1t becomes our mournfu duty to record the death
of the Right Reverend JAMES KEMP, d. D. late
Bishop Of The Protestant Episcopal Church in MARY.
land. and Provost of the University of MARYLAND.
who departed th, life yesterday at about quarter
past o'clock. z. NJ The meekness with which this
distinguished divine bore his high faculties, had en-
deared him in peculiar manner to those whom Pro.
vidence had placed under bis pastoral charse.wlilst
his uniformly unassuming department, and upright
conduct rendered him the object ofprofound respect
on the part Of those with whom he acted in the gen.
eral intercourse of life. As the head of the Church
which he called to preside in this Diocese,
his loss will be long and deeply lalnented-as pr-
vate individual, those who were bound to him by the
closest ties of relationship and friendship, cam
alone form estimate Of the extent OF their beveav
ement.


The circumstances attending the death of this
estinabie and distinguished individual are such as
to render particular distressing. AS he was reur-
ming from Philade pha, where I've had been to assist
in the conservation of Bishop Onderdonk,in passing
over the Peninsula between the two bays the driver
of the coach in which he was, being intoxicated as
is supposed. attempted to pass another carriage and
upset the coach, by which means several OF the pas
sensers were severely injured, and among Others
Bishop KEMP received the hurt, which has terminal
ed in his death.


Scarcely day passes that we do not hear some
new account OF the outrageous conduct Of Coach
men, and their careless driving. 1t is high time
that the strong arm Of the law should interpose, aud
punish in an exemplary manner these offenders
against public safety.
