Mrs. D. JONES of this City, formerly of Lynchburg,

of her physician and the solicitation of her family
but had herself bat little hope of improved health
she felt her earthly tabernacle was yielding rap dy
to disease Mrs Jones was in all the relation: Of life
an example of goodness: she was most devoted and
friends and lady af the kindest feelings. The poor
never made an application to her in vain She did all
her good deeds silently, and without ostentstion
saying ~ do not wish to hear of it AGAR" In all
her acts kindness and benevolence was marked She
has left void in the hearts of her three that
cannot be filled-her friends mourn her loss and feel
she has left few such behind; che suffered greatly
for some weeks previous to her death, and we have
to believe that the loss of children and friends
have been gain to her-may the Lord in infinite wis
dom sanctify this bereavement to all who have been
afflicted by 1t.

DANVILLE RAILROAD.

We have already announced that cargo
of Railroad iron had arrived from England
for the Danville Railroad. There are sever
al other cargoes afoat and to be shipped, ma
king in all 1000 tons of iron-enough to lay
about a5 miles. The cargo now here will lay
about miles. Some twenty miles of the
road is ready to receive the iron.
The Company have determined to borrow
Sa5o,OOO, as we have before stated and efforts
are making to obtain it. An offer has been
made for the whole; but at figure much too
low. Avery little has been taken as yet; but
the prospects, encouraging. When that loan
is effected, the road will soon be finished.

THE CENTRAL AMERICAN AND GU
BA QUESTIONS.

The Washington correspondent OF the Pnii-
adelphia Ledger says that Mr.. buchanan is
probably charged with the Central American
question. The Spanish question, in the opin-
ion ofthe same writer, will be solved in Wash
ington if any where. Mr. Cueto, the new Span
ish Minister, has however declared very posi-
lively to some Senators, that he had no IN
structions to treat for Cuba, and that SPAN
would never consent to such an arrangement
The correspondent seems to apprehend that
if Spain should be-republicanized as france
was in ls4s, she may emancipate the negroes
as the French have done. There seems, how
ever, but little chance of republicanizing
Spain, according to a London letter OF July
2sth in the New York Herald. This wrl-
ter says, that amidst the present confu-
sion in Spain, all accounts from private
travellers seem to agree in this, that the
monarchical sentiment is predominating
"The instruction" says he, 'has broken out
on all sides, at the east and the west, the north
and the south at St. Sebastian, Pampeluna,
Burgess, Vittoria, Valladolid, Saragossa, Bar
celona and Valencia. Every where the re-
publican parties have attempted to give their
color to the movement, and every where they
have been repulsed. At Barcelona the peo-
pie took arms against them, and in several
towns in which they succeeded in possessing
themselves of power, they were Immediately
overthrow. Some attempted to resist, and
were taken to prison. At Barcelona, where
the spirit of opposition has been so often re-
marked-opposition almost representation.
Ramon de la Roche, Captain General, decla-
red at the very moment at which the insur-
rection triumphed, that "the movement re-
posed on law and conscience-that its motive
and object were the constitution, the Queen
and liberty -
1t is not probable, however, that any gov
eminent of Spain, monarchical or republican,
can be easily prevailed upon to part with the
chief fountain of revenue to the government.
