Death of DR.. ThOS. Hammond.

A deep gloom was cast over this COM
munity on Friday last by the announce
ment of this melancholy event. Under
any circumstances Death brings in its train
sorrow and distress, but the circumstances
attending the decesse Of the lamented Dr..
Hammond were of nature to elicit more
than the ordinary feeling. By his death,
the community has lost valuable citizen,
his family devoted Husband and Father.
the Medical Profession bright ornament,
and the church to which he was attached
an exemplary member.
The event is thus announced in the
Baltimore Clipper of Saturday:
Sudden Death ofG Stranger. Coro-
ner Essender yesterday morning held an
inquest over the body Of DR.. Thomas
Hammond, gentleman about 80 years Of
age, who had died suddenly al the Wheat
field Inn, Howardstreer. DR.. Hammond
is citizen fShepherds town, Va, where
his family reside, and came on to Allen.
andria, Va, on Thursday, where he left
daughter at boarding school, and then
proceeded to Baltimore, arriving in the
evening in apparent good health. About
two o'clock yesterday morning, he rang
The bell for servant, who went TO his
room. He complained ofgreat pain in the
chest, and requested Prof. Chew to be
sent for. This was done, and at bis fur
Their request ligatures were tied so as TO
stop in a measure the flow Of blood 10 the
head but in about twenty minutes, be-
fore Prof. Chew arrived, he was corpse
He had been troubled with an affection Of
the heart, which ne doubt caused his
death. The jury rendered a verdict of
-" death from some cause unknown" His
remains were taken to the residence OF his
sisters on Paca, between Saratoga and
Mulberry SITS.

and to several of the individual States OF

Of the most valuable and precious works
IN literature and science eXlant in the
French language. 10 euumerate them
here would be impossible, and TO convey
any adequate idea Of the richness OF their
contents would of itself require volume
of no meagre limits. Many OF them, m
deed, have been produced upon scale OF
magni6cence that cannot be initiated IN
our new and practical country; nor can
thew be estimated by money valuation,
hioh as that would undoubtedly appear.
The engravings alone, by which they are
illustrated, give indications ola llberality
of expenditure for such purposes of which
nothing is known amongst us.
Nor is this all. NJ. Vatlemare has
Just completed task that has cost him
several months of the most intense appli-
cation, and for which we feel assured our
nation will acknowledge that debt of
gratitude is due him. One thousand and
twenty-five medals, struck by order of the
French government during the period of
time from 1894 to ls49 inclusively, have
been classified and arranged, and a full,
accurate, and comprehensive descriptive
catalogue Of them has been written out by
him. These medals exhibit the most
exquisite artistic skill and amongst their
designs embrace the portraits of as many
as one hundred and fifty-nine eminentand
distinguished personages. They form
consecutive suggestive history of the long
period of time We have named, viz: three
hundred and fifty-six years. Is it not
truly gratifying to know that in all the
revolutions Of that country, these monu-
ments of kingly munihcence and power
should have been preserved as sacred relies
of the past !--RepubHc.

SignORina ParOdi, the Rival OF
Jenny Lind

Our readers have doubtless heard of
young cantatrice, Signorina Parodi, who
has suddenly achieved great reputation
in Europe, and is engaged to sing at New
York. during the coming winter. She
was invited TO London in 1913, when
Jenny Lind was carrying every thing be-
fore her, and j, was though, that no one
else would be able 10 attract attention, and
the result is said TO have been complete
triumph. Signorina Parodi Is native
of the land of Columbus, and is now about
twenty-five years of age. She has sung
during the last two or three seasons, at
London, Verona, and La Scala, Milan,
exciting in every place a tremendous fu-
rore. On one occasion the enthusiasm
of her hearers was exhibited in way thai
equals any thing related of the admirers
of Jenny Lind.

1. O. O. F. Procession at snickersvilIe

We had the pleasure of being present
on Thursday last, at the highly agreeable
and interesting services incident to the
celebration of the day, by the !. o. o. F.
of Snickersville, Loudoun county. The
Brethren from the neighboring Lodges of
Loudoun, Fauquier and Jefferson, were
generally in attendance. The Procession,
numbering some eighty Brethren, was
formed at an early hour. under the direc-
ton of Col. Dowell as Chief Marshal, and
Messrs. Hampton and Cline, as Assist
ants, and marched from the Hall, preced
ed by the Leesburg Band, TO beautiful
grove near the town. After the usual ex-
ercises, the large company in attendance
were favored with one Of the most piacti-
cal, eloquent and interesting addresses
that we have ever listened to on similar
occasion, from the Rev. William Evans,
of Leesburg. His address was pertinent
and to the point. He said all that was
proper TO be sad, and nothing more
and nothing less. After the services at,
the grove had been concluded, the pro-
cession again reurned 10 the Lodge room,
and from thence TO the Hotel Of Capt.
NJ GORE, where a most sumptuous and
bountiful rePast had been prepared by the
worthy host, and at the lberality Of Snck-
ersvile Lodge. TO all who were in at
tendance. the occasion was one Of plea
sure, and we hope may rebound TO tie
profit of the worthy Brothers Of Suckers

Virginia and Secession.

The Charleston Mercury, speaking 0
secession. and naming the difcien, States
to be depended on in the movement, says
that Virginia will be "true 10 her ancient
renomn." We thank thee, Jew, for
teaching us the word Virginia will be
" true to her ancient renown." Within
her borders the seeds of Revolution were
first planted tie voices of her sons first
were raised against the tyranny and op-
preston Of her unnatural Mother; her
own eloquent Henry with the fires Of pa
trlotism burning within his bosom, first
dared to denounce the tyranny of Eng land,
declaring :" if this be treason, make the
most of it," The first in the war of In
dependence, Virginia has ever been watch
ful of the rich legacy, The offspring of that
struggle. She has ever been true TO the
Union and to the Constitution, and she
will ever be. The Mother Of the Union,
she will ever be found ready and eager to
resist any and every sacriIegious attempt
to destroy this Gairest fabric of the earth
this model government. AS well might
the mother be called upon to stab to the
heart her frst-born-the offspring of her
own loins--as Virginia be asked TO engage
in war against the Union.
If then the seceders of the South calcu
late upon the assistance or cooperation of
Virginia, they reckon without their host.

Latest from California.

Before putting our paper to press we
received the announcement Of the arrival
of the Cherokee from California, with two
weeks later newsstand 81, 100000 of Col
Dust. The difficulties at Sacramento had
been settled, and nothing is said Of the
great conRagration before reported, which
we take it was incorrect. The Mayor OF
the town (Bigelow) reported to have been
shot in the riot was only wounded, and is
likely to recover from the effect of his
wounds. The funeral obsequies in honor
of Genl. Taylor are represented as having
been very imposing. The procession
contained $4,000 persons. The mines are
still Welding rich harvests to the miners.

Operation of the Fugitive Slave Bill.

The Law so far as it has been tested,
has operated very advantageously to South
ern shareholders, Two cases have al
ready arisen, one in n. York, the other
in Harrisburg; and in both, the provisions
of the Law have been very speedily and
summary carried out, In the first case
the slave Hamlet was brought 10 Bal;l-
more city TO the owner under the charge
of the U. S. Marshall, and al the expense
of the U. States the attorney for the
owner having made oath tina, he feared a
rescue. The second case was that of the
Clarke Fugitives, belonging TO Mr.. lay
lor, who were the cause of the great ROT
in Harrisburg some weeks since.
Mr.. Taylor after the passage Of the
new law claimed them under its proyi-
sions, and having proven their identity, in
a short time landed them safely in Virgin,

Fugitive Slave Bill for Mr. Mason, thus as
cribes to another prominent gentleman the
honor of having framed it.
"Rumor, pretty well authenticated,
gives credit to Charles ]. Faulkner. Esq,
of Berkeley, principally if not solely, as
the author of the fugitive slave bill. No
man has felt more sens'blv the necessity
for such law, he having experienced,
heretofore. The impossibihry Of getting

his endeavors for a remedy, and to his
able report Oh the subject when lie was

been made TO attract the attention of Con
