Melancholy .accidem.-It is our painful
duty to record the death of two of our
most intelligent and promising young men
in this town by drowning, yesterday
morning at 6 o'clock. One ofthcm, Mr..
William p. StillcelI, only son, and part
ner of Mr.. Nicholas Stillwcll, in the god
year of his age; the other, Mr.. Christie
pher Lothrop, youngest son ofthe late Mr..
Zcbediah Lothrop, in his 10Th year.
They left their homes early in the morn
ing for the purpose of bathing. The
youngest ofthc deceased being unable to
swim, his friend, who was good swim
NOR, cndeavorcd to rescue him; but in the
attempt was clenchcd by the drowning
man and drawn down into the waters;
they were found clung together.
Their bodies were recovered in abou,
two hours after they were drowned, in
Seekonk River, near the Central Bridge.
Their funeral will take place from their
late residence in John street, this morn
ing at o'clock. The deceased had a
large circle ofrclations and friends, whose
countcnanccs are filed with the deepest
gloom at this melancholy event.

ton to the times, "a selfcOmmand that new
er makes personal enemy, a caution
that never commits itself upon doubtful
results, entire prudence in talking, all the
wisdom that is contained in the most com
prehensive definition of cunning with
the art of turning every thing that possi-
bly, can be turned, to his personal advan-
Itage-by the force and unremitted exer-
tions Of these traits, the subject Of these
observations has priggled himself into
eminence, it may be safely asserted with
out the exhibitions or possession of one
single great, generous or striking quail

to be estimated by comparative success,
the life Of the Secretary might lead us to
prefer nattery over plain dealing, trick
and dextcrity over reasoning, fact over
honesty, and management over wisdom.
The selfish cunning Of the man needs
no illustration; if it did, we might rccitc
the means he has successfully used to Sc
cure a predominating influence over the
mind of the President. 1t is well known
that this has been, by his ostentatious
attentions to one, whom the President
made it his darling object, to force into
a circle indisposed to receive her. The
obsequious attentions Of the Secretary OF
State, Facilitated the importunt State pur-
pose, and contributed to secure partial il
not universal success. We might men
ton another instance; in his lingering at
Albany, until the first fury OF proscrip-
ton was exhausted; thus gaining the
credit Of moderation, and avoiding any
share Of the odium, while his subsequent
acts and previous intimations in the Sen
ate, furnish the strongest presumptivc
evidence, that he was secretly using hi:

cription. To him, too, the nation is in

happened to mar the pleasures ofthe day.

The anniversary of our National Inde-
pendencc was celebrated in the City of
Washington on the 9Th. After the De-
claration Of Independence was read, an
oration was pronounced by Richard S.
Coke, Esq. "who bestowed a Just tribute
of honor and respect to HENRY CLAY"
Upwards ofthree hundred gentlemen sat
down to an excellent dinner prepared for
the occasion, at which VIM. V. Seaton,
esq. presided, assisted by several Vice
Presidents. A number of toasts were
offered on the occasion, from which we
select the following:
After the regular toast, Mr. Scaton
made a neat introduction to the annexed
toast proposed by the Committee of Ar
rangemcnts.

son said, ellis career thus far in life has

PRESIDENT JACKSON. We observe,
with feelings neither of JOY nor sorrow,
that the reception of the President at his
various stopping places on his tour to the
Hermitage and elsewhere, has been in
most instances, of a cast in no wise cal
culated to fatter his vanity, soothe his
feelings, or raise his hopes; particularly
when viewed with the hnrah-boy well
come with which he was greeted at the
same places, on his journey to the Capt.
tai but little over year since. Judg-
ing from the past, we would advise the
President, with feelings of tenderness
and pity, in March 1888, when he will
be called to make his final return to Ten
ncsscc, to take q different and entirely
ne,o route. We also learn, with emotions
of incxpressible delight, that HENRY
CLAY is doing well, very well, all over
the land.
SECRETARY VAN BUREN. We publish
in this days paper, from that able Jour
nal the Virginia Wing, a sketch of the
public character of President Jackson's
Premier. 1t is drawn with masters
pen, and is true to the very life. We
bcspeak in its favora careful and thought
full reading |; the paper clearly shows
what constitutes cunning politician.
Il ---+ee e...--.
THE WEATHER. During the whole Of
the last six days, we have had contn-
ual series of excessively warm weather:
the thermometer for the greater part of
each day, ranging from 80 to 33. Still
at the close Of every day, we have been
refreshed with gentle and cooling sea
breezes, enabling oil to enjoy with a
higher zest, "tired natures sweet re-
storer."
THEATRE. The performances for this
evening are intended for the benefit OF
MIR. Sarzcdas. We know of no one in
the company more deserving, both as a
gentleman and an actor, than Mr.. S.

will be very acceptable to him.

sCeA friend of ours is anxious to know
who is responsible for the neglect exhibi-
ted with regard to the stagnant water and
mud, that has decorated the foot of Wash
ington square during ahl this warm wea-
ther, much to the annoyance of the ma
sal organs of every one that passes that
way. The appearance of it is certainly
not very creditable to the town, especial
ly at this season of the year when there
are so many strangers in the place. The
proper authorities should look to it.
