Tn the death of Mr.. Marx Cohen. which
occurred last night. our city loses one OF
its best Hebrew citizens. He was man o..
rrcat energy and had amassed for himseii
a handsome fortune. He was the oniy
s4r,c,lv wholesale dry-goods dealer IN the
citv. and did very large business. lie was
one of the pillars of the Synagogue IN TINS
city and will be greatly missed. In the
Absence of Rev. DR.. Myers. ana 'hs a m

Invited TO officiate ut the funerai, which
will take place tomorrow. ., 60

sum Of $3.50 TO keep the peace and be OF
good behavior. u.;.
r,n,ninc' the FIRST Of the season, and very
early one. too.
THE BrsT PLACE FOR TRIM.
ONLY one of the negro rioters from Nor
folk Who have been nut in Jail here has
lima far been able 10 eiSe bail for his APP
pearance for trial at the September term OF
the Hastings Court. Unless friends IN Nor
folk come 10 their assistance the others
Will have to remain in PRISON.
powpES's OFFENCE
II il said by Republicans here that the
,alstions between General Malone, the
State chairman. and Congressman Bowdon,
Of the Norfolk district. are very mnch
etrsined, and that the latter does not iind
favor nj headquarters" in his candidacy
for denomination. During the guoernatorlhi
campaign, when General Malone was away
on his canyassing tour. Mr.. Bowden had
charge of Republican headquarters here,
and gave general supervision TO the
carnpsirn. What has led TO tho
ERUPTION is not publicly stated. but
several causes are reported, one OF when
Is said to be MIR. Bowden's committai 70
iapeston in the lstter's contest LOT the
sest ia Congress tor this district. which IN
itself Is believed TO be an objectionable
offence Langston has always been re
parded as a bolter from the party by Cen
eral Malone, who not only opposed his
candidacy. but has strenuously opposed
him in his contest for the seat In Congress
The probability is that Mr.. Bowden Will
feel General MahOne's hand In the coming
campaign In the Second district.
PINE TOBACCO CROP.
II all accounts be true the prospects TOR
The tobacco crop throughout this section
are better than has been known IN many
years at this season. WhlIe the acreage -
not as large as usynl the quality and the
yield will be greatly better.
wHrRY A. p. HILL WAS BILLED.
A large delegation of A. 7. Hill Camp of
Confederate Veterans will 90 out to DIN
viddie county tomorrow TO officially de-
sippate the spot where the lamented Cen
eral. in honor of whom the camp Is named,
was killed. This spot has heretofore been
designated by Sergeant Tucker, now OF
New jersey, who was with General Hi
when he fell, but the camp desires 10 give
the spot its official sanction as matter or
historical interest, go that hereafter there
NAV be no doubt about the place. The
spot is only short distance beyond
Granite Grove. near the terminus OF the
ASYLUM railway, and is easily reached.
GOOD WORK FOR 1T.
And in this connection it can be stated
that the A. T.. Hill Camp might do good
work for the information OF future genera,
tons IN definitely settling by its Official
sanction the exact site of many OF the I'M
portant scenes and events OF the late war
whose true history is yet to be written.
The camp's headquarters are in the centre
OF some Of the most stirring scenes OF the
war, and its members are men VINO partl-
clpated in those events. and VINO are aDie.
from actual observation and partlclpa-
ton. to locate them exactly. TO talk ana
write about them. and to settle all doupt
about them as far as history is concerned.
Around Petersburg were enacted some OF
the greatest and most decisive events OF
the greatest of modern wars, and the men
are still alive 20 tell of them and point out
the places on which they occurred. 1t If
believed that. aside from its beneficiary
principle. this Will be in future one OF the
grand objects of A. i. Hill Camp. Surely
the material upon which they have to
work is of rich historical interest.
