SiiAMKtUL Abandonment.—The Lawrenceburg Register Kales that on Tuesday last three persons were passing | u'uwn the river in an open flat-boat, peihaps going below ! is iinioh and load her, when one of the party was attacked v* fth cholera and died. His two comrades landed thei Ii boat at the mouth of the creek two miles below that place ! and deserted her, leaving their dead companion in the j boat ft prey to flies and worms, and got on board the Madison pocket. Some persons from Petersburg came over and buried the body oil the bank of the ri\er just below the creek. The man who would thus desert a dead com-rade, deserves to travel to the end of time without cheer cr companion, and to die among strangers without friend ! or sympathy to assuage the pangs ol death.
