wreck Of the British ship supposed to |
be the T" Lady Evelyn" and a fearful
sacrifice Of life. She was a fine yes
sci, recently built, 748 tons burden,
commanded by Captain M'Lellan, and
was the property Of Messrs.. Herrings,
Of Liverpool, On her last voyage from
England she was bound to Port Philip,
and on her arrival there she was taken
up for run to Calcutta and China.
She was then chartered for the con-
veyance Of 250 Chinese emigrants to
San Francisco, and departed in every
apparent safety with her living freight.
The catastrophe is reported TO have
occurred on the night Of the goth Ju-
", on one Of the cluster Of islands
known as Typingson, in The Eastern
or Chinese Sea, situated some fourteen
miles west Of Loo Choo. She quickly
went to pieces, and we regret 70 add
that out Of 29O souls who were on
board, including the crew, only six.
European sailors and twenty China
men were saved. The adyices fur-
nished no further intelligence. The
ship was insured ~ Z Times.

A Young HerO.

In She MaulsOn I wisconsin,
"Daily Argus" December l.. we
find the following account Of the
martyrdom Of an American boy-a
youth Of whom our nation m1y be
proud-who died because he would
not tell a lie. !
HEROES AND MARTYRs.--Our read
ers will probably all recollect the story
ofthe Norwegian boy at Chicago, who
was drowned by some other boys be-
cause he refused to assist them in
robbing an orchard. Some Of the pa
pers at Chicago, now raise doubt as
to the maftyrdom Of the boy, and at
tempt to account for his death in some
other way than that first suggested.
1t seems to such that heroisrn, Of the
kind imputed to the boy, does not ex-
ist in the world at the present time.
Such editors underrate humanity

State, a little over a year ago, the
facts Of which were established by
judicial investigation, and we're rela-

A beautiful fair-haired blue-eyed
boy about nine years Of age was taken

farmer Of Marquette, a professor Of
religion and member Of the Baptist

boy discovered criminal conduct on
the part Of his new mother, which he
mentioned to the little girl, and it
thereby came to the ears of the wo.
man /; she indignantly denied the
story to the satisfaction of her hus-
band, and insisted that the boy should
be whipped until he confessed the
Ifalsehood. The msn--poor,,o weak

it from pretty good authority, we are

and reached the capitol few minutes before
o'clock
There, attended by the Ex.President and
others, the President entered the Senate Cham
berthe Senate having been previously orga
nised-and after remaining little while in tho
chair assigned him at the foot OF the desk OF tho
President of the Senate, he proceeded. with
his associates and the Senators, TO the front por

Supreme Court, and his Associates; the old
Cabinet and the New Senators and Reprcsen-

solemn oath to support the Constitution. Tho
oath was administered by the venerable Chief
Justice TANEY. The President having taken
the oath, then delivered his Inaugural Address,

Every word Of it was heard by almost every

One feature of the parade that attracted
