After standing manfully to his post during

LtllS CITY. re aSSuTt lllIu ne Will meet

THE GENIAL countenance of our
clever young townsman, Mr.. S. Z. SEWER, of
the firm of S. Z. SEWER Il Co., was visible on
the streets yesterday, having recently return
ed from an extended tour through the princi-
pal cities Of the east and Canada. Mr.. Sevler
returns much improved in health, and re-
sumes business with renewed vigor and in
creased facilities.
OCCASIONALLY we hear of persons who
In of hmm nj
ty, during the presence OF the fever, who were
SO quiet and unobtrusive, that their names
are known only among those IN the immedi-
ate circle where their good deeds will ever be
remembered. one OF these, is Mr.. Thomas r.
Waring, who left his business early in the sea-
son OF the scourge, and devoted himself en-
tirsly to the care of the sick, without regard
to condition or circumstance-not only
watching at the bedside, but contributing of
his own means toward the alleViatiOn of suf-
fering. MIR. Waring will be remembered by
those who were rscipiants Of his attentions
and kindness, and his name should be record
ed high up in the lists of those whom Mem
phis will ever hold in highest esteem.
COLONEL GEORGE GIBSON, the genial,
kind-hearted disbursing officer for the war
department at Memphis, has proved a friend
indeed TO the sufferers of this city. He has
been making a tour on leave ever since
August, and expects 10 return to his station
in few days, and anticipates paying out
ent winter, il the colored folks will only come
forward, present their claims for bounty and
take away the cash. During his absence, Col
onel Gibson has contributed generously to our
relief fund, and few days since he had prI-
vate interview with President Grant, when
he represented to him the terrible condition
OF Memphis, and endeavored particularly to
interest His Excellency IN behalf of the large
number of children rendered orphans. PreS1-
dent Grant listened with great interest TO the
appeal of the gallant colonel, and informed
him that he had just ordered an additional
supply of provisions and clothing to be sent
TO Memphis.
ANOTHER name has been added to
the fearfully long and heartrending list of
victims to the fell monster yellow-fever, that
has held spell bound the absent friends, and
trembling denizens of the fair city of Mem
phis, in the death of our esteemed friend,
William Juniper (the subje of this notice },
known to his friends and acquaintance, as
one of the warm-hearted, liberal and devoted
citizens Of the place in which he died. Not
compelled by personal interest to remain
within reach of the terrible destroyer, yet
with the liberality of which few are capable,
he volunteered TO care for the interests of 9TH
ers and now rests in his grave as a martyr to
bis warm hearted devotion. The deceased,
VIM. Juniper, will be remembered by his
many friends, for his good qualities only, yet
the brightness OF his character obscured all
that was dark, and the warmneSS of his heart
compensated for his errors. Memphis had
few citizens possessing equal energy and de-
NOttOn, as vas possessed by the deceased, and
his loss will be felt on the business walks of
life, long after the dark cloud of the scourge
shall have faded in the distance. There is a
heroism peculiarly attractive in the charac-
ter such as his, that fearlessly assumes the
discharge of duty under circumstances so try
ing as those through which he passed, from
an energetic and prosperous life, TO the death
of victim TO a scourge, so fearful as the one
that has for 50 many weeks decimated the
fair city of which he was an honored repre-
sentative. Farewell, friend Juniper, and il
thou art coguizant of the many regrets that
follow thy remains to their last resting place,
thy spirit will be cheered, in that diseaseless
world, by consciousness of the appreciation
in which your noble services are held. May
the Qf1iipfiOn GlrQlV nrpGSinU thX
city, be quickly removed, and may those who
loved thee, be permitted to return to mark
thy resting place, and deck thy grave with
tokens OF their affection, and may Thy memo
~ be embalmed en- their many hearts, and
the spirit OF thine energy and truthfullness
be copied in their characters, and the lesson
OF thy devotion break down the spirit OF self
ishness, and lead 10 the same liberal, self-de-
nying character, that cost thee thy life,
