DEATHS ABRCAD. 
At Rome, the celebrated female artist,

[March 1, 
At sea, on board his majesty’s ship Rattles 
snake, William Warden, esq. a post-captaim 
in his majesty’s navy, and commander of that 
ship. The death of this gallant and en- 
terprising young officer will be deeply 
Jamented by all who knew him, and may 
be considered as a great loss to the British 
navy, of which he promised to be one of 
the brightest ernaments. Captain Warden 
had the singular honour and good fortune 
to be trained under the personal care of 
that gallant accomplished officer, Sir Edward 
Pellew, since his entrance into the navy, 
in 1793, and shared the glory of all that 
officer’s ‘brilliant atchievements, till his 
arrival to the supreme command in the Indian 
seas. The loss of this gallant officer is 
the more to be lamented, as having been 
caused by excessive fatigue and exposure in 
the execution of his duty, during a violent 
gale of -wind he enscuntered in his passage 
to Madras, in which the crew were under 
the necessity of cutting away the main and 
mizen masts, for the preservation of the ship. 
At Adams, Ferkshire county, Massachu- 
setts, North America, Mr. J. Peters, aged 
107 years. He enjoyed an uncommon share 
of health, strength, and activity, and was 
in possession of all his faculties entire, until 
the very moment that terminated his life.. 
At Schenectady, North America, Mrs. 
Elizabeth Gowans, in the 104th year of 
her age. In her. we have an instance of 
a person not more remarkable for longevity, 
than for the retention of her natural faculties. 
She read without spectacles until her death, 
and but two years ago she entered the field 
and cut grass with a scythe. 
At his, seat, near the Schuylkill, North 
America, General Peter Muhlenburg, 61. 
This gentleman, in early life, yielded to 
the wishes of his venerable father, the late 
Reverend Dr. Henry Muhienburg, the 
Patriarch of the German Lutheran Church, 
in Pennsylvania, by becoming a minister 
of the Episcopal Church in which capacity- 
he acted in an acceptable manner in Virginia, 
until the year 1776, when he became a 
member of the convention, and afterwards 
a colonel of a regiment of that state. In 
the year 1777, he was appointed brigadier- 
general in the revolutionary army, in which 
capacity he acted until the termination of 
the war gave liberty and independence to 
his country, at which time he was promoted 
to thé rank of major-general. After the 
peace, he was chosen by his fellow-citizens 
of Pennsylvania (his native state) to fill, 
in succession, the various stations of vice 
president of the supreme executive council 
of Pennsylvania, member of the house of 
representatives, and senator of the United 
States: and afterwards appointed by the 
president of the United States, supervisor 
of the excise in Pennsylvania; and finally, 
collector of the port of Philadelphia. :
