DEATH OF john JACOB AsToR.-We
announced, yesterday, the death of Mr..
Aslor. He died of old age, in N. York.
on Wednesday morning, about 9 O'Clock,
in the S5th year of his age. Mr.. Astor
was born in the village of Waldrop, near
the ancient city of Heidelberg, in the
Grand Duchy of Baden, Germany in
July, 1863, of humble parents. In March
of the year 1884, he arrived in Baltimore,
as steerage passenger, from England,
after lcng voyage. His whole proper
ty then consisted of seven flutes, and a
few articles of merchandise These he
sold, and engaged as a clerk with Robert
Browne, who at that time, was engaged
in the fur business. From this small be-
ginning he went on to increase his for
tune, until, at his death, he was not worth
less than twenty millions of dollars.-Pat

GEN. TAYLoR's PRINCIPLEs.-The
Maysville Eagle speaks Of another letter
which is later than the Peter Sken Smith
letter so much commented upon:
1--WE understand from gentleman
who saw the letter during the sittings of
the Democratic State Convention at
Frankfort, that prominent Democrat in
Lewis county has received a letter from
Gen. Taylor upon the subject of the
Presidency, in which he states that he
will accept the nomination of either
Wing or Democratic National Conven-
ton. The Campaign Flag alludes to
the same letter. We should like to see
it published"

Later from snnln he.

Intelligence has been received at St.
Louis, from Santa Fe to the 25th Feb,
of an important character.
Col. Rails regiment of about 800 men
stationed at El Passo, had been attacked
by 1000 Mexicans, and after severe bat
tie in which eighty of our men fell the
former were defeated.
AS soon as the intelligence reached
Santa Fe, Gen. Price with all the men
at his disposal, went to the assistance of
Col Rails.
Col. Easton's command was at Lirna-
ia, some distance from Ell Passo.

Corporation Election.

On, next Monday week, the Corporate
Election for this town will be held. We
see that the Eagle of last week is dis
posed to find fault with the present Coun.
Gil and wishes "radical change" The
ground. upon which it argues, is this
the council has not seen proper to ap-
propriate money to the repair of our al
leys and streets. For our part we think
it the part of wisdom. Until the debt of
the Corporation is paid, as little Of the
funds as possible should be laid out for
any other purpose. However, we know
some of the present Councilmen, who
would gladly lay aside the honors oftheil
station and we have no doubt that the
others have the same desire.
But for all this, we are opposed to 6
"rad,ca" change. We think that the
citizens of the town are perfectly willing
to put up with a conservative" Council

Kings flight, and the Republics birth.
No republic can stand in France, which
is not aggressive. Neither can war take
