Death of an Author.

Mr.. Wingrove Cooke has died in Lon
don, in his fifty-third year. He was
known in the literary world by his
memoirs of Lord Bolingbroke," which
appeared thirty years ago, and attracted
consideral le attention. His other pub
lished books are the Conquest and
Colonization of North Africa" "Inside
Sebastopol," and "China and Lower
Bengal" and number of legal works.
The London Times says of Mr. Cooke:
He wrote with facility and f1uency,
and at the same TIME with marvellous
terseness and accuracy. Like Thacke-
ray, he seldom corrected or retouched !;
like him, too, he had great readiness in
Introducing an opposite illustration of
the views he was DESTROYS of enforcing,
and these illustrations often showed a
keen appreciation of humor. His many
friends will deeply regret the loss of one
who was esteemed and loved in proper
ton as he was known, and whose useful
life, whose many accomplishments, and
whose kindly disposition, gave promise
of good service to the public, and in
creased favor to himself in the society
he adorned"

THE PEOPLES COLUMN.

To The Editor Of the Norfolk P0st'
There have been many articles In your
valuable paper on the subject of water
and whiskey. The latter seems to be
more in demand. There is one more
article wanted. I refer to proper Off
Ger who aViN attend to the cleaning OF
streets and the dredging of docks. The
slip at the foot of Roanoke Square is the
receptacle of all the filth of Little. Water
street, as well as some of the "Hucksters'
in the Immediate vicinity. Cologne Is
said to have various smells, but If that
city can excel this particular locality, l,
for one, am willing to emigrate. Please
come down to the slip at low-tide, you
will find eggs, dogs, cats, chickens, po'
tatoes, watermelons, but not an officer
who will attend to his duty, and fol

A BRIDE KILLED BY LIGHTNING
The London Times, of the 23d ultimo,
records the awfullyAudden death of Mrs
Arbuthnot, the daughter of Lord Ri
vers, while on her wedding tour. 1t
says:
"The young lady, who was only re-
Gently married, and was on her wedding
tour, was struck by lightning on Thurs
day, near Interlachen, during thunder
storm, and instantly killed. The cir
cumstances, so far as they are known,
are these Mr.. and Mrs. Arbuthnot had
arrived on their excursion at Interla-
chen. On Thursday morning they set
out on horseback, accompanied by a
guide, to ascend the Schelthorn, one of
the Bernese Alps. When they left the
village the weather was as fine as could
be desired for such trip. They had
reached about half way up the noun
tain, when they alighted and walked
some distance further. The sky then
became overloaded, but there was moth
ing in the appearance of the atmosphere
which gave any alarm to the guide, well
accustomed to such sudden changes
Mrs. Arbuthnot, feeling little tired,
sat down to rest, and Mr.. Arbuthnot and
thu guide proceeded some distance furth-
er up the ascent, but never-went out of
sight or hearing of their companion.--
In few minutes furious thunder
storm burst over them, and they return
ed as rapidly as they could to the spot
where they had left Mrs. Arbuthnot.
They found her dead. She had been
strucx by lightning and killed instan-
taneously. Mrs. Arbuthnot was the
fourth daughter of Lord Rivers and
niece of Earl Granville"

COLLISION WITH A RICHMoND
STEAMER.-We find the following tele-
gram in the Washington Star:
"PoINT LOOKOUT, July 1.-THE mail
steamer Thomas Collyer, which left
Washington yesterday afternoon for
Richmond, was run into by brig, name
unknown, and considerably damaged.
There was large number of passengers
on board, bound for Fortress Monroe.
Norfolk and Richmond, and it is feared
that several lives were LOST. The Collyer
is first-class boat, owned by the Gov
eminent, and has been plying between
Washington and Richmond for some
months past"
A paragraph in the Chronicle, which
is later than that of the Star, says:
THE Thomas Collyer, Captain Hem
ry Williams, was run into on the night
OF the 10th, near Blackstone island.
while bound to Richmond with mails
and passengers. Her starboard wheel
house was so badly injured that she was
ordered to Baltimore for repairs. The

"Why, we shall have flood Of North

swers this growl: "Well, let them

let us stand as dogs in the manager and
prohibit others who will develop them.
