DEATH OF LIEUTENANT w. L..
STEELE.

1t was known TO his family and
friends here for some time past,
that Lieut.. w. l.. Steele, of co. G.,
saith Ind. Reg, was lying sick of
chronic diarrhea at Franklin, Tenn.
We believe however that no very
particular apprehension was felt
as TO the prospect of his ultimate
recovery, till the telegraph an
nounced, few mornings since, the
sad news of his death. He died
on the 10th inst and his remains
were Immediately dispatched home
to his friends, arriving here on
the mail train Wednesday morning.
This is the second member of
the same family whose death, in
connection with the present war,
we have had to chronicle. Lieut..
Steele was also another one of our
most intimate acquaintance of
many years standing He had
been a citizen of this town for sew
eral years, and was extensively
known through the country as an
active and correct business man.
He leaves Il wife and family of
young children to mourn the loss
of an afiectlonate husband and
father The funeral took place
Yesterday in the regular way.

SERENADERs SURPRIsED.-A newly married
couple in Waterford were honored with a
serenade one night recently. The happy bride
groom invited the company into the house and
after furnishing them with refreshments, said he
had favor to ask. Upon their expressing
willingness to serve him in any way, he took
bible and selecting chapter requested each one
to read verse. The request somewhat surprised
our serenaders, for {" reading the scriptures
was not on the programme for that evening
However they read the verses with becoming
gravity, but were taken "all aback" whenhe
asked them to join with him in prayer! lflhis
good example was followed generally we think
there would be fewer serenades. CdLsdonidn.
