SUDDEN DEATH-Mr David Rgsby, of
this city, died very suddenly on Monday even
Ing, a week ago. He was in his usual health
up to the day before his death Mr. Rigsby
was the largest man, VIC suppose, in the ceun-
ty, his weight being over 800 pounds. He
was amiable in disposition and industrious in
his habits and died without an enemy.
DEATH OF A VENERABLE LADY-Truly
the sickle Of death has been busy in our midst
the past year, and this has been mournfully
true Of our more aged citizens. Within the
past year we have had the painful
duty Of chronicling the demise Of many
who have passed beyond the bourne, having
reached the limit set to their voyage upon the
tide Of time Again we are called upon to add
another to the roll Of iusatiate death, and
this time the name Of one, who long filled a
high place in the affections and esteem of this
community. % the quiet morn Of Sabbath
last the beloved consort of our venerable and
honored townsman, Daniel Burkhart, Esq,
passed from earth to that better land The home
beyond the skies.

The Postal Law

The Washington correspondent o' lie Bllti-
more Sun furd.ehe- 'he 0lo~as ilf.ymation
in relation to the Postal Law which lately
passed Congress
Hundreds Of letters are being received here
daily, containing inquiries as to the modlfica-
tions of the postal laws made at the last ses-
sion. Many people are of the impression that
the reduction Of letter postage to two cents was
passed by both Houses A great deal of IN
certainty exists also among the the people in
the country, subscribers to newspapers, rs to
whether the provisions requiring prepayment
Of newspaper postage at the Office Of publica-
ton finally became a law A widespread i'm
preston prevails hatsuch is the case This
is erroneous. As has already been stated, the
provision prohibiting the Transmission Of any
free matter whatever after juno next was put
in the postOffice appropriation bill, and is now
q law. But the proposed reduction of letter
postage failed 10 receive the approval of the
Senate, and the rate remains at three cents for
single letters. The provision requiring the
prepayment Of postage on newspapers at the
place of publication was finally also lost and
the present regulations in this respect therefore
remain 10 force.

Senator Il. G. Davis.

We Lave watched with no ordinary degree
Of interest the course Of Senator Davis, as the
representative Of West Virginia, in the United
States Senate, and it gives US not Only great
pleasure to attest his devotion to tue great
principles Of democratic free government, but
also to bear testimony to bis walchfnl care over
all legislation likely To bear upon the interests
Of his constituency. When it is remember
ed that Senator Davis is comparatively a
young man, with but little experience in pub
lie life. and that his occupations were not of
the kind to fit him for the exalted duties to
which he has been called, it is certainly high
y complimentary to his talents aud aptitude,
that in so short an experience, be has attained
to a very influential position in the graves. de-
iberatc body known to our system of govern
ment. We with the more pleasure note these
facts, since it is well known we are not very
friendly to Mr. DIS Senatorial aspirations

A Scrap of History.

The first Legislature Of this State was al
ways admitted to have been composed Of the
best intellects Of the State. It's members were
generally able andexpericnccd legslators-yot
that body was in continuous session from June
20 to December llth, 1868, almost six months,
in changing and asSimilatiug the laws of Eir-
ginia to the new order Of things under the
Constitution Of the new State Besides this,
in less than six weeks after the adjournment Of
the first Legislature, another one assembled
and was in session more than six weeks, max
ing altogether nearly eight months time And
yet there was no grumbling, because it was ac-
tually necessary to have these long sessions, to
set everything going smoothly. The same ne
cessity exists now, in passing from the old
order Of things to The new, and considering the
inexperience Of almost the entire body, right
rapidly aud well has the work been done
The real work so far has been done in the COM
mittees, and consequently the meagre reports
Of the legislative proceedings make it appear
that little has been done or is doing, but from
now to the end Of the session the reports from
the various committees will be coming in, and
will evidence the fact that the best interests Of
the State are being cared for, and that rcal,
earnest and hard labor has been rerformed-

PARDON OF A BIGAMIsT. Thomas r. Bird.
who was convicted Of bigamy about two years
ago, and sent to the penitentiary from Alexan-
dria Virginia, was pardoned on Thursday
by Governor Walker, of Virginia. The
Governor gives several reasons for this pardon
The jury thought there were such extenuatiug
circumstances that if the law had permitted
they wO0ld have limited the punishment to a
less time in the penitentiary. Bird had been
id prison already over twenty months, and his
pardon had been asked for by more than three
hundred worthy citizens, including one hun
dred members Of the General Assembly.

FEARFUL LEAP.-A fire broke out in the St.
James Hotel, Montreal, Canada, on the 18th
instant. The stairway leading into the serv-
ants apartments, in the fifth story, was soon
in flames, and escape by It was cut off. There
was, Of course, 10 other means Of exit. As at
the Fifth Avenue, the girls were Gagged, like
rats in a trap. Frightened, nearly suffocated
and scarcely knowing what they did, three Of
them took fearful leap from the top of the
building to the ground, where the people, by
spreading mattresses, had done all they could
to break the force Of the fall. These girls now
lie in the hospital, bruised and stunned, aad
hanging between life and death. Another Of
the girls hung out Of the window, at that dizzy
height, for t'ceHty minutes, when she was
rescued by the fremen.
