VOL. LXX:KV. 1 LOG appears that - for some time past his mind has been deeply exercised by the subject of religion, and be spent his spare mo ments in reading the Bible. On Saturday this young man and a brother were en gaged together harrowing afield. Jacob was observed to go to a woodpile and pick up an old ax and examine it, without, however, laying anything which might lead to suspicion that he intended any in jury to himself. The rest of the family went to dinner, slid Jacob not making his appearance, his mother went in search of him when she found him lying at the woodpile, covered with blood, and one of his feet lying some twelve feet from him. The tourniquet was applied to the limb which checked the hemorrhage, but the patient was so much exhausted fromthe loss of blood that it was found necessary to wait three hours before amputating the limb—an oneration found necessary to reach the blood vessel'', which had con tractoi. The amputation was then se complished without further flow of blood, and the boy appeared to be doing well for a Tew hours, when he expired sudden ly. When asked why he thus muti lated his person, he replied that it pas necessary to the salvation of his soul, as Christ had commanded, that "If thy hand or thy loot offend thee, cut It of l fa ll nd cut it from thee." It appears tha „ er examining the axe at the wood pile, he got another one, which was sharper, and which he used, and after taking off the boot, and stocking, he put hlsleg on a block, Chopping off the foot at three blows. The first cut was made transversely on the leg, and severed both bones, a few inches above the ankle; the second, which was in a diagonal direction, and a little higher, also cut off both bones; the third completely severing the fibers of the muscle by which the loot still adhered to the leg. After the foot had been cut off he deliberately picked it up and hurled it some feet from him. The father of the young man who thus committed self destruction Is a well-to•do farmer, and dOes not belong to any church. The deceased was not a mem. ber of any denomination, though be oc• caaionally attended the Mennonite church, located In the vicinity where the melan choly affair occurred. 01110.

What, if anything, can be realized on these is not known. In giving some 1 of the caw .' of the defalcation the committee expresses the opinion that Kroeger obtained large sums of money from Belsky, knowing them to belong to the city; that their speculations amounted to hale a million, and that but 1 for Kroeger Sualsky'e deficit would have , been amply covered by his bond. They also recommend the notary of the City . 1 Treasurer be raised from 12,000, the present amount, to a sum commensurate ' with the duties and responalbillUes of the position. and that his bond be In creased from 160,000 to 1500,000.

Re also confirms thestor of some weeks since, of the arrival of, boxer of small arms addrened to well known Fenian mpathizers, in different sections of Vermont, but what disposition is made of them is unknown. - There is no doubt bt t that the Fontana mean to give toe Canadians considerable unessineas, even if they do not make an actual attack. To guard against any surprise or danger, 1 the Dominion Government has concen trated a large body of troops at Montreal, and In a few days there will be a strong guard along the whole frontier. • The Fontana In Boston and vicinity are quiet and disclaim all knowledge of any pro- paned attack on Canada.

It is intended that five of the above - Executive - omm. 1 ell shall resign, so that the New York Convention may elect four, leaving one member to be chosen by the other eight. In the Congress the Pope's bull was die. mimed, and elicited some warm obse vation..

RUMOR OF TROUBLE. A rather startling rumor has crept out Indicating some imminent prospect of a difficulty with Mexico. It Is known that the subject has been a theme of consid erable diestaution in the Cabinet, and it is supposed It relates in part, at leant, to the persistent violation of the United States revenue laws. Strong represents dons in regard to the matter have been made to the Mexican government but without avail. The loss to the Treasury by these frauds is reported to have been something enormous. The present rel. mor seems to imply that the War De partment will next take' a hand In the solution of the question which has thus far eluded diplomacy. RIVERS AND HARBORS. The House Sub Committee on Com merce have prepared a bill making ap propridions for the improvement of rivers and harbors. Among the sums agreed upon are for Des Moines Rapids 8400.000; Lonisiiile canal 1250,000; re moving obstructions and snags from Mississippi river and tri butanes 1150,000; for Ohio rlfer 850,000; and for the mouth of the Mississippi river 1300,000. • WASHINGTON, April 17, 1870. corIORBEHONAL BUSINESS.

General Rosecrans' prospect of success In the Mexican schemes before the House Mmmittee on Foreign Adak" seems very slim. The question of the non-pay ment of awards to American citizens. made by the United States and the Venezuelan Csmmission, has not yet been Considered by that Committee. The international meeting of the South American Republica, through their rep. peace with will be resentativers, tor the purp ose held In May. of making NOthing whatever has been done here towards the reopening of the Alabama claims question. Our Government will probably await the movements of Great Britain. Official Information is received of the apprehended Fenton designs on Canada, but there is nothing on which the Gov ernment can act. Many prominent gen tlemen believe the Canadian authorities are moved by fears rather than facts. GEORGIA AND TENNESIEn. A number of Georgians are. still here seeking to direct the action of Congress on the Georgia bill. Those seeking ea lion Smartie the partial reconstruction of Tennessee do not insist on .going farther than to pronounce the Legislature We gal, on the ground of fraud in allowing those not chinos to vote, blanks having been circulated by thousands to be filled up with the names of persons whose hands they reached.
