nv chid.n Such being the case, you see it il
quite effort for me TO write. but the terrible Hos

Judge has completely routed my present attack OF
" spring fever,n and determined me to seize upon
the "grey goose quill u in his defence, he being
quite too nonchalant and dignifed to take mp the
cudgels for himself. Now, Crescent, was present
that night at that fair and can tell You that, in
the first place, the Judge received letter and
Ulysses did not, that the fair lady be men
toned was heard to ask the Judge who his
i" lanky, gawky friend was" and that she never.
made any such remarks upon our friend as Fish
back so fbbngly states. 'Tis true the Judge was
struck, and often TO be seen slowly revolving
around certain fair star, who, had sne convsrsed
as Ulysses says she did. would have been quite as
bold as he very impudentlY says her eyes Were,
but she didn't; and as for asking him TO take her
home, nary nme, ,''--she had better taste. | never

SAD AcCIEhT--FouRL LIVES LOST.

ATT o'clock yesterday afternoon, a sad accident
occurred to members OF the crew of the steamship
ST. Philippe, Oate Star OF the WesD resulting in
the loss Of four valuable lives. The circumstances
were these: Two boats were lashed together, one
carrying kedge anchor and the other towing the
loaded boat when, owing to the weight OF the
anchor and the rapidity of the current the loaded
boat capsized, carrying the other with it, which
had on board seven persons, three Of whom were
rescued. The names of the lost we give below:
ldshipman j. T. Holden, of Tennessee, lately
from the Annapolis Naval School; Quartermaster
Martin Brown; and Henry Russell and Henry
Morgan, boys.
Lieut.. C0mstock, commanding the St. Philippe,
and his officers and men, did all that was possible
to save the drowning men, but not in time to
save all. DR.. Ralph Darby, Assistant Surgeon
ierkea off his coat, took several life preservers
and plunged into the river to swim to their rescue
We are much Indebted to our friend Drake, Master
alarms of the Sumter, (and formerly printer il
