We Ihjve’to add tho immo of another vic
tim to the fatal passion of gaining. Cap
tain Ode had distinguished himself during
.ill" war* of Napoleon, and was beloved
and respected by all who knew him. Hetofi
tho army a short time after tho arrival of
il)« Bourbons, and went to a small estate he
possessed in the south of France, where he
remimed several years enjoying peace and
comfort. Business called him a few months a-
go to the capital, and ho was prevailed upon
by one of his friends, who then held the si’.tn-
t'on of director in ene of the principal insurance
offices m P iris, to become a receiver to the
comp my. L irge sums of m inoy were contin
ually pass ng through his hands; but, faithful
to his trust, his accounts were kept wiih tho
greatest punctuality. It i* no later thin lust
week that he was induced to pay a visit to
one of the hells in the Palais Rnyol, and it is
stated that it was for the first time in his life.
He could not resist the temptation, and staked
a. sum of money, which he lost. He repaired v
to the same place on succeeding days, and all
his money passed into the hand* of the banker.
In a letter which ho wrote to a friond four
days ago, he solicits him to lend a certain a-
mount, or that he w II not be able to rejd ice a
sum which belongs to the instiranra company,
ill it ruin tvil ensue, uud that he will not survive.
The letter did not reach his friend who was
absent. The cash account of tlm receiver was •
examined, and a deficit of several thousand
f incs was discovered. The unfortunate man
was arrested, and taken before the Commissar}’; N
'when his examination Was terminated, he Wits
conveyed track to apartments ho occupied in
the Rue do la Paix, for the purpose of having
them searched. He opened h's desk in the ’ ■
presence of the officers, and hastily seizing two -^y
pistols, which were ready cocked, he present
Perpetual Motion.—Mr. Lewis Babcock,
watch-maker at Ware Factory Village, has con
ktructed a machine of brass, of about eighteen
inches high and ten inches wide, which has
ed these weapons to their breasts, and told
them with a dreadful oath to depart quietly or
he would shoot them. Daring not to oppose
in, they departed with the intention of pro
curing assistance. In the mean tstpe, Capt.
Ode locked his door, and barricadoed it inside
with chairs and tables. Aftor this ho wrote
two short lettors, the one addressed to a friend,
and the other to his wife, who’was residing in
the country; nnd then placing the two pistols
to his head, he blow out his brains.
