Patrick Crowley, one of the most famous of Nevada's prisoners, died at the State Prison this morning, from a hemorrhage of the lungs. Crowley has been a victim of consumption for the past two or three years and this fact has been set forth to support his application for a pardon; but it did not avail. 1 )eath came suddenly.
