General Patterson Dead.

vETEAAS or TusEE WARS DIES N ms
NISETIE1H YEAR
General ISpbert Patterson died at his
residence. ASper ct Thirteenth and
Locust strl ~ Philadelphia, at $50
O'Clock SuS T'ning, after an illness
OF orer Dn Saturday morning.
July 30 ~ was at his place OF
business seAit street, below Sec.
old- ,hS5gs unable to remain there
long. That evening he was taken vio
lently i'll, growing rapidly worse on
Sunday and Monday. On the latter
day his pulse sank to Is. and was scarce
ly perceptible. No hopes were enter
tanned OF his recovery. and indeed his
physician and family did not think he
could live the day through. The Gen.
erals iron constitution, which had be
fore carried him through severe attacks
OF sickness, now stood him in good
need. Although he was in his Goth
year, there was n noticeable improve
ment IN the patients condition on
Tuesday and Wednesday. his pulse ris.
ing to nearly 40. On Thursday, how
ever, the General was attacked with
HiCAthh NJ AhtFtNtiH VI u lew
hours, lasting until Saturday. During
these paroxysms he was unconscious,
and for few minutes after the pain
had subsidized no beating of the heart
could be perceived, so faint was the ac.
ton Of that organ, while the patient
had every appearance of death. These
attacks greatly weakened him, but the
will power of the veteran of three wars
could not easily be conquered. Even
Sunday afternoon he eat up in bed and
ate food with relish and drank glass
of wine.
When DR.. Goodman visited his pa.
tient Sunday evening at o'clock he
found the General in n comfortable con
dition. though he acknowledged to feel
ing weaker than in the morning. There
were no signs of an immediate dissolu.
ton. few minutes after Dr. Good.
man stepped out OF the sick room, and
during his absence General Patterson
arose from bed. He was unable to get
back again unassisted as he had done
before. and when DR.. Goodman return.
ed at S.25 o'clock the General was ly.
ing quietly in bed, his eyes closed and
breathing softly. On feeling Of the
pulse there was scarcely futter, and in
FIVE minutes more it had ceased alto.
gether, death ensuing as peacefully as
sleep.
The Generals two daughters, Mrs.
Snowden and Mrs. Lynde. were at his
bedside during his dying moments. His
son, General Robert +. Patterson, was
at his country residence at Waverley
Heights during the day, as there was no
signs of immediate death. He was tel.
egraphed for as soon as the alarming
symptoms appeared, but did not reach
his fathers bedside until some hours
after death had ensued. The General
leaves one other child. William, who re.
sides IN Tennessee, several grandchil.
dren and eight great grandchildren
His son. General Francis +. Patterson,
and q daughter, Mrs. General Aber.
crombie, died some years since. The
Generals younger brother, Colonel Jo.
seph T. Patterson, of Tennessee. arrived
In the city a few days since. but was not
with his brother at the time of his
death. Fatty degeneration of the heart
coupled with Bright's disease Of the
! kidneys caused the Generals death.

er; that we will make every effort to
secure n settlement of tho public debt,
with the consent OF her creditors, which
il consistent with her honor and die.
tated by justice and sound policy that
il is eminently desirable and proper
that the several classes of the debt now
existing should be unified, so shat
equality, which is equity, may control
in the annual payment of the interest
and the ultimate redemption of the
principal that with the view OF secur
ing such equality we pledge our party
to use all lawful authority TO secure a
settlement of the State debt, so that
there shall be but one class OF public
debt that We will use all the lawful
and constitutional means in our power
to secure n settlement upon the basis
of a per cent bond, and that the
Conservative Democratic party pledges
itself as part of its policy not to in.
crease the present rate of taxation.
Third. That we will uphold in its full
constitutional integrity and efficiency
our public school system for the educa-
ton of both white and colored children,
system inaugurated by the Constitu.
ton of the State and established by the
action of the Conservative party years
before it was required by the Consttu.
ton, and will take the most etfectual
means for the faithful execution of the
same by applying to its support all the
revenues set apart for that object by
the Constitution or otherwise.
Fourth. Upon this declaration OF
principles we cordially invite the co
operation of all Conservative Demo.
Gratis, whatever may have been or now
are their views upon the public debt, in
the election of the nominees OF this
convention and in the maintenance of
the supremacy of the Democaatic party
in this State.
RESOLVED, further, That any intima.
ton coming from any quarter that the
Conservative Democratic party of Nir.
ginia has been, is now, or proposes to
be opposed to an honest ballot and n
fair count is calumny upon the State
of Virginia, as unfounded in fact as it
is dishonorable to its authors that
special efforts be made to foster and en-.
courage the agricultural, mechanical,
mining, manufacturing and other in.

The reading Of the report was fre-
quently interrupted by applause, and
at the conclusion it was unanimously
adopted.
The following resolution offered by
General Talisierro, was adopted by "A
unanimous vote, amid an enthusiastic
display of feeling:
Rs5oired, by the convention, That, in
common with all good citizens OF the
Union we reflect with deep adherence
upon the crime of the man who aimed
blow at the life OF the eminent citi.
zen who was called by the constitution
al voice of 50.OO0,0O0 people to be the
President of the United States, and we
tender to him and to his family the
sympathy and respect of this conven.
ton and OF those we repesent in his
great calamity and our hearty desire
for his complete restoration to health
and return to the discharge of his du.
ties for the welfare and honor OF our
common country.

We the Liquor Dealers q lHssissjppi declare
bat we fully recognize the ght OF the peo-
pie u express their viii through the ba Hot
box upon the question of prohi biting the traffic
in liquors. and that al good citizens should
abide by and res 5ect the peoples viii on thu
subject when fairly ascerfaiued. We believe
also that il il both just and wise that the ex
preston Of the popular win on this subject
suould be had when had al all, upon that sim
gle question on its own merits unaffected bv
any political issues, or the merits of other
questions or the candidacy OF aspirants for
Office.
Believing il impracticabIe 10 get a fair ex-
preston of the VIII Of the people on this sim
gle question ~ any general election, when po-
Iitical excitement usually runs high and the
question cannot be separated from other IS
sues we respectfully suggest to the next Leg

satisfactory mode Of testing the will OF the
ge0pIc on the subject, il test be desired l.
nor by constitutional amendment, which
must be IA tilted or rejected at general cleo
ton but Big a special election held distinctly
for tine purpose of determining the question by
s, direct vote OF the people
After the adoption o. the address, a good
deal of dissatisfaction was expressed at its
mild and temperate treatment Of the subject,
and the following resolutions were also offered
and after "A full and free discussion, were
) adopted by small majority

ton ia his county use all lawful and honorable
means ia their power to elect some othe
person in his stead, who fav0rs the laws II
manning unmOlested.
The chairman, Dr. Peoples, said the las
resolutions were so at variance with his feel
iings and sentiments, that he could not cor
sistentIy preside longer over the Convention
and asked 10 be excused.
Mr. Geo. Lemon, Of Jackson, was the
elected chairman; aud the Association pr
ceeded to the -action of such othe
business as was deemed Of interest an
importance. 4 committee was appointed

Death of DR.. VIM. r.. Hooker.

The painful intelligence of the death o
DIR. VIM. Il. Hooker, reached town on Wed
nesday. 1t seems that he had been GU
Tuesday night attending a professional call
and on returning, from some cause fell from
his horse or was thrown from him, and while
lying in the road, a heavily loaded wagon
OK team, ran over him and so crushed him
that he died in twenty minutes. The driver
of the team was i6isurely walking behind
his wagon, and knew nothing Of what had
happened until he heard the cry for help
He went to the assistance of the Doctor and
tried to raise him up, but he told him to
lay him down again, and in twenty minutes
he was dead.
DR.. Hooker was comparatively young
man. He was the son of the late Col. la
dock Hooker, of Copiah County, and brother
of Hon. c. E. Hooker, member of Congress
from this State, and native of South Caro-
lima. He settled in this county some years
ago, and married the daughter of Mr.. Bar
dee Sergrist, a respectable planter in the
