MELANCHOLY DEATH ny DRowNfNG.--It falls
TO our lot TO record one of those painful and dis
tressing casualties, that SO frequently casts a
gloom over small communities, and harrows the
hearts of parents anl kindred with poignant
grief
On Sunday last BLApEN LowNDEs Esq, and
Mr.. Thomas b. BEALL, both of jefferson coun.
ty, went into the Opequon for the purpose Of ba-
Ching, short distance from the residence of Car
yer Willis, Esq Neither Of the gentlemen we
have understood were swimmers, and Mr. Lown-
des, improyidently yentured into deep water,
until he was drawn into hole from which he
could not eXtrcate himself Mr.. BeaIl immcdi-
atcly went to his relief, and, as is generally the
case, was seized by his drowning companion with
a grasp that threatened a watery grave to both
Alter some time Mr. b. being released gained the
shore IN state Of exhaustion, which left him
no ability TO rescue his friend who was under the
water, ran toward Mr.. Wilhs's house for assist
ance which was quickly on the spot, but the bo-
dy of the unfortunate Lowndes could not be re-
covered until the vital spark had fled
Medical assistance was soon at hand and the
usual means Of resuscitation resorted to, rather
with the faint hope which humanity dictates
than any that the case could Justify.
Mr.. Lowndes was Young gentleman ofhand =
some talents ard acquiremo nts, and had recently
entered upon the practice Of the law, with the
brightest prospects Of honor and usefulness to
himself, his family, and his country.

Fatal accidental melancholy aud fatal oc-
currcnce took place at the Military Academy
at West Point, on Monday last. During the re-
cess Of study, IL appears, that two Of the Cadets
took turn, for amusement, at fencing unmask-

at the end 1t the course of few passes, one oil
them, Mr.. Carter Of Virginia, received the
point Of ms opponents weapon in his eye,
whence it penetrated into the brain, and caused
his death in the course of eight or nine hours.
The New York Courier states that this is the
third son Of Mr., Carter who had met an untime-
ly end. The death Of his eldest son was in con-
sequence OF duel that of the second was the
result of an accident; and now the third has been
suddenly called hence, in the manner above al

VIRGINIA DELEaArIoN.-Wi what biting
contempt were they treated by the New
ork Regency, as soon as it was found that they
were not disposed TO be led about by the nose
whcrcsocver the Regency chose A motion was
made in Convention, and agreed TO, that mem
Der Of each delegation should meet the Virginia,
TO have conference with them but on the hint
being given by the Regency, scarcely a single in
dyidnai from the other delegation obeyed the
order ofthe Convention. The persons composing
the maorities would not act; aad Virginia had
the conferences nearly TO herself! After the
great exertions made by Mr.. Rivcs' friends du;
ring the last electioneering campaign, they had
a right TO expect 10 be treated with common de-
ceHcy, AT least. They might have paid them
that much respect to listen TO what they had
TO say, although Predetermined to pay no atteu
tion TO it afterwards, u. s. Telegraph.

arz- Ma. SPEAKER BELL.--The citizens Of
Nashville, gave this gentleman public dinner
on the 23d May, as a testimonial Of their respect
for his eminent abilities. and their mistaken con-
fidencc in his unwavering integrity. Several spi-
rited toasts were drank on the occasion, and Mr.
Bell is said to have addressed the company in
an eloquent and elaborate speech.--Among the
toasts, we find the following hit at the late Balti
more Convention, by the Hon. Baltic Peyton.
mernber Of Congress from Tennessee.
"IAe people ofhe United States-Intellsent
enough for the selection Of their public officers
they will sternly rebuke the attempt Of self-con

considerable length Of time, in visiting and
examining the pensioners living in the

derstand, he has completed his business /;
and that in the two former Of these cOuu
ties very lerSe portion of the pensioners

mendaiion Of the said attorney, stricken
from the pension roll, by order of the ex-
ecutire.
Ii is said that the manner of the pro-
ceedlng of the attorney is somewhat after
this wise. That he visits the peusioner-
enters into conversation with him about
his revolutionary and frontier services -
compares the substance of such converse

Ma. WEBsrEa.-The Wings of Boston held
meeting at Fanucil Hall, on the 25ult., the OBJ
jcct Of which was 10 concert measures TO secure
the election, to the next presidency, Ct the dis
tinguished indy idual whose name stands at the
head of this artile. The meeting was called 10
order by George Darracott, Esq whereupon the
lion. John c. Gray, was elected President, S.
Fairbanks and p. sprague, Esqs., V. Priests,
and Messrs. L. p. Crowninshield, II. Edwards.
W. 7. Eusts, and A. SImonds, Secretaries.
The meeting is said TO have been the largest
for political purposes, that has assembled in that
city for many years. The resolutions adopted
by the meeting, from the reading OF which we
have just risen, the most spirited and dec ided
of any, that we have lately seen. They evince a
spirit ofindepedence s determination in the sup
port Of their candidate, which will 1 once give
a quietus 10 the charge, that there was DISPOSE
ton on the part Of the Wings Of New England
to desert their nciples-sacrifce the uomina
ton of the gifted and eloquent defender Of the
constitution, & connect themselves with the for
tunes Of Van Buren,, which has been preferred
against them b. some of the most prominent Jour-
nails in the middle and southern parts of the Union
They exhibit the same frmness Of disposition,
the same rcsoluteness ofPurpose, which in other
times, manifested by their forefathers, and
to which we in a great measure indebted for
some of the greatest and richest blessings ever
enjoy ed by any portion Of the human family
the inestimabe blessings of free government
We have only room for the following, which
we think will not fail of meeting with hearty
response from every candid and unprcjudiced
man in the country.
60 Resoloed. That we ardenty desire the re-
turn Of constitutional times that we are weary
OF the violence, tumult, and corruption, which
prevail in the land, and have been raised to
high places; that we weary of continued APP
peals, by the highest functionarics, TO the pas
sions of The people, against the Laws and Com
stituiion, in which the liberties of the people are
enshrined that we are weary Of seeing the pub
lie servants assuming to be called masters substi-
tuting their own will instead of the law, as
rule OF action and that we iremble for the per
mancuce OF our republican Institutions daily wres-
tod from their proper end--the welfare of the
country -aad made the cloak of the worst abuses
OF the wors, governments"

A SCRAP

THE APPLICATION LEFT TO THE READER.
There are periods in the history Of eve
ry Government, in which the majority
pursue a course opposed TO justice and
good policy. The Inhexible statesman
and patriot at such time is bound TO raise
his voice against the course of the erring
majority, lie may go with the man, and
hazard obIoquy and rcproach under cover
of numbers; but snch conduct would be
dishonest and iime. serving. He has du.
ties TO perform. which should place him
above fear and temptation To speak in
liberal sense, the statesman acts not for
the present alone and bis immediate
countrymen, but for all time to come and
the human race. He. therefore, must
not permit his actions 10 be governed and
swayed by the caprice. prejudice, passion
or cupidity of the times. He must take
an elevated stand FOR THE RIGHr-eare
less of temporary consequences, He must
expose himself fearlessly TO the storm Of
popular clamor. 1t may rage for a time,
and iearfully-but the fiercer its wrath,
the sooner its strength will be exhausted.

Presidency, up the Van Buren, flag and how

we wish hereafter to dispense with all such con-
ventions. We see the evils in which they may
involve us-the mischiefs they may produce -
and we pledge ourselves more TO the peo-
pie, to bring up the subject again and 10 press
it with all our energy upon the State LegiSa
lures. But there is no time to amend the consti-
tuition, for the next elcction-and hence il be-
comes duty TO unite upon some candidate for
the presidency, and to battle the schemes of the

A party Of pleasure. including the fa,ni
ly Of Col. Walbacb, Commandant effort
Severn, embarked on Monday last, and
after spending delightful day upon the
water rambling over the beautiful green
banks of the Severn, and partaking of a
repast upon the shores Of the Round Bay.
the schooner was returning with the par
ty in the evening, when sudden flaw Of
wind struck her-the main boom iibed,
and carried one Of the young ladies ever
board. Quick as thought, Lieut.. J. J. b.
Walbach, Of the u. States Navy. plunged
into the river TO save her. The spring.
by which he designed TO throw himself as
near as possible TO her, owing TO sudden
careen of the vessel, was the means of
plunging him to great depth. When be
rose the object Of bis anxiety was no
longer to be seen. Nearing the spot, how
ever. she was discerned sinking below the
waves. On being brought up she very
naturally chung to the only object within
her reach, for safety, but unfortunately in
such manner, as TO deprive him of the
pewer Of motion, necessary TO keep above
water. In short time, both sunk to-
gether.
Ralying his strength, with an effort, he
rose again with his fair charge, and not
only sustained her long enough for her TO
breathe afresh, but with the utmost pres
ence of mind, made dispositions 10 keep
afloat; but entangled with clothes, and
disabled from motion, his buoyance, soon,
Of course. became exhausted, and both
