SUDDEN DEATH The Wilmington Sta,
of the 2nd instant says: "a shade of sad
ness was cast upon our community yesterday
by the intelligence Of the sudden death, at
the Purcell House, of DR.. T. W. Battey, Of
Augusta, Ga, who came to our city on Fri
day last on business connected with the sale
of the work recently published by Hon. A.
Fl. Stephens. He was sitting at the dinner
table when the; dread visitant came, appa-
rently no worse in health than he had been
since his arrival among US, when he was sud-
denly seized with spasm of the heart, to
which he was subject, and died almost i'm
mediately. Medical attendance was in
stantly procured, but without avail. De-
ceased, we learn, went to one of our churches
on Sunday night, in company with gen.
tleman connected with the Hotel, and re-
marked that he could not walk fast, as be
he was troubled with the heart disease.
Though stranger in our midst, DR.. But
tey had already made many friends. We
learn that he bore letters of recommenda-
tion from Mr.. Stephens to several of our
most prominent citizens, and they spoke in
the highest terms of the character sustained
by the unfortunate gentleman where be was
best known.
He was about fifty years of age, and leaves
a family and large circle of friends in
Augusta to mourn his death. Col. Davis,
Proprietor Of the Purcell House, telegraphed
to his family the sad intelligence, and also
the fact that the body would be forwared
this morning by Express to Augusta.

LITERARY GossIP.-Harper Brothers send
us this week "The Rob Roy on the Jordan"
by ]. Macreggor, which is one of those ac-
counts of adventures by flood and field,
which, before and since the time that Othe!-
10 beguiled the fair Desdemona, have always
commanded the interest of both hearers and
rnaders. The book is bulky 10 mo-, pro-
fusely and well illustrated with maps and
wood cuts.
The author, j. Macgreggor, is one of two
hundred subjects of Queen Victoria, who,
with plenty of money and nothing to do,"
have, to supply the deficiency, formed a
canoe club with Royal Highness for a
Commodore, and the usual list of subordi
mates down to Captains, in which title he
himself rejoices
A canoe is not exactly the conveyance in
which one would wish to visit foreign parts,
but these gentlemen of the canoe club are
adventurous spent up" pond or smooth
lake bounds and limits their voyages; with
half inch keel they plough wild distant
rivers, and remote unknown lakes, the Red
Sea and the White, the Jordan and the
lakes of the Holy Lana. Arabs, friendly
and inimical, in the so-called state of Ma
ture, undress and full dress, figure exten-
sively in the narrative and in the cuts. We
have the distance from Dan to Bersheeba,
and much to confirm the historical facts of
the New Testament. The book is worth
reading if only to show how useful idle men
are, and what men do who have nothing to
do.
"Kilmeny," by William Black, is most ap-
propriately named, if one can be bored to
death by stupid novel, for it would
certainly kill good many were all readers
like ourselves. When half through it we
discovered Kilmeny TO be picture. There
are bat two good characters in the book.
Heatherleigh and Polly, and We see but lit
tie Of them,
"Stern Necessity" is also published by
this house, but, unlike the preceding novel,
we cannot see the appropriateness of the Ii
tie which the author has given it. There
is nothing in it either of the "stern PARENT
or, that we can discover" of stern necessity.
1t opens well and promises fair, but does
not sustain itself, and we are under the
stern necessity of pronouncing it poor
novel.
"The Vicar nf Bullhampton," Trollope's
last, is another one of his church novels,
but not equal to those in which Mrs.
Prudie figures. The Vicar himself, VIC -lry
told, is not the hero, but he is decidedly
the best character in the book. It is hand
somely printed and well illustrated. Price
$1.25 in paper, and well worth reading.

lust to tire great body OF the Amcri-

"just to tire great body OF the Amcri.
"can people, and; in its results, in
curious, eventually, to NEARLY every
individual interest OF the country"
Now, there lis no dispute as to the
matter of that fact. Everybody
knows that sentiment to be eminent
ly true, and 1t has been rs frequently
stated, and is as profoundly believed
and consistently acted upon by Pro.
tectionists as by Free Traders, or
Revenue Reformcrs."
These anathemas. which these "lse-
formers inject into their resolutions,
against enricliihg one class OF citizens
at the expense Of others, by q tariff,
is injected for bumcombc. It is a
strained attempt TO keep together,
and IN harmonious relation, two ideas
that are antagonist, and that give
the lie TO each other.
AS the double stars can only be
resolved by the aid of instruments,
SO these "Reformcrs" hope. that the
common people have no means of
proving the duality, and. especially,
the antagonism Of the two parts OF
these ideas, thus so closely connected
in grammatical relation.
