The terrible and sudden casualty by which
this gentleman was hurried To a watery grave,
is elsewhere detailed IL our columns this
morning. While We pause to shed a sincere
tear over the memory of one who was known
and loved by thousands of disinterested per-
sons in Tennessee, aud who had attracted
around him choice circle VI attached friends
at the home of his adoption, We willingly
pass on To render q just tribute 10 his manly
virtues, his high aims, and his blsneess and
pure life. Col. CRARY was one of those self
reliant men, who had forced his way, IN the
face of fortunes frowps, 10 al honorable POI
sltion among the intellectual men Of The coan-
Try, and TO rank in his profession which
promised 10 open to him in the future its
highest distinctions. As business mao he
was strictly attentive, diligent, prompt, and
Of blsIneless Integrity, and bad he lived 10
reap The fruits OF his preparedness for pro-
iessioRal practice, won by hard and labOrious
toll AID study, he would have reached the
summit OF legal etninence.
Ia social lie, we have known few men who
were uniformly more agreeable, modest and
amiabie. With q smile aud 4 cordial welcome
ever for his friends, he yet possessed the hrm.
Ness and determination necessary 10 over
come the obstacles which he might lave to
sHrnonnt.

A Contrast.

The conduct Of the city council of New
York, which is largely American in politics,
in their treatment of Mr.. Buchanan, con-
trasts strikingly with that Of Philadelphia,
which numbers majority of Pierce Demo
Gratis. The former gave him a splendid re-
ception on his return from Europe, and
offered him the freedom of the city. Citi-
zens Of all parties We'd in the respect shown
to the distinguished ex-Minister The lat
ter even refused him public hall in which
to receive his friends
This disgraceful breach of courtesy indi-
Gates the bitterness of the strife now raging
between the rival aspirants for the Cincin-
natl nomination. We trust it may rage
till they have consumed each other. The
appliances with which Locofocoism has de-
bauched the public sense, and humbugged
the country, threaten to prove its own
ruin. A retribution thus achieved would
be appropriate as deserved.

THREE MEN DROwNED AT HELENA.--A gentleman
who came up on the Ingomar informs US that on
Saturday last, the steamer Robert j. Ward in IeaY
ing Helena, ran upon sail boat, which upset.
and three men were drowned. Our informant did
not know the names Of the party, but we have
since learned that it consisted of Col. J. T. Crazy,
Mr.. Carrel, mail boy named Brown. NJ Clerbone,
Mr.. Humphreys, Sheriff Of Tunica county, Mis-, and
Mr.. Norman. The three first were drowned, and
the others were saved, with difficulty The sad

1t is said that whiskey and other liquors
are sold by the glass at more places than
one in this city We do not see that drum
kenness has diminished any under the pres
ent law. There is a screw loose some
where Cedar Valley Times.
II il has not diminished then it is the fault
of the temperance men ofyour town. Were
it not that that law is on the statute books,
there would be no need Of qualifying your
remark with the phrase "it is said" as the
fact would be apparent and perhaps too
common to require even the mention.

A HUGE HoGsHEAD.-An enterprising
cooper undertook yesterday 10 construct an
immense hogshead on the ice, opposite the
foot of Spruce street. When finished. it
will be as much larger THAI a common hogs.
head as the latter is larger than a small
keg. IL might be used as satisfactory de-
monstration of the theory OF certain Ger
man that the thing was made greater than
the maker. He says,"I PEGS ter cooper,

The Montgomery (Ala.) Journal says
that u man was recently detected, in that
place, in an attempt to sell white boy Tor
slave, By some means he induced the
boy, who is about fifteen years OF age, and
an orphan, to accompany him to Montgom-
cry, where he offered him for sale. The
youth contcnded that he was white, and
was whipped in consequence. His COM
plants, however, excited the attention OF
several persons; the man was arrested, and
in default of bonds, lodged in Jail. The al
fair created much Indignation among the
citizens of Montgomery, and the villain WILL
it is to be hoped, be duly punished.
We do not perceive the necessity which
existed for making SO much fuss about the
matter The boy was poor, and some OF the
Administration journals South are arguing
that color makes no difference, but that it is
better for the lower order OF poor white Peo-
pie to be slaves than ireemen. That, as
we understand it, is the position the Rich
mond Enquirer, and papers of similar pro-
clyties. The extract also suggests another
interesting consideration, that even row
the fact of being white is no conclusive, and
is scarcely more than prima tdcte, evidence
of person being free. The question o
freedom or slavery has to be judiclally IN
vestgated, irrespective of color.

NAVIGATION AND THE lcE.-The Mn
nesotian, OF the Goth ult. says "the snow Is
fast disappearing from our strcels, and beta
on the first boat" are varying from the 10Th
to the 18th OF April"
From present appearances we hardly ex-
pect TO see boat By that time ourselves,
and we guess We'll have sight OF one be-
fore the Mnnesotians do. To be sure, the
ice has broken up at st, Louis, and for a
short distance above, and we expect the
same occurrence to take place here, but
how soon, is mixed up with good many
doubts. We share with others considerable
curiosity to see the ice go out, and as at this
point it generally moves with decorous slow
ness, the inclinalions of all will doubtless
be gratiied. We have no anxiety about
the bridge, but we will certainly feel better
when the present heavy ice shall have
moved off and left it uninjurcd.
