Death of Hall 7. Little

Most Of our readers will be surprised at the
announcement of the death of Hall j. Little,
Esq, which took place about l o'clock yester-
day. He had been confined to his residence
for some weeks with an attack of dysentery,
but his disorder was not considered danger
Gus until the day of his decease.
Mr. Little was bookbinder and bookseller
by profession. He established in 1924 the
house now carried on by his nephew, Mr.. Hall
l.. Davis, and for long series of years con-
Quoted the book binding and book selling bust
ness in that establishment with honor and
profit to himself, with satisfaction to his pa
irons and with credit to our city. Some years
since he retired from that business, and en-
gagged in commercial and manufacturing pur-
suits, and has been President of the Portland
Company for several years. In all his business
relations he sustained the highest character
for integrity and uprightness. His death will
be deplored not only by the relations but also
by the large circle of friends to whom he had
endeared himself
Mr.. Little was 81 years and three months
old. He leaves wife and one child to mourn
the decease Of kind husband and father.
The funeral will take place next Monday af-
ternoon from his late residence on High street.

emen, yours truly,
JAS. W. HUNNICUTT.

Mr.. HUNNIcUTT is a native of South Caro-
lima, was born in the Congressional district of
the late j. c. Calhoun, but good many years
since removed to Virginia, and settled in Fred
ericksburg. In that city he accumulated
property, and for many years owned and edited
religious newspaper, which. when the rebel
lion was inaugurated, gave its whole influence
in favor of the Union.
MIR. Il. was compelled to become refugee
from the State of his adoption, or to become
traitor to the flag Of bis country. He pre-
ferred the former alternative, although in do
ing so he was obliged to separate himself from
those dearer to him than life ITSELF He left
Fredericksburg at the time Gen. Burnside's
army evacuated that city, since which time he
has been in the North, waiting the time when
he can safely go and rejoin his family.
Mr.. Hunnicutt is vigorous, earnest speak
er, whose whole soul is in the Union cause,
though he discusses the subject mainly in its
religious bearings. That the City Hall will
be crowded tomorrow evening there can be
no doubt, and as Mr.. FL. is a stranger, forced
upon the attention of strangers by circum-
stances beyond his control, we trust that his
heart may be made to rejoice by the satbstan-
tiaL testimonial which shall be made at the
meeting. We presume the arrangement will
be to take up subscription for the speaker

Rev. James ". Hunnicutt.

In the Virginia State Journal of Sept. u,
published at Alexandra, we find an article
relating to Rev. Mr.. Hunnicutt, the gentle
man who is to address our citizens at the City
Hall tomorrow evening, from which we make
the following extract
We would not want more conclusive evil
dence of his great influence among the peo-
pie, than that furnished by Gould, of Thorn
aston, the Copperhead candidate for Congress
in that District, in speech made at jefferson,
Maine, a few days before the election. He
charged Mr.. Hunncutt with being rebel spy.
and said that, as soon as he got all the infor-
nation he wanted, he would slip through our
lines and carry it to JEFF. Davis Ii Mr..
Gould should make such charge down here
where Mr.. Hqnnicutt is well known-where
he has labored in season and out OF season for
the Union cause long before and ever since
the war broke out-an incensed people might
cause him to carry away with him marks
which would last him whole lifetime. Mr..
Hunnicutt rebel spy! Why the man who
would make such charge is certainly fit
subject Tor the lunatic asylum, and deserves
our pity rather than our contempt! For
twelve long years he published and edited the
Fredericksburg Christian Banner, and for
eighteen monlns before the opening of HOSTILE
warned bp
people of the dangerous and damning heresv
of secession, and pointed out to then, I,
words which now seem prophetic the misery
they would entail upon themselves and their
children by effecting dissolution of the
Unior. All the offers CT power and place
were not sufficient to lure him from the no.
BILE cause which be espoused. Nor could
threats intimidate him. Through all the
dark days of 60-6l, he sto ID almost solitary
and alone, and hattled as fearlessly for his
country as though he had thousands OF
friends at his back to shield and protect him
from harm. So incensed did the leaders OF
tue secession party become towards him that
he finally had to suspend the publication OF
his paper. Then he had to leave the home oil
his adoption-his family everything, indeed
which man holds dear in this world, and
become wanderer among strangers. He
was Wiling to do all this rather than espouse
so SaIse at which every feeling OF his heart
tesulteu. SO intensely is he hated and feared
oy me reoels that price is set upon his head
anu anu Je9i Davis would to-day rather have
MN IN MS clutches than any other Virpinian

SUsrIcIoUs.-A recruit was passed yester-
day at the Provost Marshal's office, and the
substitute broker claimed S475 of the bounty,
which was allowed by the recruit. Capt.
Doughty, thinking matters looked little sus-
picious, refused to pay the broker the sum he
claimed, and paid the whole amount to the re-
cruit, who, after entering the carriage to be
conveyed to Camp Berry, handed over the
whole amount of the bounty to the broker
The man is probably bounty jumper, and
