Death of Samuel w, Dorsey

Samuel WoIthington Dorsey, formerly a
well known citizen of Vicksburg, but for
many years q resident of the parish OF
Tensas, Louisiana. died at his late residence
of that parish last Monday, the eighteenth,
of t n-ilitis. Mr.. Dorsey was a lawyer
by profession, and served several SEES.
sions as a member of the Louisiana Legisla-
ture, where his sterling good sense, un.
questioned integrity, and kindly nature
gave him a commanding influence.
Mr. Dorsey was born In April, 1911, and
was consequently in the sixty fifth year of
his age. He was native of Howard county,
Maryland, and was the son OF Thomas BeaJi
Dorsey, an eminent jurist, who was for forty
years Chief Justice OF this State. A man of
fortune from bic youth up, Mr.. Dorsey had
no inducement to labor in his profession,
aud utterly unambitious of what the world
calls distinction, his modest, affable nature
found its richest enjoyment in the social
circle. There his genial and generous dis
position was most at home, and there he
found his greatest happiness
The deceased haG many friends, BY whom
his death will be sincerely regretted. He
leaves . widow, q lady of rare intellect, and
On author of distinction, but no children.
His remains have been sent to MARYLAND,
to be laid at rest in the bosom of the State

The South to Have the speakership.


The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial says:
1t has been Understood that there has
been for some time a quiet understanding
between the supporters of Tiden for Presi.
dent IN New York and New England, and
the supporters of Mr.. Kerr, of Indiana, for
Speaker, throughout the country generally,
Of reciprocal nature. Kerr's friends have
been sure OF the support of the Tildenltea,
on the ground that the Speaker of the
House end the candidate for President
ought not to be taken from the same section,
Quite recently, however, the New England
Democratic have been very quietly setting
things no to secure the election Of ex Gov.
ernor Walker. Of Virginia, as Speaker. The
movement has already assimed formidable
proportions, and will doubtless give rise to
q great deal Of bad feeling. The canvass
for the Speskership is daily growing more
heated and acrimopiOus.
