UNREQUITED LOVE AND ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.— A rather romantic affair has jam: occurred at Garinane, nine miles north of Preston. A young man, named William Corkin, about 22 years of age, who is in the employ off builder in that town, was found in an apparently dying state in an outhouse on the premises of Dr. Bell, about six o'clock on Monday morning. Corleas had been paying court to a young woman' named Isabella Pearson, a servant in the em• ploy of Dr. Bell. On Sunday evening, however, she told him lie "need not come any more." This seems to have almost maddened the young man, and after lingering about the house until he saw that the gal had retired to rest, he went down to the canal and threw himself into the water. Being a good swimmer, and being, perhaps, roused by the sudden shock to the system, he scrambled out, however; but helm. mednitely threw himself in again, though only to crawl to land once more. He then went under a bridge, and taking out a pocket knife, cut his throat, nearly severing the windpipe. In that condition he walked to Dr. Beh's house, a distance of a mile and a half, and thou went into the washing cellar, where Ire made a doep gash across the back of his left wrist. Leaving his coat and the knife in the cellar (it is supposed in the belief that Isabella Pearson would see them immediately she rose), he went out to an outhouse in the yard, where, as stated, he was found at six o'clock on Monday morning. The wounds in the tie out and wrist were stitched up, and eeriest' was lammed to his mother's bonne at Catterall. where ha is recovering. .  e  , • A correepondent at St. Petersburg, writing on the 18th, says :—"After endless delays and mistakes, the final preparations have at length been made for pro.
