and stopping occasionally at pine Trees, from
whence they were seen to tear off some bark.
The pursuit was continued by the gentlemen,
firing upon the younger animals until they were
killed, aud when examined il was found that The
bark icas inserted in their rounds by their careful

coast and gone probably TO The Bahamas.

since the massacre, have been making attempts to

DEATH OF CAPT. CLEAVEIAND

We are panied to he under the necessity of an
the death of Capt. JOSIAH CLEAvELAND
The venerable Patriot of the Revolution whose
presence in our city, aud whose sickness here, we
have heretofore taken occasion 10 mention. He
was removed from the CONNER cal Coffee House.
in this city, where every possible attention had
been paid him that the Kindness of MIR. Whitney
could bestow, 10 Charlestown, for the benefit Of
the air. lie died yesterday morning, at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Samuel c. Hunt, in Charlesown,
where lie had been kindly received and entertain
ed since his arrival in that town.
Capt Cleaveand was born in Canterbury, CT,
Dec. Sd, 1853. He volunteered his services in
the Army OF Freedom, Immediately after hearing
of the fight oil Lexington, and entered that Army
AT Cambridge. lie was engaged as soldier in
the battle of Bunker HILL aud received an Ensign's
commission soon after. lie served through The
whole war-was in nearly all the prominent &c
lious-and closed his military career al Yorktown,
al the capture of CORVALLIS. lie was present
when the Corner Stone Of the Bunker Hill Monu-
mcni was laid, June II, 1925, and was recognized
by La FAYETTE--who,. on perceiving him, ex-
claimed" My God there is Capt. Ceayeand -
lie was Il man OF more than ordinary intelligence,
strictly honorable in all his dealings, and uniform
ly correct in his department. never having con
lracted the once fashionable vices of dram. drink
ing and profanity. lie was universally esteemed.
and II is not known that he ever had an enemy.-
Above all, he was CHRIsTIAN-and gave con-
elusive evidence, 10 n friend who attended him in
his last moments that he was prepared TO meet
his Judge.
This venerable old relict of the Revolution tray
elled journey of nearly 500 miles, IA the dim
twilight of his WORKOUT life, as pilgrim to The
shrine OF his early idolary. How remarkable it
isis not the arrangement of Holy Providence
clearly observable in it?-lhat this old man of
ninety years should have come so long u distance,
10 lay down his life in sight of the very spot which
had been the scene OF It's most patriotic act 1t is
not wonderful, that he should have walked up Just
enough of the ardor and enthusiasm of his youth,
TO bear him 10 that holy spot upon which his young
and valiant heart had first leaped forh in The
cause of his country? Blessed, blessed death -
Who would have desired thar he should have
lived one hour longer? How could his life have
been paid out, a more happy or holy tribute 10
that glorious cause of patriotism, which had
wound its tendrlls inseparaby about his youthful
heart? Peace, peace 10 the remains of the depar-
ted Patriot May his spirit be received into the
hands of that Almighty Being who has lent him
SO long to be an honor aud ornament to our coun-

ARRIVAL OF THE HlBERNlA.
THREE DAYS LATER.


Parliament. The House of Commons had been
occupied principally in very animated debate on
the Irish Arms Bill. The ministry had made no
development of their policy in relation to Irish
Affairs.
In Ireland there had been no further repeal
movements since the departure ofthe Great Wes-
tern.
Mr.. O'Cornel declared, at the great meetngat
Ennis, that The Government were more disposed
TO conciliale than coerce, and that if they were
prepared 10 sever the Church from the State in
Ireland, he would meet them in "excelent hui
mour." lie stated that Peel and the conciIiatory
party had prevailed In London, however, the
belief it is stated is quite the other way, aud that
the Duke of Wellington's recipe for quetng the
Irish by force had found the greatest number of
supporters in the Cabinet, leaving Peel aud the
moderate party in minority. The language used
by Lord Stanley and Sir James Graham, during
Fridays debate, in conradistinction 10 that of Sir
Robert Peel is calculated to strengthen the latter
impression. A little time, however, will decide
the question. The rent is expected on the week
ending the 24th ut 10 reach the enormous sum of
G3000.
The Derry Standard says the Government are
watching for materials for prosecuting Mr.. O'Con-
nell for high treason. The Herald, the only min
lserlal organ among the morning papers of Lon
don, calls this statement fudge"
