Di-:th of Mrs. James Southgate. The melancholy intelligence was received here by telegraph of the death of this lady which occurred yesterdaj' morning at 10 o'clock, in Durham. It was re ceived with a sadness proportion ed to the amiable and estimable qualities of the deceased. Lit erally "none knew her but to love her," for to ever flowing cheerfulness and brightness of nature was added a real kindness of heart which found interest in the happiness or the sorrows of others; ever ready to brighten with her presence the pleasures of social intercourse, or to cheer with her assiduous sympathy the griefs of the suileringand afflicted. She was a living sunshine to the one, a messenger of light and hope to the other. To her goodness of heart was added intellectual powers cultivated in a high de gree, making her a companion on equal terms with the most gifted and intellectual ; and to mental culture was added those graceful accomplishments which brighten the domestic circle aird add to tlto pleasures of society. Her life was a busy and useful one. She was a successful educa tioninNorfolk and inseveralplaces in this State ; and very many old puplis in this and other States will mourn the loss of a beloved teacher, a wise counsellor and a warm and trusty friend. Mrs. Southgate, nee D. H. Wynne, was born in .Franklin county, N. C. At tho time of her death she was C2 years of age. In 1858, she married Mr. James Southgate, then of .Norfolk, now a jironiinent citizen of Durham. Mrs. oouthsrate was tne aunt ol Mrs. E. L. Brown, Mrs. Laurence Pulliani and Mr. li.

Au objection was also made to it by Mr Yest because it contained the words "legal representatives," under whicii he said, the benefits of the bill would go largely to the claims agents. The words peisonal representa tives," were suggested by Mr. Evarts as a substitute for "legal representatives,'" and were accepted bv Mr. tst; but the bill went over so as to allow further aiscussion of it.

We venture to ?ay that nut ni: in a thousand who have Uteri in Cherokee county wi:l recognize umler the above name that famous and favorite stopping place on the Valley town road, so well known as Mrs. Walker's. The prospect of reaching that house after a Ion-.', ro-.iph and trying ride up the Nantahal.t river and through lied Marble Gap from Charleston, has whiled away the -edium of the ride or drive; and the longer ride from Franklin has been made to seem shorter, because at its e,id wa th- good cheer, the blazing tires and the c ,m toll able rooms to be found at Mrp. W .'.ker's. No one who ever stopped there : ei- fell short in his expectations. The roups of lawyers that often found ther -elves there on their way to or from Ch rokee court, were more garrulous aiii. good huinoied than any where ese; and they laughed tiway the remernbrancf if the long rough lido in the SLitistym expe riences uf their present Biirrou iings. The fame, and the we!! rilled pro;.' r,f the house, stood a beacon, lit up a the shades of night began to fall as cheerful and hojieful in its suggestions as tiie rays cast ly the l'hteou-e to tbe storm tossed mariner. We do not know the Finch Uro.i , the proprietors, who have taken cha-peof the house; but it is satisfactory to know that it will be under the charge o" Mrs. Walker herself, who will still h ;.d the sceptre after an approved reiera C foity three years.
