A GENTEEL MRS, CRUPP, As DEPICTED BY A SATURDAY REVIEWER. A gentleman, not very long ago, took apartments in one of the streets running out of a West-end square. The landlady seemed to be a highly respect able person somewhere over 30—a little over " stylish" perhaps, but in her class good taste and refinement are not always to be insisted upon. She was, with a profusion of chains and trinkets, a very constant and regular attendant upon the invaluable ministrations of that learned and profound man and accomplished servant of God, Dr. Cumming. Some times, by way of a holy pilgrimage and change of devotional climate, she would venture, with a couple of select friends, to subject her parched and ever thirsting soul to the refreshing dews of that great life-giver of the Bap tist communion, Mr. Spurgeon. Many were the Sunday evenings on which, in the course of her household rounds, with half pert, half smug, half coaxing, half anxious look, as she smoothed her apron, adjusted her well pasted hair, and inquired the wishes of her lodger, she gave him an account of the great benefits her soul had received during the course of the day from one or other of these prophets; and with a reproachful curiosity, ill-dis guised, left him, darting as she went little Parthian nuendoes against the smoking of cigars, and com munion with the devil, in the shape of " Essays and Reviews." So much so for the bright side of he picture. Now for the obverse. O ar f riend, having occasion to give a certain little dinner, bought a Stilton cheese and a large box of figs, of each of which a few mouthful were consumed. A week after, he inquired for the box of figs and the cheese, with a view (as the penny-a-liners say) to partake of luncheon. But neither cheese nor figs were forthcoming : Cheese, sir, what cheese—what figs—do you wish me to send for s ome, sir ? I will if you wish it, sir, with plea sure ; but it will be rather inconvenient just now, for Mary is out, and Sally is not dressed, sir. There was an astounding simplicity and calmness in her tone which for a moment overcame the not otherwise squeamish lodger. At last he said : Surely, Mrs. ---, you cannot have forgotten that a week ago I bought a cheese and a large box of figs, and that I only had them up once. Oh, sir ! those, sir I could not have supposed—why, of course, we've e,,ten them, sir —nine children and whole week, ends sir—and -inn the day b e f ore yesterday I had a party of fr to . But, Mrs. I never auth or i sed you to eat my cheese and my figs. Your cheese, your fig—authorised me, sir — certainly not. But I have been in the habit of living with gentlefolks, and not upon such mercenary terms. Surely, sir, you cannot have forgotten that the other day, when y ou h a d the influ enza, I sent you up a basin of ox - tail . soup unas k ed, as a delicate attention, of my own accord, si r.

MARLBOROUGH - STREET. EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT AN HOTEL.—Julius Lewry, described as a Prussian clerk, and attired in a suit of light clothes, was charged before Mr. Knox, by Sergeant Joy, 9 C, with stealing at the Hotel Conte, 21, Golden-square, a leather pocket book, containing notes and railway passes, a gold watch and chain, a purse, and other articles—the notes being for the sum of £2OO, and the other property of the value of £OO or £7o—belonging to a gentleman named Victor Dettini, at present in France. Sergeant Henry Joy, 9 C, said that, from information he received, he apprehended the prisoner at Gravesend, just as he was discharged from custody by the authorities there, having been given into custody on the charge of robbing an hotel in Paris, and the autho, ities not being able to de tain him. He told the prisoner that he was a police officer, and that he should take him into custody for a robbery at the Hotel Conte, 21, Golden-square, on the Bth April last. The prisoner replied, "Oh yes, I'll tell you all about it." He cautioned the prisoner in the usual way, and he Then said, " I did rob a gentleman at the time, and I let myself out of the house between 2 and 3 o'clock in the morning. I took the gentleman's luggage into my own room from his, and I then stole the three railway passes." The prisoner then said, "That duplicate is that of the gold chain I stole. The gold watch I sold in France for £3lss. The eye-glass is the one I took, also the gentleman's pass port and his pocket-book. I am very sorry for it, and it is the first time I have done anything wrong." The prisoner afterwards said he stole one purse, and there were lots of gold and silver coins in it, and a sovereign and a half, but no notes. The gentleman robbed (M. Dettini), however, said he had been robbed of £2OO in notes. In answer to Mr. Knox, Sergeant Joy said that the pro secutor had been telegraphed for, but ho wished for a re. mand. The prisoner was remanded for a week. 19.16.4 THI suN,rnormoN, SATURDAY EVENING,` MAY 30, 1863. How General Jackson was Wounded. (From the Richmond Inquirer, March _l3O General Jackson, having gone some distance in front of the line of skirmishers on Saturday evening, was returning about 8 o'clock, attended by his Staff and part of his couriers. The cavalcade was in the darkness of the night mistaken for a body of the enemy's cavalry, and fired upon by a regiment of his own corps. He was struck by three balls, one through the left arm, two inches below the shoulder joint, shattering the bone and severing the chief artery ; another ball passed through the same arm between the elbow and wrist, making its exit through the palm of the hand ; a third ball entered the palm of the right hand about its middle, passing through, and broke two bones. He was wounded on the Plank Road, about 50 yards in advance of the enemy. He fell from his horse, and was caught by Captain Wormley, to whom he remarked, "All my wounds are by my own men." He had given orders to fire at anything coming up the road, before he left the lines. The enemy's skirmishers appeared ahead of him, and he turned to ride back. Just then some one cried out, " Cavalry, charge !" and immediately the regiment fired. The whole party broke forward to ride through our line to escape the fire. Capt. Boswell was killed, and carried through the line by his horse, and fell among our own men. Col. Couchfield, chief of staff, was wounded by his side. Two couriers were killed. Major Pendleton, Lieuts. Morrison and Smith, escaped uninjured. General Jackson was immediately placed on a litter and started for the rear. The firing attracted the atten tion of the enemy, and was resumed by both lines. One litter-bearer was shot down, and the general fell from the shoulders of the men, receiving a injury severe contusion, adding t o the of the arm, and injuring his side severely. The enemy's fire of artillery on this point was terrible. Gen. Jackson was left for five minutes, until the fire slackened; then placed in an ambul ance and carried to the field hospital at Wilderness Run. He lost a large amount of blood, and at one time told Dr. M'Guire he thought he was dying, and would have bled to death, but a tourniquet was immediately applied. For two hours he was near pulseless from the shock. As he was being carried from the field, frequent inquiries were made by the soldiers " Who have you there ?" He told the doctor, " Da not tell the troops I am wounded." After the reaction, a consultation was held be tween Drs. Black, Coleman, - Walls, and M'Guire, and amputation was decided upon. He was asked, " If we find amputation necessary shall it be done at once ?" He replied, "Yes, certainly, Dr. M'Guire, do for me whatever you think is right." The opera tion was performed while he was under the influence of chloroform, and was borne well. He slept on Sun day morning, was cheerful, and in every way was doing well. He sent for Mrs. Jackson, asked minutely about the battle, spoke cheerfully of the result, and said : "If I had not been wounded, or had an hour more of daylight, I would have cut off the enemy from the road to the United States Ford, and we would have had them entirely surrounded, and they would have been obliged to surrender, or cut their way out. They bad no other alternative. My troops sometimes may fail in driving the enemy from a position, but the enemy always fail to drive my men from a position." This was said smilingly. He com plained this day of the fall from the litter; although no contusion or abrasion was apparent as the result of the fall. He did not complain of his wounds; never spoke of them unless asked. On Sunday evening he slept well. On Monday be was carried to Chancellor's house, near Guruess' depot. He was cheerful ; talked about the battle, gallant bearing of General Rhodes, and said that his Major-General's commission ought to date from Saturday, the grand charge of his old Stonewall brigade, of which he had heard ; asked after all his officers; during the day talked more than usual, and said—" Men who live through this war will be proud to say, ' I was one of the Stonewall bri gade,' to their children." He insisted that the term Stonewall belonged to them, and not to him. During the ride to Guineas he complained greatly of heat, and besides wet applications to his wounds, has zed that a wet nloth ha AnDlieri to his stomaeh which was done, greatly to his relief, as he ex pressed it. He slept well on Monday night, and eat with relish the next morning. On Tuesday his wounds were doing very well. He asked, " Can you tell me, from the appearance of my wounds, how long I will be kept from the field ?" He was greatly satisfied when told they were doing remarkably well. He did not complain of any pain in his side, and wanted to see the members of his staff, but was advised not. On Wednesday his wounds looked remarkably well. He expected to go to Richmond this day, but was prevented by rain. This night, While his surgeon, who had slept none for three nights, was asleep, he complained of naseau, and ordered his boy, Jim, to place a wet towel over his stomach. This was done. About daylight the surgeon was awakened by the boy saying, " the General is in great pain." The pain was in the right side, and due to incipient pneumonia and some nervousness, which he himself attributed to the fall from the litter. On Thursday Mrs. Jackson arrived, greatly to his joy and satis faction, and she faithfully nursed him to the end. By Thursday evening all pain had ceased. He suffered greatly from prostration. On Friday he suffered no pain, but prostration increased. WESTMINSTER. THE RIOT AT CREMORNE.—Messrs. Reginald Herbert, John Birkett, John Edward Savile, John Herbert Shaw cross, Charles Mott, and Charles Evan M'Dougal, were charged on remand, severally, with being concerned in a rict at Cremorne on " The Oaks" night, breaking glasses, assaulting the police and waiters, and other acts of distur bance and disorder. The court was densely crowded, and the bench was covered with legal gentlemen, amongst whom were Mr. Sleigh, barrister, who attended to prosecute. After some conversation as to how the case should be proceeded with, Mr. Sleigh stated that the prosecution was taken up by the solicitors to Mr. E. T. Smith, the proprietor of Cre morne, who had felt it his duty, both to himself and the public, to bring this case forward. Annually on the occa sion of the Derby and the Oaks being run at Epsom there was an unusually large attendance at Cremorne, and he might say that invariably there was a great riot there on that occasion ; although it was a well-known fact that for propriety, regularity, and decorum Cremorne was second to no place of amusement in the country. This riot oc curred on the night of the Oaks, and was of a most dis graceful description, and the breaking of glasses, assaults upon the police and upon unoffending persons, even the taking up and dashing down of pots contain ing most valuable exotics, shouting and whistling, were among the least of the things that occurred. The riot took place in the circular bar, and at a given signal conveyed by a loud whistle Birkett shouted out " Now for a jolly lark," Saville did the same, and the defendants and numberless others who had escaped commenced a general attack upon the waiters, the police, and others, committing outrages such as would have disgraced the lowest of the low, but which, committed by gentlemen, respectably connected, were such as to bring a blush upon the face of every one bearing the name of gentleman. It was not necessary to elaborate the facts of the case, but he would show by numerous witnesses that the whole of the defendants were engaged in the riot, that, excited by cries from Mott, M'Dougal, and others of "Now to the rescue," charge after charge was made upon everyone sur rounding them ; sticks and every weapon was used, and the damage done was incalculable. The riot lasted over an hour, till at length the defendants were overpowered and conveyed to the station. The learned counsel concluded by observing that Mr. Smith had conducted every place place of amusement he had been proprietor of with the strictest regularity, and were such scenes as this to be per mitted all order at such places as Cremorne would cease to exist; and, instead of being what they were intended for—places of amusement—they would become perfect bear gardens. If it were found that any of these gentlemen before the magistrate had not committed the acts imputed to them, then no one would be more pleased than Mr. Smith, but as he anticipated all the acts imputed to them would be distinctly proved, then it was for the magistrate to say what should be the punishment these persons deserved, and he hoped it would be such a punishment as should be a warning to all others similarly disposed. Several witnesses were then called, and the case was pro ceeding when our report left, and seemed likely to last some hours. THAMES. A VERY STALE CHARGE OF FELONY.—Jane Whitson, a very respectable young woman, the wife of a bricklayer, and dwelling at No. 8, Plumstead• park, West Ham, Essex, was brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with stealing a sovereign about the minth of April, 1861, and two sove reigns in or about the month of August of the same year. Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, conducted the prosecution; Mr. Wilson, solicitor, defended the accused. The prosecutor in this case, Allan Gathergood, is a brick layer, of No. 15, Mountford-street, Whitechapel. In the year 1861 he lodged in a house in Whitechapel, of which the prisoner's husband was the landlord. On Good Fri day, 1861, there was a sovereign in his box, which he kcpt in his bedroom. On the following day he went to the box for the purpose of adding a second sovereign to his savings. The first one was gone. He mentioned his loss to his land lady, the prisoner, who declared she knew nothing of it, and that it was a very bad job for him to lose his money. Soon afterwards he lost a purse with some money in it. In August of the same year he missed two sovereigns from his box. It was not forced open. On both occasions the lock was opened and the box locked up again. He mentioned the loss of the two sovereigns to his landlady,and she said, as she had done before, that she knew nothing of it, and that it was a bad job. _ _ In cross-examination by Mr. Wilson, the prosecu tor said that six weeks after his second loss he charged a washerwoman, named Eliza Groom, with stealing the money, and she denied it. About twelve months ago he was told the prisoner had stolen the money, and wrote to her about it. He went to her dwell ing two days afterwards, and she demanded to know by what authority he charged her. The box had a common lock. Three or four men slept in the same room. He knew one of them had a key that fitted his box. When he ac cused the washerwoman of the robbery she said her husband knew all about it. Eliza Groom, a laundress, the wife of Herman Groom, of No. 11, Mountfort• street, Whitechapel, said she used to work and char for the prisoner in 18fi1. She recollected Mr, Gathergood accusing her of stealing £3. Before the first sovereign was stolen the prisoner said she was going to take a sovereign out of Mr. Gatbergood's box, and she should borrow keys of a Mrs, Parry. She saw the prisoner open the prosecutor's box twice, but did not see what she took out. After the prisoner opened the box the prosecutor spoke to her, and said he had lost £3 out of it. Mr. Woolrych—Why did you not mention this before ? Mrs. Groom —Because Mrs. Whitson owed me money. Mr. Woolrych—l shall stop this case. I don't believe this woman. If her story was to be credited it would amount constructively to compounding a felony. Because Mrs. Groom could not obtain payment of her account she commits a felony. Mrs. Groom was about to address the magistrate, who told her to go about her business, and discharged the pri soner. SHIPPING—This Day.

How THE CONFEDERATES GET THEIR SUPPLIES ! —The Richmond Whig, of May 12, says :--From every side we hear that the spoils left by Hooker's army exceed those on any previous battlefield, not excepting the engagements around Richmond. lv of only an immense number of small arms—variously estimated from 30,000 to 50,000 —but an almost infinite quantity of overcoats, knap sacks, cap s , and blankets. An idea of the spoils may be gathered from the statement made to us by an artillery offi cer in regard to the men of his battery. He says that the country is so strewn with blankets, &c., that his men in marching from one fi e ld to another, since the late battles, have never cumbered themselves with anything, being Baas that whereve r th ey may camp for the night plenty of blan kets and overcoats will be found. Shall these things be gathered up, or thrown away, left to rot, or to be collected by negroes and citizens, who, after all the troubl3 of getting them together, are to be insulted for so doing? We trust most most sincerely that Quartermaster Mayers will show a proper efficiency in this important matter. THE GENERAL'S LAST MOMENTS. Oa Sunday morning, when it was apparent that he was rapidly sinking, Mrs. Jackson was informed of his condition. She then had free and full con verse with him, and told him he was going to die. He said, " Very good, very good. It is all right." He had previously said, " I consider these wounds a blessing. They were given me for some good and wise purpose. I would not partaiththis preachingenaiticou a ld.' t ' He asked of Major Pendleton, i , Who headquarters to-day ?" He se nt messages to all the Generals. He expressed a wish to be buried in Lex ington, in the valley of Virginia. During delirium his mind reverted to the battle field, and he sent orders to Gen. A. P. Hill to prepare for action, and to Major Hawks, his Commissary, and to the sur. geons. He frequently expressed to his aids hi s wish that Major-Gen. Ewell should be ordered to command his crops. His confidence in Gen. E we n was very great, and the manner in which h e spo k e of him showed that he had duly considered the matter. ARRIVAL OF LIEUT.• GENERAL JACKSON'S REMAINS- MANIFESTATIONS OF RESPECT, Yesterday was a sad day in Richmond. Sunday afternoon the report of General J ackson's death was current, but though preceded by the announcement from several pulpits that the condition of the illus trious chieftain was deemed critical, no one was willing to credit the tidings of hia death without full assurance of the correctness of the unwelcome news. The city papers yesterday morning contained the sad, sad anneuncement, and all doubts being thus pervaded the com- I n accordance with the reco mmendation 1 9 was and 8111281 Pea large concourse of ll r m e u m n o i v ty ed . , gloom and sorrow of the ded after 10 o'clock 13M la in d a i y e o s r a B, n ae d ltlw g b e eu n esn t i l n e el m s en assembled on Broadstreet to witness the arrival of the special train, expected, with the remains of the departed hero. A telegraph despatch from Milford was, however, received, con veying the information that the train having been delayed at that point, would not arrive until near 4 o'clock p.m. This information was communicated to the crowd, who soon dispersed to their homes. About 3 o'clock Broad-street and the Capitol Square were again thronged by ladies and gentlemen. At 20 minutes to 4 o'clock the train turned the curve, and the depot and other bells were tolled. In a few minutes the train arrived at the corner of Fourth-street, where it was halted. The following officers were in charge of the corpse— Of Lieut.-Gen. Jackson's Staff— Major S. Pendleton, Adjutant-General in charge; Dr. Hunter M'Guire, Medical Director : Major W. J. Hawks, Lieuts. Morrison and Smith, Aids. On part of the army— Major D. B. Bridgford, Capt. IL K. Douglas. On part of Commonwealth of Virginia— Dr. Jonn Mayo, Aid to the Governor, Col. John C. Shields. The coffin was covered with wreaths, plac©d upon it by the ladies of Ashland. With as little delay as possible, the body was removed under military escort to the Governor's Mansion, followed by, per haps, the larg,est assemblage of persons ever col lected within the Capitol .square, The City Co7.:.ncil held a special meeting yester day forenoon, at which the following proceedings took place : The President announced the melancholy tidings of the death of the lamented Lieut.-Gen. Thomas J. Jackson•—spoko briefly of the invaluable services rendered to the Confederacy by the departed hero, and the duty of the Council, in view of the sad event which caused his death, to pass sui table re solutions of respect to his memory. General Randolph said it was usual on similar oc casions to appoint a committee to draft suitable re solutions, and he would move that one be appointed to consist of three or five members, es might seem best. The President, adopting the suggestion for the larger number, appointed us said committee Messrs. Randolph, Hill, Scott, Haskins, and Glazebrook. The committee, after a brief retirement, returned, and, through their chairman, offered the following resolutions, which were unanimously adopted : Resolved, By the Council of the City of Richmond, That, profoundly impressed with the great calamity sustained by the country in the death of Lieut.- General Thomas J. Jackson, and desirous of ex pressing their sense of his virtues and his services in the most emphatic manner, they think that jus tice to his memory requires them to refrain from an attempt at eulogy, which no language can ade quately express. They leave, therefore, to others further removed from the times in which he lived, and when his public career shall have borne its full fruits, to portray character and conduct rarely equalled in the world's history. Resolved, That they tender to his afflicted widow their most heartfelt condolence, and beg leave, as citizens of the Republic, to share in her grief for a loss alike irreparable to her and to the country. On motion, the Council adjourned. THE FUNERAL OP JACKSON. The city was again, on yesterday, the scene of another tumultuous outburst of mourning, and the last offices of honour to the departed hero were per formed with fitting magnificence. In no public ceremony, not even the grand display which at tended the inauguration of the monument to Wash ington some years ago, has Richmond been rendered more memorable than upon this occasion, when every branch of the Confederate and State Govern ments, with an army of bronzed and hardy heroes, and the whole city pouring forth its living tribute, agei and young of both sexes, joined in the pageant and gave it all the imposing grandeur which sym pathy, sorrow, love, and admiration united, could bestow. In accordance with arrangements made upon Monday, the procession was formed upon Capitol square at ten o'clock, stretching along Monument avenue from the Governor's mansion, out upon Grace-street, and consisted of the following civil and military bodies : Public guard, with armoury band, followed by the Nine teenth and Fifty. sixth Virginia infantry, Major Wren's battalion of cavalay, and the Richmond Lafayette artillery, all preceded by a full band. Hearse drawn by four white horses, appropriately capari soned, the hearse draped and plumed, and the coffin wrapped and decoratel with flowers. Pall-bearers, consisting of the Staff of the lamented Hero, and several other officers of high rank, wearing the insignia of mourning. Carriages, containing—first, his Excellency the President, and the family of the deceased, followed by perso nal friends and distinguished admirers; various chiefs of Departments, State and Confederate ; Civil, military and judicial ; the Mayor of the city and members of tho Council. On either side, and in the rear, an immense throng of ladies and gentlemen, children, servants, and sol diers, mingled ready to move along with the proces sion. The banners were draped with crape, and the swords of the military officials were draped at the hilt. The artillery bore the sad insignia ; the arms of the infantry were reversed ; the drums were muf fled, and at the given hour a gun stationed beneath the monument boomed forth the signal for motion. Gen. Geo. W. Randolph, Chief Marshal of the ceremony, proceeded to the front, and the cavalcade moved slowly out from Governor-street, through the Mansion-gate. The bells of the city commenced tolling, and soon a melancholy dirge swelled forth in moving tones from the leading corps of musicians. The procession passed down Governor to Main-street, turning up the latter, and proceeding as far as Second-street, The streets were crowded with peo ple ; stores wore closed. As the pageant moved along, and from many windows floated flags draped in mourning. The flags upon the public buildings remained as on Monday, at half-mast. The scene on Main-street was beyond adequate description, so impressive, so beautiful, so full of stirring associa tions, blending with the martial dirges of the bands, the gleam of musket, rifle and sabre drawn, the sheen of black cannon, thousands of throbbing hearts, and the soul of sorrow that mantled over all. From Second-street, through which the procession partly passed, it wheeled into Grace-street, down which it returned to Capitol-square, entering by Monument-gate. At different stages of the obse quies the cannon, which remained stationed at the foot of a monument, pealed out in tones of thunder, which heightened the effect of the tolling bells, the solemn music, and the grand display. The hearse being drawn up in front of the Capitol, the coffin was removed to the hall of the House of Representatives, where it was laid in state in front of the Speaker's seat. Thousands crowded into the building, many bearing splendid bouquets with which to adorn the coffin, and at night hundreds were turned away, after hours of fruitless efforts, without seeing the face of the beloved departed warrior. The remains will be sent to Lexington this morning. Ail the Courts in Richmond passed resolutions of respect to the memory of Jackson, and adjourned to attend the ceremonials. OUR DEAD HERO. Since the death of Washington, no similar event has so profoundly and sorrowfully impressed the people of Virginia as the death of Jackson. The surprise and admiration with which his earlier feats in the war were regarded had long since ripened into cordial gratitude for his services,boundless con fidence in his capacity, enthusiastic affection for his person, and sincere veneration for his character. They had come, too, to regard him as one of those men of destiny who have a mission to fulfil, and who bear a charmed life. The Providence on which he so firmly relied had seemed to shield him from harm, and there was a sort of superstiti ous faith that he would pass unscathed through all dangers, to the end. They were not, therefore, prepared for the cruel mischance that struck him down, and still less for the fatal result which has so speedily followed. There is not one loyal heart in all this Commonwealth—not one in all this Con federo.cy, that has not, or will not, sicken and sink with grief at his fall. Were it possible to restore him, we believe there are thousands who would give their own lives to ransom him from the cap tivity of death. For all this love for him living and all this grief for him dead, there was reason enough ; for in the great struggle which now engages hearts and hands, ho was himself e power equal to many regiments of armed oa men. He had thrown into it the energies int f • ellect. mighty spirit, the resources of a g What others did or attempted from 'm ho did from great t lses of am b;tion, patriotism, or sense of duty► reverential compulsion of conscience, and a convic tion of obligation to his Maker. r He did it with all and body. So actuated, the strength of mind, he thought not of conses:uuellnoreys to himself, of dangerk to be won—and so to be encountered, or g acting, he left nothing undone that was possible of accomplishment. There is no need now to rehearse his deeds; they are fresh in the memories of all. But, memorable as those deeds are, and destined to become lessons for military students for long ages to come, it was not perhaps so much what, in his brief but crowded career, he accomplished, as the manner in which he did whatever most difficult feat lay before, and the ability he thus manifested for more arduous and momentous achievements, that explains the wonder ful growth of his fame, and will give him a place in history amid the most renowned heroes and cap• tains of all ages. The old mother State that bore him is not sterile, the Confederacy for which he fought is fruitful of men, but it is not to be expected that this war will produce or this generation see one who in all re spects will fill the great space he has left void, Others may have his genius to devise, others his energy to execute, others his purity of life, and others his stern and solemn self-consecration to the cause, but we may hope in vain to find all these united in one, and their potency so felt by his men as that, his will moving and his spirit animating all, they should become, as Jackson's men were, the very limbs of his body, moving and acting as he willed, almost without conscious volition of their own. Still, let none suppose that because this great sol dier will no more lead his invincible battalions against the merciless and murderous invaders of our country, we shall be unable to defend ourselves against the hosts who muster for our destruction. The same Providence who gave us Jackson still rules the affairs of men, and though He has taken the mighty chieftain from us, He leaves us his illus trious example to follow, and his grand spirit to fire every heart and nerve every arm. The men who for two years have felt the influence of such a pre sence, whose hearts burn with glowing memories of what he was, will never yield to mortal foe. Jack son, though dead, will still fight in the men whom he so often led to victory. PROPOSED STATUE TO JACKSON. The Richmond Sentinel, of the 14th, says that measures are already initiated to obtain a bronze statue of the late Gen. Jackson, and place it on the plateau in front of the south portico of the Capitol. The remains of Gen. Jackson were conveyed to the Ceatral care yesterday, en route to his late home in Lexington. They were accompanied by several members of his Staff and personal friends. The Secret of a " Skedaddle !" In the 43d of his very able series of letters on " The Arts of Writing, Reading, and Speaking," the editor of the Law 7imes takes occasion in the number of that journal for to-day, to discuss "The Oratory of the Platform," And we cannot but re cognise in the following passage a shadowing forth of a reason for the speedy panics, such as those which have so often sent the Federal troops in coward flight from the field of battle, or in more familiar phrase, skedaddling. The writer, speak ing of a crowd or mob, observes : " Here it is that you may witness the most striking proofs of the power of sympathy. No observant and reflectiag man can doubt the presence and potency of this influence of mind upon mind, operating through some unknown medium within certain undefined limits. The proofs are rife in the records of the past, and may be seen around us continually. It is an influence, to which, as it appears to me, sufficient importance has not been riven by historians, or philosophers and its pre sence would probably be found to solve many problems otherwise inexplicable. That influence seems to be exercised by mere contact, without communica tion through the five senses, and to be multiplied by num bers, so that the emotions of all are imparted to each. This would explain the entire series of those perplexing pheno mena which are seen . in popular phrenzies, delusions, and manias, and of which a panic will offer the most intelligible explanation. It is a fact that fear is thus communicated by some imperceptible influence. An incident that would not cause a nerve of one man to quiver, will make ten men turn pale, annihilate the courage of twenty men, cause a hundred men to run away, and deprive a thousand men of reason, what is this but fear operating by multipli cation of fear ? The small fright felt by each influences, by sympathy, all the rest, and the result is the accumulated fear of the entire mass imparting itself to each one and causing the terror that is not the less real because it is un founded. Precisely the same operation that causes panic is ever at work in all mixed assemblies, influencing them by other emotions, and so great is it, that even the most powerful intellects, habitually under the sway of reason, find it difficult to be resisted." Naval and Military Intelligence. PORTSMOUTH, May 29. The Right Hon; Earl de Grey and Ripon, Sec retary of State fa. War, has been continuing his inspection to-day Ly visiting the various forts and barracks in this garrison, as well as those in course of construction at Portsdown-hill. his lordship also visited the gun-wharf and ordnance establish meats, being accompanied during the day by Col.

The Geyser, paddle-steamer,CommandEr Pechell, arrived at Spithead with supernumeraries for Plymouth. She came into the harbour to coal this afternoon. WooLwicil, May 29. The Woolwich division of enrolled pensioners having completed their annual course of eight days' drill, assembled on the common at eleven o'clock this morning, under the command of Major D. H. Mackinnon ; and after inspection went through a complete series of battalion and other evolutions, comprising company and file firing, &c., 16 rounds of ammunition having been served out to each man. The division, which contains upwards cf 400 rank and file, is now in a very efficient state. The Dee, steam store-vessel, having been under extensive repairs at this yard for several months ; is now completed for recommission, and proceeded down the Nore, this day, on a trial trip to test her engines and machinery, under the direction of Mr. Banister, of the engineer department, the result being in every respect satisfactory. The Balaklava, steam store-vessel, belonging to the ordnance department, is ordered to leave the Royal Arsenal to-morrow, with a cargo of war stores, for home stations, and a complete battery of 68. pounder guns, of the old smooth-bore pattern, for the defences near Pembroke.

PILGRIMS BY RAILWAY !—Ephesus was enlivened for some time lately by the presence of a large number of Armenian pilgrims to the holy tombs at Ephesus, who wow make their yearly pilgrimage by railway.

THIRD EDITION UN OFFICE, SIX O'CLOCK, The Accident on the London, Brighten, and South - Coast, Railway. The following communication has this afternoon been received from Mr. Frederick Slight, the SSecre• tary of this Company : I have at present no more than a formal re port of the account, from which it would seem that the train leaving Brighton at 5 p.m. yesterday• arrived at Croydon safely, and that the Victoria portion of it, consisting of 16 vehicles, left Croydon four minutes late. Nothing occurred until its arrival within the distant signal ut the Streatham-common station,when the engine began to ogcillate consider ably,and immediately after left the line, turned over on itssi :e and then exploded, which of course dragged the carriages off the line, seriously injuring several of the passengers. Mrs Chilver, of New Burling ton-street, was killed, and also two men of the Grenadier Guards; 20 other soldiers, and seven other passengers were also more or less injured. The driver and foreman of the train are both injured dangerously, but the two guards escaped. The matter is of course being investigated. At present the cause does not appear clear, as the permanent way is believed to have been in good order, and the engine was one of several constructed by this company in 1858 for running on this portion of the railway.

EASTERN BENGAL The tenth ordinary general meeting of the share holders was held yesterday, at the offices, 24A, Gresham-street, Mr. Leith in the chair. The report, which has been published, was taken as read. THE CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said he had much pleasure in congratulating the shareholders upon the progress of the company, and now that they had reached the culminating point he begged to assure them of two important facts—first, that the railway had been completed in a most substantial and admirable manner ; and, secondly, that it had proved so tar to be a remune rative undertaking and a commercial success.• There had been an increased development of traffic since the opening, and the receipts had been very large in comparison with the time the line had been opened. The gross earnings had been at the rate of 5 per cent. upon the capital and debenture debt, and the txpendaure might be taken at 25 or 30 per cent. upon that =cunt. He had every reason to anticipate that they would very soon have more than the guaranteed interest of 5 per cent. The district through which the line ran was one of the greatest thoroughfares in India for traffic, being the through route to Calcutta. The object of the line was to anticipate that traffic, and which object bad been achieved. The great popu lation of Bengal were beginning to use the line. The gross mileage of the line was Ba. per train mile, and that he considered very satisfactory, see ing that the line had only been opened four months. Upon the application of natives living along the line and at the request of the Government, five new sta tions had been opened. The station at Calcutta was completed, and several other stations were being proceeded with rapidly. Having referred to the services of the chief engineer, Mr. Purdon, to whom it was proposed to present a testimonial, he observed that during the past five years the com pany had passed through great difficulties, but now the company was in a most satisfactory position. Mr. Purdon, the chief engineer, was of opinion that they had a splendid property, and the agent in India expected to double the returns within the year. He next referred to the subject of the eaten. sions, and the correspondence with the Government of India relating thereto having been read, he went on to say that the company would be willing to construct the extension to Burhamgrooter with a 5 per cent. guarantee, but as Sir Charles Wood at present would not give more than 41- the board did not feel justified in recommending to the share holders that the extensions should be carried out on those terms. Mr. LANGLEY Seconded the motion for the adop tion of the report. In answer to questions, The CHAIRMAN said the Government had con sented to a concurrent audit, and that the board would not lose sight of the extension question. The report was then adopted. A resolution was next carried to the effect that the shareholders approved of the conduct of the board in reference to the negooiations with the Govern ment of India on the extension question. A vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Purdon the engineer, and the chairman, and the m ee ti ng separated.

TUE STARVATION THEORY.—The census returns show the remarkable fact that the Southern States were hot only self-supporting in regard to eereals during the year 1860, when the culture of cotton and tobacco was n its greatest activity, but that the yield was actually 55,000 bushels more than the consumption. It is reas.oll - to assume that since the rebellion the production of these cereals has been largely increased under the influence of a prudent foresight on the part of the residents in. the rebel States to make provision against that theory of starv ing them by boxing them up closely from the rest of the world within their own territory, which has long been a favourite notion with many well-meaning but poorly in formed individuals. To crush the rebellion by starving 10,000,000 of human beings in the rebel States would bo an effective mode of doing so, also more pleasant and humane than the carnage of the battle-field ; but, in view of the fact t t t h h i oaenti loyal i h yt capacity for producing exceeds that of consump tion, process, and trying to the patience of isiltabmesa slow .The statistics of our cereal productions seem to favour the opinion that fighting instead of " starv ing" must ba relied on for crushing the rebellion,--.Veto Y o rk 11 - crald.
