A Sad Suicide. On last Sunday evening Miss Julia Scott committed suicide at White Pond, at the residence of her brother. Tho circumstances .as*told us were as follows : While her brother's family was at supper flic told a colored wo man 'who was in the room with lier'to go out and st ay uutil she called her. With one of her shoes in her hand she fc lowed the woman out of the door into the piazza, went to the water buck at and returned to tho room. Almost immediately tho re port of a gun was heard, and the startl ed family ? rushed into the room where thoy found vhcr body on the floor and the gun lying by it. One of her hands was blackened by thosmoko of the pewder and her clothing was on lire, it seems that after returning to the room sho had cocked both bar rels of the gun, placed the niuzzlo against her body and pushed tho trigger with her foot. The charge passed through her heart and came < ut just below the collar bono, pro ducing almost instant'death . Miss> Scott was about eighteen or twenty years of ago.
