1t is with sincere regret that we announce the
death Of Henry +. Rodney, Of Lewcs, Sussex Co.
lie died somewhat suddenly, at his home on Tues
day of last week, aged 60 years.
Mr.. Rodney was n descendant from tho same
stock US the signer OF the Declaration Of Indepen-
dence Cesar Rodney. lie has been an active
inan III every department of life and has filled
many public stations. He was member OF the
State Convention Of 1882, which framed our pres
cnt Constitution. and even in that early day, his
sense of justice was so strong, his principles so
liberal, that when the suffrage clause was under
consideration, he voted against the insertion Of
the word white, III reference to voting.
He served in the State Legislature, and was re-
l.rttetily delegate to the diocesan and general
conventions Of The Protestant Episcopal Church,
IN the membership of which he was faithful aud
consistent. At one period Of lite he resided in
Philadelphia, engaged In business, and was elected
10 the Councils of that city. During the admin
istration Of Mr.. Lincoln be was Assistant U. 8.
Assessor of Internal Revenue, for the division in
which he resided.
Mr.. Rodney was In every sense,a good citizen,
whose loss the State can III afford.

THE CIRCUIT AND CHANCERY
COURT.

Judge Trimble opened this Court,
yesterday, and adjourned until
10 o'clock this morning, at which
time, it is proposed to charge the
Grand Jury. We hear there are
some of the attorneys, at this bar,
who wish the Conrt adjourned un-
til the lst Of March, on the ground,
that by that time, the Court will be
regularly organized, under the new
Constitution. Others suggest q
special term about 1st February.
The fact is, that all offices In this
State will, in all probability, be de-
clared vacant before that time. We
learn that some action will be taken
in this matter, at the Court House
this morning, and that a full attend
ance of the bar is desirable.
There is q great deal of business
on the Circuit ,and Chancery
dockets: There being $40 cases OIL
the issue docket, and nearly 100 on
the appearance docket. The business
would probably occupy the atten.
tion Of the Court, Jury and Bar
for the full term Of ten weeks.

IT is astonishing how easily one
can save enough to pay for policy
in a good insurance company If he
will deny himself e few luxuries In
the way of cigars and liquors, or In
other superfluities. By this saving
he con ensure the future comfort Of
his wife aud children, or others
who are dependant upon him for
support. To neglect this is almost
criminal. The North America
Company offer unusual induce
ments to insure, as their advertise
ment we'll shows.
The general agent for this State,
Major G. P. TheObald, is we'll
and favOrAbly known here and all
over our State. His upright aud
manly character, wonderful energy
and business enterprise, e,exactness In
business matters and perfect relia-
bility, have made him very success
full, and won to him hosts Of
friends.
The local agents, at Vicksburg
are Messrs. Page and Theobald and
both these gentlemen have thor
ough experience in insurance mat
ters and enjoy the confidence o.
community.
Mr.. H. Dsnio, the special agenI
for the State; by virtue Of his long
residence here aud his correct anC
systematic business habits -is-t
strong and useful auxiliary Sin eS
tablishing the company named, ant
the others for which Page & Theo
bald are agents, firm in popular ia
vor. The utility and desirabilit!
of life insurance is beyond ques
ton and a company like the NOrtl
America with assets Of over fivI
million dollars commands the con
fidence of every body. Read thei

QUITE q large number Of immi-

few days, most of them to engage
in labor about here on farms and
levees. A large number Of famir
lies from Illinois have arrived and
gone up the YazoO by boat, intend
ing to settle In that neighbOrhoOd,
sending their wagons, &C., around

with q cordial welcome and every
necessary assistance extended to
them. We must let them feel we
desire them here and others will
soon follow them. This is on i'm.
