Death of Col. e.. f.. Stuart.

The bar of Alexandria has been sadly de-
pletcd by death during the past few years, and
to-day it is our painful duty to add to the list
ofthe departed the name of Col" CHARLES
EDWARD STUART, whose death occurred at one
O'Clock on Christmas morning. Col. Stuart
had been suffering from pulmonary affection
tor some time, but it was not fully developed
until about mouth ago, since which time DC
was confined to his bed.
He was native Of this city, son OF the late
Charles T. Stuart, esq.,, and was in the fifty
second year of his age. For many years he
was prominently connected with the history o.
Alexandria, having been leading lawyer anc
a prominent politician, and.was frequently elect
ed Commonwealth Attorney, and at the time
of bis death held the position of Corporation At
torney, the duties of which Offices be performed
with zeal and ability.
Col. Stuart was man Of genial disposition
and few men had larger circle Of warmer OF
more devoted friends, aud his death, following
so close upon those Of Dulany, Brent, Hill ano
Taylor with whom, in life, he was so closely
connected by the ties of friendship and protes
sional brotherhood, will, cause vacuum, which,
like theirs, will be sadly felt and equally re-
orottod

Mill BURNED.-The valuable mill property
of MIR. James NJ. Downey, near Taylortown, 10
this county, was on Saturday night entirely
consumed by fire. The property embraced a
-four and grist ulll, dlstillcry and saw-ni, and
from its thorough repair and favorable location
was not only valuable 10 its owner, but a great
convenience to large and populous section OF
the county. The fire originated 10 the still
house, from which it was communicated to the
-four mill, which, with about , 900 bushels OF
wheat, so barrels of -four, about 800 bushels of
corn and cornmea and everything contained
iu it except an iron safe, were entirely destroy
ed So rapid was the progress of the fire that
it was with difficulty that the miller, who was
sleeping 10 the building, could be rescued. The
loss, must necessarily be very great and upon
it we are sorry to. learn, there was no insurance..
The mill was rented by Mr.. W. Scott Downey,
son of the proprietor, worthy and industrious
young man, upon whom the loss falls most
heavily. The fire was first discovered about 3
o clock Sunday morning, and having kindled in
the still-house which had not been useed for
the last year or two, the general impression is
that it was the work of an incendiary. --Lou.
