DEATH OF A JoURNALTsT.--Mr.
Charles Cathcart Taylor, City Editor
of the Times, and one Of the best
known and most popular young men
in Philadelphia, died on Sunday last,
from the effects of a pistol-shot, dis
charged in moment Of mental aber-
ration, by his own hand. Mr.. Taylor
had been in i'll health for two months
or more. A chronic dyspepsia pre-
vented his taking regular rest or suffi-
Gent food to sustain a debilitated sys-
tenn, and this physical disorder was
supplemented and aggravated by an
accumulation of business troubles
which brought on mental distur-
bance, involving depression of spirits.
He was on dnty at the 1imes office
until a late hour on Saturday night.
On the following morning at about
nine o'clock he awoke, and, though
very weak, proposed to accompany his
wife to church. She persuaded him
that he ought to sleep longer and
went down stairs to prepare some beet
tea, in the hope that it would strength
en- him. While she was gone lie fired
the fatal shot. His death was instan-
taneous. The remains we're inferred
in the family burial lot in Oakland
Cemetery, Georgetown, D. G., on
Tuesday. Mr.. Taylor was about 30
wears Of age.
