4 young lady of New York, very dimly
designated as the daughter Of professional
gentleman well known for his extensive ad-
vertisements, lately lost the principal part
of her wardrobe by fire. The property was
insured, and claim was made for damages
to the amount of S21 600. The insurance
company resisted the demand as enormous,
and the case being carried into court a list
was made out, under the directions of the
young lady herself, of the various items.
This schedule is published in full in the
New York Herald and is curiosity of legal
literature indeed. The schedule would fill
more than a column of our paper. The es-
timatcd values are of course only those of
the articles when burned, after some wear,
and the original cost Of the wardrobe is stated
at $50 600. The largest single enTry is for
white satin dress with founces of deep
pointed Alencon, wofch $500 and there is
also blue satin dress trimmed with Brussels
lace, valued at $500. There are in the
catalogue thirty-six silk and satin gowns,
two Of velvet, and twenty-four Of poplin,
cashmere and muslin, besides extra skirts,
bodices and jackets. No Jewelry ap ears in
the list; but there are bewildering variety
of fans, parasols. workboxes, card cases, and
similar costly triAes. 1t appears by the
marks on some Of she articles that the young
ladys name was Fanny, and not Flora but
she must be at least arelative of the McFlim-
sey family. aaae s.# @

Referring 20 Stonewall Jackson, Governor

tary institute, pays the following feeling and
handsome tribute to his memory:
One name is now missing from the Pro
fessional roll Of this institution. The day
when Stonewall Jacksous native State most
needed his services when all her people
were looking to him for deliverance, from
the troubles in which they were then involv-
ed--when the hopes of the Confederacy were
conferred in him-wlen the prayers OF peo-
pie, morning and evening, assembled to Heav-
en-, imploring Gods blessing, protection and
preservation of hinl-when the love and af-
lection of a whole people were entwined about
him, at that moment he was removed from
among us. He sleeps in yonder Cemetery
His resting place is hallo~cd croull, and
will be visited by countless thousands, who
have been impressed with the genius of the
man as exhibited in the recent civil war
with his dauntlcss courage-his pure and
spotless character, his christian virtues-his
rigid simplicity disinterestedness and his
self-sacrifcing spirit and disposition: The
dauntless heart was stricken down lii the hour
Of victory, at. Charlottesville
In pride, in all the prid4 of VICE.
We tell of him the brave laid low,
Who for his birth place bled." .a
He is gone. This institution shall know
him no more, as one of its honorcd Profos-
sors. His voice shall not be heard again, in
the way of admonition, and in imparting in
struction. It is stilled, and stilled forever
in death. -.a @'Iar '''"
| He has filed the measure Of greatness
he has won inperishable renown, and his
name and fame will live forever. He loved
! Virginia ssith his whole heart, and died for
her, in what he believed to be the cause OF
truth and right His example is left to us,
for imitation-and no brighter or better ex-
ample can be held up before the young and
rising generation. He was man Of labor,
and in She changed condition of affairs, ali

tive-essential elements of success. He was
patient, siintirirs, energetic, never postponed
the work Of to-day, for~ q more convenient
season. He was gentle, kind, charitable,
and studiously polite always performed his
duty faithfully, and eourteously. In all thesr
respects, he had no superior, and his charac-
ter and life, therefore is worthy Of emulation
