Death of a War Department Clerk.

George II. Taggard, for the past thirteen
years a clerk in the office of the Secretary
Of War, died at his home, in Nashua, N.
H., on the Goth ultimo, after an illness Of
more than one year, aged fifty-eight years.
He was one of the most trusted clerks in
the department, modest, faithful and pains
taking in all things. He early responde /
to the call for soldiers in the late war, and
was promoted to be adjutant of his regi-
ment, the thirteenth New Hampshire vol
unteers and proved to be a valuable sol
der, one that could be depended upon in
an emergency, as wounds received, of which
he never entirely recovered, testify. After
the war he was elected eight years in sue
cesson as city clerk in his native city of
Nashua. For several years he was the
manager of the now defunct Atlantic and
Pacific Telegraph Company at Chicago and
Washington.

The Choir Returns.

The members of the Moody choir who
visited Richmond on Saturday returned to
this city on a special. arriving at 9:i5 last
evening.
The trip home was most delightful. AT
every station the party greeted those who
were on the platform with the singing OF
many of the favorte hymns.
Yesterday was spent by the party in see
ing the sights in and about Richmond.
Several omnibus parties were organized
and others made the tour Of the city in car
riageS.
An exciting incident occurred as the
train was leaving the depot at Richmond.
Mrs. Foster. the wife of the leader, who,
with her child, had been visiting friends
In the city, arrived at the station just in
time to see the train pull out The rail-
road officials telegraphed to have the train
stopped at Elba, five miles out, and calling
a carriage placed Mrs Foster and her child
therein and drove them rapidly to the
point where the train had stopped.
All were delighted with the reception and
entertainment they had received at the
hands of the Richmond people, and ex-
pressed a desire that an opportunity might
arise in the future for returning in some
measure the hospitality enjoyed.
The final rehearsal for the mammoth con-
cert, which the Moody choir Is planning for
Friday night of this week, will be held in
the First Congregational Church at 7:SO
