HRRoro CoaDucT OF A CouohRnD
MAN.7-W. p Oliveira visited the
Z plantation of General George r..
Harrison, on the Savannah River,
about ten miles from the city. for the
purpose of serving writs in civil
z cases, and returned to the city. on
Sunday last. He reports that on
Saturday morning last four colored
men AND two colored women embark
ed in q, small boat for the purpose of
passing from Argyle Island to the
plantation Of General Harrison, and
when some distance from the shore
the boat upset and prccipitated the
whole party into the river. A
.coiored man, named Stewart Small,
heard the screams of the party, and
without hesitating O moment, he
rushed to the river, plunged in and
swan out to the struggling persons.
he caught o negro man named John
Walker, swan with him to the boat,
and made him catch hold of it; he
then returned and caught Grace
Walker after she had sunk twice,
Iand brought her to the boat. The
sNther four negroes were drowned.
Stewart caused the two whom he had
sayad to grasp the boat firmly; and
he then took hold of it with one
hand, used the other in swimming,
and managed. after a desperate
-sstrnggle. to reach the shore, towing
in the boat and the two human be-
ings. whose lives he had saved.
>4General Harrison, on hearing of the
affair, proceeded at once to the spot,
and had drags arranged, and in
short time three of the bodies were
ataken out of the river. The names
SSof the four who were drowned were:
.;C,, Bntler, Charles Soyer, Kate Sager
Sand Alfred Grower. They all be-
longed on General Harrison's place,
and had been over to Argyle Island
for some purpose Of their own.
Stewart Small, who by his heroic
conduct saved the lives of two fellow
beings, is represented to be an intel
ligent, honest and industrious colored
man, and his gallant behavior in this
instance is worthy of the highest
praise. Ne,uS.

CRIME IN PHILADELPHIA The
Philadelphia criminals have one pc
culiar and shocking crime in which
NO other city indulges to any thing
like the same extent. When we hear
Of q defenceless old lady being MUIR
dered in cowardly and atrocious
manner, we at once know it was done
in Philadelphia. Within the last
he!f dozen JeaTs there have been at
beast Six cases of this character, al
most precisely similar in all their
details. There have, in fact, been so
many cases, that we should think
that all old and infirm ladies would
begin to dread residence in that
charming Quaker City, known RS the
Getty of Brotherly Love"
