Two MEN STARVED TO PEAT-D.—ln the terrific
storm of Monday week, memorable in the north of Becalmed,
James MaodonaM and John Mackay, both residing In the
parish of Bogart, Sutherlandatire, the former deaf and dumb, '
left their homes., for the purpose of ►ttending the funeral of •
relative. The funnel :prontedos, which othedsted of
not more than twenty individuals, had to travel,
during the,ercesses of the storm, • distance of from
tan to twelve mike over • trackless errata, four men,
as is customary cis sixth occasion., taking by rune the edits:
on their abonMars. They arrived at the churchyard, in the
parish of Creich, at a late hour, and after coniugaing the
veteran's remains to the grave, they returned homewards,
the storm still continuing with unabated virulence, amidst
• hurricane of wind, rain, and 'DOW. Several of the pug ar-
rived at an inn, where nothing could be got but inferior
whisky and • plateful of oatmeal. The party then
separated. Mackay and Macdonald bad to go through •
large moor, where the former soon found himself rapidly
giving way, through hunger and fatigue. Macdonald, poor
fellow, unable to do much, did all he could to keep up his
starving companion, but in vain. He was carried to the
nearest hones, where he soon after expired. Macdonald had
not gone much farther, in company with a young man,
when he also gave up. His young companion there-
upon nobly took hum on his back, and endea-
voured to carry him to the first house, which
was at a considerable distance, but, being hinted( also worn
oat with hunger and fatigue, he was unable to carry out his '
generous purpose. Leaving poor Macdonald lying on the
, sneer, he harried as fast as he could to • distant dwelling,
' where he obtained 11110001,1 r, but on arriving ►t the spot where
I Macdonald was left, it was found that the cold band of death
had been lad upon lam in the interval.—Nortiters Emigre.
