A Young Clerk in a Wall Street Bank Shoots Himself Through the Heart. A Melancholy Case—Neither Love nor Liquor nor Lack of Integrity. * about half-past twelve o'clock yesterday after noon the clerks and officials of the Bank of New York, corner of Wall and William streets, were working diligently 1n their quiet, methodical way, when they were startled by the intelligence that one of thetr number had done @ deed of violence upon himaeif within the precincts of the building. A few moments’ consternation and-excitement prevailed, afier which an ominous stillness pervaded the es- tablishment. Soon afterwards the Coroner's office at the City Hall was entered by a stupid police- man of the Broadway squad, detailed for private duty at the Bank of New York, accompanted by ® physician, who occasionally gets summoned from the Astor House to atvend ex- tremej cases. Both were so utterly unnerved, or 80 Overcome by other incomprehensible feelings, as to be unable to give more information to Coroner Herrman than that his presence was re- quired for some purpose or other at the cormer of Wall aud William streets, After vatniy endeavor- | Ing to extract from this precious pair ever one tu- telligent reply to a long striag of questions Coroner Herrman, accompanied by Deputy Coroner Dr. John Beach and the HERALD reporter, proceeded to Wall street, Entering THE BANK OF NEW YORK, they were met by the officials of that institution, who whispered mysteriously that a clerk of the establishment had committed suicide up stairs in the water closet of the building, Thither the party proceeded, and found the victim stretched at fall length on the floor of the toilet room. He was dead, but no marks of violence appeared, Dr. Beach re- moved the unbuttoned front of the shirt of tne dead man, and found that the unfortunate, after unbut- tontng his outside {ae had freda proved through his undershirt into his heart, the ball entering one inch beiow the leit nipple and an inch to the left of median line in front of the sternum. From tho oft cers of the bank it was ascertained tnat the de- ceased, A HANDSOME YOUNG FELLOW, was an assistant bookkeeper in ‘the bank, named Rufus Kipley, aged twenty-three and a native of New Jerscy, who had for some time veen laboring under neuralgic affections, and who had mentally suffered much in consequence of the recent death of bis tather from softoniag: of the brain, and @ personal as well as a sympatnetio grief with nis mother and gister, whose sole support he thus became. Young Ripley was evidenuy & gene- Tal favorite in the bank among the officers and em- ployés, many of whom vainly endeavored to keep the tears from blurring their busincss transactions during the afternoon.

In other words, the Tatlroads ate required to pay in four per cent (in bonds) of the amount now outstanding against the solvent railroads, Virginia consols advanced to 66%, on the prospect of a veto by the Governor of the bill staying founding and interest payments, The agents of Alabama will pay the interest.on tne regular State bonds, and a des- patch says Louisianais ready to pay the January interest as usual.

At a special meeting to-day of tho Erie Railway Company the officers presented their annual report, which will bo found in full m another column. The business of the road during the past six montns was deemed capable of allowing a resumption of dividends on the preferred stocks. Accordingly a dividend of 3}, per cent was declared on the pre- ferred stock, payable January 31, 1872, the transfer books closing December 30, 1871. STOCKS STRONG. The stock market was quiet, and, after consiaer- ablo uncertainty and hesitation, finally became firm, in sympathy with a sharp rise in Wabash and West- ern Union, which, quite late in the day, went up side by side to 70%. Wabash has been higher within the week, but in the case of Western Union this price ts the best made in many years, Erie sirengthenea to 82% and Reading to 111%, but (be changes otherwiso were not of much importance. The dénouement in Erie preferred and the sale of @ “pul” or 15,000 shares of common stock to-day at 31 for thirty days, as well as the conference of Dantel Drew aad Jay Gould, referred to in the HERALD a day or two since, would indl- cate that Erie is about to be the subject of an active speculation at no distant day.
