FRUITS and berries at this season of the year
are not only precious luxuries, but great promo
tors Of health. They act upon the liver. promo
ting that secretion naturally which many are in
the habit of obtaining only by the means of arti-
fetal medicines They thus avert many disease
resulting from a torpid condition of the liver.
Another way i'm which they act beneticially is in
the mechanical effect their little seeds produce in
passing through the bowels. very mnch the same
as the watering Of an irritated eyeball when any
hard substance touches that delicate organ, and
this water, by dissolving the hardened contents of
constipated bowels, keep them in healthier state
than any pull or purgatIve invented by the apOth-
ecary. There can he no doubt that in the summer
and fall seasons people who live mainly ON fruits
and berries and coarse bread can almost ensure
exemption from sickness, while those who eat
heartily of solid meats and vegetables two OF three
times day are liable to all the diseases that flesh
is heir to.

DEATHS DoINGs.

Yesterday that fine lawyer and excel
lent man, Thomas R. Smith, was laid in
his grave. Yesterday, at Raleigh, Rob
ert Black, one of our old merchants and
one of the justest men that ever lived,
died. THIS morning at five o'clock, on
Mosby street, John Bullock, one Of
the ornaments Of the Memphis bar,
closed his career. 1t is very sad,
but it is very instructive, to reflect
on the uncertainty Of life. These
were men in the prime of life,
and all, as this world goes, were sue
cessful. Thomas Il. Smith was eminent
bots as lawyer and judge, while in pri-
vate lie he was model worthy the uni.
tation of any man. Through labor ne
reached the very pinnacle of his probes
sion, and when he stood amid the
fruits of his long toll, was stricken down.
Robert Black was merchant who had
succeeded by economy aud attention to
the details of business, in acquiring
fortune In his intercourse he was I'M
obtrusive and reticent, but always
pleasant. The writer of this arti-
Gle has known him more than TWEEN
ty years, and never saw him out
of humor, or thrown off his guard. He
was, in every sense, a correct man. For
the past two years he has been an inva-
lid, without hope of recovery and wait
ing only for the hour that should termi-
nate his sufferings. None could know
what that long night Of the death watch
was but the spirit that lowered in the
darkness. John Bullock was a man OF
very considerable intellectual powers,
and stood in the front rank Of his profess
sion. To a community that knew him so
ong and we'll as this did, it is needless
for us to speak Of his traits Of character
At this moment we have not the requi-
site information to enable us to make a
summary of his history. Other pens
win write of him, for he was a man Of
mark, and one whose passing away leaves
more than ripple on the surface Of
society. These three men, all known to
each other, have gone to eternity almost
ia company.

ILLINOIS.


SPRINGFIELD, March 9.-The Governor
sent memorial 70 the Legislature from
Baron Won Glaha, whose celebrated di.
vorce case 10 Chicago is not yet forgot
ten. The Baron wants a reform in the
chancery proceedings, and especially in
the taxing Of costs by masters in chan
Gerry, fees Of shorthand reporters, etc
This suit lasted SIX years, from January
1896 to January 1872, and cost him
$37 ,O9s 43, which he thinks excessive.
The Governor in forwarding this docu-
ment thinks il a surprising commentary
upon the state Of the laws in Illinois,
and believes that attention by the SEN
ate might properly Be given to the sub
jeet and the practice in courts so
amended that a person could resort to
the Supreme Court for justice without
being burdened by such frightful ex.
penses
