lInrnnnto ,rn letO IA n.

WHEREAS, We have heard with the
deepest sorrow Of the death Of Patriarch
HUGH H. CARR, one ofthe oldest mem
bers of this Encampment, as we'll as most
valued friends Of days agone.-In his
death this Encampment has lost one of its
brightest ornaments, the Fraternity an un-
ostentatious and devoted Odd Fellow, for
he ever eyinced steady attachment to
those principles Of SCOTLAND fraternal good
will which distinguish the character ofthe
true Patriarch. DESTROYS that the re-
membrance Of his many virtues may not
perish with US poor mortals, who are also
tending 10 "that bourne whence no trav.
eller returneth," we inscribe upon our re-

good name.
RESOLVED, That with The family OF the

partnership forever Of one whom we loved
as friend and brother.
RESOLVED, That in the death of pa,ri-
arch CARR, our Order, society at large,

sOlicitude and manly fdelily-and dying

al Wcddcd Maid.

Our readers will recollect the case Of
young lady Of this city, mentioned in the
Standard day or Two since, who went era
zy because her lover deserted her for apoth.
er lady. Rumor has it now that the faith.
less swain has hard work TO make his mar
riuse stick. The story is substantially as
follows:
At Clifton Springs, shor, time since, a
gay party was assembled, among them Miss
NJ, Of Buffalo, and Frank N, Of Syracuse.
In the course of the evening, gaiety began to
flag, and some one proposed a marriage
Up springs the gay Miss NJ, and expressed
willingness to be the bride. She was fol-
lowed by Frank N, who jOyfully consented
to be the grosm. A young gentleman pres
en,, who sometimes deals in jewelry, and is
well known in Syracuse circles, performed
the ceremony, and the merry couple made
tho usual responses. After the ceremony
was over, the groom gave his bride to under.
stand that he considered it binding. She
demurred and started for her home at Buffa.
10, the bailled bridegroom following her, and
pressing his claim at the house Of her father
he was sent abou, his business, with some
striking specimens Of patenal indignation
from the lady's father. Matters at present
are in stai,t qto, and The lovely damsel re.
mains "wedded maid" The gentleman
claims her as his lawful wife, and her rela.
,ives deny the claim,-syaeuse Standard.

Sailing of the Expedition from varna.

No accident happened during the EN-,
barkation of The expedition for the Cri.
mea, and on the Sd the greater part Of
the fleet had weighed anchor. Seyas,o.
pol was generally supposed to be the
destined point of attack. The whole
army was in the highest spirits. The
9th or Sth is said to be the day on which
tho operations are actuallyto commence.
A letter from Constantinoplo of the
3lst August says: Gail further coniec.
lures as to the course Of events at Sc.
vastopol must be- idle and useless. We
know too little about the enemy TO be
able to say whether the landing will be
opposed-whether the troops stationed
about the country will be left where
they were or concentrated behind the
entertainments which have been the
work of the last two years. The posi.
tive statement brought by the Retribu.
ton that large army was on the march
to the Crimea seems to denote that op.
erations on large scale are intended
by the Russians, and that they will en-.
deavor to raise the siege. If this be
tho case, and tho place can hold out for
any length Of lime, it is probable that
some reinforcemenls may be required,
and that more cavalry will be wanted
than it has been thought necessary to
transport for the purpose of The siege.
However it will Of course DO easy for
large bodies of French cavalry to DO
brought in second voyage; and even
though the Russian forces on the march
be not exaggerated, the difficulties Of
the country and tho DEFICIENCIES of The
Rassian solliery will delay its arrival
until several weeks have passed away.
The want Of water may perhaps be
felt by the allied troops, as no doubt the
enemy will use every cnlcavor to cut
of all supplies. The Tchamcha, d riv.
cr Of some size, north of Seyastopol,
may afford what is wanted, but i, is said
that it may DO damned near the source,
aud the bed turned into a marsh. Tho

one of the first labors Of the attacking
army. AT the beginning of the sum
mer, when this expedition was first adj
yiscd, too little attention was paid to
this subject, but lately i, has occusioned
no little anxiety, and measures have no
doubt been taken for precluding the
danger of short supply. The naval

gagged elsewhere, and the admirals were
forced to remain at Ballschik for easier

TENDER, speaking of the recent victory
of Schamyl, makes the following re-
marks =
Oour columns this morning contain
the most satisfactory intelligence whicll
has yet been received from the seat CT

imbecility which have hitherto char
aclerized the proceedings of tho Turk

turn to the vigorous inroad Of Schamyl
and his Ci,cassian followers into tho We.
ry heart of Georgia, and 10 calculate
the amount of injury which it has infict-
ed on the common enemy. In great
