DEATH OF MR. LAMAN BLANCHARD.-It is our most painful duty to announce the sudden death of Mr. Laman BLANCHARD. He had lately suffered a severe domestic affliction; and his unceasing anxiety during the progress of the long and harrassing illness in his family, which terminated fatally, had so injured his own health, that fits ensued, which finally led to his death. He died about half-past one o'clock this (Saturday) morning, and has left four orphan children to lament his loss. Mr. BLANCHARD is well known in periodical literature. His graceful verses, his lively stories, his wit that never had a touch of malice, are known to many readers. There, perhaps, never was a man who had a readier pen. A poem, an essay, a witty paragraph, seemed to spring spontaneously from his brain. There was an amenity in everything he did; and, indeed, how could it be otherwise, seeing that he himself was the very impersonation of kindness and goodness of heart. Mr. BLANCHARD was long in the service of literature. He was a member of the press in various ways, for more than twenty years; beginning young, and fighting an upward fight throughout-bravely, independently, without envy or uncharitableness-until he reached the age of 42, when he died. We may fearlessly assert that no man ever ran the same career, in the same circumstances, who left so few enemies, and so many, many friends. These few facts are addressed to strangers. His independence, his perseverance, his untiring kindness, and his many sterling and amiable qualities, need no demonstration to his acquaintance or his friends.-Examiner. [Mr. BLANCHARD committed suicide after his wife became insane.]
