DEATH OF FRANCIS GALLAGHER, Eso.-The Bal
tmore papers report the death of this gentleman
to have taken place in Baltimore on the 10th
instant He was unmarried and had, we be-
lieve, but one near relation living in this coun-
try, brother who resides in Connecticut and
who was with him during his sickness. Mr..
Gallagher has represented the city of Baltimore in
the House of Delegates and was one of the ear
lest advocates for the abolition of Imprisonment
for debt in this State, and we believe, reported
the first bill which ever was introduced into
the State Legislature to that effect. He served
as a Lieutenant in the Federal army during the
war, and at its close espoused with great ear
nestness the reconstruction notions Of President
johnson. AS a politician, Mr. Gallagher was
known throughout the State, and as stump
speaker had considerable reputation. He died
in the SD. year of his age, of consumption. His
health had been declining for some time, not
withstanding, which he took an active part in
the campaign of the past FALL and made speech
from the Court House steps in this place, on
the first day of last November.

ACCIDENT TO THE THOMAS KELso'-The steam
err Thomas lso, of the Norfolk line, met with
an accident on her downward trip, on Saturday
last The accident, says the Baltimore Gazette,
is said to have been the result of the weakness of
the steam drum. By this accident, five persons
were killed and number more or less injured,
two of whom have since died. On the forward
deck there were several horses and mules, all of
which were killed by inhaling steam. No fe-
males are reported to have been injured. The
boat was nearly new and belonged to the Bal
timore and Norfolk line.

RELIEF FOR MASSACHUSETTS.

At the semi-annual Conference lately held at
Salt Lake City, Brigham Young delivered an
address, and among other things reviewed the
condition of society in Lowell, Massachusetts,, and
thus speaks of the female portion of its inhabi-
tants:
"The last time was in the city of Lowell
there were fourteen thousand more females than
males in one city. They live and die in single
state, and are forgotten"
The Prophet proposes to remedy the evil, in
this wise. He SAYS:
1.-TWO thousand good, God fearing men should
90 there and take to themselves seven wives a.
piece. 1t is written in the Bible, and in that
day, seven women shall lay hold of one man
saying, we will eat our own bread, and wear our
own apparel only let US be called by thy name,
to take away our reproach."
This mode of getting rid of the surplus female
inhabitants of the "Hub," has, perhaps, some
advantages over the plan proposed by Governor
Andrew, one or two years ago, in this, that it
will be less expensive. Brigham will, of course,
send with each Mormon sufficient amount of
money to take him to Lowell and 10 bear the ex-
penses of his seven wives back to Salt Lake City;
whereas Governor Andrews plan was, if we re-
member right, to send them to Oregon or Cali
fornia, at the expense of the Commonwealth
In view of the proposition made by the Govern
or, to rid the Stale of this surplusage ofpopula-
ton, one would be apt to think that Brigham's
plan would take. Ofcourse, all the females who
are to be sent beyond the Rocky Mountains are
white, for it will be recollected that the people of
Massachusetts, are desperately opposed to the
separation of negro families and have made it a
cause of complaint against the slave holding
States, for more than thirty years. This has
been paraded in all their alminacs and religions
journals as one of the greatest crimes of the
Southern States; and of course Massachusetts,
would not be guilty of committing the same, or
q similar outrage against which she so long and
bitterly complained. Now, these Massachusetts
females who are to spend the balance oftheir lives
according to the suggestion of Governor An
drew, under the shadow of the Sierra Nevada, all
have relations and friends, as well as the negroes
of the South; but then, they are white and
therefore lack, in the estimation of Puritanism,
those strong attachments which belong to the
american citizen of African descent" We have
known mothers to shed tears, at the bridal cere-
mony, over the loss of daughter, when the
young wife was to spend her days within sight
of.the smoke of her fathers chimney but
these people had not the benefit of a Puritanical
education, and knew not the beauties of wo-
mans rights and Bloomerism, nor were they
schooled in the delightful and exciting amuse-
ment of burning witches or dragging Quakers in
a state of nudity through the streets.

WASHINGTON, April 27.-Tho fol-
lowing additional correspondence on
the subject Of Mexico has been pub
lished:
NJ. Drouyn de IHuys informed
Minister Bigelow in January that
the French Government had no in
tention to take Egyptian troops to
Mexico, but that it adhered entirely
to the policy heretofore announced
to our Minister on that subject. On
Mr.. Bigelow's asking him ifhe could
give an idea of the guarantees which
he hoped to obtain from Mexico, NJ.
Drouyn de l'IIuys replied they did
not, of course, expect to get all the
money owing to them, but they
hoped for something which they
might regard as an equivalent; that,
however, was q matter OF negotia-
ton between them and Mexico.
Mr.. Bigclow says:
II then asked whether it would
not be possible in some way to an
rest tho useless and demoralizing
warfare that was carried on in Mex
leo between Maximillian and the
Juarists, atleast while these negotia-
tions were going on, that is, while
the French occupation should last.
He said he wished there was; that
the atrocities practited were really
too dreadful to speak Of, but he did
not know that he could do anything
to discourage them, and asked if !
had anything to suggest. l said |
supposed that if the Juarists were
sure that the French were intend
ing to leave Mexico within short
time, which seemed reasonable to
them, that they weuld then have q
fair chance Of trying conclusions
with Maximillian's party; they
would be willing to leave him un.
disturbed by them, and that ifFrance
or Maximillian had any indirect
means of coming to such an under
standing with Juarez, it might rem
der the situation less embarrassing
to all parties. His EXcellcncy re.
piled that he would be very glad il
that were practicable, as it would
enable them to leave the country SC
much the sooner; but they had nc
means Of communicating with
Juarez, and ne asked me if | could
