DRowyED.-On Sunday last, about II
O'Clock NJ, Frank, lad of If, and son OF
Jos. Wildman, residing near the Fox Chase
this county, was drowned in the Big Elk,
three quarters of mile above Parke, Smith
Il Co.'S Rolling Mill dam. In company with
several others, he went in to battle, and with
the full intention Of learning how to swim,
as he is reported to have said before enter
ing the water, that he would either learn
how to swim, or go to- his " death bed. -
Having got out into deep water, and failed
in the accomplishment of the art, he met
with this last melancholy fate His body
was recovered in about two hours and n
coroner's inquest held over it whose verdict
was that he came to his death by accidental
drowning.
Boys, let this be warning to you against
making such rash and uncalled for asser.

lonrth Commandment, Remember the
Sabbath day, to keep it holy" &c.

Frequent inquiries are made as to when

on the subject, but we think it probabethat
Gen. Candy will call the Convention on the
9th or 18th of next month. This is only
conjecture.
1t seems to us the Convention may be able
to do its work in the course of four or
five weeks. By the middle of March, there
fore. or towards the latter part of that month,
the Constitution can be submitted for ratiff-
cation, and if the Convention should so di-

AN ELOPEMENT.

PURSUIT OF THE GUILTY PARTY-THE
wRoNeED MAN SHOT AND WOUNDED BY THE
sEDUCER.
One day during the early part of August,
gay and brilliant party might have been
seen emerging from one of the mort fashion
able and aristocratic churches in st. Louis
nuptial rites had been concluded by which
the gallant Mai. A. W. Edwards and the
lovely and accomplished Julia Howard were
made one. All promised JOY and happiness,
the future appeared to wear tints OF the
most cerulean hue The bridegroom was
one the most popular and successful editors In
| in the State, while the bride was beautiful
and wealthy-the only daughter of a gentle
man, who did good service for the Union as
commander of brigade during the rcbell-
| ion What more could be desired?
| After short but very pleasant tour, the
MAJOR conducted his fair bride to his
spacious and well-arranged mansion in Car
linville, where they dwelt together in all APP
parent happiness.
Yielding to the pressing solicitations OF
his brother editors throughout the State, the
major babe, as he thought, brief farewell
! to his young wife, and accompanied US upon
the Rocky Mountain excursion. During the
trip, as we all know, he was the life and soul
of the party his jokes were side splitting,
his laugh the loudest, and his songs the gay
est and joliest
The journey being ended, the major has
tened home on wings of love. Bright Wis
ions Ola happy home and lovely wife
cheered him on the way. Saturday evening
last, as the sombre shadows of twilight were
gathering DER forest and prairies, the major
! landed at Carlinville; he fastened toward
his suburban mansion.
Darkness and despair reigned supreme
| throughout the deserted homestead. He
found letter addressed to him to forget and
forgive her, and briefly stated that she elop-
| ed with one she loved in former days. AL
most craz"tl, fine major at length learned
that the companion of her flight was Cap
tain Stanton, OF the Goth Regulars. He soon
made preparations and followed upon their
track. Being appraised that they fled to-
ward the East, he took the cars for Pittsburg.
Upon arriving in that city he learned by the
aid of detective that the guilty pair were
in Cleveland. He then rapidly hurried
thither, and tracked them to the Eastern
hotel, where they were stopping as man and
wife. Upon consulting the register, he as
cerrained the number of their room. He
rushed up stairs, burst open the door, and
| confronted the seducer of his wife! Julia
screamed and fell fainting to the floor. A
few angry words, and the wronged man and
the betrayer drew their revolvers. Both fir
ed simultaneously, and the gallant major
fell, severely wounded, with bullet in his
shoulder. In the confusion that ensucd,
Captain Stanton and the false Julia were
enabled to escape, and they are now suppos-
ed to be in the neighborhood of Toronto,
| Canada.
In the meantime, Major Edwards received
all the attention that kindness. care and
skill could bestow upon him.

Mr.. POOLS LETTER.

The attention of our readers, and especi-
ally of the friends of the University and of
education generally, is invited to the able
and interesting Letter of the Rev. Solomon
Pool, in the Standard to-day.
Mr.. Pool is well informed on the subject,
and has always taken deep interest in the
cause of education. We concur with him
that there should be State University, but
it should be popularized and gOyalised, and
brought fully up in its discipline and course
OF studies to the requirements of the age.
