SIwoui.a* Cause and Eifeci.—A sin-
Igular suicide was committed near
(Liwrunceburg, Indiana, lust week, by a
I Air. Joseph Grimsley, the cause of
which appears to have been depression
produced by the report of a dying
I orother, who stated on his revival from
la trance, believed to be death for a
| time by all who were about him, that
I he had been to heaven and seen there
I all his family who were dead, and learn-
led that all would go there except
I Joseph. This announcement coming
| from a dying—almost a dead brother,
I seems to have disordered the poor fel-
I low’s mind. He acted strangely for
|several days afterwards, and finally dis-
ppeared on Monday, week before last,
ie was not found till the Saturday
■following, when two men in search of
■game accidently discovered him swing
ling by the neok to a pole which crossed
la deep ' ravine. The sick brother died
| the same day the body was found.
IUltoiox or the JavaS’is*.— 1 The or-
I thodox religion of Japan is Sintoo—all
I worship the sun. Their belief is that,
Ithe world was regenerated through- the
■instrumentality and appearance on
■earth of a female, and after having per-
|formed this great and good work, for
Vhich by God she was ordained, she as-
sended to heaven and became; embodied
[in the sun. Their national flag is em
blematical of their religion, displaying
Its it does the sun in all its purity upon
lthe white field. There are other .sects,
Jind among them the most numerous
■would appear to-be followers .of Buddha.
■Many suppose that Buddhism is the
■principle creed, from the toot that its
■followers number three hundred and
■twenty millions; this and the Mahome-
Idan religion being the principal creed
lor religion of the nations of the East.
■ The founder of ilie Buddhist religion
I was a man called Sukya Sinha, who was
born, as was supposed, two thousand
four hundred and twenty years before
I Hie Christian era. It is not knowp for
I a certainty when Biiddhism was ' first;
I introduced into Japan. The statement.
I so often made that Christianity is not
I at the present in any way tolerated, is a
I mistake, for the Government is far
I from being intolerant in religious mat-
Iters. The people of Japan attend very
I little to religious matters. Religion is a
■matter of business, which is attended to
Itogether by the Makado and his
priests. Some of the Japanese attach-
d to the Embassy worship Buddha,
orae Sintoo, some Mahomet, and some
vorship nothing. The two Ambassa
dors and one of the interpreters are
Buddhists; the Censor has no particular
-oligion; the Vice Governor is partly
biintoo and partly Buddhut.
Abduction of Little Ella Bubnb.—
This remarkable little girl, who excited
Iso much attention in Philadelphia not
■long since, is missing, and a reward of
■one hundred dollars is offered, for her
■discovery. It will be remembered that
I the child, pending some litigation be-
I tween her father aud Mrs. Burns, to
I whom she was indentured; was placed
I by the Courts under the custody of a
I New York lawyer, who in turn caused
I her to be sent to a school kepjby^acler-
[gyman in this city. From: this '.school
■little Ella—whose real name is Eva Bell'
|W hit ton—was on the 21st of April in
veigled under false pretences by. Mrs.
[Burns. The child was dressed'ht/boy’s
clothes, and Mrs. Burns, in comjiany
with a man by the name of Dodge, were
graced to the Delevan House,. Albany,
there they registered their names as
Mr. Dodge, Mrs. Burns and ton. They
tore next traced to Buffalo, and there
, track of the party was lost,—Pkla,

The Code of Honor.
A writer in a Richmond journal gives
some interesting details of the customs
andmanhers of our present visitors.—
What are regarded as acts of extreme
politeness here, are deemed as acts
of savage rudeness in Japan. To
spit in the presence of a Japanese is a
mortal offence, and “spitting,” like
“whittling,” is an American “institu
tion.” Imagine, therefore, the feelings
of indignation, horror, and amazement
with which the Japanese ambassadors
will regard the expectorating perfor
mances of a committee of the Common
Council of New York, or a deputation
of Congressmen. As the Japanese
resent all the degradations and insults,
not by killing their enemies; but by
committing suicide, we fear that the
blood of the whole embassy of unhappy
strangers will be upon the hands of toe
first tobacco-chewing committee into
whose hands they may fall. The Ja
panese teim for suicide is “happy dea-
fi&tch.” The method of committing
the “happy despatch” is regulated by a
code of honor, to which all Japanese
gentlemen Conform. If ti Japanese of
good sooitil position is insulted, he at
once selects a long, sharp knife, drives
it up to the hilt in the region of the
“upibilioal cord,” and rips himself up
to the diaphram aud falls dead. The
Japanese code of -honor requires the
party who gives the insult to do precise
ly the same thing, and, as a consequence
of this invariably la al custom, the
gentlemen of Japan are proverbially
the most polite ana urbane men in the
world. If the cot-e in this country was
based! on sneb grounds, it would be u
long time, we imagine, before this city
would be excited over a duel, and Con
gressmen would become the most cour
teous people towards each other in their
official intercourse.
Militabv.—“Did the guard present
arms to you, Mrs- Partington ?” asked a
commissary, as he met her at tho
entrance of a marquee. “Yqji mean the
century ?” said she, smiling, “I have
heard so much about the tainted field,
that I believd I could deplore an attach
ment into line myself, and secure them
as well os an officer. You ask me if
the guard presented arms. Ho didn’t;
but a sweet little man, with an epilepsy
on his shoulder and a smile on his face,
did, and asked me if I wouldn’t go
into a tent and smile, I told him that
we could both smile as well outside,
when politely touched his chateau
and left me.”
