daylight the surgeon was awakened

DEATH ROBBED or HIS PREY.
There are queer, people in the
world; people with the most absurd,
unreasonable. and int|rt"usihlc pre-
iuiiceS. For example, We have met
with individuals who had morbid
untipathy 10 anything that WAS rN-
tensively advertised, no matter what
might be its actual claims to the con-
fdence Of the public These ecccn-
tries looked with especial dls'aror on
advertised medicines. They could
not see, for example, in DR.. EloL-
LowAYS magnificent system OF at-
vertising, covering, as 1t does, all
the mediums OF publicity which the
world affords, anything but glgan-
tic scheme Of mere specnIatlon.-
True, they could not gaIuaay the
testimony pouring in spontaneously
from the highest sources, IN tavor OF
his iucomparable Pills and Ointment,
but still they shook their heads and
muttered humoug.' - OF course,
there is no possibility Of arguing with
men who won't reason. Inc best
wav is to let them alone. Fortu-
nately, such specimens of stupidity
are 4" few and far between IN thus
enlightened era. The general feel
ing is, that if a thing is in itself eS-
cellent, its virtues should be pro-
claimed to the four winds Of heaven,
for the general benefit of mankind.
Hence, the proclamations made by
DR.. HOLLOWAY, through the entire
newspaper press of the world, OF the
properties and operation OF his rene
dies, meets with the cordial approval
of thinking men. The value Of the
preparations as specifics tor the varl-
Gus internal and external complaints
peculiar to different climates, or COM
mon to the world at large, is conce-
ded, not only by the masses, but by
governments, men of science, aud
candid observers in every walk Of

ARRIVAL OF LIEUT.. GEN. JACKSON S RE-
Ss-MANIFEsTATIoNs OF RESPECT.
Yesterday was sad day in Rich
mond. Sunday afternoon the report
of Gen. Jackson death was current,
but though preceded by the announce
ment from several pulpits that the
condition of the illustrious chieftain
was deemed critical, no one was will
ing to credit the tidings Of his death
without full assurance Of the correct
ness Of the unwelcome news.
In accordance with the recommen-
dation Of the Mayor, all business was
suspended after 10 o'clock, A. M
Between II and -, large concourse
of ladies and gentlemen assembled
on Broad street to witness the arrl-
val of the special train, expected,
with the remains Of the departed
hero. A telegraph despatch from
Milford, however, was received, con-
veying the information that the train
having been delayed at that point,
would not arrive until near 4 o'clock
P. NJ.
This Information was communicat-
ed to the crowd, who soon dispersed
to their homes. About 8 o'clock
Broad street and the Capitol Square
were again thronged by ladies and
gentlemen. At 20 minutes to four
o'clock the train turned the curve,
and the depot and other bells were
tolled. In few minutes the train
arrived at the corner Of Fourth street,
where it was hailed.
The coffin was covered with
wreathes, placed upon it by the Ia
dies of Ashland. With as little de-
lay as possible, the body was remov-
ed under military escort to the Co.
vernor's Mansion, followed by the
largest assemb|age of persons that
ever collected, perhaps, within the
Capitol square.

mentioned that he had met Boyd at

crowd became satisfied and accepted
the explanation, with the additional
pledge from the aforesaid citizen,

THE FUNERAL OF JACKSON.

lh6 OE oaNnSSA''
The city was again, on yesterday,
the scene Of another tumultuous out
burst of mourning, and the last Of
flee of honor to the departed hero
was performed with fitting magnlfi-
cence. In no public ceremony, not
even the grand display which attend
ed the Inauguration Of the monu-
ment Of Washington, some year ago,
has Richmond been rendered more
mem orable than upon this occasion,
when every branch of the Confeder-
ate and State Governments, with an
army of bronzed and hardy heroes,
and the whole city pouring forth its
living tribute. aged and young OF
both sexes, joined in the pageant and
gave it all the imposing grandeur
which sympathy, sorrow, love and
admiration united, could bestow.
In accordance with arrangements
made upon Monday, the procession
was formed upon Capltol square at
10 o'clock, stretching along Monu'
uent avenue from the Governor q
