A STRANGE CONFESSIONAL dispatch
from Richmond to the Sun on Friday
stated that Mr. F. w. HannewiDkle,
The German coneul in Richmond, had
received the confession OF murder
committed in Virginia in 1868 by a
German named Rudolph Wilhelm
Vallratb, now confined in a military
prison in Strasbourg, Germany. The
victim was an Irishman named Brown,
and the deed was committed near
Fredericksburg. The confession OF
VaIlrath ia witnessed 10y government
officers and forwarded through the
regular official channels. ValIrath re-
turned to Germany in 1869. Notwlth-
standing come internal evidences Of
truth in the story the Richmond papers
express the opinion that it is q shrewd
scheme OF the prisoner to gain his lib
erty, expecting that he will be deliver
ed up to the state authorities under the
extradition treaty between the United
States and Germany.

A WIFE ATTEMPTS HER OWN DESTRUCTION IN FIT
OF MELANCHOLY.
One of those sad and heartrending occurrences
which carry blight and gloom to family in the
uutimely death OF a wife and mother, happened
near Bay View, Cecil county, Md, yesterday.
The victim in this case, however, was still alive
at last accounts, but is not expected to recover.
Some four years ago, Mrs. Hannah j. Muir
ray, wife OF John @. Murray, brother
in-law to T. Y. deNormandie, OF this city,
was prostrated by q severe attack OF ty-
phoid fever. For some time she fingered be-
tween life and death. her mind failing with her
body and her brain crazed ia the deliriousnesB Of
her disease. Almost miraculously she was rails
ed, as it were, from her death-bed, but her rea-
son returned not with her strength, and for a
long time after her recovery feeling Of melan-
choly brooded over herspirit. In 1t she had con-
stant desire to take her own life, and would have
done 30 had it not been for the careful watch
which was set over her by her family and friends
who placed all'instruments OF death beyond her
reach. Finally however, she was believed to
have entirely recovered, and often whilst in her
right mind she had narrated her feelings whilst
oppressed with melncholy-her ardent destre to
terminate her life, and her firm intention TO do
so upon the first opportunity.
Yesterday however, it seems that this fit OF
melancholy came over Ler again, and as her fam
lily supposed she was entirely restored in body
and mind they had ceased to watch her, and the
long-sought opportunity was affordes her for
putting an end to her life, and she embraced it.
Seizing a small gun, which bad been loaded to
shoot hawk and thoughtessly set away in this
condition, she placed the muzzle near Vita
part OF the body and pulled the hi ger, but
death was not instantaneous. She was still liv-
ing at an early hour, this morning, and able to
| communicate with her friends about the matter
but little hope is entertained OF her recovery.

Miss Cushman is playing very fine engage

acted better in her life than now when she is an
old woman and the " hey-dey of the blood y"

But ''age cannot stale, nor custom wither, her

Meg Merriiies, rush on the scene and take that
almost historic attitude in her first appearance,
and IL gave me the same thrill 1t did twenty
