Richmond presents to-day a scene of mourning hardly witnessed in this generation. The stores and public build ings are all closed, the bells in all parts of the city are to'liug, and on many doors are pictures and photographs of General Lee draped in crape with evergreen. Citizens stand in groups on principal thoroughfares and talk in subdued tones on the sad event. The ieeling that he ought to be burled here at the State expense is universal, and the Legislature, In making this request of hie family, reiterated public opinion Tbe City Council met this afternoon, at the call of the Mayor. Governor Walker sent the fol lowing message to the General Assembly: "It is with unaffected grief that I announce to you tbe painful intelligence f the death of General Robert E. Lee at Lexington on yester day morning. lie died, as he had lived, a noble example of the sublime principles and teachings of the Christian religion. He goes down to the tomb amid the lamentations of an aff ectionate and sorrowlag people. Of exalted public and private virtue in his life and career, he filled the full measure of our conception of a man. A 6tricken family, a bereaved State and afflicted people bow with reverence and humility before this visitation of Divine providence. It Is fitting that you, the representatives of the people, should take such appropriate action as the melancholy occasion suggests, and I believe you would. But give expression to the univer sal desire of tbe people, should you solicit the interment of tbe remains npon the grounds owned by the State at Hollywood Cemetery, where hereafter they may raise a monumental shaft, commemorative alike of their sincere and lasting affection for the man and their profound appreciation of his greatness and goodness." After the reading of Governor Walker's mes sage a joint resolution unanimously passed, ex pressive of tbe deep sorrow of both Houses at the sad event, and requesting that the body be turned over to the State for Interment at Holly wood Cemetery, near this city. A joint com mittee, consisting of five members of the House and three of the Senate, and their presiding olllcers, was appointed to go to Lexington and escort tie remains here if tbe request I granted.

FROM NEW ENGLAND. Obituary. Lowell, Mass., Oct. 13. Dr. Jesse Fox, father of Gustavus Fox, ex-Assistant Secretary of the Navy, died at his residence in this city last evening, at the age of eighty-four. "the elections? The Result In the Different State. The returns from the States which held elec tions on Tuesday are not yet sufficiently com plete to give the definite result. In Pennsylvania, the delegation, from pre sent appearances, will stand 14 Republi cans to 10 Democrats, but there will proba bly be several changes. John H. Olllver (Rep.) is probably elected in the Sixth district, and L. D. Shoemaker (Rep.) in the Twelfth; these two Republican gains being compensated for by the election of Henry D. Foster (Dem.) in the Twenty-first district, and William McClelland (Dem.) in the Twenty-fourth. The Sixteenth district (Cessna's), however, is still in some doubt. In Ohio, General Schenck is defeated by Lewis D. Campbell, in tbe Third district, and the Republicans have also probably lost the Fourth and Slxteedth districts. But they gain tbe First and Ninth, and the net loss is one member only, the new delegation standing 13 to 6. The Republican State ticket is undoubt edly elected. In Indiana, the vote is very close, but Repub lican by a small majority. The Fourth and Se venth districts are probably lost to the Reput llcans, making the new delegation stand 5 Re publicans to 0 Democrats. In Iowa the Republican majority will be not less than 38,000, and may probably reach 40,000, ail the Congressmen being elected by from 5000 to 8000 majority. In Nebraska the entire Republican ticket is elected by from 3000 to 3000. TOURS. The Temporary Capital of France ' Officially, Tours may now be called the capital of France. The Provisional Government is represented by M. Cremieux, M. Glals Blzoln, and M. Fourlchon; and also by tbe personnel of the MI nlster of the Interior and the Minister of War. The Prefecture, the Palace of Justice, and the Archeveche are all given np to the several departments of the State. The presence of sentries at the doors of these buildings denote the height of ofliclal promotion to which the war has suddenly lifted a pretty, and apetty.pro vinclal town. Archbishop Gulbert hasgiveu up the greater part of his palace to the service ot the State; and, as the oilicia) residence of M. Cre mieux, Minister of Justice and Keeper of the Seals, the stately old house may be accounted the political centre of France. A correspondent of an English paper says that the palace ia one of those buildings which sprang up throughout France in the days of Louis (juatorze. Long in sweep of front, irregular in outline, flanked with round towers, surmounted by the steep, lofty roof of days that knew not Haussmann, and surrounded by stately trees, the Arche veche points to a time before the Revolu tion when the prelates of France were verita ble princes. The entrance hall, the stairs and the reception rooms are all of noble proportions. A few portraits of bishops, a bust of the Pope, and such scanty furniture as may be needed by tbe attendants and the visitors, still make the lofty chambers look habitable; but otherwise they have been stripped bare, and they have that air of desolation which seems in separable from a public otlice. Monseigneur Gulbert's palace is separated from the cathedral of Tours orfly by tbe breadth of the streets, and throughout the day Its side chapels or its grand choir and nave are the scene of special worship. Even in the brief intervals of duty, however, M. .Cremieux can hardly be expected to join the suppliant throng; for, just as the Archbishop of Tours is one of the chief prelates of France, so the Minister of Justice is one of her most illustrious Hebrews; and pleasing comments have been made on the fact that a Jewish statesman should thus be the guide of a Christian bishop. Those Englishmen who are at once Catholics and sym pathizers with France may be comforted by the fact that the archbishop has issued a form of fervent prayer for victory, In which the armies of France are placed under the special guar dianship of tbe Virgin and St. Martin of Tours. The recital of the prayers closes the dally exer cises at tbe tomb of St. Martin, and it Is accom panied by an indulgence of forty days. "TrOUXD DEAD. Blrance Death In Nt. Leula A Young Phyal. eiuo Polaooa Itluiarll with fruaalo Acid. The Missouri Democrat of the 11th instant eays: The Coroner was yesterday called upon to hold an Inquest at the Olive Street Hotel on the body of a voung physician, Dr. Cochrane, who, either through carelessness or with intent to commit suicide, took an overdose of prusslc acid, from tbe effects of which he died. The deceased was about twenty-eight years of age, and is represented as having been a talented, steady, and excellent man. His father, now dead, was formerly a leading lawver at the New York bar. His widowed mother, an elderly ludy, lives in Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, a small town about twenty-flve. miles below Par kersburg. Cochrane about one mouth ago took charge of a young man, Charles Andrews, tra velling for his health, and went with him to Denver City, Colorado. Remaining there about thiee weeks, the pair returned to this city, and stopped at the Olive Street Hotel, whom the fntlier and Umilv f the J'u:i in m Aii-lrc The deceased complained crcatly of neural- f;la on Wednesday last, but on Saturday seemed n perfect health and rplrlts. He went to the fair with the Andrews family, and after return ing retired to his room. He was never seen again alive. On Sunday evening the proprietor of the hotel, Mr. D. C. fMegrlst, Inquired of the book-keeper where Cochrane was, and remap,ic l that he bad not seen him about for a day or two. me DooK-aeeper replied mat me doctor s door was locked, and he thought he must be in his room. Mr. Slegrlst then ascended the stairs and burst open the door. The doctor was found lying on the floor near an open window, and quite dead. On the mantel-shelf was found a bottle containing the prusslc acid. The Coroner was notilied, and at 9 o'clock yesterday morning held an inquest on the remains. Tbe testimony of a number of witnesses was heard. Thomas Irwin testified I am clerk atLeltch's drug store: the deceased came in about the 30th of September and asked for a prescription blank, which he filled up; I then put up the prescrip tion; he came in again on the 4th ot October, and I filled for him a prescription of two drachms of diluted prusslc acid and two ounces of water; half a teacpoonful of tbe mixture is a dose, and three times that quantity will kill; the deceased was a physician, and knew what the prescription contained; the first one he brought was for morphine in tie form of a salve; he also got six be'lladonna pills. Tbe jury being unable to determine whether the deceased had poisoned himself accidentally or committed suicide, returned a verdict that he died from an overdose of prussic acid. A FORCED MARCH. IIow Ten Thousand Men Escaped. A Bouillon letter says: A French olicer who is staying here on ac count of the very severe vmnnds he received at the battle of Sedan, has just sent for me to go over and see him where he is lodging, lie has shown me a letter from his brother, an artillery officer whoee regiment formed one of the unfor tunate army under MacMahon that surrendered on the 2d of this month. The letter Is dated from Paris on Wednesday last, the 14th, and the writer informs his brother that ten thousand men, with thirty pieces of cannon from the debris of MacMahon's corps, have reached the capital in safety. They took sleven days to get over about a hundred and fifty American miles. They marched in the greatest confusion, and swarmed over the country in small parties of two and three hundred each. But they held steadily In view the only object of their march, which was to reach Paris by any means and by every means, but to get there somehow, now they were fed on the road seems to have been a miracle. They were not commanded, for each man worked for himself. They were composed of all regiments and all arms ; and were all mixed together In the most extraordinary manner. At Soissons so the letter says, but I think it must be a mistake, for that place was in the hands of the Prussians on the 5th of this month they found thirty thou sand rations of bread and meat. Each man took three days' rations, and off they started again. They had several detours to make in order to avoid the enemy; but they managed, excepting the weak and sickly exceptions, to reach their destination, and to reach It all about the same time. Here and there on the road they were joined by men who had left different army corps after various battles, so that their num bers increased ' rather than diminished on the line of the march. One artillery, four infantry, and two cavalry generals, whose names, I am sorry to say, are not mentioned, marched with them and reached Paris safely. The whole force got to their destination within twenty-four hours of each other. The writer whose letter seems to have been one of tbe last sent out of the capital before Its .gates were closed regards with no small triumph this feat of so many individuals, which, as he says truly enongh, could not have been accomplished by any other soldiers in the world. N. Y. MONEY MARKET YESTERDAY. From the If. Y. Herald. "The interest manifested in the revived speculation in Wall street was attested by no better sisn than the pre sence of so great a throng? at tbe Htock Kichanpe to day, despite the dreary and dismal state of the weather. The Loop Room waa foKgy with the vapor from tbe smokins garments of the crowd; the tiled lloor was a marsh of muddy water; dripping umbrellas constantly contributed to tbe 'demnition moist, unpleasant' state of affairs. Bat above all rani; the noise and din of business. OKI brokers and young brokers shook bands and congratulated eaoh other on the resumption of activity and the prospect of an unlimited supply of 'orders.' "Inasmuch as the course of events hinged to a con siderable extent upon the inlluenoes affecting the gold market , it is only proper to begin the narrative of the day with the story of that department. The great obstinaoy which gold baa shown in the interim since our civil war is due in no little degree to the constitutional bullishness of those who will never believe in the stability of our Government. Politics has a word describing this class of people; its synonym In tbe Gold Room is 'bull.' Nearly all tbe commercial failures since the war bave been due to the fact that the bankrupts could not and wou'd not see the inevitable consequences of the steady recovery of the country from tbe proHtration of the war and of the enterprise and prosperity begotten of the reign of peace. The parties who bave thus interrupted the natural progress of the financial situation and en deavoied to throw obstacles in the maroh to the resump tion of specie payments have caUed out an equally pow erful class of speculators, whose combat in the arena of the Gold Koom waa to-day unnsually interesting It is speculation iu gold which keeps it from its real level. There are, of course, legitimate transactions con nected with the sale of gold for delivery ; but it is the sale without a correspond ing mercantile transaction that makes gold unnecessarily scarce. Tbe 'bulls' in gold created a strong diversion this afternoon by suddenly cir culating a rumor that they intended to make a 'squeeze' to morrow, and the 'bears' ware, so frightened that some bought in their gold. risiug the price up to 114, while others, braving the threat, engaged their gold for to morow at rates ranging from I-ltj to a 'Sl. It is, of course, impossible at this time to say what may be done; but, in view of tbe fact that Secretary Bout well will probably order the prepayment, without rebate, as early as the 15th instant, of the November ooin interest on the pnblio debt, tbe movement may be simply for the purpose of enabling the 'bulls' to unload before the Government gold comes on the street and breaks up the stringency In tbe gold loan market. At this season of the year, with ootton reoeipts increasing from week to week and with constantly increasiug ex ports of produce of all kinds it is against all logio that gold should advance. It tbe 'bears' are made to pay for their indulgeno in temptation to speculate against the decline tbe publio will thank the 'bulls.' But that tbe triumph of the latter will be shortlived is obvious. The punhe will toss ace both aides of tbe speculative tight punibhed." Nabh t Ladner, KroKars, report this morning Gold quotations as follows: 10-00 A. M mill-EaA.
