UNroRruNArE OCCURRENCE. Letters

UNFORTUNATE OccURRENCE. Letters
were received in this town, on Wednes-
day last, from Valparaiso, stating the al
rival there of the whale ship Catharine,
Capt. Paddock, of this port, and some
particulars of a melancholy affair in which
the captain was engaged. We have not
been able to obtain sight of the letters,
but the circumstances, as we understand
them, were an follows: After the arrival
of the Catharine, Capt. Paddock went on
shore in deranged state Of mind, and,
entering merchants compiling room, kill
ed both of his clerks. He then went into
the street, and attacked two Spaniards,
one of whom he killed on the spot, and
wounded the other severely. He then
struck at six or eight more persons, seve-
rol Of whom he injured. He was AFTER
ward apprehended, tried, and sentenced
10 be shot; but the American Consul in
lerlered, and a new trial was granted.

| MONTREAL, April 8. The friends Of

sympathies aud deep commiseration Of a
numerous assemblage. A young lady,

his forgiveness of her friends by her last

latter case, and in that alone we are able
to compel him to pay the forfeit by his
death-a violent, ignonimious, and SHAME
ful death. How awful, how terrific, un-
der his responsibilities, is the situation Of
this wretched man! Dewey has been
arrested and committed to gaol at PIatts-
burgh. After he had cut his wile's
throat, he proceeded to the carter's in or

ed him place where he ordered him Ia
wait but on returning home to obtain his
runk, in which we're his clothes and mon
sy, turning from st Vincent street into
St Paul street, he saw a crowd around
his door, and Immediately ran back, and
umped into the sleigh, and proceeded
With the utmost haste TO cross the river.

Providence and Sionnington Rail Road.
IA Company has been Incorporated by
the Legislature Of Connecticut and
Rhode, Island for the purpose of con struct-
ing a Rail Road from Providence to
Stoninet. IN in Connecticut, in continue
tion of the Boston and Providence Road.
Providence is nearly, midway between
The extreme points. Stonington has
much to recommend il us the point OF un-
ion between land and water conveyanc es.
The harbour by help of a break-water, Is
quite secure, and is seldom, if ever, OBJ
structesi by ice. II will relieve the route
from the dissgreeab!e matter Of going
round Point Judith, and bring the whole
passage under the cover of Long Island.
But the most important matter according
to modern estimation is, that it will save
several hours oftime in reaching Provi-
dsnce.
That seat of manufacturing enterprise
and prosperity will be brought within ten
hoers of ue, and Boston within twelve.

mate, ,whichis based Upon the locomotive
