RBXATOR DOVGtAB' LAST HOPBI. Chicajf* in Jli

The Chicago Tribune of Tuesday gives the following account of Senator Douglas' illness and death, and of the general and profound sorrow with which the intelligence was received in that city:

It was not until some ten days since that Senator Douglas' illness assumed an alarming type. Hia primary attack was acute rheumatism, which rapidly assumed a typhoid character, and continued from the first very unyielding. After some ten or twelve days, his malady was complicated by an ulceratcd sore throat, which soon yielded. Torpor of the liver and constipation of the bowels ensued, soon followed by a jaundiced condition, sccompanied by poisoning of the blood, which prostrated his nervous system still more.

A wandering and delirous state accompanied bis illness more or less from its inception to its fatal close. At such times as he was rational last week, he seemed aware of the grave fears entertained in his behalf, and on one occasion said to those about him that he knew his constitution so much better than they did, he felt confident he should recover from the attack. Doubtless his will and courage, joined to his great physical powers, had much to do with his so long continuing to resist a malady before which feebler men would have rapidly succumbed.

In his last days he gave those who stood near to minister to his wants, the most I convincing assurances of the depth and earnestness of the lively love of country that filled his heart. In his waking hours, as well as in those moments when the violence of his disease unseated liis great intellect, he was busy with national events, and the conflict that is now upon us. It was his last wish that the work which will regenerate the country while rescuing it from his enemies, should go rapidly on.— To one, in a wandering moment, he said, "I station you at the Relay House. Move

said, "Telegraph to the President, aud let the column move on!" As so throughout the progress of the disease, which struck him down, he was thinking of his country and her peril.

At Washington, in his imaginings, and in the command for which nature had fitted him, and which would have been bestowed had lie lived, ho seemed to direct events and dictate victory. And when the lucid intervals came, lie waa, if not so omphalic, not less sincere. The salvation of the Republic was uppermost in his thoughts by day and by night, llis own condition, the imminent peril of bis death, his complicated affairs gave iiim no concern. Almost his last coherent words were an ardent wish for the honor and (prosperity of the Republic by the defeat land dispersion of her enemies.

Throughout Saturday it was feared he could not survive many hours. As night fall drew near, without any positive change having taken place in his disease, he yet seemed easier, and so passed the night.— lie had only brief intervals of consciousness after this, but lay in a quiet state, gradually but surely sinking. Al times he briefly rallied, but it was not to a clcar conception of what was transpiring about I him. On one occasiou, indeed, ii was cvi-

Chamber. One of his physicians—Dr. Hay—was administering a blister. What are you doing?" asked the patient "stop, there are twenty against me. the measure is defeated."

At an early hour yesterday morning, he had an interval'of rallying, was rational, conversed briefly with those about him, and*then sank gently and quietly until ten minutes past 9 A. 31., when he breathed bis last quietly, and without a struggle.

His devoted and loving wife remained with him to (he last moment. Madison Cutts, his brother-in-law, Miss Young of I the Trcmout House, B. G. Caulficld, and

Dr. Hay, were also present. Such has been the anxiety .with which news from this sick room had been looked for by the public, that throughout Sunday, almost hourly, bulletins were posted iu the office of the Treniont House. The earliest bulletin of yesterday reported, -Judge Douglas is dying." A. little later, and the intelligence „spread, Judga Douglas is DEAD."

The mournful news spread rapidly through the city, extras and bulletins from the newspaper offices were eagerly sought. The Court House bell was tolled for one hour. Never did a great city put on more rapidly and thoroughly the symbols of

character deserve especial notice, which our limits deny. None to us, however, were more touching than where, passing from more pretentious streets, and manifestations among the wealthier citizens, the eye noted the humble token of real and unaffected grief fluttering upon the lowly homes and places of business of the poorer classes of our Irish population in sectiyas of the city exclusively occupied by them. These made the loss a personal one and took the grief home to their hearts in a manner chcracteristic of the Irish heart. The many laborers at work upon the Tremont House improvement, to a man, asked to be released from their day's work, one stout hod carrier protesting with a broken voice that he could not work the day, for Douglas is dead."

General Sickles, six weeks ago,

was authorized to raise a brigade of 5.000 tten. He has already had over 39,000 offered.

THE MARTTR JJHBKSON:—Without waiting for a call from the press, the contributions for the family of Jackson, the first martyr in defense of the Confederate flag, began to pour in. In nearly every city in tho Confederacy some move is being taken to show an appreciation of the gallant man who, in the face of certain death, tilled the the enemy who dared to desecrate his country's flag. Tho deed should live in history, beside the many acts of heroism recorded in the past, and some fitting tes timonial should be made to show how our countrymen appreciate valor in the'nation al cause. To this end it is proposed "that contributions of small amounts, say five or ten cents, be made, that all may have a chauce of giving their mite, though course the amount is .optional. We would suggest that a box be placed in the postoffice, under charge of a proper committee, for this purpose, and the amount be sent to the general fund.—Montgomery Advertiser.

NEW AY HI:AT.—We have before' us a sample of a most beautiful parcel of eighty bushels of new white wheat, received here this day, by Messrs. Warren, Lewis & Co., from the farm of Judge R. A. Allen, of this county. This wheat is now beiug converted into extra family flour, at the Granite Mills.

ALBERT PIKE AND THE INDIANS.—A letter frotn Little Rock, Arkansas, says:— "Captain Albert Piko lias been commissioned by the Southern Confederacy to raise and equip a regiment of Indians for instant service. The Captain is .in idol with the Indians on our border. He Iras secured to them so many comforts, and they are so fond of him, that he has often been urged by them to become their chief, and he can readily procure a command of five thousand of them if necessary. He goes at once to the Nation."

THE SOUTHERN CAPITAL.—Previous to the adjournment of the Montgomery Congress, a committee was appointed to arrange for public buildings for the use of the government in Richmond, and the sum of $40,000 was appropriated to meet expenses.

A BLACK CREW UNDER A BLACK FLAG. —The Mobile Mercury of the 23d ult. soys:

We learned yesterday from good authority, that an experienced Southern navigator, of general popularity, aud with means amply sufficient to carry out his projects, had completed the purchase of a crack vessel, now in our harbor, which he intends to man with a crew of his own negroes and cruise about under a letter of marque.

Notwithstanding the vaunted readiness of Southern men to sacrifice everything for the cause of secessiouism, it turns out that the Montgomery financiers cannot get their fifteen million loan completed. Those who have got money have no faith, and those who have faith have got no money. The fact, it must be owned, is not a very encouraging one, for it indicates that seces-1 tion of'their fellow-citizens besid sionisni lias taken but little hold among

this view, Mr. Jefferson Davis' Secretary of the Treasury emits a loan of fifty millions before tho first one is taken up. This is playing at the game of brag with rather an open hand. There may be difficulty in discovering the exact numerical force of an enemy, but Government loans are operations that cannot be easily kept disguised. If the hundred thousand soldiers which the Southern Confederacy is said to have put into the field have no better basis than its loans, we may safely conclude that a large was awarded the snuff-box of proportion of them will turn out mere men in buckram.

It is believed that after the session has btfirt. all business may be transacted in two days only three bills will be required, vii: aa Army Bill, a Navy Bill and a Loan and if the project of disposing of the whole in secret session is adopted" as most probably it will be, the members need not be detained here longer than the time specified.—N. Y. Tribune.

Inasmuch as the members of Congress are paid by the year, whether they are in session or tot, it is quite likely they will hurry up matters, as a residence in Washington in' mid-summer is not desirable. They had rather be at home attending to their private affairs. We are opposed to the idea, however, of imitating the Secessionists by secret sessions. Whatever is eaid.or done, let it be opeu and to the face of day, as becomes our democratic form of government.

Mr. Douglas was married April 7, 184G, to Miss Martha D. Martin, of Rockingham county, N C., by whom he had three children, two of whom are living. She died Jan. 10, 1853. He was again married Nov. 20,1856, to Miss Adele Cutts, daughter of James Madison Cutts, Esq., second comptroller of the Treasury by whom he had a daughter, who died about a year and half ago:

4@"*Elscwhere will be found an interesting account of the late action at Acquia Creek. The following description of the place will not be uninteresting: "Acquia Creek, the location of the battery that has been attacked by the United States ships, is a small river in Stafford county, Virginia, flowing into the Potomac, fifty-five miles below Washington. The river is navigable for a short distance by small craft, and is connected with AVash-

ington by a steamboat line, and with Rich- [midons to take active service in the disunmond by tho Richmond, Fredericksburg anu Potomac Railroad, seventy-five miles long."

AA ILL NOT SHELL OUT!—The Mobile Mercury of the 28th puts forth this suggestive complaint and admonition:

AVe have been in the interior lately, and we heard complaints that men of means, of large plantations stocked with negroes, had failed to contribute by way of loan to the Government, or donation to volunteer fuuds, in some cases, anything, iu others anything like a fair proportion of their means. That is all wrong, and we hope such men will now become impressed of the necessity of contributing to a cause in which is involved their fortunes. They should now contemplate the fact aa it is, that the institution which is the basis of their wealty and prosperity must stand or fall as we conquer or are conquered iu this war. If the solid men of the plantations now stand back when this fact rises up before them and needs to be bravely met, they deserve to lose the accumulation of years of labor and to receive the reprobaes.

She is the great grand daughter of the late Dr. John Warren of Boston, the father of the late Dr. John C. Warren. It is a remarkable circumstances that, this young lady should be connected with the first prominent martyr of tho American Revolution, and with the first commissioned officer slain in the conflict of 1861.

SERGEANT BUTTERWORTM SHOT UNDER HIS OWN ORDERS.—The body of Sergeant Butterworth, shot at Alexandria, has arrived at lioweil, in charge of a committee of the IScw York Fire Department, of which the deceased had been a member four years. He was a native of England, and would have been twenty-seven years of age next August. The Lowell Courier thus reports the circumstances of his

death: The report about tho deceased having been a stutterer is incorrect. The following statement was made Io our reporter by Mr. David Decker, who was, as before stated, in Alexandria when 3Ir. Butterworth was killed. The latter was Sergeant of the Guard, and had just stationed them,

His school, consisting of nearly a hundred most interesting young girls, was in all respects one of the finest we ever saw, and everybody in Brownsville bore the strongest testimony to the eminent talent and worth of Mr. Cooper, both as a teacher and a clergyman. He was evidently the favorite of the whole town, winning the admiration and the friendship of all who knew him.

Yesterday Mr. Cooper called upon us at our office, and we were delighted to see him. He told us that he loft Brownsville the preceding evening. We asked him when he would return, and he said that he should return no more. He could not return with safety. A few weeks ago a secession crowd visited his dwelling house, called him out, and gave him his choice of

The Rev. Mr. Cooper calmly dismissed his school with his blessing and took his departure, though not without opposition, a portion of the Secessionists being verv reluctant to let him go quietly. He was told by some of his friends that, although ten days were nominally allowed him, he would not be permitted to leave even on the next day—that is, yesterday and he is now satisfied that, if he had waited till yesterday, he could not have got away.— ouisville Journal.
