Th of two private watchmen, and the evidence of ‘owners of the property, all tend to show that the Po- iceman her has been concerned with some negroes in the ition of certain barrels of sugarhouse syrup, and barrels of oil. The property in uation hes Deen identified as that of Ellsworth & Giraud, a Oe i ; ene barrel of samnell, wales 5 ni ss their premises on the first ef January, Valued at §12, stolen from the premises of Hagger- ireen & Co., No. 126 West street. on eer Nevchans. was on the 34 of January found on a cartman’s cart, in one of the South Ferry boats, and restored to the owners. A few days after the proper- ty was discovered, policeman Meagher called upon the ts, and gave them to understand that it was through him they got back their property, and cach firm him ene dcilar .or his services. The whole evidence is very.curious, and forms another link of police discipline. ‘The following is the testimony: James Mcbride, of No. 92 Washington street, cartman, ‘sworn, say” that a few days before the last Thanks” ving day, about dark, as deponent was passing along est street with his horse and cart, and when near Li- he was called by a colored man, who asked deponent if he wanted s load, to which deponent said es, and asked, said colored man where the load was to taken to, and he replied, over in Stone street; depo- nent then ‘agreed to take the | load, ad said eolared man requested de to drive’ down upon the pier, where the load and stated that he had been waiting some time’ for their cartman, but was afraid he would not come; deponent then drove upon tke pier, when said colored man pointed out two Js; and said colored man, and another who was in his company, assisted deponent in putting the barrels on his cart; afier which the colored men accompanied de- nent to Stone street; and when near the premises of in B. Meagher, in suid street, said colored men called to deponent to stop; whereupon deponent backed up his cart between the premises of Meagher and the house ad- joining; the colored men then assisted deponent in taking waid barrels off the cart, and they were rolled towards the cellar door of the premises of Meagher; one of the black men then said to the other, ** what shall we do? I have t no money;’’ to which the other said ‘ we will go into the premises of Mr. Meagher, and see if we can borrow the money; one of the black men then went into Meagher’s house wit!: deponent, and, as I understood, asked Meagher for two shillings to pay me; said Meagher then threw two shillings upou the counter, which I took ‘and went away. a 5 Croas-examined.—I have been acquainted with Mr. Meagher for some t he treated me before I left the store on that occasion. Henry Linesburzh, of No. 7 James street, Brooklyn, Deing sworn, pays:—That he is a private watchman, and is employed to watch stores ou Stone and South William streets; and further, thatin the early part of December last, on « Saturday evening, near six o'clock, deponent saw acart back up in front of the house of Martin B. Meagher, and saw two or three men standing around the cart, and heard them take therefrom two barrels—one of them being sugarhouse syrup, and the other apparently @ barrel of oil Deponent proceeded up the street, and met private watchman Davison, who stated to deponent ‘the circumstance of two barrels being taken to the pre- mises of Meagher, when deponent replied that he had seen the two barrels dumped there. Davison then went im search of an officer, and returned, saying he could not find one. Deponent thea went away; and on returning, im about half an hour afterwards, found that the barrels had been takon away. Deponent afterwards saw officer Miller in front of said premises talking with Meagher, and deponent heard Meagher say that said barrels had been brought there by a cartman and two negroes, but that he knew nothing about them. Wm. Dayton, of Dean street, Brooklyn, being sworn, fays—That he is a private watchman, and employed to wateh stores in Pearl, Waier and Stone streets. Deponent further says, that about four weeks before the last holi days, at about a quarter past six in the evening, he saw a cart up in front of the house in Stone street ne by Martin B. We ther, and there saw the cariman and two colored men take frem said cart a barrel of oi] and a bar- rel of syrup, which said persons put on the sidewalk in front of said premises; when the barrels had been piaced on_the sidewalk, the cartman applied to one of the colored men for his cartage, when said colored man referred the eartman to Mr. Meagher, who was then standing in the doorway of bis premises: the cartman then went up to Meagher, and they both then went into the house; and as the cartman was going into the house, he called to the colored men to go in, but they refused to go in while de it was there; deponent then went in search ofa policeman te arrest » negroes and protect said bar- Tels, bat could not find one; next then returned and saw that the barrels still remained in the same place, he then on, acd on returning in about twenty min- utes afterwards, the suid barrels were gone, whereupon Geponent went to the First ward station house and re- ted the facts. Deponent further says that he knew Ene said negroes by sight, and had often seen them around that neighborhood, but did not know their names. Cross-examined.—I never detected these two negroes ing anything; I knew one of them to be taken to the station house, on suspicion of stealing, but he was dis- charged. In this matter, if the magistrate should not deem the evidence sufficiently strong to warrant helding the po- liceman to bail for a criminal offence, the papers will be forwarded to the Mayor for his decision. Arrest of a Female Fugitive —Last evening, officer Baker of the SixtI-ward police, arrested a young woman named mire Fonckbs, eburged with beingla fugive from Phila- Iphia, where she stands charged with having stole $50 f.om the dwelling house of Thomas Atkinsou. The money ‘was stolen about two weeka since, and the accused came to this city, and was found by the complainant at No. 87 Elm street. The accused was committed to await a re- quisition from the authorities of Pennsylvania an ae A _ terday moi t the Fourtee ward station-house, upon the body a woman—then unknown—who was found dead in one of the cells, at eight o'clock.

LECTURE UPON THE SUBJECT OF WATER, BY PKO- FESSOR SILLIMAN. Professor Silliman delivered a lecture upon the above subject last Thursday evening, at the Brook- lyn Institute, before a very large audience. On the two preceding evenings, the lecturer remarked, he addressed the audience upon the subject of volca- noes and the internal fires of the earth, and now he had to deal with water. The ancients selected water as one of the elements; but modern science had demonstrated it to be a compound, and subject to decomposition, as frequent experiments, even in our common schools, testified. Hydrogen and oxygen | are its elements. Hydrogen is the lightest body known, while oxygen is a little heavier than the atmosphere. One of the most beautiful results of scientific experiments is, that those elements which can do us no harm are let at large, such as diamonds, gold, iron, and other minerals, wh le isons are restrained by the hand of nature. The gas which illuminates our rooms is nox- ious to véntilation, and frequently luces results the most fatal, in consequence of mixture with the Shaoepeere, woien it poisons. The burning fluid so extensively used is a most dangerons article, being alcohol, and people are deceived.by it. As the fluid with which a lamp may be filled is burned out, the space it leaves 1s filled with explosive gases, and highly inflammable, which become ignited by prox- imity to alighted candle, and very often cause serious consequences, As the fluid burns down, the air be- comes impregnated with 6 and often draws the flame from the wick into the body of the lamp. The lecturer cautioned all against using this fluid. He would sooner thtnk of placing powder in the place of salt upon his supper table, than this burning fluid. In describing the mining lamp invented by Sir Humphrey Davy, he incidentally mentioned that a lamp had recently been invented, which he consider- ed perfectly safe. The tube containing the wick is composed ‘of wire gauze, which the flame cannot penetrate, and is therefore preferable to lamps not provided with this safeguard. Simple as it may appear, water, continued the lecturer, is the most general solvent known—so much so, that it dis- solves almost any substance it comes in contact with. It partakes of the nature of the land from which it arises, and is therefore impure. In a limestone country it partakes of lime; and those conntries with a rich alluvial soil are generally unhealthy—take the can drink and use are composed principally of water —eyen strong wines are composed of three-quarters water; they have, however, more brandy in them than wine. Brandy is one-half water. It is impos- sible for any one to drink it in its strongest state. Small beer is ninety-five parts water; blood, eight- tenths water; muscles, three-quarters water, and even the gastric juice, which dissolves our food contains a great proportion of water. There is water in everything. The lecturer instanced the case of a man who by accident lost one of his ribs, leaving an orifice which could never be healed up. The action of the gastric juice in his stomach could easily be obrerved, and it appeared that the fluid was only formed as occasion required, and when it was required. He procured some of the fluid from this stomach to experiment upon, and found that by placing it in a wine-glass, at a temperature of 198 ‘degrees, a piece of mutton would dissolve in it about as fast as in a human stomach. Wa- ter was not only the solvent of all food, but | was also alimentary. When people are placed under circumstances that they cannot obtain food, water will sustain life twenty, thirty, and even fifty days. All plants, except resinous, contain water—the tear in the peach and plumb tree is no more than a mixture of gum and water. Thus, animal and vegetable sub- stances are dependent upon water, and food could not digest without it. It is next in importance to air, and as indispensable—just what is needed by men, animals and plants, to sustain vitality. He advised young men to abide by water, as it was the only thing that would tend to prolong life, give them clear minds, and a vigorous old age. Water covers three-fourths of the globe; it rises in vapors, forms into clouds, and again descends in refresh- ing showers to animate the earth. It is never ex- hausted. It regulates the temperature, softens the rigor of cold, and neutralizes the heat; forms oceans, and connects continents. Great navies ride upon its billows, which, by the aid of condensed vapor, make distant countries near neighbors. As a motive wer, it is the cheapest mechanical agent, and con- Eibutes to the comfort and convenience of man. There are rivers deep in the bowels of the earth, as is proved by the artesian well at Paris,which emits a large body of water, 112 feet above the surface, from a depth of 1,800 feet under ground. The well at Luxembourg is ancther instance where water isforced up from a sere of 3,000 feet by subterranean pressure. Water, in the form of steam, is fast changing the nature of things. Space is lessened, and dangers are diminished.

Court of Common Pleas. Before Hon. Judge Woodraff. QUESTION AS TO THE LIABILITY OF COMMISSION MERCHANTS. Wm. H. Gray vs. Timothy W. Reeve.—This was an action for balance, alleged to be due on the sale of butter. The plaintiff delivered to defendant, who is a commission merchant, various quantities of but- ter, which defendant sold and paid plaintiff for some, but refused to pay for the rest, alleging that some of the purchasers had not paid him, and that he was not responsible. The plaintiff contended that it is the custom for commission merchants to guaranty to the owner the price of what he sells. The Judge, in his charge, said the only question for the jury to determine was, whether the defendant, as a commis- sion merchant, discharged his duty to the plaintiff in making the sales, and whether in doing so he exer- cised such care and prudence as a man would do in conducting his own business, with respect to the par- ties to whom he sold the butter, and that he used due diligence to collect the money. If he properly discharged his duty he was not liable; but it had not properly discharged his duty, then he was liable for the price of the article sold, after deducting his com- mission of two and a half per cent. Verdict for the defendant. Snockrye Surcipe iv Lirtie Rock, Ark.— Early on Monday morning last, says the Little Rock Gazette of the 4th inst., the lifeless body of Mr. | Walter Mitchell, a merchant in Markham street, in this city, was found stretched upon the ground, a | short distance in the rear of his store, with the | blade of a bowie knife sticking in his left breast al- most to the handle. Life was entirely extinct, and | the body cold and stiff when discovered, which | showed that he must have come to his death in the | early part of the preceding (Sunday) night. At first, it was aye he had been assassinated, but, on the assembling of a coroner's inquest, and an ex- | amination of the body, &c., the jury could come to | but one conclusion as to the cause of his death, and that was that it was produced by his own hand; and | that was made still more certain before they rendered their verdict, by finding the following notes, written by himself, on a sheet of paper in’ his room. The first is addressed to his little dangiter, now at school in New York. | “My dear Josephine, be a good gi from the last good bye Your affectionate Pa., W. MITCHELL.” If (1) am killed, it will be by my own hand. W. MITCHELL. Little Rock, 20th January, 1853. “1 forgive enemies. W. MITCHELL." At the top of the same half sheet, the following pee of a sentence was written by him, and then par- ‘ially wiped out before the ink had dried:—‘I have tried to act honorably, but the citizens of Little Rock would not all"—. Jt alao appeared in evidence be- fore the jury. that he had at times, for some ~ eee to his death, exhibited symptoms of an al ration of mind, and on Sunday evening he told his father that he meditated self-destruction. Upward of $400 in money was found on his person, and a londed six-shooter in one of his pockets. The jury found a verdict in accordance with the foregoing facts. Mr. Mitchell had been a merchant of our city for several years, and, during a large portion of the time, did as heavy a business as apy house in our city. Fancied troubles of a domestic nature, and possibly some derangement in his pecuniary affairs, are supposed to have caused him to commit the rash act which has terminoted his life. He was a native of Steuben county, N. Y., and was about 35 years of Ivsaye Asyiem at Inptanaro.is, Inp.—-We have the report of this institution before us. Of thore admitted into the institution daring the past year, there were sixty-three men and sixty-one wo- men. Recovered, thirty-one men and twenty-nine women. Of the remainder, ten of the men have im- proved. Six men and twelve women have died. Amonget the causes of insanity the delusion of the irit rappings stand nent. No less than eighteen cases of persons e from this cause have been admitted into the Asylum during the past poche a of these were men and five women. of these have been cured, and two others are expected to recover. Stems at York, Pa.—A call for a public meeting of mechanics at York, Pa., to take place on the inst., was published in the York papers. It invited machinists, moulders, nters, black- smiths, and tinners, and contemplated to make ar- | rangements to follow the example of their brethren in Baltimore, who are asking a reasonable advance | of their wages, composed of nothing but spirits of turpentine and | Southern States for example. All fluids that man | “| General Aseembl from Dr. Newman. and published the lecture which was the -subjectof or spoken to Dr. Achilli, and had no malice Dr. Achilli. Before composing been resident at Birmingham, and had many persons under his religious instruction, and he was informec that Dr. Achilli had been going about maligning the Roman Catholic faith. He believed that the charzes which had been made were true at the time he de- livered his lecture. Dr. Achilli had published a bok calculated to injure the Roman Catholic church. Be- fore deliverin, lecture he had read the articlein | the Dublin ew, which had subsequently ublished as a pe, with which, however, he d nothing to del her in composing or publishirg | the said article. In giving his lecture he relied the truth of the statements contained in the Dublia Review, and in publishing his lecture he alluded to that fact. He had also seen in the Record newspaper, a report with reference to the dismissal of Dr. Achilli from the Malta College, and he quoted in his affidavit several passages from the reports of the Missionary Society. In the course of the affidavit, Dr. Newman referred to several matters which had come to his knowledge since the publication of the | libel. He said that he received communications ftom Rome with respect to tne case of Rosa Allesandes, and a copy of an affidavit made by her at Rome, with respect to her seduction by Achilli at Viterbo. The affidavit then proceeded to detail the circumstawes of the different charges, and to state the modein which he had obtained his information, and furtler to state that he (Dr. Newman) had already been pit to great expense, and was liable for still greater ez- pense ; and that if he was confined in his presert state of health, fatal consequences would, in all proba bility, be the result. Alter some further proceedings, the Judge pro nounced the sentence, as follows :— Dr. John Henry Newman, I have now to pre nounce on you the judgment of the Court for publ isk ing a defamatory libel. You pleaded to the proseet- tion two pleas, one denying the act, and the othe: stating that the publication was for the public good Unless the charges were substantiated, it could not be said that the charge was for the public good, and the jury expressed its opinion untavorable to yeu The Judge then referred to the attempts which hac | been made to set aside the verdict, and as it wasa new case, the Judges allowed the attempt to be made, but ultimately discharged that rule; and the ground | for so doing was, that the Jury had rightly consider- | ed thematter. The Court having entered into a con- sideration of all the circumstances, and having heard your affidavits, &c., the Court is satisfied that you be- lieved that all the statements were true; and tl ey be- lieve that you are a man incapable of telling a false- | hood, and therefore it Reese implicit confidence in | your statement. The Court also believes that you ad no personal ill feeling against Dr. Achilli, but ' that you wished to defend the religion which you professed from the vile aspersions which had been cast upon it by Dr. Achilli, The learned Judge then referred to the evidence upon which the Jury had convicted him, and said that the Court was not en- tirely satisfied with the finding of the Jury, but at the same time there was not sufficient dissatisfaction toorder a new trial. The Court is bound to point out to you that on the plea of justification the evi- dence was not sufficient to sustain it. The learned Judge said that when he first read the charges he did 80 with great shame, and he was extremely sorry to | find that Dr. Newman should have ex, 1d himself in that way. The sentence which the Court pro- nounced by my mouth is not intended for one of exul- tation to either party—it was meted out in considera- tion of what you had done, and what were your mo- tives for doing it. The sentence is that you paya fine of £100 to the Queen, and that you be imprison- ed until it is paid. Dr. Newman was then removed. Domestic Miscellany. A dam, which had been erected for a tempora! ie ose, at Kingston Mills, Canada, gave way while jixty men were working at the pumps, and killed two men and injured several others. The names of the men killed were William Collins and Arthur, Gardner. Charles Hodges, of Rochester, a brakeman, was killed on the Rochester and ‘Syracuse Railroad, on | the 14th inst., by his head coming in contact with a bridge between Auburn and Syracuse. Zachariah Williams, a man of about 50 years of age, living at the foot of Washington street, Utica, left home on the 15th inst., and was found dead next day by the roadside, on the Bridgewater plank road, a short distance this side of the first toll gate from that city. He was of intemperate habits, and leaves a wife and several children. On the night of the Ist inst., the dwelling house and negro cabins of Mr. A. G. Moore, near Maysville, Madison Co., Ala., were destroyed by fire. Two ne- gro women and a child perished in the flames. Buri Autve.—Mrracvtovs Rescvr.—On the 5th inst., at McConnelsville, Morgan county, Ohio, Thomas Carter, descended, by means of a ladder, into a well thirty-five feet in depth, with the inter tion of securing some of the curbing that had ben iving away, He had scarcely got down beforehe | discovered that the whole above him was about ca'ing | in, and he began rapidly to ascend the ladder, He got up to within sixteen feet tly nd chere was caught by an immense body of , Wlidi filled all the space ‘below and above him. The citizens rallied to the epot and forthwith began diging him out, when it was discovered that there ws a small bags left, along the side of the ladderthrough | which they happily found that air could pnetrate. They called and found the poor man able to wk, and he, ‘in anticipation of their failure to getiim out alive, instructed some of his friends how toarrange his business. Finally they reached him, andrescued him unharmed from what all supposed was hope- less grave. Damace sy THE Storm at Lovisvit1e—The furious storm last night did considerable damge to | steamboats and flatboats. The steamer Lady ‘rank- lin, the Gossamer, and the mail line whaf-boat were left high and dry on the wharf. Thi Lady | Franklin has since been pulled off by the Pike. The Gossamer and the wharf-boat are lying a the wharf. The water has nearly left the Gossmer's keel. The Georgetown was also aground, ht is now again afloat. She had her rudder and gards aft broken. The new Empress was also left .ard aground. She was pulled off by the Pike. Several coalboats were sunk. One contained over 14000 bushels, lying between Sixth and Seventh streta, belonging to Eli Leizur. Another was sunk war the ferry landing. It was owned by Mr. Carrell, nd contained 9,000 bushels, and two laden with Bile Mountain coal were sunk. The coal will all be saed except, Brobably, that of Mr. Leizur.—Louisvlle Journal Feb. 14. Zanesvitte, On10.—A writer in the Cinci- nati Atlas gives the following history of Zane- ville :—In 1797, Ebenezer Zane and John McIntire with a few friendly Indians and pioneer woodsmen marked out the trace of the first road from Wheeling through Zanesville to Limestone, now Maysville Kentucky. This first road was ne crea for by the United States assigning to Zane three whole sec- tions of land, one of which he entered on the site of the present town of Zanesville, one at Lancaster, and one at Chillicothe. Zanesville, first called West- bourne, was laid out in 1799. Here Louis Philippe wasa guest during his wanderings in the United States, at an early day,and_ near here, at the neigh- boring Indian village of Wappatomika, on a 4, acres military track, fa settled General Jonathan Cass, a revolutionary officer, and father of Senator Cass.

Thomas went from Salisbury to Williston, Ver- mont, in the spring of 1774, and located himself in the valley of the {0 the midst of a then unbroken that the first fami- lier removed within the limits of the county of Chitten- ning of this year were nosettlers on the west side of the mountain, to the northward of Otter creek. Governor Chittenden died in August, 1797, all his chil- dren but one being at that time living.” Of one of them was the wife of Governor Galusha; another, of the somewhat celebrated Matthew Lyon, who was elect. ed to Congress while imprisoned for a violation of the alier law. Noah and Giles, two of his sons, resided in the towns of Jericho and Williston until their death, that of in 1836. Martin Chittenden, an- other son, for some time a member of Congress, and after- wards Governor of Vermont, waa a federalist during the war of 1814, but afterwards’ an equally ardent democrat. He died in Williston in 1840. ‘Truman was the last sur- viver of the family. The following anecdote of Goy. Thomas Chittenden, fa- ther of the deceased, is related by the Green Mountain Freeman:—Among the many ludicrous oecurrences*which have been related as growing out of the extreme plai ness and simplicity of the dress, appearance, habits, and tastes of Thomas Chittenden. the first Governor of Ver- mont, the following was related by one of the Governor contemporaries many years ago :— One fall, when the Legislature the Governor, who lived in Williston, took it into his head to go on foot to his post of official duty, a distance of about eighty miles. Accordingly, makin up his pack, he started off on foot and alone to'his destination, and 3 to meet at Norwich, his daughtora, | brought up at night at the log house of a new settler, | into which he entered, and craved lodging for the night. “Well, stranger,” said the settler in reply, after eyeing the new comer an instant, ‘we haven’t much to oat, and but one bed for myself and_wife ; but you look as if you might put up with a dish of bread and milk, and could sleep on the floor without hurting you.”” “Oh, certainly,” sald the Governor, ‘as hungry and tired as Tam, with a night so dark as this without, I shall be thankful to stay even at this.’” In pursuance of this agreement, the Governor, without making himself known, partook of the proffered meal, camped down on the floor, with his pack for a pillow, and was soon buried inslumber. During the night there was a driving shower, which, though it did not awaken any of the hard sleepers within, was so severe ag to rout an old sow with a litter of pigs from their nest in tho yard; when the restless animal, in search of dryer quarters, began rooting at the door, which she at length forced wide enough for an entrance, and coming in, lay down, with her well washed brood, by the side of the still un: awakened Governor, who snored on till daylight, when he awoke, and for the first time became aware of the presenco of his bed-fellows. He did not disturb them, however, or his humane entertainers, but silently strap- ping on his pack, and leaving # half crown on the table for his lodgings, proceeded on his journey. Dratu or Mx. Perer, T18 Barra Comsut at Purtapen- Pima.—We announce with sincere regret says, the Phila- delphia Inquirer of the 7th inst., the death of William Peter, Fsq.. H. B. Majesty's Consul for Pennsylvania and New Jersey. He departed this life after a short illness, at his residence, in four o’clock, in the 64th year of his age. Mr. Peter was appointed Consul in 1840, and occupied the post to the riod of his death. He was formerly a member of the ritish Parliament, having been returned to represent the borough of Badmin, in the county of Cornwall, and he distinguisked himself by his advocacy of whig and liberal measures. He was a gentleman of fine education, a polished writer, a ripe scholar, and the author of se- yeral able literary productions. In his capacity of Consul he was highly efficient, and was much esteemed and re- spected in this community. He married. some years ago, the widow of the late Edward King, and daughter of the late Governor Worthington, of Ohio. Mrs. Peter isa lady of cultivated mind, accomplisbed manners and indomit- able energy. In February of last year, while in Italy, on her way to Jerusalem, she ascended Mount Vesuvius without she aid of guides. with so little fatigue that she offered to re-ascend witb a party whom she met, in coming down, at the foot of the Cone. This for a lady consider- ably on wrong side of fifty, was no small achievement. Mr. William Wicker, of Pike county, Alabama, died at his residence on the 20th ult., aged 106 years. ’ The de- ceased served in the Revolutionary war. He was at the Dattle of Eutaw Springs, and was engaged, in several skirmishes with the British aad Tories under General Marion, of outh Carolina. The Austrian Archduke Raineer lately died at Botzen, onthe Tyrol. He was, with the exception of the Arch- duke Louis, the youngest brother of the Emperor Francis I. Mary Benton, aged 121 years, died at Elton;“hear Stock- ton-on-Tees, on the 7th'January. Tho old lady was ro- garded with unusual interest in her own eigunoehood and her cottage was seldom free from visiters, to whose bounty she was, no doubt, largely indebted for the hap- piness and comfort that gilded her declining days. Her eS was very much bent, her conversation was free and lively, and her eye, though dimmed, retained much of its former lustre, and she was able to dispense with the as- sistance of spectacles to the last. She was a native of \Cockfield, Durham, and she resided for some time at Long Newton, previous to ber coming to her daughter’s house, at Elton. A gentleman named Hill, aged 100 years, died recently, near Kells. He was one of the volunteers of 1782. John Cryer, of Walton-le-Dale, a Greenwich out-pen- sioner, died on the 13th January. The deceased fought der Lord Nelson, in hor Majesty's ship Conqueror, ptain Pellew, at Trafalgar, and received thi from the French commander-in-chief, Admiral Villeneuve, on rd the Bucentaure. He was at the taking of Genoa, land the storming of Cases; he also fought under General ‘Abercrombie in Fgypt, and served under Lord Exmouth for five years. This brave man was sergeant and ser- [ nares, of eiebpyal Marines, Plymouth division, for wenty-one years. The whole of his services during’ the French war were twenty-four years. Captain Joel Cody died at Syracuse, on the 2d instant, aged 60 years. Captain Cody was the first commander of a packet on the Erie Canal." He was captain of the won- der of the age in which it appeared—the packet boat ‘Walk-in-the-Water. He was widely known and generally esteeined. He had resided in Syracuse for thirty years. Died in Woodstock, Conn., Huldah, widow of Colonel Z. Tucker, aged ninety eight. She has left descendants in every State in the Union, thirty-seven of whom are in Massachusetts. Stock Sales.
