The Daily Dispatch: June 15, 1864., [Electronic resource], Death of Lieut Gen. Polk. (search)
nounces the resumption of active hostilities in Northern Georgia brings also the melancholy tidings of the death of Lieut. Gen. Lecuidas Polk. He was struck by a cannon ball and instantly killed. Gen. Polk was a native of Ashe county, North Carolina, and was educated to the military profession, having graduated at West Point. Subsequently, however, he adopted the peaceful calling of the ministry, rose to distinction in the Protestant Episcopal Church, and became Bishop of the Diocese of Louisiana. At the breaking out of the war he relinquished his prelacy, under the solemn conviction that he could be of more service to his country in the field, and has since become distinguished for his ability as an officer and his valor in the presence of the foe. When the rank of Lieutenant General was created by Congress, the title was conferred upon him as one of those who had earned it by gallantry at the head of his command. He narrowly escaped death by the bursting of a gun at the battle

Mr. Conrad replied that while he was not authorized to make any statement to the House, and especially under a threat, he would say that Mr. Memminger had remarked to him in usual conversation, long before the introduction of the resolution, that it was his intention to resign at the close of the present session of Congress. Mr. Foote rejoined that it was understood that Mr. Memminger had very recently made a similar declaration to Senator Orr, of South Carolina, and to the chairman of the Judiciary Committee.

Suppression of newspapers in New Orleans. --The New Orleans Picayune and Le Courrier Flancais of the same city, have been suppressed by the Yankee authorities. The N O are (the Government organ) says: The commanding General of the Department, by a special order has suppressed the New Orleans Picayune and Le Courrier Francais. We believe that this action will receive the cordial approval of every loyalman in Louisiana, who has watched the course of those papers, and is acquainted with their disloyal character. The French Courrier was an out and-out secession sheet, violently abusive towards the Government, and teeming day after day with ridicule and insult toward the cause of the Union and its supporters. since the session of the Constitutional Convention, it has been especially violent and insatting; it even went to the extent of publishing a certain list of members against whom it invoked not only public reprehension but mob violence, because they voted against an p
