Extraordinary Suicide- A fevr days since at the village of Box, in Wiltshire, an exciseman named Martin, shot himself at the instigation of his w ife, who waited upon him in

bed whilst he did it with the wash hand basin to catch the blood. The poor fellow was m id at ihe time, and could not recollect the fact further than that he bought the powder and loaded the pistol with a stone. His wife, in a very cooi and deliberate manner, opened the window to let out the smoke, in

Sore Eyes. The Port Gibson (Mississippi) Correspondent of the 20th ult. says. This singular disease has been prevalent in this country the whole summer season and this

fall appears to have assumed a worse type. In some instances of late the eye-balh swelled to bursting. This happens with one eye,

sometimes with both, in this neighborhood, an unfortunate lady is afflicted with the loss

of both eyes so completely that they can nev

er be restored. It appears to be a disease

peculiar to the country, and produced by lo

cal causes. Some parts of the country are

free from it. It generally goes through a family, yet does not appear to be contagious, for the town's people have not been affected, although holding daily and hourly communication with those who were. In almost

every instance the patient is deprived of

sight for five or six days. The eyes become highly inflamed, and generally accompanied by a slight fever in the system.
