Gentlemen—Twenty-four days have

Benevolent Lodge No. 3, F. A. M-
A brother lias departed ! Who is he ?
Has Masonry sustained a loss ? For years
Brother Trice, almost single handed, sus
tained and upheld the great lights in
Benevolent Lodge No. 3. But for him
and a few others (some of whom have gone
to rest) some few remain, the lights on
our altar would have been extinguished
years ago.
We therefore motim the loss of a sup
port in Masonry—one who has long ele
vated its standard and stood firm in its
support. Therefore,
Resolved, That in his death this Lodge
has lost one of its brightest members, and
the community an esteemed and valued
citizen.
Resolved, That this Lodge, while
feeling deeply the loss of our brother,
bow to the will of the Supreme Grand
M&ster, acknowledging that he doeth all
things well.
Resolved, That we tender to his be
reaved widow’ and friends our heartfelt
sympathy in this the hour of their deep
distress, and commend them to the care
of our Heavenly Master.
Resolved, That the Lodge and jewels
be draped in mourning, and the brethren
wear the usual badge of mourning for
forty days.
Resolved, That the family of our de
ceased brother be furnished with a copy of
these resolutions and that they be published
in the public gazettes of the city.

Whereas, The late National Congress,
towards the close of its session, passed a
law’ largely increasing the pay of Con
gressmen, and by its retroactive feature
secured members §5,000 in excess of
what their constituents and the nation
had expected them to receive, and this at
a time when the financial condition of the
country demanded economy and retrench
ment in every direction.
Resolved, That we deeply deplo' u this
departure from the probity and dignity
and high standard of Congressional ac
tion, and that we specially regret and
condemn the course of such Representa
tives as favored tlie measure.
Resolved, That the intelligence and
morality and progressive spirit of the age
have received a shock and the public Real
blow from wliich they will not soon re
cover ; that the disgrace of the transac
tion attaches to the whole land, and is of
character that even charity itself would
reprove us did we not set upon it the seal
of our condemnation.
Resolved, That we hear with pleasure of
the repeal of the act by both Houses of
Congress and of the substantial restor
ation of the law of 1866.

Masquerade Ball.—There will be a
Masquerade Ball at the Representative
Hall, old Capitol, on next Friday evening,
23d. We learn that the gentlemen who
have taken the matter in hand will spare
no pains to make the Ball a complete suc-
cess.^The committee of arrangements have
adopted the following rules :
Ladies must present their invitations
at the door.
Gentlemen who receive invitations can
procure tickets for §1.00 each, by present,
ing them tc Mr. J. M. Clark or Mr. B R.
Herty. No one will be admitted who
fails to comply with tlie above.
All maskers will be required to unmask
before a committee of ladies and gentle
men before entering the liall, and each
character will be announced by one of the
reception committee.
All maskers will be required to keep
masks on until tlie signal to unmask

nouncer.
The above rules will be strictly en
forced.
Tm* Presidents Third Choice fob
fin«r Justice.—Morrison R. Waite of
Ohio was nominated by the President for
Chief Justice. This took Congress by
surprise, but he is a Republican, and was
never suspected of States Rights Democ
racy, it is probable he will be confirmed.
COUNTY AND MUNICIPAL BONDS
Mr. Peabody—To provide some manner
of issuing bonds by county and municipal
corporations. This act provides that no
county or municipal corparation shall is
sue any bonds or obligations without
thirty days’ notice in a newspaper, de
claring the object of issuing such bonds
as well as to the amount to be issued, the
time when the election is to be held. If
a majority of the legal voters, and a
majority of the tax payers favor it, then
bonds may issued. Bonds issued con
trary thereto shall be declared null and
void. The object is to prevent counties
and municipal corporations from running
into debt. The act will pass.
MISCELLANY.
Mr. Peabody introduced another act
to repeal all acts granting or loaning the
credit of the State to railroad companies
that have not secured vested rights. This
act does not affect the liability of the State
upon any indorsement heretofore made
under said acts.
By Mr. Wofford—A bill to repeal the
usury laws.
By Mr. Williamson of Baldwin—A bill

clamation, ordering an election in each

Georgia Railroad Company, from Gaines

and classes of persons mentioned in sec
6th of an act approved February 24tli
1873- The law to take effect January 1st
1875.
CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
By Mr. Wiliamson, of Baldwin-
An act to provide for a Constitutional
Convention.
Whereas, the constitution of 1868 was
imposed upon the people of Georgia con
trary to the will of her legal constituen
cies by unwarranted force from without
and frauds within; and whereas, under its
malign auspices her substance has been
consumed and her industries prostrated;
and whereas, in the good order of Pro
vidence her free people may again assert
her sovereignty and establish her sup-
preme law in wisdom, justice and modera
tion; therefore the General Assembly do
enact: %
First. That upon the passage of this act
lug Excellency the Governor be required
The Augusta Chronicle says : This
question of Convention or no Conven
tion is one that must be determined by
the people, and by the people alone.
It remains for the members of the
Legislature to declare that the people
shall or shall not have the right to de
cide the issue for themselves. The
question now is not for or against a
Convention. It is, shall the people of
Georgia be granted or denied the right
to express their wishes on the subject?
Qo West Through St. Louis.
To all who are seeking new homes in,
or are about to take a trip to Missouri,
Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Nebras
ka, Oregon oi California, we recommend
a cheap, safe, quick and direct route by
way of St. Louis, over the “Missouri
Pacific Through Line.” It is equipped
with fine Day Coaches, Buck s Reclining
Chair Cars, Pullman's Palace Sleepers,
the famous Miller Safety Platform, and
the celebrated Westinghouse Air-Brake,
and ruins its trains from St. Louis to
principal points in the W est without
change. We believe that the Missouri
Pacific Through Line has tlie. best track
of anv road west of the Mississippi Riv-
r, and with its superior equipment and
unriveled comforts for passengers, has
become the great popular thoroughfar e
between the East and West. Trains from
the North, South and East connect at St.
Louis with trains of the Missouri 1 acinc.
The Texas connection of this road is
j completed, and passengers are offer
ed a first class all-rail route from St.
Louis to Texas, either over the Missouri,
Kansas & Texas R. R, via Sedalia, or
over the Atlantic & Pacific R. R, via
Yinita. For maps, time tables, informa
tion as to rates, routes, etc., address L.
A. Ford, General Passenger Agent, St.

i)wo Foes of Health.
Cold and damp are inimical to health, as
we generally have an unwholesome com
bination of the two at this season. They
penetrate the skin and integuments and
affect the muscular, glandular and ner
vous organizations, producing rheuma
tism, neuralgia, chills and fever, and
where there is a tendency to dyspepsia or
liver complaint, provoking an attack ot
indigestion or biliousness. The best ad
vice that can be given under such circum
stances is to keep the external surface of
the body warmly clothed, and to keep
the internal organs in vigorous working
order with the most wholesome and ge
nial of all tonics, Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters. Gradually but constantly this
famous invigorant is supersedmg the
adulterated liquors of commerce, as a
medicinal stimulant and corrective, in all
parts of the country. It will be a happy
day for humanity, audit will surely come,
when this pure restorative shall have
taken the place of raw spirits as a stimu
lant in all our puplic and private hospi
tals. It is not, however, merely a harm
less substitute for the fiery stimulants re
ferred to. Its stimulating properties are
not its chief merits, although in this re
gard it surpasses all the unmedicated
product of the still, domestic or import
ed The powerful influence it exercises
over the torpid and toneless stomach,
the disorded liver, the constipated bow
els, and the relaxed nerves, render it a
positive specific in dyspepsia, liver com
plaint, intestinal constriction, nervous
weakness, hypochondria, rheumatism and
sleeplessness. All chrome complaints
are aggravated by a cold, moist atmos
phere, and it is therefore particularly ne
cessary for those who are afflicted with
ailments of tins nature, whatever their
type may be, to meet this predispos
ing cause of sickness with a wholesome
antidote. Hostetter s Bitters should be
taken daily at this season by aU persons
laboring under chrome ailments that tend
to weaken the system. O 4 lm -
Hon. Henry W. Hilliard and
Col. Z. D. Harrison have formed
a law partnership in Atlanta.
The great trouble with the workingmen
of this country is that they live right up
to their means, so that when a dull time
comes they are penniless and starving.—
This fact underlies all the labor demon
strations of the day. The fault if
peculiarly an American one, for there is
no class of laborers and mechames who
might not if they would, lay up something
for a “rainy day.” Our laboring people
seem to set their whole thought on the
“square meal” of to-day—and a fine suit
for holidays. It is only nobodies who
need fine clothes, perhaps. Horace Gree
ley in his old drab coat was none the less
a great man, and the plainest, most un
pretentious man in New York is Wm. B
Astor. When American mechanics think
less of back and belly, they will have
more money in pocket and need fewer
“labor demonstrations.”
The first patent issued in the Uni
ted States,of which there is any record,
was granted to Soloman Hodkins,

THE 0SLY kAOHfl MEDICINE
that at the same Time
Purges, Lorifies, and Strengthens the
System.
Dr. Tali’■ Pille are composed of many ingredi
ents Prominent among them are Sarsaparilla aud
Wild Cherry, so united as to act together; the one,
through its admixture with other substances, purify
ing and purging; while the other is strengthening the
system Thus these Pills are at the same time atonic
aud a cathartic, a desideratum long sought tor by med
ical men, but never before discovered. In other
words, they do tlie work of two medicines and do it
much better than any two we know of, for they re
move nothing from the system bnt impurities, so that
while they purge they also strengthen and hence they
cause no debility and are followed by no reaction.
Dr. Tali’* Pill* have a woaderful influence on
the biood. They not only purify without weakening
it, but they remove all noxious particles from the
chyle before it is converted into fluid, and thus makes
impure blood an utter impossibility. As there is no
debilitation, so there is no nausea or sickness attend
ing the operation of this most excellent medicine,
which never strains or tortures the digestive organs,
but causes them to work in a perfectly natural man
ner- hence persons taking them do not become pale
and emanciated, but on the contrary, while all itnpn
rities are being removed, the combined action of the
Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry purifies and invigorates
the body, and a robust state of health is the result ot
their united action. Price. 25 cents a box. Sold by
.’•1 druggists. Depot 48 Cortlandt St, New York.
