CAPTAIN STOCKTON.

twill, we are certain, be gratifying to the
numerous friends of this distinguished gentle
man. to learn that he is gradually recovcrir g
from the shock and injuries received on board
the Princeton on The 2Sth uluno II gives us
much pleasure TO state the fact, that nearly all
the immediate relatives Of those who were the
victims TO the fatal calamity Of that day, have
in the spirit of the greatest kindness commu-
nicated or expressed to Captain Stockton the
deep sympathy which they feel for him and
have also, in the most emphatic manner, sc-
quilted him of all censure. We speak from
personal knowledge, when we say. that no per
son whomsoever, sorrows more deeply for the
departed, or sympathlzes more sincerely with
the bereayed andlafilicted, than does the galanl,
the generous and kind-hesrted Stockton.
