Death of Capt. A. P. Hurt. The sad intelligence reached here this morning of the sudden and entirely unexpected deatli of Capt. A. P. Hurt, yesterday. Our in at Faycttcvi'le, quiries in the matter have dieted the following, which embrace all the partic ulars that have yet reached this city. He was about the hotel where he board ed yesterday morning.conversing cheer fully with his many acquaintances and m apparently excellent health and spirits. At about noon he went to his room, leaving orders to be called at dinner time, and when called he was found dead on his bed. The cause, of death has not yet been received here. Capt. Hurt was a Virginian by birth, was between 65 and 70 years of age, and was a widower, having lost his wife several years ago, who leit no children. He came to North Carolina quite early in life and for many years was a captain of one of the steamboats running between t ayettevme ana tms la -- . . Ill . city, in which capacity he secured an ex cellent reputation, both as a river navi- gfttor and as a kind hearted and noble man. He retired from river life about ten years ago, having acquired a com petency in the business, and nas since been more or less engaged in mercantile pursuits. He was universally respect ed for his many sterling qualities of head and heart, and his loss will be sorelv felt and sincerely mourned by a largo circle of friends and acquain tances.
