SUDDEN AND SINGULAR DEATH-One day
last week Mrs. Tompkins, of Boston, daughter
OF Capt. Totman of this city, pilot of Revenue
Cutter Mahoning, had laughing gas admins
tered to her iE Boston, for the purpose of hay
ing tooth extracted. She inhaled three bags
full of the gas and it seemed to have no effect
upon her only to render her more rigid and
resolute. On thesevening of the same day, af-
ter engaging in conversation with the family
she retired to her room locking the door after
she had entered. There was small cylinder
stove in the room which contained anthracite
coal which was burning. She partially remov-
ed the cover of the stove and retired to bed
In the course of the night noise was heard
proceeding from her room but as she was fire.
quently troubled with nightmare, it was sup
posed to proceed from that, and no attention
was paid to it, Not making her appearance
the next morning and the door of her room
being locked, access was had to the window
and she was discovered lying upon the bed ap-
parently hfeless. The door was burst open and
it was found that Mrs Tompkins was dead
Whether her death was occasioned by the
laughing gas she had inhaled the day previous,
or whether from the gas from the cylinder
stove in her room, or from both combined, are
questions which divide the minds of her friends
Her body was brought to this city for inter

SPLENDID MECHANIsM.-We saw yesterday
at the mandatory of Mr.. C. P Kimbal, two
single and two double sleighs, which, in our
opinion, are among the finest specimens of me-
chanical skill of the times. They are new and
beautiful in design, of exquisite taste, elegant
in finish, and are indeed splendid luxury
which cannot fail to still further enhance the
reputation of the builder-a reputation not ex
celled, if equalled, in the Union.
These sleighs may be seen at Kimball's re-
pository to-day. This evening they will be sent
to Boston to Messrs. Kimball Brothers & Co.
and will be exhibited at their repository in that
city for few days. We say to all our friends
in this city and Boston, do not fail to see these
truly splendid sleighs. They do honor to the
builder and to Portland mechanics.

To Citizens of Foreign Birth,

Friends, lend us your attention for few
moments. We desire to contemplate an
event Of recent birth and which concerns
you nearly and particularly. A band of
of Congress, have unawfully SEIZED upon pow
,qr at Washington. In the delirium OF anaii
Gu excitement, they are rushing through
laws affecting the interests, the property and
the liberty of American citizens, without
delber alton on their qualities, and without
heed as to their consequences.
One of these il the Registration Bill.
Among its provisions, it is reqired of Natur-
allzed Citizens to appear before a Board Of
men to be appointed by the Territorial Gov
ernor, and satisfy them of their citizenship
before they can have the privilege of being
enrolled us voters! You ale either to pro
duce your naturalization papers duly anthem
ticated. or to produce two witnesses to the
fact Of citizenship But before considering
the nature Of these requirements, let us con
slider the fact Of their being any requirements
at all. Are these the things You expected
when you quilted your native lands to seek
a home in the distant America ? YUu have
complied with the demands of the naturall-
cation law; you have done your part, fulfilled
your share Of the contract, and from that
moment you became citizens in all respects,
as though you had b en- born on the soil.
Who then has right, after that, to add

object. To this end, the rights, privie
yes, property and lives Of the people
were scrupulously guarded Ore de-
partment did not constitute the govern

Passing Away.

. Some favoritc lady of the quill, We
think was the author of poem of the
above caption concerning the signs, and
evidences Of The fading away-and Ger.
tain extinction of the In lin tribes along
the Atlantic seaboard. We read the po-
EN- when quite boy, and the argument
contained in the poem, tending to estab-
: li-h the theory of the lady, made a last
ing impression upon our youthful mind.
The principal reason as we remember,
was that the tribes bred and habituated
TO certain manners and customs and modes
OF life were prone to ape their ''long fac
/ ed" neighb1rs, and with the change thus
\ pro 'duced to which they we're unaccu1.
I. tome d., certain causes would follow the
u1ima tie result of which would be the
>. ltire c. ytincton of the race. Whether
the argun. 'ent possesses any wei. ,ht and
EMIT. ed to acceptance or not, we C. Te no:

cal chan. ges my be effected without pro-
ducin. sue III res ult ~ ia many departure cts

Of any consi deraficn whatever, should be
equally tue Of al other things where tbs
same subject matter is Involved It
should appear as apropcs in he literary
world. in the military department, and
in Governmental affairs. We are not
prepared 10 accede to this general appli
cation at this time, without further re-
Fiction. 1t is, however, ap plicable to
governments and their forms. The adop
ton by one government of radical
change, 30 as to conf rm to some other
government of an entirely different char
acter may not directly destroy the gov
ernmeut itself, but if followed by other
changes, it may be said of it truthfuily,
''it is passing away" Take for eIampea
dcspotic form of government where the
voice of the Ruler is supreme, and the
people-those who are governed-are not
entitled to be heard suppose the masses
by change in the prevailing forms be-
come invested with the right OF repre-
sentation aud this followed by, in all cas-
es, the right to trial by jury; OF such a
government, it may be said it is passing
away" Suppose by further aping re-
publicanism, the royal prerogative should
be greatly curtailed, it would be no long
err a despotism, but limited monarchy.
With every government to a greater or
less extent, it is the same. The govern. I
ment under which We live, may be
