This morning about 9 o'clock, a Mrs. Wil
liams, a highly respectable lady on Fells’ Point,
came near putting an end to her cxiatanec by
hanging. She lias been in a debilitated slate
for some time and in a fit of despon Lacy, at
tempted to commit suicide by placing a hand
kerchief over a beam and suspending herself ,
therefrom. Sue was however, fortunately dis
covered before the vital spark hud tied and after
a considerable time.restored to consciousness.
It is a deplorable case, and has cast a deep gloom
over her family and numerous friends. A more
successful attempt resulting in the death of the
party occurred this morning about f» o’clock.—
The unfortunate subject was a German Spclhold,
who had been indulging to excess in drink ami
at tho above hour, repaired to a grove near his
residence on the Hill, and accomplished his fa
tal purpose with a clothes line, which he fas
tened to a limb of a tice.

pening fruits; summer showers, and the twi
light rest in his little rustic porch, where the
perfumed Clematis weaved its graceful branches
into a dense shade.
How bright and beautiful seemed all nature
as
“On the heart of Jane a-smiling,
Lndye Summer lay asleep;
Birds and breezes, bloom aud beauty
Vigils o’er the Ladye keep.”
Her fairy wings fluttered over my country
home, and I heard as she nearer came, the wild
rush of Niagara's mighty torrent, and felt on
my check its scattering spray. In my dreams
I listened to a thousand echoes of "Les cloches
da Monastere," as they pealed at twilight’s
stilly hour over the mountain and valley, call
ing the children of toil from their labors to offer
up incense and prayer. I stood in my own
state on the broad bold summit of Lookout,
gazed on Tallulah’s falling waters, and roamed
too among tlie snowy columns of Mammoth
Cave, where myriads of stalactite pendants
sparkled in the lamplight like the rich jewels of
eastern splendor. 'The weird spirit lightly
bore me through its spacious halls of darkness,
over the waves of Echo River, on whoso banks
the sensitive cerens and deadly night shades
bloomed side by side, secure from the sun’s im
passioned gaze.
Oh! those were beautiful dreams! In a few
weeks they were to be realized, bright visions
cheered each passing hour, and when shared
with loving friends beneath Alma Mater’s time
honored roof, our happiness knew no bounds.
We talked of mosic, flowers, and charming tete-
a-tetes by moonlight, mischievous pranks, and
anticipations of great amusement on the way,
but, alas! wc knew not then of the gloomy
shadow whose black wings were spread over us.
Death came in sable garments and banished
those delightful anticipations, leaving behind
orphaned hearts and a broken, desolate home!

“ POPULAR SOVEREIGNTY.”
A friend who heard Hon. Linton Stephens
last Tuesday night in Atlanta, says he is a
squatter indeed, in whom is no guile, diploma
cy or qualification. Assuming Judge Douglas’
ground, that thc right of the people in a new
territory to regulate"their ow n local and muni
cipal concerns in thc-ir own way is a “ Gcd
given right”—inherent in the people, anil can
not be divested by the sovereign, lie went so
far as to say that even three inhabitants con
stituting the population of a new territory
might settle the slavery question therein. And
so they might, on Douglas’ doctrine. But
” | with less logical directness or less candor Doug
las hliuselfbalks this inevitable deduction, and
insists upiui a considerable number as necessa
ry to thc performance—“ say. ten thousand.”
But certainly numbers cannot add to or abate
the force of a light inherent in tlie citizen—
given to him, as Mr. Douglas says, “by God Al
mighty" and therefore superior to every right
conferred or duty imposed by any mundane au
thority.
’1 h • doctrine itself r. .luces the territorial pro
perty of the common government, purchased,
it may be, at a large expense, arid held in trust
by the General Government for the common
benefit of the people of all the State
condition of a mere waif, without proprietor or
owner, and subject to die disposal of whoever
first finds and appropriates it. If Judge Ste
phens’ three adventurers should happen upon
an uninhabited and unappropriated island of the
sea, they doubtless might land and set up that
God-given prerogative of regulating affairs to suit
themselves. But when they enter a territory of
the United States, they are upon land which hrs
a proprietor, (the General Government, in trust
for the States,) and is held by that proprietor
for specific purposes, and subject to specific and
binding obligations, among which, is the duty
to maintain the equal rights of the citizens of.
all the States to enter and occupy this common
territory, in peaceful possession of whatever
they hold as property under the Constitution
and laws of the United States.
Tiie dogma that, half a dozen, or as many
thousand first comers into a territory, can wrest
it out of the control of the Federal government
for this purpose, and by a system of local laws
or regulations estop free colonization, and vir
tually subrert popular sovereignty, by prevent
ing immigration, except it be such as they elect
to have, is mere squatter tyranny instead of
popular sovereignty. It is not a determination
of thc question by the people, but ayainst the
people. It is not a settlement of thc question
of slavery by the constituency of a new State,
but thc arbitrary decision of a few, before hand
and in advance, as to what kind of people shall
compose thc State and what shall be its social
status.

or convenience founded upon its climate, soil
and productions, which have been urged as the
main argument in support-of popular sover
eignty, but a snap judgment of tho few who
come first, (generally the most worthless por
tion of the population) and founded upon their
. mere individual preferences.
What is “ popular sovereignty” that great
boast of Douglas, in any liberal or common
sense construction of thc term ? Manifestly it
is simply this:—that the people who arc to
compose a political community should control
and fix its character. That is all any body in
tho South asks in this respect, so far as wc
know. Nobody asks or expects that a slave
organization shall bo forced on an unwilling
people. But there can he no popular judgment
or determination of the question until there is
a people to make it; and the time when it can
be properly made—the number fairly compe
tent to make it, are easily and rationally indi
cated by our laws and usages in relation to thc
admission of new States. Whenever there is suf
ficient population tor a new State, then there is
enough to settle the question whether it shall
be a slaveholding or a non-slaveholding State.
This is popular sovereignty, because there is a
people marking an independent decision for
themselves as a sovereign and independent po
litical community.

The Redelliox in China—Terrible Slaugh
ter.—It is estimated that in the capture of the

60,000 to 80,000 lives were lo6t. A correspon
dent of the New York Times, writing of the
slaughter, says:
Multitudes committed suicide rather than
meet the thickening horrors; or driven to des
peration by their terrors, whole families plunged
together into ponds or wells, rather than fall
into the hands of the ferocious savages who were
on thc sofa, hoisted thc youngster over her knee,
adjusted him in the position mutually familiar
to parent^, and children generally, when such
ceremonies arc to be performed, and gave him
a sound spanking. It is an interesting fact that
thc illustrious sufferer kicked and bellowed un
der the altiictive dispensation, quite as lustily
as children of a lowlier birth. Thc amazed si
lence with which the spectators witnessed the
example of royal discipline, was suddenly bro
ken by a tremendous roar of laughter, which
could not be suppressed by any thought of de
corum, respect for the queen, or sympathy for
thc victim of her displeasure. Thc explosion
called thc royal mother to a sense of her posi
tion, and having turned toward thc crowd fora
moment, face suffused with crimson, she hastily
descended into the cabin, and was seen no more
by thc expectant population.’’
