Shocking Suicide at Petersburg, .Va. F. st A i n b,l e k, flour inspector at Petersburg, Va., and one of . the most active _business nten of that eity,;cinionitved sui c ide in a most - borrible manner on Tuesday night. The Express states that his wife was absent in' the country, and his children having retired to bed, he employed himself until a kite hour of the night in Writino - letters. It then adds : Having arranged all, as he thought, for the regulation of matters after his death, he took two stualFsingre barraled pocket 'pistols, a four bladed pen knife and a razor and descend ed into the cellar by a staircase from the din ing coon/. Here be . divested himself of his pantaloons and laid them by behind a box partly filled with bran.—He next got into this' b ran box, and must have used the penknife p art ly for wounding - himself, as it was cast_ aside clotted with blood, as were also - the' pis- - tols,'-neither of which had been discharged. fro grasped the razor, and the first wound he inflicted upon himself was a - circular cut of about four or five inches in the abdorcen,from which the intestines protruded and fell on the bran box. Finding that this would not ter minate his existence speedily, he applivd the razor . to his throat and Made .a fearful gash ne arly from ear to ear, - by which death was caused almost instantaneously. The body was discovered net morning by &servant. it was -lying in the bran box on its right side, with limbs and arias bent up rigid in death. Tire left - band was fiTtnly clenched, while the right hand held the razor in a Manner to: give the bolder great power over the blade.---The right side of the body Was covered with clotted bleed, and a portion of the bowels :ay near the body. - A letter in the Riehmond'Postsays the "de ceased 'was a man of uncommon talent, though Wild and eittravagant'inhis ideas; ofan ardent and excitable temperament. His active exer tions in the late gubernatorial contest seem to have unsettled his mind; in fact, "upon the subject of politics, he was truly a monomaniac. lle-leaves a wife and six children to mourn his untimely loss."' , r) --- The few Whig papers that believe the old Whig party still lives, arc making anxious inquiries after the Whig State Central Com mittee, and want to know whether there is to be any Whig State Convention held this year. They express lively fears that the Committee has sold out the party to the K. N's. The Washington Co Ilifttall etteall it says : "There is certainly something wrong some where ; our State central Committee are per fectly indifferent or have betrayed and sold the Whig party ! We should regret- to believe that this were true—but, judging from the appear ance of things, we can scarcely come . to any other conclusion.'' To which the Lancaster Examiner adds, as though it spoke knowingly "The fears of the Commonwealth are doubt less too well founded. The administration and the Statil .Central Committee have evidently been .guilty of treachery to the Whig party not surpassed in infamy by that of John Tyler or Benedict Arnold. Ilistory will class them all in the satne catalogue of traitors." 'The Sabel Public of Lyons giveS Me fol lowing most strange story : , ‘A few days ago a certain number of Eng lishmen established in this city gave a splendid banquet to 'a countryman of theirs, a Mr. Art her' Fleming, a rich merchant-of - London, then at Lyons,, and who bad just completed -a residence of eleven months in the prison of Frankfort, in whiehlie ha.s been placed under the following circurnslances:About a tw el ye month- ago, Mr. Fleming stopped for two days at one (.4 the principal hotels at Frankfort-on the-Maine, and on the third day, when about to leave, called for his bill, which to his as.- tonisliment, amounted to about 250 francs. - Indignant at this demand, which he considered exorbitant, be tendered one half of it, but, the landlord persisted in his demand, and threat ened tO send his customer to prison, as the law of the place allowed him to do. The English man, however, was obstinate, and suffered --himse to—tic—ar-A. , sted • and—locked . up. Al though the laws of Frani:lint give this power to creditors, •therat the same time impose on them the necessity of supporting their debtors while in prison, and also, to furnish them with clothes and other articles suitable to them in life. This the hotel ke6per was compelled to do in' Mr„ Fleming's case - , and so little care did the Englishman take'of time artieleS supplied to him, that the former at hist found himself minus a sum of nearly 20,000 f, and thinking that amount quite enough to expend for his obstinacy / he ordered the release of his cap tive. Mr. Fleming, not wishing - to triumph over his creditor, immediately on his rele,ase gave a sum to the poor of Frankfort amounting to double that expended by the hotel keeper." RECIPM FOR FLOATING.—As the warm weath er approaches, crowds of persons resort to the river and ponds in the vicinity to fsathe, and indulge in sailing and other aquatic sports, by which many careless persons will endanger their lives, as usual. As it may be of some service to those who do not understand how to conduct themselves in the perilous struggles in water, we re-publish the following direc tions from the spirit of the Times :---'•Any hu man being who will have the presence of mind to clasp the hands behind the back, and turn the face loward,s I ke - zenil Is, may float, at ease and in perfect safety-in tolerably still water aye, and sleep there, no matter how long. If, not knowing how to swim, you would escape drowning, when you, find yourself in deep wa ter, you have only to consider yourself an emp ty pitcher—let your mouth and nose, not the top of your heavy head, be the highest part of you and you are safe. But thrust up one of -your bony hands and down you go : turning up theliandlii tips 'over the pitcher. Having had the happiness -to prevent one or two from drowning by this simple instruction, we pub lish-it for the benefit of all who either Luce aquatic spurts or dread them."

I/ ESN ~ ~ : Milli iine==ll The late Eartlignakes and Eruptions. If we were living in an earlier age of the world, when superstition held paramount sway °vet the minds of men, and when comets, earthquakes and other wonders - cif natnre were considered to be warnings of '•dire events to come," we_ might he tempted to cite the late - earthquake at Bionssa, the Ancient Capital of l _thej_nrks.,_as_a_pertent_forshadawin , * the runt ' and dispersion of the once mighty Othman race. But science teaches us that even if the destruction of the great Moslem power should I happen. the earthquake at Bronssa will have ' been hut a coincidence, and not a sign. From the earliest ages. the region where these con. vulsions of nature have taken place, has been the scene of frequent earthquakes. Geologists tell us, in fact, that a continuous, vocanic dis trict, beginning east of the . Caspian. extends westiVard - to Vi - !suVins, passing - through - Asia 1:%linoi• and the / l E , rean. •An eruption of the great volcano at Naples is generally, therefore, attended iiith earthquakes in Asia Minor, just asithas_becn now. • It is a curious circumstance that this tinder grown reservoir for the pent-up fires seems to run in two distinct channels, one taking the course we have described, the iither passing south through Syria and terminatingat Etna. History teaches that when the latter mountain is active, Vesuvius is silent, and vice versa. An eruption of Etna; moreover, is usually at tended with earthquakes in Syria, while earthquakes in Asia Minor are 'almost univer sally significant of an eruption of -Vestivins. Never", we-believe, have Syria. and Asia Minor he-n convulsed simultaneOusly. The centre of the great oscillating earth AVIIVe, when the convulsion takes the northern channel, is.ns ually found - near- Broussa, which has conse quently always been liable to, earthqnakes. The *hole region, indeed, is one Of freqiient disturbance. Constantinople has been visited continually by earthquakes. so that there is scarcely a 'mosque in 'it which -is not cracked. A vague tradition, but not necessarily. an un trustwor thy one, records that the Bosphorus itself was the work of tin earthquake and that the Black Sea, the "apple of -discord" in the present war, was once an' inland, ocean, like the Caspian is now. ' If the iaiS, so to speak. of this late earth wave had been a hundred or two miles to the northeast of Broussa, the Oriental war might have come to a strange conclusion. Between the sea of Azoff and the Caspian lies a ridge of slightly elevated land, which,. if is ever de pressed by - ran earthquake, like the coast of Chili has been within,the memory of man, will pour the waters of 'the first sea• into those of the last, -and 'thence over the great plain of Central Asia; which lies lower, as is well known, than the level of the Azoff. This would create a current from the Black Sea in- Azolf, and from the Meditereanean into ,tie Black Sea ; and the rush of waters would continue until the low plains of middle Asia would be covered with a shallow sea to the level of the Atlantic.- Such an event• would place a barrier between lLussia and_ India in- finitely more potent tlutn armies. The thing, indeed, may never happen ; but, as We have seen, it istar from being iniprobahle ; indeed, many geologists: thints it came nwirer to being realized during these late earthquakes, than the Allies are to taking Sevastopol. —ledger. Eicape from Fire. The superintendent' of tlie London fire Uri oade has devised the following very judicious airections'for aiding persons to escape from premises on fire: 1. Be careil►t to acquaint yourself with the best.means qf exit from the house both at the top and bottom. .‘L. On the first alartn pfleet before" you act. If in bed at the time, wrap yourself in'a blan ket or hedsidu carpet; open no more doers nor windows than are -absolutely necessary, and shUt every door after you. 3. There is always from eight to twelve inches of pure air close to the ground ; if you cannot, therefore, .walk upright through the smoke, drop on your hands and knees, and thus progress. A wetted silk handkerchief a piece of flannel, ora worsted stocking drawn over the face permits breathing, and to a great er extent excludes the smoke. 4. Ii you can neither make your way up war4s or downwards, get .into a front room ; if there k a family, see that they are all col lected here, and keep the door closed as much as possible, for remember that smoke -al ways -tollows' a draught, and lirealways rush es alier smoke. 5..0n no account throw yourself, or allow others to throw themselves, from the window. if no assistance is at hand, and you are in ex tremity, tie the sheets together and having fastened one end to some heavy pteee_offon. niture, let down the women and children one by one, by tying the, end of the line of sheets around the waist, and lowering them through the window - that is over the door, rather than through the one teat is over the area. You can easily let yourself doWn after the helpless are saw!. 6. If a woman's clothes should catch fire, let her instantly roll herself over and *over on the ground ; if a man be present, let hin► throw her down and do the like, and then wrap her in a rug, coat or the first woolen thing that is at hand. Remarkable Balloon Ascension. Wm. D. Baninistle, of Adrian city, Michigan, ascended on Friday, ina s ...„_Wloon, from that place, at I.ok in the morning, and descended, in Clarion county, Pennsylvania, at iii the afternoon, makinz the ‘7,omputed cl 4 ,Lai4ce of three hundred and fifty wiles in the Extraor dinary short time of four hours. This is his second trip, and an experimental one with a balloon of unusually large size. It is thirty feet in diameter, contains over six hundred yards of silk, and is capable of holding nine , teen thousand cubic feet of gas. Alter his as cent to the distance of three miles and a half, the teronaut struck the eastern current of air, which, he says, is continually bl o wing in the one direction. It carried him South of the lakes, through Central Ohio. llis intention was not to descend until dark, as he was above the rain clouds in a clear upper but the excessive cold to which he was exposed -brought on the accustomed , drowsy sensai ion, which prevented him from properly managing his balloon. lie was in that sleepy state when his -craft" anchored on a tree in Red Bank, - having descended in consequence Of the evapo ration of the gas. The cold was so severe that his feet were completely frozen.
