DEATH 01' GEN. IJUOOKE.
On Sunday morning la-t ue issued from
our otlico a slip communicating to our city
leaders and exchanges tue iimt.ful intelli
gencc of the sudden death of the l.ac Mnj
en. George M. Hrooko Commanding the
tith Militaiy Depaitmcnl of the United
Stnt es.
He died at his residence in this city on the
mor nine of the 9ih lost. at hulf-pat

hy the teimimtion of di-ca-e contracted
in his younger days while in the service of
his countty in the tented held.
For moie than forty years had this di-lin-cui-hpd
soldier been in public service. A na-
tivi of Virginia i o i rcrt ' 'learmy a Cap-

mi incident of heroism of our lamented
General Vthich was looked upon as
Lumg the most prai-ennrthr exploit of the
war

liIit which nt onre revealed the enemy nc-compli-hing

inc eploit.
Since tho war of 1312. tha General Ins
pecn much seivice. In Indian warfare he
he proved hiinsef ns efficient as when bat
tling 'Wellington'. conducting heroes and
by his energy bravery nnd fidelity gained
for himself the highest Brevet known to our
service.
For nearly two years pa-t he Ins been the
commanding officer upon our frontier and a
resident of our city during which time he
has enjoyed the confidence nnd esteem
of nil who knew him; his amenity of man-
ners kindness of di-position and quietness
of life has secured for him kind remembrance
in tha hearts of our citizens tint time will
not obliterate. Sun. .2iii. .Larger.
The London- Tbncr -peaking of the great
Crystal Palace says: 'The vast fhbric may

distuibingils own conclusions on the reality
of what it sees for the whole looks like a

i egards the popularity of Judge Evnns in

on the Judge to tun. with assurance that he
will be warmly supported by the patriotic
