We regret that We are called on to re-
cord . sad accident, which occurred In
the school room of Miss McMahan, at
williamsburg, in this county, on Tues
day last, resulting in the death Of Miss
Katie Everhart. daughter Of Mr.. Joseph
Everhart, of that vicinity.
We learn that the facts leading to this
most painful result were about as follows:
On the day mentioned, during recess,
one of the pupils. Mr.. Randolph Kidwell,
was playfully engaged swapping caps on q
pistol, which he and the other scholars
believed to be unloaded; but sad was the
mistake, for during the innocent amuse-
meut, discharge issued from the weap-
on which entered the breast Of Miss Ever
hart. causing instant death.-[ Fulton

Of the New York Times says it is every
day becoming more apparent that grad
ual change is taking place in the feelings
and political views of great part of the
resident population of the former city
Active demonstrative hatred of the North
has in many instances given way if not
to an entirely opposite feeling, at least to
a passiveness which promises better
things, and bespeaks an openness to con-
viction and discussion Many accommo-

KEOKUK:
PROCLAMATION.
EXECUTIVE OFFICE,
Des Moines, Feb. IA, 1854. !

| am advised by numerous letters from
sources deemed reliable. that large num-
bers of men qualified for military duty
are preparing to depart at an early day
beyond the Missouri. 1t is useless to
disguise the plain object of this sudden
heeira westward, in the midst of winter,
and months in advance of the season at
which vegetation appears on the plains.
None other than reasons of most ex-
traordinary character could induce men to
leave comfortable homes in the midst of
plenty, at season SO unpropitious. to
incur the privations incident to a journey
across an unsettled and barren country.
Men who are capable of an undertaking
so arduous, and able to delve in the gold
mines of Colorado, Nevada and Idahe,
would make excellent material for filling
up the wasted ranks OF the Union Army.
Such men are abundantIy able to shout
der their muskets and perform soldiers
duties.
The imperative demands of the public
service are paramount to all private or
personal considerations. While men are
required from Iowa. to supply the Army,
we have none to spare for gold hunting IN
the Rocky Mountains, or the valleys be-
yond Those vino have so far, during
this great struggle, avoided the stern de-
mands of patriotic duty, and now at
tempt to skulk away, cannot be allowed
to leave the State until our obligations to
the General Government are fully and
honorably discharged.
If this unreasonable departure bt
prompted by solicitude to avoid the i'm
pending draft, their purpose can be more
honorably accomplished by remaining a
home, using the necessary means and ex
ertiug their influence to induce other
to volunteer, or by volunteering them
selves.
Believing that gross injustice would b
done to our earnest and patriotic citizens
both at home and in the field, BY allowing
this exodus to take place, and that tn
necessities OF the occasion require this IN
PREVENTION, | HEREBY FORBID all citizen
of Iowa removing beyond the limits c
the State before the 10Th day of Marc
next.
Provost Marshals will be instructed b
proper authority to cooperate with me J
making this Proclamation effective; an
military commanders along the Missouri
are respectfully requested to place suihcer
guards of soldiers at all the crossings {
that river, between Leayenworth an
Sioux City, to enforce its proper exec'
ton.
No person will be permitted to lea'
the State, in that direction, without
proper pass from the Prrvost Marshal

DEATH OF A DIVER Coroner Arnaud
WAS called to hold an inquest yesterday
noon on the body of diver named Fred

lowing manner:
The steamer Moderator, which was
struck by field of ice on the 29th of
January last, and partly sunk at the foot
of Olive street, is about to be raised, and
Jcraud was engaged to 20 down and as
certain the locality of the break. Tues
day he descended outside the steamer
three times. without experiencing any
difficulty. Wednesday he changed the
position of the weights, which are general
ly attached to a divers feet, and fastened
seventy pounds to bis waist. 1t is sup
