TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER IL
DEATH OF MAJOR VEITCH.

from the Jefferson Co., Texas Democrat
Mai. Dan. A. Veitch, Associate Editor OF the
Democrat, Ia native of Alexandria, Ia.,) died
Yesterday morning at about 2 o'clock, at the
residence of Mr. f. f. Collins, TWO miles from
this city. In falling health, he had repaired 70
MIR. G. 5 by invitation, confident OF being able
70 return ia az few days and attend to his edlto,
rial duties, when he was suddenly attacked
with Aux, and after brief illness expired.
We announce his death with feelings Of
heartfelt sorrow. He had many sterling quail
ties that eudeared him to us aud to all who
knew him: capacouS and we'll cultivated mind;
q heart glowing with reiud sensibllity; a nature
generous to fault; an integrity that was uu;;
Swerving a high moral courage, that impaired
AN exalted tone to all his actions. and to that
patriotism which added lustre to his char
acter.
Tn Missouri, where he resided before nc
came South, be had host OF admlrlng TRENDS,
and, as an evidence oft, he was three times
elected Mayor of Lexington, in that State, over
the most powerful and popular men OF thai
city. -,
At an early period of the war he joined thai
band of self-sacrihcing patriots who abandoned
their homes in Missouri to take part IN the
momentus struggle, and whose deeds otherolsu
ana QeV0tlOU can OcVeT Ue lulSOtleu. IIe wa
elected Major in au artillery regiment where
he won the confidence aud love of his soldiers
and his superior officers.
After the war, he settled at RuSk, Cherokee
county, Texas and for many years edited the
Rusk Observer one OF the most able journals
in the State. 1t will be sad news to his many
friends there to learn that be has passed away
When such men as Major Veitch die, society
sustaius great loss, and journalism severe
blow. Among those engaged in shaping the
public policy Of the country, and giving tone
and elevation to the higher and nobler I'M
pulses of man S nature, he stood conspicuous.
But he has gone. The eye that ever beam
ed with sincerity is closed in death; the generous
hand that ever cIaSped ours in fraterual friend
ship, is powerless; the heart whose .pulSatlons
were ever true to sympathy and friendship,
will vibrate no more; the form whose presence
was ever welcome will never visit US again 90
EARTH But looking to his virtues, we can but
excaim, that
Memory, faithful to her trust,
Will call them in beauty from the dust"
trusting that he may awaken with perennial
youth in the paradise of God.

CAPTAIN JAcK.-Captain Jack, the
chief of the tribe, and author of the villain
Gus plot, is full-b!ooded Modoc of about
thirty years of age, although he looks much
older. He has good head, though like
all Indians, the forehead is low and retreat
ing. His complexion is dark, being bright
copper color, and his eyes are black, full
and piercing. His hair long, hanging
down to the shoulders, and his face is entire
ly destitute of beard. His mouth is large,
and its shape indicates 6rmness and deter
mination, though it by no means denotes
cruelty and baseness-traits which Jack
seems to possess above all others. In mao
ner he is cool, self possessed and very dig
nifed. He insists upon being treated with
the greatest respect by all with whom he
comes in contact, and the chief ruler of
