Committed Suicide.—We regret to hear that the youngest daughter of Peter King, of this District, hung herself with a hank of yarn, on Tuesday of last week. For a week previous the family noticed that her mind was affected, but apprehended no danger. On Tuesday morning she attended to her duties as usual—brought water for her mother, and her father proceeded to the fodder field, expecting that she would come to his assistance as usual. Her not doing so, drew him to the house to ascertain the reason of her delay; not finding her there, the family became alarmed and made a search, when they found her suspended to a bush dead.
