The DEATH OF GENERAL RusK.-The extra

We can only give the facts, and mourn the
sad stroke which has thus deprived Texas
and the South Of a valuable and useful

General Rusk has, ever since the death Of
his lady, suffered under mental depres-
sion which at times bore him down beneath
its weight He has, to great extent, Sc
cluded himself from society; and lately that
dependency has been more marked and APP
parent to those familiar with him. A Sc.

was suffering greatly from q rising on the
back Of the neck.
On yesterday evening, about 2 o'clock.
his family, hearing the report ofa gun and
the fall ola body, ran to the spot, and found
him lying dead upon the ground, behind the
gallery at the back Of the house, with ri
fie under him.
A coroners jury was summoned, from
| whose verdict we extract the following:
:. The cause Of his death was u gun shot

We cordially endorse the foregoing
remarks Of our Dubuque contemporary.
While Republican journals were urging
all the rank and file Of their party, to
support the New Constitution, because
it was Republican instrument, and its
adoption would tend to injure the DE.

as J. C. Hall, WE. Coolbaugh and
Edward johnston, cooperating WIFI
the enemies ofthe Democratic Party,
and throwing the weight Of their in

This Jndasl-ike conduct has placed
those men beyond the pale Of the De

political doom. We should not be al
