The curee in l!i2 Eastern Penitentiary c Pennsylvania, situated at Philadelphia, named James Gaston, and oged 40 years, was shock ingly murdered on Thursday morning, . by one of the inmates, j a young man named John Billman, who was tried and convicted in Lycoming county, of jiorse stealing, and sen tenced to two years imprisonment, 14 months of 1 hicb time he has served. i. The Curoni cle furnishes the following particulars : - Billman has given strong evidence of in- sanity ever since he has been confined, and was looked upon by the warden and turnkeys as an insane man. Although he has never exhibited any violence yet he was very cun ning in his ways, and was closely watched. He was confined in a cell in the range cf ens of ihe corridors. : Gaston went into his cell about ten o'clock in the mornin" to attend II'. 1: .: . I 0 the prisoner as usual, v hen some words pass, ed between them, and Billman seized a board which he tore up from 1 the floor, and killed him dead by beating him over the head. Billman then stripped the murdered man,and drcs&ed himself in his clothes with the excep tion of the coat, which he tore in getting off. He came out of the cell, passed along the corridor, and through ih)e building in the cen tre of the prison, -and jhen walked down to ths front gate, and into jthe clerk's office. Mr. John S. Halloway, the clerk, was silting at his desk when the prisoner entered. The la:te"rsaid in a sharp tone, that he wanted to .go :' out,", j . - ' V. .'j; J ; . :'r4 ) : : '. ; ;" ,"; I Mr Halloway did not recognize him at first, but as soon as he Spoke he discovered who he was. Seeing, from his wild and exl cited manner, that something had happened, lie told him to come along, and taking him by the! arm. led him back towards the inte no? of the prison; where ihe was met by two of the! turnkey, who were in, pursuit of Bill. man,!and who immediately secured him, and placed him in confinement. " ' . j The turnkeys' bad been alarmed by two prisoners, who were' confibed in cells conti- :i V'L: 4 ::'!- "' "f""!"- ":' '.. ""..:: iC -"".",.'.',. ', guous to Billman, who heard a loud noise in his cell. They went icto the reli, and find ing it empty, and Giston lying there quite dead, started in pursuit of him, when they met him alongside of Mr. Hallowav.- l " The body cf Gaston was examined, and a large V7ouad;two inches and a half in length, at the back of the left car, was discovered. Thcrs was another wound right across the car, severing it in two, a third oner oyer the eye, and another across the chid. There was a large contusion on the breast, 'as! if the prisoner had jumped on the body, and another on the throat, evidently from anil attempt made to strangle the deceased. ' The Coroner was sent for, and an inquest was held on the body of Gaston. The whole of the circumstances, as detailed above J were then related to the jury, and the prisoner, Billman, was brought before them. ! He ap peared perfectly calm and collected, and said that Gaston came into his cell, when' he J Bill man, told him ho wanted to go oiut ;! that Gaston told him he would not let himibut , and struck him; that he then snatched jjj up the piece of board and killed him. ; Trie, jury, after deliberating some time, returned ."ver. diet in accordance with the facts." jj . Gaston was a man of mild, kjuiei' and in oflensive manners, and remarkably ! kind to prisoners. He has left a wife and two chif- d ren. : -' ' I :;,;! ZHf.'K V- Billman is supposed to have murdered his own father, who died under very mysterious circumstances, some lime back, qllejac. knowledged to Mr. Tf'homas, Larciamb,' the moral instructor of the prison, that'he had committed this attrocious act, and :sa"ld that he-wanted to suffer for it. He also acknow ledged in writing the same facts to Mr. Geo. Thompson, the warden of the Eastern Peni itentiaryLV:: ; cf:Ll?i -j; ,. ;;:il.":iv' Courtsliip of a XSastifal Clergryman. . The Rev, John Brown, of Haddington, the well known author of the Sulf-Interpre ling Bible, was - a man ofsingular I bashful, ness. ! In token of the truth of this statement I need only stale ; that bis. courtship lasted seven years. Sit years and a half passed away, and the reverend gentleman had got no further forward than he had been the first six days. This state of things became intolera ble; a step in advance must be made,- and Mr. Brown summoned all his courage for the deed. "Janet,'1 said he, as they sat one night in solemn silence, " we've been ac quaintcd now for six years an1 mair, and IVe ne'er gotten a kiss yet; d'ye think I might take one, my bonnie girl ?" "Just as you like, John ; enly te Icccm ing and proper wi' it." ... : " Surely, Janet ; we'll ask a ticking." The blessing was asked, the kis3 was ta- ken, and the worthy divide, perfectly over powered with tho blissful sensation, most rap turously exclaimed; " Oh, woman, but it is cude we'I I return lliz- f:s." Six months made the pkx:3 co'jp'.e man and wife, "and," added his descendant, who humorously told the tale, ' a happier couple never f::er.t a Ior.- and useful life together." i Tec::i;i.zcg::e Pcctle.

A powder ;mi!l, belonging to the Ilazird Powder Company in Enfield, Conn., containing about six'huni dred pounds of powder, was blown up on the ICth ult. There were three men in the. mil at the time viz : Nelson McCIester, Gilbert M. Durfee,and William Prickett, who were so badly injured that death was the conse quence.l One of them, however, lingered several days. They all left families. It; ap pears that McClestcr was a joiner, and While making some repairs in the mill, by a careless use of his hatchet, produced a spark, which communicated to ihe powder. The reckless ness in this country, relative to powder mills, is abominable. - i !; ; Things in Boston. A singular trial took place in Boston, a few days since, as appears by the Times, whereby a certain discarded lover, named Nathaniel Haley, seeks to ob tain consideration for a bill of articles which were presented to Miss Mary Ann Tibbelt, during said Nathaniel's engagement to her. Nathaniel sues the happy husband of the once Miss Mary Ann Tibbelt, but now Mrs. Geo. B.i Wiggin, and the bill upon which he rests his suit is footed up at the snug. .little sum of $75. i ; .jl,;;,;;,;, : ,f ;,.-;,l The Patent Office.

Tlie writer of this article was called about mid-day to visit a young man in the last mo. ments of life. He was a professed infidel, and refused any spiritual aid, or the services of a minister., Oa entering the room the scene was truly awful the young man was dying near the bed eat his widowed mother and sisters, jlle was struggling to hide his fears and appear calm and collected in the conflict with death. As I approached him the window was slightly opened to admit suf ficient light ; he turned towards the window, and his eye for a moment rested on me; it was only a moment , however, for he as quickly turned away,and, with his face towards the wall, seemed determined to prevent my con. versing with him. I took his hand, ho with, drew it ; I asked him to look at me and talk aboul his latter end he groaned and hid him. self beneath the bedclothes; again I' held his hand and by gentle force turned him to wards me. His countenance wa's iutclli"cr.t. his features good, his appearance indicated twenty or'twcnly-one years of age. ; Shall I pray with you j my' friend ? No, no, no, said he I don't believe in prayer. . Shall I read a portion of God's holy word ? No ! oh don't worry ,me; I don't believe the Bible; why add to my sufferings with such things? I tell you that I am an infidel, and all I ask is 13 be left alone; Do you know you are dying my young friend? Yes! I know it well enough I never shall sec that sun rise or set again I wish lit was over I wish I was dead I wish you would leave me, I did not send for you mother, mother, send this man away ; it is useless to talk with me. O ! my boy, cried the almost heart-broken mother, do listen to the word of truth, vou will soon be beyond its reach -you are fast hastening to the judgment O! my child, 'tis a fearful thing to meet God unprepared ; her sobs cho ked her-utterance. . I kuelt by his side and prayed for God's Spirit to bring the wanderer back. He rojled and tossed in his bed and constantly interrupted me during prayer. I then read from the Bible such verses as I thought would lead his mind to right reflec tion. He hid his face, placed his fingers in bis cars, begged me to desist, and groaned so audibly as to alarm those in ihe room. As I passed towards the door I grasped his hand, and said, farewell, my friend he raised his eyes toward me and seemed to be willing to lis'en.
