Afcr pro,rac;ed illness, most patiently borne,
bringing out TOO In strong relief, the lovely traits
OF her character, this young and interesting per.
son has gone down 10 that grave, on the brink Of
which she hls been so long towering. With her,
zine intellect richly cultivated pure, warm

love Of Na,ur, aud Of Natures Gud deeply
religious feeling, no, utering itself in words or
opcn professions, bu, pcrvudng and elevaling
every thought and action, have passed away from
the Garth.
In one of her latest compositions were these
striking wor'l., most expressive Of the prevailing
tone Of her,h0ugh,s "When we touch aowct.
!, Is as IL. we touched the hand If God"
"Bui all this promise iair haiti, sought the grave"

Safe from temptation. saie from sin's pollution.

Hers was one OF those lrillian, in,ellec,s and

These instructions were notified to Mr..
Champion, who was at the same time informed.
that anxious as England was for recruits, she
was still more anxious that there should be no
violation of the municipal Law of the United
States. An agency was accordingly opened.
and upon complaint being made, Mr.. Crsmp-
ton desired that it might be made public that
the British Government did not recruit soldiers
IN the United States. and he made known his
instructions to Mr.. Msrcy. who expressed has

cable nature had since taken place between

With the conduct of Mr. Champion he said

Death of A Boy by Drinking Brandy.
From the New York Tribune, 18th.

|. Coroner Perry was yesterday called to the
house ST Baxter street, to hold an inquest
on the body Of Michael Mehan. a lad eight
years and SIX months. old, who died at
o'clock the morning previous. The evidence
of Bridget Mehan, mother of the deceased,
went to show that her son left the house about
3 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon to play
with some other boys. Not long afterwards
he was found lying at the foot of the stairs in
a state of insensibility, and apparently grossly
intoxicated His elder brother was the first
to discover him, but no one could or would
tell how the boy eame where found. He was
taken up stairs and put to bed, and when the
mother came in she sent for Or. Harren, of
No. 163 Bayard street. He found the patient
insensible and breathing heavily a greenish
looking fluid was forced from his nostrils at
every breath, and he smelt strong of rum
An emetic was administered, but without ap-
parent effect; and the poor boy fingered till
two o'clock in the morning, when he died
having never been restored to consciousness.
+ The Coroner used every exertion TO ascertain
who sold or administered the fatal draught of
rum to the deceased, but there was an evident
desire on the part of the deceased's relatives
to keep back evidence which might throw
light on the matter and dcvelope the truth
Consequently no testimony of positive char
acter could be produced No one could tell
who brought the deceased to his parents door
and left hin, and, in fact, the whole matter,
SO far as obtaining the liquor and the amount
drank by the deceased are concerned, is wrap
ped in mystery. Proof was offered showing
that the deceased had not only been intoxica-
ted before. but that he chewed tobacco freely
habits not often combined in one so young.
The Coroner. finding it impossible to obtain
more explicit evidence, vas obliged to close
the case. The Jury seemed satisfied that
some one was culpable in giving deceased the
liquor which caused his death, and they seemed
equally satisfied that the parties possessed Of
such information would keep it TO themselves.
The Jury, after ohor~ delTberation. rem
dered verdict that the deceased came to his
death by an overdose of liquor. administered
by some person or persons tc them unknown

ARRIVAL OF THE ATLANTIC.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-The steamship At
lantic, from Liverpool, with dates to the 9th
inst, arrived off Sandy Hook last night at 10
O'Clock, and reached her berth at 9 o'clock
this morning. She experienced strong west
erly gales for ten days in succession, and was
for three days in large fields of ice. She
brings no news of the missing steamship Pa
ci6c. On the. 10th inst, the Atlantic passed
the America, from Halifax for Liverpool, in
lat. 81, long. L.
The European intelligence shows that all
goes favorably in the direction of peace be-
tween Russia and the Allies. The protocol
for the preliminary Congress at Paris has
been signed, and it is reported that the EN-
perors of Russia and Austria will visit Paris
during the Conferences.
An armistice from land operations only
will probably be agreed upon till the 31st of
March
Nothing of interest comes from the Crimca
The last of the docks at SeVastopol has been
destroyed.
The real interest OF the news By the Allan
TIC is in relation to the prevailing excitement
in England concerning American affairs
1t has been reported on the Liverpool
Change that Mr. Buchanan has demanded his
passports. and the absence of himself and
is attributed to the personal misunderstanding
between the Earl of Clarendon and himself.
BY our latest despatch from London we
have no particulars of the reported misunder-
standing, as the English papers maintain
complete silence on the subject
The Earl of Clarendon is, however, report
ed to have spoken in the most imperious man
ner TO Mr.. Buchanan, which the latter
promptly checked by closing the interview.
1t is stated that the DERBY party intends TO
bring forward motion in Parliament, on the
subject of the omission of all alusien 10 Amer
lea in the Queens speech
1t is also reported that France aud Eng
land have jointly sent ENJOYS to Brazil, TO
enlist that country against the interests of the
United States IN Central America.
In the meantime, the general tone of the
English Press is threatening and presumptu-
Gus towards the United States. The purely
commercial presses from exception. and
the Chambers of Commerce of Manchester
and Liverpool protest against any interruption
of the anaicable relations with the United
States.
The funds have been depressed BY the
threatening aspect of affairs.
