Chappell—Eulogtot by Judge Footer Iagrtm, Cot. Mobley, Mnj. R. J. Motet, Judge Pon, John Peabody, Etq.,and Judge Jamet Johnton-Several Affected to Teare. At one o’clock last afternoon, in the Superior Court, Judge James Johnson announced that the time bad arrived for hearing the report and resolutions on the death of Judge Marshall J. Wellborn. COL. A. B. CHAPPELL arose and stated that he and Judge Well born hod been intimate friends for years. They first met iu Haris county in 1828. He bad practiced law with and under him. The report which he was about to read was based upon tlie character of the de based as it was impressed upon him during the long period of personal friend, ship. He then read the following REPORT OF THE COMMITTER. The Committee, consisting of Messrs. A. H. Chappell, Martin J, Crawford, Gns- tavus Delaunay, Henry L. Banning and Lemuel T. Downing, who were appointed by a meeting held the day after tho death of the Hon. Marshall J. Wellborn which meeting Ilis Honor,Judge Johnson, and a number of the members of the bar were present—beg leave, in discharge of the mournful office assigned them, to re port the following tribute to the memory of our distinguished brother, so recently and suddenly taken away. Our departed brother was bound to us long aud intimately by ties of great per sonal and professional lovo and esteem. What be was in ail his elements of mind and character and in all tho relations, pri vate and public, of his pure, honorable aud well spent life,is too well known alike iu tbe community at large, and iu the wide circle of the whole bur of Georgia,to make it needful to enter upon any lu- bored rehearsal in regurd to him on tho present occasion. Long will he live fresh and familiar, and l>e proudly and affec tionately cherished in the bosoms of all, especially of his professional brethren. But yet in addition to such remeniherauco closing years were pervaded by a heavenly very temple of justice, where we are now charm, and his life crowned with a fine assembled to mourn his loss.

Resolved, That we cherish with pride and affection tho memory of the virtues, the talents, tbe learning, and merits, and the distinguished snd useful career of our deceased brother, tbe Honorable Marshall J. Wellborn, and in testimony thereof, we lay this tribute on his grave, and ask that it may be spread upon the minutes of this court. Resolved also, That we deeply condole with his kindred and relations in their great bereavement, and that the clerk be di rected to transmit a copy of those pro ceedings to his nephew, the Honorable John T. Clark, to be received by him in his own and their behalf. Cob Chappel moved the adoption of the report. JUDGE PORTER tNQRAM stated, in substance, he had known tlie deceased forty years, having become ac quainted with him in 1830, and wus par ticularly attached to him. Judge Well born had then jnst removed to Columbns, leaving in Harris a good name and repu tation. He was a good law} or, and an honest man, in whom every one had con fidence. lie was ever ready to uid young lawyers by kind words and assistance. The speaker owed him much for tho un failing courtesy and favor he bad extend ed to him when entering on his profes sion. Twenty-ono years ago the speaker removed to Columbns. The coleiuport- ries of the deceased at the bar at that time were giants in intellect, and the de ceased held his own among them. Only twenty-one short years ago, and many of them sleep in the graveyard with Judge Wellborn. He could recall tho uatuos of Seaborn Jones, Judges Thomas, Adams, Terry and Alexander, Col.

The Zoo Combination Company will ntppear in Columbus next week. M'llo Zoe is said to be a lino actress, and there which we ever held him, some token of tbe grief which we feel at his loss from earth. For his whole career—from bud ding young manhood to the grave—iden tified him with this city and this section of tho Htate through A period of more than forty-six years. Thither from hfs native—Puturm—county he caiuo e’re lie had attained full age, and settled in tho neighboring county of Harris early in 1828 when the country was yet new and wild, the county scurcely organized, und its Court house an exceedingly smull, rude log structure. Young as he wus he brought with him to those woods, soon to becomo tho seat of civili/.utiou, cnlturo and wealth, qualifications that at once gave high promiso for him 'in tho noble and arduous profession on which ho im mediately entered. How rapidly ho suc ceeded from his very outset ami rose to populority und a fine practice, there are those still living who onu attest. He lit erally grow and kept puce with tho coun try in which ho hud cast liis lot, aud which proved not more propitious as a field for the oulerprising husbandman, who throngod to it from fur and near, than favorable as a theatre to him for lim professional pursuits. But the happy lo cation he had chosen nvuh a smull matter compared with tho advantages ho had within himself—virtue, tulouts, industry, high enthusiasm, a noble ambi tion, good previous preparation for tho bar, to which his intellectual make ami tastes were singularly adapted. For he loved the law intensely as n study aud as n mental occupation, and mastered and en joyed it alike as a science utul hb a busi ness, taking delight in its investigations and reasonings and iu its uppliuutious to the affuirs aud interests of men. Aud greatly was his ploaNuro in it increased when he oatne at length to trace its eter nal and expansivo principles up to tho throue of God, and to fiml in them a vital kindred to ull righteousness und justice. It was this almost religions scutiment which a mind remarkable for its fine moral feeling and conscientiousness ear ned into legal researches, that rendered the bar, although he adorno i it, less con genial, on tho whole, to him, than the ironch, which for aserics of years ho tilled, aud was felt by all to grucu and honor. Nor in politics, either, did ho find himself so much in his proper homo as in tho ju- dioiul sphere, though he acquitted him self with reputation aud up to the highest standard of representative duty both in our State Legislature and iu tho Congress of the United States. Whilst yst a youug man, enjoying a rapidly growing reputation aud prospects, bo changed his residence from Hamilton to this city. Here it was thut ho reached that pinaolo in his profession on which he loug stood auioug us. I lore he attained to the judicial honors which he no wor thily and acceptably wore. Heuce, also, through popular favor and appreciation, he found his way to a seat in the national Legislature, and here, too, ho prospered so greatly in his affairs as to accumulate that handsouio competency which enabled him to take a loug respite from the labors and avocations of business, both public and private, and to travel extensively in his own and foreign countries. But this long pastime of elegant and high-senson- ed enjoyment aud recreation did not spoil him or muasoulate his miud, habits or tastes. On returning homo ho at once resumed the harness and wont to work again with unabated zeal, energy and suc cess. At leugth, after snob protracted And uuvaryiug success as had blessed him in nil his worldly aims aud aspirations, bin very prosperity seemed to have the ef fect of turning his grateful thoughts heavenward and fixing them ou that sub lime duty which is paramount to nil oth ers—tho duty which man owes to his God. As the mighty weight and magni tude of that duty became more and more realized by him, ho was led to withdraw from this contentious forensic arena, and dovoto himself to cultivating iu retirement those undying germs of early piety, which parental lessons slid examples had not ceased to sow iu his young heart from the first dawning to the mature development of his mind. After thorough And deeply conscientious study and preparation, he oublicly united him self with that branch of tho Church in which he had been boru and bred, and soon became a bright aud shining light there, giving himself _ w up wholly to its vice, ministering at its altars, proclaiming its glad tidiugs, diffusing precious com fort wherever ho wout, not oirly l>y his high religious encouragement aud edify ing conversation, but also by his abun dant charities and incessant unpaid labors. For having an ample income of his owu, he applied himself aud all his time to Heaveu’s work at his owu sole cost, and, like tho grand apostolic Wesley, not uu- frequently stinted himself, that he might goeH on without them. Twenty-one short years more, and who will fill the seats now occupied ? They, perhaps, thought they were necessary to tho world, as per haps we do now ; but they, in solemn procession, have gone to that bourne whence no truveler returns. They wran gled und fought, made bad charges against each other the saute as now. Tho living procession is moving to the same end. The lesson taught is that we should contend with all tho zeal possible to gain the cause entrusted to us, and at the same time cultivate kind and courteous rela tions. Judge Wellborn wns a true frieod aud an honest man. Homo fifteen years ngo he abandoned the practice of lavs', of which profession be was an ornament, aud commenced preaching tho Gospel of Christ. Of this portion of his life he left to others to speak. [Tho above is a very iinperfoot report ] COL. MODLEY, of Hamilton, iu substance said, he hod first met the deceased by his father’s firoside. Tho speaker came to the bar when the deceased was Judge of this Cir cuit. He added his testimony to Hint of Judgo Ingram of his universal kindness to the youug members of tho profession. It was his good fortune to be under the ministry of the deceased. Tho speaker knew no one was so universally charitable and generous. He hunted out the orphan, tho widow and the destitute iu such a way as to let it remain unknown who was tho benefactor. Many widows in Harris county owe their homes to him. He was especially kind in this respect just after tho war. Ho was a faithful, zealous pas tor, paid most of tho expenses of tho churches^ under his charge, and would accept no salary. The lessons taught by hiR life should be heeded by all. JOHN TEABOPY, ES(J., said ho was about the only one of the lawyers left who eutorod tho practice just us Judgo Wellborn was leaving it. His conduct as n lawyer and character as a in .n impressed tho speaker most favorably. He was possessed of tho strictest honor in his profession, and left it without a spot 1 his gown. ADDRESS OF MAJOR B. J. MOSES. I seldom speak on these occasions, but God who knows my heart, kuows that I could not he silent if I would. As my brother Iugruiu says, a good name is bet tor than precious ointment. Proclaim it l Tho lifo of MarshnllJJ. Wellborn is being reviewed to-day. His praises have been poured forth in* just ami eloquent eulogy. Now let his accusers come—envy, malice, hatred, calumny, come forth ! Ilis friends ask not the charity of s.looco. These envenomed shafts poised high in air, fall harmless to tho earth. The rigid limbs, the lifeless corpse, the dumb lips, the flashing eye, now sealed in i»s eternal sleep, offer no resistance; but ho ro lived thut liis memory panoplied in honor dofios assault. Emulate his example ! Live a life so pure that when tho final summons comes, though, as in his case, you be stricken down in tho midst of your labors without oven a moment’s admonitiou, you may be able at the final hour to say : I lived not for earth, the richos I strived to accumu late were these—on earth, the approving voice of conscience, and here, nt the throue, the commendation of tho eternal God, at whose footstool I now npp. ar. Compare a life thus culminating to that of oue whose days woro spent in the acruinitiation of worldly goods, and who, at life’s close, exchanges all his treasured wealth, for the humble habiliments of the grave, aud has nothing to poiut hack to in his past lifo but earthly riches won from widow’s tears and orphan’s cries, or merciless exactious from his fellow man. Ponder upou tho coutrast, aud tell mo why it is that such exaiup’es have not s greater tendency to soften aud purity the huninu heart. Life is but a span. Eternity is so en during as to defy man’s finite compre hension, and yet such a Iobkou ns this life teaches will be forgotteu ere you gilded sun has set, and with the breaking dawn we will begin anew the struggle atnl the coutest, the bitterness and the strife that cate, appeared for the plaintiff. These desks were occupied by Walter Colquitt, Alfred Iverson, Wiley William*, Grigsby E. Thom is, Alexander McDougald—each distinguished for talents that gave them nu individuality of character and lifted them above the ordinary practitioners, few years in the cycle of time has rolled away, and where are they'mow ? All, all passed from life to death—not a vestige of all that life remains. Their very bones ore this, have become disintegrated and mingled with the earth from whence they sprung. Huch is life, fleeting life. Take the lesson to your hearts my friends, and learn to live like him whose death we mourn. Live remembering That virtuous odors overthrow The force of all the winds that blow, Aii'l who 80 lives In truth and grace All realms affirm his resting place. Even tho young men who, on that day, were entering into life have been gathered with the dead. I recall bnt two that I then saw in this court-house who now sur vive. These two had already made their matk among the intellectual giants with which they had to cope. Their eyes were bright with inteileet and ambition, they bore themselves proudly, as full of promise as of hope. They still live full of honor and of years hut how changed. Their forms are bent, their brows are furrowed, their heads are silvered o’er with age. Life is ho longer in the foreground, it is all in the past, demonstrating its vanity and its illusions. They steud upon the precipice and beyond what vision meets their gaze? The open ing grave and an unknown and undefined future. Iu one you doubtless recognize our ju dicial brother, with his intellect ripened and nndiuuued, who has administered justice with such iute.ligence and impar tiality as to win the merit of praise from his political opponents. Iu the other, Henry L. Benning, bowed and worn by his‘ country's wrongs, the embodiment of personal integrity and genoruons impulsfs, as full of honor as he is of years. Except myself, these two are the only survivors of that day’s scene. I, too, am admonished tbat life’s glnss has nearly run. Compared with what I then was, I stnad upon the shoal of time a shattered wreck, like Leah, of old, bid ing the peltiog of tbe pitiless storm. We three, and yon the Nestor of the his profession, here two of ns alone sur vive. We are particularly admonished that our time is short, and that oar coarse is nearly run. Generation succeeds genera tion as waves of the sea succeed each other, and the lesson impressed by the poet-warrior-king of Israel on his assem bled people at four seore years on the eve of his deparure, is now again announced to us All; “We are sojonrnersas were our fathers: we speud onr days as a shadow, and there is none abiding.” RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED. The resolutions were adopted by a unanimous vote. AFFECTING. During tbe delivery Jndge Johnson wbb affected to tears, aud read with difficulty. This is cot to be wondered at, for tbe de ceased was the seuior of the firm, Well horn, Johnson A Sloan, which existed for many years, and of which Judge Johnson the only survivor. The junior partner, nephew of Judge Johnson, UeuL-Col. Tom Hloan, one of the most promising young lawyers of the State, was killed at Gettysburg while at the head of his Geor gia regiment. During the delivering of the addresses, in the room, which was filled with law yers and spectators, the only sound which broke the grave like silence were the voices tbe speakers. While Judge Ingram and Major Moses were speaking eyes not used to weeping were moistened with tears. It was a fitting tribute to a noble man, whom all loved and honored. w points onr way aud umiks tho rugged have tho more to give to the needy and \ stops of life. suffering.

The speaker tn dorsed the preceding remarks as to the ability and high moral worth of Judge Wellborn. . JUDGE JAMES JOHNSON, from tho bench, read tho following: ADDRESS OF JUDOE JAMES JOHNSON. IIliving sustained relations of intimacy with the deceased, and occupying my present jKisition, it is but proper that I should pay at least a word of tribute to the memory of a departed friend. When onr ncquaiutnuce was first formed lie was the preHidiug Judge of this Cir cuit. lie was elocted to the office over determined aud fierce opposition. His friends were proud of him and his sue cess. Jlis triumph, however, did not make him giddy or mislead him iu the performance of the functions of office. Tlie central aud oontroliog pur pose with him was to admidister law', and when he laid aside the ermine it was w'ithout spot or blemish. About the time of the expiration of his commission ho entorod upon and engaged in the business of planting; not, however, abandoning his profession. This ho continued for severul years, and so successfully as to have accumulated what in onr day and section might with propriety be called fortune. Ilis thirst also for knowledge about this time was ardent, and his ambition for sitiou and power infused itself into actiouH and projects. Europe was visited nud books, literary aud miscellaneous, were bought, that additions might be made to lus then acquirements, and that his claims to merit might be enhanced. The political party to which he was tbon attached held him in such esteem that he was solectod by them to be their candidate iu a District of doubtful result. He passed through a heavy canvass, was elected and served his District and State ns a Representative, during one Congress. This position was not held by him for such a length of time os to enable him to become conspicuous in tho deliberations of tbat body. In securing tho place he was subjected to assault—as are all who prefered to adhere to the suggestions of principle rather than adopt tbe ever chaugiug policies of a party seeking to obtain power and place. Having return ed troiu Congress with credit to himself and satisfaction to his friends, he entered with fresh energy and renewed vigor upon the practice of the law, and while thus engaged I became associated with him and my nephew. He was the eldest ami leadiug member. Our relations were intimate. Our business was pretty large ami as successful ami lucrative ns could have been expected. His constitution w as fecbln but ho attained unto greater years than wns anticipated by himself friends. He never married, but when life commenced to decline bo then re gretted that he had permitted the opportunity to pass, and that he placed beyond tho reach of tho sympa thies and endoarmeuts of that re lution. His life was not a failure, but eontrary to the geuoral result, he had bee success ful beyond tho measure of the lot appor tioned to men. Onu thing he had not yet attained unto. Happiness was sought by him in mental culture, but he found in neither wealth nor power nor place the position for which his heart yearned. He had wants that these could not satisfy. He had yearn ings—moral, spiritual yearnings. Spirit ual wants that ca-led for spiritual loud. Tho source of supply for these wants the soul was manifested to him. He made haste, yielded, and sought rest and refuge iu God. Deodsdono are not merely accomplished facts, but thev and their iufluenco abide G. W. Brown Keeps on band ail kind of Family Gro ceries.
