Gen. Babcock Drowned.

Jacksonville, Fla, g. Babcock
and party left Baltimore May 10th,
on the lighthouse tender Pharos, a
two masted schooner bound for
Mosquito inlet, ninety miles below
the mouth Of st. Johns river, on
the Florida coast, where the govern.
ment is building a lighthouse. The
Pharos put into Charleston
and left there on the 2Sth
she having encountered adverse
winds all the way. A heavy
northeast gale began on the 10Th, in
the midst of which the Pharos made
81. Johns light and came to anchor
off the bar with two cables out. The
pilot was signaled, and although the
sea was running hslf-mast high, one
reached the Pharos, and General
Babcock sent the following dis
patch to DR.. J. G. Lengle, OF his
city. proprietor of the steam towing
tugs ! the river:

The Pharos calls from here this
morning. Please send Seth Lowe,
and may be able to tow her over to
Mosquito Inlet Bay. Let her take
the Pharos in tow il overtaken.
(Signed) o E. BABCoCK,
Lighthouse Manager.
The sea run so high that the gig
could not get out, and the sea had
not gone down this morning. The
next news received was dispatch
from Daytona to the Times Union
announcing the sad catastrophe.
When the tug comes back from
Mos quito Inlet, full particulars will
be known. The probability is that
Pharos anchored off the inlet and
the general and his party undertook
to go ashore In a small boat which
was swamped in the breakers.

have referred to Major Ivie's candidacy
for Congress in the most friendly and

editorial is from the Memphis Ledger Of

Bedford, will be candidate for Con

a conservative legislator and sount
Democrat. Major I'VE is a man o
ability and convictions. During tn
session of the Legislature he contributes
his influence to the passage of all loca
legislation in which the people of Mem

kindly remembered. Should the DE-

He wants the roads improved while the
weather is favorable, aud adds:
The roads will do well enough now,
but when the winter comes they will be
in such condition as to be almost i'm
passable unless work is done on them
between now and fall. Nothing add.
more To the value of lands, or to the
profits Of a farm, than good roads,"

most twice as much. As it is, our road,
