FINE MILLINERY. On yesterday we casually
stepped into Mrs. A. Crookers' Millinery Es-
Establishment on Union street, where we noticed
the most tasty assortment of Head and Neck
ornaments, and Dressing, we have ever seen in
the city. We understood that Mrs. @. had just
returned from the Eastern cities, where she had
procured all the latest styles of fashionable
head gear. Her establishment appeared to US
really neat, beautiful and elegant. Ladies who
are in need of trimming in that particular line,
would do well TO call at Mrs. C's. aud get their
outward beauty more elegantly embellished.

Union Republican.

Our neiGhbor is mistaken in sup2osine
that we have changed our position in rea.
ton to the New York Hards and Softs.-
We never denounced the iiaIds on account
of their political principles, but we aid,
and still think, that they raised a factiou
opposition to the Administration with TT
gard 10 the distribution of Offices, which
was carried too far. The Softs by sus-
tainirg the Democratic platform of 1852,
Indicated returning sense of Justice,
which justified the hope that they would
prove themselves true to the great prlnci-
pies OF the parry and country. They had
endorsed our platform and sustained our
candidates, and the Administration trusted
them with cail.denee, in the hope that
they would hot again foIsake their frs,
love, But we always believed that time
alone would prove their sincerity.
While we do not pretend to endorse the
resolutions Of the Soft Convention, and
bad as the Union Republican may esteem
them. we defy it to produce nything bet.

Dr.. p. Claiborne Csooci.

1t is with regret that we announce the
death OF this young Physician. DR.. G..
was a resident Of RicAaond and on hear
ng of the ai1iicti9n and suffering OF the
citizens of Norfolk and Portsmouth, he
repaired TO the former place 10 devote his
professional services 10 the interests of tina
people. After o few days OF arduous la
Dor. he was stricken down with the yellow
fever, which resulted in his death in a
few days. We knew DR.. Goocll. As a
man, he was the soul Of chyalric honor.
As an associete courteous, kind and gene
roUs. Il. his profession. although a young
man, he had acquired an enviable reputa-.
zion, and promised far to stand in the
front with its favored students. He died
heroically-a noble sacrifice in the cause
of suffering humanity. Never did truer
heart cease to throb in human breast. than
when the noble spirit Of DR.. p. G. Gooch
was summoned from its clay tenement.-
He was perfectly calm and collected at the
time Of his death. A few moments pre-
vious to his demise, he felt his own pulse,
and then ask for stimulants-he being suf-
flciently rational TO understand precisely
his own condition.
Peace be to his ashes. Lightly NAV the
sclods of the valley" rest upon his remains,
and long may the noble tiaits Of his char
ac'er be remembered and cherished by his
friends and fellows.

Central and Orange Railroads.

During a recent trip, on these roads,
(says the Richmond Dispatch.) we were
greatly struck with the vast advance which
Virginia has made Of late years in rail-
roads-an advance which fully confirms
the remark of an intelligent Northern
traveller that, as far as she has gone with
her railroads, Virginia surpasses the North
in the speed and comfort of this mode Of
travelling. The Central Railroad, in the
solid.ty and elegance of its work, its spaei-
Gus, handsome and comfortable cars, its
great speed and the ease with which its
cars glide over the heavy rail, and the
care and prudence exercised by its officers,
is model railroad, ard an honor to all
connected with it. Especial mention de-
serves to be made OF its most efficient and
gen,lemanly conductors. There is no road
in the United States whose officers are
more polite and obliging. All who have
travelled on Northern and Western Rail-
roads, where the conductors and other
agents seem to look upon their passengers
as SO many prisoners Of war who may be
safely treated with any amount Of discour-
tesy, will know how TO appreciate the at
teniions of the kind and whole-souled gen.
tlem.n who have charge CT the Central

Hon. JAMES BucHANAN.-The pubic
has already been Apprized Of The fact that
Mr.. Buchanan is to continue in discharge
OF his important duties as American minis
ter at the court of St. james for time ex-
tending beyond the period wher Eis re-
turn TO the United States has been antici-
pated both 10y i friends and himself. Mr.
Buchanan can never return to the people
for whom he has rendered such signal SER
vices, and to whose interests has devoted
SO large a portion OF his valuable life. with
out greeting warm and generous. Still,
all will be graliied to know that IN view
of important public interests, his large ex-

tinue TO be devoted to the country in po-
