GONE TO HIS LONG HoME.-W. II. bod
son. one of the finest writer's ever on the
press of New Orleans. died in the hospital
from an attack of smallpox. One of the
best articles ever written on the power of
the American press was published by him
in a country newspaper, and those who are
competent Judges say it is about the finest
piece of English composition composed in
the last century. He was a writer of great
ability. but his failing, fondness for strong
drink, kept him in the rear ranks. Several
years ago he was the brains and nerve OF
the Picayu,,e, but he remained there only
short time, failing to perform the important
