I often examined her the best I could, and she had no pains, no sickness, no aches, of any kind, and from her own account, and from all that I was able to learn she was in good health and all the while in fine spirits. The intellect and the mind seemed to be perfectly good, only that she did not seem to know where she was all the time. At length one of the children said to me that Aunt Phillis was getting cold, and on examining her found it even so the extremities were cold still she took her meals regular, and did not complain of anything, and the only change that I recollect of, was that she slept more than usual. The coldness increased for two days, when she became as cold as a dead person. Her breathing began at length to shorten, and grew shorter and shorter till she had ceased to breathe.

Death closed in upon her like going into a soft, sweet sleep, and for two minutes it was difficult tc tell whether she was breathing or not. There was no contortion, no struggle, no twisting of the muscles, but after death she might have still been taken on a slight examination to hate been in a deep sleep. So passed away Phillis the only natural death 1 ever witnessed. Xsakville Medical Journal, vexed question Bourbon blood in the veins of Rev. Eleazer Williams.

The two cases, however, differ in this, that while one was pertinaciously obtruded upon the public, the other shuns publicity. Our editorial suction pump has only brought us a very positive rumor of facts, but not the facta themselves. The story, as we get it, and we have no doubt of its substantial truth, is this The late Capt ark, N. and tbe Joseph Beck, so long known by our maritime Ixmdon. folks as keeper of the Long Island Light, in our harbor, on his death-bed, last summer, disclosed to his family that he was a son of Gustaves III, King of Sweden, and a younger brother ot thac remarkable knight-errant of a king, the late Gustavus IV, An unknown person, who had been seen at various times to regard him with great interest, and who was present at the time of death, left in the next European steamer for Sweden.

Within a short time the only daughter of Capt Beck, a very intelligent and accomplished lady, now the wife of Abel T. Hayden, one of the pilots in our harbor, has been sent lor from a high quarter in that country, and supplied with funds tor the voyage, to be restored to the possession of property and titles belonging to her father, which were confiscated at the time when his brother, Gustavus was dethroned. Mr Hayden and his wife, it is said, will take their departure tor Sweden in a few days, Bangor with perfect Ky-Warranted FIRE AND The subscriber damage by Fire, sound and reliable upon Lives, in that they are the Office No. 2 JauStj tf ARB J.

We ere indebted to Senator Ruggles, and to AVm. Bennett, Esq. the Warden, for copies of the Reports of the Warden nnd Inspectors of this institution, for the year ending Dec. 1st, 1851, From the for mer, we learn that 42 convicts were received during the year, 14 discharged by expiration of sentence, and 5 pardoned leaving 92 in the in stitution, on the 1st of Dec.

last past. Of these 92 convicts, 30 were employed in shoemaking, 17 in the lime quarry, 17 as wheelwrights, 11 in the smith's shop, 3 as and the balance as cooks, waiters, washers, Two only were in solitary confinement. The crimes for which they were committed were for larceny 57, murder 4, (2 sentence commuted,) manslaughter 4, arson 4, burglary 4, forgery 2, rape 3, adultery 2, attempt to ravish, 4, attempt to kill 2, embezzlement 1, robbing the mail 1, breaking jail 1, maiming 1, receiving stolen goods 1. The whole number of convicts received since 1824, has been 1121 of whom 184 have been pardoned out, 28 only died in prison, 4 removed to Insane Hospital, 8 escaped and not retaken. 1 discharged on writ of error, and 804 discharged on expiration of sentence.

The earnings of the prisi ners in the several departments have amounted, during the past year, to $9270, and the expenses of the Prison (exclusive of salaries) $7794 leaving a balance of $1475. The cost of subsistence was $1068 more than last year, owing to the rise in prices and increase of convicts; $4668 have been spent for finishing the wall and enlarging the blucksmilh shop, and other repairs and improvements, and for a new fire-engine costing $1200. To meet the latter payment a lot oi land adjoining the Prison was disposed oi for $1110, agreeably to authority from the Legislature. The Warden bbjs that owing to the increase of convicts, some in-door employment must be provided for about 25 more persons, making additional shops or enlargements necessary. The prison library now contains over 200 volumes, many of which have been donated by benevolent inoividuals.

The Warden says that as the desire for reading increases among th convicts the necessity for punishments decreases. The punishments in the prison have remarkably decreased. In 1848, with only 6 convicts, 245 days of solitary confinement were inflicted while last year, with 69 convicts, but 55 days were thus spent and yet the prisoners were more industrious and better disposed than in any former year. The Inspectors commend the kind and paternal mode of government adopted. The free exercise of the pardoning power has a beneficial influence on the conduct of the prisoners.

The inspectors recommend an appropriation of $3000 for a new workshop, and for inj to W8! his cus out unt the mu cou mu san I feri de; er pro Juc but pro san ski ord ere 1 gro Pai inc len sto A Girl who is well a serve in a small family as seam fied t0 have care of children stress, and GOOI) I' AllMb are tor salr a a er 7 miles from with good buildingsTand eaerv w-fv excellent Farms. dirable miles Fangor, 25 good stand for affair ci tyofaboirt equalifoth lu A desirable property A eTCr-v rcsU'U secure a good purchadfP Un made soon sion gicn now.

Progress op Russia I sit on the shore and wait lor the wind is a favorite national Russian motto, and it has never been better exemplified than in the long enduring patience and watchful perseverance which that government has exhibited in its efforts to appropriate the valley of the Araoor, first made known alter the middle of the filteenth century. Since the commencement of the Chinese re bellton, Russia has obtained from the einbar aassments of the Court of Pekin, a treaty yielding to her the navigation of the Amoor, and she has already converted that permission into an absolute possession ot the whole course of the river and an enormous tract of country, about 1000 miles in length, and in some parts as much as 500 in breadth. But, in addition to the mere extension of territory, she has ac quiiedthe exclusive ownership ot the Yablou-not Mountains, from which her subjects have already procured large quantities ot gold and silver, by the rudest methods, and which are said to surpass in mineral wealth, anythin, that has yet been discovered in Calilornia or Australia. And, what is to her of far greater importance, 6he has gained a to the Pac fi ocean, in a temperate climate. The Amoor, which has a course of 2540 miles, is formed by the lunttion ot two rivers, one of which rises in Mongols, and the other has its source in the Siberian province of Irkutsk, at no great distance from the Lake ol Baikal, the waters of which flnv by the Yenisei into the Frozen Ocean.

The most import ant of its tributaries is the Songari, which rises in the mountains to the north ot Corea, and is almost as noble a river as itself. Cannon and stores are already transported down the Amoor by steamboats, and sent from its mouth to the Russian possessions in America and it may at no distant day, be one of the great channels of Asiatic and European commerce, for the water communication between the Baltic Hnd Caspian has long been complete, and according to Cot terell only 400 versts, rr two hundred miles ol additional canal will be required to connect the Pacific and Caspian. It is a marvel even in the history of Russian diplomacy and Russian success, that at a mo ment when she is an object ot jealousy, and a cause of alarm to every European and Asiatic people, and is actually at war with three great empires, she should have been able to have secured so valuable an acquisition as the Amoor, and at the same time so nearly to complete a gigantic system of inland communication, 8000 miles in length, without more than a vague rumor of her design having reached the enlightened and far-seeing nations of the West. Should they suffer her to consolidate. this her la6t conquest, they will soon discover that the course ot commerce has been changed, the balance ot pow er altered, and that the giant whom they vainly imagined to be still fettered by the Sound and the Bosphorus, has shaken off his chains, and can dely with impunity the navies of England, France and the United Slates.

An iron necklace has been thrown across the Isthmus; the bans are already published; and the bridal party will leave this city on Monday next, February 5, to perform the august ceremony.

A meeting of citizens was held at City Hall on Saturday evening, to consider of the expo diency of petitioning for authority to loan th city credit to the Penobscot Railroad Company, to the amount of $150,000.

The meeting was called to order by Josiah Towle, upon whose motion Hon. E. L. Hamlin, was called to the Chair; and C. Roberts, was chosen Secretary.

Mr. Hamlin made some remarks selling forth the advantages of the road, now partially constructed from Bangor to Milford on the shore route, and its importance to the city, and was followed by lathaniel Wilson, of Orono, on the same aide, and P. B. Mills, in opposi ion Samuel P. Dinsmore, then offered the following resolutions, which, after remarks by Messrs Dinsmore, John A.

Peters, Henry E-Prentiss, George W. Ladd, Thomas A. Whi'e and Albert Holton, were passed and ordered to be published. Resolved, That the future growth and prosperity of this city depends in a great measure upon the growth and prosperity of the country lying above Bangor in the Penobscot and Aroostook vnllies. Resolved That tbe several railroads already commenced and intended to connect this city ith the upper wateis of the Penobscot and St.

John, should be hastened to a completion as soon as practicable. Resolved, That in the opinion of this meeting authority should be granted for the city to loan its credit to the Penobscot Railroad Company, in the sum of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. The city scrip not to be delivered except in such manner, time and conditions as will make the city perfectly safe, and ensure the completion and furnishing of said road without any turther aid from the city and not until the city is amply secured by a first mortgage upon the franchise and all the property of said company, both real and personal, and not until said Railroad Company shall execute and deliver a release for all damages which may be occasioned by the Sowing of said road in consc dam at Treat's falls, which may be quence of any erected for manufacturing purposes. Resolved, That the Representatives of Bangor be requested to frame a bill which shall embrace the provisions and restrictions in the third Resolve, and which shall give ample security to the city. Encouragb Your Own, is a good and honorable business principle, which applies not only'to the protection of American mechanics and manufacturers generally against foreign competition but to the ordinary business relations in our towns and cities.

We hold it to be the duty, of our citizens, for instance, to patronize regular established concerns in our midst whose conductors have cast thsir lot here, bear their portion of the public burdens, and intend to do business in an honorable man ner and for no-more than a fair living profit in preference to bestowing custom upon tran-'sient, travelling establishments or auction-rooms where goods are imported from abroad to be run off, sometimes at a sacrifice, but oftener at profit, in order to raise money for some pressing emergency. The rule we intend to advocate as a general one, of course, having its proper exceptions. But all reflecting persons, ladies as well as gentlemen, who have money to spend for supplying family wants, will perceive the justness and expediency of the cause we have indicated, and should be willing to give their custom to fair dealing traders who are permanently established among us and to do what they can to discourage the obtaining of supplies at auction-rooms and establishments about which they know nothing, and of whom, after they are closed, the) have no remedy for damaged goods or bad Argains. It is altogether safer, as well as more just, to encourage your own. Police Court, February 34.
