Sadden Death.

This whole community was greatly shocked on
Saturday morning last, to learn that John b
Breckenridge, Esq. had died very suddenly about
9 o'clock the previous night. Several weeks age
Mr. B. had eight attack of paralysis, from
which he partially recovered, and it is presumed
that a second attack terminated his life at the
time mentioned. He was sitting in his room, and
fell over and instantly expired. Mr. b. had long
been engaged in business in this place, and fol
many years filled the important Office of Treasu-
rer of the Western Lunatic Asylum. He was q
man of many generous and kindly feelings, o.
eminently social qualities and unsupported nteg
rity. On Sunday last his remains were followed
to Thornrose Cemetery by large number o.
mourning relatives and friends, funeral service;
having been previously hold at the Episcopal
Church.

Hunt up your Broomstlcls. I,


Gov. johnson in his late message recommends
the restoration of the old Militia system of Vir-
ginia, and the Richmond Examiner learns that a
proposition TO that effect W i'll soon be brought be-
fore the Legislature. 1t is not necessary for the
Examiner or ourselves to suggest plans OF
military organization, as Governor Wise will in
all probability send in a special message on the
subject and make suggestions that will lead to the
establishment of some very efficient system
'Militia" he is determined to "call out' upon
occasion, aud Militia organization he must have
before he can hope to maintain discipline and
fight effectively. The 'huge sword Of Virgins"
which he proposes 10 draw, will be of no avail
unless backed by ''arms and accoutrements" Of a
different description from those used by the
"high privates" when we carried commission
in our pocket. We take it for granted then, that
Mr. Wise will second the motion of Gov. j. and
the Examiner and recommend some system OF
military organization, which we trust will meet
with the favorable consideration of the Legs
lature.
L; will be grand day-a notable day in the
history of the Old Dominion when the rafting
drum again calls together the scattered fragments
of the glorious old Militia. Many sword that
has been sleeping peacefully for years, will then
"leap nobly from lis sheath :" tatereG regimen
tails will be ''raised from the gathered dust OF
years." and donned with unspeakable pride by
Colonies, Captains and Lienenants who had long
since ceased to dream of military reaown. Again
will our streets resound with the martial strains
of "Smokey Row" and "Yankee DOODLE" and
witness those unrivaled gyrations and eyolutions
not found in any published work on military tao
tics, but vulgary known as the "grape vine twist''
and "boa constructor bend" In Imagination we
already see the majestic forms of the command
inc officers, adorned with waving plumes and
golden epaulettes, as they survey with mingled
pride and emotion the gallant sodiery, and an
nounce in authoritative tone, the scientific COM
mand: "Fall in according to your highnesses and
dress according to the curb-stone." And when
MIR. Wise calls the whole host out for general re-
view, and in their presence draws from its nam
moth scabbard "the huge sword of Virgna"-
what scene will be presented. Who does moi
want to be there? Verify it will be sufficient tc
draw tears from the bronzed statues of Thomas
jefferson and Patrick Henry.
BY all means, then let US revive the Militia
If nothing better is effected, it will raise the price
of ginger-cakes and molasses beer, and indirectly
encourage every other imaginable branch Of bust,
ness.

Flour FOR THE CRMEA.-There has been a
steady aud active demand for flour during the
week, and sales have been made, reaching near
5000 barrels, mostly to one firm. This flour is
bought on foreign order and without doubt
will find ITS way to the Crimea This firm have
within the past few weeks purchased in this mar
ket about $4,000 bbls. of flour, at an average of
say s7.75 per bbl., thus throwing some tlcO hun
drsd and thmty-t,co thousand tive Hundred dollars
into the hands of our farmers, millers and produce
dealers. Were it not for these foreign orders,
probably not more than one half of this amount
Of flour would have been sold during this time.
and much oft would have dragged heavily upon
the market for long time to come. There has
been decline in price since Saturday week OF
about 81 DC. per Dbl. This decline isowing partially
TO declines in the New York market, and partially
10 the fact that freights have advanced zoe. per
hbl on the New York Railroads. from lake ports
Ia New York city. 1t will readily be seen that
whatever the advances in freight may be, flour
must decline here accordingly Detroit .4dv,,
