It seems he had been in (he water and returned to' the dry bank, and his track showed he agnin went into the water, but by mistake got on the edge or precipice ot the bottom ot tbe shal low cove, ud 111 out in the current of the river where the water was tenor fittei n leet deep. No one was with him and he must have drowned very soon as he could not swim. Ilia body had not been found up to noon yesterday.

We publish the following letters by request :' Messrs. Editors : The Queen of the South Lodge of Good Templars, with the co-operation of the fire department, held a very large and enthusiastic meet ing, in Metropolitan Hall, last evening 28th inst., for the purpose of arousing our people, more fully, to that all im portant subject which is now eliciting the attention of nearly every body i. e. temperance; and also lor the purpose ol bringing before the public the object of the Stale Convention, which will soon convene at Newbern, N. C. Many of our prominent men graced tho occasion with their presence; among whom was the Hon. J. W. Holden, w ho spoke, and I am happy to say that his first effort at the business had its desired effect. It was as bread cast upon the water ; to be seen alter many days. Senator J. II. Harris succeeded. him, and made a very effectual speech ; giving due credit to the young men.who are pushing forward this sreat and glorious work. The Rev. G. W. Brodie and Brother J. Gordan al so spoke in their usual ii teresting way which added greatly to the enjoyment of all. Gov. W. W. Holden was expect ed to be . present, but owing to the state of his health he could not attend; but sent a very encouraging letter. After it was read a move was made to return a vote of thanks to the Governor for his kind letter, amended by another motion that it be published in the Spirit of the Age. Carried. Comment is unnecessary, as we are all well acquainted with the author of it. It is apparent that the seed sown last evening fell on good ground, from the Lvefy fact that twenty-five persons of both sexes came up and joined us. The following is the letter ol Gov. Holden, of which we sincerely hope every person, especially- our people, will secure a copy. O. Hunter, Ju, W. S. Raleigh, N. C. May 28th, 1873. Mi?. Ciias. N. Hunter, 11". C. Queen South Lodge of Good I'emplara : Sin : Yours of yesterday,inviting me to address the Temperance Lodges to be assembled in Metropolitan Hall to-night, has been received. I regret my inability to be with you on this ocassion, but I respectfully aik leave to avail myself of the opportunity which is thus presented to me, to say a few words on the subject of Temperance. I have observed, for some time, with interest aud gratification, the move ments in progress among the colored race to promote temperance, or which is better, abstinence from ardent spirits. I am rejoiced to see many of our lead ing men advancing to the front in this movement. There is no evil under the sun so great as that of intemperance. It pervades, afflicts, and ultimately de-stioys-, body and soul, hundreds of thou sands ot our people. It is everywhere, in all circles, from the humble hut to the marble palace, holding its poor victims in its deadly coils, consigning all of them at last to poverty and want some of them to jails and penitentiaries, some of them to the gallows; disturbing the peace of families, breaking the hearts of mothers and sisters, entailing igno lance and vice and wretchedness on thousands of children, and sapping all the foundations of moral integrity among .those whom its influence reaches. Even tiie moderate use of ardent spirits", if this moderate use did- not almost always lead to habitual drunkenness, should be carefully avoided, for the ieason that it renders a fcnan unfit for business, pub'.ic or private. No man, though he may appear! at the the time to be sober, can put himself under the influence of ardent spirits without feeling that his judgment is either pervericd or beclouded. But moderate drinking, as I have intimated, almost always leads to confirmed drunkenness. The mod erate drinker of to-day may not, two years cr five years hence, be an habit ual drunkard, but he will be ultimately, unless something shall occur that shall cause him to abstain. And. then, oh my friends! When the vice shall have been fully confirmed in him and upon him when he thirsts, not for the Water of Life, but for whisky when his steps totter and his hands shake when the demon, and not the angel of his early days of innocence look3 forth fiercely from his bloodshot eyes when friends forsake him, and last, and covetousness and murder are in his heart, and he shambles from bar to bar begging for a drink, or waiting to be treated; credit gone, character' gone, good name gone ; none to care for him, it may be, but the poor wife whose poverty and sufferings are illuminated, bv the love she still bears U him, and who feels she could die for him if she could only thereby save him: when these things -be, - and they are occurring daily iri every neigh borhood, how it should animate us, as with a new and heavenly inspiration, to work, work, work in this cause, until the fallen ones shall have been rescued from the pit over which they are hang ing, and until all our people, ot both races, and both sexes, and all classes, shall have been roused to the duty of 1reventinq so inexpressible an evil. The only sure preventive total aosunence Ihe Good Templars are lite-long total ab3tinents. They occupy no middle ground.' : He who pirjeys when his integrity is at stake, is already lost, He who plas familiarly with the rat llesnake will be fatallr bitten. He who tampers with ardent spirits, whether in his own house, or at the festal board, or in a quiet, pleasant restaurant, will sure ly tail, lo drink at all is to recognize and to entertain as a friend that which is wholly evil. Temperance, in its true signification, is more difficult than abstilfence .Let us, then, labor to rescue those who have fallen, and, above all," to prevent drunkenness by cutting off the demaDd for ardent spirits. It is not necessary or advisable that we denounce or assail those who make aud sell ardent spirits. This article will be furnished as long as the demand exists If the fir bums. 6hall we go into it?. It is oiir own fault if we are drunkaids, vVe cannot devolve the re sponsibiJity for our own acts on the shoulders oi otners. iiuug, iwug ago, Eve was not excused when she laid the blame for her sin on the serpent. We must begin at the root of the evil by drying up or cutting off the demand for ardent spirits, and this can be done, as I think, most efficiently and success fully, by total abstinence. Hence my gratification at the existence of the Good Templars, and the remarkable success which has thus far attended their efforts. There are about ninety thousand col ored men in this State over the age of eighteen. It may be fairly estimated that twenty thousand of these expend daily each ten cents for ardent spirits. Twenty thousand multiplied by ten cents gives two thousand dollars. Thus, ten cents expended by ten men each would be one dollar ; ten cents expended by one hundred men each would be ten dol lars ; ten cents expended by one thou sand men each would be one hundred dollars; ten cents expended by ten thousand men each would be one thousand dollars, and ten cents expended by twenty thousand men each would be two thousand dol lars. There are three hundred and sixty-five days in a year. Multiply these days by ths above sum, two thou sand, and we have the enormous sum ol seven hundred and thirty thousand dol lars wasted by the colored men of this State who drink, every year, for ardent spirits alone ! Only think ol it, more than seven hundred tliousand dollars per annum thrown away for that which kills both body and soul ! This amount of money "Would build one hun dred churches at a cost of $2,000 each, and would then leave more than a half a million of dollars to educate the col ored children of the State ! And what a moral does this teach ! It is, abstain and be prosperous and . happy ; build your churches and educate your chil dren by what you might save ia saving yourselves; or drink, drink, and be lost physically, mentally, morally and spirit ually. There is no room to escape this conclusion. I appeal to every colored man, woman and child in the State to espouse the cause of total abstinence. From yiur Lodges, or Societies, my friends, and go to work in this good cause systematically. Arm yourselves with an iron will so that no obstiuction shall daunt you, or turn you aside from your purpose. Almighty God. who loves and pities you, and has been your God so in this Christian land, will you abundantly, if you will only who long help help vourselves. Succor the unhappy drunk ard. Go down into the ditch tor him. Put him on his.lcet. Treat him kindly, aud help him to lead a new life. And above all, keep those sober who are sober now, by prevailing on them never to taste ardent spirits or anything that has a tendency even to intoxicate; and guard 'with unceasing vigilance and earnest prayer the risiig generation of your race against this awful curse. These woids are addressed to you by one, who has ulways been your friend, who is the same friend to you he was at first, and who will never desert you so ong as you are true to yourselves. Let your motto be: "No dram shops, no drink of any kind that will intoxi cate, or tend to intoxication. We will save ourselves by saving our hard earn- ngs to obtain homes for our families, to build churches au4 to educate our chil dren." Do this, mv friends, and God will preserve you. and bless you, and make you prosperous and happy. Respectfully and truly, W. W. Holden. The Late Romantic Marriage in Iillsboro. We published a short time since an account of a romantic marriage between a South Carolina planter and a girl of some thirteen summers, residing n Hillsboro," N. C. Many of our ex changes thought it was a joke, but the Iillsboro Recorder has since declared it o be a fact, and a correspondent of the tichmond Enouirer, writing from Hills- boro under date oi ine zom oi Jiay, gives the full particulars ot the affair. Says the correspondent: "Three years ago John Tayior moved lis family here from Milton. Mr. Tay or was a saddler, and a hard-working man. tlis ousincss got ciun ncre, anu le went off to wotk and send money home, and his little boy Tom, about thir teen, ran off South and went to tbe plantation of a bpartanburg, b. C, planter named Cooper. Mr. Taylor has continued absent, and his worthy wife, with her little daughters, has been eke ing out an honest and hard-earned living. The oldest of these little girls was II attic, a small girl in short frocks, apparently about thirteen years old. But she was pretty; with eyes as black as a sloe in fall time. Tt seems the boy Tom had a photograph of lit tle Hattie along with him,' and one day exniuitea it 10 ine 4 1 planter. The latter fell in love with the picture, and a correspondence ensued between tbe grown man and the little girl. On Sunday morning of last week a Mr. Cooper, from Spartanburg, S. G., registered at the Orange Hotel, lie was an intelligent, good looking man, with side whiskers, and his '"get up" was a business suit, well and fashionably made. He stayed all day. .JNo one knew his-errand. The next evening he ordered" a hack to call that night in time lor the up' train, at Mrs. Taylor's. The driver asked who he should call lor, and the reply was, "None of your busi ness; you aie too inquisitive. That night Magistrate Lynch married the two, aud it is said here that the Squire.in performing the ceremony, asked, "Will you take: this' little girl to be your wile?" However this mayrbe, her age was' put down in the license at 15 years; but they took the train that night with another wedding couple from this place JMr. James Webb and blide), and the youthlul bride was in a plain and neat calico, her dress just touching her boot tops. Mr. Cooper looked to be about lorty. Miss Hattie was a nice little lady, and the many friends of the worthy mother are glad to believe her daughter has married a good and excellent man " Bishop Atkinson will confer the rite of confirmation at St. Augustine's Epis copal Church on "Wednesday evening next. Semi-Ceutennial of the Baptists ot Virginia More About Dr. Curry's Address Amount Raised II o w tbe Whole . $300,000 will be Realized North Carolina Delega tion Incidents, &c THIRD DAY'S PROCEEDINGS. BY OUR OWN REPORTER. Richmond, May 30 th, 1873. Dear News : My report of yester day's proceedings was abruptly ter minated by a call to business. I resume the account to-day. The Dispatch and Enquirer both have issued double sheets to-day to give prominence to an oc casion, which has created quite a sensa tion in this city. The Enquirer heads its account cf eleven columns, by a wood-cut of Richmond -College, and says: "Never perhaps in the history of any denomination has such a convoca tion been witnessed as that which gathered in the tabernacle on fthe Col lege grounds yesterdiy morning. In the shadow of the stately building that fifty years ago would have been a Utopia to the Baptists, there had been a vast canvass structure erected, and within it had assembled a congregation such as will seldom be seen again.'? I omitted to state that during his address, Dr. Curry exhibited to the audience an imported brick from the foundation of old Urbanna jail, the scene of the im prisonment of Waller and" others, and the lock and ikey which fastened the door of the jail which , confined Joseph Ireland and many other Baptist preach ers. . Dr. Burrows submitted a statement, at the close of the address, showing that about $20,000 had been given by the churches ol Virginia, and $20,000 by others States to the Memorial Fund ; that in many parts oi the State the people were poor, for five successive years crops had been cut short by drought, and yet in their poverty they. lad done nobly for the endowment ot their college. The churches had given their pastors and their money freely to this great enterprise, and he did not doubt but that the whole amount would be realized before the end of the year. A collection was then taken up uhffer the direction of Drs. Holston and Dick- erson, amounting to over $17,000. To day it is proposed to raise the amount to $250,000, and to apportion the re maining $50,000 among the churches, with the confident hope that the origi nal sum will all be collected. Considering all the circumstances, the results accomplished seem wonderful. It has , only been achieved by a spirit of wde spread enthusiasm, and prodigious efforts on the part of some forty or fifty of the leading men, minis ters and laymen who have made every thinr else subservient to this great work. The whole State has been stirred and people and churches have displayed cenerosity which has astonished themselves. Richmond .College now ms an endowment of not less than $350,000, a sum which will enable the institution to employ such teachers and make such-improvements as will place it in the front rank ol the Colleges of the and. But the money given is but one of the good ends attained by this great movement. It is a great thing lor a people to be capable of being stirred to enthusiasm by any great movement in principle, and show the self-respect and conciousness of power, and harmony and organization attained by such an achievement are ol unmeas-. urabie value. As in North Carolina we are trying to endow Davidson, Trinity and Wake Forest Colleges, I have re garded it as interesting and important to give some particulars of this great work in Virginia, that our people may see what has been done here and take urage. This morning there was a meeting of the Southern branch of the American Baptist Educational Commis sion, held in the study ot Dr. Curry, and it was resolved to make a general movement in all the States to raise du ring the National Centennial ol 187b, from three to five millions ot dol lars lor the better equipment of our institutions of learning. It is a grand conception, and I doubt not that a me morial offering will thus be made by a great denomination as a token of grati tude to Providence for the blessings which have attended their history during the past huodred years. I omitted to state in mv last that Dr. J. B. Jeter, who ha3 been in Europe for the past eleven months, and who was sent there to look after the interests of the Italian Baptist mission, has returned He states that the mission in Italy, gen- erally, is a great success, and that while there have been difficulties in the city of Rome, they even have not seriously interfered with the progress of the work. . Dr. Jeter is regarded as the ablest man in Virginia, and perhaps has more weight of personal influence than any Baptist minister in the Southt There are fourteen delegates from North Carolina here Revs. L. G. Mason, C. T. Bailey, T. W. Babb, J. J. McLen- den, J. M. G. Luke, J. t,. Montague, It H. Griffith and T. II. Pritchard, and Messrs. Sidney Lea, Gen. Wm. Lea, A. F. Barnes, C. V. Riddick, and J. iL. Pleasants. I think it is greatly to be regretted that there are not fifty, or a hundred ot the most prominent mem bers cf the Baptist Church of North Carolica here, for it is the racst inter esting and inspiring meeting your cor respondent has ever attended.

Fayetteville, May 30. Pursuant to adjournment the Con vention convened at 9 a. m. After the morning service, and the adminis tration of the Holy Communion, the Clergy adjourned to the Sunday School room for the purpose of making a nom ination for an Assistant Bishop of the Diocese. This body continued in ses sion for several hours, and late in the afternoon returned to the church where the laity were in waiting, and submitted several names. As the session was held with closed doors, of course nothing at this hour (G p. m.) is known, but it is generally understood that the names of lev. A. A. Watson, of Wilmington and Rev. Theodore B. Lyman, of San Fran cisco, Calilornia. are the most prominent before the Convention. Several other names have been pro posed, but the two mentioned received a majority of the votes. , 10:30 P. M. The Clergy, after thirty- our ballots, nominated the Rev. Theo dore B. Lyman, D. D., of San Francisco, as Assistant Bishop, which nomination was concurred in by the laity on the first ballot. There was no public session of the Convention to-day; the election of an Assistant Bishop being the only business done. t The exercises of the Wesleyan Academy, in charge of i Rev. S. R.
