We regret to learn, that the latest arrivals from the
Mediterranean, confirm the account Of the death of
General Vary. He died at Messina on the 2J of
December, of a malignant fever. in the 40th year of
his age. He was a man, in when was united every
amiable quality to very excellence that could adorn
human nature. To the numerous friends to whom
this paragraph will cause grief and AIR ctinn, little
consolation can be offered, but a reliance on the
DIVINIC Witt.. Superior as he was to all the frailties
of humanity, his loss is indeed bitterly to be deplored.
He has left a wife and seven children, the youngest
yet unable to speak.
