SUICIDE AT SPRINGFIELD. ;
One of 'themost horrid scenes ever
known here, occurred at Springffeld last ;
week. The facts as wif:hear theOn are as ,
follows :—Aliout the first of the week Mr..
SMITH Ilawisess' *ife died. Se affected
was Mr. U. by this event, that it *as
feared his mental faculties were derang
ed. After his wife's death, ho woirld go
out, and looking up, call loudly to the de:
parted companion. The day following
the interment of the deceased, Mr. 11.
told his brother-in-Law. that he'aiui tired
of life, and that he had contemplated
banging himself. He had fully- decided
to do this, but he did not know just what
1 be should do. .After this he was' cloiely
watched. That evening, as he was doing
his chores, he was mused. After the
premises had been thoroughly searched,
-the neighbors joined tho friends and a
general search was made in the neighbor-.
hood, until between the hours eleven and
tweive,'when a barn,, belonging to Mr. N... 4
i
Voonuis, a near neighbor, - was discovet .
ed to be on fire. Such headway had t _
flames:attained, that all efforts to save t
buildiug were useless. Two horses rt 1
two cows had already perished in.
limes. Shortly before the falling of te 1
flame a blackened t.bject was discovered
on tlie,buruing hay. With great effort it
was removed from the dames, and to the
horror of all it was found to. be the re
irking of a human being,
Some
and
burned past recognition. Some parts of the
body were entirely burned away, ~ others
only the nal , el bones remained. (As Mr.
IlanwriEss could not be found it Was sup
posed that the nirfortunate man had end
ed his life in this horrid manner Arti
tides were afterwards found in -the ruins
which were known to have been) in his
possession. How he took his life, and
how the barn was set on fire will remain
a mystery. 'Two or three years ago =Mr.
Vooniirs', house was destroyed by
,fire.
Great exciteldent prevails in the neigh
borhood. There was about two hundred
dollars insurance on the burned property.

EDITOR REPORTin :—From the 'infre
quency of communieptioni to:your paper
frtim this place, ono would naturally sup--
,pose we were an - i nneventful people., or
that the' writing master bad not been
" abrciad " in tbe i town. , But events have
thickened sernewedt during
.the past four
months.
First, the people here are moved by a
feeling of sincere ,regret, at having A.
D. MuNN leave us, • Fkom his previous
sound financial standing, 'we little thought
he would be the first to go "Over the bilk
to the Poor House." He and his better
half will be much missed here. .
Our town is now minus a Justice of the
Peace. Esquire BARNVII's successor will
not assume the duties of the office until
May, and since' the 'township election Dr.
111finsit has resigned, for the reason he
says, that it interfered with his other bus
iness. 4 A petition has been forwarded to
the Oovernor to have. Mr. J. 11. MVKIN
NSEY appointed, to fill the vacancy.
' The Citizens of the township and viein
ity,expreis general .desirentltat some
good responsible man should put-asfnck
of goods into' one of the vacant gores
front which Mr. LANTZ has moved. -.lt is
as gbod an.opening as the county affords
fora live man in the general mercantile
business, as-the sight is in the midst of a
prosperous farming community, and there
is no competitiotiworthy of the, name. •
During, the past winter meetings have
bekn held at the, Baptist and M. E
Churches, with good rest Alta. Some fifty
have professed cobiersiou, and the. moral
and religious tone of the community has
bectimaterially and perceptibly elevated.
The Devil as natal on such oeca4ions put
in' an appearance, but as -usual in his
Alight overshot the mark and was "hoist
