object of the meeting, and alluded verv
patheticallv to the sad occasion which
had called them together to give public
expression of the citizens of their deep
sorrow at the great liereavement that had
overtaken the State in the death of its
Chief Magistrate, who had but a few days

profound sorrow for the public loss occa
sioned by the death of Alexander Hamil
ton Stephens, late Governor ol the Com
monwealth, unite in this heartfelt tribute
to his memorv. Georgia mourns the no
ble dead. In' her galaxy of great names
no character is illuminated with the ra
diance of a nature more gentle and hu

for Georgia found expression in the con

HONORS TO THE BEAB.
Action of the Sesqui-Centennial Com
mittee.
The memliers composing the General
Committee of the late Sesqui-Centennial
met at 8 o’clock yesterday evening at
the Library Hall of the Georgia Historical
Society. - The object of the meeting (as by
the advertisement announcing the same)
was to take action relative to the death of
Governor Stephens, who so lately had
borne such a distinguished and honored
part in the celebration of the Sesqui-Cen
tennialof Savannah’s foundation, but who
no lies in the arms of Death, in the capi
tal of the State.
The meeting was an informal one ami
presided over by Gen. Henrv R. Jackson,
President of the Georgia Historical Soci
ety and Chairman of the committee, who
introduced the following resolutions, as
expressive of the sense of the Sesqui-Ceu
tennial Committee and of the people of
Savannah. No sjieeehes were made—tbe
eloquence of silence conveying in stronger
language than w ords can depict the feel
ings that overcome when a great liereave
ment falls upon a whole people. The res
olutions as read were adopted unani
mously, and are the simple but expressive
record of a great loss and a great public
i grief:
He*<Jrtd, That the acceptance by Governor
Stephens ot the invitation to deliver the ad<
■ lre.->.s at the celebration of our late Sesqui-
Centennial Anniversary; the able manner in
which he discharged that duty, although his
physical frame was almost exhausted and the
remaining sands of his life were few; his
cheerful endurance of the trials to which he
was necessarily subjected; his tender aud
winning bearing toward all who approached
him, and the self-sacrificing spirit which he
exhibited at all times and everywhere, en
deared him to the heart.-, of our jieople to an
extent which no formal resolution can ex
press.
Resulted, That while we. as the Committee
who were instrumental iu bringing him hith
er, are grieved by the possibility that the ef
forts which he made so kindly and cheerfully
in our behalf, may have aggravated the dis’-
ease which accelerated his end, yet, on the
other hand, vve cannot hut glory iu the fact
that his great name will stand, side by side,
with that of Oglethorpe's in all future cen
tennial celebrations. “.Yen gib!, *<•</ aliit."
Resolved, That, during her entire life of a
centurv aud a half. Georgia has rejoiced in no
son who. by the |tower of his lieatLand the
gentleness of his heart; by the wisdom of his
counsels and the self-sacrificing manliness of
his acts; by the spotless integrity of his public
juid the angelic charities of his' private life,
has encircled her brow with so lovely a wreath
of immortelles.
Resolved, That this committee will attend
and take part in the funeral obsequies at the
eapital of the State on Thursday next.
The Graml Jury—Judge Atlantic Able
Charge—Violating the State Laws—The
County Builtlings.
Judge Adams, in his c-hgrge yesterday
to the grand jury of the Superior Court,
called particular attention to the import
ance of enforcing the law prohibiting the
sale of liquor to minors, and prohibiting
proprietors of Hilliard saloons allow
ing minors to play billiards in
their establishments, whether for money
or not. In bis charge on the
subject of gambling he sought to impress
upon the minds of the jury that if any
one played for money with dice, checkers
or draughts, dominoes, billiards or cards,
or engaged in any other game or play for
money, he was amenable under the law.
He also called their attention to the con
dition of the jail and court house, and ex
pressed the hope that they would use
their best endeavers to ascertain whether
the jail fund is not already sufficient to
warrant the construction of anew prison,
and to further present what, in their
view, shall additionally lie deemed neces
sary to provide lor the erection of anew
jail", and to secure either an enlargement
or the construction of anew court house
building.
He complimented the last graml jury
on the manner in which they had dis
charged the duties entrusted to them, and
signified the hope that the present body
would be equally faithful and zealous.
The charge of the court was listened to
with marked attention, and was. nearly
an hour in length. It is referred to by
meinlters of the bar and all who heard it
trs one of the ablest utterances ever de
livered ltefore a court In Chatham county.
The Oglethorpe Barracks—New Hotel
Enterprise.
In view of the fact that the order lor the
sale of the Oglethorpe Barracks will prob
ably l>e issued in a lew days by the Secre
tary of War, a number of gentlemen are
taking steps to secure the property, if
possible, for hotel purjtoses. A subscrip
tion I ifet was lieing circulated yesterday
for the purpose of procuring the’names of
those wjio are willing to aid the enter
prise. Quite a number of prominent
names were affixed to this paper, and it is
probable that by noon to-day a sufficient
amount will have lteen pledged for the
purpose.

Remember This.
If you are sick lion Bitters will surely
aid Nature in making you well when all
else fails.
If you are costive or dyspeptic, or are
suffering from any other of the numerous
diseases of the stomach or bowels, it is
vour own fault if you remain ill, for Hop
Bitters are a sovereign remedy in all such
complaints.
If vou are wasting away with any form
of Kidney disease, stop tempting Death
this moment, and turn for a cure to Hop
Bitters.
If you are sick with that terrible sick
ness Nervousness, you will find a “Balm
in Gilead” in tbeuse of Hop Bitters.
If you are a frequenter, or a resident of
a miasmatic distriet, barricade your sys
tem against the scourge of all countries—
malarial, epidemic, bilious, and intermit
tent fevers—by the use of Hop Bitters.
If you have rough, pimply, or sallow
skin, bad breath, pains and aches, and feel
miserable generally, Hop Bitters will give
vou fair skin, rich blood, and sweetest
breath, health, and comiort.
In short they core all Disease of the
Stomach, Bowels, Blood, Liver. Nerves,
Kidneys, Bright’s Disease. SSOO will lie
paid for a case they will not cure or help.
That poor, bedridden, invalid wife, sis
ter, mother, or daughter, can be made the
picture of health, by a few bottles of Hop
Bitters, costing but a trifle. Will you let
them suffer?

Chatham Sunday (school Convention.
The Chatham County Union Sunday
School Convention held their regular
monthly meeting 3londay night at the
First Bryan Baptist Church. Mr. Costor
ably advocated the sending out of Ynis
sionaries to advance the Sunday school
iuterest iu the county. Final action was
deferred to the next meeting. 3lr. Sim
mons, in his remarks on Sunday school
work, said that the present system was a
good one, but the failure was on the ac
count of the Sunday school workers not
performing their part. There were well
pointed remarks made by members of the
convention on the subject, which, on the
whole, attributed failure in Sunday school
effort to the lack of co-operation of the
pastors. After the transaction of other
business 3lr. J. C. Simmons offered the
following resolution, which was unani
mously adopted:
Resolved, That we, the Sunday school
workers of Chatham county iu conven
tion, express this, our heartfelt sorrow,
in common with the good people of
Georgia, iu this hour of profound
grief that has fallen upon our State,
removing from among us by the hand
of Providence a great and wise counsellor
and the official head of our State. Hon. A.
H. Stephens. Although the shock has
caused sorrow, let Georgians remember
that the hand that removed him from
among us is the hand of a kind father,
who does all things well.
A FAIR TEST.
Hether’s Perfect Baking Powder.
The contract for supplying the United
States Government with seventy-live
thousand (75,000) lbs. of Baking Powder
during the ensuing year has been award
ed to
HECKKR'S PERFECT BAKING POWDER,
it having been tested by Dr. Edward G.
Love, Analytical Chemist for the govern
ment, and recommended by him for its
excellence, aud because it contained a
HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF GAS
t which means that it will make lighter
Bread and Biscuit) than either the “Roy
al” or any of the other cream-tartar bak
ing powders which he examined. The
samples analyzed by Dr. Love were fur
nished by the’Governiueut Commissioners,
and were without tbe manufacturers’ la
bel o m ime, and designated with a num
ber known only to the Commissioners.
It will thus be seen that when Hecker’s
Perfect Baking Powder is submitted to
AN IMPARTIAL TEST,
its superiority is acknowledged, and he
popular verdict so emphatically ex
pressed in its favor is fully sustained.

Cases of Fair Dealing in the Desert of
Human Life.
In some cases recently the newspapers
are speakiugof equity ruling where the
law does not give a remedy—especially in
the case of a corporation (corporations are
often soulless). The Louisiana State Lot
tery Company—a lady complained her
ticket (winning one-half ot No. 43,713,
which drew the first prize of $30,000) had
been fraudulently obtained, after litiga
tion the contestants compromised amica
bly, each taking half. A lady residing in
New York city had lost her ticket in the
mail, but on application to 31. A. Dau
phin, President of the Louisiana State
Lottery Company, at New Orleans, La.,
obtained the number, learned it had drawn
SIO,OOO, filed a caveat, proved her right,
aud after a proper delay had her money
paid to her. Such acts make one think
that there" are cases of lair dealing in the
desert of human life.

Hope for Suffering Womaii>-Souie>
thing New Under the Sun.
Bv reason of her peculiar relations, and her
peculiar ailments, woman has lieen compelled
to suffer, not only her own ills, but those aris
ing from the want of knowledge, or of con
sideration on the part of those with whom she
stands connected in the social organization.
The frequent and distressing irregularities
peculiar to her sex have thus lieen aggravated
to a degree which no language can express.
In the mansions of the rich and the hovel of
the poor alike, woman lias lieen the patient
victim of ills unknown to man, and which
none but she could endure—and without a
remedy. But now the hour of her redemption
has come, she need not suffer longer, when she
can find relief in I>r. J. Bradfield’s Female
