Deaths.
We have received a letter informing us that Mr. Donald C. Carr, the eldest son of Mr. John Carr, of Lot 12, was accidentally killed near St. Charles, Missouri, on the 11th of November last. Mr. Carr, it appears, was standing by while a number of men were hoisting an iron beam used in constructing a bridge over the Missouri. The ropes broke, and Mr. Carr with twenty others was precipitated into the river. Fifteen men, besides our unfortunate countryman, were killed by the falling of the beam. Mr. Carr was 25 years of age, and a very estimable young man. His remains were buried by the Odd Fellows of St. Charles, papers being found on his person which showed that he was a member of that Society. We deeply sympathise with the parents of this promising young man in their deep grief.
