Attempted Suicide.—Yesterday afternoon J. Sam Gott, a painter, residing in second story rooms on the north side of the Court House square, and who di« vides his time between drinking benzine whisky and spreading benzine paint, attempted suicide by a dose ofj strychnine^ which he purchased at Dr. Pence's drug store. He swallowed the poison a few minutes after one o'clock, and immediately informed his wife what he bad done. He had been threatening for a couple of weeks to put an end to his life, and Mrs. Gott at first supposed he was only attempting to frighten her, but it was soon ascertained that the man was terribly in earnest this time. Medical assistance was immediately summoned. Drs. Young and Peyton came with a stomach pnmp, but the man was so violent that the pump could not be operated, and a powerful emetic was administered. This had the desired effect. Last evening he was resting quite easy, and we hope that the glimpse Mr. Gott got of death's portail mnv prove beneficial to his future conduct.

An Eminent Engineer's Opiniour?. 5 B. Wi' inrtes as fellows to fiie "World," of August 2d, on thfi subject of narrow.^tuge railroads:

Having just received the following interesting contribution to our stock of scientific railway construction from 'a highly scientific and practical engineer, w£ hasten to lay it before the public. The arguments of snch a man will carry: weight in the country and with the Gov* ernment, now called on todecide whether the South Pacific Railway Company shall have the privilege of adopting a 3-foot-gauge. It is understood that the directors of this company, composed of eminently practical railway men and financiers, have unanimously declared in favor of that breadth of gauge.

Mr. Fairlie, writing from London under date of the 12th July, says, referring to our article of the 5th June. "Your letter accords with my views. I' shall be happy to do all I can to assist you in promoting cheap and efficient railways in America. I note that on your side of the water, anxious and all as you are to go ahead, you have jour procrastinators, vested interests, and prejudices to overcome just as I have here, although to a very limited extent comparecLwith thi»- country Chir success inRussia on the narrow gauge is most complete—345 tons taken up an incline of one in eighty for five miles is not bad for light double bogie engines on light rails but what is of the greatest importance if, that oat of the 345 tons 254 tons are paying freight. This is 2.78 paying tons for every one ton of dead weight. "In your country, according to what I see published, the proportion of paying to deatl"i8 One to one, so that while we carry 254 tons in 91 tons of wagons, you would'require 254 tons of Wagons at least' to give the same results. The Fairlie enginetand light rolling-stock on. a three foot giuge will' perform a greater duty than any broad gauge you have—you are at liberty to select your best I don't care which it is and whatji more, there will be'Considerable economy in doing it. And pray bear this in mind, that the narrow gauge is more capable than the broad-

have just noted your last remarks on capacity of gauges. You are not quite qorrect in this. A three-foot gauge, worked on the Fairlie principle, whether single or double line, has a far greater' capacity than a four-foot-8 Jinch, sixfoot, or seven-foot gauges'"

What we claimed was simply equality* of capacity, the various gauges being worked on' the same plan... But- Mr. Fairlie. claims that the four«foot-8t-inch. gauge worked on his. plan will^be

greater capacity than the thrraJoot worked the same way. On- the~efher hand, it has been shown by the Massachusetts Legislative inquiry that the little 23iinch. Festiniog railway does, more work per mile than the best-worked line in that Commonwealth.'

The local interest attaching to the subject of which thiei above article treats renders it desirable.. that our citizens should have all the information thereon thftt can be gathered from the observation and experience of practical railroad men.

Cincinnati &^HbWe feailroaH The following isT the petition which is being circulated among our citizens, and 'which will be presented:to the Common Council as soon as, the. required nuwbep of names are secured:

To the Mayor and pompon $rme^ lfthe Oily of Terre Haute: The unctersigned ^eajdemt., freeholders withm tlie-corporatelirtits of said city, would respectfully represent to your honorable body, that the future prosperity of this-eity, as they verily believe, dependr in having established in its midst, alt kinds of manufacturing establishments, which will swell the population and bring capital.and labor into H,

They further believe that this can oiily be done by giving to the people cheap food, cheap fuel, cheap building material, and cheap transportation for all articles shipped^ either lof or from' the city.

The Evansville "CJottrrer'.' of Saturday gives this account of the death of a woman who formerly resided in this city and is well-known here:

About nine o'clock last night, a woman named Mollie Anderson, living :-»t. the,' house of Fred. Hammer on Chestnut street near Fourth, died from the effects of a dose of strychnine. Persons living at the houae say that at about six o'clock she complained of feeling unwell, and said she would take a dose of morphine and get a good sleep ai she hadn't rieptmiich for tne two nights previous. She went immediately to bed and shortly after was seized with convulsions, and at about nine, died. It seems there bottle of sfryclinine in the^ house, which was thought to be morphine, and which had been brought there by a little girl in the house. An inmate of the house on the evening beforehad a-eore thumb giving her intense pain, and took some of the supposed morphine to ease the pain. She was suddenly overcome with a numb sensation, and lying on the floor slept soundly, until the drug produced a feeling of nausea, when she vomited it out, which act, a physician said, saved her from death. The unfortunate woman was from TerreiHante,T^h^| h^r mother, a widow, still lives." 0|i :TBIAL foji. PEBJOBX.—?Wm..
