THE LAST or THE PENNS.

Granville John Penn, Esq, the grandson
of William Penn, the Proprietary of Pennsyl-
vania, died in London ON the 29th ultimo.
Mr.. Penn was the eldest surviving son of
Granville Penn, Esq, of Stoke Pogis, who was
the eldest son of Thomas Penn, one of the
Joint Proprietaries of Pennsylvania. Thomas
Penn was the eldest son of William Penn, by
his second wife, Hannah Callowhill. The
only surviving descendent of the founder of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, who
bears the name of Penn, is an unmarried
brother of the late Granville John Penn,
who was also bachelor, so that the name
will soon be extinct. There are several
descendants of the founder, however, of
other names, among whom may be mentioned
Lord Northland, Lady Gonun, and the Penn
Gaskill family of this city.

ornaments OF the Maine bar. One OF the great
est of his forensic and "eold-mouthed" efforts
was his mastery defense of DR.. Coolidge, who
was tried and convicted for the m urder of Mat.
thews in Waterville several years ago. Nor we're
his triumpbs confined to the state bar. At the
he held rank with the ablest OF advocates. In
private life he was genial and social; in his in.
tercourse, generous and hospitable. He has
gone from us forever. After lies 6tful fever
the illustrous statesman and lawyer sleeps well.
While we lament his loss, let his fame be
cherished.

IIARPER's FERRy-1NTEREsTTNG
QUESTION OF TITLE.-During the period
of General Washington's incumbency of
the Presidency various tracts OF land at
Harper's Ferry were ceded to him and
his successors in trust for the United
States, for the purpose of erecting build
mos for the manufacture of arms, DC.
The government armory and workshops
remained at that point up to the time of
the breaking out of the war i'll 1861.
The War Department having determin-
ed against relocating the government
armory there, application has been made
for Il sale or conveyance Of the land to
parties who are desirous of putting up
manufacturing establishments.
During the governments occupancy
several religious denominations, the
Board of Education and an Odd Eel
lows lodge, were allowed to erect edi-
fees on parts of the ground. These diff
fcrent associations now ask an act of
Congress to allow the Secretary Of War
to give them deeds for the lots respec-
lively occupied by them. Doubts have,
however, arisen in high legal quarters
as to the right Of the United States to
sign away any Of this land, as the origi-
nal deeds Of trust to General Washing
ton expressly stipulates That the ground
so conveyed was to he forever held to
the uses and purposes of the United
States, and if surrendered, it is thought
that the heirs of the original owners
might claim that the entire tract revert
ed back to them Correspondence Bal

A CURE FOR CoLD.-Every body
has in his life time suffered with a bad
cold. It does not make man particu-
larlv sick, nor does it make him very
agreeable in his temper. He is not i'll
enough to require the services of his
family physician, nor yet can he attend
to his ordinary avocatiens with any de-
gree Of comfort. He is peevish and
frettul, and if his disposition is natural
" irascible he makes all about him un-
comfortable.
We have, in mercy for those suffering
under this disease, extracted from an old
volume, published in 144o sovereign
remedy for this complaint. No one will
doubt it who will mark its antiquity.
Without positive merit itcould not have
survived the wreck of ages, but so it has,
and to-day we offer it as a specific to all
who are laboring under this annoying
malady. We have often had the use of
the last article mentioned, suggested to
us, but never tested its efficacy, but
since it has so much Of venerable age to
recommend it we shall do so the first
time we take cold. 1t would be we'll to
cut this out and Law it aside until occa-
sion calls for its use:
