to state that DR.. Lingard the celebrated histo-
rian of England, died at his residence, Hornby, a
few minutes before IL o'clock on Thursday

Col. FITz HENRY WARRES.--It ever gives us
pleasure to bear testimony to the worth of
faithful public servant. This gentleman, who
is Second Assistant Postmaster General, has,
since his instalment in Office, exhibited an ef-
hciency in the discharge Of his arduous duties
which is not only gratifying to his political
friends, but is also highly appreciated by the
opponents of the present Administration. His
business tact, strict application, and kind de-
pertinent towards those who have business
with him, have rendered him one Of the most
popular functionaries in any Of the depart
ments, and justly made him good example for
many who occupy comparatively higher sta
tons in the Government.

DEATH BY BRANDY.-Andrew Sald four

by John Stoll, in New York, was the other day
induced by some man to drink a tumbler of
brandy, on the promise Of being paid sum of

daily from drinking it in half gill doses.
