Marriages and Deaths from Rochester Newspapers
Jan. 1, 1829 - Dec. 31, 1829

line

Vital records in New York State weren't recorded by the state until 1880. For early vital records you have to either find church records or hope that the event is recorded in the newspaper. For the time period of this page, there were these newspapers published in Rochester:

  1. Rochester Telegraph / Rochester Daily Telegraph was published July 7, 1818 - Jan. 3, 1829. It was originally a weekly newspaper and in April 1827 became a daily newspaper. Only published for three days in 1829 then merged with Rochester Daily Advertiser. No known existing copies of those three issues.
  2. Rochester Daily Advertiser was published from Oct. 25, 1826 - Jan. 3, 1829. Rochester Public Library has a microfilm for June 18, 1828 to Jan. 3, 1829. The Fulton History website has Oct. 1, 1828 to Jan. 3, 1829.
  3. Rochester Daily Advertiser and Telegraph was published from Jan. 5, 1829 - April 3, 1830. Rochester Public Library has Jan. 5, 1829 - Feb. 1, 1829 and July 17, 1829 - Apr. 3, 1830. The Fulton History website has Jan. 5, 1829 to Dec. 31, 1829. The images on Fulton History came from the collection at the NY State Library and contain issues not at RPL and are also missing some issues that RPL has.
  4. Rochester Observer was published from Jan. 6, 1827 - 1832. Rochester Public Library has a microfilm for the entire run.
  5. Rochester Republican was published Aug. 7, 1827 - Aug. 27, 1884. Rochester Public Library has Dec. 29, 1829 - Dec. 25, 1832. Also a few scattered issues found at Rochester Museum and Science Center.
  6. Anti-Masonic Enquirer was published from Feb. 12, 1828 to Feb. 1834. The Rochester Public Library has 12 issues from 1829 that they scanned and have on this web page. Also RPL has microfilm from Sept. 15, 1829 - Dec. 24, 1833.
  7. The Gem of Literature and Science was published 1829 - 1843. The Rochester Public Library has from 1829 that they scanned and have on this web page. [Later name changed to Rochester Gem and Ladies' Amulet].
  8. The Craftsman was published Feb. 10, 1829 - Feb. 16, 1831. Rochester Public Library has a complete bound set.

Note that some of the films have been scratched and some pages are out of focus so there are some illegible records.

The records on this page are extracted as published in the newspaper. Small monthly calendars are included to help when a newspaper record states that an event happened "last week Thursday."

You may wonder about birth records. Except for a few rare birth notices, birth records were not published until the mid twentieth century.

Two abbreviations that appear frequently in these old records are; inst. and ult. Their meanings are inst. = instant, an old word meaning this month and ult. = ultimo meaning last month.

INFORMATION WANTED

The subscriber is laboring under the most poignant distress, arising from the absence of her husband John Fitzpatrick, who from unavoidable misfortunes, was compelled to leave here about four months ago for the east, since which time nothing certain has been heard of hin; there has been a report that he died somewhere about Rochester, but nothing postive has been elicited on this subject. Should this meet the eye of any person who knew him formerly, they would confer on the subscriber a lasting obligation, and relieve her mind from agony almost past bearing. Her other distresses, which are great indeed, (having to support by her individual industry five young and helpless children) are nothing in comparison to this.
    Editors of papers between this village and Albany would do a deed of real charity by giving this one insertion.

Coroner's Inquest.—An inquest was held by coroner Lyon, at the house of Enoch Wing, Esq. on the 6th inst. on the body of his son Freeman S. Wing.—The deceased, in company with seven other young men, came in a sleigh to the tavern of Mr. Howe, in Hopewell, at 1 o'clock, on the morning of the 5th inst.—The night was dark, and the deceased started to go to the barn, to see about the horses. A newly dug well, which was not yet stoned up, or protected by a curb, lay in the direction of the barn, and one of the planks which covered it, having not been replaced by the person who last drew water, the deceased slipped into the well, and was not missed until he had remained there about 15 minutes. Search being made, his hat was discovered on the surface of the water, and the body was soon after extricated from the well, but not until life was extinct. It is stated, that the deceased and his companions, are of the most respectable families, in the town of Phelps.
    Verdict of the jury—death by accidentally falling into the well.—Ontario Repos.

On Saturday the 31st Jan. last as Mr. Jeremiah Nicholas of Italy, in this county, was engaged in cutting ice from the water-wheel of the grist-mill owned by Abraham Maxfield, Esq. he was suddeny precipitated from his position by the unexpected revolution of the wheel, and literally crushed to death in an instant.— By this calmitous visitation of Divine Providence an aged mother, a wife, and several children, are irreparably bereaved of thsir earthly hope. Mr. N. was 44 years of age. As a husband and father, he was kind, affectionate, and faithful; as a citizen, he was just in his dealings and honorable in his intercourse; as a Christian, he was regular and consistent in his deportment and steady in his attachment to the cause of Religion. In short, he was an estimable man—and his place will not easily be supplied in the society from which he is taken.—Yates Co. Republi.


CELEBRATION of St. Patrick's Day.—On Tuesday next, the 17th inst. at 2 o'clock P. M., a Sermon suitable to the occasion, will be delivered in the Roman Catholic Church in this village, by the Rev. Michael Macnamara, R. C. Pastor; a collection will be taken up by the Ladies' association, to aid them in effecting some repairs connected with the Church.

DIED,

In Washington, on the 2d inst. Mrs. Sarah W. Barnard, consort of the Hon. D. D. Barnard, member of Congress from this district, and daughter of the late Henry Gilbert Livingston, Esq., of New York.
    On the 20th of Feb. after a lingering illness, in the town of Chili, Mr. JOSEPH MORGAN, a Revolutionary Patriot in the 75th year of his age.
    Mr. Morgan was a native of New London, (Conn.) where he resided until a short time previous to the commencement of the War of Independence. He was in the West Indies, where he first heard of the commencement of hostilities, upon which, as the old man expressed it. "There arose an emotion in my breast, which never was hushed until we were acknowledged Free and Independent." He returned immediately, to place himself among the defenders of his country. It is impossible in this notice to give a regular detail of all his exploits, sufferings &c. He was in a number of the battles, fought during the war, those of Long Island, White Plains, Princeton, Germantown, Monmouth, Stoney Point, and York Town, in all of which his firmness, courage, and good conduct secured him the esteem and confidence of his officers, and more than once, the marked and particular approbation of Washington himself. He was at one time employed by Gen. Washington in such a service, as fully proved his confidence in his integrity and patriotism. He was in the service seven years and eight months. After the war, he visited his native state, where he resided until the year 1788, when he came into this part uf the country. He was one of the first who settled on the Genesee river. He purchased a farm on which he died. When he firat came in, there were but two or three houses in Geneva or Canandaigua, and many years after he had fought tbrough most of the difficulties attendant upon new settlements, the place where the village of Rochester now is, was a wilderness. Mr. Morgan was a man of the most unassuming worth, never taking that credit to himself which was due to another. When he was introduced to La Fayett in Rochester, the General attributed to him an exploit whivh any man would be proud be the author of, but Mr. Morgan corrected him at once, "it was another man of my name." In his person was united all that is dignified and venerable, in his character, all that is good, virtuous, and pntriotic, and his whole life was marked by persevering industry, stern integrity, and active benevolence. He was an affectionate husband, and father, an obliging and social neighbor, a good citizen, and in fine he was the noblest work of God—"an honest man"—and knowing him, I do not wonder that upon him were centered the affections of all who knew him, or that all mourn his deatb.

THE AQUEDUCT

The convenience of this work as a bridge for foot passengers, indicates the propriety of rendering it safe by erecting a railing on its south side. Though wide enough to admit the passage of two persons abreast, the path on that wall is not free from danger, as a sudden gust of wind or a slight misstep might precipitate the passenger instantly to the rocky bed of the river. About 700 feet of railing only is required to make the south side of the Aqueduct as safe a throughfare for the citizens as the north side (the tow path) is for the horses. Those whose convenience would be most promoted by the improvement, should request the attention of the proper authorities to it.

DIED—In Detroit, on Sunday the 10th inst. Mrs. Harriet C. Whiting, wife of Dr. John L. Whiting, and daughter of Dr. John Talman, of Hudson, N. Y. (and sister of Mr. John T. Talman of Rochester) in the 33d year of her age.
    The deceased was a communicant of the Protestant Episcopal Church, and has left a bright example for the comfort and instruction of her relatives and friends. In her was manifested the happy union of native amiablenes of disposition and of the purifying and elevating influence of religion. Of unassuming manners, of benevolent feelings, and of a guileless spirit; devoted to the study of the precious truths of salvation, dedicated in sincerity to the service of God her Saviour, and exhibiting at all times the fruits of evangelical belief; her character engaged affection, as it commanded reverence. Though called suddenly at the last to the eternal world, yet she had long chosen the better part: and the remembrance of the faith which adorned her life, induces the consolatory conviction, that she sleeps in peace; and that death was to her soul the birth of glory.

In West Mendon, Mrs. Hannah Parish, wife of Captain Abraham Parish, aged 47.
    In Henrietta on the 2d inst. Mr. Luther Remington, aged 20. The circumstances of his death were uncommonly solemn and afflicting. He had left the house of his widowed mother in the early part of the afternoon for the purpose of planting a small space of ground on the farm which he cultivated; but not returning at the expected time, alarm was excited in the minds of the family for his safety. Search was made for him, when to the surprize and grief of his relatives, he was found lying with his face to the ground, life being extinct. He had undoubtedly been seized by an epileotic fit, to which affection he had been subject; and having fallen on sandy earth, it is supposed, from various appearance, that strangulation ensued. To his mother and other friends, is left, the exceeding consolation, that although death to this son and brother, was awfully sudden, yet there is special reason to believe, that his exit from earth was to him an introduction to the holy and happy society of heaven.
    About two years since, he began to indulge a hope of "eternal life," which he felt encouraged to think was authorized by the scriptures.— How impressively are we reminded by such an occurance, to be "ready; for in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of man cometh."— Communicated.

    Publishers of papers in New Haven and Middlesex counties (Conn.) are requested to insert the above notice.

Departed this life, May 18th, 1829, Sacarissa, the principal and venerable Chief, of the Tuscaroras. He was among the first of that tribe, who embrased the precious doctrines of the Gospel, with the requisitions of which, his external conduct and appearance well accorded. During four months of his last illness, his sufferings were intense; nevertheless were borne with great fortitude and apparent resignation to the will of heaven. He arrived at the advances age of 83 years, and died lamented by numerous acquaintances. The tears and sobs, visible among his own people, when his remains were about to be conveyed to the silent lodging of the grave, strongly evinced the attachment and affection which they cherished toward him. Although he now sleeps in dust, he will be affectionately remembered by those who walked with him to the sactuary of God. He needed to proposals made by the New York Missionary Society, for instructing his people in the great truths of Christianity, and abided faithful to the last. He ever manifested affection and respect for missionaries who came among his people, and treated them as servants of Christ; with few exceptions, he declared his satisfaction in relation to their labors, and to his latest breath, protested against innovation. It is not the design of the writer to eulogize; God is the Judge of hearts; but he ardently wishes, that the external conduct all professors of religion were as consisten as that of the deceased.

DIED,

In Riga, at the residence of Henry Brewster, Esq., on the 8th inst., of the consumption, Miss Mehetabel Lester, aged 31 years.
    During the period which she lingered on the borders of eternity, she exibited an humble acquieseence to the divive will; awaited with patience and resignation her approaching change, and gave most consoling evidence taht death to her would be gain. Her departure was peculiarly peaceful, as she fell asleep, we trust, in Jesus, and has left one more testimony to the power, truth, and excellency of that gospel which can thus support the soul in the dying hour.—Communicated.

OBITUARY.

"In the midst of life we are in death." The case of our late felow citizens, S. MELANCTON SMITH, is a melancholy exemplification of this solemn truth. Wjile walking in his garden, after tea on Saturday, he fell suddenly, and expired !
    He had been somewhat indisposed for a few days previous—but had recovered sufficiently to attend to business. The cause of his death was probably unconnected with this temporary illness. It is supposed to have been an eruption of the heart.
    The character of the man, not less than the circumstances of his death has excited a strong sensation among our citizens. It is the lot of few to pass through life with a reputation more unsullied. He was the oldest, as he was one of the most extensive and estinable, of our merchants. He "grew with the growth, and strengthened with the strength" of Rochester; and in all the varied relations of civil life sustained a character in consonance with his gallantry as a soldier—for he was among the foremost in the memorable fight at Queenston. He was a subaltern in the army on the Niagara frontier, and was in active service during the war, except when a prisoner with the enemy.
    His life is a verification of the adage, that the "brave are always generous." With the characteristic of true generosity, he was alike unostentatious and liberal in his gifts. Misery never appealed to him in vain; and his donations to the suffering poor (which were neither few nor of small amount) acquired additional value from the secret and friendly manner in which they were bestowed. Nor was his charity cramped by the prejudices of soct or country:—the struggling Greek—the wretched Hibernian—were not forgotten in his benefactions.
    Having become a resident among us, when our population did not exceed a tenth of its present numbers, his influence and means were exerted in the formation and support of the many religious humans and literary institutions which elevate the character of our village, and place within reach of its inhabitants many of the refinements of city life.
    His character was properly estimated by our citizens. Notwithstanding the collisions incident to a newly settled place—collisions of which we have unfortunately had a full share—the breath of calumny never even assailed his name. We never saw or heard of a resident of Rochester who ever spoke of him with any other feelings than those of affection and repect; and those feelings were manifested in a striking manner by the large concurse of both sexes—of all ages, parties and sects—which attended his funeral obsequies. Perhaps on no similar occasion was there half the number collected in this place. But a small portion of the throng could gain admission to the church, (St. Paul's,) where the sermon wa preached by the Rev. Mr. Douglass.
    Mr. Smith has held several public trusts—was one of the first officers under our village government—and held the station of Treasurer of the county at the time of his death, and for several years previous. He was 38 years of age—and has left a widow and several children to mourn, in common with our citizrns generally, his untimely loss.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

An accident od a serious nature occured at St. Paul's church yesterday afternoon. Owing to carelessness in constructing a scafold, three men, enployed on the outside of the tower, were precipitated to the earth, a distance of about 25 feet. One, Sheldon, a master-builder, had an arm broken above the wrist, and was otherwise much hurt. Another, Dennis Brady, a mason, received a deep gash by striking with his forehead on a sharp stone but will recover. John Newell, an attendant, became insensible;— his life may be considered in jeopardy. This, with the many simpler and fatal accidents which have occurred about one buildings within the last year or two, evinces a criminal negligence in securing scaffolds; &c.

    He was a native of Connecticut, and the last that remained of twelve persons, who formed the first settlement in the town in which he lived and died. He was a man of strict integrity, a kind and affectionate husband and parent, a good neighbor, a firm friend, a lover of good order, a constant and liberal supporter of the institutions of the Gospel, and a valuable member of society.     He was an established believer in divine revelation; which he read with more than ordinary diligence; upon which, he mediated much, and over which he fervently prayed. He delighted to dwell upon the great plan of salvation by a Redeemer, and manifested a lively interest and an anxious concern for the prosperity of the church of Christ, of which he had long been a zealous, active and useful member, and in which, in compliance with the unanimous desire of his fellow members, he for several years exercised the office of ruling Elder, with credit to himself and satisfaction to the church. In his removal not only his afflicted family, but also but also the church and society to which he belonged, have sustained a severe loss. He lived respected and esteemed; his death is sincerely and deply lamented.—His funeral was attended on the following Sabbath, by a very numerous and solemn assembly.—Communcated.

Inquest. — The body of a man was found in a state of nudity, in the inlet to Seneca Lake, about three miles below this village, on the evening of Wednesday, the 12th inst. It was discovered by some boatmen in their progress up the inlet, and appeared to have been in the water a number of days. About the time the body was found, Mr. Buxton, from Milo, Yates co. a distance of about twenty miles from this village, arrived in town in search of his brother, a young man of about twenty years of age, whose faculties had been materially injured by sickness. It appears that the young man left his brother's house on Sunday, the 8th inst. with the intention of gathering whortle berries; and in attempting to return, it is conjectured he lost his way, and wandered up to the head of the Lake, to which place his friends were enabled to trace him. In his farther attempts to reach home, it is supposed he divested himself of his clothing for the purpose of fording the inlet, in doing which he was drowned. A coroner's inquest was of course held, before which Mr. Buxton recognized the body to be that of his brother, and the verdict accounted for his death substantiated as we have stated above.—Har. Obs.

SAM PATCH.

The Buffalo Repubican furnishes particulars of the advenures of this noted jumper. His second and greatest feat at Niagara Falls, occurred on Saturday, the 17th last. The Republican says—
    "The day was lowering and rainy. However, the number of 300 persons assembled on the Island, to witness the fete: the Canada shore was crowded. To view the platform, erected for the fearless Patch, from the Biddle Stair-Way, did not appear to be grand, as the platform reached only about two thirds the height of the bank; but, to descend to the margin of the water, in the gulf beneath, and then look up at the perpendicular ladder, made you imagine that it would require superhuman powers to accomplish such an enterprise.–Sam ascended the ladder and remained on the top, about ten minutes, resting himself and adjusting his position, for the leap; during which he was repeatedly cheered by the spectators. At length he rose,—every eye was bent intently on him,—he waved his hand, and kissed the star-spangled banner, that floated gracefully o'er his head, and then precipitated himself 'like an arrow' into the flood below ! Twas a matchless and tremendous leap. He very soon reappeared, and swam to the shore with great ease. Then it was, that a painful and unpleasant, yet indescribable sensation was driven from each breast, by the stisfaction which succeaded, on seeing that he was safe. Then it was that the benunbing spell which had reigned a minute or two, from the moment he arose on the platform, was broke by the burst of the voice of congratulations–all rushed forward, (who were below,) to take the Jumping Hero by the hand; and the intrepid Sam spoke to the first "There's no mistake in Sam Patch !" And by the waving of handkerchiefs and the huzzas of the company, there was no mistake, for with one consent they explaimed. "This is the Real Sam Patch !" Sam posseses, what few have arrived at, contempt of danger. He seems to have perfect command of his motions during his swift transition through the air, bacuse, when near the water, he brings his hands suddenly from above his head to below his hips, and strikes the water in such a position as guards his back, his breast and his face, from injury. This jump of Patch is the greatest fete of the kind ever effected by man. He may now challenge the universe for a competitor."
    We learn that Sam Patch contemplates a jump at the Rochester Falls—96 feet.

Stolen Child.—The following particulars, which have been furnished us by Dr. Cyrenius Chapin, we publish in the hope that they may lead to the restoration of the child in question to its parents, from whom it has in all probability been stolen.
    A woman apparently about 25 years of age, calling herself Stevenson, was arrested here, a few weeks since for plundering a house in which she had been employed as a servant. She brought to town with her a girl about six years of age, whom she called her daughter. After her arrest, the child was placed in the poor-house. She manifested much fear and dread of her reputed mother, and to a woman in the poor-house, who has gained her confidence, she states that she is five years of age, that she gave her name as Mary Ann Stevenson, by order of the woman who brought her here, as she had threatened her with some dire calamity, if she gave any other name. She says when at home she lived near a great lake, where there were many houses; her father's name was Hook and her mother was Mrs. Hook; and that her father sometimes laid bricks, and sometimes plastered walls. She can give no farther account of herself, nor does she disclose by what means she came into the possession of the woman, Stevenson. The child has light hair, and rather deep blue eyes; looks cautiously from under her eyebrows, as if in fear, and loth to speak of herself, from an apprehension of punishment.—Her hair and skin have both the dull color contracted by exposure.—Buffalo Jour.

Sam Patch ANOTHER LEAP!
Sam Patch against the World!
"Some things can be done as well as others!"

SAM PATCH,

Having returned from Jumping over Niagara Falls, has determined to convince the citizens of Rochester that he is the real "Simon Pure." by Jumping off the Falls in this village, from the rocky point in the middle of the Genesee River into the gulph below, a distance of 100 feet ? This extraordinary feat will be performed on Friday, the 6th of November next, at 2 o'clock, precisely, in the afternoon. Sam assures the world there can be "no mistake !" He "goes the whole hog !"—and, unlike too many politicians of the present day, he "turns no somersets" in his program ! He goes as straight as an arrow !
    He puts off the jump till after election, out of regard to all parties. Let every man do his duty at the Polls, and Sam will afterwards do his at the Falls !
    Subscription papers will be left at the different taverns, where gentlemen who feel disposed to witness the spectacle, will please subscribe, and pay the money (however small) to the Landlord. → If Sam does not jump, the Landlords will return the money to those who give it—so there is no mistake !

SAM PATCH

Performed according to promise, the feat of Jumpig over the Falls in the Genesee at this place. The crowd collected was greater than ever before witnessed in Rochester. The high banks and the buildings generally on each side and the flats below the Falls, were crowded for a couple of hours before the period designated for the feat. It is probably within bounds to say there was present between six and eight thousand spectators. The point from which he jumped is about 100 feet above the level of the water below. The jump was all that could have been anticipated. Sam was clad in a close white suit—he was but a few seconds under the water, and his re-appearance was hailed with shouts from the thousands who witnessed in breathless suspense his perilous feat. Large as was the concoarse, we have not heard of the slightest accident or breach decorum.

    SAM'S BEAR, (at 3 o'clock precisely,) will make the same jump and follow his master, thus showing conclusively that "Some things can be done as well as others." Moreover, Sam hopes that all the good people who attend this astonishing exhibition, will contribute something towards remunerating him for the seemingly hazardous experiment.

SAM. PATCH—FATAL LEAP!

Dauntless, he he stood upon the dizzy height, And gazed all fearlessly upon his cold, deep Grave, and dared to die!
    This singularand presumptuous being has, indeed, made his "last jump." Yesterday, at the hour appointed, in handbills which had been previously circulated, headed "SAM'S LAST JUMP," the banks of the river, on either side below the falls, for near half a mile, were crowded with spectators. Sam appeared amid the shouts and hurras of the expectant assemblage. A stage had been erected twenty-five feet higher than the brink of the precipice, making the height about 120 feet, from which he was to leap. He had before jumped from the precipice without injury, and now determined to prove by experiment, (in his own language) that "some things can be done as well as others." ascended the stage, and was again greeted by the cheers of the spectators. Sam addressed those immediately below him for a few moments, in a language that seemed to say he half anticipated the result of his rashness. After adjusting his dress, he bowed to the vast assemblage, first upon the one side of his unenviable station, then on the other, and deliberately leaping off, was for a moment in mid-air, and then engulphed in the abyss beneath. We stood near where he struck, and for a moment after he left the stageon, heard not a word. Each heart beat with a dread suspense, and every eye was strained to behold his rising; but they saw him not, for the water still engulphed its victim. At length, when not a wake or sign gave further clue to hope, the half-formed shout of joy died into breathing murmurs of "He's dead !" "He's gone !" and in a moment the vast crowd knew full well its truth, and turned half aside to conceal the horror that they felt. Thus has Sam Patch, who had rashly, but till now uninjured, sported with the law of nature, given us an example that vain and mortal man may not trifle with bounds prescribed by an Omiscient God.
    We understand that the body has not yet been found.

SHOCKING EVENT !——SAM'S JUMP !

Thousand collected yesterday to witness Sam Patch's "last Jump," as the bills expressed it— an awful leap it was! He never rose with life!
    A stage, 20 feet high, had been erected on the edge of the falls, which made a descent of about 120 feet to the surface of the water to the chasm below Sam apparently lost his balance–struck the water in a sideling manner—and disappeared to rise no more! Such a shocking result had a strong sffect on the immense crowd. After waiting in breathless anxiety for some time, the multitude dispersed with feelings which can be better imagined than described. The corpse is not yet found.

LOOK OUT !

A negro man, about 40 years of age, with a short jacket, appeared in Pittsford on Friday evening, with a handsome whitish female child of about 5 years, which he said was his. Suspicion rested on him, and he was pursued next morning; but no trace has yet been discovered of him, The child called him Jack; was familiar with him; but was prevented by him from saying much about where they came from. When attempting to say any thing on that subject or about her mother, the fellow checked her rudely—told her she lied—bade her hold her tomgue—land some times beat her.—He said her mother was dead—she said no, she was not dead—but lived in some street, supposed to be in New York. They had a gold neck chain, two or three yards long. The girl said this was given her by her mother; but he said it was given to him by a person for driving a stage, &c. The singularity of the circumstance, it is hoped, will excite some inquiry on the subject. Further information may be had of Capt. Janes, Pittsford.

For the Observer,
"SAM PATCH'S LAST JUMP."

This was the bold announcement of that fatal jump, which carried the subject of this notice, from this world to eternity. His doom is now sealed. I, among others, went to view the spectacle, as heedless and as careless of his awful daring, as any one that saw him. It was his "last jump." The wide abyss was opened, and he, alive, passed from the view of thousands, into the yawning gulf. This exploit would have been extolled in shouts by the gazing multitude, had he risen in safety from the abyss; but an incensed God had decided otherwise.

WRITTEN FOR THE GEM.
THE LAST LEAP OF PATCH.

He acsended the scaffold, he mounted on high,

Full determin'd to leap, tho' in th' leap he should die:

He view'd, but with calmness, the torrent run wild,

O'er Nature's huge rocks, which in grandour are piled.

He bade all farewell, the world and its ties,

Now a moment suspected 'twixt earth and skies;

But behold ! in the next he forever is lost,

Where the huge foaming billows, like pebbles are toss'd.

Urg'd omward by cheers, he bid all adieu,

He sprang from his summit, swift as lightning he flew,

From the scaffold erected, the height of his pride,

To th dark gulf below—the deep foaming tide.

Genesee's raging waters, now over him roll,

A grave for his body, but not for his soul;

Light was zephyr, on which it wafted away,

From the world's troubl'd scenes, to eternity's day.

OLIO.

SAM PATCH.

Strange rumors about this man are in circulation. It is asserted that he is yet in being—having secreted himself behind the sheet of water at the Falls, until darkness favoured his escape. A notice was posted at the entrance of the Arcade yesterday, stating that he would return this forenoon, and recount his adventures at Acker's Eagle Tavern. Few, we apprehend, who witnessed his descent, will credit the reports, even for a moment. The subject is rather too serious for hoaxing.
    N. B. So confident are some in the existance of Patch, that we are informed a bet of $100 was yesterday made by a citizen (not generally rash in such matters) that he is alive, and will be produced in Rochester before the 1st of January !

Sam Patch was for several years a mule spinner in Messrs. T. Greene & Son's factory, in Pawtucket. He commenced jumping there, from the bridge and the yellow factory. Subsequently he went to the Patterson factories, where his jumping attracted much attention, and he gave up mule spinning for this idle employment, until his vaulting ambition o'erle pt itself, and the loss of his life has been the consequence.

DIED,

At his residence in Rodney, Mississippi, on the evening of the 30th September last, of bilious fever, Mr. Horace Clarke, brother of Mr. Franklin Clarke, of Penfield, aged 30 yeasr. Mr. Clarke was a native of the state of New York, and for some time a resident of this place, from whence, in 1821, he removed to Mississippi, and embarked in the mercantile business. Thus a young man, who had a few superioura while scarcely in the prime of manhood, has in consequence of his enterprising spirit, fallen a vistim to a loathsome disease. He has left many afflicted relatives and friends to mourn his untimely death, to whom, however, it must be peculiarly gratifying to learn, that among the numerous acquaintances which he, in his business, necessarily formed, he was universally respected and esteemed, and his worth properly appreciated.

Died at Pavilion, Genesee county, on the morning of the 24th inst., Hannah, consort of Harmon J. Betts, esq., aged 35 years. Thus has flown to high Heaven a spirit beloved by all. In her, the poor ever found a friend and benefactor; her heart was ever open to their wants, and ever ready to alleviate their distresses. She has left a husband and numerous friends and acquantances to mourn the loss from the circle in which she moved and scattered blessings around her. Her complaint was the consumption, of the most alarming nature. But with christian fortitude and composure, she looked with pleasure on the hour which was to dissolve her union with this world of trouble.
