In OUR LAST ISSUE we mentioned that
Coroner Prendergast had held an inquest ON
two hoys who were drowned in Brandywine
Creek near the Railroad Bridge. Five of
the boys were in a batteau, aud fastened
the boat to the rudder of schooner, then
being towed out by tug. The motion oil
the tug made a swell by which the boat was
swamped, and two of the boys were drown
ed. We are informed that the fastening
on TO the towed boats by boys is no uncom-
mon occurrence, and the officers Of vessels
are unable TO prevent il, and that boys are
frequently thrown into the water and their
lives jcopardised.
Could not our law makers enact some
ordinance by which it can be prevented9

VIRGINIA ELEcTloN.- result of the cleo
ton in Virginia, surprises the country gener-
ally. The election was ordered by General
Grant in Proclamation to the people of Vir
ginia, and was conducted under the auspices
of the military force of the United States, il
command of General Candy. The New Yorl
Herald thus announces the programme, an,
its results:
1.-THE election embraced, first, the ratifca
tion OF the State constitution adopted by tn
/ radical State Convention some two years ago
secondly, the question OF the ratification of th
fifteenth amendment of the federal constitt
tion as required by Congress thirdly, GOV
ernor Lieutenant Governor, and State Legisl,
ture fourthly, members of Congress.
"0n the constitutional question, under ii
authority of Congress, General Grant ordefe
separate vote ON the rebel disiranchising an
one or two other clauses of the State constitl
tion before the public, and it is upon this di
franchsing clause that the two parties hay
been mainly divided. The radicals, includiT
the bulk of the blacks, have fought the bait
for the constitution with this rebel disfrancl
sing clause the conservatives for the consiit
tion without this obnoxious clause. The col
servatives accept the fifteenth amendment al
the situation generally, the great issue beil
the question of rebel Acknowledgement.
| Walker, the conservative candidate, is a mo-
a crate republican, and what is known as
carpet-bagger that is, Northern man.
Wells, the radical candidate is also a carpe
bagger. The conservatives, II will thus
seen, have accepted the new order offthiny
u and have undertaken, in good faith, to secu
the State on the terms laid down by Congre
s If, then, they have carried the State, incl
" ding the enfranchsement of the hitherto d
T., enfranohised rebels, they have the State henC
&c forward for a long time to come, and so of I
= reign of the radical carpet-baggers South
y, have hers the beginning of the end"
rs Later returns from Virginia, show Wall
u to be elected Governor by 10000, and
entire Conservative ticket by an equally
lv cisive majority.
