Suicide.

--On Sunday a singular and shocking suicide took place in Shenandoah county, Va. Jacob Copp, a respectable citizen of that county, while entertaining a number of friends at dinner on that day, excused himself, as it for a moment only, and retiring to his chamber, cut his throat with a razor, inflicting four severe gashes. No cause is assigned for the deed.
