We find the following telegraphic dispatch in the Nashville Union & American : Louisville, August 4.—The democrats gen erally gain in North Carolina. It is believed they' have elected a majority of Congressmen. A Fine Present. On Saturday last, we were presented by Mr. 1 J. F. Leonard, of this city, with a bottle of gen uine old brandy—pure and unadulterated, and superior in quality to any thing of the kind we have seen or tasted in years. For medicinal purposes, it is invaluable ; and for the trade it cannot be excelled any where in the State. We learn that Mr. Leonard lias a quantity of thia fine article for sale, and to druggists, hotels, and the trade generally, he will dispose of it upon reasonable terms. Let judges try it, and our word for it, they will pronounce it, good! “Read and Circulate." At the request of an intelligent gentleman and friend in this city, who oliserves with a watchful eye, the progress of proscription in the North, we publish an article taken from the Raleigh. North Carolina, Standard, headed as above. In the main, the article contains the opinions of such men as Nathaniel Macon— whose name is still venerated by every patriot— Alfred Dockery, Judge Gaston, and would you believe it, reader, Kenneth Rayner then an apos tle of civil and religious liberty; >tw, a perse cutor of Catholics and Foreigners 1 Bead the document, people of Georgia. Hear what Ken neth. Rayner did say, when in the Convention that was held in Raleigh to alter the Constitu tion of hie State, and compare it with what the miserable traitor is now advocating I Read it, too, that you may know what were the opinions of good, old NATHANIEL MACON, than whom a purer Republican, and better man, nev er breathed. John L. Stephens, Esq, This gentleman addressed a large number of our citizens on Friday night last. In his speech he an nounced that lie was a candidate for Judge of this circuit, and, as such, occupied the novel position of being the first candidate for judiciary honors; that had ever appeared before the people to ad dress them on political issues, and as being the first man in Georgia, that had ever, over his own signature, in a newspaper, denounced Know Nothingism. With regard to his appearance before the people, he stated that he was actu ated by the important motive of letting the people know where he stood in the great battle now being fought between the “Secret Order' and the advocates of civil and religions liberty • and of urging upon them an enquiry into the position of all men, whether thoy lx? candidates for political, or judicial stations. Ho also re viewed the principles of the “American Party”- —declared his determination to vote for John son and Wamer ; and was ready to support, if the Anti-Know Nothings of the circuit would meet in Convention, and nominate a candidate for Judge, any Anti-Know Nothingwhomthey might nominate. Until then he was a candi date, and. as such, would proceed to cauvass the circuit, until the day of election. This was his first speech, but the pneplc of the circuit should ■ hear from him in the several counties comparing it. From the Raleigh Standard. READ AND CIRCULATE! The opinions of Judge Gaston, Rev. Josiah Crudup, Nathaniel Macon, Alfred Dockery, and Kenneth Rayner on the subject of Religious Liberty. We invite the attention of tho people to the following opinions on the subject of religious liberty, extracted from the Debates of the Convention of 1835. We commence with those of William Gaston, a Catholic, and one of the purest and ablest men which this or any other State over produced. Among other things, Judge Gaston said: "But it has been objected Unit the Chat hoi ic religion is unfavorable to freedom—nay, even incompatible with Republican institutions.— Ingenious speculations on such matters are worth little, and prove still Ires. Let me ask who obtained tne great charter of English • freedom. but tho Catholic prelates and barons nt Kunnymcdo ? The oldest, the purest d<“ mocracy on earth, is the little Catholic Repub lic of St. Marino, not a day's journey from Romo. It has existed now for fourteen hundred years, and is so jealous of arbitrary power, flat the executive authority is divided’befcveea two governor?. who are elected every three months. Was William Tell, the founder of Swiss liber ty, a rovalist? Are tho Catholics of Swiss Cantons tn love with tyranny'! Are the Irish Catholics friend- to obedience and nou-resist tince? Was Lafayette, Pulaski, or Kosciusko, I a fix-to civil freedom ? Was Charles Carroll, I of Carrollton, unwilling to jeopard fortune in i tho cause of liberty 1 Let me give you. howev- ‘ er. the testimony of George Whashiiigton. On his accession to the Presidency, he was ad- j dressed by the American Catholics, who ad- I verting to tho restrictions on their worship, ■then existing in some of the States, express ( themselves thus: ‘The prospect of national; prosperity is peculiarly pleasing to us on anoth er account: because, while our country pre serves her freedom and independence, we shall have well-founded title to ciaim from her jus tice equal rights of citizvnsliip. as the price of our blood spilt under your eye. and of our com mon exertions for her defence under your au spicious conduct. ’ This great man, who was utterly incapable of flattery and deceit, utters in answer tiie following sentiments, which 1 give in his own \vords: ‘As mankind become more liberal, they will be more apt to a . that all those who conduct themselves s j thv members of the community, are c titled to the protection of civil gov® ihoptrwwseeAnwhamonj-U v.. nations in examples of justice and liberality : I and I presume that your fellow-citizens will not forget the patriotic part which you the accomplislunent of their Revolution iw.i the establishment of their government, or im portant assistance which they received Lorn a nation in which the Roman Catholic ftath is professed.” By tht- bye sir, I would juiasa a moment to cull the attention of this committe to some of the names sutabscribed to this Ad dress. Among them are those of Julni Oar roll, the first Roman Catholic Bishop in the United States. Charlra Carroll, of Carrollton, and Thomas Fitzsimmons. For the character of these distinguished mtn. il they need vouch ers, I would confidently cal) on’the venerable; President of this Convention. Bishop Carroll; was one of the best of men, and mwt devout of j Christians. I shall never forget a t ribute to his | memory paid by the good and venerable Pro-1 testant Bishop White, contrasting the piety ‘ with which the Christian Carroll met death.; with the cold trifling that characterized the last I moments of the skeptical David Hume. I I knew not whether the tribute was more honor-1 able to die piety of the dead, or to the charity i of the living prelate. Charles Carroll, of Car-; rollton, the last survivor of the Signers of Amer-1 icau Independence—at whose death both Hous-i es of the Legislature of North Carolina unan-( imously testified their grief, as at a national be- i reavement! Thomas Fitzsommons. one of the • illustrious Convention that framed the Consti-1 tution of the United States, and for several i years the Representative in Congretß of the city ! of Philadelphia. Were these, and such im these foes to freedom and unfit for Republicans?— Would it be dangerous to permit such men to be sheriffs or constables in the land ? Rend the funeral eulogium of Charles# Carroll, delivered at Rome by Bishop England—one of the great est ornaments of the American Catliolic Church —a foreigner indeed by birth, but an American by adoption, and who, on becoming an Ameri can, solemnly abjured all allegiance to every foreign king, prince and potentate whatever— that eulogium which was so much carped at by English royalists and English tories—and I think you will find it democratic enough to suit the taste and find an echo in the heart of the sternest republican amongst us. Catholics are ( of all countries—of all governments—of all pi-1 litical creeds. In all. they are. taught that the i Kingdom of Christ is not of this world, aud that it is their duty to render unto Ctesar the things that are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s.” Referring to the charge that catholics owe temporal allegiance to the Pope of Rome Judge Gaston said: “It. has been asked, whether the allegiance of catholics to the people be spiritual, only, and true learned gentleman from Halifax has unques tionably shown that they do not owe him civil allegiance. Sir, I object in toto to the term al legiance as characterizing the connection be tween the catholic and chief Bishop of his church. I owe no allegianoe to any man or set of men on earth, save only to the State of North Caro lina, and so far as she has parted with her sov ereignty, to the United States of America.— The charge tliat catholics owe allegiance to tho Pope, is wholly false. See Debates of the Convention, page 293. We give ne< the speech of the Rev. Josiah Crudup, of Granville county—a distinguished minister of the Baptist Church : “ Mr. Crudup said, as he should bo called up on to vote on this question before the Commit tee, ho thought it necessary to give some of tlte reasons which would govern his vote. No man could hold the rights of conscience more sacred than ho did. He t bolieved tlx? Article in ques tion had been considered as a perfect nutility, aud had, therefore, done no real injury to any one. Liberty of conscience has on all hands been considered us an unalienable right. No government can interfere between man and his Maker. Mr. C. said ho made a distinction be tween partial and complete toleration, and took a pretty general view of the state of religion in different countries. All the institutions of this country, he said, acknowledged the truth of the Christian religion; and who impedes its progress is considered as impeding tl>e happiness of man. Mr. 0. staid though he came to thOjConven tion with an intention of voting for an amend ment of this Article, hie intention had lxx.n somewhat staggered by the arguments used in favor of the measure. Nor did he think the true merits of the question had yet 1-xwu touch ed. It had been remarked by the gentleman from ; Orange, that the Convention must Ire careful how it approaches the Article in question; that the passions of the wople are excited, and that tho ratification of t.ne Constitution would be hazarded by meddling with it. Mr. C. enter tained a high respect for public opinion, but he should think that it would be generally admit-1 ted that no profesaing believer of Christianity ought to be excluded from office—further than this, ho was unwilling to go. With the gentleman from Halifax, (Mr. Daniel.) he believed the Pope of Home possess ed no temporal power, except over a small pro vince in Italy. He had therefore no fear of his temporal power encroaching on this coun try. Indeed the despots of Europe would at all time keep him in check. Mr. Ci did not believe that Popery was changed. He believed it would continue an unit, and be tho saute. He knew that it had been an opinion long urged against the Catho lics of this country, that they held principle? inimical to free government: but nothing of this kind had ever been substantiated against them, and facts were the best evidence in their favor. Mr. C. then adverted to the persecutions which the Catholics had undergone tn different ports of Europe, and eejiecially in Ireland. The spirit of tho age, said Mr. C., calls aloud for mor® liberal opinions on the subject of religious liberty. He had hoped that the time had passed fur entertaining any fears for I’o]fery in this country. The Bible Socie ties of England aud America had done much in enlightening and liberating the public mind on the subject of religion in id! parts of the world. The only proper mode of meeting the ef forts which aro said to lx- now making by the Catholics in the Valley of the Mississippi and elsewhere, to spread their doctrines, is for the Protestants of all sects to become more unit ed amongst themselves. By doiug away all petty divisions and strifee. and exerting all their moral influence in supiiori of the gMit doc trines of ’lie Reformation, the? would then have nothing to fear on the scon of their re ligion. Mr. C. concluded with expressing bis belief that great prejudice and excitement exisfexi on this subject, which it would require some time to allay.” See Debates of Convention, page 245. ! On the same occasion, the wise and vcrreralife i Nathnuiol Macon raised his voice in favor of religious freedom. Hear him. ami pondiwwhat, ho says; "Mr. Macon said he took the bnnd ground I that tn.V' alone was respontiino to his Creator; for hi- religious faith, aud that no human power; had auv right to interpose tn the matter, or to ■ prtvwrib? any particular opinions a® ate-t of titnres for office. If a Hindoo -.■ re t come among as, and was fully qualified to discharge' the duties of any office to which he might as pire, his religious belief would not constitute an; objection, in his opinion, why he should lie de- j burred. Who made man a judge, that he should j presume to iuterti-re in die sacred rights of con science '? He had always thought that e mix ture of politics aud religion wai the very ewence ot' hypocracy. ilr. M- said some gentlemen had exq-Tiwed tho opinion that th;? Article, as it now stood, could do no harm. Who can tell to what the spirit of proscription, on which it is baerf. may lead. A spark may fire the world. Event’s 1 push each other Mong, aud one passion but serves to enkindle another. So tar’os he was individually concerned, it mattered not what provisions were incorporated in tiie Constitu tion. His time had most cm-?. But this Ar ; tide was the only feature in the old Constitu tion which he had ever heard objected to out of ■‘•e; and the objection was always coup- • ■> expression of surprise that 'it could ■othold in a State where the princi y were so well understood. There . a when a man, if a tpue patriot, miat stake himself for die good of his country. The ; present was a crisis of that kind. When our country was in distress, said Mr. M.. in our Revolutionary struggle, we applied to Catholics for assistance, and it was gener ously extetidixi. Without foreign assistance, we never should have achieved our independence. Mr. M. said a part of the article referred to Atheists. He did not believe there ever was un Atheist, whatever hw nation or color. It was impossible for any man to look at himself, at the water, at the animal and vegetable king dom. at the sun, moon or stars, without ae- ■ kuowledging the existence of a great first ’ CAt'SE. What gave rise to the first settlement in j North Carolina? 'lhe persecution.-: in New l England and Virginia. New England, to use the language of u great man, was settled by the Puritans of die Puritans—Virginia was settled by Episcopalians. These two States never had any intercausc until the Revolution. Tills goodly land, we inhabit, was discovered by Catholics. .Should not this fact occur to us when we talk about disfranchising them'. To him it appeared too plain a question to argue, that every man may worship God ac cording to the dictates of bis own conscience.— But it is a practical denial of its truth to debar a man from office, because he may entertain eertiJn ■ religious opinions. There was one | member of this Convention whose father had been inhumanly murdered by die Tories in our Revolution struggle—lie begged pardon for the allusion, but it was history—and shall it be said, that his son baptised, as it were, in the blood of his father, is unworthy a seat in the | Legislature of our country? No, sir, no gen tleman would say this. The Christian Reli gion was founded on good will and peace to man. Examine the Redeemer’s sermon on the Mount—is there any persecution there? And who made us greater than Hz, that we should proscribe our brethren for opinion’s sake. You might as well attempt to bind the air we breathe, as a man’s conscience—it is free—liberty of thought is his unalienable birth-right. ’ He. never heard this great out-cry against Religious freedom, but what he was forcibly reminded of the Pharisee and Publican. He was too tired to repeat it; but every body remembered it. Roger williams of Rhode Island, Mr. M. said, was the first man to establish toleration in North America-—he was r. Puritan. Charles Carroll, of Carrollton, the man who staked more by signing tho Declaration of Indepen dence than any other individual, was a Catho lic. As he stepped up to sign, some person re marked, “ there goes two millions with the dash of a pen Another friend remarked, “ Oh. Carroll, you will get off, there are so many Charles Carrolls.” He stepped back and added, “of Carrollton." A man so pure, that even sectarian bigotry could find nothing to allege against him. It was not, therefore, the particular religious notions, which a man entertained that made him a good ctiizen or a good man. Mr. M. said, fears seemed to be entertained by some gentlemen, that the Roman Catholics would overrun the country. They might do it, but he did not think it was half as probable, as that a mouse would kill a buffalo 1 Let them come when they will, Mr. M. said, ho wauld lay a wager that the Protestants con verted two to the Catholics one. As for him self, he was inclined to the Baptist Church, and he did not care who knew it; but he was far from believing in all their doctrines*. Neither did be believe it essential, that a man should attach himself to any particular Church. If he faithfully discharged all his duties on earth, and obeyed the precepts of the Gospel, be would not be asked, when he readied Heaven, to what acet he belonged. Mr. M. said, in conclusion, he would not have troubled the Committee, but he did not wish any one to believe that he was disposed to shulfi from responsibility. Ho was not vain enough to believe that his opinions would have any weight in that body, but he must bo allowed to say, that he considered the decision of this question as involving the future character of North Carolina.” See Debates of the Convention, page 246. On the same occasion, Gen. Alfred Dockery, the late Whig candidate for Governor, said that “after the satifactory exposition of the principles of the Catliolic faith by the gentle man from Craven, he was willing, individually to amend the Article, but could not jeopard their whole labors here by interfering with it.” (Seo Debates, page 404.) Gen. Dockery was ready to establish religions freedom, but be feared the Constitution would be rejected if it was altered in thia respect; but Mr. Rayner declared that if there was no other way to en sure the ratification of the Constitution “ but by sacrificing the great principle of religious liberty, then, in the name of all that is sacred, let it be consigned to an eternal oblivion." Yes, so anxious was Mr. Rayner that permis sion should be given Catholics to hold office, that he declared “it were better that society should be dissolved into its original better that the tide of colonial vassalage should again sweep over this extensive country, from the seaboard to the mountains, and we should be left again to grapple for our freedom with the tyrant’s chain, or the bigots scourge—to wade to our liberty through ocean’s of tears and seas of blood, than in this enlightened age, when the march of mind is onward, we should prove so recreant to the spirit of liberty, as to light anew the torch qf persecution, and extinguish forever tlx? fond liopes of philanthropy and freedom." [See Debates, page 262.] Mr. Rayner says now. we understand, that he has nothing to take back—that he would make the same speech aud give the same vote again; and yet he is, this day, engaged in “light ing anew the torch of persecution”—he is en deavoring to exclude “from the honors, the profits and emoluments of the State " a certain portion of our citizens Iwcause they are Catho lics ; and such exclusion, according to his own recorded opinions, which he declares he still holds, “is the highest persecution which public j opinion will tolerate in any Christian country; in this enlightened age.’’ Kenneth llavner, I the persecutor!—Kenneth Rayner, tho bigot I i —Kenneth Rayner giving the lie to public men ’ more honrst than himself, who have twn con- i strained, by a sen».‘ of public duty to convict I him. from his own record, of his demagogueism. his evasions, and his palpable and gross incon- i aistencesl He says he would not rule the Catholics out by the Constitution, but would only vote them out at the polls I Why what a schoolboy sophistry is that 1 He insists in one breath that Catholics shall hare Constitutional rights, and in tho next got*? to the polls and denies them these rights, and pcrsix-ntes them because they are Catholics 1 That is a speci men both of his honesty and his logic. We make the following extracts from the speech of Mr. Rayner, already referred to; and wo ask special attention to thos. port ions which are in italics: “Bus it is said, if the Catholic fe excluded ib m office, that will deprive him of tho right of worshipping God according to the dictates of I his own conscience. Sir, the right of worship-1 ping G‘xi, free from all personal pains and pt-! nalties. is a right which can noir r.»? enjoyed in any country in Christendom. An exclusion from - /icaers. ' profits and emoluments vs the State is the highed pirsecutton which public e>prnto:i \ will toleratem any Christian country in th?? I enlightened age. So that, if you sanction tls? principle recognised in the 32d article, you use the rod of persecution with as anspiring » hand m it is twea in Spain, or the States of the church. And if you exclude one sect, why not another and another, and finally all except one It was a favorite saving of’ Napoleon that there was but one step from the sublime to the ridiculous: and on the same principle there is ♦mt one step from religious freedom to the most bitter and intolerant persecution. • Retain that article, and I aseert it the Cath olic and the Jew will be placed vnre~ the ban of proscription, no matter how great mar be his merit; although be may love bis country with a patriotism as pure as the first love of woman : although he may pour out his blood like water in her defence ; yet. for daring to -worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience." you cut him off from all hope of political pre ! ferment, and from all etimui”is t ? a laudable ambition. Like the Israelites in Egypt, he ■ will be oppressed by the land in which be lives, ♦he soil on which he treads, and like them he w2l bavi bo ether resesrse left but to taro hii back upon the graves of his fathers, and take up his inarch to a more tolerant clime. Sir,' the exclusion from office foi opinion's sake, in this enlightened age. proeixxls from the same spirit of bigotry and siqx'rstitiun which lacs preyed upon mankind from the building of Ba bel to the present time ; it is the same spirit which presented the cup to Socrates, which confined Galileo in his dungeon, which bound Craltaic-r to the stake of martyrdom, which drove the Hugenots from France —nay, more. • sir, it is the same spirit which led the Saviour of the world to Calvary’s awful summit. Sir, what must be situation of the emigrant who comes to thi« conntry for tlie sake of Reli-j gious freedom, if the appearance of the good old North State should induce him to make it his home? Will he not wish himself across the; wide waters again, that “after life's fitful fever . is o’er.” he may lay his bones with those of his j fathers? What mustjie the feelings of the pi-1 ous mother, when looking on In i- tender infant.: who she believes her duty to her God enjoins her; to train np in the same way which has secured i peace to her own bosom—what must be her j agonized feelings when she reflects that by so I doing she is consigning him to obscurity lor , ever? Sir, J would ask this convention wheth ; er this proscription Is in accordance with the { holy precepts and requirements of the Gospel? ‘ Does it accord with that meekness and forebear-; ance which characterized the Saviour in his so journ among men? Does it ueeord with that benevolence for the human family, that charity for othcip, without which, the Apostle says a practible exercise of ali Christian duties, coup led with a faith strong enough to remove moun tains. is “as sounding brass and u tinkling cymbal.” “Sir, is this Convention ready to incorporate into our fundamental law, the doctrine, that “honesty, capability, and faithfulness to the con-; stitution," is not a sufficient qualification for office, but that he who obtains it, must abjure a certain particular faith? Sir. who constitu ted us judges of tho hearts aud conscience of men? Wlmt right have we to impugn the mo tive; of our fellow-men ? It is assert ing one of; the attributes of the Deity himself: for it is the Lord alone that poudereih the heart.—Sir, you may carry on this system of persecution, put there Is one point beyond which you cannot go. You may subject, the body to privation aud torture, but you cannot tether the mind—fetters cannot bind it—tyrants cannot enchain it—dun geons cannot confine it—it will rise superior to 1 the powers of fate, and aspire to him who gave it.” See Debates of the Convention, page 262. The Young Peddler., One rainy afternoon, in the earliest part of Au tumnz I heard a low knock at my back door, and upon opening it, found a peddler. iVowpeddlera aro a great vexation to me; they leave the gates open, they never have anything I want, nd I don’t like the laces that belong to most of them,; ' especially those of the strong men who go about' with little packages of coarse goods, and I al-1 ways close the door upon them, saying to myself; lazy. This was a little boy, and he was pale and ; wet, and looked so cold, I forgot he was a pod- I diet, and asked him to come in by the fire. 11 thought he appeared as though he expected I I was going to buy something, for he commenced j opening his tin box, but I had no such intention. He looked up in my face very earnestly and sad ly, when I told him to -w arm himself by the fire, and that I did not wish to purchase .anything.— He rose slowly from his seat and there was some thing in his air which reproached me, and I de- ■ tained him to inquire why he v. as out jn the rain ■ He replied. “I am out every day, and can’t, stay in for a itlle rain; besides, most peddlers stay at home then, and I can sell more on rainy days.” “ ow much do you earn in a day?” “Sometimes two shillings, sometimes one, and once in a while I get nothing al! day. and then, ma'am I am very tired,” Her® he gave a quick, dry c urb, which start j led me. j “How long have you had that c mgh?" i “1 don’t know, ma'am* I “Does it hurt you ?” “Yes, Ma'am.” '!Where does your mother live?" “In heaven, ma'am," said he 'lumoved “Have you a father?” “Yes, ma'am, ho is with mother.” h<- replied hi the same tone. “Have you any brothers or sisters?” -‘I have a little sister, but she wont to mother ' about a month ago.” “What ailed her?" “Bhe wanted to see mother, and so do I, and I guess that's why I cough so,” “Where do you live?” : “With Mrs. Brown, on N*——street." “Doe* she give you any medicine for your ! cough?” j “N.'-t doctors’ medicine—she is too poor, but | she makes something for me to take." “Will you take something if I give it to “No. ma’am. I thank y ou; mother took medi cine. and it didn't help her. though she wanted to stay, and you see 1 want to go; it would not stop my cough. Good day, ma’am.” “Wail a minute,” I said, “1 want to see what you carry." He opened his box, and for once I found what j I wanted. Indeed;! didn't think it would have mattered what he had.

How thankful lie was, and how his. sunken blue eyes looked into min® when I paid him. “You don't ask m® to take a cent less,” said he, after hesitating a minute. “I think you must he very rich." “Oh, no,* 1 replied ; “I am far from that; and these things arc worth more to me now than I gave you for them.

A most delplorahlc accident occurred at Coney.; Island on Wednesday, which will carry mourn ing and grief to more than one family. It ap pears a large party of ladies and gentlemen star ted from Williamsburg. New York, on Wednes day morning on a pleasure trip to Coney I*'® lll ' at which place they arrived about noon. 1 hey stopped at Wycoti's Hotel; below the Oceanic House, and went from there to the shore, where ; thev went in bathing. There were other bathers ; in the water, indeed tho beach was lined with them. All passed off pleasantly until a cry was raised, “The undertow !” “the undertow! and , on looking towards the ocean the company saw with dismay five, cf their party drifting out sea. Great confusion immediately prevailed, amt ct-1 torts were made to procure a boat, but none could be found for a mile either way along the beach. No other resource being left, the doors ot the bathing houses were torn off and shoved out alter the persons in the water, and two' ot them were sav d thereby. But the most melancholy part of this story remains to be told. It appears the difficulty orig inated bv a young lady named Mary Ann Elli ott getting beyond her depth, and feeling the undertow talking her out she screamed out, “1 am sinking, save me!” Her father, Kev, John Elliott, who was in the water, seeing the danger of his child, swam towards her; but before reach in.. the spot where she was, he was also taken with tho current and drifted out to sea and soon sank. He rose once to the surface and threw his arms up wildly in the air, then sank again and was seen no more. The peril of Miss Elliott was also seen by a Mr. Thomas Gibbons, the affianced husband of the lady, who immediately waded and swam to where she was struggling in the water, and sue ceceded in holding her up lor some time. Ihe greatest excitement prevailed at the moment the tragedy was being enacted, and no one seem ed able to offer any assistance. Iho couple were borne out rapidly and thoso on the shore gave them up for lost, when it was seen that Mr. Gibbons had secured a piece ot timber, and had seized it for support, but unfortunately it, was not large enough to uphold both, and Mr, Gib bons disengaged himself from Mies Elliott and told her to grasp the suspenders of bis bathing dress behind, while he held on the wood. This she did for a time, but with a true woman s de votion, seeing that her liner was sinking, and fearinfs that he would drown, she suppressed in thatmioment of peril, when the horrors of death were clustering around her, the selfish instinct of her, for life, and let go her hold though he begged her for God’s and her own sake to nev er mind him but herself. She soon sank and was seen no mor®. Mr. Gibbons was fortunately drifted towards a point ot the island where he found a foothold and was dragged ashore by means of ropes. , Two other persons, a Mr. Henry Boyd, Jr. and a Miss Eastman, were also caught in the same current, but fortunately managed to secure one of the boards floating about and were towed towards the shore. .Miss Eastman had sank once or twice, and was so overcome by terror and her injuries that it is feared she will not recover. She was taken to the Ocean House, and now lies there in a dangerous condition. Mr. Boyd esenp ped unhurt. 1 KtT* A dispatch from St. Louis dated the ' | 27th ult., says : ; “Major Andrew McDonald, member of the ' Council in Kansas, formerly of Virginia, was ' yesterday appointed bearer of the memorial to I President Pierce, requesting Gov.
