While at Cincinnati he attended the
lectures of the Ohio Medical College

He visited the West with the in
tention of remaining there, but cir
cumstanees led him once more back
to his native Carolinas, where he prac-
ticed his profession till the outbreak
of the war of 1861.
During this period of his life he ex-
pressed storing anti slavery sentiments.
notwithstanding the odium which his
slaveholding neighbors heaped upon
him, and even went so tar as to assist
the negro with advice and means.
This not only injured his practice, but
also endangered his life
In 1861 DIR. Hill, in company with
DIR. Lindley, brought his family out of

believe there would be a war OF races.
AMES' vILLANY.
Think the attack on VicksburR was ordered BY
Governor Ames to create the impression that the
people here would slaughter the blacks at every
opportunity; generally speaking the leading re-
puDiicans OF this state were not ldentlfied with
tine interests or the State beyond their officlal
salaries; had heard Governor Ames declare he
would not live In this State u gwen the
whole OF 1t: think there must be
change in the policy Of the leaders before
the State can have permanent ana stable
relief; the statements OF Governor Ames to Gen.
eral Sheridan OF the present necessity here lor
troops which arrived here to-day, are undouDtedly
fase; troops were asked for political effect; II the
Governor lad come here be ore the laie troubles
and In vestigated anairs and shown the least dis
position TO act fairly, all trouble would have been
sverted.
The Committee adjourned at halfpast Ave
D. clock p. NJ. until ten O'CLOCK tomorrow morning.
From the present indications the investigation
viii proDaoiy continue beyond this week.
One company OF the Third Infantry, under Lieu.
tenant Roe arrived here this morning.

OBITUARY.
GEORGE GRIFFITH.

Ex-Alderman George Griffith, prominent citi-
zen Of Paterson, died suddenly IN that city last
evening. He had been complaining some time, but
felt better and was talking with a friend IN his
store, in Market street, when he was taken with a
severe congestive chill, which resulted In his
death in lew minutes. For six years he was a
representative In the Boa1d OF Aldermen from the
Sixth ward, MS place having been taken last April
by Mr.. Morehead, his successful opponent. He
was first elected Alderman in April, 1855, and was
chosen Comptroller by the Board for that and
man again in 1870, and once more In 1872. For a
long time he was captain OF the City Blues, and at
the time OF his death a member OF the Old Guard.
The few surviving members OF this time honored
organization will participate in the funeral
services
