Yesterday there was very large audience as.
seabled at the Union Prayer Meeting ii Jayhs's
Hall, TO which unusual interest was impaired ~
the reference to a late melancholy event the sud-
den death Of the Rev. Dudley A. Tying. This
young Clergyman had participated largely into the
meetings at this Hall during the whole OF the re-
vivai. flis liberal, catholic spirit caused him IT,
fraternize with Christians Of all other sects with
when he constantly mingled, interchanging good
ofases with comprehensiveness Of religious fee'-
inc which endeared him to all. In private life he
was the model of everything good, and in the pull
pin he was eloquent and fearless. A year or two
apo he was pastor of the Church Of The Epi-
phany, and on one occasion preached powerful
soff.ion denoancing the snfnlnesso of slavehoiding
declaring that those who, ihaiigh not actually
siavelislders themselves, yet participated in the
profits Of that siupendous iniquity, were equally
guilty before God and man. The doctrine fell up
on the cotton stuffed ears of his polite congrega
tion like a thnnder-cIap. They were mostly deal
srs in the cotton and sugar line, and had not been
accustomed to such rude disturbance of their fa-
vorite wictedness. They demonstrated with thu
preaciisr accusing him of preaching pelftcal SER
mons, and warned him to desist. But the
preacher had conscience. and refused, The
pewholdsrs pat the question t5vote; and the de-
lnand to cruelty him PREVAILED He was turned

Ne was frequentiyssen preaching and praying, to The
comfort and ratification of thousands. On Tues
day Of last week. while standing near an agri nj
tnral machine, which was then in op ration, his
tight hand became entangied in the machine, and
was drawn on until his whole arm nearly 10 the
shoulder was crushed to jelly. On Saturday, it
was found necessary 10 amputate at the shoulder,
hut in vain. He fingered until the following
Monday, when death closed his early but truly
evangelical career. He was SO well known here,
and SO universally beloved that his death created
aprofound sensation throughout the community
Yesterday, the sad event was prominently refer
red to in the prayer-meeting at the Hall. Many
,Incidents Of the death-scene were described.-i
Though confident, until within an hour Ut his
death, that he would recover, believing that his
afilistion was-a new warning for him to be more
dillisent in his calling, yet when his family assnr-
ed him that this confidence was mistaken, ii
which assurance his physician coincided, the sud-
den intelligence occasionpd him no Consideration
His reply was; "lt is al. well Gods will be
DONE" lie called his family around him, bidding

by the hand, he exorted him to continue to stand
up for Jesus" Saon after this. deirium succecd-
ed, bu. the ruling passion of his purified spirit
developed itself in Ills almost incoherent express.
sions He fanced himself preaching in the Hall
and exclai,ned =" Let those people at the door

thus this excellent m passed from works 10 re
wards.
The State Treasurer has sent in to the Legisla-
ture list Of public defaulters, and such caa-
lngue of blackness has nowhere been seen since
the days Of General Jackson's Administratirn.-l
The cheats and swindlers turn up in every quarter
of the Stats where there was public money to be
handled. Twenty-one OF these worthless were em-
pIoyed as collectors and superintendenls on lhs
canals and railroads of which the State has now
happily Invested itself. The list comprises 394
names, and the amount pocketed by these patriots
is 100000! Among them are prolhonotarles
marsha!s, sherifs, collectors, &c.
You ma, hold up your hands in establishment
at MIR. English's treachery to Kansas, but there
are parties here who knew all The time that he
was not to be trusted; and that this vote aoans,
Lecompion was sham. We know his anieced-
EMS, and areAihessfoss as much sufpaisee as
others seem TO be. ! will write you more fully
hereafter on this rnattur, if sucl, a creature b.
worth writing about But English does 90, stand
alone in his treason. Others are affiliated with
him. They all have itching palms, and each one
his price. They are better known here than they
suspect. But the country at large now knows
English we'll enough to crush him out d. cent
men at Washington should spurn the mercenary
impostor from their presence. He should be BAN
ishsd from all civilized society, and the back of
every honest man be turned upon him. 1t is moi
true that that they can conquer Kansas by this
swindle, Your correspondent writes
from Washington that Bnchanaa applied to Gov
Wise for advice and encouragement in his great
strait, and he writes truly. But wise gave him
no encouragement, though he did tell hin to be
honest and just. Mr. Wise holds himself aloof
from Buchanan. feeling himself to be ADORE him
and knowing that Buchanan will gain something
by being countenanced by Wise, bu, he could gain
nothing by being countepanced by Buchanan.-l
The end Of this matter will show that Niss lie |
correct.
