SAD STORY.


Miss Mary E. Clary, q young girl from
Chicago, and on her way home, was
drowned. After the explosion, she made
her way to the guard of the ladies' cabin,
and was seen by Ward, the psntryman,
seemingly supplied by fear, and as the
boat sunk and the water came nesrly up
to where she sat- the poor girl fell head
long into the flood. Ward tried to reach
her before she fell, but could not, owing
to the wrecked condition of the cabin.
She never rose after sinking.

of the river crying 'helpl" 'fhelp !"
''helpl" 81 am dying" ''helpl" ''helpl"
The laborer says the night was dark, the
wind high and waves boisterous, and that
he strained his eyes to see who made such
appeals at such an hour for assistance.
BE could see nothing; but still, at inter
walls, thought he heard the same piteous
cry, growing fainter and fainter in the
distance, till silence brooded over the
river, and he could only hear the signing

Henry D. Cooke an eminent citi.
son and banker of Jay Cooke & Co.,
received the nomination for Gov
ernor but declined for considerations
of business,
1t is now said that Hon. A. d.
Riddle formerly of Ohio, but for
years one of the leading lawyers in
Washington, will be nominated in
p.aco Of Cooke.
Riddle was in Congress whom tho
war broke out and went on that
famous Congressional excursion to
Bull Run. He withdrew in good
order and i'm due time, but wrote
home to his wife at Cleveland a
scathing letter about the disgraceful
panic. His good wife was foolish
enough to show tho letter to q news
paper man and forthwith 1t appeared
in print which gave Riddle his quietus
in that district at least for tho time
being. Directly after he went to
Washington and ever since he has oc-
cupied the very forefront Of his pro-
fession before all the Courts in the
Federal Capital.
The President could make no bet.
ter appointment than Albert G.

Soldiers.

We have boon in error in regard
to the passage of the Homestead bill
for soldiers, introduced by Senator
Harlan of this State. The Bill was
passed some weeks ago very readily.
and with very little opposition in the
Senate, and we supposed, OF course,
would get through the House. 1t
now seems that, owing to the accu-
mutation of business, it was not reach.
cd, and therefore, not passed, so that
the only law passed at this session Of
Congress favoring soldiers in loca-
ting homesteads, is tho act of July
18th, 1870. This act allows officers,
soldiers and sailors, who have served
in the army or navy, for ninety days,
and remained loyal to the govern
ment, to enter 16O acres of double
minimum lands, that is lands held by
the government at $3.50 per acre.
In oil other respects, the require
ments are the same, as with ordinary
homestead settlers, who can tako
only 80 acres OF the double minimum
land, or 100 acres of tho lands held
at S1.25 an aero.
We publish below the letter of
Senator Harlan referred to, by u.s.
We are very sorry that we have
been led into the error of supposing
that the law had passed, and SO mis-
I'D others. esi
