OBITUARY.

Your paper has announced the death of
MIS-. NJ. o. MOGEHEE. Eife Of Colonel E. F..
McGehee, and daughter of General B. W.
Williamson, permit an old friend OF hers to
publish q tribute to her memory.
Whatever is lovely and worthy OF high es-
TEEN, and ali that the true spirit OF ChriAti-
anity gives to humanity, were so exsmpn-
ied in the life of Mrs. MoGEHEE, that some
thing more than a mere announcement of
her death should be written of her. twenty
years sgO or more, when the writer of this
tribute to her virtues nrst saw her, she was q
marvel of beauty. in person and character;
and so she was always. From girlhood, and
through life and In death, she was fervent
in Christian pioty-alwsys endeavoring TO
do coed and to render others good and happy.
For many years, passing through all of the
yicissitudes of life, In bright happiness and
In dark grief, she gave noble example of
true, brave, cheerful piety, OF perfect smis-
bility and charity, and a charming Uniform
ity OF temper and graoefulness Of manners.
Beautiful, wealthy, witty, vivacious, and
during the most OF her life happy, and caus-
ing all around her to have her genial mirth
and sprightlIneEs. believe she never spoke
q harsh word, nor was guilty Of rude ac~
tion, and rarely, II ever, by word or deed,
wounded the feelings of even the meanest of
those around her. No slander nor mean tat
Ting was ever uttered by her. Her mother,
her sister and her brothers, have all gone be-
fore her into tie glorious life eternsli and
she, who was q few days since, radient in
earthly beauty and happiness, has Joined
them, where all is eternal beauty and hap
piness
Mrs. MCGsHEE died as she had nved-a
brave, true, cheerful Ghristlan-perfsctly re-
signed, and with confident hope. Without
fear or repintng. she heard the voice OF our
Heavenly Father, and went from mortal to

COTTON.
How New York COntempIates the COttOH
Fields.

New YORK, September 15.-The
cotton reports purpOrting to have
come from the Department of Agri-
culture during the past month have
not been genuine.
There are reports of injuries by the
boll-wor and caterpillar, mainly in
Mississippi and Louisiana, but no evil
dence that a general or serious loss by
these insects is probable. Drawbacks,
though greater than those reported in
September of last year, are not suffi-
tiently serious to excite apprehension
of greatly deprecated yield. They
are reported each year in such pOr-
tions of cotton area. In the re-
cords of last year there was considera-
BILE complaint of the damages to the
cotton crop from rust worms and un-
favorable weather.
These facts do not point to an en-
Iargement of the expectation hitherto
INDUCED in, if they are reliable, that
more favorable season could scarcely
bring a crop exceeding three and q
third million bales. II the growing
season should be short or unfavOrable,
three million bales will be a good re-
suit, and with combination of unfa-
vOrable circumstances, the product
might be still further reduced.

CHICAGO, September 16.-The Epis-
copal Convention of Illinois closed its
session last evening, previous to which
a resolution, prefaced by a number OF
whereases, was passed, that legal
proceedings be taken to prevent the
further diversion and mal-adminis-
tratiOn Of the property and revenues
of Christ Church, Rev. DR.. Cheney's,
and to effect the rescue of the same for
their legitimate and goodly use; and
that the chancellor of the dioceses,
by request, institute such proceedings
as may be deemed necessary to this
end. A resolution was also passed

within the State Of Illinois, one to
consist of the forty-seven counties
south of Iroquois, Ford, Mclean,
Tazwell and Mason, and east Of the
counties of Schuyler, Brown, Pike and
