A Young Man Drowned Last Evening
 Near The Foot of East Street.
 About half-past o'clock last evening An edio Eddesso, a Frenchpan about thirty years of age living on Wallace street, near Elliott's Lane, thought he would go down to Mill river and go in bathing. He went down to Spencer's wharf and, thinking that the water was not over his head, he dived off the dock, and upon coming to the surface he found the water was deeper than he thought. Being unable to swim he called for assistance. A man who was bathing near by went to his assistance and held him up as long as he could, but finding that no help came he had to let Eddesso go in order to save himself and the latter sank out of sight in ten feet of water and did not again come to the surface. An alarm was quickly given and Bath House Keeper Crowley went in search of the body, but up to late hour had not succeeded in finding it. Dr. White was summoned, but could not come to any decision in the case until after the body had been recovered. Ed desso was tailor by trade and leaves wife and three small children.

A Young Mans Rash Deed.

Joseph Barnes, aged twenty-three, was found Sunday afternoon in Charles Betts' woods, Norwalk, lying on the ground with his throat cut. He went to the woods Satur- day evening, and with razer committed the deed. Dr. Hitchcock was called and sewed up the wound, which extended almost from ear to ear, but was not deep enough to cause death Barnes had evidently determined to die and hence continued to lie on the ground. The hot sun beat down, and on examination of the wound it was discovered that the flies had blown it. He presented most repul- sive and sickening appearance, but with care is likely to recover. The reasons Barnes had for wishing to kill himself have not been discovered

A number of prominent citizens were in- teresting themselves yesterday in the erection of new liberty pole on the Green. There seems to be feeling that it should be placed in position before the day set for the funeral of General Grant, so that the national colors may be raised at half-mast on that day. Some of these gentlemen say that the funds could easily be raised by subscription to pay for the pole, but they think that it belongs to the city to replace the one removed, and, if necessary, that the Mayor should call special meeting of the Common Council to make an appropria- tion for the nurDose
