Is Unveiled To-Day
To-day the statue of the late Senator Hill,
of Georgia, is unveiled in Atlanta, Georgia.
The unveillng is made the occasion OF much
just eulogy, for Hill was the idol of the
South, and the tributes in his memory at the
time of his death are still fresh in the mind
OF the reader. Benjamin Harvey Hill was
born in Jasper county, Ga, September 18th,
1898. He graduated at the state university in
ls4i, and entered the profession of law at La
Grange, Ga, in 1885. In 1851 he was elected
member of the legislature from Troup
county, and in 1886 was elector at large on
the Fillmore ticket and in 1856 ran on the
American ticket for governor, but was de-
feated. In 1859 he was sent to the state
Senate and in 1860 was an elector on the Bell
and Everett ticket He was a member of
the secession convention OF January 1861,
and was an earnest advocate for the Union
until the ordinance of secession was passed
when he cast his fortunes with his state. He
was elected to the provisional Confederate
Congress that met at Montgomery, Ala,
February, 1861, aud was subsequently, elected
10 the Senate, serviag there until the close
of the war. He was arrested at his home in
La Grange, in 1865 and confined at FIT Law
fayette until the July following, when he
was released on parole In 1867 he presided
at the Macon convention, for the purpose of
recognizing the Democratic party. He was
opposed to the reconstruction programme of
Congress. He supported the Greeley move
ment and on this line OF policy com peted
in January 1883 tor a seat in the United
States Senate. The competitors were Gen
John b. Gordon, who though he supported
Mr.. Greeley, as the nominee of his party,
diaapproved OF the principles set forth in the
New Departure" platform, and Alexander
ii. stephens, who had utterly opposed
the election of Greeley, as well as any de-
parture from the principles of the Jeffer-
sonian Democracy. In this triangular con-
test Gen. Gordon bore Oft the palm, hut Mr.
Hill was elected TO the Senate in is77, He

No Mugwump This Time.

The president did not follow the advice
of Mr.. Beecher and his associate Mug

to pick out a postmaster for Brooklyn.
Guided, no doubt, largely by his own
knowledge of men and circumstances
there, he selected that young Mr.. Hendrix,
whom Low beat for mayor few years

that there was good stuff in him. He has

As an illuslrat on Of how the colored popu.
lation of the country, while possessing more
fecundity than the whites, die much more
rapidly than their paer-faced brethren, DR..
j. T. Mcfarland, health officer of Savannah,
reports that the death rate for the colored
population in 1885 was 35.i per thousand
The average annual mortality of the United
States, in the last census year, was only Is Os
per thousand of population. DIR. McFar-
lands figures are all the more striking be-
cause in 1885 the death rate among Savannah
whites was only 1919 per thousand, and the
year was noticeable in that city for "con-
tinuance of a most remarkable high rate Of
good health and marked exemption from
prevalence of contagious or infectious dis
eases"
