DEATH OF An ESTEEMED CITIZEN. W.
Dallas, Esq for the last four or FIVE years a
citizen Of Westminster, departed this life on
Tuesday last, after n lingering illness. Mr..
Dallas had been an invalid for several years
prior to his death, and for more than year
past he had been confined to his house. He
bore his affection, however, with unusual for
titude and cheerfulness, and when, at last, the
pale messenger came to his relief, the lamp OF
life went out SO gradually as scarcely to be
perceived by those who were watching at his
bedside.

THE LATE LADY ELLENBoRoUGH-Th story
in regard to Lady Peterborough, which origi-
pated in the German Gazette, and which told OF
became addicted to polyandry and has so many
husbands she hardly knew what to do, is denied
in the Pail Mall Gazette of March 10Th. Mrs
Isabel Burton, wife of Captain Burton. the
famous African explorer, who knew the lady in
Damascus, says that the ISLANDERS in regard TO
her were idle tales invented by news-m1ngers
The truth is that about sixteen years ago she
made UP her mind to leave Europe and live in
the East. She arrived at Beyrout, went to
Damascus, and from there started across the
desert 10 Bagdad, having Shaykh Mijeval as
The commander of her escort. She was extremely
beautiful, and the young Shaykh fell i'm love
with and proposed to marry her. The rom antic
picture OF becoming a queen Of the desert ex-
actly suited Lady Ellenborough's wild fancies
and she married the chief, and ever afterwards
lived h0norably with him. a faithful wife. She
assed half OF each year at Damascus and half
in the desert.
