Died

-- At St. Stephen’s, Alabama, on Monday, the 7th inst. David RUST, Esq., a native of New York, and for many years a distinguished member of the bar of the State of Alabama.

-- At St. Stephen’s, Alabama, on the 8th instant, Mr. George RASER, age 24 years, a native of Philadelphia, and for some years a resident merchant of the city of Mobile. He left here a few days previous, on his way to his native State, and was taken with the fever incident to that country, at this season of the year, which terminated his life.

-- On the 25th (28th?) of July, on board the steamboat Herald, on his passage from Mobile to Demopolis, in Alabama, Captain Francis BIERNE, in the 36th year of his age, a native of Lule (Lille?), France. He was a soldier of reputation in Napolean’s army, and was one of the survivors of the memorable Russian campaign, in which he was wounded and made prisoner. During a short residence amongst us, in which he had not only to surmount the ordinary difficulties of the stranger in a strange land, but to learn a new language, his honorable, frank, and disinterested conduct acquired him a numerous circle of most respectable friends who will long remember with deep regret the premature exit of one possessed of so many amiable and chivalrous qualities. From the “Mobile Register.”

-- In Salem, Mass., on Tuesday morning last, Mr. William E. RICHARDSON, President of the American Insurance Company, aged 41.

-- On Friday evening last, at his residence in Prince George’s county, Mr. William BAYNE, in the 97th year of his age – a man much respected by his acquaintance. How few live to see even sixty years – but how much fewer still the age of ninety-six. Mr. BAYNE stood alone in the midst of a strange world; the only companion of his youth, Mr. HAWKINS, his nearest neighbor, died last winter, aged 92 or 3. Years and years ago saw all his other companions cut down around him – and himself left thus almost alone.
