ADRIAN, March 9, 1859.
Our city was thrown into considerable ex.
element this morning, in consequence Of the
arrival of two or three gentleman from Syl-
vania with the remains of the lost mronaut,
Ira j. Thurston, whose tragic fate last sum
mer is so well remembered.
The facts Of the discovery, as near as we
can ascertain, are these: Last Sunday az the
son of Michael Hogg was searching for some
sheep in the woods, on the farm Of Mr.. s.
Miner, some 4 miles south-e east Of the viii
lage of Sylvania, he discovered the remains
Of the body of man. He immediately ran
to his father, who, in company with Mr.. Mi
ner, repaired to the spot, and found abun-
dant evidence that the remains were those Of
MIR. Thurston, who must have fallen from
his position on the valve of the balloon,
where he was seated when carried of so sim
gularly last summer. These gentlemen i'm
mediately proceeded to collect what could be
found, but only succeeded in finding the skull,
and one feot in boot, and q few ethc. 81. !. !. i.
bones. The rest of the body has been car
ried off by wild beasts. They found, howev-
err, the coat, pantaloons, vest, and shirt; and
with them Mr.. Thurston's cards upon which
he took his minutes on his balloon trip from
Adrian to the place where he landed, near
were go water soaked that the writing could
not be made out.
They found, however, in memorandum
book q letter addressed to Mr.. Thurston,
from firm in Philadelphia, which was in re-
ply to inquiries about balloon silk.
They also found Mr.. Thurston's watch and
knife, both of which are fully identified by
many of our citizens as his property. The
watch is unhurt, but stopped at 20 minutes to
II O'Clock, which shows the time he fell.
| All that remains of the unfortunate Thurs
ton about whose fate there has been so much
solicitude, is now enclosed in q small box at
this Office, where We have SO often greeted HE
honest face, and answered his pleasant salu
tation in days past. What disposition is to
be made Of them, we have not been informed
Thus ends this tale of peril, and death, and
anxiety over his fate, and the discovery oil
his remains. Rudely hos fate dealt with thy
body, gallant Thurston, but We trust thy no
BILE soul is at rest.
P. S.-The remains have been delivered Il
the administrator Of MIR. FPS estate.

PERHAPS So.-A good Democrat,
who occasionally calls in 20 chat with
us. says We are rapidly approaching the
early days Of the Reput lie 10 the selec-
ton of State and local officers BY the
method of balIoti"g at primary elections.
He says that if Democracy continues to
absorb the old opposition as she now is
rapidly doing, in a short time the entire
voting mass Of the people will make
their selections for officers without the
necessity Of an opposition to the De-
mocracy. We will all be Democrats,
continues he, and the ballotings at the
ward or primary meetings will always
express the peoples choice, and dele
gates will have nothing to do but vote
for them III. Convention. This will al
ways be the better method Of testing the
worth Of individuals who aspire to place
and position, and the chances will always
he IN our favor Of getting good, reliable
and honest men to fill our public Offices.
There is food for reflection in vi, at
our friend says, but the ideas are entire-
~ too theoretical. There are too many
breeches pocket patriots o -a-days, hun
for the lesh-pots Of Office, to be
ruled BY any political meeting or Con.
v%ention. and while our country exists as
a country, Ne will always have some
for the crumbs falling from
the political table.
