Obituary..

1t is with a deep feeling of sadness that
we learn Of the death Of our much loved
one, Miss Rose Black; in grieving over our
loss it behooves US to offer our tribute of re-
spect to her and to speak to those most near
and dear to her some words Of consolation.
The departed was aflectionate and kind
hearted to all ; deeply devoted to her par
ents and those nearest to her. Thus she
leaves friends near and remote TO weep over
her early demise a summons ere the sun of
her life had reached its meridian; she was
bcckoncd by the messenger of Death, to
come to her God.
Taken thus early from the broad, fair
field of her usefulness, in which she moved,
n graceful ornament, she has recorded an cX-
ample of pure and gentle christian life,which
will never, no never, fade from the memory
of those who knew her. This life to her
was pleasant and in its brightness sweet as
life is when death enwraps the mind, she
was patient and without murmur awaited
his gentle call.
During the interval Of few short weeks
this heroic sufferer battled the dread disease
which had taken so firm hold, but Death
conquered, and on January 9th, 49, she babe
US all, farewell, with ligh: upon her coun-
tenance that spoke to us 'Bssscd is she who
passeth a life of peace, happiness and tran
guilty; who meets the last solemn moments
Of this earthly pilgrimage with christian for
titudc as one who folds the drapery OF her
couch around her and lies down to peaceful
dreams
"lIow brief in life, how passing BRIEF
"How brief its joys and cares"
at seems to be in league with time"
"And leaves us unawares.'

The Collision at winston.

rom bhe Edtdbh0 kttt.) Hor06d.
An unfortunate accident occurred on
the Florida Southern railway on Monday
afternoon, about one and half miles from
Evinston. when there was a collision be-
tween the north-bOund passenger train
and ''wlld cat" iron train bound south.
From the information we could get, it
seems that the passenger train was run
ming on schedule time, and that the watch
of the engineer of the iron train had stop
ped, of which fact he was not aware,
and thinking that he had ample time
TO make EVinston station, he pulled
out, with the above result. The
engines came together with a terrible
crash, making a complete wreck of both.
The baggage and express car of the pas
senger train was telescOped and COM
pletely wrecked. Messrs. Palmer and
Hurst, two express messengers, were
caught in the wreck and bruised and hurt
pretty bad, though no bones were broken.
Mr.. Hurst received the most serious in
jury. having one of his knees turned ont
of place. The timbers Of the wrecked car
had to be cut away TO let them out, and
1t was almost miracle that they were not
killed. The engineer and firemen saved
themselves by jumping from the engines,
and were only shaken up by their roll on the
ground. In the shock of coming together
one of the fiat cars loaded with iron
was forced on top of the car in front, and
it is said to have been placed AS nicely as
il it had been loaded there. Both engines
were thrown entirely from the track, and
one of them turned completely around, 50
great was the force of the collision. None
of the passengers were injured. One OF
the wrecked engines was only received a
few days since, and had been in regular
service only three days, while the other
had been in use only few weeks, and
the loss OF their service will prove quite
serious to the Florida Southern, as their
rolling stock was already insufficient TO
accommodate their rapidly increasing
business. The track was cleared of the
wreck, and there has been no delay TO the
running of the regular trains.

Prohibition in Georgia.

Mayor HIllyer publicly thanks the peo-
pie of Atlanta for the good order main

The question of an election on prohibi-
ton for Hall county is being discussed. A

At Atlanta Wednesday many private
carriages were decked with blue ribbons.

city, owned by a very wealthy gentleman,
whirled through the streets with the sill

With blue ribbons, and a large blue bow

The Cobb county grand jury say: at
is a SUBJECT for profound congratulation
that since the adoption of prohibition
crime has wonderfully decreased, the
moral atmosphere has been purified. and
peace ana good order prevail. Quiet
reigns where once scenes of disorder and
confusion were supreme. Property values
have increased, our towns show unmis-
taxable evidences OF prosperity, and our
people universally endorse the change"
Nearly all of Wednesday the ladies OF
Trinity and Of the First Methodist church
at Atlanta held meetings in their respec-
tive churches for the success OF the pro-
hibitiOn cause. Besides praying, there
was singing, and occasionally one Of the
ladies' would make few remarks upon
the subject ana IN favor OF prohibition.
The attendance, at no time, was very
large, but the meetings continued una
bated in interest until late In the after
noon.
Rev. B. j. Allen, colored, pastor Of the
colored Methodist church at GAINESVILLE,
the nresent wear. has received rom the
churches in his circuit only $40 so for b s
wears work. The alledged reason why
he received so meagre support, is that
he spoke and worked for prohibition. His
walk has been orderly, he has labOred
earnestly among the colored people, and
deserves more compensation than ne has
received. An effort is now being made to
raise money among the white people to
help him along.

Georgia,s U. S. Military Post.

The new United States Military post at
Atlanta will be arranged to accommodate
ten companies. The buildings, number
ing in all fOrty-five, will be Of brick, put
up in the most substantial character, and
arranged with view to comfort and con-
venience. They will consist of officers
quarters, mems barracks, storehOuses,
nOn-cOmmIssiOned officers quarters.
bakery, stables, hospital and guard house.
The available appropriation with which
to commence the work is $4,000, and the
estimated cost of the post is about $780,
600. The land, consisting of 14415 acres,
has been purchased at a cost of $4,000.
The plans and specifications for the build
ings are as nearly completed as 1t was
possible to do in Washington, and the
remainder of the work will be done on
the grOU nds.
When they are completed bids will be
asked for, and the proposals will be pub
lished in many of the most prominent
newspapers in this and other States for a
period of forty days. This advertising
will be done in about six weeks, and the
contractor, whoever it will be, will take
the work proposed to make a strait in the
spring.
Every year small garrisons in the West
are being broken up, and others on the
South Atlantic coast are being with
drawn, and the post left in charge of a
small detachment. AS the post to be
built here will be an important and per-
manent one, these garrlsons will be
brought here, and it can be said with
safety that the garrison will at all times
have as many troops as it can accommo-
day. Capt. Jacobs says that Atlanta is
an admirable selection for the location of
a permanent post. owing TO her fine rail-
road facilities and her healthful climate.
