Death of a venerable Patriot.

--Parker Craig, a distinguished citizen of Kentucky, whose entire property had been confiscated or destroyed by the Federal, died at Knoxville, Tenn., last week. In his last moments he said to his friends:

‘"If Kentucky shall ever come out and join the Confederacy, then place my body by the side of my old, valued friend, Henry Clay. But if it does not, let me remain a refuges in the land of Tennessee."’
