The New York Herald states that Mr. E. P. Christy, the well known proprictor and originator of Christy's Ministrels, attempted to, and nearly succeeded in, committing suicide at his residence, 78 Bast 48th street, on Friduy afternoon. For six months pest Mr. Christy has been laboring under an aberration ef tind, being at times greatly depressed and fearing thet he shouldcome to want. The idea firmly possessed him that the South would be sue cesstul ia their rebellion against the North, and that the Seuthern armies would overrun the North and render his property valueless. No etlorts of his friends have sueceeded in eradicating this impression from his mind. On Friday afternoon he was sitting with his wife in the back parlor on the 2nd thoor. lis conversation was rational, bat as Mrs. Christy turned and left him fora moment he dashed through the window, striking violently upon the thagging of the court yard below, fracturing his skull, breaking one of his lower limbs, disloeating his right wrist, and injuring his spine so badly as to cause paralysis He was taken up for dead, but it was

It is of colossal dimensions, being eight | feet in height, and is altogether a noble piece of statuary. The figure is represented attired in the full uniform appertaining to the rank which the deceased held as Director-General of the Medical Department of the British Army, with the left hand supperted on the hilt of the sword, and the right resting on the waist belt. An ample military cloak haags gracefully over the shoulders, and falls in classi¢ folds around the statue. The details of the costume, including uumerous medals and deco- rations of merit, hung on the left breast, are well managed, while the figure itself is instinet with life. The manly, open, and highly expressive tea- tures are chiselled with startling truthfulness; the pose of the bedy is free and natural; whilst the idea of indomitable energy, under the control of high intellect and benevolent principle, so charac- teristic of the original, breathes unmistakeably out

To tHe Eoitok oF THe Examiner. Sia,— In vour paper, issued last Monday, you

‘have published an editorial on the subject of the | transaction of general business I ransit

recent despatch from the Duke of Neweastle, trans mitting to His Excellency the Lt. Governor the Bill proposed by certain Proprietors as au otier to their tenantry in lieu of the Award. In that editerial vou have stated that I am ‘“‘a consenting party to the iniquitous Bill;" and further you say, ‘ There de very little doubt in our mind that the Bill was framed by himse!f or ander hissupervision.”” I as-| sure vou there is not the slightest foundation in truth | for either of these stafements. I neither knew or | heard of the Bill until it was received here by bis Excellency the Licatenant Governor. Its Schedule, | it is true, contains, among others, my name, and al- though I feel the utmost indiffereuge to its effect on myself by appearing there, w hateyer may be the result of the bill, I may truly, upto this moment, | wav in the words of the Dnike of Neweustle, “ don't know on what authority it has been placed | there.” I have no intention of interfering with the free- |

dom of invention of your own, mind in your throw- | ing ont surmises to serve your political euds at any | seuton, when there may be a great dearth of facts, | but as you have made uncommonly free with my name in this instance, I have a right to let even your own supporters see that Lhave as yet diseover- | ed no reason to deviate in any manner from the course I have taken in my place in the Legislature | with reference to the Bilis passed List Session, | for the confirmation and carrying into effect the | Award of the Land Commissioners. It is for this} renson I addresx you, and not, by any means, to | diselain the merit which is, in my opinion, due to| the maiority of the present House of Assembly for whatever concession or value is contained in the Mill proposed by the Proprietors to the Duke of Deweustle.
