STEAMSHIP PRESIDENT.—Greid anxiety
is manifested in our eastern cities as to the
fate of the steamship President, which left
Now York on the 11th of. March last for
Liverpool. A list of the names of the passen
gers has been published, among which we
see that of the Rev. GEORGE G. COWMAN,
formerly pastOr of the Methodist Episcopal
church in this borough, and more. recently
chaplain to the United States Senitte.

residing some years in this country, ( where

they would that of a brother. .
