Miss French died at 10 o'clock yesterday morning at the resi dence of her father, corner Eighth and Market streets.

Her sweet Cbristian character and sunny dis position, united with unusual graces both of mind and person, won for her a wide circle of friends. They all hear with pro found sorrow of her untimely end. The deceased young lady had been an invalid for twelve months or longer and had suffered much pain, but she en tered into rest without a struggle. She is survived by her father , Mr. William R. French, clerk of the Crimi nal : Court, her mother, Mrs. Eliza French, and her only brother, Mr. Rob ert S. French, who is general passenger agent of the Piant system, and who ar rived here Monday to ba present at the bedside of his sister. Mrs. J. Harry Boatwright, of Portsmouth, a warm personal friend of the deceased, was also summoned to the sick bed -The funeral will be onducted at 11 o'clock this morning from St. James' church.
