On ¥riday morning Mr. S8mith left bis wife and two children at their home on the corner of Third and Primm streets, to go to Biufl Lake, five miles cast of East Carondelet, to cateh frogs. Iie crossed the riverina ki, and securely fastened it with o chaln and pad- lock to the forry-dock. At about 7 o'clock Fri- day eventog Mr. Smith was metata polnt a quarter of 8 mile from the landing by an Inti- mate and life-lopg friend named Mitler, who 'was also out on a frog-catching expedition. Ar, Bmith remarked that he had had good luck, and had caught sixteen dozen froge, which ha bad fo a bag slung over his back. Mr. Smith passed on bis way to the landing, and that was the last acen or heard of bim wp to last might. The ferry-boat loft the [1linols shore for her last trip to Carondelct at ten minutes to 6 o'clock on Friday cvening, and remained on this side. On Saturday nights the twoends of askiff were noticed sticking out of tho river at the foot of Eiwood strect,and near the bank. A man waded out and dragged it ashore. It was ro-* cognizea at once as that of Smith, ‘The skifl was flled with’ stoncs, which had been put In to sfuk i, aud it was only the de- cline of the river that brought {t to light. El wood strect Is nearly two miles north of the line drawn between the two ferry landings. The family of Mr. Smith, already alarmed at his prolunged absence, were now the victims of the most terrible forebodings, and Capt.

He croased the river and made a thorough examinution of the terry land- inz where it is reasonable to lllpPold Mr. Binith met his death, and made two jmportant discoverics. Some jron fllings were dlscovered ot the point where the skiff had been fastened, and there was o large patch of blood stalning the timber. Capt, O'Neil cut ous the bloody wood, and brought 1t to this sido of the river. That a murder hus been commigged there can be no reazonable doubt, nod the most piausible theory, and the one favored by tho polige, is as follawa: It was about half-past 7 o'clock whew Mr. Smith arrived ot the ferry land- Ing, Intending to cross to his homo jat once. He tinds sume men flling away at the chain which sccured his skiff. The men—rumor says three—refuse to desist except they be taken across.
