DEATH’S SAD ROLL.
Mia* Aon Austin, who lived near
Austin’s Chap pel, departed this life
lon Thursday lust. She was a most
excellent lady, generous, kind and
charitable, She was a Christian wo
man who feared the Lord ami kept
llis commandments la-ing a consistent
member of the Primitive Baptist
Church for many years. Shu leaves
many friends and dear ones to mourn
her departure.
Wc are pained to record the death
of Miss Ida Nolen, daughter of our
worthy Coroner. Dr. W. 8. Nolen.
She was a lovely young lady, beloved
by ull who knew her, and her death
cast gloom and sorrow over the entire
community. At the time of her de
miec she was just budding into prom
ising young womanhood, being about
1(1 years of age. May fiowui's of beau
ty ever bloom upon her grave.
It is with heart-felt sorrow that we
announce the death of little Hugh,
son of Mr. and Mrs. C. li. White,
of this city, which sad event trans
pired about two o’clock last Monday
morning. Hugh was a bright and
promising little fellow, of sweet and
gentle disposition and a pet and favor
ite withal, who knew him. At the
time of his death he was about one
year old. His sickness lasted only a
week, and all that medical skill and
careful nursing that could he done
was done, hut the Master had decreed
that little Hugh must lie removed
from liis earthly home to a resting
place in that heavenly mansion be
yond the stars ‘‘where the surges cease
to roll.” The sympathies of al! our
people go out to Mr. and Mrs. White
in their hours of sorrow and bereav
ment. The funeral serviceswere con
ducted by Rev. W, H. LeFrade and
a large number of friends were pres
ent to pay a last tribute to the little
boy whose pure soul had winged
its flight from the cares and responsi
bilities of this life to the peaceful joys
and blessings of the life to come. —
“Unveil thy bosom faithful tomb,
Take this new treasure to thy trust,
And give these sacred relics room
To slumber in the dust.
Nor pain, nor grief, nor anxious fear
Invades thy bounds —no mortal woes
Can reach the peaceful sleeper here.
While angels wutdi his soft rejiose."
A SUGGESTIVE LETTER.
Rev. R. T. Adams, colored, of Cov
ington, Ga., writes a long and inter
esting letter to the Atlanta Constitu
tion, from which we take the follow
ing extract, and invite its perusal:—
“I have been a republican all my life
because I thought the best interest of
the colored race was with the republi
can party. But now I see that this
poor old stranded wreck, that is now
run in the interest of the northern
shy locks, is a poor thing for negroes
to invest their interest in. The negro
is disgusted with the republican party
because it has been lying to him for
more than twenty-five years more than
Sampson lied to Delilah. And now
let Harrison with his southern policy
ignore all colored men and build him
self up a party among white men
wherever lie can fi:i 1 one unprincipal
ed and base enough to barter away
principal and political convictions for
spoils and office. For the negro will
revolt and vote solidly against such
an exclusive white man’s republican
party. The negro is a free trader in
polities, ami he is certain in the fu
ture to ho found voting with the par.
ty of tariff reform. The money lords
of the republican party will never be
able to control the colored vote in an
other election.
Any colored man who will disgrace
himself by condescending to stoop so
low as to go to Washington 4© beg
Harrison to recognize the colored men
in the republican party, is unworthy
of his race. Let Harrison aud his
party, and his southern policy all go,
aud let the negro cultivate friendly
relations among the people with whom
tlmy live; for the interest of the two
races in the south are co-related, and
the colored race must either remain
ju Jhe south or else go to the devil.
There is no negro problem here in the
south; you find that seven beaded
beast only in ,th northern newspa
pers, and in the feeble imagination of
many of the would be pbylantliropist
who are scared of a negro a thousand
miles off. * * * ♦
“It is plain to any intelligent mind
who has watched the .trend of north
ern sentiments relative to the negro
that the northern white people are
getting tired of the negro, and that
they are going to ptit hint down, too.
And that is just what Harrison'g re
publican administration in now doing.
The colored vote is ripe for the revolt
and everything indicates that in the
future the colored vote will lie found
to he as solid against the so-called re
publican party as it once has been for
it, for the interest and well-being of
the colored race, especially in the
southern states, demands it.”
While in Atlanta Saturday we call
ed on the treasurer, the comptroller
general, commissioner of agriculture
and other stale officers and it made us
feel proud to know that Georgia had
her affairs in the hands of so worthy,
efficient and accommodating gentle
men. No state in the Union can
boast of more faithful guardians than
t hose to be found in old Georgia.

My Mother has had a cough tor twenty
years, pneumonia leaving her with a bron
chial trouble. Two years ago, her lungs
becoming involved, she became very much
emaciated and lost all strength, being un
der regular treatment ot a physieiun and
taking medicine all hours of the day. 1 his
continued until a year ago when I saw your
advertisement of Dr. Akers English Rem
edy for Consumption and procured a bot
tle, as the tickling in her throat was unre
mitting and so irritating as to make talk
ing impracticable. She was so much re
lieved that, another bottle was procured and
we now buy by the case, she never being
without it. She has 110 physician aud takes
no other medicines. She remarked lately
that if she had not procured it when she
did she would now lie dead.
We have recommended it to others who
always receive benefit from it ll anyone
desiring further particulars will address me
with a stamp 1 will unswer with pleasure,
as I deem it the best cough medicine made.
A trial only is necessary to convince
anyone of its merit. Very Respectfully,
