Death of a .

--The Baltimore Exchange, of Monday, says:

‘ About the time of the arrival of the train from Washington last night, a very respectably dressed man, who had alighted from the train, was seen to stagger and fall upon the platform. A crowd immediately gathered around him, and a vice-policeman procured a hack and conveyed him to the Western district police station. He had been there but a few minutes when he expired. Upon an examination of his effects, it was ascertained that his name was Mayrick Beauford Field. He had a letter of introduction from the Duke of Malmesbury to President Lincoln, two medals from Queen Victoria for meritorious service in the Crimean War, a pass from Gen. Scott, signed by an aid de-camp, giving the bearer permission to pass the lines of the United States army, a gold watch and a very neatly bound diary.
