Dead. --Major J. T. Rosser, Chief of Indian Affairs of the Confederate States, died on the 20th instant at Oak Hill, the residence of his brother, Rev. Leonidas Rosser. The deceased was formerly Lieutenant-Governor and afterwards Governor of the Territory of Minnesota, and came South when the war commenced. He was elected Major of the Tenth Virginia cavalry, for which command he had raised a company, and was in many engagements with that regiment, in which he behaved himself with great gallantry. He was a brave man, and thoroughly and fearlessly devoted himself to the good of his country in whatever position he was called to fill.
