three persons were suiIocated on board the Massa-

The names of the men who have thus come to an
uniimely death are as follows Jehn Oswold, chief
engineer; Russell Cole second do, and VIM. Wilbur,
assistant in engine room.

The three unfortunate men retired 10 rest together'
und not appearing as usual at their ooaioe nouse ~
breakfast time, the mate went on board to make en-
quiry and discovered them as we nave described
each in his berth, quite dead.
The chief engineer had been heard to express an

anthracite coal instead Of charcoal in confined room

"Haneins and wiuhg soss b. des,sy. - shsss&ssse
Some OF the disappointed dandies who recentlyrs-
turned from the pnsons Of Europe are pouring out
their private gres at fifty cents square, through the
columns of the Sun, upon the head Of Mr.. pelavan,
36 Maiden lane because he had the good fortune to
be admitted 10 court in London, while they had only
the honor TO be lodged in the watch house or black
hole. II is highly probable that all these attacks
upon Mr. Delavan through the Sun proceed from
the fellow who purchased one dayin London, pair
of went out TO kick up spree, got thrash
ing at st. Giles by couple Of shilling gallery girls
lost one of his whskers, and was lodged IN the watch
house for day and night in order TO be restored 70
his senses
These disappointed dandies are terribly annoyed at
the dignity, cemposure, and proprety which charac-
terized Mr. DIS visit Earope, and his opening here
in Maiden lane very elegant and curious assortment
of all species of hardware and cutlery which draw
the fashionable 10 buy and see. The fellows are
scrapng up fifty cents every now and then to buy
paragraph in the Sun for the qualification of their
spleen and malevoience Mr.. D., however, smiles at
their impotence. Descended from revolutionary sire
the late General Delavan, of Westchester-hc has
spark of the same compssure which marked his an
cosor in the days that tried mems souls" As these
fellows will have further occasion to be annoyed at
Mr.. DIS success, we should advise them to 90 and
commit suicide at once. 1t will save expense and
trouble hereafter If they want the weapons, they
be supplied in any quantity at Nr. DIS store, 36
Maiden lane. He has beautiful pistols-most sweet
cuttingrazors mounted dirks and most elegant
Bowie knives, that will settle their business for them
in short time. For beautiful cutlery in the ladies'
line scissors &c. there is no. superior store in the
city-cheap too as any one can get.
Will the travelled dandies who got into the watch
house in London, and now appear TO be so much an
noyed at Mr.. DIS visit to the King of England and
success here have the goodness to say whether they
prefer cutting their throats, or merely blowing their
heads of-not their brains for they have none-their
heads off?

PRESIDENT VAN BuRENs lNAvGURAL--On our
first page will be found President Van Burens o6scial
Inaugural Address II will be found not exactly so
precise and clear as the Original but this arises from
the circumstance that the Hon. b. F. Butler new the
chef de cuisine, gave il the language and grammar
while Mr.. Van Buren only furnished the ideas. Our
version is the most correct and the purest transcript
of the Presidenis mind We can beat Mr. Butler in
writing messages any day. Hereafter we learn that
Mr.. Butler is appointed the writer Of the Official

LocoFoco MEETING IN THE PARK.-By placards
and advertisements we learn that large meeting Of
the Locofocos is 10 be held in the Park today at
O'Clock, to take into consideration the present high
prices, and the propriety of making run upon the
banks for specie the first step towards the election.
Great exacersa,ion has been produced against this
meeting by the three other partes called the wings,
the democrats, and the natives.
The Locofocos are at present the lions Of the day
BY means of the -four riot they have fastened upon
themselves the attention of the public. This was
the way that Webb first made man of himself
first By getting up riot in Tamsiany Hail. then by
another against the Tappans and aboli,ionsts-then
by another the arssnalthen by another in the Park
ihea,re-besides a cut every now and then in Wall
street, or mahogany pisolling affair at Washington
For fear that riot should be the consequence Of
this meeting, the authorities have the military prepared
at different points of the city pounce upon them on
the first infraction of the public peace. The loco
focos will therefore have behave or they will have
fight, and if they get into fight, they may get bro
ken heads which is a little worse than a sentence in
the Court of Sessions account o. destroying
Harris -four.
We do not however apprehend much disturbance,
and TO hercn on the banks wepresume these saints
will have first TO got the paper money to make the
run WITH before they approach the banks.
In consequence of the state Of the times the loco
focos have suddenly become the lions of the day
the observed of all observers" The other parties
are looking upon them with great deal of jealousy
and alarm. Wedo not think there is much difference
between the leaders of any party, but the locsfocos
have slight advantage at present Leaders of par
ties generally cheats, charlaans and rogues and
do not that the locofocos are bit better than
their neighbors In their notions they have some
sense and plenty Of nonsense. As to fighting they
do not want more of it than they can do without
They are something like the valiant generals who
have been trying to catch he'Seminoles, but never
yet coud-hey prefer fighting with the tongue at
