Waiting its natal hour

Nor what results unfoded dwell

The river opposite the thriving village OF
Carrollton, was yesterday the scene of lru
ly heart rending occurrence. The circum-
stances, as near as We could CLEAN them, are
rs follows: Mr.. George Logan, who but re-
Gently removed from South Carolina to this
State, and who, since his arrival here, has
been occupying one of Mr. Conrey's houses
in the upper part of this city, went up to
the Parish of st. Charles few days since,
on visit to his brother, DR.. Logan, who re-
sides some twelve miles above Carrollton, on
the opposite side of the river. After break
fast, yesterday, Mr.. Logan undertook to re.
turn to Carrollton in a skiff. The tiny ves-
sci was pretty well laden down with trunks
and other articles, and was freighted more
over by MIR. Logan, his three sons, two me-
gro men, one negro woman. and two negro
children. With many merry Jest the
youthful voyagers and their father pushed
out on the uncertain waters, while Dr.. Lo-
gan's lady, his daughter and Mrs. George
Logan were to keep pace with them on the
land in barouche, and when they arrived
opposite Carrollton, they were to be ferred
across the river for the purpose of visiting
this city with their friends. On and on in
safety, the skif carecred, till she came in
front Of Carrollton. There, unfortunately,
she ran foul of a wood raft, overset, and in
q moment of time the lives of all were in
jeopardy. None of the party could swim.
Mr.. Logan was drihed under the raft; his
three sons, whirling away in the eddies, sank;
and the five servants uttering cries of dis
tress, where whelmed amid the bubbling
waters. Help soon came from the shore.
Mr.. Logan, more than half drowned, was
picked up after passing completely under
meath the raft, and one son was saved by a
sturdy boatman, who seized him by the hair
Of the head as he was sinking for the last
time. These two-the father and one son
were all that were saved of the nine, who
but few moments before, were on board of
that boat, and so certain Of many years of
coming life. So true it is that ain the
midst of life we are in death" When we
visited Carrollton, some hours after the oc-
currence, We learned that Mr.. Logan had
joined his female friends on the other side
of the river, and that all were nearly render
ed frantic by the terrible catastrophe which
had overtaken them. Deeply indeed do we
sympatize with them in their distress.-N
