Woll Known Citizen orCreston Takes Unto Himself n Wire. Last evening at. 8 o'olook a very quiet littlo wodding occurred at tho home of Itcv. nnd Mth. 0. S. Striker, on south lull, when Mr. James W. 1'usohal nnd Miss Lida Halo plighted their troth at tho imarriago alter. Ilav. Mr, Stryker, who is an old friend of the contracting parties, tied the nuptial knot which was witnessed by only a few intimate frionds. After tho words wcro spoken making Mr. Pasohal and his bride man and wife, they repaired to a eozv homo on South 'Vino street, which had been preparod by tho groom for his brido, where the; will reside. Jnmos was rather sly in making his marriage arrangements and only a few of his intimato ftiemls were awaro of the faot that ho contemplat ed matriuony until yesterday when tho secret leaked out and the event was tho subJQot of gonoral comment about tho court house, where reporters and officials anxiously awaited the coining of tho groom for tho legal document giving him permission to tved, but ho did not appear at the clerk's offico until six o'eleok. Al though friends of Mr. and Mrs. Pusoliul wcro soinowhnt surprised, yot the tuurringo is looked upon with sat isfaetion nad pleasure Mr. Paschal is well known and highly rcppcctcd in Union county and numbers his friends by tho sooro. Ho has resided hero winy years and owns a fino farm just east of tho city. Ho lias at all limes boon looked upon as ono of our best citizens and has always takcu an aotivo part in publio enterprises. Ho is possessed of a nice amount of this world's goods nnd is situated so that ho can enjoy lifo. His bride is quito well known in Ures ton having resided hero about two yoars. She has known Mr. Pasohal sinoo childhood and is well acquaint ed with Lis life's history. Sho is highly spoken of by thoso who know her as a lady of culture and refine ment.

Ed Beacon: Pencil in hand (ink is played out) I shall endeavor to drop you a few moro strings in regard to the "ups and downs'' of Co, A. I presume you are already awaro of our proceedings up to the timo ef our de parture from Commerce as "R. W. S." wroto yoa from that point. We left Commerce en routo for New Madrid Feb. 28, mnrohed about twenty miles and camped for tho night on a f arm belonging to Col. Hunter of tho Rebel army; heard that Jiff Thompson had been thero tho samo day for tho pur poso of planting oannon so as to oom mand the road (for about a half mile) which led ao.oss a slaugh, but our foroe being much stronger than lie anticipated, ho loft on "double quick" forgetting to cat his dinner, which our advanco guard found steaming hot on tho table, of courso they didn't cat it soldiers don't liko warm meals on a march. The next morning wo resumed our march and aftor travel ing five or six miles we heard a volloy er two ef musketry and the booming sound ef several pioecs of artillery. Our Colonel cavo tho command to gallop march, and away went the "bloody seventh" hcltcr skelter, nip and tuok, in tho direotion from whence tho sound proceeded; after go ing it strong for four or flro miles we overtook soma infantry and ascertain ed that whilo Jeff was planting his oannon in a lano for tho pupeso of sweeping JNolemao s Laval ry which had boon persuing him all night, (bat of which wo know nething) a company of Infantry that had boon guarding tho railroad near Saxton pitehed into tho old swamp Fox and his ragamuffin squad sending him and hia artillery (after he had fired a few rounds) oa quiok time towards New Madrid. As soon a8 our Colonel had ascertain ed the above facts ho detatched our company to mako a flank movement on Jeff's loft, Company D. on the right and Company II. to follow on tho road. It would have mado a mule laugh to sco tho strife between some of our boys and some ef company Fl's to see which could overtako old Jeff and get killed first; but as Company II had tho road thoy had tho advan tage of us and after pursuing him about eight miles succeeded in cap turing his artillery consisting of three rifled breeoh loading cannon, ono brass and two steel pieoes; killed ono man and captured a captain, a lieutenant a quartermaster and several privates; but old Jeff, as utaal had his running rig on and escaped. The next day after the class our regiment proceed ed in advanco of the main army nad mado a reeoueiiancs of Madrid. Part of the regime at advanced withia a milo of town. The enemy threw a few rotten shells at us from their gun boats killing one horse, no other dam age done. Wo returned baok to the main army and encamped for the night. The next morning the whole entiro force proceeded towards Ma drid. Threo regiments of infantry wcro doploycd as skirmishers with our cavalry to support them. Wo ad vance to within a half milo of ono of their fort?, (ef whioh they have three) when we wero discovered by them and immediately their gunboats com menced tossing shells at us; at first they throw their shells entirely too high, whioh considerably amaiod sotno of our boys; among tho rest Corporal No 3 appeared to be parti eularly dolighted with the fua. "Go it old fellow," says ho, as a sholl pass ed soreaming aud hissing high up .in tho air. Boys," says he, "how do you like the sound of thou fellows; let's go down and tako tho town, thoy ean't lit us." Pretty seon aleag corao a sixty-four pounder and burst cd about one hundred yards ahead of us. Tho Corporal's eyes began to protrudo considerably, '"Corporal," says Pete, "lot's ge down and take tho town." "01 held on, lets wait awhilo, there is no uao of being in a hurry." He had scarcely spokon when a shell passed just over our heads, strik ing tho ground immediately in our rear. Corporal eould stand it no longer, but rashing up to our Litu tenant, exolaimad, "Lieutenant let us be getting away from hero. I believe I can sss just as well a little further of." "Bat how abeut the tewa, Car paral?" ' "Ok I let tha tewa go ta tha Devil er Memphis, I don't caro which; it is NO account after W do luku il, buttides suniu of us may get hurt for thoy throw them shells a d d sight atraightcr tl.nn I thought thoy could. '' After obtaining all the informalien we eould in regord to tho position of tho enemy's defences, our forces wers drawn off some three miles from town where we pitched tents and whore we will remain. From the best informa tion I oan gain, it is the intention of tho Qenaral commanding hero to avrait the arrival of nurgunbnts from Cairo (which wo rxpect dnilt) so they ean cngago thn enemy's boats while wo tako tho town, whioli we will do or eollnpso. 'Tis but a short t'me Finoo I wroto you last, yet mans1-nnd sad have been tho changes in Company A. The death of Mi near nnd Dcnhntu was quiokly followed by Fox and Craig being taken by tho enemy. On our march down hero Sorgeant II. M. Wil sen was captured by sotno of Jeff Thompson'n men nnd is probably now in Menphis; and last night wo po formed the painful duty of burying Eli Thayer. Ho was taken on the 2,id with a conjestive chill nnd linger ed till yesterday when death put nn end to his sufferings. All was done for him that possibly could be done by men plaotd in our present circum stances but to no avail, his spirit has winged its flight to the God who gave it. Death, even when surrounded by relatives and all tho heart holds dear is sad and mournful, how much more so must it be whon no kindrod are nigh? Here was no kind sisters's baud to smooth the pillow on whioh rested his weary head; no fond mother to batho his nulling brow; no indul gent father to bid farewell; no brother to receive and excoutu hit last dying requests and follow him to his lant resting plaeo. The cold March wind sighed mournfully through the leaf less breaches of n wido spreading ap ple treo bb his brother soldiers lower ed him into tho grave. Tho tear of i-ynipitliy coursed its way down many a rough and weather beaten cheek as our old Chaplain earnestly prayed for tho wclfaro of tho soul that had fl d. As a friend ho was firm and true; no better seldier ever lost liis lifo in his country's ser vice; ho always did his daty willingly and uncomplainingly. His untimely fate has cast a gloom over company A. that tinin oan never disnol. Bui he is gone from our midst; "let him rest." When next I writo it will be from tho inside of the fortifications at Madrid or I am a goner. Yours full of fight, Hambmno Jake, r Highest Quality of Ail.
