Suicide ny Fasting.

WAsHINGTos, Jan. Miss Chloe
Ann Violet, who began a fast six
days ago in Alexandria, Va, under
an insane delusion that Ged had
commanded her to commit suicide
by fasting, died last night. Al
though she claimed to have begun
the fast about sixty days ago she
was not all that time without nour-
ishment. Several times small
portion of milk was introduced
without discovery into the water
she drank, and lately meat extracts
have been given as medicine
There seems to be no doubt, howev-
er, that she was without food fer
tor;y-threc consecutive days.

A SCHEME or SUCCESSION.

It viii not be surprising II 1854
sees 4 rather singular shifting OF po-
liticAl positions in this country.
In the first place the indications are
that the South, heretofore so solidly
Democratic, viii veer entirely
around, and become u very strong
hold OF Republicanism. The color
cd vote Of those States, reinforced
by the white Republicans and the
liberal Democrats, viii be too strong
Tor the Bourbons, and that such a
combination may be looked for IS
quite evident TO the close observer.
Before the Presidential year it is
not at all improbable that a naiori-
ty of the Southern States viii have
followed the lead Of Virginia and
Joined the Republican army for good.
There are dozens of influences at
work 10 this end, and such a result
is in the direct line OF probability.
This secession from Bourbonism
viii have to be made good, if made
good at all, by proselyting at the
North, and already the work has be-
gun. There are q halfdozen news
papers of prominence that are pre-
pairing TO rush from the Republican
ranks, where they have maintained
a doubtful standing, over 10 the
arms OF Democracy. The Chicago
Tri6uaeis one among them, and is
already flirting and dallying with
its Old lover, preparatory to Welding
everything asked of it. Other pa
| pers are exhibiting ike anxiety TO
be won, and these organs are backed
by a number Of politicians In and
out OF Congress who only want the
faintest excuse to Jump clean into
the middle Of the party they affect
to oppose. That this secession, il
carried ont as contemplated, viil
take some OF the closer Northern
States into the Democratic to.d can
hardly be doubted, so that the next
Presidential contest is hardly likely
10 be a sectional one. but to show
closely contested field from Maine
to Florida and all along the line.
OF course, it is possible that the
schemes now being concocted and
put into execution may miscarry
and 4 Iakewarn and insincere sup.
port OF the party continue To be Civ
en- by the newspapers so anxious to
shake off the allegiance of Republi-
canism but the plan. the wish, and
the hope are none the less apparent.
From his time forth efforts win be
nlade 6y so called Republican Jour |
mails 10 create dissatisfaction with |
President Arthur and his admins
tration. The work can be prosecu-
ted under the guise OF party friend
ship than. as an open opponent, but
as soon as the opportunity is ripe
al disguise viii be thfown off and
the old sell-oat Of 1S7f-72 win be re-
pcated The honest Republicans of
the country who have been accus-
toned TO gain their impressions of
men and affairs from these secret 1
enemies Of the party should be warm
ed in time. The plan. and it is one !
that is boasted about in private, is
70 carry them over To the enemy IN
der the plea that the present admin /
istration is unworthy their conf
dence ard support. Let the col
umns OF these journals and the
course Of their allies and eoadiu;ors /
in Congress and elsewhere be watch /
ed, and the timeliness Of this warn
ing viii be ycriiied.--Iate- Ocean.
