences of the fearful phantasn
that held possession of his brain, and led him
irresistibly to death.

The Washington Chronicle says: "As the
more reliable information reaches the city the
feeling here grows more bitter toward the
Spanish authorities for the course they adopt
ed in dealing with those who were captured
with the Virginius The members of the
Cabinet, generally, are not backward in stating
that the acts of these parties are cruel, to say
the least Mr. Fish, however, is very careful
in his remarks"

A SINGULAR CHARACTER "A correspondent
of the Episcopal Register gives the following
sketch of a remarkable woman he met in
northumberland county, Pennsylvania Some
few miles from Shamokip lives character that
those manly people, the women S rights wo-
men," should certainly know, as she is decid-
edIy the champion. The singular being is some
seventy-two years of age, and is altogether the
most manly woman ever met with. A tenant
at-will, she has occupied for many years the
farm she cultivates with her own hands and
the assistance of hired laborers. She owns
about forty two head of cattle, some of which
I saw, and which are really fine stock. She
lives alone in her log cabin, her only compan-
ions being two shepherd dogs and her chickens,
many Of the latter sleeping under the same roof
with her, she calling them her children, and
training them up in the way they should 60,
SO as to cause the least inconvenience to her in
their habits of life. She is utterly fearless, and
with her dogs and gun, which she can use with
unerrlng aim, Lie Schiller is character that
few would care to trife with. Imagine, if you
clothes, with a soft hat, variousIy iudened,
upon her head, no coat, barefooted, and you
have this champion Of "women's rights be-
fore you. Wrinkled though her face is by the
storms and trials of many years, the strength
and activity OF man-woman of seveDty-two is
somewhat wonderful. Volube is hardly the
term suitable for the expression of her powers
of talk, and few men, however disposed for
such perfection, may boast themselves superior
to her on the score of profanity. Much and
varied has been my travel, and strange sights
and objects have seen and met with, but the
Hermit of Shamokin, with her supernatural
powers of tongue and limb, far surpasses any
thing of my previous experience.
