FOR THE CURRIERTo
? W. G. A."
. Mr. Eoiter?Peto Whetstone, Jr. has
jtst come to town, and he wants' to say a
word or two to this ere feller, "W. G. A.*'
I see he lias come out in all sorts ol
style in your last Currier, and has cut a
small swell?how he cuts, and what does he
cut 1 The Ape! Jonathin twist me if he
don't take the monkey off to a T. lie
has cut his own comb off as slick as a
ribbin, and he ought now to be nicked ;
and I think I and Cousin Paul can do it
for Paul you know is a screamer, atid I
aint so bad?but 1 can say wliat I think?
so Paul and me, and mc and Paul is goi?ig
to try him a jump or two down the hill,
and I don't think he's going to come off
the slickest I ever saw.
Now you see, 1 have jist come ere to
this ere town from the back-woods, to see
cousin Paul, and am rite strait from Aunt
Nabby's and she give me a jug of scider
and evcr'so many Punkin Pies to bring to
to cousin Paul; and when he gets one good
bait, there's no doin nothiu with him.
Go it Paul.
Look here Mr. " W. G. A."?I told
Paul all about ketching you in that ere
nasty trick ; about hoolcin that ere Poetry
last week, O ! shame upon you, I think I
seed it in an old Almanick, or somewhere
else, a long time.ago, perhaps, stuck up
near some gentleman's writin desk. And
all about your one-wiibeLbd sulkkY?

tloin the clean grit when he doz it.
And now Mr. " W. (r. A." your very
particular friend, Pete wants, to s?v a word

A corps of cavalry called the ''Lancers"
lias recently been raised in Boston, and
appear to be the crack objects of comment
among the Bostonians, the newest notion
on hand. We have seen so much about
the Lancers in all the Boston papers of
late, that before wc looked into the matter
a little, we thought old Poinatowskv
11acl risen from the dead And led his Polish
light horse incontinently into our beloved
sister ci{y ; but we were mistaken. The
corps cosists of native born citizens, full
blooded Yankees, all alive, and ready to do
yeoman service to the Common wealth. It
is, we doubt not, a noble body of men, and
without having seen any of their exploits,
we Vvould pit them against as many Inlanders
as ever put spear in rest against the
enemies of lc grande annee. To be serious,
this fine company will be found a
most ellicicnt arm of municipal ?rotection.
During the serious riots of Sunday last,
their services were mainly instrumental
in restoring order. Thj corps dined together
at Concert Hall on Wednesday, and
were honored with the presence of the
Governor and vari >us other military and
civic functionaries. N. B. Cannot this
corps take advantage of its present popularity
and eclat, to do something towards
elevating the Bunker llili Monument a
few feet higher ?
The Reverend Walter Colton, Chaplain
in the Navy and author of "Ship and Shore,"
as well as various other works of interest, is
appointed historiographer to the Exploring
Expedition about to be sent out by our Go
vernmcnt. The appointment is unquestion-,
ably a good one and Mr. Colton will discharge .
its duties honorable to the country, and to
himself;?but like the Albany Daily Adver- I
. tiser, we should like to be informed what is
' to become of our friend Kevnolds. In
what capacity is he to act in the expedition?
The project would never have heen undertaken
but for his indefatigable exertions. No
ten men in the country have done so much
towards beginning the matter before Congress
towards a maturity of the plan, and a delineation
of the^lotails, as Captain Keynohls.
j If the appointment of lMr. Cotton, or any
, other arrangement connected with the expe
dition has interfered with the wishes and
, expectation of Keynolds, gross injustice has
' been done to that gentleman. We do not
1 say or believe that any such injustice has
. been done, for we are not informed on the
1 subject?though we should like to be so in|
formed.

CAMDEN, S. C. JUNK 24, 1837.
We take pleasure in calling the attention of our
readers to the advertisement of the '-New Steam
boat Company," which appears in another column,
| It scem3 that notwithsanding tho commercial
! revulsions that have recently overspread the whole
j country, that a new and better era is diwning on
< Camden, ff'e have never doubted but that the
11'tUcrce is as susceptible of navigation by steam as
any river in the State, whilst the extent and fertility
of the back country, for which Caimlen is the ;
natural market, is not excelled by any portion of
the State. Our personal knowledge of the enterprising
and active gentlemen composing the New
Steamboat Company leaves no doubt on our mind
tl,at their promises to the public will be faithfully
fulfilled.

We are unable at this time to lay before our
readers, a detailed account of this affray, which it
seems has raised a great noise, but which in our :
I humble opinion, is barely worth notice. It seems i
I that ail Engine company, in coming in*contact '
I with an Irish funeral inot with some little obstrucItion
from the latter, which resulted in a general
fight between two En'fine companies of the city
and the above named Irish, which caused a great
' display of the military, who arrived on the ground
i time enough to dispense three or four hundred
combattants, and ten thousand spectators, after all
the damage was done?which amounted to several
broken heads, perhaps one or two killed, and the
destruction of some furniture belonging to Irish
families.
Fire.?We learn lrom a North Carolina paper
that a fire occurred in the town of Suffolk Va., a
few days since. The loss is estimated at i&ghO.Ono,
^ of which, a very small amount is covered by insurance.
The Court Ilmse and Jail of the town
were entirely consumed.
I We have before us the Southern Literary Mes|

i murdered near the Big Spring on the Ocl i

ordering them to be on the alert, and recommending

Our cunning enemy has again foiled us,
and has shown himself as successful in the
cabinet as the field. During their protracted
neg iciation. they were enabled to supply
themselves with provisions, clothing and
ammunition ; they brought in large drbves of
cattle, the captured property of our citizens,
which ihey sold to the government and received
certificates therefor at a certain valuation
; these were taken by traders as so
much money, and were thus ettabkd to
purchase supplies. They obtained ainmu-J
iiitiou from the Creek Volunteers, who received
it from the ordinance officers, lbr the

Awful Storm.?The City of Baltimore
was, on the night of the llili inst. visited
by one of the heaviest luius and thunderstorm
PVPr p vnoridlH'i'll in flint noinlilinr- I
hood. A part of the city known as the
Meadows, was totally inundated by the
very sudden and extraordinary rise of the
water at Jones1 Falls?causing the destruction
of both life and property. The
following wc extract from the Baltimore
Chronicle.
"Wc were visited on Wednesday night
with a neavy rain which has been productive
of immense damage, in this city and
neighborhood. 11 commenced ruining ear-i
ly in the evening, and about ten o'clock
poured down in torrents, which lasted for
several hours. At about 12 o'clock, the
.
water in Jones1 Falls, had risen above'
the walls, and continued to rise at a most ,
rapid rale until it reached something like
20 feet above the usual level, sweeping
with it all the wooden bridges, within the
city, which are en that stream, (and damaged
considerably those built of stone.)
together with a number of buildings, with
horses, cows, hogs, and various other pro-!
perty to an immense amount. Besides
the damage thus sustained, the water filled
all the cellars near the falls, and rose several
feet above the floor in most of them,
many of which were tilled with large
amounts of valuable goods of various
kinds. But the most lamentable rcsnli is
the hiss of a number of lives. \ man,'
his wife, ami three children were drowned,
I in their he'is'm-mn lioiiuc, c.o?# we have
I hoard of fourteen inquests which have
I been hold, but how many more have lost
their lives, it is impossible to state. It
would he almost an endless task to numerate
the individuals who have suffered
loss, and nothing' like a certain estimate
can he formed of the amount destroyed
ft has, however, been placet' at a million
I of dollars within the city, and we do not
think it by anv means too high. We have
I heard no particulars front the country,
hut the dan.age there must also h ive been
very extensive.
The water rose to a height considerably
greater than has ever before been known
iti the city.
AtTF.MIITED MUltDEIt AND D F.TE RMIED
suicide at sea.?On S ilurday last a dreadful
attempt to murder Mr. Robert Reid,
the owner of the schooner B divar,(which
arrived on Wednesday in the London
Dock, from Roscoe, in Britanuy, with a
cargo of cork.) was made by James Rider,
the captain of the ressel, who on the same
day committed suicide, by throwing hintself
overboard. It appears from the statement
of the mate and crew, and ttic entry
of the log, that the deceased was a very
intemperate man, and while the ship was
at Roscoe he drank large quantities of
brandy which he procured ashore, and
when the schooner sailed he was almost
unable to direct the navigation of the vessel.
The owner and male took upon
themselves the command, hut as the cap
tain did not immediately display any symptoms
of derangement, lie was allowed to
act, and took the same watches as the
j owner. The cravings of the captain for
brandy were loud and frequent, and as
his system had become used to the liquid,
it was thought prudent by the own r to
allow him a glass occasionally. On Fri-,
day last he bega~n to talk in a very incoherent
manner, and said he knew the owner i
and mate were going to murder him, and
that the crew had hern bribed not to divulge
the plot. Mr. Keid endeavored to
paci V him, and direct! d Mr. Buckingham,
the mate, and all hands, to keep a watchful
eye on the captar . as it was feared
that he meditated some mischief. All
hands on hoard used every effort to quiet
the captain, hut without success. He be
ca ne verv iefractory. and said he had lhe[
horrors, through drinking so much brandy
in France. The mate conversed with him
a short time, and assured him that he
would soon he well. The unfortunate |
man, however, was so strongly impressed
with the erroneous idea that the crew had
a design upon his life, that to quiet him,
a Bible w is procured at his request, and
the for n of an oath ?r ?ne through by th?*
owner, mate and seamen, who kissed the
book, and declared that they did not intend
to do hiin any injury. Captain Rider
ifter this became more calm and remained
below.
At midnight, when the watch was reliev d,
Mr. Reid went below and turned into
his berth in the cabin. The captain was
in bed on the opposite side of the cabin,
ind Mr. Reid was almost asleep#, when he
was aroused by Mr. Rider, who got up,
Walked across the cabin, and asked him to
g;v.o him a glass ol* brandy, for the horrors
were still upon him. Mr. Keid turned out,
of bed for the purpose of giving him a1
glass of brandy, and while stooping, and
in the act of tin locking a drawer under the
cabin table, the captain who was standing
by his side, stabbed him, by plunging u;
sharp-pointed knife into the left side ol his
neck. Mr. liied called out ' Murder, inur-i
der!" atwl the mate immediately jumped
out of bed, and prevented a second blow
which was aimed at Mr. Ileid from taking
effect. Itider then made a blow with a
knife at the mate, who parried it, anti after
a severe struggle with his captain, wrestedj
the instrument from iiis hand, and secured,
him. The wound inflicted on ihe owner
was a very serious one; he bled profusely,
and it was some lime before hemorrhage
could l?e stopped. The owner's wound
having been drcs-ed.two men were appointed
to watch the captain, whose malady
increased ; and during the whole of Friday
night the men had. great difli ulty in pre-i
venting him from d ,ing further viol. nee.
On Saturday morning he began raving. |
and said he was sure the vess 1 was haunted.
For the purpose of undeceiving him he was i
allowed to go on tb ck for a short time, and
he returned to thp cabin, and was more
quiet, ile begged of the owner and mate
r.ot to injure liiin, or let the crew kill bin1 ;
and lie was assured that no harm should
hefal him either 011 hoard or ashore; indeed,
every means were used to compose him.
In a subsequent part of the day, he made
another attempt to nuirifer the owger with
a shut-handled kniie he had secreted under
his bed, and which he had drawn out uuperciiived
! lie was stealing quietly with
the knife towards the owner's bed-place,
and was about to plunge it in his belly,
when one of iiic men caught his had, and
prevented him from carrying his intention
into effect. In the afternoon he was again
allowed to go 011 deck, for the purpose 01
removing the impression from his mind thai
the ship was ba nted.
About 4 o'cl >ck lie went on deck a third
time, the mate and two men keeping close
to him, and after some tune he went down
below again, with two men. the mate remaining
on deck. Directly afterwards the mate
jumped off a bundle of corks which were
piled up a height of eight feet, and proceeded
towards the helm. The Captain no
sooner heard this than he jumped up the
companion, and before the men could seize
him throw himself Overboard. The ship
was instantly put about for the purpose of
saving the captain; but singularly enough.
111 is was no soonci d-me than the wind died 1
away, and it becuTue quite calm. The cap1
'idti.sw.ajn.awav from the vessel, and an oar
and a bundle of corlis ~w*erg~Viy&vy'^towards
I hi in. lie tin n made towards the vessfil,
and the crew were about to lower the longboat,
but before this could he done the unfortunate
man sank, and was not seen again,
j The ship was about 30 miles from the Stait
when the deceased threw himself overboard.
Mr. R. id, who still remains in a very weak
state, communicated the whole of the circumstances
connected with the unfortunate
transaction, to Mr. Hallatitiue, the Thamesi
police magistrate, and from the inquiries
made by the chief sun eyor, under Ins direction,
it does not appear that any blame can
be attached to the people on hoard the 1> "liver,
who used every effort to save the dec' 1
It is the opinion of the crew that the captain
would have stabbed all hands if he had not
been secured by the mate. The deceased
; was a native of Plymouth, where his family
are living. His madness is to he attributed
s lely to the enormous quantity of brand)
he consumed while in France; he was pre!
vi- usly in the enjoy ment of good health.
