DEATH OF tr. tl. CRAWFORD. . Von the National Intelligencer. The Southern Mail has brought us the News
nflhe death of WlLAtAM II. CftAWFOItD, of
Georgiaf'a distinguished citizen, hove name is familiar to all our readers, s having for-
merlv filled a large space in the public eye.
He is said to have died, some day in the week before hist, at the house of a friend, a few
miles from Elberton, to which place he was
on his wav to preside as Judsre at the ren-
tember term of the superior Court for Libert
county.
In recurring to the point? of character of
this distinguished citizen, wc speak of Irm a wc knew him, in the prime of life and in a'l
the vigorof his faculties; in the davs when disease had not reached him, nor had the hand of Time bowed his erectand manly figure. His first appearance in the theatre of the
General Government was as the successor of
Mr. Baldwin in the Senate of the United
States, on the 9th of December. 1807. Com
ing there young and comparatively unknown.
and taking a seat in a hodv even then illustri
ous for talent and high character, he soon
made himself known and respected bv the
force of natural ability, energy, and IT'ines
of mind. His speeches were remarkable for
their strength, and his votes for their honest
and independence: and what procured for him
prohably more respect and general regard
than any oilier quality, was his

a young widow lady, only twenty-three years old, obtained a verdict of 1,250 at Green-

her character. The words were fully proved,
anu unuer circumstances indicating gnat malignity. The lady's character was unblem

.4 daring attempt at robbery gallantly mt.
vn attempt was made a short time Since by two villians to rob a young man nam.d Ballow, of North Adams', Mass, of $1500, which lie had just received at the bank. In passing the two scoundrels one of them felled him to
tne ground with a club; but, recovering his
leci immediately, he made at them, and thev fled. He, hoever, caught and recognised one
oi mem, wno conicssed the name of the oth
er ooiQ ucing residents of North Ad.t.
Such hearing as that of Mr. Ballow entitles him to high praise; and if it were more fre
quently imitated, it would very soon render
!oot-pa.nng a losing business to its profes-
our war with Great Britain, and on his return
rereivea vie appointment of Secretary ol
War, which station brought him again to the view of his fellow-citizens. In a year or two afterwards he became Secretary of the Treasury, and discharged the duties'of that office, as he had those of the preceding, with a fideli: ty and a manliness that augmented his already great popularity. Whilst occupying that station, public -.pinion pointed him out as one of the prominent candidates for the office of President of the United States, on the retirement of Mr. MojrnoE. In the midst of the canvass for that office, with the fairest prospects ol success to the. efforts of his friends, he was struck down by disease, which paralyzed his system, and left him so enfeebled as to create a doubt whether he would be in a condition, if elected.to discharge the duties of the office. Whatever ground there might have been for this doubt, it had weight enough to determine the election against him, when it became necessary (there being no choice by the People) for the House to chuse between the three can

A t dinner, one of the hands ran out of doors with a pip, and deceased and the prisoner chasing him. In their playful less, a shoe was thrown, which hit the prisoner. Rhortlv after the deceased came into the house crying, and said the prisoner had hit him on the head" with a stone. This d sturbance was settled, and they all went to tin field to c.-ndl i oafs.
