Suicide.

MEMPHIS, May 25.-For a week past
detectives have been at work to discover the
whereabouts of Adrian Bartlett, carriage
maker, who had suddenly disappeared; our
ing his residence here he had borne an un-
blemished reputation, and was engaged 20
a respectable young lady. No cause could
be assigned for his disappearance. The de-
tectives could find no clue, till last evening
his body was found under the bluff, near
Fort Pickering. A pistol was lying by bis
side, and every indication pointed to the
fact that he had committed suicide. lnhis
pocket was found card issued by Huron
Lodge L. o. o. F., Goodrich, Ontario, to
Alexander Boyd, from which it is inferred
that he had for some reason changed his
name. His body was taken in charge by
the Odd Fellows.

NO CHOLERA IN MEMPHIS.

From the Memphis Appear, May 20
Whenever the prevalence of cholera EN-
ders sniourning in Memphis dangerous, the
AppeaE, thoroughly acclimated, and defy
ing all dangers and even death itself, can
well afr yrd TO tell the unyarnisbed truth.
Three most prominent citizens of Memphis
died-one Of them ofthe remote effects o;
a surgical operation; another Of chronic
disease that became acute; and third OF ex-
posure in the swamps. The very p-Omin
ence of these exc llent gentlemen, univer-
sally known as they were, and their CON
current deaths begat alarm, and then u
went sbroad-the old story Of three black
crows-snd at Holly Springs We have 1t
that Memphis is dying, and in Somervilie
that the cholera RACES. The weather is e&-
cesslvely hot. People come to the city aud
indulge in hideously hot whisky, and thon
in ice-coid beverages; and the.a is an unfor-
tunate class that eat fish that may be cook
ed forty times ard is again raw whenever
cold. They deVour stale vegetables that
are parboiled in whisky and solar heat after
being swallowed. These epicurean phaos-
opbefs sometimes die very suddenly, as
they should. And then the story again
gathers volume and force, and wings it way
across the country, like great BIRD OF evil
omen, tripping its pallii wings, and crosk-
ing, like Virgil's siRiStrG cOr1air, and the
people are frightened, like bArnysrd fowls;
and we have before US, as above stated, a
clucking letter from the old rooster at Holy
Springs. There is Just as much sickness,
in proportion to the numbers of people and
their density of colIocation in Marshall or
Fayette counties in Memphis. II there
be difference against Memphis, it occurs
in districts of the city in which people are
too densely packed together in little cabins.
But there is no other cholera in Memphis
than that which exists here every year from
the same causes, in the very same localities
among the very same people. Moreover,
whenever we believe that the Asiatic ehol-
era pervades the city we will say go at az
cost,
