DEATH OF CAPTAIN WILLIAM GAY One
by one the old citizens of this city, who
have seen their adopted place grow Up from
a small hamlet, the forests cut down and
transferred into dwellings and business
houses, aud a large, enterprisiDg city take
the place of the village, are passing away to
become only known to memory. The last
death recorded among the men who have
grown up aid become identified with the
city's prosperity is that of William Gay, who
died yesterday morning at his residence,
on Walnut near Eighth. William Gay
came to this city in the year 1919,
when, of course, the city consisted OF
hut few struggling houses. He engaged In
business as a clerk for short period, but soon
afterwards became closely connected with
river interests, and became commander,
builder, and part-owner of a number OF
steamers plying between here and New Or
leans. In 1887, or about that period, he en-
parked his capital in the grocery business,
which be continued up to the time Of his
death. In this business he amassed con.
siderable fortune, and being bachelor, kept
an open, hospiiable house. In December,
1872, be became seriously i'll, and has been
lingering in the lap Of death ever since. he
was likewise, it is worthy Of note, a director
of the Bank of Louisville since its incipiency
in 1887. He died at the good old age OF
seventy -seven.-L Louisville Courier, 7th.
Mr.. Gay was the uncle of the late Mrs
James Neesou, Of this city, to whose chill
dren, it is understood, large part of hi:
estate will descend. Mr. Neeson is the ex
ccutor of Mr.. Gays will, and is now en- route
| to Louisville to take charge Of the estate.

Chase's Conscience.
A NOTABLE LETTER FROM THE LATE CHIEF.
JUSTICE TO JAY COOKE, DATED JUNE 2, 1868.
rShucker,s life of Chase. !

IShucker's life Of Chasel
j" =. You informed me two or three
weeks ago that you had purchased 800 shares
Of Philadelphia and Erie railroad stock for
me. At that time was expecting means Of
payment from the sale Of farm ip Ohio, and
would have been glad to hold the stock fol
income. The sale, however, has not yet beer
effected, and I have therefore not been able
to make payment.
s'This morning have yours of yesterday
notifying me that you have sold the stock a,
an advance which gives profit Of $4,000 on
the transaction, and you inclose me checE
for that amount.
"As had not paid for the stock, and did
not contemplate purchasing with any view
to resale, cannot regard the profit as mine,
and, therefore, return the check for "a, 200
It Is herewith inciosed.
ST am much obliged to you for your will
ingness to regard the money paid for the
stock as temporary loan from you to me
But cannot accept the favor.
"When Congress, at the last session, saw
fit to clothe me with very large powers over
currency and financial movements. I deter.
mined to avoid every act which could give
occasion to any suspicion that would use
the powers conferred on me TO affect markets
unnecessarily, or at all, with reference to the
private advantage Of any body. To carry out
this determination faithfully, I must decline
to receive any advantage from purchases OF
sales made with views to profits expected
from the rise or fall of market prices.
!" For these reasons / must decline to re
ceige the check. For, in; order to be able to
render the most efficient service to our coun
try, it is essential for me to ie right as wei
as 10 seem right, and to seem right as web q
to be right.

ACQUISITION i'm photography

/ have recently had discussion with some
experienced proof.readers as to the spell
ing of two Virginia proper names, and
submit the matter to the Dispatch, which
seems to be posted in all such matters.
Is our historic river rightly written Rap
iddn" or "Ropid Am"? Aud should we
write our good old county of the s" Minute
Men" Of '7G and 81, " Cupeper" orr Cul'
uepper"9 Northern writers invariably write
:" Rapidan," and 4" Culpepper ~; but are they
not wrong in both cases! J. W.J.
On The Wing, September Sth, 1874.
The fact that word was originally spelled
in a given way does not prove that that is
the right way to spell it now. Nobody now
a-dsys spells q economy as it was originally
spelled" Economy" and few persons use
gu" in honcr," labor" &c. Hence ii
will not do 10 say that word is Incorrectly
spelled at this day becausc il was once Sp.lled
differently. Our correspondent would not
write :. Fluvanna " as it was originally writ
ten" Feuye Anna" We give it as our
opinion, therefore, that whilst the names re.
ferred to by our correspondent were origi'
nally written "Rapid Ann" and Colepep.
per" the best usage now renders it neces.
sary to write them g Culpeper" and era.

A FISH SToRY.-A Florida correspondent,
in the course of an interesting communities
ton regarding Florida fisheries, says:
"The best fishermen in Florida are the
pelicans and ospreys. A pelican consumes
about peck of fish a day. They flock about
the inlets and straits by thousands. Sup
posing there are 100000 pelicans in Flori.
da-there are certainly more than that-they
would eat SOC, 1000 bushels of fish each day
or 1872 100000 bushels per year. The mil
lions upon millions of white and blue cranes,
herons, curews, gulls, fish.hawks, king
fishers, and other waterfowl, devour thou
sands of bushels of fish every twenty-four
hours.
Gan experienced Cracker estimates that
100000 bushels of fish day are required to
feed the birds of Florida alone. This would
make 225,500,000 bushels each year. Add
to this the billions Of fish swallowed by
sharks, bass, and others, and the sum tota
| will reach nearly 2,0O0,000,000 bushels de-
stroyed by feathered and tinny fishermen or
the peninsula in twelve months. At frs
glance these figures appear enormous; bu
let any man make his own estimate, and care
fully figure it up, and he will find them I'M
| der instead of over"

Editors of the Dispatch, Some time since /

spot. Allow me to give you side.piece to
this of american social circumstances. In

came to this city TO hunt employment. He
was taken with bilious attack. Too proud
to state the true condition OF affairs to his
friends, he died September 7th att p. M.
