Attemßted Suleide—A Homage in Beal
Life—A Young Lady Takes Laudanum—
iler Lover Arrested and Committed to
4811.
Yesterday morning about nine o'clixd4
nipptDePfdr,
which ra i si i,d quite an excite , tent and tor
the time being relieved th monotony
which usually provalls at railro a d stations.
The excitement was caused by a young
lady of prepossessing appearance and,of a
very' respectable family; who it appears
sought to swallow a large dose of landa-,
mum, just as the. cars arrived at the Uniou
Depot, which doubtless would have proved
fatal bad not one of the passengers ob
served her take it and made the fact known
tii_fhe,condftetni, , who; hadlter itarrieA. into'
a roost, where the ;proper rentedies were
administered and the rash girl saved from
death. The, young lad,y referred to , is a
Miss from- Johnstown, who for
some time past has been visiting a relative
in East Liberty. At Johnstown she had
formed the aequaintaheelof a young man,
who became very devoted in his attentions,
and to whom, it is said, she' becatde en
gaged. . Shortly after her- arrival at East
Liberty a •Young man of that - plaee,quite '
wealthy, as we. are informed, commenced
paying his addresses to her, but with no,
encohrageinent from herself. ` Hit persisted,
and his gait was ..strongly favored by the
girl's cousin and friends. They urged her
repeatedly to marry her new suitor, but she
persistently ,refused. She- was not in
the least influenced by the "excellent
match" offered, but remained true to
her Johnstown attachment. A few
days since the young man from Johns=
town came to East Liberty to visit the young
lady. She received him cordially, but her
friends did nothing of thesort.'• They turn
ed an emphatic cold shoulder on him; ac
cording to the statements madeby himself
and the girl. He decided to'retttrn home
yesterday, and the ladyannounced that she,
would 'accompany' hirri 'to the city to see
him off on the train. Accordingly the two
started for Pittebtugh' on- the nine o'clock
Wall's accommodation train. Before
starting the lady sent a little girl toil drug
store in East Liberty for something, and
her hirer saw her receive a small package
which she placed in her pocket, but he
states that he knew nothing of its, contents.
On the way to the city she seemed much
cast down on accoant of the treatment her
friend had received at the hands of her . rel
atives, but so far as we could learn, said
nothing of an intention of committing sui
cide. Shortly- before reaching the depot,
the young man le'ft the seat and stood upon
the platform, and just as thetrain WAS ap
projaching•the plittform`some of the eladies
who sat near the girls saw.her take almall
viaffrom her pocket and
_quickly swallow
the contents. -This fact was communleated
to the conductor, and in answer to his
questions the rash girl announced that she
had taken laudanum. She was conveyed
to the office of Mr. Butler, Depot Master,
and Dr. Hamilton was sent fcir. As soon
as she• was seated comfortably; she asked
for pen and paper stating that she wished
to write some farewell messages to her
friends. Instead of complying with her re
quest,- those in attendance administered
copious draughts of warm and salt water,
which had the desired effect. When Doctor
Hamilton arrived the proper antidotes were
fidminisferecl, and a ft er working with her
until about four o'clook e last evening, the
effects of the deadly drug were counteract
ed and the unfortunate girl considered oat ,
of danger. She was removed to one of the
upper chambers in the hotel, whexe she
still remains.
The romance is not yet ended it appears.
The East Liberty lover, hearing of the of
Mir, came to this city yesterday evening,
and the result of his visit' was an informa
tion before Alderman Taylor by Jas. Bacon;
charging James Quinn with administer
ing poison to the earl with fekiniousintent.
Quinn was arrested, and being a 'stranger
in the eity, was : unable .to procure bail,
consequently he was committed to jail for;
a hearing on the Bth inst. There don't, ap
• pear to be much of a ease against him, how
' ever, as the facts the, case, from the
prosecutor's statement, appear to be about
as we have given them.
Ridiculous Attempt at Suicide.
An amusing incident occurred on the St.
Clair street Suspension bridge yesterday
afternoon, in the way of an attempted sui
cide. A man from Allegheny City, who it
appears has been on a protracted drunk
for several weeks, very senslblv concluded
that he was, not . fit to live, andxisely re
solved to drown his sorrows and himself
at one and the same time by jumping from
the St. Clair street bridge into the waters
of the Allegheny. Having fully made up
his mind to relieve his friends and the
community, of so great a burden, he re
paired to the centre of the bridge and pre
pared to make the fatal leap. Ile stood the
test manfully until he reached the jump
ing off place, when he gave way slightly.
He had succeeded in climbing on top of
the band railingg and was holding to the sus
pension wirel above all ready to make the
fatal leap, when he thtought it best to in
form 'some' one of his intentions, so that
his friends might km)* where to find him.
The gentleman he made the matter known
to very foolishly seized him by the coat
tail and prevented him'from taking a trip,
into eternity. When the rash man found
that he was foiled in his attempt, he be
camefurions in his efforts to free himself,
but not Withstanding the gentleman who
held him was much the smallest oT the
.two, it aid not appear to requiro mucirex-•
onion cu: his part to keep the would-be
suicide on the safe side of the hand railing.
He held him until assistance ar
rived, when .the disappointed gentleman
was taken to his home. We would advise
him to select a less public place when he
makes the next attempt, as such demonstra
tions are annoying to persmui crossing the
bridge..
The following facts relative to the death

' Hon. J. A. Bingham, the distinguished
gentleman recently nominated for reelec
tion to. Congress from the Cadiz district,
Ohio, arrived in this city on Saturday and
was the guest of Hon. Thomas Williams, of
Allegheny, until Sunday morning, 'when
he proceeded to Washington to resume hia
arduous and valuable labors in the service
of his country. Ohio is' justly proud of
Mr. Bingham and has, almost by acclama
tion, nominated- him fOr another term,
deemingit wiser to retain the services of
such a.represeutative than for the sake of
rotation to send an untried and less able

Base Ball—The Great Match To-morrow,
The Atlantic Base Ball Clubof Brooklyn,
New York, will be in our city to.morrow,
and will be thegueste of our much prided
home company. the Allegheny. •Ia the
afternoon at three o'clock a match game"
will be played between the two clubs at
Union Park, Allegheny City. Our hcapi
tally prompts us to invite everybody to
be present on the occasion. Excellent
playing may be anticipated as both clubs
enjoy and sustain high national reputation.
Most Bitters of the present day that are
loudly puffed through the newspapers as
having great curative properties are vile
compounds and base impositions, contain=
ing no medicinal virtues whatever, and are
really very poor whisky beverages. and,
instead of acting as a stimulant and tonic,
have a tendency to weaken the stomach by
entirely destroying the coating. The public
should therefore be very cautious and pur
chase none but Roback's Stomach Bitters,
which have stood the test as a remedial
agent fox many years, and are really as
their name' indicates, a stomach bitters and
not a beverage. They combine the
proper
ties of the best tonic and a stimin
lamatiVe, an efficient and anti-bilions agent
and the best stomachic , known to the world,
and when taken in conjunction with 80.
back's Blood Pills, are the safest and surest
preventive against all bilious derangements,
thoroughly regulating the whole system
and giving tone to the digestive organs.
They are highly recommended as an in
vigorating tonic to mothers while nursing,
increasing the flow of milk, and for conva
lescents, to restore the prostration which
always follows long-continued sickness,
they are unsurpassed. No household
should conaider themselves safe from the
ordinary maladies without these invaluable
medicines. They can be obtained of any
druggist. prsF
