board from a Hoboken ferry boat, while in a
state OF temporary alteration of mind. His
body has not been recovered.
-Four of Mr.. Kings friends visited the
boat to-day and found that q gentleman
answering the description of Mr.. King, had
entered tine boat Monday morning, at nine
O'Clock. and remained on the stern Of the
boat. and when the boat was under way in

An alarm was given and the boat stopped
but the body was not seen by any one on

confirmed. Mr. King has been much per-
picked ever since his appointment, over AZ
fairs at Custom House, which weighed heavi-
" upon his mind and undoubtedly eliminated
in his death. Mr. King was bachelor.
The hat brought over was recognized by
Messrs. Thurlow Weed, Mr.. Terwelliger,
Mr. Kings private secretary. and Mr. Usher,
Naval officer. Mr.. King stated to very
intimate friend Sunday night that he would
never see him again. Knowing that Mr..
King had been for some time labOrIng under

JUDGE CoLLANER-IN THE SESATE.-The
Providence Journal probably through the
pen of Senator Anthony pays the following
tribute to the late Senator Collamer
"Judge Collamer was the Nestor Of the SEN
ate. We think that if his colleagues had been
called TO designate the wisest Of the body, the
general suffrage would have fallen upon him.
On every occasion his opinion had great weight.
whether in the open Senate, or in the informal
deliberations which often precede the settlement
Of important measures. He was not frequent
speaker, and he spoke always after mature de-
liberation; and although always with con-
sciousness OF the weight Of his arguments. and
the value Of his judgments, yet without attempt
AZ display, and with no meretricious aids Of
atory. He was listened to with a respect and
attention seldom shown to speakers IN Congress,
for every one knew that he spoke only when he
had something to say, and that whatever he had
to say was worth hearing. Whenever he adj
dressed the Senate, it was always upon matters
actually under consideration, and with the pur-
pose of influencing those who heard him. lie
never spoke for Buncombe.' No man could
have greater contempt for that oratory which
is intended to exalt the reputation Of the speak
er, not to affect the judgment Of the listeners.
Judge Collamer was a man of simple and sin
cere piety, q member, we believe q deacon, Of
the Presbyterian or Congregational Church. and
illustrated, in his public and private life, the
faith be professed. He had the virtues and was
not without the prejudices Of the Puritans, and
was such man could have been produced

ENGLAND's HELP OF THE RKBELs.-No ad-
dItional proof Is needed of the eagerness
and activity with which the English assisted
the Southern Confederacy to the utmost
they dared, but continually new lacts
come to light;.here is one.
1t is asserted that, upon the breaking out
Of the rebellion, Henry Hottie, OF Mobile,
was sent to London to manufacture letters
and articles to be inserted in the English
and French newspapers, in order to give
the most favorable color to rebel transac-
tions, and with full instructions to paw for
their insertion if the matter could not be
managed otherwise.
Upon his arrival at Havana, his visit
to the British Consul, Mr.. Crawford, was of
very friendly nature, and they became 80
intimate that Hottie. b. Helm and the Con-
sui pledged themselves, individually and
collectively, to aid the cause of the confed-
eracy to the utmost of their power while
life remained within them, and from that
hour the British consulate became the chief
rendezvous between rebellion and Europe.
The dispatches were always written in
triplicate, one copy being sent through the
English Post Office, addressed under cover
to the British Consul. as being more sure of
transit. Money, munitions of war &c,
were all consigned to the kind Offices of
Crawford
The captains of the blockade runners were
also first sent to Crawford as being the most
trusted depositary of current port signals.
These signals were changed by the rebels
every month, and Crawford, as being the
moot trusted cmploye, was first made &C
quainted With the changes for the nuruose
of Informing the blockade runners
Ii has been estimated that by Mr.. Craw-
lords direct assistance, upwards of two hun
dred and fifty thousand boxes of tobacco
were thus Struggled out through the block
ade, to say nothing of the munitions of war
supplied to the rebels from England A
slight idea may be formed by the single
statement that Magruders forces in Texas
were armed from the English Irin-
