    • Death of Old Colonists - Our obituary today records the death of two very old colonists, namely, Messrs. John Barrett, and Capt. E. F. Chalmers, of Sayes' Court, Bagdad. Mr. Barrett arrived in this colony in the ship Brixton, many years ago, and he is, we believe, the last colonist remaining who came by that vessel. He has been in business for a long time in this city, and is father of Hugh Sunderland Barrett, Esq. . . . Both gentlemen will be regretted by a wide circle of friends.
