The Suicide Caused by sheridan's
Marriage,

The following is from the New York
Tribune: deputy Coroner Lee made
post mortem examination of the body
of Captain William H. Brown, of the
9th United States Cavalry, who COM
mitted suicide on Friday. At the time
Captain Brown was dying he spoke of
ring that he had swallowed. This ring
was found. 1t was of plain gold, with
raised, chased edges. On the inside of
the ring was engraved BE satisfied =
The story of the ring was not ascertain
cd, but it is believed that the ling had
been given to Captain Brown by the
daughter of an army officer 1t is said
that he had been much attached to the
young lady, ard it is believed that her
recent marriage had upset his mind, and
had been one of the predisposing caus-
es of his suicide. The inquest upon the
remains is to be held on Wednesday
next" On the same subject the New
York Star says: Captain William H.
Brown committed suicide on Friday by
cutting his throat, and he did it for
love. III rumors be true, he was enga-
ged to the young lady in New Orleans
who has since become the wife of Phil
Sheridan. She sent Brown ring with
BE satisfied upon it. Brown swallow
ed the ring, but was not satisfied. He
then cut his throat. Poor fellow"

Tweed Out OF the penitentiary.

ALBANY, June l5.--The Court of Ap-
peals has unanimously reversed the judg-
ment of the Supreme Court in the case Of
William NJ Tweed, and has ordered his
release.
The judges hold that the writ of habeas
corpus has always been construed in fa-
.vor OF and not against the liberty of the
subject and citizen, and the reading must
be the same whether the benefit of it is
invoked by the purest and best citizen of
the State or the greatest sinner and the
one most worthy of condi gn punishment.
The law is no respector of persons, and
suffers no man, be he guilty or innocent,
to be deprived of his liberty except by
due process of law,and the writ of habeas
corpus is as available even to the guilty as
to he whom the popular voice would con
denim, as it has proved against the COM
mitments by the King in the Council. In
the cumulative sentences the Judges
state:
"No warrant can be found for cumula-
tive punishment upon conviction cfsev.
eral offences charged in single indict-
ment, the aggregate punishment exceed
ing that prescribed by law for the grade
of offenses charged in the Indictment and
of which the accused is convicted. 1t
requires that the offences joined shall be
Of the same grade and subject to the same
punishment; that is, punishment that is
not only the same in kind out the same in
degree"

long strike is ended, ,and the miners Of the
Wilkesbarre and Lehigh companies made
an unconditional surrender through their
delegates last night,at meeting with Mr.

Transit or Venus Expedi,ion.

The geological results of the expedi-
ton of 1874 are beginning to come to
hand Mr.. Slater has brought from
Rodriguez an unrivalled collection of
the bones Of the extinct solitaire of that
island and is at present engaged in their
arrangement. The Rev. E. A. Eaton
has sent his first report from Kergue
lens Island to the Royal Society. pro
ceedings, xiii, pp 35l-356)- The only
land mammals found on the island were
the introduced goat and mouse, and the
expedition was attempting to add to the
fauna by turning down some rabbits
Two species of seals had been obtained,
and twenty-five or twerty-three of birds,
mostly albatrosses,p ,petrels and penguins
Fish were scarce, and the marine inyer
tebrata are passed over in the report as
having probably been more fully col
lected by the Challenger. BY far the
most interesting part of the fauna Of
Kerguelen's Land appears to be the eu
tomology. The insects collected be-
long to the orders Coleoptera, Colem-
hola, Diptera, and Lepidogtera; and Mr..
Eaton finds, in accordance with the oh,
servations of other naturalists on
oceanic islands, that most of the larger
species are incapable of flight. Thus
the wings are much shortened in a spe-
cies Of Tinea, and the insect, though
active, only moves by jumps, while they
are reduced or even rudimentary in
most of the flies, and the larger beetles
have their wing-cases or elytra firmly
soldered gether-Academy.
