Distressing Case Of Drowning. An inquest
was held yesterday morning by James Hooper,
ESQ, Coroner, over the body of u young female
named Rebecca Adelne Miller, who came to
her death under the following circumstances:
She was dress-maker, and had gone from the
residence of her father at the corner of Paca-
st. and Paca alley, on Monday afternoon, to
carry home a dress on Federal Hi!l after de-
liverlng which, she walked down to the old
Fish House Wharf on the South side of the
Basin, to see the shipping, and while there, it
is supposed, she became gddy and fell over
board. Her body, after being in the water but
a short time, was recovered, and by proper
treatment partially resusctated. In this state
she was conveyed to the residence of her faith
err, where she died about o'clock IN the even
ing; the hurried removal no doubt accelerat-
ing her death. She was aged about II years,
and was much respected by all who knew her
The jury returned 4 verdict in accordance with
the facts.
Melancholy Death. A young man named
Thomas Lee, about 20 years of age, who, " it'll
Younger brother, had been left in charge of
his fathers house, No. l05 Pearl street, during
the absence of the family on a visit to the
country, died very suddenly on Monday night
or Tuesday morning. 1t appears that he was
indsposed on Thursday, but so slightly, that
he raId little attention to 1T, and on MONDAY
morning proceeded to the store in Pratt street,
where he was employed as clerk, and attended
to business until night, when he went home,
and after supper, retired to bed. ln the morn

Handsome Railroad Car. We notice that
new and beautiful car has Just been placed up
on the Baltimore and Washington railroad. 1t
is finished i'll the most elegant style, with cush-
ions and easy seats and will doubtless be per-
feet luxury to travellers, especially the female
portion. 1t is entirely Of Baltimore manufac-
ture, and reflects the highest credit on the me-
clianlcal taste and ingenuity of the industrious
workmen in the employ Of the company at
Mount Clare Depot.

Concert in Independent Square. Tonight
the Independent Greys' Band will give con-
cert in Independent Square, in front of the en-
CINE house, and we doubt not there will be a
full turn out of the ladies and gentlemen of
that section of the city.
Maroon Escape from Dro,rning. A young
man, named George Lusk, aged about II
years. while standing on the wharf at Good
WINS ship yard, yesterday afternoon, about

The Da1phin Guards. This beautiful and
excelently disciplined company, paraded
through our principal streets yesterday after

ing appearance. They gave US a specimen off
their ability in drilling, in Monument Square,
which reflected great credit on both officers
