Perhaps it was just as we'll that the

will be opened, has so increased lately
that the Prince of Monaco, who former
~ asked 50, 000.O 900 for his prinoipaiity,
now demands double that sum. Several
French and English capitalists have also
purchased the houses of number OF
bnrghers and peasants, in order to erect
large hotels upon their sites. It is con-
sidered. however, as not improbable that
the Prince Of Monaco. whether he Wills

A GOOD CATCH.-One of our respected mar
chants, (Thos. II. Shaw, Esq., lately went on
a pilgrimage alone, to the Umbago chain of
lakes, striking Oquossuc or Richardson's Lake
at Greenvale Plantation, thence descending
the lake to Cupsuptic and Mooslemeguntc.
His object was to renew his acquaintance with
the trout of that region--which object he must
have accomplished to his satisfaction, as he
induced some forty of the speck led beauties to
accompany him on his return, the largest of
which was 20 inches long and weighed 8 2
pounds! Mr.. s. doubtless thinks himself en-.
titled to claim the "gold rod" which has never
been awarded 10 any champion fisher; but he
must hold on awhile, for there i, larger one
specially awaiting our coming at Oquossuc, to
which we shall pay our respects after we have
accomplished Fourth of July and some other
things.

WASHINGTON, June 2-Synopsis of the
past "a hours.-The high wind which prevail
ed on Thursday evening at Key West still con-
bly, extended westward in the Gulf. The cloud v
and threatening weather OF the middle Allan
tic has extended 10 the Blue Ridge, with fresh
ported. Clear weather has prevailed in the
New England States, and on the upper lakes
heavy rains are probably confined TO the small
area from Western Tennessee. The area Of
highest barometer has continued on the At
lantic coast, and the pressure has fallen some
what in the upper Mississippi Valley. The
temperature has Increased on the East Allan
tic and in the Northwest.
PrObabilties.-It is probable that the high
winds in the Gulf will advance with the rains
to the coast OF Louisiana. The weather will
probably clear away in the Middle States and
falling barometer with local rains will proba-
bly, be experienced west of the Blue Ridge.
Pleasant weather will probably continue from
Wisconsin to the Atlantic.

TBE STyGIAN MoHAss.--We have already
feferred to the internal lake situated In the
western part of ward seven which, receiving
the drainage of taupeIies, stables and other
buildings, and unprovided with any outlet and
reeking with the foul accumulation OF months
gives off such noxious fumes that it is won
der that the BIRDS flying over it are not suffica-
ted aud killed. The people living on the shores
of this deadly marsh are suffering from fevers
and other diseases, we understand, and if some
remedy is not found it is not unreasonable to,
apprehend that a serious epidemic will take its
rise there in the course of the season. The Pc
riodical overflow which causes the city cOnsid-
cradle eYpenre is amatter OF secondary I'M
portance. The petition for its drainage, sign
ed by our most eminent physicians and other
prominent citizens, shows that the danger Is
fully realized. But since the clrcuiatlon O.
this petition, reports have been set on loot to
the effect that the drainage OF the pntrid
swamp is impracticable. To meet these un-
founded statements, Levi Weymouth, Geo.
LIBBY, SamI Jewett, G. w. Burnham, Aims
worth Carleton and f. w. Clark, gentlemen
who have long been acquainted with the locali-
ty, have drawn up counter. stateme Mt in which
they say that prior to 1849 the surface, water
from the adjacent territory flowed with the
tide into Back Cove through deep natural
channel; good hay fields lay on each side
which were Overflowei, they believe, there
fore, that the spot can be thoroughly drained
by simply removing the Instructions to the
natural flow of the water, or by laying sulta-
BILE drain to do the work of the natural chan
mel.

from Bangor to pass on to Boston without the

quite sharp yet regular one, and the bridge
is built in the best workmanship of Messrs. N.
