---...--SUICIDE BY ELECTRICITY"
SUICIDE BY ELECTRICITY" Suiei :t: :;y eleclrkitv is the latest way of shuffl- ing off the inertr I < <>il in. Paris. M. Mercier, an electricusi. whose eeiility was to attend to patients suffering- ;I TI> nervous disorders by supplying them with gi lvnmc apparatus, lately grew very despondent owing to want of money. He had to subsist fox a time on the charity of his friends, but resolved to do away with himself, having observed previously to a neighbour that he could not bear his misfortunes. He arranged his electric machines so as to procure a strong current and then held the wires with his two hands. Death ensued speedily, and the body was found on the floor, the fists of the deceased being clenched, the legs drawn up towards the chest, and all the muscles contracted. Thevictim of self-destruction showed every appearance of having died a painful —if a prompt-death. In Mercier's rooms was found a collection of letters from patients whom he had treated by electricity. Some of the communi- cations were written by persons who praised his system, and asked him to call again; while others emanated from people who tLpbraided him warmly with having made them worse.

ACCORDING to a Melbourne correspondent, il seems that the veritable Arthur Orton has turned up in a lunatic asylum, and interest in the famoui TichbornJTcase is once more being revived. The asylum in which he is supposed to be it that at Parramatta. but in order to test the accuracy oi the matter, Warder Carroll, of Ballarat. has left for Sydney. Carroll, it appears, formerly served in the Carbineers, in which Sir Roger Tich- borne was an officer, and was an important wit- ness in the original trial of the great Tichborne case at Westminster. THE friends of the elevation of the unskilled labourer will be glad to see the satisfactory 4 financial position of the Dockers' Union. That body, it appears, now possesses an accumulated capital of over £ 6,000. The general experience has been that the more powerful trades unions become in organisation and resources the more careful will they be as to occasions of quarrel with their employers. With strength, in fact, and with something substantial to lose, come prudence and a rrowing sense of responsibility. There is good reason to hoj-e that this will be so in the Dockers' Union, whose leaders have already shown their anxiety to work for ttoe ends they have in. view by pacific means whenever possible. THE lazy Italian vagabond who has been sen- tenced at one of the London police-courts to fourteen days' imprisonment has been dealt with in a manner which will convince such persons that the Act p-issed not long ago for the protection of children is not likely to remain inoperative. No child under the age of sixteen is allowed to be employed under the circumstances made known at the hearing of the charge. A poor little girl •only nine years old was seen pulling a heavy barrel-organ through a torrent of rain while the mendicant foreigner was leisurely accompanying her, but allowing her to do all the work. A Jfecoud case, somewhat similar, in which an Italian woman was concerned, was afterwards investi- ted at the same court, and she was sent to prison r rl a longer period. These prosecutions were undertaken by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. DEAT.EES in tea may turn to Australia as a hopeful centre of business, but it does not appear to be essential that the teas should be of high value or delicate flavour. Strength of brew is appreciated, not delicacy of aroma. Unless Mr. D. Christie Murray, who writes on the subject in the Cerdeviperary, has lent himself to grotesque exaggeration, the drinking of tea is a positive vice In up-country places. On Sunday the men start operations with a clean pot and a fresh supply of tea. On the Monday these leaves, one day old, are sot removed, but fresh ones are added; and so from day to day the pots gets gorged with tea. and the liquid expressed becomes high in colour ■and acrid to the taste. But however undrinkable, apparently it is relished by the up-country men. We are not surprised at the statement that cases of deUriwm, tremens have been known to result from this indulgence in a%rew which should cheer but not inebriate. CHINA is not a very prosperous country, but it appears to have money to spare for what the peace-lover would call bloated armaments. It possesses a tolerably good fleet, even as ironclads go m power; and now the Celestial kingdom is bent upon an experiment with regard to its army. A deputation of Chinese experts is coming to Europe to study the merits of the various army rifles, and especially to make comparison between the weapon adopted by England and the Mana- licher of the Austrian service. Seme light on the good qualities of the Maimlicher weapon ill.s just been afforded in Chili, where the army of the Coa- gres-gists hns effectually put to rout the supporters of Bi !in,- ce:].t. The soldiers oi the revolution were » armed with Mannlicfcer rifles, and they hi;d e advantage of smokeless powder. i'r,ni wLat we at present know it cannot be said thr t this weapon, mainly contributed to the viutcry, but it must have been of material assistance.

At prmut we are tit*ly without anythi3ag like detailed informa- 4 =I, but on the face of it the oase appears to be a very serious one. Assuming that murders have n committed, and that the evidence on this point Is complete, it is surely a brutal and bar- barons method of exacting justice to shell a number of villages, involving to many inneeent persons %he destruction of their homes and perhaps the loss o4 their lives. We oan hardly imagine that her ilaiesty's cruisers can pour shells into 314tive villziges without appalling in-?urv to life d i au ti2nb: It is also important for the public to k. ,whether cruisers are at liberty, without instruc- tions from hOl-e, t8 treat people th whom we are not at w4vx in this nummary fashion.

IMPORTANT NOTICE I THE Attention of the Public is hereby called to the unprincipled and dishonest attempts >of some Tradesmen to substitute preparations for GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS, of which Mr. Gwilym Evans is the sole inventor and patentee. These men have no brains to invent, but are mean and cunning enough to try to copy the inventions of others, and this they do as far as they think the law will permit. Now, the men who try to substitute a worthlets, and per- haps injurious medicinal preparation for another of acknowledged repute and efficacy, are deliberately trying not only to injure and defraud the proprietors of the medicine, but also to deceive and eheat their customers: and if they are capable of resorting to such mean and base practices in a ease of this sort, it is but fair to infer that they will try to deceive their customers in all other < instances when an opportunity offers, and that they are therefore unworthy ofpublic confidence. GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS has been before the public for nearly twenty years, and during that period its efficacy and medicinal properties have successfully stood every test made of them by per- sons competent to judge of its merits. PURCHASERS are requested to note and remember the foBMring facts, when purchasing Quinine Bitters No Bottle is sent out without the name GWM.YM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS" blown into the glass. No Government Stamp is attached without the name "GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS" engraved on it. No Label is affixed without the name" GWILYK EVANS' QUININE BITTERS" printed on it. Any preparation offered under the title of QUININE BITTERS," but which does not bear those tokens, is a SPURIOUS AND BASE IMITATION. | AFTER THIS NOTICE, we hope that if any purchaser is offered any other pre- on substitute for GWILYM EVANS' QUININE Rir ti as a ERS on the plea that it is eq,ually as good and -much cheaper; he will decline, and refuse the same with the indignation of one who is aware that HE IS BEING IMPOSED UPON. It is to be hoped also that Purchasors and Tradesmen generally will use their utmost endeavours to discoun- tenance and put down these fraudulent and dishonest practices.

ffRIGHTFUX. SHIPPING- DISASTER. The mail whirfu has just arrived frami Japan brings-news of an awful shipping disaster off the Japanese coast by which more" than 260, persons lost their lives. It took place at 3 &.mt on the 12th of July in the:Shirakami Bay, off the eoast of Yezo, the most northern island of the; main Japaneser group. Two steamers—the Tamaye and the Miyoshi—which are engaged in the Yezo trade, and whioh belonged to rivalowners, were crossing the bay on the morning in question, the Miyoshi steaming: at a high rate in osder to paa» the] Tamaye, which, in per turn, was making every effort to avoid being beaten. For some reason, the former appear to have steamed across the Tamaye s-course, and the latter, seeing that she was in danger of being struck on the port, tide, stopped her engines- It was too late, however, to avert a catastrophe. The Tamaye was struck ic. the neighbourhood of her machiuary, and on.; ex. plosion immediately occurred. Within four minutes the vessel sank, taking down with' her not only her crew, but 326 fisherman, who were on their way back from, plying their occupation else- where. The cries of the unfortunatelsuff-ererw-ivere terrible. The only persons saved were those who happened to be on deck at the time: of the collision --sixty-odd men, They were found floating in the aea and ware rescued by the Miyoshi. There Was no time to launch a boat from the- Tamaye, and over 260 lives were lost in her. The unfortunate fishermen, who were on their way. home, were from the neighbourhood of Aomori" and Akiti in the main island, whose habit it had been to go every spring to Yezo and the neighbouring islands for the purpose of finding employment in the herring fishery. The season being over, they were on their homeward route, carfyihg with them about £ 4 a man, more or less, which they had saved, and which they were taking; to their wives and children. When the news of the calamity reached Aomori and Akita, the greatest coaster- nation prevailed. The families of the men who were absent hastened to Hakodate to inquire at the office of the owners of the vessel whether their relatives were alive or dead. The small steamers plying to Yezo are said to be too- old to be sea worthy, and others have their machinery in a bad condition. More especially at the time of the herring fishery, when men leave their heroes in numbers to take part in it, the steamers set no limits to their passengers, but pack them on board without any thought of the vessel's carrying capacity.

A LIONESS AND TIGER FIGHT Whilst at Cerne, a small town in Dorset, bos.. tock's Menagerie was the scene of a fierce and fatal fight between a tiger and a liomess. By some mwuiii the tiger obtained access to the lions' cage, and attacked a handsome and valuable lioness. The latter, which was a young an al, proved UU. 'In equal to the attacks of the fierce tiger, and it was frightfully injured. The fight lasted some time, and caused the greatest excitement among the other beasts of the collection. When the animals were parted, it was found that the lioness had a broken jaw, and had sustained other injuries so Mrious that the owher ordered her to be shot. The tiger was also badly mauled.
