CONSIDERABLE OF ROGUE.-Tne Chester (iiL)
Mssons have passed resolutions expelling one DR..
VIM. A. Gordon for gross immoral, uumasonic, un.
pr fess,oDsl end ungentiemaply conduct. The his
tory OF the case presents one Of the most dab ,ica
acts OF viilainy ever peipetrated in civfzsd COM
munity. The following particulars are derived from
gentleman WHO has long been intimate With the
parties. This Gordon graduated in one of the medi.
Cal schools Of this city, and removed 30 Chester with
Dr.. Ferris. he has an amiable wife aud several
disiiked Gordon, and they remained enernies until
the death Of DR.. Ferris. Gordon then made friends
with young Ferris, and became intimate with q
beautiful young lady to who he was engaged to be
maried. Ferris removed to Cincinnati, and during
hs absence, Gordon used every art in his power TO
e duce the young girl; but falling In his hellish
desiene, be administered certain drugs. and thus
tiiumpbed over her virtue. BY threats Of exposure
he forced her to continue the criminal connection
ard received from her letters ackno vledging her
guilt. short lime ago, Ferris returned to Chester
and thinking his betrotbed still Innocent, married
her. Gordon, who had never really forgiven Fer
r;s the injuries Of the past-plaoed package Of
bis wife's letters in his way, winch told the whole
story OF her crime. His first thought was TO take
the lie of the destroyer OF his peace but no. meet
ing him, and rejecting that his wife might be
equally guilty, he left tee village and has never
tu,n ned. The excitement growing out of the affair
was intense, and the Mas0ns promptly expelled
Gordon from their Lodge The case Is one in which
the severest penalties OF Lynch law would be justi
fable, and we sincerely hope that the brutal fiend
him, and be should be hung withou; Judge Or jury,
TO the highest limb in Chester Buff. The ruined
wife andeher destroyer remain in the same town
she IN object Of pity and msse ration, he hated
and condemned by oil who know him. he is known
In this city, but we advise him to keep away he
too severe for such black hearted miscreant.--

Gubernat0rial.

The St. Francsvile Chronicle, Of the 10th,
thus concludes sensible article in reference
to the yubernatorial election, candidates, etc.
The exrac,s are worthy consideration:
Thepeculiar fitness, both in an intellectual
and moral point of view, of the candidate
shouldbe well ascertained before selection
is male. The damning influence Of dema-
goguim has too long been felt IN the State,
and hs best interests sacrificed upon its un-
holy atar. The willy Vaccinations of political
tricks.e.s, men pandering for power and place,
have ceased to agitate the public mind, and a
more healthful state of affairs awaits Louisiana
in future. The feeder on government pap, the
man who would elevate himself to power at
the sacrifice of the peoples interests, has rel-
ished his last morsel. The rencvating influ.
ences, discoverable in the triamphs which have
attended the efforts of the American party, is
truly cheering to every patriot and gives pro.
mise that the destinies of our country have
been rescued from the blighting influences OK.
ercised by designing politicians.
We feel perfectly satisfied as TO the appropri.
ateness of the choice which will be made by the
last named party. The purity of the man
whom they will select-both in public and pri.
vate life--wil be unimpeachable. None OF
the taints which attach to the political dema-
gogue must mar the fair proportion of bis
qualities. They desire the promotionof none
but those who seek position for the good they
may be qualified to render the people. The
fawning sycophant will meet with no encour.
agement from party which has for its motto
--"is he honest, is he capable"

"There is more distress here than one on

tainments and ladies' dresses--the former cost
