SUICIDE OF A COUNT.—A count, who had long been out at elbows, has just committed suicide in the Toulon prison. Some time ago he was arrested and sentenced to a week's imprisonment as a vagabond. Being recognised as a gentleman of noble family, the prison authorities procured him a coachman's place with a rich family. He performed his duties with comfort to himself and satisfaction to his master, but, unfortunately, the latter having occasion to change his residence, discharged him. He found it impossible to get any employment, and dreading to be again taken up for a vagabond saved the officers trouble by declaring himself to be one, and asking for a lodging in prison. There being a mark against his name as an " old offender," he was placed in a class subjected to more severe' prison discipline than he had been on the first occasion. This change of treatment weighed heavily on his mind. He had in his pocket some manuscript essays on scientific, subjects which had been rejected by many publishers, and to console himself he appealed against their judgment to that of his fellow-prisoners, but they only laughed and jeered when he attempted to read his productions to them. On going to bed he asked the gaoler to lend him a pencil ; with this he wrote upon a sheet of note paper these words—" Since everybody mocks at me, I must be an ass." Then he hung himself by his braces to a bar in his cell, and he was found in the morning dead.—Daily News.
