Not Drunken.
We are informed. from reliable sources,
that the young men who had narrow es-
cape from drowning 10 Bellwater pond, OF
which mention was made in this paper two
weeks ago. were not intoxicated. and had
not been drinking; but. on the contrary,
are temperance men. We the more regret
that our informant should have done them
this Injustice. as we now learn that they are
returned soldiers. three of whom have lived
through the horrors of Andersonville. MANY
people are too ready to charge violations of
law and good order upon the citizen sold
iers; but, as far as our observation goes,
their conduct in this section, as a general
rule has been unexceptionable. and such
as to merit the honor and glory achieved
in the field by the Green Mountain Boys.
Gy1nnGst killed.
On Tuesday, the 22d ultimo. at Chelsea,
the best gymnast in Stone Il ROston's cir
Gus. which recently exhibited at st. Johns
bury. was killed while performing some of
his wonderful pole exploits Union.
As we have seen no notice of this acct
dent in any of the papers below us, we are
inclined to think, as we certainly hope, that
our neighbOr was misintOrmed.
