To render it uniform in its character be bas gone to great ex- pense in enlarging to the imperial size the daguerreo- types of the public men taken during his former visit or at an anterior period. Adding to these, as he will Row have an opportunity of doing by his continuous opera- tions in Waabington, all the political, diplomatic and social celebritios who may be drawn there, either by business or pleasure, bis collection promises to become the most important and precious, in a national point of view, that has ever been formed in any country, ‘There is one featuro in these imperial photographs of ‘Mir.

BERTCH OF WIS LIFE—IMPRESSIVE FUNERAL CERE- MONIES AT THE LAFAYETTE PLACK CHURCH. The death of Rey. Dr. John Knox, who for more than “forty years has been connected as a minister with the ‘Collegiate Reformed Dutch church of this city, has created & profound impression among the communicants of that -church, by whom he was regarded with esteem and af- fection. The extent of this feeling was manifested in a marked maaner, by the attendance at his funeral, which ‘took place yesterday from the church in Lafayette place. Dr. Knox was, next to Dr. Spring, the oldest settled pastor in this cily, and commenced his ministra- tion ehortly before Dr. Berrian became located @t Trinity church. He was born near Gettysburg, dn Adams county, Penasylvania, and graduated at ‘Dickenson College, Carliso, Pa., in 1811. During the samo ear he entered the Theological Seminary of the Associate ‘Reformed Church, then under the Presidency of Rev. Dr. John M. Mason, and was licensed to proach in 1815. In -July, 1816, he was installed as one of the pastors of the Collegiate ‘Dutch Reformed church of this city, and at- tex Ged to the duties of that position up to the time of his oa loath. At the formation of the American Tract Society, in 11826, Dr. Kuox was chosen a mombor of its publiating committee, and since the death of Dr. Milnor he has been es chairman. At the time of his death be was chairman of the Board of Trustees of Columbia College, and in ad- dition to the arduous duties of bis own church was an ac- tive member of moat of the prominent religious and bene- nt societies of the day. be Knox was married carly in life to the daughter of Rev. Dr. Mason, his theological preceptor. They reared large family; one of the sons is now a member of the bar ‘of New York, and another isa pastor at Germantown, Penn. Dr. Knox was, up to tho time he received the accident which eventually caused bis death, hale aud hearty man, Zithough be had attained theripe ageof68 On Tussdny of last week he returned home, after having devoted the day to his pastoral duties, and passing into the spiazza at the back of his house, be mado a misstop and fol! headlong to the area below—a distance of some ten ‘feet.

DEATH OF DR. ANSON JOWH8, EX-PRESIDENT OF TEXAS. Dr. Anson Jones was « native of the city of Philadelphia, where he was educated. He adopted the medical profes- sion as his pursuit, and entered the University of Pennsyl- vania, where he graduated with honor amd distinction. He subsequently emigrated to Texas, when it wae regard- ed as ove of the States forming the Mexican republic, under & recognized constitution, which the citizems of Texas were sworn to support. When, however, the con- stitution was overthrown and a dictatorship established on its ruins—while an armed force was gent into Texas to enforce obedience from ita citizens to its tyrannical decrees, which demanded that all private arms should be delivered up, and taxes paid without Tepresentation—-revolution and resistance §=was. determined on by the American colonist. Dr. Jones wok an active and prominent part, with Lamar, Wharton, Grayson, Austin, Rusk and others, in proclaiming the independence of Texas and fighting for its establishment. He joined the forces under Gene- ral Houston, and was attached to General Lamar’s cavalry force, both as an offloor and as @ éur- geon. He was actively employed in the memorable battle of San Jacinto, fought in April, 1896, when Santa Apna was defeated and made prisoner. Dr. Jones was mounted, and charged, with Lamar’s force, the breast- works of the enemy, who were thrown into confusion, while the infantry followed up the advantage and soon put bim to flight. ‘The horse puraued the enemy till after dark, the watchword being ‘Remember the Alamo.’ Santa Anna was not captured until the noxt ¢@ay, when he was found secreted in aswamp by some ‘Texas rangers and carried into camp. i was well, however, that they did not know who he was ‘until be was carried into camp, or his life would have been summarily taken by his captors, who remembered the maseacre of Col. Fanning, and the sacrifice of life in the Alamo. It required all the influence General Houston could exercise to save him. General Lamar was in favor of trying him by a court martial and shooting him. Houston, however, overruled matters, and caused Santa Anna ultimately to be seat back to Mexico, under pledges that he never redeemed. Dr. Jones, in returning towards the camp after night, from the pursuit over the battle ground, the moon having in the mean time risen, found a wounded Mexican soldier seated on the ground and piteously begging for as- sustance. The doctor was a man of generous and humane feelings. He divmounted and assisted the poor fellow to mount horse behind the saddle, and then got up himsolf, drawing the Mexican’s «rms around him, ao that he coule hold on uptil they reached the camp. On the way the Mexi- can w get a few dollara from his pocket, which he offered to Jonos, which he refused to take, and begged tho wounded man to keep them for future use. reaching the camp the Doctor bad him quietly taken from the horse, and ceeded to drevs his wounde and to make him as = able as he could. The Mexican recovered, and was filled With the warmest feelings of gratitude towards hia bene- factor, The Doctor afterwards became prominent as a civilian, and rose to be Secretary of State of independent ‘Texas; and, at a time when Texas was endeavoring to en- ter the family of nations, on the most favorable terms. his diplomatic and other State papers exhibited marked ability, ana were written in a style and with a force which would have reflected credit on # similar office in much older States. His able discharge of the responsible duties won for him the applause and admiration of people beth in and out of Texas. He was subse- quently elected President of the republic by a large popular vote of the le. This office he filled with great credit to himself and use- fuiness to the State. He was an advocate for annex- ation to the United States, aud gave the weight of his influence in that direction.’ He subsequently retired to his farm, and ceased, to a great extent, to take an active part iy public affairs. He was a tan remarkable for bis Uunostentatious and unobtrusive, quiet deportment; yet he was of pleasing addreas and atiractive social habits. The sudden and unlooked for termination of his life, in mature manhood, will po doubt be deeply deplored by = large circie of friends both in Texas and in the United Sales. Mr. Jony Gnerx, a comedian of high repute, died at Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 28. Mr. Groen was one of the old- est actors in the Union, and was, we believe, a Phila- detphian by birth. He was celebrated in Irish charactors, and likewise in the orusty fathers and rich uncles in the old school of comedies. In Philadelphia, Alvany, New Orleans and other cities, he was a prime favorite. Mr. Greea played in New York some years since, aud was quite popular. Of eyo Green has been the suc- cessful manager of the Nashville and Memphis theatres. Mr. F. M. Kxnt, comedian, native of Philadelphis, died in this city a few days ago, aged 28. Te made his dévms at the Arch. under Mr. Burton’s management, and soon after went to California, where, as actor and he wag very popular. He was & member of Laure Keoue’s company last season. Police Intelligence. OTHELLO’S OCCUPATION’S GONE. Justice Connolly issued an order yesterday morning to the policemen attached to the Lower Police Court at the ‘Tombs, to keep a continual watch upon the movements of the numerous skinuers and amall fry lawyers who, for years, bave infested the Halls of Justice with their loath- some presence, and not to allow them within the walls of the court room. Such an order has long been necded, and we hope the good movement will go forward until “skinning” shall become obsolete. No doubt Justice Connolly's ageociates will co operate with him inthe good work alvendy Degen. ‘This rule should be rigidly en- forced, and on no account should it be d from uptil the ‘‘Augean stable”’ shall be thoroughly cleansed. The effect produced yesterday by the oxclusion of the skinners was refreshing.

In Read- ing there was a very active movement, and prices were well sustained. Speculators for a rise took hold with a great deal of spirit, and the sales sam up largely. The market was not at all regular. The day’s business was equal to the most speculative times, and it looks as though everybody had plenty ef money and did not know what to do with it. At the second board a change came upon the fair scene of the morning. Lower prices ruled, and but an ordinary amount of transactions are reported.
