MSTuE DEATH OF THE REV. TnoMAs ROBIN
SON. We mentioned on Monday, the melan-
choly death of the Rev. Thomas Robinson, of
Ammo Arundel county, which occurred on Sa-
turday. The Annapolis Star gives the follow
ing particulars of the sad occurrence:
ale was in the habit of cunning for ducks
OF the Severn River in small narrow batteau,
and was out as usual on that day. He was seen
from the house of Mr.. Duvall, which is located
near the shore, to have fired his gun, fall over
into the river, and to have restored himself TO
his boat again. lie was enabled to paddle a.
shore; but when he got there he was in q very
benumbed and help less condition; and was taken
by Mr.. Duvall to his house and placed by the
fire. Mr.. Duyal not knowing what to do for
him, he died no doubt from the want of proper
treatment After he was taken by Duvall to
his house he answered the question Of Duvall,
"If he knew hm?n He answered eyes" audi
bly, and distinctly, and never spoke again. Mr..
Robinson is not only loss TO his immediate
ncighbothood but TO his county. He was
wealthy and bestowed it literally upon the
poor and needy"
REPUBLICAN AND DAILY ARGUS. The pro-
prietors have produced an agreeable change in
the appearance of the Republican and Daily
Argus, by the adoption of new head and the
use of new type. They appear to be resolved
to "go.a-head," and we hope that they may
receive a liberal patronage to cheer them on
their way-tor we possess not the selfish feel
ing which would kill off our neighbors, that
they might leave the world for US to hustle in
The paper is conducted with spirit, and sus-
tains with ability, the principles the party to
which it is attached.

firned on Sunday night last, by the right rev.
BishopW hittingham, in Trinity Church, Fell's
Point, of which the rev. George A. Leakin is

sermoa delivered by the Bishop were very elo-
quent and impressive, and gave great satisiac-
ton to the large audience present.

buld, Il clerk of Jas Beck & Co. of New York.
