The Death of Minister Orr.


New YORK, May 3l.-A letter to the Tri-
hume from St, Petersburg, dated the 9Th inst.
SAYS: 1.-THE diplomatic career of Gov. Orr
came to a painful end before it was fairly be-
gun. Its not quite two months since he ar
rived in St. Petersburg and presented his Gre
dentials to the Emperor. lie was suffering at
the time from severe cold contracted during
the Atlantic passage and about a week after
his formal installation in his new office, he was
forced to take to his bed. From that day he
did not leave bis apartments. The cold settled
on his lungs and afterwards passed to his liver
so that his blood became seriousI affected No
serious result was apprehendcd, however, and
on Friday, four days before he died, his friends
thought he was slowly, yet steadily improving,
but on Monday last the last change came and be
died quite suddenly at clock. The funeral SER
vices were celebrated to-day at the capel of the
EngIish-American Society. There was no dis
course and the pastor simply read the impress
sive ritual of the Church Of England and closed
with short prayer. The gloomy little chapel
was by no means full There were some
dozen ladies, English and American, half
a dozen American gentleman in black and
thirty or forty diplomats in their brilliant,
vet sombre, court costumes. The Aus
TRAN Ambassador was there, the ministers
of Brazil, Italy, Greece and attaches of
other legations, as we'll as Of the Foreign
Office. MIR. J. L. Orr, jr., the solitary family
mourner stood side by side with General
Pomutz, the consul who wore the familiar uni
form of Brigadier General OF the American
army. The scene was undescribably sad. At
ter the rector had finished the service the d.
plomatists walked around the coffin and drop
ped each upon it little sand. The civilians
present did the same.
