Johnson, Citizen, Jurist, Planter and Christian Patriot is Doad. Marion, December 17.-Hou. Wm. D. Johnson died at his homo in this town last night at 10 o'clock. Tho end of Ins long, useful and honorable Ufo was peaceful and .pa?nloss. Tho mcmbets of his family wero all in nttondaueo at his death bed, being \ preparod to expect.tho sad event in view of tho advanced age of tho venerable sufforer and of tho grave symptoms his sickness had developed during tho last few days. Chanoollor Johnson was in his 84th year, haviug beeb born in North Carolina, Septombor 9, 1818. Ile oamo of fine old Scotch stock, his ancestors on tho matornal side belonging to tho prominent Dal rymple family. They followed tho fortunos of tho Stuarts, and when tho hopes of tho "boolite prince" ''were blasted at Cullodon some of thom joined thc Scottish contingent of cxilcB that sought refuge along tho banks of the Cape Fear. Mr. Johnson was educated at Davidson Collego and at Princeton, and after his graduation located at Bcnnettsvillo. Ho studied law and was admitted to tho bar, and was thoroughly equipped for his life work. His *high character and emi nent ability soon found appreciative recognition at thc hands of discern ing electors, by whom ho was sent to the convention that adopted tho ordi nance of secession, and afterwards chosen Stato Senator from Marlboro District. When his senatorial term expired the Legislature showed its appreciation of his fogal talents and bis moral reotitude ami integrity by elevating.him to the chancery bench, which ho occupied with credit and over increasing respect until the jurisdiction was abolished in 18G9. About that time Mr. Johnson re moved to Marion and formed a law partneship with Major J; M. John son, Mr. J. W. Johnson, a son-in-law of tho chancellor, being afterwards admitted ns a partner. This firm did an active and extensive business in Marion and thc adjoining counties, and was kept up until a year or more ago when tho weight ot' years and increasing bodily infirmity compelled thc senior member to withdraw from tho practice. In tho meantime the chancellor exhibited the versatility of his strong genius by carrying on nuccessfully one of the largest agri cultural enterprises in this section of tho ?tate. His well known farm at Denoho was a model of scientific agriculture conducted on a largo scale. Ho was besides a learned authority rip pomology and horticul ture, ami '.?is practical min?! compre hended every detail of barnyard and stock farm. A striking proof of the chancellor's personal integrity, p" well as his business capp- :ty, is tho fact that for more than 30 years past through all tho depression, uncertainty and vicissitude of that period ho managed tho affairs of ;; large trust estate in volving many thousan 's of dollars so skillfully and fait'l .nliy as to avoid any depiction of corpus ?'??i-, interest j and he was but recontly discharged from th" trust with the commenda tion of tho court. Chancellor Johnson mari ?ed in 1851 Miss Sarah Elizabeth McCall, of Darlington District, who preceded him to thc grave nearly 25 years ago. Tho surviving children aro Messrs. N. M. Johnson and D. Dalrymple Johnson, and Mrs. J. W. Johnson, of Marion, Mrs. S. A. Woods, of Dar lington, and Mrs. W. McG. Huck, of Mullins. Chancellor Johnson was best known, perhaps, as the last of tho chancellors, but ho also enjoyed tho distinction of being one of the few survivors of tho convention which mot in Columbia, Deeembor 17th, 1800--ll yoars ago-Mmd after ad journment to Charleston adopted the ordinance of secession on the 20th of December. Tinco of* tho members of that convention have died this year, and but scvon remain. .----^?>- i. .. ...

Jackson, Miss., December 15.-Tho Button oil mills in Mississippi havo advanced tho prico of seed from $11*"and $12 por ton to $13 and $14 por ton, 'and at some places $15 per ton is being paid.
