| Another soul has been ushered into eter-
| nity, and passed " to that bourne from
whence no traveller returneth." Yesterday
morning, between the hours of four and
five o'clock, William G. Ewing, Jr., adopted
son of the late William O. Ewing, commit
ted suicide by shooting himself with a re-
| vOlyer through the head. Yesterday, all
manner of rumors were current on the
streets, none of which were correct ...
| 1t appears the deed was premeditated, as
the deceased had been heard to say that
when he got helpless he would not remain
| long on earth, that he would end all his
| troubles BY self destruction. He has been
| i'll for months past and most all winter
confined to his bed. His disease was slow
consumption and his sufferings were great;
he was anticipating the grim monster at
any hour. On Friday and Saturday last
he was busily engaged in destroying let
ters, concerning his domestic difficulties,
as he was divorced from his wife, the
eldest daughter of Colonel G. w. Ew-
| ing, senior, several years ago. One
child, lovely little girl, was the fruit Of
this union. After the separation, Mr.. Il.
took the child, which was boarding with
him at the residence of Mrs. Esther Ewing,
cor. Ewing and Berry streets. On Satur-
day evening, he sent for his attorney, Judge
Morris, to draw up his will, in which he
left the bulk of his wealth to his daughter.
| Yesterday morning, at the hour mentioned
above, Mrs. +. had left his room, when he
arose from his bed and walked to bureau
| in the room, upon which was a mirror;
opening one of the drawers, he took re-
volver, and standing in front of the mirror,
deliberately placed the muzzle of the
weapon about an inch above and in range of
his ear, and pulled the trigger, and he fell
to the floor corpse. Instantly Mrs. E.
rushed into the room, but discovered that
! life was extinct. She Immediately notified
the authorities, the Coroner was sent for,
who had a jury empanneled, the verdict
of which was in accordance with the facts
we have given. The deceased, we believe,
was born in this county, and had resided
here very near all his life time, and was
well known, not only here but abroad, as
he was formerly connected with the busi-
ness house of G. w. & w. G.. Ewing, the
well known Indiana capitalists. He was
about thirty-six years of age, and leaves a
large circle Of friends and acquaintances,
who will mourn the rash act

at the Shadow In the Wafer, and

at the Shadow In the Water, and
Lost his Meat. "" .s' .a .'I.
One of the largest and most important
lawsuits in the history of Boston, or of
New England has just been virtually de-
tcided. The facts in the affair are so simple
that can convey an Idea of 1t to your read
ers in paragraph. In the dark days of
1864, when the end of the war seemed long
way off, when volunteering was at an end,
and the draft imminent, the city of Boston
was called upon for about six thousand
men. A draft was always abhorrent to the
population here of all classes, and dismay
reigned supreme. Money was given like
water for substitutes, and the price Of men
ranged from $500 to $1,000 each. At this
time one Chas. Burrill consulted with the
municipal authorities as to the best means
of filling the quota, by procuring repentant
rebels from the prison camps In the West,
and by bringing to light credits not hereto,
fore allowed. The Mayor signeda paper
promising to give him $l25 for each name
obtained. With this paper in his pocket
Mr.. Burrill hurried to Washington, pay
ing little attention to the enlistment of
rebels in the West, and devotedhisene
to getting men who were already enrolled
in the navy credited against the quota. A
bill introduced into Congress for the puI-
pose was opposed by the Western members.
Mr.. Burrill took measures" (Which he

THE ORIGIN or GOLD.

A correspondent of the New York Tribune,
writing from Salt Lake City, gives the follow

II can guess" he muttered, why God is feared,

Where the day goes out at the western gate
AND, reaching up to its crown. Will tear III!
From its plumes of glory the brightest there:
With the;stolen ray will lightthe 500,
And turn the eyes of the world from God" :
He stood on the height when the sun went down,
he tore one plume from the days bright crown,
The proud beam stopped till he touched its
brow, 9t
And the print of his fingers are on it now;
And the blush Of its anger @forevermore
Burns red when it passes the western door.
The broken feather aboveihim whirled,
In flames of torture around him curled,
And he dashed it down on the snowy height.
In broken flashes of quivering light;
All, more than terrible was the shock
Where the burning splinters struck wave and
The green earth shuddered, and shrank and
paled, . T-2 &G5 ss1l 81
The wave sprang up and the mountain quailed;
Look on the hills let the scars they bear
Measure the pain Of that hours despair.
The Fallen watched, while the whirlwind
famed, bus .iJ - ar3
The pulsing splinters that plowed the sand; !
Sullen he watched, while the Kissing waves
Bore them away to the ocean caves;
Sullen he watched, while the shining rills
Throbbed through the hearts of the rocky hills;
Loudly he laughed, us the world not mine?
Proudly the links of its chain shall shine
Lighted with gems shall its dungeon be, .2
But the pride Of it's beauty shall kneel to me-"
