Death of an old citizen. --We are pained to learn that Otis Manson, Esq., formerly for forty years a well known resident of Richmond, died on the 9th of April last, at the residence of his son, Dr. O. F. Manson, in Granville county, N. C., at the ripe age of seventy- two years. His remains were brought to this place for interment. Several years since Capt. Manson removed to North Carolina, where his last hours were spent. No man, perhaps, in his sphere, was more useful to the community iCapt. Manson removed to North Carolina, where his last hours were spent. No man, perhaps, in his sphere, was more useful to the community in which he lived. In the war of 1812, he promptly volunteered in Capt. Richardson's corps d'clite for the defence of Richmond, and for a great many years was a useful member of the City Council. For many years he was the only architect in Virginia, and the principal edifices in the city and country were either wholly or partially planned by him. When living here, he was to the mechanic a guide and a friend, and was universally beloved by them. As a parent, he was noble, generous, and unselfis
Interesting and successful surgical operation. --A young soldier named Wm. H. Ricketts, belonging to the 13th Virginia regiment, was wounded at the battle of Gaines's Mill by a Minnie ball passing through and shivering the bone of the upper arm, near the joint, and splitting it into many fragments nearly down to the middle of the arm. He was taken to the Moore Hospital, in this city, and an operation performed, dividing the bone near its middle, and then dissecting it upwards and removing it from its socket at the shoulder. By this means the whole of the remaining arm was left, the operation of amputation at the shoulder avoided, and the patient was left with the perfect use of his fore arm and fingers, and bids fair, in time, to regain the use of the whole arm in a great degree. The operation was performed by Surgeon O. F. Manson, of North Carolina, in charge of the Moore Hospital, and a graduate of the Richmond Medical College.
es from the junction of said road and the Raleigh and Gaston Railroad. The improvements are new, commodious, and excellent. It has two good settlements upon it, with two excellent gardens, orchards of choice fruit, and all the conveniences of an excellent home. At the same time and place I shall sell 12 or 15 valuable slaves-men, women, boys, and girls- being the hands who have been raised on and cultivated the plantation. The location is the best I know for a skillful physician, being in the midst of a wealthy, thriving and intelligent people. I shall also sell at the same time the stock of Mules, Horses, Cows, Hogs, Sheep, the present year's crop of Tobacco, Corn, Oats, Fodder, Shucks, &c. To those desiring an elegant home, in a vicinity secure from the enemy, the present affords an excellent opportunity. Possession given immediately. Passengers leaving Richmond in the morning train can reach this plantation at 3 P. M. the same day. [de 5--4t*] O. F. Manson.
