RESPECT TO SENATOR COCHRAN's
MEMoRY.-In the Senate of Virginia
last Tuesday, Mr.. Koiner presented the
following preamble and resolutions,
which were unanimously adopted:
Whereas the senate has heard with
deep sorrow of the death of Alexander
B. Cochran, late Senator from the Six
tenth district, whose thorough training
as politician and statesman gave him
a commanding position his fine tai
ents as debater and orator excIteG ad-
miration his zeal aud devotion to his
COUNTY, entitle HIM to the appellation
of patriot as well as that OF statesman
and orator; his long and distinguished
service in the General Assembly has
rendered his name familiar to the pee
pie of Virginia, who ranked him
among their distinguished sons; and
whereas it is proper that the Senate
should give public expression OF the
loss which the people OF Virginia have
sustained in bis death thYFefafe hf it
Resolved, That In the death of Alex
ander b. Cochran the Senate has lost
one of its most distinguished members,
the Sixteenth district an able represent
alive, and Virginia one of her most
gifted sons.
ResolaeJ. That the symnathies of lhe
members Of the Senate be communicated
to'the aged father and relatives OF the
deceased, to whom the clerk of the Sen
ate is directed to furnish copy of these
resolutions,
ResOkijeG. AS & further marx of re-
spect to the memory of the DECEASED,

and Marshall on the character of Judge
Cochran.

ADMISSION OF EUsTIs.-Eustis OF
louisiana having been admitted to seat
in the United States Senate, the New
York Herald says:
"Every State in the Union has now
its full representation in the Senate &C
cording to the constitution. The admis-
sion of Mr.. Eustis closes every part of
the Southern controversy so far as it can
be made question of practical politics.
There is no possibility of the resuscita-
ton of carpet bag rule or negro rule or
any other rule than that of the white
citizens in the Southern States. In ad-
hitting Mr.. Kellogg the republican
Senators gathered the last fruit of what
will henceforth be barren tree. The
way is now open for general dissolu-
ton and reorganization of political par
ties"

ing notes, which yoh may think proper
to publish.
The waters of the Little Calf Pasture
river did considerable damage, by washs
ing crops, fencings, bridges, aud even
soil, during the late freshet. Some corn
and fodder were swept off from the
Crawford's Springs farm. Mr.. Conrad
Werner, who lived next below, had his
hog-pen and about half his tattening
hogs swept away. sfhe water opened d
new channel, aud NOW MOSTLY runs on
the east instead of the west side of his
house; leaving all his Improvements on
an island. The water was fully waist
deep in his stable, when he succeeded
in removing his horses. The water Wsasss
not quite as high as in 1870 ''"@
The Big river was about seventeen
inches higher than -'kHowH' before. 1t
rendered the roads almost mpassable in
places. Washed away some gFain feencc.
ing and soil. John 3. Ramsey Waded

built for Il purpose since the freshet OF
1871.
The road known as the Free turnpike,

sable. The authorities OF Rockbridge
and Bath are considering the propriety
Of opening a new road on higher gr9nAa:

"Keber Ker, Grand Worthy Counsellor re-

DR.. SEARss LECTURE.-The lecture OF W.
Sears on 1.-THE Rhine in the Hall OF the Y. M.
G. A. on last Tuesday night was both interest
ing and instructive.
With the aid of drawing OF that river on
scale large enough to be seen distinctly from all
parts Of the hall, he showed the locality OF Inc
towns and points of special interest, whilst ne
gave the history of them, and the legends con-
nected Herewith, which he had translated from
the German into English. He gave also the
topography of the country through which the
Rhine passes on its course from its sources in
the mountains Of Switzerland to where it emp
ties its waters into the North Sea-
He showed why 1t was that its tributaries
were chiefly from the East, and how the lakes
in its course protect the Rhine Valley from De-
ing flooded when the river above is swollen py
rains and melting SHOWS, as they form large
reservoirs which are never caused to rise more
than nine inches. The country above the lakes
suffers by freshets, but not below. On portion
of the Rhine, vineyards mantle the eartn rom
the rivers edge to the mountains top-tne
mildest wine being made from thegrapes grown
on the low grounds. The numerous casteson
the Rhine are lower down the river, and aoouI
that portion of it is connected very interesting
history and thrilling adventures.
