There are four letters in the postoffice
here addressed to Capt. S. 7. Pardee,
ThOs. Bunting, ThOs. Smith and VIM. d.
Bristol, the captain and sailors of the
i'll fated schooner S. II. Levine. which
went down at sea during the recent
storm, and all on board We're lost. The
schooner was en- route from New York
to Palatka, but the storm was too great
for her to weather, and she went to the
bottom to keep company with the many
noble ships that had gone before.
| About Z o'clock last night large crowd
of colored men were standing at the
Kean corner, Obstructing the sidewalk.
A gentleman tried to make his way
| through the crowd, and asked darkie
| to let him pass, and receiving an impu-
/ dent reply, he struck the negro knock
| ing him against the large plate glass
window of Peek's drug store, SCATTERING
| it into fragments. We guess the negro
thought he had butted down the corner
of the house from the racket made, as
| he put off and has not been seen sine.
! We clip the following notice of the
death of young James Welsh, son of
| Capt J. II. Welsh, of Welshton, from
the Erie Daily Dispatch Friends of
the esteemed Welsh family will be at
| the depot this evening to receive the re-
mains OF Captain j. Fl. Welsh's son,
James, who died on Monday. As a ma
tive of Erie who had spent his early life
and acquired his education here, as
might be expected, he had many friends.
His manners were genial, his disy osition
frank and his presence magnetic. Thus
he won his way into the regard OF those
whom he met. His health had some
years since become impaired, for he was
never rugged. A milder climate did
not restore it, yet his death was quite
unexpected. And now his parents and
friends mourn the genial, sunny dispo-
sitioned son, brother and friend. With
the winning presence and hunlOr of his
we'll known father, wherever he went he
made friends. All will miss him and
regret the early death of one so generally
liked. 1t is a severe blow to the family.
Captain and Mrs Welsh will have the
sympathy of many friends, in which the
Dispatch sincerely unites. The funeral
will take place from Mrs. CrOnin's, on
East Fifth street, thence to the Pro Ca
thedral and Trinity Cemetery"
