SUICIDE.—On Wednesday night, about seven o'clock, a woman named M‘Lintock, the wife of a shoemaker residing in Maitland Lane, Cowcaddens, attempted to put a period to her existence by cutting her throat with a large table knife. There was no one in the house at the time, with the exeep. tion of her daughter, a young girl, who was confined to bed from indisposition. A neighbour, seeing some blood flowing from underneath the door, gave the alarm to the police, and Drs. Grieve and Go'die were imniediatnly in attendance, and succeeded in stopping the hemorrhage, and recommended the woman toeing sent to the Royal Infirmary, where she now lies in a dangerous state. She was able to speak, and give as a reason for committing the rash act her having violently struck her invalid daughter with a stick, which she had feared would lead to fatal consequence. Whisky is suspected to have had something, to do with the melancholy occurrence.  BASE Cotv.—A woman of respectable exterior, with an Irish accent, and an infant of six months old in her arms, and who gave her name as Ann Ryan or James, was charged at the Central Police Court on Wednesday with uttering as genuine a ht;'..iialforown piece, in the shop of a hosier in Trongate Street, on the preceding Monday evening. She entered one shop about dusk, purchased s pair 01 child's socks, offering in payment the bad coin. Is was refused as being bad, at which she expressed surprise, said she had got it among change for Al la a shop in Saltrnarket, and she readily gave a good half-crown, paying for the socks, getting back her change, and leavaig the shop. She then entered a second shop close at hand, offering the same coin in payment of a second pair of socks. It was here al.o detected, and, while a conference was going on, the lad from the first shop entered, and accused her of having made the attempt to impose on him. She point•blank denied having been in his shop at all, and stated that she had got the bad coin in change at the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway Station, and that she had come from Edinburgh that day. A female who had been observed along with her at the door escaped. She was sent to the Police. office, and, on her way up, she made an attempt to destroy a link in the chain of evidence against her, by stealthily throwing from her the socks she had purchased in the first shop. She was oonvieted and sod 00 dap to prim.
