He die-1 at his residence in tbis city, Thursday night, after a protracted and painful illness. The de ceased had hardly reached the prime of life;— young, intellectual, und fortunate iu his position and relations, the prospect before him was full of promise. His death at such a period, aud under such circumstance*, will be received with pain by all who knew him. r-W*A singular fact bus just been brought to light in London, iu regard to gas meters, which w ill interest the people of Savannah, especially at tic* time when there is much complaint of the quality of the'gas furnished by the Savannah Gas Company. A careful examination of the gas works in Loudon has established the fact, that “the lower the quality of the gas, tho greater the velo city with which it flows tiirough the meter—that is, the quantity registered is increased, in proper- . tion as the quality is deteriorated." Thus, by the simple prove.*.* of ,-upplyiug an inferior article, the bill- of the consumer may be t.iade larger, al though he burn? the gas no longer than before, and the iueomeof the company considerably oug- ; men ted, without any corresponding augmentation of the actual cost --f production. The inferior quality of the gas now furnished in Savsnneh i> the n suit, wc presume, of the unsuit- ' able no** of the coal. If this were accidental, con sumers would have no cause of dissatisfaction, but as a little care would in-urc a good article of coal, and consequently a good article of gas, they have ample reason to complain. The small number of Gas consumers needful to make the business of supplying gas profitable, - i- shown by the fact that the smallest towns at the North have now their gas works; and it is just an nounced that n Philadelphia gentleman offers to; erect them in the village of Edgartuwn. Massaehu- j ■ells, a place of S.onn inhabitants, for the exclusive ’ pm ilege of furnishing it for twenty years. This in a town that exists upon the profit* of catching j and making sperm oil.

Gunrditda. alter his flight from Nicaragua, we are informed, went into Honduras for the purpose of raising men to bring against Nicaragua, but fuiled to accomplish his object, and he was equally unsuccessful in .San Salvador, the great portion of these States being closely allied in sympathy with tho liberal* of Nirnroguo.
