Three Young Men Drowned.

A jackson, Mich, correspondent OF the
Chicago Journal gives the details Of the
drowning of three young men, briefly re-
ported by telegraph -
The young men, Knapp, Moseroll and
Carhartt left this city about 8 o'clock on
Wednesday evening, on q fishing excursion
to the pond, which Is about four miles east
of the town There is small village near
the pond at the hotel of which they put up
their horse Mr.. Paugburn, the hotel
keeper, says he gave them his largest boat,
capable of accommodating six men. They
said that, as they probably would be out
late, they wouldn't trouble Mr., Paugburn
to sit up for them, but they would secure
the boat, and get up. their own horse.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Paugburn found
the horse in the barn, and at once sent q
man to see what had become Of the boat.
The man returned after while and re-
ported finding the boat bottom side mp and
no men to be seen. Mr.. Paugburn at once
camO to the city with the news, and in q
short time about 400 men were on the
ground, eager and anxious to assist in find
ing the bodies of the unfortunate young
men.
OF the manner Of the accident when de-
prived these young men of life, probably
nothing will ever be known. II is thought,
however that while they were fishing their
boat encountered q snag, which mmedi-
ately overturned them, and the young mon
we're suddenly preoipitated into the chilling
wnter, where, amid darkness and cold, en=
numbered with heavy clothing, and with no
aid near they soon perished. ~
Some people in the neighborhood heard
cries about midnight, but as fishing parties
were frequently noisy, paid no attention to
it. These cries were undoubtedly the death
cries Of the unfortunate young men.
They were all OF them young mon Of
great promise, steady and reliable In every
place, and there are scarcely three young
men in the city whose loss would lave been
felt 80 much as theirs, The lnournful
event has cast dark shadow over the
com intlnity. .g'T yH

Too Sharp for Her Better.Half.

ltr0m the New orleans PlCayune,l
A very amusing little incident recently
occurring in our city is being whispered
around by parties seemingly well advised
in the premises. 1t appears that at one OF
our fashionable places of amusement last
winter, very fascinating and pretty SOU
brette had o short engagement 1t was suf-
ficiently long, however, to completely en-
list the admiration of a gentleman engaged
in commercial pursuits, and not great
while from northern latitude. By some
means the parties became acquainted, and
as the days fed along, mutual sympathy
mellowed into love. The lady, o little coy
at first, finally lent listening ear 10 the
entreaties Of her adorer, and after brief
engagement they were married. Of course,
it is not the intention of the reporter TO re-
cite the rosy dreams of the honeymoon;
how each adored the other. and happiness,
radiant as poesy itself, bewitched the hours
into visions of delight.
Weeks sped along, and months had meas
ured their length on times dial. But at
last circumstance occurred which put an
end to billing and cooling, and revealed a
domestic imbroglio, not at all in harmony
with the felicity that preceded it.
One day the husband entered his wifes
apartment, with the declaration that, deep
ly as he regretted such an event, they must
part ... .t
"Part-you don't mean to leave me2" ex-
claimed the lady,
Deeply as regret the circumstance,
such is the casep was the reply.
"But why2 What have I done-what
wrong have committed"
"NothinRp
"And yet you leave mei"
'My dear, in the haste of our marriage
/ forgot to mention little fact, which In
the mind of casuists might have formed
an objection to it; have another wife liv-
ingW
'Impossiblep'
'1t is true, my dear"
The lady was silent for moment, and
then assuming her mo It bewitching smile,
replied:
my dear, must confess that I suspect
ed something Of the sort, and to guard
against any future trouble, had little
paper prepared by my attorney, which yon
will remember to have signed in the ins-
tices's office the day we were married. You
supposed it to be merely certificate of
marriage; but it was merely an article Of
agreement, in which you promise to allow
me, in case Of separation, On annuity Of
twenty-five hundred dollars. Under the
peculiar circumstances of the case, l shall
have TO exact the ful6llment Of this agree
ment, or have you arrested for bigamyT
'grhe deyili"
True, my dear; here is copy-the JUS
tice has the original"
This is swindlef'
"Ob, no, my dear; only business trans
action"
There was some further protest-a little
angry recrimination; but II is needless TO
soy the conditions Of the bond were finally
compiled with, and on this comfortable
allowance the lady entertains serious
thoughts of forsalins the buskin,

Bashrul Bri'o on Her Wedding Tour

While we were making arrangements to
pass the night 1--WE cannot say sleep) in tho
sleepinp-car which carried us from Macon
to Montgomery, Alabama, and just as we
had begun to wish for q better bed, the
cars stopped at small station, and blush
ing couple, "hold of hands," came into the
car. Their appearance MS they stood hesi-
tatingly in the doorway, showed that they
meant ''mischief," and were Just starting
out on their wedding tour.
''Would YOU like berth, sir ?" said the
lively jolly,hcod conductor Of the misefa-
BILE sleeping-car

groom. "Haint you got no bridal cham

conductor "Come this way, sir"
The couple went tremblingly through

about as much like state room on Nor

iail appears like the Parker House parlor.
'Does that door shet upi" anSiorsly in
quired the bridegroom.
"Oh, yes. See how it slides, said the
conductor.
"But I'm dogged if l see any place to
sleep" suggested the applicant for the
chamber,
"0h, vell fix that, if yop will be seated, "
said the conductor, pointing to low bard
sofa on the opposite side, of the car, close
to the head OF our curtained couch.
II don't like it, so there -" whisper
ed the bride.
Don't like what ?" said her partner.
Il won't go no further, won't if you
keep talking So"
'What have done, I'd like ter know 2"
''You told him you didn't see no place to
sleep, and | don't think it was usin' me
right.
I'Well, | don't sss no place now, either.
If we've got TO be tucked away in that little
hole, we'll hey ter stan up all night, that's
sartin.
Lets go back, Johnny; I'm afraid to go
any further
''Oh, no, don't letsgo back. Let's stick

II can't, I won't, don't like ter. can't
stay here. Theers lots of men behind those
curtains. I'm sick. won't go no fur

began to weep as though her heart would
break,
l'Wall, don't Ory, AIollie, we'll get right
eOut at the next place. BRt you hadn't
orter be so 'fraid O. folks, now we're mar
ried."
This seemed to quiet her grief, and at the
next station the devoted couple left the
cars, having paid for the estate room, and
We heard him, as he stood on the platform
outside, remark that

Last month eight sailors deserted from
the British war steamer Jealous, lying In
the harbor OF San Francisco. The Bulletin
describes the scene that followed
The British Consul, Mr.. Booker, and a
party of gentlemen were dining with the
Admiral on board the Jealous, when eight
sailors belonging to the vessel slipped over
unobseryed into the boat which brought
the visitors, and pulled for shore. They
were about fifty yards from the steamer
when the guards saw them, hailed and
fred at them One of the sailors was
struck in the forehead, but only slight
wound was inflicted, and the men pulled
away with will. Immediately hips
boat was manned and lowered, and put of
in pursuit. This boat contained about
dozen officers and men, and the chase
was very exciting one. The deserters
had the start, and pulled with desperate
energy. AS the ships boat neared them,
several shots were fred from carbines and
pistols at the deserters, but they fell short
or flew wide of the men. They were al
most overtaken when they ranalongside the
tug Rebecca, scrambled upon ii, and made
the wharf. The leader OF the party, rs he
set his foot upon the wharf, was heard to
once more A large crowd had been at
tracted by the firing and appearance Of the
two boats, and in il were several burly
boatmen, who tried to stop the hefurtherpro-
gress of the deserters but they failed to
arrest them, and in a few minutes every
sailor had disappeared Tho pursuit was
not continued on shore, and, sofar as known
none of the men have been retaken. Dur.

MUTMY AT SEA. The barque Alice Roy
Capt. Douglass, which arrived here this
morning from Machias, Me-, bound to
Montevideo, was the scene of mutiny,
only quelled by the shooting of one of the
rioters. Three men were shipped in East
port to Join the vessel They were no
sooner ON board than they wanted to 90 on
shore again. The captain would allow but
enc of shem to CO. This seems to have give
the ''sulks," and shortly after the vessel
sailed they became very mutinous, On
Friday matters had proceeded to such a
point, that the captain determined to put
the men in irons When they were told to
come aft, they laughed at the captain, and
dared him to do anything. The second
mate then took hold Of one of them, very
powerful man but was met with blow
which nearly knocked him overheard and
the mate who interfered receiveda severe
cut with club. Finally one of the mutt
neers made at the captain with an axe, and
chased him two or three times round tho
deck The captain had a pistol, but did
not use it, The Steward seeing this, and
thinking that if the fellow caught the cap
tain; while infuriated he would probably
kill him, ranacross the deck seized the pis-
{ u from the Captains hand and shot the
fellow. This put stop to the mutiny, and
the Captain bore up for this port. The
~ IN is wounded below the lung, and it is
feared that the wound will prove fatal. The

Meanwhile tho shawl lay Just in front Of

THE Prescription OF DEMOCRATIC SOL
DIERs, There is no Disgusting the fact
that president Grant has settled dislike to
a brave soldier who happens to be a demo-
crat. Had he announced, before taking
his perilous plunge into the Wilderness
that he would receive no recruits but radi-
Gals, his present hostility to all democratic
soldiers would be consistent; but inasmuch
as he then admitted that they were as pat
rotic as those who were most so, and as
capable of resisting the enemies as the best
of radical stock, he has no decent excuse OF
this day for turning them out Of offices in
which they are perfectly efficient, to make
rom for partisans ofhis own administration.
In nnumerousinstances he has cruelty depriv-
cd brave soldiers Of their only means Of live
lihood, and publicly set patriotism below
the standard OF paTtisanship.
