A Determined Self.Murderer.

Frank Safer, q German, of Fulton,
No., was bound to make an end OF him.
self, and this is how he proceeded to do
it: Going into a portion of the kiln
where he worked and where he would
not be interrupted, he took off his apron,
folded it up neatly, and then removing
his hat, laid both aside. With a stone
hammer he commenced striking himself
on the head, fracttlring the bone and
inhicting CHASTITY wound. But this
process was too tedious and painful, so,
iaying aside the hammer, he drew a
knife and endeavored to cut into the
wound and force the blade into the brain.
Failing in this, he stabbed himself sew
eral times. But fate seemed against
him, for at every stroke the blade was
stopped by rib. Death seemed to
avoid him. His patience was exhausted,
and he gave up the attempt and came
out of the kiln. Then fellow-workman
saw him all mutilated and bloody.
Others we're called and the would-be
dead man was conveyed to his room.
The patient appeared to be perfectly
rational, and said that everybody was
down on him and that he was tired OF
living. He survived few days and then
died.

Clerical Statesmen.

There have been two or three members
of the United States Senate who were
preachers. Of these we recall Everett,
Of Massachusetts; Colquitt, Of Georgia;
and Upton, Of Nebraska. In the House
there have been few ministers, notably
Hilliard, of Alabama, and Seelye, of
Massachusetts. There has been but one
member of cabinet, besides Mr..
Everett, who has added preaching to
politics, and he is Secretary Thompson,
of the navy. The Rev. J. G. Fletcher,
writing in reference to him in the In
dianapois Journal, says /: When on q
visit to Terre Haute few days ago, I
ascertained a fact about our secretary
of the navy, which I have never seen
in print. AS was on my way to church,
in company with one of the oldest citi-
zens of Terre Haute, I noticed carriage
driving in the direction of the country,
and my companion remarked "That
carriage contains Hon. Mr.. Scott and
wife. Mr.. Scott is the ex-member Of
Congress from this district. They are
going to little country Methodist church
in the vicinity of Secretary Thompson's
farm. It is there that Col. Thompson
is in the habit, when at home, Of each
Sabbath expounding the Scriptures to
his farmer neighbors. He is now spend
ing his vacation with us, and every Sab
bath he really breaches the Gospel. In
this he is ably encouraged by his wife,
who is one Of the salt OF the earth.

Census of Total Populaop Increase in years. inc.

The uniformity Of the increase up to
the war is very remarkable. Taken alto
gether, it shows little more than three
and half per cent. year. At that
rate we shonld have had in 1870 about
40, 500, 900. We fell short about four
millions.
We are getting well along into the last
half of the decade, and several State
enumerations we're made in 1876. From
these, and from the figures of the past,
there may be found reasonable grounds
for estimating the present population,
and the probable population in 1880.
In the following table, compiled from
the Sun, are given the population OF
each State for 1870, the estimated per
cent. of increase between 1870 and 1880
in accordance with the ratio of increase
between 1860 and 1870, and the estimated
population in 1880. Surely each of these
States must have increased since 1870
considerably faster than during the war
period; yet we will take in round
numbers very nearly the rate OF increase
from 1860 to 1870, and apply it as fol-

that many of the Bulgarians taken red
handed in acts of violence and con-
demned to death, when they see that
there is no longer any hope or chance OF
escape, produce from hidden pockets
large sums of money, which they pre-
sent to one or other of the zaptiehs who
may perhaps have treated them with
kindness. Lately, five Bulgarians were
sentenced to death in Mustapha. When
it came to the turn Of one Of them to be
led forth, he requested the non-commis-
stoned officer commanding the party IN
charge of him to wait a moment. With
some trouble he then extricated from
the folds OF his garments a handful OF
gold Iras, and these he presented to the
sergeant. This latter, moved by the
generosity of his prisoner, tapped the
latter on the shoulder, exclalmlng ::
"As you are such q good fellow, you
shall be hanged in the shade and,
keeping his promise, he selected a shady
and pleasant spot, and there the Bull
garian was executed.

Curious Place for 8 Nest.

Some time ago, says an exchange. we
gave few interesting notes regarding
the curious places in which birds nave II,
been known to build their nests. The
London Times surpasses all stories OF
the kind in the following account written
from East Cosham, Hants: 1T may be
interesting to some of your readers -
so runs the paragraph" to be informed
that, in small piece Of framework un-
derneath third-class smoking carriage
on the London and Southwestern rail-
way, a water wag-tail has built her nest,
and reared a young and thriving family
of four. The train runs regularly from
Oosham to Havant five times day, In all
about forty miles; and the station master r
informs me that, during the absence OF
the train, the male bird keeps close t"
the spot, waiting with manifest interest
and anxiety the return of his family from
heir periodical tour"

A Very Oueer Wedding,

Three young men of Newark, N. D.,
Charles tutz, Frederick Griene- and
George Diertvill, were brought before
Special Police Justice Otto, recently,
on charge of conspiracy and suborna-
ton of perjury. The arrests we're made
upon the afidavits of George Hart and
his daughter Elizabeth. Lutz, Miss
Hart's counsel claims, clandestinely
married her, hoping thereby to extort
money from her family. Miss Lutz is
minor. being only fifteen years old. Her
beauty is not spoken Of in enthusiastic
terms. She is an only child, and her
father is a respectable and prosperous
citizen living at No. 165 Hamburg place,
and works as an engineer in Joseph
Hensler's brewery. Lutz, the groom,
who is now under $1,000 bail because
of his being groom, is dyer by trade,
and his acquaintance with Miss Hart was
slight, and possibly will remain 80.
On recent Sunday Miss Lizzie left
her home to get tooth extracted, as
she was suffering intensely. On the
corner OF Broad and Market streets she
met Lutz and his friends, Griener and
Diertvill. They asked her to get into
car with them she refused at first, say
ing she did not know where they would
take her. They entered, however, and
tode over mile, leaving the car near
Belleville avenue. While walking
along the streets one of Lutz's friends
proposed they should call upon min
lister and Lutz and Lizzie get married:
Again she objected, but they persuaded
her that it was to,be just for joke. Be-
fore entering, however, they told her
she would be asked her age, and she
must say she was eighteen. After fur
ther objections, she agreed to this. The
four called upon the Rev. George n.
Boynton, pastor of the Belleville Avenue
CONGREGATIONAL Church, and requested
that he should marry Lutz and the girl.
The minister asked her age, and one OF
the young men answered for her, elgh-
teen. Mr. Boynton was not satisfied,
and resolved to put them under oath,
Lutz swore he was twenty-four and she
to eighteen. Upon this they were mar
ried, and the girl at once went to her
dentists, then home, where she has re-
manned. =,
Monday friend of her family named
Kummerk came to Mr.. Hart and told
him that party to which his daughter
was going that evening was prete1t to
get her where she could be married.
Upon this information her father ques-
toned her and learned the facts as above
stated. He was incredulous and called
upon Mi. Boynton, who assured him OF
the fact and presented him with GER
tifcate of marriage to which was ap.
pended the sworn statement of the two
young people as to their age. Acting
upon this, he made afidavits before Jus.
tice Otto, and the three were arrested
forthwith. Their bail was fixed at
81, 900 each, and an examination set
down for the following Tuesday. The
motives of Lutz and his friends have
not been ascertained.-Neao York

An Incident Of Colorado Life.

In drear and wintry prairie opening
called Summit Park" Oregon Bill has
established his hermit home. His cabin
is visible mile down the meadow and
a tin corkscrew Of smoke was curling
above it's dirty roof when we passed.
The other day whilst O. Bill was away
thirty or forty miles at his next neigh
boris, rebuilding q dilapidated leg or
something, another fellow who wanted
to be hermit came along and jumped
into Bills possessions. BY and by Bill
came lmping back home on crutches
and the jumper met him at the door with
his gun. Bill let go one crutch, held
up his game leg, whipped out his re:
volver and blazed away. Then he walked
off down to Saguache, sixty or seventy
miles, told the story and gave himself
up. An examination was had and he
was discharged; fatigue party was sent
up to plant the other fellow and s now y, of
Bills fright there is none to dispute. "---'
