Fatal .9aidentsat"~Te regret to state that a de-
pIoyable a~ccilent. which resulted in the instant
death of a gentleman from Cincinnati, took place
at an early hour Yesterday morning, near Darby
creek, about fourteen miles west of this place.
The deceased, whose name, we are informed, was
ARCHIBALD Graham, wa. on his way to the East;
when, owing to the slippery state of the road. the
stage, which was crowded with passengers. sud.
denly turned over. Mr.. Graham was sitting
near one Of the doors; and. it is supposed. either
attempted to jump out. or fell out, and was caught
under the falling vehicle. Every e~xertion was
promptly made TO e~xtricate him from his peyilous
situation; but before the stage could be rIghted.
the vital spark had fled forever. He VAS a Young
man, and had emisrated from New York only a
short time since. His remains have been brought
up to this place, where they are to be intcrred.-
No blame is attached to the driver.

Does ice erer ~Sink?-Being in company the
other evening. the subject of the floating ice in
the Delaware, was brought forward, when one Of
the gentlemen advanced the idea that it would
soon sink, which raised an opposition immedi.
ately. He, however. found supporters raIlyins
around his standard, and the two parties kept up
a long and warm scientific, chemical and p%hileso-
phical controversy. The opponents Of the doc
trine maintained that in no case, whatever,
was it possible for ice to sink, for in its very ma.
ture it was specifically lighter than water, and
could not BE- made to sink, except by the addition
or mixture Of substances, which were sprciical-
Iy heavier than water. But | will not take up
time in relating the arguments. Being perfectly
uniformed on those matters. | did not. OF course,
join in the argument, but listened until it closed,
each one being of the same opinion with which he
set out. For my part. | am not satisfied yet,
and make this matter pubic. that some scientific
person, one who actually knows. and can prove
the fact or otherwise, may favor ME with the real
truth of the matter. ! will state the question at
full length, that it may be understood Does
Ice floating in rivers or in the sea disappear by
actually dissolving into water, or does it in any
case disappear by sINKlNe?"-POuisoa's i'm.
