O,MITII,IICDITOILE•ND PR °PROCTORS TIIURsDAY, FEBRUARY 2, See First Page Horrible Suicide The Pennsylvanian of Monday, gives an accountof a suicide committed on board the ship Laurette, just arrived from Mar. !ilia. by one Inatatio de Cruz, between 19 and 20 years of age, a n ttive of East In— dies. He accomplished his purpose by cutting himself on the right side of his neck and also inflicting a severe gash in his abdotaen, canning the whole of his in— testines to protrude. It appears that he had made an attempt to kill himself on the 23d December, while on the voyage, when he cut himself on the left side of the neck. He also threatened to kill himself on Thursday night last, in consequence of which Captain Drinker kept watch up on him—but he succeeded the next morn ing, who an oppoituaity offered of con summating his design, with a small knife, the blade being scarcely twe, inches long. The deceased came with Captain Drinker in the capacity of ship servant, and was to return again to his native country. Ile appeared generally in fine spirits, and no reason can be assigned for his act except that he indicated as far as could be under stood that he was impressed with the uo. tion that the passengers and crew, looked upon him with distrust.—The passengers in the ship tear testimony to the kind treat ment the deceased at all times received from Captain Drinker, and are unable to account for the act except that the suspi cion of something wrung preyed upon his mind, and wrought him up to a state mel ancholy and despair. Darkness, a cure for Small Pox.—At a meeting of the French Medical Institution on the 4th of July last, M. Serres mention ed the following fact, which seems to favor the hypothesis of animalcules in small 'By covering each pustule with a glass capsule, which is kept for some days in this place, he has seen the process of eruption either go on or languish, or be completely abortive, according as the glass I was transparent or more or less opaque. This influence was evidently due to the contact of the air. The c xperiment, lie adds, was not merely curious, for it led to a modificati o n of some of the hygienic measures adopted in small pox. Previous ;ly patients were generally placed in Fi na tions as mell•a'red and light as possible; but now one knows that dat k situations are fat better for this kind of diseaFe, and that this change alone. is enough to ensure the must favorable ping! ess of its evolc. tions. The success at La Pitie was nev i er more complete than during one year . wl.en all the patients with small pox had of necessity to be put into a low, ill aired, dark ward—a sort of cellar.' The Line of French .?Mantic Steamers. —The line of Fr-nch packets to cross the Atlantic will, it is expected, commence running next June. The packets will be fourteen in number; they are built to car ry forty guns each, and will belong to the French government. The French port selected for the packet station is Cherburg. Four of the steamers rill run to and from New York, and the rest will convey mails and passengers to and from France and the Went Indies, Brazils, and the Gulf of Mexico. 'I he fare for passengers will be less than the charges of the English West India Mail packet Company. Exchanges—d Fact. —The Boston Post remarks that it is now eight years since the government, directly or indirect ly, has had any thing to do with regulating the exchanges. Tile result is, that during the past year, on all specie paying points, exchanges have been lower, more.regular, and more easy to be obtained than ever before, even under the best days of Ihe late national bank.
