Petersburg Index. : A telegram brought to ns last night the sad announcement of the1" h of John R. Thompson, Vrn throughout the whole South as ' one of the most genial gentlemen and ac complished scholars ever born in Vir ginia. The event was not altogether unexpected to the many friends who loved him for his worth and sweet ness of disposition, and; who, for many months past, had seen the slow,' yet, sure advances which the subtle disease he suffered under,1 -wa mak ing upon a constitution always frail and sensitive. Mr. Thompson was born in Richmond, graduated with honor at the University of Virginia, and after spending several years in Europe, where he made fast friends of fluchmen as Thackeray, Tennyson and Browning, he finally settled in Rich mond, where he assumed the editorial chair of the Southern Literarg Mot ienger, then one of the first . maga zines in America.' As a writer it is scarcely too much to Bay that in grace of style and purity of diction." he had no superior among .American writers, and it is pleasing for those who loved and admired him to remember, as it is no less honorable to his own fame, that this purity of style was fitly matched by an exquisite purity of thought ' - ; s - Of his place in the world of letters we shall have, a word to say hereaf ter: those who enjoyed the privilege of his friendship will understand why' we content ourselves with this sim ple announcement '' " ' 1 ' JTasaca Brsski, Hon. James Brooks died Tuesday evening at half -past ; eight o'clock. I lie was conscious to the last.- lie, in connection with bis brother. Erastus Brooks, founded Ijhe New York JSe prest 'which' has always1 advocated conservative principles and bas been a staunch friend of the South. That he enjoved the confidence and. respect of his constituents; is indicated by the fact that he has been repeatedly elected by them to Congress. When his district was consolidated with that of the Hon. S. S. Cox, the latter, who could easily have been elected,' de tuned to contest the district with Mr. Brooks, and ran for Congressman -at- Large. In" this 'we " Have " additional evidence of the devoted attachment o Mr. Brooks of such honorable men as "Sunset Cox. The only cloud upon his fair fame was his connection with the late Credit Mobilier scandal. We undersUnd that Dr. William Selden, of this city, who was called in to see Mr. Brooks during his sojourn here, pronounced his disease cancer of the liver. If this is a fact it is like ly that the fatal nature of his disease, which has -not -hitherto-transpired, was concealed from I.the ) patient Norfolk Journal The f ollowin g decisions . were ren dered Monday last I.
