Edward Leinou,a young artist attempt
ed suicide in Minneapolis a few days ago,
but was resuscitated. lie then went into
the oflice of the Republican. at Neillsville,
Wisconsin, on Friday, and told Editor
Ilofihiau, a friend, that he had concluded
to ilnish the job. Showing a bottle of
laudanum,he said that lie was going to do
it right there, and wanted Hoffman to sit
with liini. watch the effect, and write it
up in good shape. "It won't take long,"
said he, "as I have two ounces of laud
anum in me already." Hoffman treated
the matter as a joke, made an excuse to
go out and sent lor a doctor, upon whose
arrival Lemon angrily left. Meeting
Hoffman soon afterward, he followed him
to his office saying: "Von gave me away
before, but I have concluded to come
hack and die." He was followed by sev
eral friends who did not believe his sto
ry. One of them asked: "What shall we
say in writing up this affair?" "Oh" re
plied Lemon, "say that I died in the hope
of a blessed immortality,atul put in some
thing about the golden stairs. You
know how to do it." At this moment
the poison he had swallowed began to
take effect and lie fell back in his chair,
livid and helpless. Everything that phy
sicians could devise was done to save
him, but he died in a few hours.
A singular will was left by Charles El
liott, a wealthy farmer of Knox, -Maine,
who died there oil July l.">. Among the
legatees are two grandsons who share
equally with the children, .but who are
hampered by the following provision: "I
further bequeath and say that if Charles
or George B. Elliott, legatees above nam
ed, or either of thein or any of mv grand
children (though yet unborn) or their
children shall use tobacco in any form,
either to smoke or chew, or drink ardent
spirits or alcoholic liquors in any way
unless proscribed by a physician under
oath that it is necessary (and that not to
last but thirty days) after this my will is
approved by the Court, ai\d for cacli of
fence of using tobacco or alcoholic drinks
as aforesaid, to he cut off from their dow
er in my property for six months for tho
first offence, and one year for each subse
quent offence, and for one year of total
abstenance of its use, his or their dower
to be restored as before provided. Their
said share or share so cut off to be dis
posed of and divided the same as provid
ed in ease of their decease." A codicil
provides that gambling or betting money
or other valuable consideration shall car
ry the same penalty as the use of tobacco
and ardent spirits.
A Ladies' Silk Culture Association is
established in San Francisco auxiliary to
that in Philadelphia. It appears to be
equally careful to keep steadily in view
the fact that, while the raising of cocoons
may be of greater value as a secondary
occupation for small farmers and their
families, it does not promise such large
profits as to make it a subject of great
speculation. The trouble there as in the
East is to find a market for the products,
and the most obvious plan is to establish
"filatures," or places where the winding
of the filament from the cocoon mav he
taught. This will be done no doubt as
soon as the societies here and in San
Francisco can afford to do so, and in the
meantime it is worth while noting that
the raising of worms in California con
tinues to be entirely successful. One
farmer's wife was reported in June as
having hatched 30,000 worms from an
ounce of eggs. She kept them in a room
adjoining her kitchen and fed them four
times a day on mulberry leaves from a
mulberry grove. Any one who goes in
to the busine'ss must, of course, make
provision for a supply of leaves, just as
he must raise hay for his cattle.
Conflicting reports come relative to the
Pope's leaving Home. One dispatch as
serts that the rumor was circulated by
the Vatican to arouse the Catholics
abroad. The London Times' correspond
ent says that the Pope will ultimately go
to Malta. At Home he neither enjoys
liberty nor security and he is seriously
considering the subject. He has distinct
ly made up his mind that he will not tol
erate the slightest infringement 011 his
dignity, and should such an event happen
it would determine his departure at once.

This remedy is something new, both as to name
and composition. This is one of the wonders of the
world. This Byrup, 1 claim, is better and more
effective than any other ever offered to the ople of
America or any other country, and what 1 say of
this 1 can prove, This Byrtip, like the Pills, is
harmless and safe. It contains tto opium or other
narcotic poison, like the most Syrup, and is not dis
agreeable to take. Any child will take it. And it
will cure any and all inflammations arising from
Cold. It is superior to all others in every respect
and especially for the following reasons:
Ist- It will cure Croup every time.
2d. It will cure Inflammation of the Lungs.
3d. It will cure Quinsy.
4th It will cure Whooping Cough.
sth It will cure Bronchitis.
6th It will cure Hoarseness.
7th It will cure Sore Throat.
Bth It will cure any Cold.
9th It will cure Congestion of the Lungs.
10th It will cure any Cough.
11th It will cure Scarlet Fever.
12th. It is the best reined"' that anv one can take
for Consumption, and if taken in the first stage I
will guarantee a cure.
13th. It is perfectly safe for all ages as there is
nothing in its composition that can harm a child.
