—The Philadelphia Nora American says "It 1141411111 pro
bable from present appearsnees thatt honest Congress will
pass bills for the organisation of the embryo Territories of
!tirade. peseta', Arisonla, and Neosho. Wises Minnesota
shall be admitted into the Union the number of SWAIN
will be thirty two.' ► Oregon and Washington :will raise
the number to thirty fear. and Nebraska and New Mexieo
to thirty six; and the four new Territories when admitted,
latrease the (droll) to forty. Should'Texu and California
each be divided into three States, as Is proposed, tbe num
ber would be raised:to forty-six. Then - there Is the pro
posed State of Superior or Itasca, making the number
forty-seven. We have omitted Utah; but if that Territory
be admitted as a State, the number would be forty-eight.
This number would be reached without any division of
Nebraska, Oregon, or Washington. But the former is
large enough for its or coven States, Orogen for three, ind
Washington for two. These calculations serve to convey
an idea of the rapid growth of our republic, the immense
extent of our unoettled territory, and the importance of
the legislation affecting it."
—A most singular trial has lately taken place In Mont
real. Dr. Jean Baptiste Pheophille Dorton, a person of
gentlemanly appearance, of standing sod poeitl,n in
1110eiety, and in the p ion of wealth to the amount of
upwards of $9O 000, was charged with stealing silver
spoons, two promissory notes for $lOO, a gold-headed cane
and six books from Doetor L Donan, (whom he
►ttended in his last sickness,) on the 20th of June, 1851,
near:y six years ago, and the chief witnesses were two
brothers of the prisoner, who saw the goods taken. The
accused said that the charge was the mink of a conspira
cy to ruin him, but the jury, after an absence of Ave
minutes, found him guilty. When the verdit was announc
ed the prisoner staggered in the dock, and was ashy pal.
The sentence has not yet been pronounced.
—lnteresting intelligence has been received from the
Plate survey of the Okefenoke swamp, which covers nearly
• fourth of the map of Georgia. The great swamp does
not appear to be a swamp after all So far from being ha.
pedwi by water, the expedition suffered severely from
want of it, and were compelled to sink three wells for
drinking and cooking pommies. The anderwood also was
found of almost fabulous thieknees, through which they
were compelled to cut their way with knives, whereby
they were so much delayed as to be in danger of starvation.
their supplies beilig exhausted. The most erroneous opin
lOUS have been entertained of the extent and nature of
the whole'region. No published map gives any idea of its
geography. The survey will prove a fortunate venture.—
The submerged portion is found to be easily drained,
whereby thousands of sere, of the most valuable cotton
lands in the South will be reclaimed.
--The will of Miu Elisabeth Gelson, daughter of the
late Jnn Gsloon, merchant, of New York, was offered for
probate a few days since. After making various bequests
to her relatives, Ac , to the amount of $15,000, the will
distribute• $16.000 among- missionary and other charitable
societies, at follows To the American Board of Commis
sioners I,r Foreign Missions, $5.000; Board of Missions
of the General Assembly of the Presbyteries Church, (at
Philadelphia,) for the promotion of Domestic Missions,
sa,oon, Board of Fiticativn, same Church, $2,000; Ameri•
can Traot Society, New York, $l,OOO. A handsome dona
tion is also made to the American Bible Society.
—As the steamer Commonwealth came alongside the
wharf at New Londoo, Ct., on the 27th nit, en the pass
age from Norwich to New York, a lady walked overboard,
and would have been drowned but for the hoops in her
dress, which rendered the same somewhat balloonish, and
withal answered the purpose of a more oomplicated life
preserver. The night was very dark, and it was giearly
half an hour before she soul." be extracted from her peril
ous situstlon, daring which time the hoops were sualcien

it is stated that during the quarter ending the 31st
March, about !000 dead letters have been opened at the
Dead 1.-tter Office, containing money amounting in the
aggregate to over $11,000; and already -eights of
this am-'unt hap been restored to the owners. The esti
mates of the department of the whole number of dead
letters received in former years, under the high postage
system, was three millions and a half. Under the low
postage prepaid system it does not exceed three millions a
year, although the number of letters mailed is far greater.
--John Miller, aged twenty eight years, died at Indiana
polis on last Friday night. The Journal films a brief his
tory of his sad ease. ❑e . was born in Dayton, Ohio—was
left an orphan with a large estate, and to his own guidance
—beeatne a "fast young MLR." and rapidly spent a fortune
which was eounted by:tens of thousands. Ile kept a circle
of dashing young fellows about him until his money was
gone, who then deserted and left him. He sought Indiaug
polls for a home, and there, in some menial capacity, lived
for. time, and died In a strange garret, frieulless and
alone.

of this idea of outside rascality being most happily filar

tion of Mr /10/brook, Speeded Matt Agent for New York,
who immediately cammenced an investigation, whieh re
sulted to developing the fact -that the Poet Master at

••We have satisfied ourselves by pinions' ezaminatioa,
