We have heard, but cannot vouch for the
of the report, that MIR. Morris
son, of Bcll-Air, Md, who, we informed our
readers was shot by one Of his scholars, is
since dead. The rutlian boy, is said to be a
grandson OF General Smith, Of Baltimore.
Our latest advices from England are by
the ship Lucilla, Capt. Wilson, which ar
rived at n. York on Monday evening last,
with Liverpool papers Of the 18th ut., and
London papers of the llth. In the House
Of Commons, OH the 9th, the Catholic bill
passed to a third reading, by majority of
II votes. No other matter of Importance
has transpired since the last arrival previous
to the Lucilla.
Two Instances Of sudden death occurred
in Philadelphia ON Saturday last from drink
ing cold water. We hope this will place
our good citizens OH their guard, and deter
them from drinking too freely of cold wa
ter while they are in a heat. If you are
warm and thirsty, first rinse your mouth,
then pour water on your wrists, after which
you may venturc to take two or three swai
lows 1T atime.
/ A regular line OF packet boats have been
established on the sschuylkill Canal, to ply
between Philadelphia and Reading, which
arc said to afford excellent accommodations
to passengers; and ,atho' at present laborlns
under some Inconvenience, from the imper-
feet state Of the tow paths, are able TO make
a trip in day and half The production
I, Of the soil Of the interior, is already foating
down the Canal in great abundance, and the
earth is yielding up its long hidden treasure
to the hand of enterprise.
Santana expedition against Cuba, turns
out 10 be a scheme of his own, and not a de-
sign Of the Mexican Government. We
thought it hardly probable, that this infant
, Republic, in its weak state, having but just
thrown of the chains OF seryitude, would
attempt such a mammoth undertaking. SAINT
ana, has been deprived Of his command,
and has re tired to the interior.
We have before us, says the Baltimore
j Chronicle, letter from Justice OF the
t Peace in Falmouth, Virginia, to a respecta-
bic merchant of this city, stating, that
man by the name of John Peters, aliss Con-
ncrs, had been arrested at that place, as the
/. murderer of Miss Cunningham.
/ He WAS taken up at the instance OF
travelling companion, by the name OF Grey
Barbour, to whom, he, when under the ex-
citemcnt of ardent spirits, had made a con-
. fcssl Of having murdered and violated Miss
! Cunningham, from whom he also stole a
: ring. which he had sold either in this City OF
Georgetown
This coyf4sson he subsequently made IN
the hearing ola third person, who was pur-
/, posely 81 erected to hear the conversation
: .rhc a!!idayits containing this evidence
have, as the letter states, been transmitted
to Goycnor Stevens.

they were enabled to fill the vessels witt
silk stockings and thread lace. A false bot
' tom was then left open. In this manner
!, the bottles were frequently carried ashore
n and if any inquiry was made by the search
q ing officer the answer was that they were
