mcxlco-rhe Usual Terrorism

On the Goth ult., part of the crew of the
Mexican wa steamer Libertad, at Vera
Cruz, mutinied, and seized the steamer
while the commander was on shore.
simultaneously some officers of the Vera
Cruz garrison attempted to raise a revolt.
Nine of the rebels were killed. The steamer
Libertad wentto sea, and the other steamers
went in pursuit. While the government
has apparently mastered the situation since
the revolt of the garrison, a reign of terror
has prevailed. All the merchants are hostile
to the government in con sequence of the
passage Of a law against the c%ontraband
trade, and they have ever since been in a
state Of quasi revolt. It is generally be.

singular suicide of . Young and Happy
Wife.

A correspondent says that society in
Evansville has been greatly shocked by
the suicide of Mrs. DIR. j. w. Irwin, a
lady moving in the highest society and
very warmly admired by a large circle of
friends. DIR. and Mrs. Irwin had been
married only a few weeks, the bride
having been Miss Stellt Mather, Of
Fostoria, Ohio, daughter of Rev. D b.
Mather, of the Methodist Church there.
She was only about twenty years old,
beautiful, accomplished and surrounded
by everything to make her happy. Her
husband is a very prominent young
physician, who lavished large sums of
money in fitting up an elegant residence
for his bride. Since they moved home
they have lived in perfect harmony and,
apparently, very happy, and the tragedy
CAM like a thunderstorm to all. An
inquest was held and the verdict was
tina. the deceased committed suicide while
laboring under temporary insanity, caused
by depression of spirits induced by the
hot weather.

Death of Ex-Govsrnor warrian Allen.

the ex Governor of Ohio, the ex-senator
of the United States, the representative
politician of the olden time, has passed
sway-passed away, doubtless, as he
desired, suddenly, without warning and
without pain, and at his beloved Fruit
Hill, the one place on earth he loved the
most T~wenty.four hours previous to his
death he was feeling as well as he had felt
for years. Wednesday he took his customary
drive to the city, and while here spoke
of his unusually good health. Thursday
morning he awoke feeling badly, and about
four p. m. thought he had a chill. AT six
p. m he was persuaded by DR.. Scott, his
son-in.law and physician, to go to bed, and
the Doctor gave him a prescription which
he hopvd would afford him relief.
Both the Doctor aud Mrs. Scott remained
up with him, notwitbstan ding the Cover
nor's assertion that he was feeling well, and
his requests that they would retire. HI
arose without assistance several times dur
ing the night, and moved about the room.
About twelve o'clock DIR. SCOTT retired tx
an adjoining room and sat readings paper
hoping that II everything was quiet the
Governor might get some sleep. Mrs. Scot
remained in the room with him.
About half past one o'clock the Governol
suddenly arose from his bed, staggered to
chair, and without q word of warning, fell
down into 1t a corpse.
