EXTRAORDINARY OUTRAGE AND SUICIDE.  TILBURY FORT, THURSDAY.—For several days past the inhabitants of this quiet neighbourhood have been greatly excited by the following most extraordinary occurrence:— In the course of Wednesday, as a young female named Caroline Brooks, aged eighteen, living at Hendon-on-the Hill, was walking from that place to Mucking, she was accosted by a man, who said to her, " I want one word with you, and no more." She replied, "that she did not wish to hold any conversation with him," and added that there was a policeman behind her. He then observed, " Say not a word—if you do, you are dead." She then screamed for assistance, when he seized her and put a handkerchief into her mouth, and so held it. He then threw her to the ground, and contrived to keep her down, during which time he loaded a pistol with ball, and declared if she again attempted to scream, be would shoot her. A horse and cart approaching, however, at this period, he allowed her to get up; and, bolding the pistol before her face, sail', "You can go and give any information you like about me ; but if you tell that man (pointing to the driver of the cart), you are dead, for lam watching you." As the cart passed, he took a purse out of his pocket, and put it before her face. He said he should be dead in five minutes ; and then, taking her hand, remarked that he was sorry he had given her so much trouble. She was afraid to call to the driver; but, on freeing herself from her assailant, she ran to a neighbouring house, and the police were apprised of the attack.  Two constables, named Cracknell and Hammond, immediately went in pursuit of him towards West Tilbury, and when within four yards of him, Cracknell observed to his comrade, " That is the man ;" and, ere they could seize him, be raised the pistol, and shot himself through the head. He died in about a quarter of an hour, and on being searched, a pocket-book was found in his coat pocket, in which was the following writing in pencil:-_" Quos Deus suit perdere prius denzentat. Jacta est cam." Gunpowder, percussion caps, and bullets, were also found upon h►m, and a picture of John Tawell, the murderer, under the lining of his hat.  He was identified to be John Bibby, formerly of the 46th Regiment, twenty. seven years of age, and living in Tanstreet, Horslydown. He left his house on Friday week, and was met by a sergeant of the. 46th, near this place, on WedneSday morning. He appeared much excited and said he was in search of a sewant of that rt giment, who once had charge of him, to shoot him. Knowing that he had attempted to destroy himself on several occasions, and believing his mind to be impaired, the sergeant did not heed his threat, merely telling him that the sergeant was in Ireland. He was respectably connected, and gained his livelihood by teaching music. A coroner's jury found" That he shot himself while in an unsound state of mind."
