The sudden and affecting death of CHARLES THORN.
TON CUNNINGHAM, esq, lieutenant-g governor of s..
Chrstophers and the Leeward Islands, is annpunced IN
the West India papers. 1t appears that this gentleman
had driven in from the country Ba sselun seat
of government, apparently vigorous health and cheerful
spirits open the houses of legislature. After ansactg
some business with hi. private secretary and despachu
invite officers in French ship -oi-war lust
come into port, to luncheon government house he rode
down TO the mail office meet his letters, and box
tanning picture of much beloved sister recently de-
ceased in England He had stated more than one per-
that his desire possess the picture not
unnxed with fear the effect the sight of might pro
duce Upon him. So strongly had this apprehension
Ell itself upon his mind that, the arrival of the box
government house, he sent servant in quest of friend
who might be with him when the box opened. Having
failed In finding him, he proceeded to open the box. His
butler, who present reports that he looked cou
tenance earnestly, turned pale, whispered words t
himself, walked hastily up his room, heard al
most instantly 10 fall as he entered it, and his fol-
lowing stairs, found him stretched the floor corpse
The St Christopher Gazette, well many other pub
lie and private communications, bear the strongest
mony to the ability, vigor, and high moral character OF this
gentleman and the tenderness and municence with which,
at all tmes and especially under heavy visitation
OF island lever he had mnisered TO the wants and sor
rows OF the population The houses of assembly met
Immediately after his DEATH and passed unanimous vote
for funeral the public expense testify the
respect for his official rank and the high esteem in which
he wins held by all classes of the community On the next
day he followed to the grave by all the public author
ties, the members of the two houses the distinguish
ed persons III the colony, and by thousands OF grae
and mourning to whose welfare he had Target
contributed The late lieutenant governor the G

of the government But if il were not so, why publish
the fact to Mexico Why hold out to that infatuated
government controlling Involvement to 'protract
the war; Why thus seek make all our past victories
barren Why thus make il needful that yet more blood
be shed! The truth must be told The ''lntelligencer"
Is striying-painly strving-to create the dlscour-
agemen and disaster which it porrays The whole ten
dency of its statements keep back the patriotic val
or which would rush to the aid of army till It's noble
work of permanent and honorable peace accomplished
Such efforts cannot prevail The country scorns the
factious and traorous spirit which dictates them But
they could prevail they would do deed of infamy UNI
paraeled in all the atrocities OF party spirit They
would leave our conquerng and glorious army to dwin-
die away unsupported the heart of the country has
power to exor any just terms OF peace from enemy
They would put far away the day of peace; and when
peace came il would at last (f such spirit the
"lntegencer" has shown to pervade the country
with all the burdens and loss and crushing gnomny Of
victorious aures turned to ashes and war; at first
passingly glorious, closed in the sad and shameful terms
of Mexican, not American dictation!
Who, then, are the advocates of protracted war?
Are they to be found in an Administration which has
strained every of its energies to push the on
through such series of triumphs 10 just and speedy
concuson' Or if they are to be found at ALL are they
not rather be found among those who, like the Fede
raj organ, for the purposes Of faction seek every oppor
tunity to cripple our government weaken army, and
dishearten our people9
