DELIBERATE SUICIDE OF YOUNG
LADY.-Some days ago Miss Mary
Jane Wiley, a step-daughter Of
Dir. Daniel Agee, living on Flat
Top, in Mercer county, committed
suicide drowning herself in a pond
of water near her home. There
was no apparent cause for the ra.h
act on the part Of Miss Wiley. She
left home in good health, and SEEM
ingly quite cheerful,tO visit neigh
b r, and not returning, some inqui-
RES were made, and was learned
that she had not been to a neigh
boris house. Search was then made,
and her bonnet, hanging ON a bush
al the waters edge, furnished a
clue to her whereabouts. The pom d
was dragged, and her body found
about the centre of it in water twelve
feet deep.

The nomination Of ex-senator Mat
theWs for the supreme bench, has given
rise TO considerable u~nfayorable COM
ment among republican senators, about
Ohio men, etc, but the democrats, and
most of the republicans in the senate
are satisfied with his nomination, and,
it is believed, Matthews will be con-
irmed by a vote practically unanimous.
The electoral votes are to be counted
one week from Wednesday, but as yet
there is very little prospect of making
any previous arrangements to govern
the proceedings.
1t is the intention Of the democratic
party managers to call up the Morgan
Bicknell resolution again in the house
next Tuesday, but the chances of its
passage, as heretofore explained, are
extremely unpromising. in view Of the
determination of the republicans to
continue their llibustering opposition
indefinitely. and of the further certain
" thAb AZ it&AoA AOut " Att aCAAoLtato
wish to see Speaker Randall's efforts TO
procure its passage, fail. The principal
difficulty ahead is that when the vote Of
Georgia shall be reached by joint con
vention, the question will arise whether
or not she shall be counted. II tho vice
president assume the sole right to decide
and either records 1t or throws IL out,
it will, in either event, provoke objec-
ton. In '57 the state Of Wisconsin
cast its electoral vote on the day after
that prescribed by law. There were no
rules governing the count then, aud
when in joint convention, Wisconsin
was called, the tellers listed the vote
aud the vice president announced it for
Fremont and Dayton. alphabetically
1t did not affect thu result, but the two
houses separated and debated the ques-
ton for several days, and finally did
nothing except to adopt a resolution to
notify Buchanan that he had been
elected president, and Breckenridge
vice president. If there is no rule
adopted between now and February 9th,
Georgia will probably be counted rs
Wisconsin was in '57.

the reflection that, while we have at home

the best physicians in the world, these

the line Of popular medicines for fam

take advantage of the high scientific

isn't as old in the law as Brother Hoad-

Mr.. Richards, fguratively speaking,
hurled .dornic at Judge Hoadley's

say the pile took a tumble.
Being recuperated within, as it were,
the court suggested that if any other
fellow wanted to fire off his mouth he
should fire. Brother Il. NJ. johnson
was loaded to the muzzle, and stood at
half-cock ready for some n to pull the
trigger. Then he talked-and talked
till he exhausted the English language.
But it made no difference, there were
several other languages left, and he
scooped up several shoyels of Latin and
hurled it at the court, with such rat
Ting rapidity that their honors actually
winked and blinked. When Mr.. John

ciently recovered to deliver the second

A DISPATCH from Durham gives the

guard, consisting of a portion of the
56th regiment and a force of horsemen,
attacked the Beers position. The attack
was at first partially successful, but SUBJ
-aeqHently the Boers were strongly rein
forced, and repulsed the British troops
with heavy loss, the Beers suffering
severely. Both sides maintain their
former positions. Gen. NColley must
now await the infantry achievements,
