A TERRIBLE affection befell the fam
lily of Mr. Samuel Wolf, IN this place,
on Sunday evening last, in the suicide
of Mrs Leah Wolf. During the after
noon she had expressed her intention
Of visiting a sick neighbor, and her
family supposing this TO be the case,
paid no attention to her absence until
the evening began to wane, when her
daughter, on opening the door leading
up STAIRS, discovered her mother hang
ing by the neck TO the hand-rail. An
alarm was given and DIR. Thompson
and others were soon on hand. A
jury was summoned by Esq Murray /,
and an inquest he'd. The verdict, as
rendered by the jury, was: Diseased
come TO her death BY strangularion by
hanging, at her own hands" What the
predisposing cause was it would be diff
fcuit to state. Mrs. Wolf was lady
OF very retiring disposition and some
what subject to attacks of melancholy.
These generally oppressed her most Sc
verely on the anniversary of the death
OF her son, who died by his own hand
on the 4th of March, about eleven
years since. No doubt temporary de-
r,ngement was the cause of the rash
act.-Mrs. " off was aged about a
years.-Danu,iie Jnleliigencer.

The following story is told as occur
ring during the recent trip Of the legis-
lative excursionists TO the upper PENN
sula The trip from Marquette to
Houghton was made on the steamer
Peerless, and, a. there was scarcity Of
state-rooms, Governor Croswell and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Sessions were
obliged TO occupy the same room In
disrobing himself, the Governor set his
new silk hat down in the corner near the
washstand where he thought il would
not get RULED up. Early in the morn
ing, before il had grown light, the Lieu
tenant Governor arose and washed him
self In the dusk Of the statc-room he
mistook the Governors beaver for a
slop-rcceiver, and twice empted the
contents Of the washbowl into il. The
Governor arose, and seeing the dirty
water IN the hat, made the same mis-
take as his roommate. When he was
ready to leave the room he remembered
where lie had placed his hat, and on
reaching down for il was awakened 70
the real situation, and to the fact that he
had no other Uranium covering with
him. The Governor wore silk hand
kerchief on his head until he arrived at
Houghton, where a new hat was pur-
chased. (lMich.) Patriot.
