TIMARU,

Juqe 14. A man named Rindel was brought up at the R.M. Court yesterday supposed to be a lunatic, and was remanded for medical examination. He made a determined attempt at commit suicide yesterday afternoon in his cell. He had by some means secreted a little tin gem photograph, with which he opened the veins on his left wrist, and inflicted two or three bad gashes on his throat. He lost a good deal of blood before medical aid could be summoned, but is now doing well in a padded room at the gaol.

FEMININE CYNICISMS. ' The ultimate effect of marriage upon man is to make all woman appear lovely excopt her he has married.' 'No wondor two persons feel abashed when they stand at the altar, and promise to love one another for ever. They know they could not keep their promise if they would ; that they would not if they could. And while they make their voWs they are thinking of some delightful way to break them.' 5 We may love all our lives without satiety, -unless we marry. Then we have satiety without satisfaction.' ' Theism of Adam and Eve was eating of the fruit of the tree of knowledge, by which they learned for tho first time that they were man and wife. After that tbey lost all capacity for happiness ; the charms of Eden were in vain.' ' The fact that women who wed once and who are widowed are apt to wed again, only proves the force and the evil of habit.' ' Pity is near akin to love outside of wedlock ; inside of wedlock it is another name for contempt, and soon dostroys all hope of sympathy.' 1 Marry in haste and repent at leisure, is no trrov than marry at leisure and repent forever.' 'She who converts her lover into a husband transforms a worshipper into an intolerable despot.' ' Matrimony is the thorn on the rose of love.' 'Thopet is a place where marriage is eternal. Wedlock is not determined by the Eates, hut by fairies.' ' When wo go to the priest to be united, it is clear we are in danger of spiritual disunion.' * For the woman who has long been a wife, death has few terrors.' ' The couples who want children have already grown apart, and hope to be re-united through the offspring.' ' The brightest idea we have of heaven comes from thinking that there is neither marriage nor giving in marriage. 'No woman need despair of fortune so long as she remains nnwedded.' ' The way to Hymen's temple is over tho grave of love. When a wife has a secret to tell you, be sure it is the uncovered secret that she hates her husband.' ' How many persons marry a second time to revenge themselves for what they have suffered in their first experiment.' ' One of the gi'eatesfc faults in woman is her cowardice. She is so cowardly that she cannot or will not appreciate courage in her sisters. This she declares indecency, and so discourages the brave of her sex from showing any bravery.'
