DIED

At the Onondaga Castle, in this town Mixton, one of the Chiefs of the Onondaga tribe of Indians, aged about 53. It may be said of Mixton that he was scarcely inferior to the celebrated Schenandoa, in strength of mind and as possessing those qualities which adorn the human heart. He has for more than 30 years been a warm and decided friend to the white people. In the late war he took an active part, particularly at the battle of Chippewa. For a number of years he has had the perfect confidence of the white people indeed, so great was the reliance placed in his integrity that he has frequently had credit of our merchants to the amount of upwards of 1,200 dollars. Within the last few years he had been in the habit of becoming responsible for most of the tribe to obtain their clothing and such articles as they needed to make them comfortable during the inclement season, and, of paying when their money should be received from the State in June. In this way his account at a single store have been from 800 to 1,200 dollars. He kept all his accounts with the several individuals of the tribe by marks, and such was his accuracy, that he seldom was detected in an error. His death will be a great loss to the tribe, and sincerely regretted by his white friends - Onondaga Reg.

SEVERE WEATHER - The weather for some time past has been extremely cold and windy. Lake Erie is closed up at this end, which is quite unusual so early in the season.
The Niagara River is frozen over from Lewiston to Youngstown, and the channel is so obstructed by ice, as to cause a rise of water, which has carried away the Store House of Porter, Barton & Co. At Lewiston, and that of Messrs. Kirby & Grant, and one other at Queenston. This river has not been frozen over before as we have been informed, since the winter of 1807 or ‘8.
Since the above was in type, we learn that every building situate near the water, from Queenston to Lake Ontario, has been swept away. - Buffalo Pat.
