from whence, after the war, he went
with his parents to Coushatta. Here
the usual routine Of litc's pursuits
marked his career until he reached
manhOod's estate. About this time
he developed a talent for the ''art
divine" and throwing up his stick
and rule" he gave UP his fellowship
in the typographical craft, and began
the study of music.
Since that period his life has been
checkcrcd, iraught with was want
and disaster; but by dint of indomi
table will, which has so characterized
his efforts since childhood, he waded
through adycrsitics and s'lrmounted
obstablc after obstacle. From Lou
isiana he went to Alabama and loca-
ted at the pleasant little village of
Mountain Home, where greater adj
vantages were afforded him. For
two years, in This secluded retreat,
nc applied himself zealously. After
wards he went to Georgia, where for
u long period he applied alternately
to typc-sctting and his violil-thc
ono to "kccp the wolf from the DOOR
while the other nurturcd his hungry
love for music. In this way he has
changed from State to State and place
to place until he has almost attained
the acme of his exalted ambition.
And though Alabama has been the
principal seat of his learning, and to
whom should be given the great need
of praise and gratitude, still, While
congratulating our young friend, we
would remind him that Louisiana
holds the birthrisht of his genius
All hail, gifted dcyotcc Of the vio-
lin-all hail Your generous young
heart and sweet melody will soon win
you an exalted place in the hearts OF
our cOuntrymcn!

Ex-Governor and cXunited States
Senator Albert Gallatin Brown was
drowned in a pond on his plantation
near Terry last Saturday. He rode
his horse to the pond, and, it is sup
posed, fell off in q fit of apoplcxy.
His remains were carried to jackson
aud laid in state in the Capitol until
this morning, when the funeral took
place. Crowds of people visited the
Capitol to take q last look at the cas-
ket containing the remains of the
illustrious dead. Gov. Brown was
the youngest Governor Mississippi
ever had, and for his brilliant quail
ties of mind and heart, was honorcd
by the party of his allegiance with
positions of trust up to the close of
the war, when the cohorts of Radi-
calism, backed by Republican bayo-
nets, excluded him from further Off
cial services. But his clarion voice
and trenchant cnnevcriailcd to drive
the shaft of terror into the hearts Of
these political vampires. He was in
his sixty-seventh year at the time OF
his death, and though gray hairs
had whitcncd his dark locks, and
time had weakened his physical Wig
or, he was the same brilliant peer
that in by-gonc days sladdcned the
hearts of his countrymcn with quick
wit and deep research. A statesman
has goncto rest his weary limbs on the
shore of eternity; may his generous
spirit quaf the sweetest joys OF the
angel home.

IN MEMORIAM OF DK. A y. BURLINGTON.
Our most worthy and esteemed doctor has
been taken from our midst. It was with min
gIcd feelings Of grief and regret that we realized
his death, one among the purcst and noblcst OF
carth's bright jewels.
Though young his life was ilaushi with good
examples. His Kindness, purity and patience
and charity aIc deeply cngraitcd in the rccollcc
tions Of many, whose tender regard for him will
weave around their hearts a holy influence To
his giicfStlicbcu parent we tender our deepest
sympathy.
"Nonc knew ihcc but to love thee,
None knew thee but to praise
Life is span, a ccting hour
How soon the yap0r flies
Man is a tender, transient flower
That cen in blooming dies.
That once loved form, now cold and dead
Each mouniul thought employs;
We weep our earthly comforts fled.
And witbercd all urjoyS.
When blooming youth is snatclicd away
BY death rcHiStlrsS hand
Our hearts The mournfnl tribute pay
Which pity must dcmand.
Let this vain world dclu,lc no more;
Behold the gaping tomb!
II bids ,ls seize the present hour,
Tomorrow death may come.

THE SOUTHERN VIOLINIST.

The great charm of the entertain
ment, however, lay in the violin per
forlnance of Mr.. Monte Pickcns, Of
Courtland, Ala. TO say that Mr..
Pickens showed himself master Of the
violin is only to reflect the opinion Of
I'LL who heard him on this memorable
occasion. The high degree of per
fection which he has attained in this
eminent branch of the musical art is
wonderful, when it is remembered
that he is comparatively youthful and
entirely sclf-educated i'll music.
Throughout the long and exquisite
"NIa Normandie,' and the beautiful
but difficult "Fiith Air. of BcbcriOt,
which he played, his bowing and in
donations were executed with such
graceful ease aud artistic excellence
that one was reminded of the great
Willlelmj. Mr.. Pickens was accom-
panied on the piano under the accn-
rate and exquisite touch of his sister,
Miss Gertrude. -NdshrMlc lmcric0N.
At mere glance, the above may
prove unintercsting to our readers,
but when it's local connection is Smadc
known, pride will take the part of
indifference. The notice comes from
one of the most prominent journals
in the South, and attests the unboun-
led success of IL yourg man who, to
our knowledge, has had a hard and
discOuraging contest withadvcrslty IN
his ambitious struggle for the dcvel-
upment of his genius and its attend
ant reward-fame. The successful
ovation alluded to was on the occa-
sion of concert given i'll honor OF
the Knight Templars, in Nashville,

. HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

1t will be apparent to any one, who will ex-
anime SOLID GonD WATon that aside from
the necessary thickness for engraving and
polishing, q large proportion OF the precious
metal used, Is needed only to stinfen and hold
theengraved PORTIONS In place. and supply the
n cessary solidity and strength. The surplus
gold is actually needless so tdr aB Utility and
beauty are concerned. In JAMES BOSS PAT.
ENT GOLD WATCH CASES, this WASTE OF pre-
ctous metal Is overcome and tho SAME soLfplrY
AND STRENGTH produced at from one-third to
one-half OF the usual cost Of solid cases. This
process is Of the most simple nature, as FOL.
lows: q plate of nickel composition metal;
specially adapted to the purpose, has two plates
ofsoLID GOLD solderodone on each side. The
three are then passed between polished steel
rollers and thefesult is strip OF heavy pIatcd
composition. from which the cases, backs, GEN.
tres, bezzles, &C.. are cut and shapodtby suita.
bio dies and formers. The gold in, these cases
Is sufficiently thick to admit of all kinds of
chasing, engraving and enamellng; the en-
grayed cases have boen carried until worn per.
