A HUHAE BoDY FouED IN FHx C.N.t.-
Werkmen employed in cleaning out the
canal lock nearest the Merwin street bridge,
yesterday morning discovered the body Of a
m9p upon the bottom Of the canal, well i'm
bedded in the mud, and in an advanced state
Of decomposition. The sremains were readily
Identified az those Of a German named Fred.
eriek Keller, who between the 10th of Feb
rOary and the 2oth Of November, 1861, was
IN the employ Of Mr.. E. Rotterdam, who
keeps chip providing store on the corner
Of AerWin and Canal streets, as clerk and
oook-keeper. On The night Of the seth of
November he came to the store, where he
slePt,somewhSs intoxicated and could NOT get
in. He went away, and from that time until
the discovery Of his body yesterday morning,
no trace Of him was known, except that his
cane and cap we're found in the coal house
belonging to the store on The morning of the
s0th Of November, where Il is supposed he
passed part Of the pre- ViOub night. At the
time Of his disappearance it was believed
be sss drowned, aud the bed Of the canal
in the vicinity Of the abovs.meutioned lock
was dragged at once. Keller is represented
a. having been very respectable, quiet an d
unassuming lad,-he had not attained his
msjotity-but in the habit of Occasionally ?
allowing strong drink to mater him. Il is
probable that on the night of his death he
was 50 oYerpowored by whisky as 70 stray
into the canal. The Coroner was summon
ed Immediately upon The discovery Of th
body, and a jury Investigated the matter.
Nothing was ELECTED to justify the jury in
supPosing it case of suicide, aud they &C.
eordingly rendered q verdict of accidental
drowning.

GoTTsoHALK TO-NIsHT.--The first Of the
great concerts by Gottschalk and Carlotsa
Patti takes place at Brainard's Hall this
evening. In order that the public may
know what to expect, we quote from the
Buffalo Courier its criticism upon the con-
cert in that city on Monday night--making
no apology for the impressioaable nature of
reporters--paEticularly those Of Buffalo:
We feei that It Is utterly impossible to
convey any shadow Of an idea Of the dag
cling brilliance, the exquisite sweetness, the
absolute perfection Of the Gottschalk concert
last night. Before the sublimity of such
music words, such as are at our command,
shrink abashed from the paper. There was
q fine audience, much better than we, or the
performers expected, on 80 miserable q
night, and this circumstance threw the sew
eral musicians into such happy mood that
their spirits were in tune with the very es-
sence Of all sweet sounds, and they grasped
the hidden soul Of blessed music and cast Il
ringing and sWalling and bubbling as pre-
eious gift 10 the fortunate ones who could
receive it. There was not one flaw in the
whole concert.
Carlotta Patti might teach the angels 70
WNLANAA0A An VIZ SAAA NOEI AoL SUCH
a voice, and such execution, aB hers. It was
utterly impOAsible 10 listen 10 her in the
several pieces she sung and not swear, in
your inmost soul that each was more beau
tiful than sught else. .
For Gottschalk We can ssy absolutely

dazzles the observer like dartinR rays Of
sunlight; the notes Of the instrument then
seem like the tWittering Of q million birds,
or the answering brosdsides Of the navies
Of the world. He is the most suggestive
performer, by far, that We ever listened to,
and we have heard Thalberg. The music
talks 70 you like an inspired prophet,
raving madam, true friend, tender lover.
Effect follows effect 90 rapidly that you are
lost In the avenues Of honeyed reelection
thrown wide before you, and have nothing
for Il but TO turn back and surrender your
self, heart snd soul, 70 the will Of the per-
former. GOttsehalk and music, welded, are
infinite.
