) LATEST FROM ENGLAND.

By the ship Switzerland" at New York from
London, we have dates to December 10. The
most important item Of news is statement that
the Duke of Bordeaux had raised the White flag
over his house in Belgrave Square, London-that
deputations had proceeded to him from France,
recognising him as the future Henry Y. The
French Government had become uneasy at these
movements, and at the ntrigues of what is called
the "party Of the Pretender" generally The
English papers denounce the intentions Of the
Duke, and it was thought the British Government
would prevent, as far as possible, any further de-
monstrations in favor of the old Bourbops The
French people will not have them, and they are
no favorites with the mass of the English
The agitations of the Anti-Corn Law League
continue to be very violent At large meeting
in Liverpool the sum of $4,000 was subscribed
toward the 100000 before the meeting broke
up. There is considerable excitement in the ag-
rcultural districts, caused by frequent incendiary
fires. aE

MORE Loss FROM SNAGs.-The ST Louis Re-
publican states that the Meridian from thai port to
N. Orleans, Capt. O. Daniels, about three o'clock
on the 9th ut., struck snag at the foot OF Tow
er Island, and sunk in about ten feet water the
water being up to the cabin floor on one side,
and up to the name on the wheel house on the
other She lies athwart the channel. 1t is stat
ed in letter from her clerk, that her books part
Of her furniture, and portion of her cargo, will
be saved. With the exception of some buffalo
robes and furs, which were saved without injury,
SO much as is saved will be in damaged condi-
ton. The boat will be a total loss She left
st. Louis with cargo of 1000 barrels and kegs
of lard, 600 barrels pork, 400 barrels -four, lao
bales buffalo robes, and lis head Of cattle, to-
gether with smaller lots, making IN all "a pretty
heavy freight. IA head of cattle and the buff
falo robes were saved. The balance is thought
to be total loss. The Leander, which left for
the mouth of the Ohio, struck some obstruction
in the river, and sunk to the hurricane deck.
Had 1000 barrels of provisions on board-all
lost and no insurance. This is a sad destruction
property.

The Whig standard. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1843-1844, 1844-01-15

The Philadelphia Sentinel relates the particu-
lars of a melancholy suicide which took place in
that city on Tuesday. A respectable young
man named William. jackson paid visit on
Monday evening to young lady to whom he
was betrothed, and re urned home at "a late hour,
as was his usual custom. At about o'clock on
Tuesday morning, the family were startled by
the report OF pistol-with which he had shot
himself: He expired in few minutes. The
Sentinel adds slfss .g. .jS
Between the time that he returned home on
Monday evening and his decease, he wrote a
long and afectionate letter to his mother, and
also will, in which he bequeathed one half Of
his property to his mother and the other half to
the young lady to whom he was engaged to be
married. On the evening preceding his decease
he presented to the young lady in question fine
gold finger ring containing lock of his hair.
The suicide is as strange as it is melancholy
no one can form correct opinion of what in
duced him TO commit the deed--there was no
thing, so far as We have ascertained, to prevent
the intended union between him and the object
Of his affections; the relatives on all sides were
agreed, and yet right on the eve of consumma-
ting the marriage VOW, he fell by his own hand.
