October S, 1878, TRE SurcipE OF DR PETERMANN, THE GERMAN GEOGRAPHER.—A Bertin dispatch to the New York Herald confirms the report that Dr. August Heinrich Peterman, the dist: gulshed German geographer, did not die from an apopiectic stroke, a3 was at first reported, but committed suicide, being drivea to dis- traction by bodily suffering, caused by bron chitis and mental excitement of a domestic nature. According to the Herald’s dispatch, on the morning of the 2th ultimo Dr. Peter: man, after a restiess night, requested his wife and daughters, who had’ tenderly watched over him during the night, to retire from the Toom, which they did. They did not remain absent long—searcely fifteen minutes, wien, en their return, Dr. Peterman was found harging limp and lifeless from the window. Assistance was hastily summoned, the body Was cut down and restoratives tried, but he Was dead, and crumpled in one of his hands with the clutch of death was a paper. It was a letter addressed to his youngest dau, chter, and contained his will. lt bore the date o! ‘Sep. tember 6, showing that he had harbored the fatal intention for nineteen days. The ais- — further states that Dr. Peterman had ived unhappily with his first wife, from whom he was divorced ia 1577, since which, it is charged, she has bent her endeavors to destroy his peace of life, particularly since his mac riage to his present wife, four months azo. In bis own family, too, he had trouples, his father and his brother having died by their own hands. TuE SHERMAN Famiiy —It is absolutely un true to say that Generali Sherman is embi!- tered against the Catholic church because his son joined the Jesuits, and it is bratal to i uate that young Sherman’s choice has ‘turbed in any way the peace of the family. Tn _a letter to his amiable and aceomplishe: wife, dated Santa Fe, N.M., August 20:h, Gen Shhrman speaks in high terms of the courtesy and kindness of Bishop Lamy, and describes a_visit Which he paid to the residenea of the bishop. He also deseribes, with evident inter. est, the progress made by the r Santa Fe, and tells his beloved © of the grand new cathedral of sione wh piace the old wooden structure th ed two hundred years ago.

Buitz, who urished at Richmond during the reign of Wells, Canby & Co. Well, he not only s‘ill lives, but wants the colored voters of Charies- ton, South Carolina, to send him to Congress. To a reporter of the News, however, the other day, he said: I don’t exactly know just yet whether I will be a candidate for Congress before the republican convention or not. It Gepends entirely upon circumstances. You see Mackey and Tait have the inside track on me. Bowen promised me before I left here that if the race was between me and Taft he would keep his hands off. But you know | wa away, and kept away by sickness, and since I have returned I find that Bowen has gone back on me, and is now adyocating the claims of Taft—[Richmond Whig. CuarcED With Mcrper or Her Iivs- BAND.—Mrs. Margaret Mooney and John Sex- ton, of Perineton, Monroe county, N. Y., have Veen arrested charged with the murder of James Mooney, husband of Mrs. Mooney, who with Sexton, endeavored to obtain the permis- sion of a Catholic priest to have the deceaced buried at once, but who suspected somethin: and sent for the coroner. Sexton and the wo- man had been suspiciously intimate for seme time. It was proved that Mrs. Mooney had purchased four ounces of arsenic on the 27th of September, and on the day the Mooney died had obtained 15 grains of strychnine at another store. The stomach of deceased will be analysed. A STRATAGEM IN HoLMAN’s INTEREST.—A special dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette from Liberty, Ind., October 4, says: A rumor has just reached ‘here that “Chan.” Jeffries, the greenback candidate for Congress in this district, has withdrawn in favor of Holman, the democratic candidate. Jeffries left Rich: mond very suddenly last night, and it is prob- able he is now in the back country arranginu: matters. This movement has been antici: pated for some time past. Upon the heels of this report came the “watch dog,” Holman, inte town, and he is, at the present writing, closeted with the democratic moguls, arrang- ing. doubtless, for the consummation of the scheme. Holman came from near Richmond, itis supposed. He travels in a buggy alone. Union county has but about 25 greenbackers of republican antecedents, while quite a num- ber of democrats will vote for Browne this year from personal choice. CRIMINAL ELOPEME: -A special dispatch from Pittsburg, Pa., October if says: A soci- ety sensation has just come to light here which involves two or three of the wealthiest and most prominent families in the city. It a ieer that the wife of a well known mer- chant left her home two weeks ago last Moa- day, ostensibly for a trip to California on ac- count of poor health, but. in reality, to elope with a young fellow of 22 who has for some time been noticably attentive to her. The lady in the case is about 25,is noted for her beauty and accomplishments, and is a petite bionde. She is the daughter of a prominent lawyer, and has held a good position in societ; before thisafiair. The young man whois sai to bave fled with her is chiefly noted for his eee looks and great expectations, his father ing very wealthy. A rumor prevails that the lady took $10,000 of her husband's mone, With her. Detectives have the case in hand. The couple, whose names cannot be given at LU BSeeen! are believed to have gone to Canada. eh developments are expected in a lew days. CONGRESSMAN A. C. HARMER, of Pennsylya- nia, met with a painful accident in Philidel- ed Saturday night, rupturing one of the bres of the muscles of his right leg. The injury, although not of a dangerous character, will necessitate his remaining ina sitting posi- tion tor several days. STABBED THE WRONG WoMAN.—John Car- penter, while intoxicated Sunday morning, entered St. Francis Xavier’schurch, New Yor! city, and, without Warning, plunged a huge knife into the abdomen of Mary Logan, whom. he took for his wife, from whom he has been separated. Carpenter was locked up to await the result of the woman’s injuries. 4#@-Great Cxsar!
