We are sorry to learn that Hon.
r. W. Ewart, one of Ohio's great
hearted, benevolent and enterpris-
ing citizens, long resident in Ma
rietta, now of Granville, O., has
been seriously i'll for some days, his
constitution being greatly shattered
by long strain of business and har-
RAISING cares. At last accounts his
symptoms were for the better, and
we cling to the hope that he may
yet have many years to enjoy and
bless his most excellent family.
His Excellency, Gov. Jackson, is
letting the great Ship of West
Virginia run masterless a few days,
while he isat home with us, looking
after some legal business, and fill
ing his old familiar place, as Jolly
Jake in the court room.
However, nobody need fear a
crash of government on diplomatic
rocks, or any thing Of the kind in
the Governors absence, as second
officer Billy is on deck.
Rombert's smiles of assurance,
kindled with the bright railroad
prospects are a joy to behold. "Bob"
is plainly entitled to a compliment
tary slice ofstock for his earnest la
bors in working the thing up.
The FREEMAN office, was enliven-
ed, a day or two since with the
presence of Bro. A. F. Gibbons, Post
Master at Charleston. We had no
trouble in learning he was in favor
of the railroad.

BADLY BANJoED.-A musical
company of the Courier crew, were
serenading about the saloons the
other night, and, music getting
out OF them as the beer and fight
got IN, the steward, instead of pick
ing his banjo, picked a colored broth
er's head, by striking Him with the
brass rim of the instrument, cutting
a terrible cash. Although escaping
at the time, Capt. jim, caught
the offender on a subsequent trip
OF the boat, when he gave bond for
his appearance.

the body of an unknown man was
found lodged in the willows at the
shore of the river four miles below
the city. A Coroner's jury was i'm

but elected no knowledge as to his
identity or the cause Of his death,
except that it is supposed he was
drowned. From its decomposed
condition, the body must have been
in the water at least from four to
six weeks. He was man about 5
feet 8 inches, dressed in dark suit,
pants worn through at the knees,
and white shirt with no collar, boots
on, well worn, had straight black
hair and no whiskers; supposed to
be about % years old. There were
found in his pockets, brass knuck-
les, pair of kid gloves, nearly new,
a white handkerchief and collar
button.
The Overseer of the Poor had the
body properly coffined and buried
