Another Case of Drowning, f A young man by the name of Thaddeus Moore, aged about 25 years, a resident of PointCaswell, Pender county, was drowned at Mr. O. G. Parsley'a wharf, between Dock and Orange streets, yesterday morn ing, under the following circumstances: He came down the river on a fiat a day or two since, and yesterday morning, between 3 and 4 o'clock, he went onboard of the steamer North East, which had arrived du ring the night and landed at the. wharf mentioned, accompanied by a friend by the name of PridgenJ Soon afterwards persons on the boat heard a splashing in the river between the boat and the wharf, a fiat loaded with wood and shingles being between the wharf and one . end of the boat, leaving an. open space. It is pre sumed that he forgot the situation, of the boat and flat and was under the impression at the moment that he was stepping from the boat to the wharf, instead of which be stepped into the river. Two or three par ties rushed to the rescue, including his friend Pridgen, who, in the excitement of the moment, made the same mistake that Moore did, rushing to the side of the boat and plunging into the river. He was rescued, however," by the colored fireman of tbe boat, a man named Kelly, but only a glimpse of his more unfortunate com pan ion was seen ere he disappeared under the flat, whence he was carried by the treache rous current, adding one more to the large number who have lost their lives by falling into the Cape Fear. , Deceased, whose body had not been re covered at last accounts, was formerly mate on the steamer North East, and leaves a wife and one child to mourn the untimely death of a husband and father. Fire at Shallotte. !T A correspondent at Shallotte, Brunswick county, informs us of a rather remarkable incident that happened at that place on the night of the 3rd inst, which resulted in some loss to Mr. Thomas Lewis. 'He says that a certain party who makes spirit bar rels for Mr. Lewis, after drinking rather too much of another certain party's Schie dam Schnapps, turned in - for a nap and dreamed that he was coopering, and that the barrel he was at work on needed steam ing, whereupon he gathered together his clothes and bedding and set fire to them. Finally, whennearly suffocated, he aroused from his heavy, slumber, seized his burning coat and left the bouse, which was entirely destroyed. Had the wind been blowing Mr. Lewis' loss might have been serious, as the building which was burned was about central between the store and still and a large lot of oak staves, but -the calmness of the night saved him from further damage, his loss being only about $40.

The Young Catholic Friends' Society, in com mon with the entire Archdiocese of Baltimore, has learned with profound sorrow of the death of the distinguished prelate who has been for the past five years its spiritual head. In his death we mourn a departed friend; but while we so mourn, we rev erently bow to the merciful decree which, relieved him from the weighty and responsible duties as an Archbishop of the Church, and placed on his head the crown which is the reward of thef aithfaL - tlA.rn.ua luoiSVKLiT BAYLEY was no ordinary man, nor wen his head and heart: of ordinary mould. - i He was a grandson of Richard Bayley, of New; York, and was bom In that city Anguat 3d, 1814.
