 WASHINGTON, January l2.

 It is now II, at night. The Jury in the case of Richard White have been locked up since one o'clock this morning, and have not yet returned their verdict.

Ifsuch be the fact, the prisoners fate will depend on the physical stamina of the parties.

 Melancholy Suicide.-Last Evening, at the Pearl street House, young man by the name of Horatio Young of Sanbornton, N. H. com- mitted suicide by taking arsenic. He came with his wife to this city on Monday last, with view of finding employment as a machinist, Failing in that, he applied to MT. Shephard nnent for himself and wife. Mir. s. at once engaged them both, and yesterday they com menced their service and wrought through the day. At six o'clock in the evening, Young suddenly left the house, and it seemt, went to jewellers shop, and inquired for pistols, took pair in his hand, looked on them while, and then threw them down, with an exclamation of horror, and left the shop. He then went into several apothecary shops asking for arsenic. At length, he procured in Hanover street, an ounce ofthat poison, which he took in some wine procured at other pla- ces. As soon as he had swallowed the draught, he returned to the Pearl street House, and was the first person to communicate his own fearful condition to his distracted wife. The best medical aid was immediately called. and every possible effort was made by the physicians and Mir. Shephard and family to afford him relief.

Their friends and connexions in New Hampshire are very respectable. No cause can be assigned for the commission of this rash decd, except perhaps, his disappointment in not finding employment at his own trade. The distress of the young wife when she be- came sensible that his death must suddenly ensuc, and the agonizing shrieks she uttered as she clung convulsively to the body of her husband. even after he ceased to breathe, was ono of the most appalling scenes of mental suffering ever witnessed.-Boston Trans.

 Lefi Eye. Right Eue. | NAPOLEON. EMPEREUR. 1 EMPEREUR. NAPOLEON. These are traced in the above sized letters, although all the letters are not equally yisi- ble, the commencement NAP and EMP being most distinct. The color of the letters is al- most white, and at first sight of the child, they appear like rags, which make the eyes appear vivacious and sparkling. The accuracy of the inscriptions is much assisted by tho still ness of the eye on its being directed upwards, as to an object on the ceiling of the room, &c.,; and with this aid. the several letters may be traced with the naked eye. This ef- feet is accounted for by the child's mother It was given to her by her brother, previous to long absence; and this operating upon her mind at particular time in her life, has produced the appearance in question. It was visible at the child's birth. and has increased with her growth.
