Death Of General Riley.

Breyet Major General Bennett Riley, U.
S. A., died at Buffalo on Thursday even
! ing, at the advanced age Of 66 years.
Gen, Riley has filled a prominent niche
in the history of the Milttry heroes ef the
country. Born in 1900 in ST. Mary's coun-
ty, Md, he entered the Army at an early
age. On the l9.h of January, 1918, he
was appointed Ensign in the Rifles; IN March
| 1918, he was rated as third Lieutenant; in
| April, 1914, become second Lieutenant in
the First Rifles; and was promoted to the
| First Lcutenaacy in March, 1917. In Au-
gust 1915, he reached q Capraincy. in the
Fifth Infantry, and in 1922 was transferred
to the Sixth Infantry. He distinguished
himself in an engagement, under Col Leay-
enworth, with the 4Arickaree Indians iE Au-
gust, 1898; and was made Breyet Major for
ten years faithful service, on the 9th Of
August 1928. Passing through the grades
of Major in the Fourth Infantry, (Decam-
her, 1889, he was finally promoted as
Brevet Colonel; in February, 1914, to rack
from the day (June 9, 1910, on which WAS
fought the battle of Chokachatta, in Flori-
da. In this action Col. Riley was particu-
larly distins ushed for his bravery and good
conduct His commission at this time bore
ample testimony to his merits and gallant
services. Col. Riley was in Command Of the
Second Infantry, under Gen. Scott, and in
the valley of Mexico, during the Mexican
war, he commanded the Second Brigade OF
Twiggs' Division. consisting Of the Fourth
Artillery and the Second and Seventh In
fantry. For his share in the hotly contes
ted battle of Cero Gordo, on the 18th OF
April, 1847, Col. Riley was made Brevet
Brigadier General in the month of August,
l848. He received his tlrle of Brevet Major
General in the Army, in March, 1851. as
the reward Of gallant conduct during the
action at Contreras on the goth of August,
1 l347.
In the years 1849 and 1850, Gen. Riley
was in command Of the Military Depart
ment in Upper California, and also exercised
the functions of Provincial Governor. In
this position he fully sustained his charac-
ter for probity, humanity and energy. Al
the close Of his administration on the Pacif-
ic, he was ordered to take command Of a
regiment on the Rio Grande, but i'll health
compelled him to relinquish further active
service, and he returned to his residence
in Buffalo. The hardships Of campaign life
undoubtedly produced an unfavorable ef,
fest upon his constitution, and the diseasS
which finally proved fatal to him was an
aggregated cancer. lie leaves a widow

THE PROSPECT OF THE CRoPs IN ENGLAND.
The London Marx Lane Express states that
under the combined influence of heat and
moister, the various crops have improved in
appearance, and the reports from the agri-
cultural districts are already of a more
cheerful character; at the same time, the es-
inmates Qt the probable result Of the harvest
are not by any means sanguine. The ex-
treme shortness of the breadth of land un-
der wheat renders it very improbable that
the produce OF that grain can, under almost
any circumstances. prove large, and the
late period 70 which the sowing of spring
corn wiss unavoidably delayed, IS certainly
against an early or productive year. Sill
with an aHspleloqs summer, the result
Mlght be better than anticipated, and mer-
chants having proGted by past experience
gre npa likely g be tempted into speculative
investments on the chance ofa possible def
c1ency after harvest. Should the foreign
supplies Elll off, however, and the consum-
rlonof bread continue as great as it has hi
therto been, the value of wheat would pro-
badly improve, even ii no!hiEs should occur
from nos to harvest to give Use to appre-
tensions as to the crops.

DARING RoBBERY.--A most daring rob-
berry was committed, or last Friday morn

about miles south east Of town. During
the absence of Mr., Garlow a man entered
the house and demanded Mr.. G's money
presenting pistol and making threats-the
drawer containing the money was opened,
and he took about two hundred dollars, and
notes amounting to about one hundred dol,
lars.
There were two women in the house, one
of whom ran to a neighbors as speedily as
possible and gave the alarm, but the robber
fled before assistance arrived.

COPPER AND GOLD MINING IN VIRGINIA.
A new mining company, has been organized,
colled the Manassa Cooper Mine, at Fau-
quier county, Virginia. The mine is stu
ated on the Blue Ridge, and is 10 miles from
Alexandra, and extending over 5000 acres.
The Manassa Gap Railroad passes through
the property, affording direct and easy
communication with Alexandria. 1t is said
the mine has been surveyed by Professors
B. Silliman Jr., of New York, and A. l..
Piggott, of Baltimore; and the ore has been
analysed by DR. James R. Chiffon and Prof
Sillimac, Their reports speak forciby in
favor of the mine. The ore yields q, 40
per cent. of pure copper The ore can be
sent to Baltimore for So per ton, and to
New York for $3.50. A late letter from
London also has the following:
"a prospectus has made its appearance,
entitled the London and Virginia Gold and
Copper Company, with a capital of ESQ.,
900 in El shares. Tie estate selected,
which comprises about 400 acres near Mays
vile. in Virginia, is alleged to contain paral-
lei veins of copper, gold and silver, and the
terms of purchase are G10,0OO, 10000
in paid up shares, and 10000 father in
paid up shares as soon as dividend of 10
per cent. shall have been paid to the share
