den, who upon investigation of the
facts returned the following verdict:
That the said George n. Keys came
to his death by drowning, and that it
was his own act, while laboring under
mental alteration" The deceased was
a man of about thirty years of age, a
a saddler by occupation, and had been
in the employ of Mr.. Hext, of this city,
for about five years. From letters
found in his pockets, he is supposed to
have come from Shepherdstown, where,
we learn, he has relatives. He is said
to have been a man of intelligence and
extensive information, and sustained an
excellent character for probity among
those who knew him. In regard TO the
hour in which he is supposed to have
committed the rash act, we are inform
ed by boatman that about half past
eight o'clock on Wednesday night, he
heard the plunge o! a body about the
point where Keys was found, and he
now thinks that it was the suicidal
plunge of the deceased. His relatives
in Shepherdstown have been written to

A srsPICIOrs FLANK.
Under this headline the San Francisco

h.t' - ,+s@@
Chronicle has the following editorial:
A shrewd and suspicious correspondent
who has been scanning the NJ. Louis plat
form with q critical eye writes to the
CArssicl, - follows:
1.-THE last plank In the Democratic plat
form reads: The soldiers and sailors OF
the Republic, and the widows and orphans
of those who have fallen etc. Does that
include Mosby's gentle guerillas and the
humane Homo Guards around Libby and
Andersonville2 Have these and all other
rebels a Just claim upon the care. pro-
lection and gratitude IL their fellow-cit-
izens p"
There certainly does seem to he some
slight ambiguity In the language quoted
by our correspondent. The plank 20
which he refers reads thus:
"Rs.oissd. That the soldiers and sail
ors Of the Republic, and the widows and
orphans Of those who have fallen In battle.
have a Joint claim upon the care,
protection aud gratitude Of their fellow
citizens"
The corresponding plank in the Repub-
lican platform Is as follows:
"The pledges which the nation has givon
70 our sohiitts anu sAihofs murt " iui-
nlled. A grateful people will always hold
those who have perilei their lives for the
country'a preservation in the kindest re-
membrznce."
There IL unque.tionably a very signiil-
can't difference in the language Of the two
resolutions. Was II intendedy When the
| ST. Louis resolution was drawn and adopt
| ed the Cincinnati platform was already be-
| fore the country. so that the inference
seems reasonable that the difference was
the result Of deliberate design, and that
the trainers Of the former intended TO in
elude all soldiers aud sailors without dis
tinction-all who have fallen in battle I"
whether upon the Union or the rebel
side. There can be no doubt that the ~.
Louis platform was carefully drawn. Every
phrase and word was well considered ; AMI

the peculiar language quoted was designed
for Southern consumption. and ~ a sop To-
