She had sold her property and intended to
remove to Kentucky in a few days to spend
her declining years with her Nicce; Mrs.
Nourse. She was one of the earliest inhab-

hardships Incident to new settlements. At
an early period she became a member Of
the Presbyterian church, and died In its bo-
som, with a irmr reliance on salvation
through Christ. Her many excellencies
will long be remembered by our citizens.-

ray from the setting sun, falls softly and be-

how mournfully so when the grave has clos

appreciate his %virtuesj then can we truly re-
alize our loss. The few errors of his hui

name comes to us laden with good deeds,
manly thoughts and high-souled honor.

E~xrRAvAGANcE OF GENrLEmEN. The
newspapers have rather ungallantly refer
red to the extravaganza of the ladies ia ar
ticles Of dress and ornament, but II would
appear that gentlemen are liable to the same
censure in the prices paid fot many articles
of dress now in vogue, The most fashiona-
bic cravats are sold for So. The fall styles
of velvet vests range from $l0to $35 each,
Most Of the desirable patterns Of the best
quality have been already taken at prices
above $40. In the matter of vest buttons
there is great extravaganza. We hear OF
sales Of single setts at upwards Of Q hundred
dollars, and the jewellers have elegant styles
at prices ranging from $40 to Ssoa button,
from $50 to $l20 a set of Blk. At the latter
price a superb set, with diamond centres can
be obtained. The finest shirts on exhibit

BARGAIN DURING A BATrLE.-It is related
that during one Of the obstinate naval en-
gagements between the English and the
Dutch, in the time of Cromwell, one OF the
English ships, to the great mortiflcation,ha had
expended all their ammunition. The cap,
tain well aware of the traficking propensi
ties of the Dutch, hoisted a flag of truce, and
sent an officer on, board the enemy's ship to
purchase ammunition. The Dutch, who
would never lose an opportunity to make a
good bargain, without regard to friend or
foe, after some negotiation, consented to
supply their enemies with powder aud ball,
but taking d ,antage Of their necessity de-
manded an exhorbitant price-which Of
course was paid after some grumbling by
John Bull who nevertheless seemed dolly
sensible of the favor, and renewed the en-
gagement with more fury than ever, return
ed the balls with such force aud accuracy,
that the Dutchman was soon placed hors dl
eombdL and compelled to surrender.

The SoMERsETsKT.-The editor OF the
Petersburg, Vaa) lntelligencer, thus de-
scribes u new style of dancing which he
witnessed at Old Point:
The somersetski is the name Of the new
dance which bids fair to knock the waltz,
the ma2ourka, tho polka, the redowa and
The Schottish into u cooked hat. This last
named dance is by far the most ridiculous
affair that was ever participated in by sane
people. We never sec it without thinking
Of a gander balancing himself on one leg,
and nodding affectionately and amorously at
his favorite goose. But from all accounts
the somerset4ki is the dance of the age
II is danced by four persons-two ladies' and
two gentlemen. The ladies are dressed in
a frock reaching to the knee, and the con-
linuanccs are of stocking, fitting as close as
possible to the skin. One lady wears n
white stocking and a black stocking, and
| the other wear one green and one red
stocking The gentlemen are dressed in
shorts, und their stockings are of pink and
purple colors. The dance begins by the
gentlemen turning somersets over the ladies',
after which the ladies turn over the gentle
men, and the whole party turn s0mersets
over each other rapidly, promiscuously
md miscellaneously. Daring this las,
movement the performers with their varie-
gated costumes present all the changes of
the Kaleidoscope. Thuse who have seen
this dance greatly admire It.,
