DR,

learn from the Philadelphia liquirer'of
a recent date that Dr. C. L. Vance at-
tempted suicide in the penitentiary.
The unfortunate man felt his degrada
tion keenly when he was putting on the
convict's uniform. He trembled very
much; and with evident emotion declared
that his fate was a hard one. On the fol
lowing day, last Wednesday, (after his
imprisonment,) he withdrew to the little
yard .adjoining his cell, taking with him
the knife which be bad used at his din-
ner,' and made an attempt to sever his
femoral artery. With a duo regard for
-the—likelihood of such — attemptshe - au --
thorities do not band around to the con
victe knives very well calculated, by their
keenness of edge, to advance a case of sui
cidal dissection, and the •doctor therefore
found his work a difficult one. He man
aged, however, to so multilate and hack
himself that a weakening loss of blood
ensued, and in a half unconscious state
be sank back exhausted. His groans at
tracted the attention of a keeper, who
.quickly secured the services of Dr. Bul
lard, of the Penitentiary.
The wound was proMptly attended to'
but not_ • m' z_ 9 •

out of danger until Sunday. He now

"On the stand in his cell Dr. Vance
had left a note addressed to Warden
Townsend, requesting the latter to tele

to have his body taken to his former home

Vance had written and addressed to his
mother and which s . owed strawy] that

'lt seems impossible to exaggerate
the amount of destruction caused by the
recent storm, which swept the coast of.
Nova Scotia. For three days an uninter
rupted story of disaster and loss of life
has been reported from Halifax, and the
end is not yet. The loss to the shipping
interest is simply enormous, and no one
can fix the number of lives which perished
in the raging sea. One hundred vessels
went ashore at Cape Breton; at Canso
every vessel in the harbor in high and

fleet of three hundred fishing vessels only
twenty remain, and dead bodies are
floating ashore daily.

however, that the young girl, who is said
to-be of good family and quite prepossess

Mrs. Hays, about two weeks since from
the Beaver Creek neighborhood. The Cor
oner's Jury rendered a verdict on, Thurs
day evening after an examination of some
fifteen or twenty witnesses. Facts of such
importance were elicited AS to justify the
following verdict "Louisa Ross came to
her death by reason of abqrtion practiced
upon her person at the house of one Su
san Hays, in Hagerstown, and that the
said Susan Hays was principal and John
McCauley and others, to the• Jury afore

BAD Boys.—Our town Constables may
be regarded, in the general acceptation of
the term, as efficient officers, but they
lack in one particular, and it must be re-
garded as a very important one in the
minds of the well disposed portion of the
community.. We refer to the unbridled
license granted boys on the street after
night. It is true—and we say it for the
credit of the town—that our community
does not count many bad boys, but there
are still a scattered few, who often make
the still hours of the night hideous with
their boisterous and unnatural yelping.
It ought to be the duty of somebody to
suppress these weekly carousals which are
enacted under the cover of darkness. If
the whereabouts from which they draw
their supply of "bug juice" cannot be as
certained, they can be made atone for
their misbehavior by fine or imprisonment
in the Lock Up, or both. Nothing short
of such a course will abate the nuisance.
PERSONAL.—Rev. P. J. Campbell, for
merly pastor of the Lutheran congrega
tion. is at present on a visit to his friends

Lovely babe how brief thy stay,
Short and hasty was thy day,
Ending soon thy journey here,
Pain and grief uo more to bear.
Pillowed on thy Saviour's breast,
Sweetly sleep and softly rest,
Soon the morning shall restore
The buried babe we now deplore.
