DEATH OF GENERAL WILLIAM HICKEY,
SKNATE.-At four o'clock yesterday morning
Senate, died AZ his residence at Rasevale, near
this city. During the last twelve months he
complained of indisposition and weakness, and
spent some weeks at his fayorite summer re-
sort, Bedford Springs, Pennsylvania in July
and August, for the benefit OF his health, but
he could not recover his strength. On his re-
turn TO his post he exhibited characteristic
punctuality and interest in the concerns of
his department.; but il was evident that he
strnggled against fate. When Congress met
on the 4th Of December last, he sent word that
he-tould not be at his post, but hoped few
days would enable him to resume IL, but his
hour had come, and we are now called to re-
cord his decease. William Hickey was one of
thssoldest as he had been one of the most con-
scienuOus of National officials. He had oc-
Cupied other stations, but the best part of his
life was spent in the Senate of the Republic,
having been forty-two years in its service. His
work, 1.-The Constitution" is a standard au-
thorIty, and is a monument of his patience,
skill, and conscientious iDpaTtiaIity.
At two O'Clock yesterday afternoon the
clerks of the office Of the Secretary of the
Senate assembled, and addresses were made
upon the subject of Gen. Hickey's death by
John W FOrney and Major VIM. Mcdonald.
The usual resolutions of respect were then
adopted, and a committee of two appointed to
visit the relatives of the deceased, to express
the sense Of the meeting, and TO offer their ser
vice and coincidence. after which the meeting
adjourned. The funeral services will take
place at St AlOysius Church, al ten o'clock on
Monday morning.
