OFT on Front Street in the centre and business part
of the town is every way calculated for comfort and
convenience he structure is of brick and stone and
built in a faithful and substantial manner. The
building presents an imposing and elegant appear
ance. Itbeing raised higher than any other in the
town is made conspicuous from all parts Of the vii
ase and when approached by water or land is
is plainly seen towering above all others, presenting
a lofty and splendid appearance; adding much to
the beauty and responsibility ofthe place.
The interior is finished in approved modern style,
and udciously arranged for comfort and convent
ence and affording convenient and splendid apart
ments for the accommodations of families, and other
boar1ers Besides kitchens, cellars and other con-
veniencies it contains large parlors with smaller
rooms for private use: "a lodging rooms, splendid
dining room, so feet long and Is feet wide, capable
of seating 100 persons at table. The ceiling and
walls are finished with stucco IN a neat and work
manlike manner. The large rooms have cornices
and Gentle pieces also of succo, which give them a
very beautiful appearance. The chimney pieces are
of Thomaston marble from the quarry OF COL
The house contains all so rooms

commodating 40 horses, with carriage houses &c.

In conclusion, this edice is just what our village
has for long time, very much needed and Mr. FL
lott Justly deserves the united thanks of our ct
zens, and the gratitude Of the public, for his indefat-
igable exerons in projecting and completing this ell
egant and convenient House, so admirably adapted
to the wants of the travelling community.
We understand Mr. f proposes calling it the Ell

THE LATE ELECTION.

We are always willing to acknowledge defeat.
And whilst we had hoped, and not without very
faer ing encouragement, for glorious victory, on
the tenth of the present month"; we are in truth
PEELED to admit that we were badly beaten-enrey
routed for this year. horse foot and Dragons
We acknowledge it fianky-and hope the locos will
do the same next fal-without prevarication, or mem
tai reservation.
That we are fairly beaten, however, is quite an
other thng-that remains TO be shown yet; and If 1t
can be clearly ard positively shown that the wings
of Maine have been FAIRLY and no MORALLY de-
feaed, then we shall hold ourselves in readiness to
admit that likewise. We do not dispute but that all
the strength of both parties was out We doubt not,
that the wings threw as large vote, as they could
under the circumstances But as regards the loco
focos we have the strongest reason to believe, that
they threw more votes in some places than they or
any body else for them, can find legal voters. In
stances Of corruption of this kind will yet be brought
to gh. which will shock the feelings ofevery inte-
gent, and honest freeman!
It is well known 10 all who have any knowledge
knowledge of our location, that the people of this
State are literally surrounded, and overwhelmed by
the unparalleled exerons Of the inquisoria agents
of the loco-foco Chief executive,-fghting in the
present instance, with unheard of desperation, to
sustain themselves, and their illustrous leaders, in
their notorious and infamous system of public plum
der at tho expense and everlasting disgrace oil the
nation,-cheated and imposed upon by these public
bood-suchers and tyrannical despots.

ARMED STEAM SHIPS. The mise, ably
exposed condition of our coast to the at
lacks of foreign armed steam vessels has
been already remarked upon by US. To
what an extent the seaboard may be raw
aged by them, can be judged from glance
at the present strength Of Great Britain in
that way. That power has the following
named steam vessels.
OftlIe first class, the Cyclops and the
Gorgon; of the second class the Dee, Me-
dea, Rhadamanthus, Phoenix; Salamander
and Messenger; of the third class, Her.
mes, Firebrand, Firehy, Megara, Spitfre.
Volcano, and Flamer; of the fourth class.
Blazer, Tartarus Columbia and Pluto; OF
the fifth class, Lightning, Meteor, Conf
ance Echo, Alban, Carron, African, Com
ct. Total27.
Now it will be remembered that these
were built or in active operation before
the experiment of navigating across the At
lantic by steam, was determined. That trial
being now satisfactorily consummated, the
immediate pelicy Of the British Govern
ment will be to multiply her armed steam
vessels so as to render her force in that ca
pacity consentanCous to the new order of
things; and the attitude Of Canadian af
fairs, will doubtless expedite her determine
ed action on the subject. France too will
have !.er floating armaments multiplied:
she has already bold nucleus to work
upon.
AS wise and prudent people we should
accommodate ourselves to this new natural
position We should not be behind the
age in this improvement, much less should
we be behind our safety. An enlightened
Congress owes it to the Nation, to take
the earliest steps for the protection of our
coast. If the framework of dozen steam
vessels were laid al once so much the bet
ter. We should not count for the contin-
uance of peace on the iorbearance of for
elm nations, but on ourselves being pre-
pared for war We are now III a bad state,
should that calamity occur:--an ex-
posed coast com nercc most lameiy
protected by meagre naval force; and
10, 900 >avages ready to unbury the Ratchet
and pounce down on undefended settlcs

Revolving Murder at .New Orleans
On the morning of Sept. 7th, great excite
ment was caused by the discovery OF the
corpse of white man under the flooring
of a back room in disrepntable boarding
house in Girot street, kept by Mrs Anne
DOYLE. This murder appears to have been
almost as atrocious as the Greenacre affair
in London. The head was entirely served
from the body, the lower extremltles had
likewise suffered amputation, the right loot
was completely lisembered from the leg,
and the left knee nearly served IRON the
thigh. Several stabs, wounds and bruises
were sufficient to produce death. The
subseouen! mut1ation which the victim had
undergone, must therefore doubtless have
been inflicted for the purpose ofaccommoda-
ting the body to the narrow space IN winch
it was packed.-His name was Charles
Goodlet or Gotlief, and he was recognized
as having taken his passage the preceding
day on board the steamer Gov. D'dge tor
St.Loujs, where his trunk was found. lie
is supposed to be man-of.war's man, from
Pensacola. This is another added to the
black catalogue Of atrocities recently COM
mitted in New Orleans. 1t is nscertalned
ahat Gotlief the evening before his death,
had drunk with another man tea deeply
drugged with opium. traces of which latter
were found in the stomach. Mrs Doyle,
the woman of the house who was found the
next morning witha bundle ofbloody clothes,
has been arrested, and several OF her BOAR
ders.
