THE ATLANTA WEEKLY SUN, EOE THE WEEK ENDING APRTT, 24, 1872.
THE ATLANTA SUN.
FROM THE DAILY edition of
Thursday, April 18th 1872.
Doth of Hon. K. Q. C»b*nl»*«
The community and entire city trere
startled yesterday morning by the an
nouncement of the sudden death of
Judge E. G. Cabaniss, who died in the
morning at 7 o’clock at his residence on
Peachtree street. He had been indis
posed for several days, and on Tuesday
night was quite unwell. Yesterday morn
ing he arose, made his toilet, but sud
denly becoming faint, he returned to bed,
and expired in a few moments. His
death was caused, it is alleged, by curva-
turo of the breast-bone, superinduced
by sedentary life and aggravated by an
attack of pneumonia. His remains were
escorted from his home yesterday by the
entire legal profession of this city and
the Knights Templar,to the Macon train,
which transferred his body to Forsyth
for interment. The remains are attended
by his family, relatives, many acquain
tances, a number of distinguished lawyers
and an escort of Knights Templar. His
death was quite unexpected to all of his
family except one or two, who, with him
self, were apprised of his critical situa
tion, and daily apprehended his decease.
This is indeed a sad bereavement to
the family, a loss to the State, and a mis
fortune to the country. Judge Cabaniss
was universally esteemed as a man of
sterling ability, of unimpeachable integ
rity, of venerable piety, undoubted pat
riotism, and of unblemished character in
every relation in life.
He has, time and again, been honored
with positions of honor, trust and dis
tinction by his county, liis StatS and his
country. Ho was born in Jasper county
in the year 1805, and was consequently
in the 67th year of his age. He entered
the bar in 1821 or 1822, after completing
his course of study in Harvard College.
In 1826 ho was elected Clerk of the
Superior Court of Monroe county, which
position he retained until the year 1851
or 1852. He was likewise Ordinary and
Clerk of the Court of Ordinary for twen
ty-five years. In 1840 he was elected
Clerk of the House of Representatives
in the State Legislature. In 1857 he was
appointed Judge of the Flint Circuit, in
which position he remained until 1861
Daring his administration in this circnit,
and ever since, it has been the boast of
his many friends that he never in a single
instance created any dissatisfaction in de
livering decisions and pronouncing judg
ment. It is also remarkable that fewer
of the decisions delivered daring his four
yearH on the bench were reversed than
during any other period since the Su
preme Court was established.
He was an honored trustee of Mercer
University fora number of years. In
the year 1862 he was elected to the Leg
islature. He was a member of the Con
stitutional Convention of 1865, and, in
the autumn of the same year, was elected
to Congress, but was never permitted to
take his seat. Daring the war he was
Confederate States Tax Collector and
Commissioner for the State of Georgia;
and since the conclusion of that memora
ble struggle, iu which his heart was
enlisted, he was for a long time Chair
man of the Democratic Executive Com
mittee of Georgia. It is the impression
of a number of hi3 friends that he was
also a member of the celebrated State
Rights Convention of 1832. He was a
prominent and honored member of the
Masonic order, and though, we believe,
not a member of any temperance organi
zation, he was an ardent advocate of tern
perance in all its forms.
Early in the year 1S71, Judge Cabaniss
was appointed Auditor of the State Road,
under its present administration. He
immediately moved his family to this
place, where lie has been residing ever
since, quietly discharging the duties of
that office.
In politics, Jndgo Cabaniss was strict
ly Conservative, never violent; ardent,
but nut extreme; resolute andnneompro
raising, but never illiberal. He was a
zealous State Rights advocate, 'and a
steadfast admirer of Governor Tronp,
He was opposed to secession, but never
wavered in his allegiance to his State and
country, and identified himself in the
Southern struggle for independence
throughout the war with his people.
Socially, Judge Cabaniss was somewhat
quiet and reserved, always unobtrusive.
He had the entire confidence of the com
munity where he resided, Forsyth, Mon
roe county. His word was always deemed
a pledge of honor and troth. Ho was
never defeated in his county, though his
party was often unsuccessful.
His intelligence was of a superior
order, marked with accurate and mature
judgment, vivid and ready perception
and penetrating discrimination,character
istics which eminently fitted him for lxis
profession. He was a fine classical scholar
never allowing the calls of his profession
to interfere with studies which were con- \
genial to iiis tastes. He assisted personal
ly in the education of all his children, of
whom there were nine. He was patient,
forbearing and long-suffering, never
communicating his sufferings or embar
rassments to his family. Ho was perse
vering and industrious, always and in
variably attending personally to all busi
ness in which he was concerned, or with
which be had been commissioned by
others.
Judge Cabaniss was a strict member pf
the Baptist Clinrcb, having connected
himself with that denomination in the
year 1836 or 1837. He was pronounced
a man of noble piety, and high-toned and
uncompromising in his spiritual devotion.
He was conscious of approaching death,
though in the kindness of his heart he
concealed the fact from hi« family.
The following extract, touchingly sig
nificant of the approaching dissolution
and the final triumph, was found in his
memorandum book, and was doubtless
the last writing he ever did:
From the Griffin Daily New*, 19th inst.
Kfforts of Negroes to Get Into the State
University as Beneficiaries of the Col
lege Land Grant.
“ Life! we’ve been long together,
Through plesssnt end through cloudy weather;
’Tie hsrd to pert, when friends sre dear.
Perhaps ’twill cost a sigh, a tear;
Then steal away, give little warning;
Choose thine own time;
Say not good night, but in some brighter clime
Bid me good morning.'*
He leaves to mourn his untimely loss a
wife and nine children. His oldest
daughter is the wife of Judge - Battle, of
Texas, and the next oldest the wife of
Hon. C. Peeples. He has five sons and
two unmarried daughters.
Distressing.—A private letter from a
gentleman in Thomasville, the 13th
April, says:
‘The people in the flat country be
tween here and Savannah are in absolute
distress on account of the rains, which
are retarding the planting of their
crops. They made very short crops
(many of them none) last year, and the
prospect is gloomy for this.

I hsve the honor to inquire, whether, when the
entire income ot the “Agricultural College Scrip”
wee granted to the State University, at Athens, it
wss understood that the University would mike pro

students?
To the above question the reply was as
follows:

Mb. E. A. Wabb, President Atlanta University,
Atlanta, Go:
Sib—His Excellency, the Governor, directs me to
acknowledge tlie receipt of your letter of the 9th
lnet., and in answer thereto to say that, in granting
the income of the Agricultural Fund to the Univer
sity of Georgia, he carefully refrained from any ac
tion except each as he deemed absolutely necessary
to prevent Hie grant from ceasing under the provi
sions of the act of Congress.
To secure the benefits of the fund to the State, itj
was necessary to organise a College, such as is de-
Oglethorpe County Advertising.
We ask attention this morning to the
notices from the officers of Oglethorpe
county, announcing that hereafter the
advertisements of that county will be
published in The Sun.
This is done because our paper has the
largest circulation of any other paper in
the State, in that county. We are fairly
and honorably entitled to the adver
tising, and for this reason it-has very
properly been given to us.
We return thanks to the officers, and
trust that we shall be able to make the
visits of The Sun to the family circles of
old Oglethorpe welcome and useful.
In many other counties in Georgia
The Sun circulates more largely than any
other paper. The advertising of all such
counties, in justice to the people thereof,
shonld be given to The Sun.

Death or Col. Wingfield.
Col. Junius Wingfield, of Eatonton
diedfin Macon last Saturday. He had
gone to Macon for medical treatment
but was found to be hopelessly ill of a
heart disease. Referring to the subject
of this notice the Macon Telegraph &
Messenger of Sunday says:
He was born in Greensboro, Ga., on
the 30th of November, 1814. After
preliminary course at the Academy, his
education was continued at West Point,
and completed at the University of Geor
gia, graduating in the class of 1835.
After reading law with his brother-in-
law, Senator Wm. O. Dawson, he located
in Eatonton, and there ever since has
lived and reared a largo family of chil
dren, and deservedly enjoyed, in an ex
traordinary degree the love and confi
dence of that community. He was a
profonnd lawyer, and his practice was
extensive and lucrative. Loving retire
ment and domestic life, he fonnd no
charms in public places or political
power. Yet he filled many positions of
honor and trust. In the winter of 1854
and 1855, he was sent to the Senate of
the State, and iu the year 1860 was
elected by the State at large a delegate
to the National Democratic Convention
which met at Charleston. He was for
many years a ruling elder of the Presby
terian Church, of which he was at once
one of the ablest pillars and brightest
ornaments.
Mrs. Margaret J. Preston.
Wo are sure it will gratify Mrs. Mar
garet J. Preston, of Virginia, to be in
formed that H. R. H., the Prince of
Wales, has written us a letter of thanks
for her beautiful poem “ Sandringham,”
republished in The Cosmopolitan.—The
London Cosmopolitan.
In connection with the above it may
interest the many admirers of Mrs. Pres
ton to know that the English Premier,
Mr. Gladstone, on the floor of the House
of Commons,jalluding to the recovery of
the Prince of Wales, spoke of Mrs. Pres
ton’s poem as a beautiful example of
American sympathy,'on the Prince’s be

Diseased Digestion.-
If chronic Indigestion affected the stomach only It
might be more easily borne; bnt It gives rise, Inevi
tably, to many other diseases affecting the liver, the
nerves, the bowels and the brain. Biliousness, ner
vous tremors, constipation, headache and terrible
mental disturbances are among it3 usual accompani
ments. In fact, every organ, every fibre of the
frame sympathizes with toe debilitated and diseased
stomach. What is needed in snch a case? Clearly an
alterative and invigorant; and among medicines of
that class Hostetler's Stomach Bitters is, beyond all
comparison or estimate, the best. Mere purgatives
only deprive the system of the little strength that
disease has left it. Salivants have the Bame effect.
The whole internal organism haa gone wrong, and
can only te put right and kept right by a medicine
in which the tonic and stimulating elements predom
inate, bnt are qualified and modified by anti-bilions
aperients and blood purifying components. Now,
the truth is, and the medical faculty as well' as the
public know the fact, that HoBtetter’s
Bitters contain every ingredient requis
ite for the cure of dyspepsia ’and
all the ailments of body and mind which it in
volves. This has been proved in so many thou
sands of instances that itseema almost idle to repeat
the statement.
The great tonic rallies exhausted nature, from
whatever cause enfeebled, and permanently recruits
the vigor of the nerves, the muscles and the brain,
Its effect upon the brain is to give strength to the
will and precision to the judgment, and to banish
despondency and that infirmity of purpose which
generally accompanies bodily weakness.
