Intelligence has been received here of the
death of Mrs. Lee, widow of General Rob
ert +. Lee, at Lexington, Virginia. on
Wednesday, the fifth instant. She had bee u
an Invalid for some years, and the recent

her declining strength. Mrs. Lee was the
only daughter of George Washington Parke

child OF John Parke Gusts, sen OF Mrs
Washington by her first husband, and aide
de-camp to General Washington at the
siege OF Yorktown. His two youngest chill
dren, one of them the father of Mrs Lee,
were adopted by General Washington. G. w.

Ill 1872, when he went to reside on the Ar
lington estate near the city. which he had
inherited from his father, and where he mad
erected the fine mansion known as the Ar
lington House. He was married in early
life to Miss Mary Lee Fitzhugh, of Virginia,
and left an only daughter who became the
wife of General Robert E. Lee The late

Balls.

Prominent among the festivities that are
magic touch of Terpsichore's flowing gar
land, must be noted the ball announced to
be given by st. Andrews Society, on the
night of December ] at Grune wald Hall.
The proceeds are to be deposited with the
charitable fund of the society. Apart from
the charitable object to be achieved b5 this
soiree duasaste, the names OF such man
ayers as p. Mcbride William Murray,
James Fry and S. +. Munroe are perfect
guarantee of the superior character Of the
entertainments.
Vigiant Steam Fire Company No. 3 gives
a grand fancy dress and tiremen's ball at
Odd Fellows Hall next Saturday evening.
We always liked that idea of the fremen
wearing their uniforms at balls and parties.
1t is graceful thought to don the uniform
i'll which they are wont to brave hardship
and danger, and the fair sex is always
proud to see the boys in fire array.
Washington Hook and Ladder Fire Com
pany No. | has its anniversary party on
Tuesday evening next, at its truck house.
There Will be a nice time there. We know
it, for we've been in Algiers, and we can
Judge from personal experience of the gen
erous and elegant manner with which
Washington No. will conduct it's party.
The Pickwick Quadrille Club gave their
first grand fancy dress and masquerade
ball at the Exposition Hall last night,
which proved to be happy occasion. The
committee Of arrangements, of which Mr..
j. d. Fison was chairman, lett nothing un-
done for the entertainment of the guests of
the club. The hall WAS beautifully decor
ated, and conspicuous in its centre was
fountain of water with jets of many colors.
Dancing was kept up until a late hour.
At the Home Hook and Ladder Hall was
also given another ball-a calico ball-by
tue members OF the Crescent City Benevo-
lent Association Messrs. C. C.. Piper, w.
Gill and CUE. Burt, committee of arrange
ments The ladies were out in force, and
looked as lovely in their tasteiully made
calico dresses as they have appeared or
other occasions in satin trains.
The Concordla G.ee Club inaugurated the
ball season last night at the beautiful new
Grune wald Hall. 1t was charming affair,
and greatly enjoyed. The hall, which
scarcely needed further decoration, was
richly ornamented with evergreens and
flowers. The arrangements for refresh:
naents we're most complete, the music was
fine, and witching smiles and bright eyes
made the hours speed away all too soon.
Mach of the success of the party was due
to Messrs. Charles Burkhardt, A. A. Vallas,
j. A. Bourg and L. A. Kursteu, members
of the club.

Rex.

Elsewhere in our columns viii be found
General Orders No. 297l. from Warwick,
Earl Marshal of the Empire. The atten-
ton Of all good citizens of his majesty is
called to the order, and immediate obe-
dience quietly suggested. His majesty is
1nerciful, nay indulgent even. but in the
matter of military discipline he is rigdly
strict, as all those now living, who were
with Rex in the first years of his reign, can
testify.
His majesty had ordered a grand naval
review of the Euxine fleet, and in order to
have the jolly Jack tars in good spirits, he
decrecd that Every Jack should have his
Gh'-meaning a gill of whisky. One OF
tue principal vice commanders was Ned
Stoak, who, misinterpreting the order,
seized upon the jill of Gin Viske, a brother
vice-commander. Viske sought out Stoak,
and finding him in a caravanserai snot at
him, with intent to kill him. but the bullet
bounded back from the breast OF Stoak, and
entered the body of Viske himself, killing
him. 1t seems that Stoak had in his pocket
a copy of the statute laws relating TO jury
trials.
His Majesty. though caring nothing for
the fate of Fiske, which, he wisely re-
marked, had been caused by his own action,
was sore angered against Stoak that he
should have allowed the sacred laws regard
ing jury trials to be assailed and made
target of. He therefore retired Stoak from
public life for a brief period. And the peo-
pie declared that never was there such JUS
tice joined with such searching wisdom.
At another time two women appeared be-
fore Rex, each claiming as her child the
same. The sapient Rex did not order the
boy cut iii half and divided between the
disputants; for sections We're tabooed in his
infantry tactics He decreed that they
should both be mothers-in law to the youth
and condemned the boy to live with his
legal maternal relatives. As the boy was
the cause Of all the fuss il was but right
that his punishme mt should be greater than
he could bear.
The loyal and true should ponder well
these "reminiscences that show so clearly his
Majesty ssundness of mind and goodness
of heart Those seeking redress OF griev-
ances, or desiring to enter his Maiesty's
service, should communicate with Warwick

weighing 1913 pounds, and being nearly six
feet in height, and celebrated for his energy
and perseverance in carrying out any plan
once undertaken. He had been seaman
in the navy, and later an actor, in aemall
way, at minor theatres. 1t has been Said
that he wasted his lite in fool-hardy en-
terprise; one that could have resulted in
no good, even if it had been successful.
Be that as it may be, we still regret he
did not live TO reach our city. The
powers of human endurance have their
limits, and constant exposure to the ever
changing caprice of weather, with its
sun and cloud. cold and rain with its chill
and fever influence, proved too much for
him. His boat was discovered near Plaque
mine, ll0 miles from New Orleans, but no
occupant was visible from the shore. The
little Jennie" that had responded SO
lightly to the touch of the masters oars,
was now drifting in the stream, without
hand to guide. Cloud was found PROSTATE
in his boat, exhausted and very i'll. He
was taken on shore and tenderly cared for
by stranger hands. 1t was evident that he
could not live; his thoughts wandered to
other scenes and other people, and in
twenty:four hours after being taken from
the skiff he breathed no more. He has been
laid to rest near the banks of our great
river. Who can tell the agonies he
must have suffered while drifting
down on it's broad surface, in the lone cold
nights, with no hand to succor or save, bat
tling for life, and striving to row away
from the grim spectre, death9 There is
something pathetic in the appearance of
the little red memorandum book. The last
entries show an unsteady hand. The fever
was upon him. He often spoke of the sing
ing Of birds, and the last words written
were of the ringing of beautiful bells in
the village. Perhaps there are yet loved
friends living who can tell to what scenes
of his boyhood days his mind was wander
ing. He appears then to have given up all
hope. The pencil drops from his nerveless
hand. His oars are shipped forever, and
under the starry sky, and on the bosom of
the calm and quiet river he lies down to
meet bis fate. Poor Cloud who shall say
he was not d hero!
