Preparations for Harboring the Monster Steamship Grea Eastern—Improvements in the City in Oonsequence— Beau tiful Residences—A Gorgeous Summer Residence~In ereasing Trade of Portland—Landlords Getiing Ready to Accommodate the Expected Influe—\1he Ardent’ Plemty— Arrival of the Husband of Mrs. Fanny Deane Halsey, de ‘The last advices from official sources in London state that the Great Eastern steamahip will pontively sail for this port between the 15th and 25th of August next, tne Pregress of the work now going on justifying the belief Shat the contract entered into above four months sinve, in ‘which it was stipulated, im default of heavy penalty, that Bhe should be completed in twenty-one weeks, will be ful. filled.

The Directors of the Grand Trunk Railway, whore eastern torminus is at the very edge of the harbor, have mo doubt had their influence on the Great Eastern Comps, | my in the selection of Vortland, above all other commercia) harbors on the American soa bosrd, as tne point to which She great monster shall make her first essay; but apart from such influence, Captain Harrison, her commanier, and other professional gentlemen who have becn seut ever to make personal and scientific examinations of oar harbors, have reported this one to be the most eligible for her reception, from its close proximity to the ocean, ite @reat depth of water, and perfect security during bad weather. Tne city is on the very margin of the ocean, and the barbor is virtually scooped out of a solid rock, with numerous rocky islands in such relation to its ea- twan:6, as to protect it from the wash and iavasion of the wea. The natural advantages of this place in a commer- @ial point of view, its elevation, geographioal position, and the diveraided picturesque attractions of its scenery, render it at once a most desirable location for the em ployment of enterprise and capital, as we!l as a delightful and healthy place of residence. Its cool, bracing, saline stmogphere during the summer months, its elm shaded streets, the prominades and drives at either ond—in pass- ‘ng over which a succession of the mest beautiful scenery Is developed to view—sea bathing, &c , and the cheapness Of living, peculiarly adapte Portland as @ place of resort during the hot season. Although the inhabitants do not, asa general thing, appreciate the business advantages so boun- ‘Aufuily bestowed upon them, yet they appear to be alive to the other benefits surrounding them, and to derive the Breatest possible amount of social happiness from their Qpplication. Almost every dwelling house in Port- fend is surrounded by ® tastefully Iaid out aad highly fertile gerden, and this characteristic gives the city @ countryfied lovk that is refreshing and delightful to behold, At the west end some magoificeat and really pa: intial residences bave been erected, among the most boau- tiful of which may be mentioved those of the Hon. J. B. Brown, T. ©. Hersey, Hon. J. M. Wood, the Messrs, Spring, and R. 8. Morse, of New Orleans. The suinmer mansion of this last named gentleman, not yet completed, te to cost the enormous sum of $130,000, Ido not sup- pose that there ia a private raaideuce in such close prox- tmity to apy city In the world to costiy, ma wi agni‘iceat, and uch 8n extensive and beautiful garden surrounding that of Mr. Brown.

From these grounds can be discerned the White mountains, ninety miles distant, while at every point in the vicinage avd distance the most varied and gublime Boenery can be viewed. Uniti the opening of the Grand Truok Railway, the com mercial traffic of Portland was confined atmost exclusivel to Cuba and the other Wert India sugar gro ving islands; bot since then much has been done through tals sourco with the European ports onthe one band, and Canada and the Western States on the other. A good deal of traffic between Bostou aud the inland places mentioued passes over this rond, and ehall endeavor to get some data in relation to ite fa- cilities, expenses, &c., with a view o° ascertaining wbethar i would not afford @ more expeditious and belter chaane: of transit also for the New York merchant than those now employed. Mr. Miller, the gentlemanly and energetic goods manager, informs me that there are now 830 milew of G. T. Railway workiog, and that its connections are goods and passengers can be trangmitied to any point in either Canada or the Western States. By the iret of November next itis expected that the great Victoria Bridge will be finished andjopened for traffic.

They consist of two piers cach feet long, 100 feet wide, acd 300 feet apart, which makos ths distance from centre to centre, the points opposite which the fore and after hatchways will come, 400 feet.

I am credibly informod that there is more spirituous liquors now drank in Port- Tand than there was previous to 1861, and there is more intemperance among families, from the fact that habitual Grinkers and others are driven tebparchass It by the pint, quart and galion, and in these quantities it is emugglod toto the hou id, to remain as a standing temptation to evil. The liquor ‘Inw of this State, therefsra, like the similar Jews in the adjoining ones, is not only adead letter, ‘but has actually increased the vico it was intended to cor- rect, It is surprising that the able, well meauing persons mong the fanatical crowd who havo been instramental in Sts enactment could not have foreseen the evils that must arise from attemp's to thus forcibly deprive he public at large from drinking what it pleases. ‘When we reflect on the violent aversion men hayo to subjection, and on the many pornicious and ty raopical plang that bave been projected by the fa- matics all over the country to prevent ple from ‘drinking intoxicating Iiuors, we cannot wooder that not ovly hove all atemyisto this end proved fruitless, but that they bave algo had a blighting effect upon the philo wophicai and worthy efforts of others in staying the abuso oftnem.

Lraveswortu, June 20, 1859, Revival of the Pike's Peak Excitement—Alleged Immense Gold Discoveries—How the News is Received—Ficts Stated—Ezxcitement Ten Times Greater Than Before— Statement of the Express Rider, Lane—News from Fort Leavenworth— Movements of Proops—The Utah Supplies— Malicious Charges Against a Meritorious Officer, de. , de. ‘This city and the regions hereabout are again all excite- ment in regard (o the discoveries of gold in Weatern Kansas, Formerly the excitement was moat'y ex-Territo- sial—now it js active, powerful and pervading among our own people, many of whom are making preparations to tart for tho mines. Your readers have seen the letters and reports brought in by the last twoarrivals. This infor metion, it will be observed, 1s very different from former intelligence, in this respect; it gives the names of the men who mined, the time and place they mined, and the amounts made per day, Though the facts stated are more extraordinary than apything that was ever heard from California—claims gelling for $20,000, ana men making bundreds of dollars @ qay— still they are generally be- Neved bere. The men who have written this news from the mines are well known here, and many of my friends bere who know them testify to me that they are persons of atern integrity, character and relia- bility. The friends and acqusiutances of these letter writers confide absolutely in their statements. I state these things to show what credence is given to the iate news here among our citizens, who wore themselves duriog all the late excitement merely infidels, or abotiors of what they deemed groundless reports, or hopers that things were as reported. The hundreds of miles of country covered with fine gold washings show that the source of this gold must be richer ‘han the remote borders or outekirts of it, whither it bas been borne only by the action of water. Up to the latest arrivals all must admit that the source of these widely diffused particles of goid bad no: been found. These arrivals bring, or claim to brivg es intelligence from the sources, the original de. posits of in the mountains. Your readers have had she letters, and can digest them for themselves; s0 I will merely state eome matters gathered from the express rider, M. R. Lane, who came through in seven days. Mr. Lane was until recently an employé at Fort Leaven- worth of one of the most effloiens and reliable officers in the army. That officer had occasion to test and know the character of M. R. Lane—it was found to be beyond re proach, Upon the recommendation of said officer, Lane got bis position in Jones & Ruseell’s express. The officer ailuded to bas expressed to me his entire confl- dence in the trutbfalaces of Lane, and Lane bas made to him privately repeatedly, woen there could be no earthly object or reason for misrepresentation, the game statement ‘Ubat I here give. The rich gold is found io fissures in the mountains, which fissures the miners term leads. Tbe one found by Gregory was traced across the mountains fur a long dis- tance, This lead is not a water course, bat seems to have been formed by the burning or breaking up of the rock. Its width would average fifteen inches, but ie (the width) is very irregular, fu some places being $0 narrow oze could not get the blade of a knife between the rocks, in other places wide envugh for seve- ve] men to work togetner init. The gold is found mixed with the broken rock in these leads. Toere is shot gold #04 gold beering quartz rock.

Tne mountain streama run crosewise the leads and not parallel tothem. The mount of gold taken {rom these leade he states is, so far as his knowledge extends, very similar to that stated tn the letters woich you have seen. The aolid rock on either side of avo Teac i hese iste think agen gold in as iarge pypportion as the leads themselves, only they mate to ennicr breaking the solid rock.’ All thee things appearig satisfactory to our people, their excita- tion in regard to the mines is one hundred fold as it Sas ever been bitherto, Another of Jones and Rus- ecll’s expreeses is expected ine few days. I will write you upoa ite arrival. If it corroborates the late pews there will be @ stampede of our peopie westward. Jones acd Russell run their expresses to toe mines now by the Uteh route and Utah mail, aiverging at the east of the mouptaips, and runpisg a hundred and fifty miles south to Denver City. in convection with the mines a few words as to politics will not be inappropriate. It 18 understood and concluded upon by the republican party here that Seward will be their party nominee for 1860. If a good Seward mau {s nominated here for the House, t are $5,000 in the East waiting for him. He is to take this inoney and go to the mines and canvass that region 0 country for himself ana Seward. O:her mon will take care ot Fastern Kaoess. [ oould name the hands in which the money i# now held. if the mines are productive the vote of that region of Kansas will be most important to her politicians. The man who goes out there is to pledge bis efforts to get the wee'ern ‘of tie Territory admitted as an independent State. He is especially to hold forth the idea of @ separate, independent government for the mining country, ‘The policy of this is to have two repub- Hoan Sates bere in 1860. If the et news from the mines turns out trve the project may perbaps be realized. ‘The democracy spent, at the recent election hera fora constitutional convention, $16,000, $10,060 of which was Spent in this county and the rest in diferent sections of Territory. It is reported to have come from the jecret service fund,”” ARMY INTELLIGENCE. On the 13th inst. 400 recrnits left the fort for Utah under Colonel Chapman, of the Fifth intautry.

There are four companies stationed here—two of ligut and two of foot artillery. Ip connection with other military matters, I will state a few things in regard to the complaints which you saw some time since against that tried, able and honored offl- oer, Captain Van Vieet. In the spring of 1868 bo bougut ome 4,060 mules for government, He made it an iava- riabie rule not to take any Dut good and serviveavie aai wm the result of which is tbat every man admires aud #peaks well of government mules. Again, the captain never guve more to oue man for mules than ho did to another; bis course was invariable; he paid the market price and no more. This dissatietled some of the venders; they thought they onght to make more money out of the goveroment than out of an ordioary vendee. But as ths Captain stuck strictly aud honerably to his price and the interests of the government, they gave him up is despair, and then immediately sought te compass his removal, hoping to get a man whom they could use as & tool, Taey first went to Washington and procured the appointmont of a Board of Officers to bave ths price of their mutes in- creased. The Board refused to do so, and since thea the digeativiled mule venders haye been moving heaven and earth agains. Captain Van Vieet. One of them has pro- ferred charges Against bim, oaly one of which is worthy of notice. Taat one is, that the captain received large sums of money from ‘certain parties for taking their mules. As Boon as these men saw this charge they insiantiy went before a competent cor, made affidavit that they had never paid Captaia Van Vieet a cent of money for taking their mules, vor for any other purpose, and that he had vot directly or indirectly received one cent advantage from their selling the govorn- ment mules. These ailidavits were immediately forward- ed to Capt Van Viect. I have seen thom, aud therefore know that they are so. The captain has asked fora coart to examine into these charges against him, but as ti cretary of War is posseesed of these affidavita {t is proba ble the court will be refused, aud the caarges <ismiszed as the work of malice. Obituary. Gen. Grrarn Gossett died on Saturday, June 11, at bis feat in Kent, at the advanced age of ninety yeats. He entered the army as far back as November, 1789.

ING SING PRISON, Visit to the Above Institution—Its Present, Conditiua—The Overflow of Male Convicts and Want of Accommedations — Noted Criminals Incarcerated, and their Employ- ment=Che Bemaic Prison and its Inmates. Our State Prison at.Bing Sing bas probably a the pre- ‘sent day more notorious criminals confined within ite walls then at apy time eince its erection, n fact itha become #0 crowded that there are not cells enough to accommo Gate all, especially in the male department. There are now incarcerated 1,085 male prisoners and 129 fo male, In the male department thore are celis for the accommodation of one thousand, leaving nearly one hundred more to be otherwise provided for, A portion of these are furnished with sleeping rooms in various por- tions of the prison, most of whom are used for the gene rel work about the institution, The remaiaing number, about fifty, are quartered at night in the chapel, the benches, &c., being used to sleep op, and over them is detailed a specia) guard. There is certainty great necrasity of an addition to the main prison. Tho present state of the prison is im a most praiseworthy condition, everything indicating cleanliness aad perfect order, The cells and walls are kept clean with white- wasb, and are freely ventilated, a number of the colored convie's being kept for this special duty. ‘he walks and the various workshops are also in good condition, and worthy of comment. Tae shops being large and commouious, a fine breeze passes through them from the river, which makes it very comfortable for the convicts in warm weather. Tne Warden, Mr. Beardsley, and big agsistents, have made many valuabie improve. menta of Inte, and appear to study the comfort of those veder their supervision. Every attention is paid to the sick; no one found complaining in any way is permined to go a moment without proper atieniioa; and from the fact that there are only seven under treatment in the hos pital, out of so large @ number, it is safe to preaums that proper medical attention is paid to the wants of all. Four new contracts have been entered into during tho past year, upon which a large number of the convicts aro employes, That of manufacturing iron castings and stove plates is one of the new contracts. For this purpose a ew workshop is about finished, vpon which is om- ployed the notorious Joe Cobura. The work of casting tue above artioler, together with manufacturing augers, is eaid to be a new business for the convicts; but thus far the project seems to proaise complete success. Tne con- tract is claimed to be svflicieat for the employment of wll the men io the prison, The crimes for whh the prisoners are incarcerated embodies of course almost every class that ia known. There aro some haif «dozen in for murder, about one bundred and fifty for grand lar. ceny, five for manslaughter, and about one hundred and fifty for burglary and highway robbery. [heir term of sentence aversges from two years to imprisonment for tite. ‘There appears to be but five doomed to the latter term, while there is one in for forty yoare, three for twen- ty years, and about ose hundred and dfty fur two years, Ue remainder averag'ng from two to twenty years. It ts estimated that three fourths of the convicts do not exceed twenty. five years in age; there are two whoare over pixty years, some twelve over fifty, aud about ono Dundred under twenty-oue years of age. fhe system for regulating time is extremely well carried out during the present season. The ceils of tho prisoners are opened at six o’ciock in the morning and closed at Lhe game hour in the evening, fifteen minutes are allowed Ww going from tne cells to the shops; fifwen minutes for inipg, and for meals forty fice minutes. The laboring je ten hours and forty-dve minutes; but each prisoaer bas acerta’n amount of work to perform daily, aad in 10 gets through at an carly hour be can do over work, for whi he is credited. Jo this way many of the con- victs bave quite a sum isid up by the time of their livera- vom. Lagt year $2),°.3 35 was awarded to the convicts for overwork. The moce of punishment, with the exception of the “‘coge,” is similar to that used in all prisons, the suower bain being the most severe. Laat year two hundred sod severty-one were showered, four punished with the ball and chain, and eighty-eight capped and yoked. The “cage,” recently devised for punishment, appears leas objectionable than the shower bata. It is simply a box made of planks, seven feet im height, and at the top fitted with two moveable planks, in wnich the neck of a man is ciasped. The convict who i¢ to be punished is ated ch a moveable platform, which of the prisoner; a nt pia Jimbe, but bis hands are left at liverty. The prisoner is Kept in this unpleasant position untii it is thought he has been puntehed enovgh, und he ie then taken out. There in, it is eaid, no poesible danger to life or limb by this mode of punishment. Passing through the prison and workehope, our reporter, through the courtesy of detec. tives Elder and Wildey, was enabled to see mauy of the notorious criminals, among whom were a large number who made this city their field of operations. among the first that met our view was JAKE THOMPSON, The Long Island negro convicted about eleven years ago for stealing two coats from a hallway in Brook- lyn. He was found guilty, amd received a sentence of fourteen years and six months.

He says that it was very fortunase that he did not carry off'a who'e suit, for if he had he would have never got off with leas than a life sentence.

The weather throughout bas beeo very fine, and the ground was never in better condition than during the laettwodays.

As I have ever found you ready to assist ths unfortu- nate and promote the cause of justice and humanity, I beg you to give publicity to my statement. Among my neighbors is a man to whom I have frequently loaned money, which he never repaid. I finally refused to do s> apy longer, and he ieft me, saying { should repent it. He has taken his revenge in a manoer which has caused mo ‘the deepest grief, and for which I he rigat to ask the fympathy and indignation of my fellow citizens. Ihad a fine Newfoundland dog, whom I had ratsed from a pup, and to whom I was greatly attached. Tnis man stole my dog; and I, on missing him, sought for him in that disgraco to @ civilized and Christian community—the Dog Pound. jut my enemy, knowing that the dogs were kept only ‘twenty-four hours, and anticipatiog that [ would go imme diately there, kept the dog himeeif two or three days, and then presenting him at the pound in the morning, recetved the reward of fifty cents for hig theft, and returoing in ‘the afternoon satisfied himself of his death, after whicn he came to tell me what he bad done. I do not know whether the law could afford me any redress, but if it could, it cannot restore to life the faithful friend whom | so truly loved and valued. And as long as the dog pound is suffered to exisi,a blot upon our city, where men aud boys are paid for stealing, and taught to regard ‘this wanton infliction of crueity and the safferings of an un- offendiog anima! with indifference, any oxe of my fellow citizens may sviler as [have cone. The burgiar and as Sagsin may rejoice in there efforts to exterminate a race of animals whom God has given to man to protect and de fend him. The midnight murderers of Dr. Bardell could not bave perpetrated the horrid deed in ailense and se cresy, if at all, had the sufferer been accompanied by his dog. Will not, then, every upright acd honest man set himself againet an institution «nich encoarages the young im dishonesty and cruelty, and affords the unprincipied tan an opportunity of wronging his neighbor as deeply as I bave veen. W. Ss. HOW THEY SERVE DOGS IN VIRGINIA. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. New York, June 22, 1859, Yoar article in to-day’s paper relating to the atealing of dogs in the metropolis reminds me of the same practice im the South. I was nota little amused while residing in Riebmond, Va., on seeing the manner dogs are entrapped. Iwill tell you, On the 12th just, while returning to my hotel in the sbove city, I saw a crowd of pegroes and boys gathered around an object apparenuiy making frantic efforts to eecape from a net. By the time [ ar rived at the spot, the animal (which proved to ba a large Newroundland dog) was perfectly sttit—in fact I thought him dead. Asking a companion the manner of his capture—if the dog was rabid—he replizd that the anthorities were in the habit o° catching all canine aai mals seen running at large,aod confining them forty eight hours in pound, aod if not called for at the expiration of that period, they would be shot; but that it was atriotly pronibited for individuals not ia the employ of the corporation to capture the animals, under severe penalty. By this time my attention was attracted toward & large covered wagon draya by three mules, and ic which were confined the dogs. Riding in advance of the wagon in question were two mounted white men, direct ing four negroes, nrmed with a strong net attached toa boop, and baring bandie thereon, who now and then would adrouiy shrow it over an’ unguspecting dog who, on Suding nimseif ensared, would caimly re- sign bimself to capture, and ailow himself to be throwa into the cart, there to await further orders. By such means the entire city in twenty four hours will be entirely clear from the dogs, aad oa an ecozomical principle, thereby saving the city considerable cash, pase Supreme Court—Spectal Term.
