On tin* 18th iu-t. tlu- citizens 01 Atlanta
were greatly shocked upon hearing that
Rev. Dr. Wilson had beet stricken with
paralysis cu that mornimr- The an
nouncement met expressions of sorrow
and regret from every lip. This veu*-ra-
blofath.rin Israel wn universally be
loved wherever known. He had walked
before his peopl. and the world with a
rectitude of chnstian conduct and de
portment that had won veneration from
all hearts. The truth is, his life was so
blameless that none could tLink of him
except us a true man of Ood, whose
whole soul was cd grossed with Lis Mas
ter’s work. It is not strange, then, that
these people, who hail known so long,
should become sud in learning ot his
being so mddeidy strick* n down, When
the announcement was ma .e npon our
streets yesterday morning that this ven
erable man of Clod hail breathed his last
and gone to his rest, sadness sat upon
every countenance who knew him and
his good works.
Itev. John tiimpson Wilson, D. D.,
was born in Pendleton District, 8. C., on
the 4th day ot January, 1796, where be
resided with his parents until 18 1,
during which year his parents moved to
Missouri. Owing totue ill health of his
mother, hie lather determined to return
to South Carolina, but stopped in Hall
connty, Gn. t where he resided until
the death of both of 1 is parents.
Dr. Wilson received hi* classical eclu
cation under the tutorship oi the cele
brated Dr. Moses Waddell, ut Varennes,
8. C.; his theological studies were con
ducted under the supervision cf Rev
Thomas Cnarlton Henry. D. D., at Co
lumbia, 8. C. He was licensed to preach
Oct. 3, 1819, and preached his first ser
mon ut Fairview Church in Pendleton
He removed a short time afterwards,
Ruckersvihe, Elbert county, Ga., where
he taught, school until 1824. in the mean
time supplying destitute churches. This
year ho removed to Luwrenceville. Ga.
where lie organized a church in Uwin
nett county, which he called “Fairview
after the first church he preached in
He begun his ministrations m tins
church of eleven members with a stipend
of only $125 a year, and continued the
pastor lor twenty years, at tfao end of
this time he bad a membership of three
hundred.
In 1840 he arrived in Decatur on his
forty-eighth birthday, and organized
the church in that towu. Hero lie lived
with nis family until 1859. He hud for
several years previously served the First
Presbyterian ChurcU in this city. Dur
ing tuat year be removed to Ailunta
wtiere he remained until his death. He
was the first man who preached here
when the place was kuown as “Telmi
nus.”
Dr. Wilson was a man of great men
tal alelities. His mode of thought ana
expression were characterized wiin gnut
ti rsi iiehs as well as comprehensiveness.
As a pulpit orator he had the power of
impr. rsiug his audience with the pro
found logic oi his arguments. Clear and
concise in the expression of his views, he
carried conviction to the hearts of all as
to the confidence he had in his position.
Dr. Wi:sou was stricken, as we have
said, on the morning of the 18th, as he
was rising from his bed, with paralysis.
He was able to converse wilh his family
and friends so as tube understood until
Wednesday evening, and he was iutiomd
up to the time of his death yesterday
morning, ut 15 minutes past 10 o'clock,
when ho expired to the great regret of
all who knew him, aged 77 years 2 months
and 23 days.
Thus has passed away a good and holy
man. The Just words he was ever hi ard
to litter, beckoning to a relative stand
ing by bis bed side that ho wished to
speak, were: “I am happy; meet me in
heuven !” Thus proving his trust and
confidence in the premises of his Re
deemer, promises :nat he had so long

An Aliania .Man Hoped In.
The Baltimore 8nn, of last Monday,
states that among the passeugeis who
arrived at Camden statioD, on Saturday
afternoon, from the 8onth, was Wm. A.
Peete, a resident <% Atlanta, Ga. Hav
ing a few moments to sp' re at the station
before the through New York cars started
for the President street depot, Mr. Peete
accepted an invitation from a man who
gave his name as Martin—who madetha
acquaintance oi the Georgian on the
cars, ana who also was eu route for New
York—to take a short walk up Howard
street. When near Lombaid street the
conpie were met by a third party, who
was extremely glad to meet with Mr.
Martin, as “those goods were all packed
but could not be removed from the store
until $75 had been paid upon them.
Mr. Martin expressed great sorrow that
his money was all in gold pieces, but
pi roaps Mr, Peete could loan him the
375; if so it would be returned w'uth Mr.
Martin went back to the depot, as his
wif- had several thousaads in greenbacks
in her keeping. Mr. Peete was but too
glad to accommodate his genial acquain
tance, but in half an hour atterwards he
discovered that Mr. Martin was a swm-
dltr, who had swindled him and escaped.

Thf. Atlanta Medical and Surgical
Journal.—The March number of tnis
valuable publication has just been laid
npon our table. It presents an m-
tererestiug table of contents. The
able article by Dr. V. H. Taliaferro, on
“The Corset in its Relatiou to Uterine
Diseases,” ought to be read by every
mother and woman in the land. This
article is illustrated so as to show the
great deformity of the female form by
the use of the corset, which has caused
so much fluttering among our modern
fashionable women, and we may say
among almost all classes of onr female
population. It is a great pity that women
stionld persist in the use of an article of
dress to distort the symmetrical forms
Nature has given them to tue whims of
fashion, and thus ruin their health and
go to an early grave.
Fathers and mothers would do well to
purchase u copy of the March number ot
the Journal, and read Dr. Taliaferro’s
art.cle, thai they may see more clearly
the uutv they owe to their daughters for
the sake of lutnre humanity, if nothing
else.

The lii.hup or Savannah
The telegraph ha* already informed us
that the Redemptorist Fatner Gross has
been appointed as the Bishop to succeed
Bishop Persieo, who, on account of iil
health, I ns been removed to the We»
Indies. The bud naming Rr. Rev. Wil
bum H. Gross as the Bishop of Savannah
has not neon delivered to him. It
Vt ry probable, says the Freema- ’s J.iur
ual ot the 22d, as Father Gross is a mem
tur ot a rt gular congiegatiou of nus

rule, liable to be Changed any day, tbut
the Bulls in his can have been forwarded
to the Most Rev Dr. Barley, as Metro,
politan of the Province, to which tue
Diocese of Sivanuah belongs.
Bv custom of i he Catholic Chnrcb, the
consecration of a Bishop is performed by
the Metropi litau of the Province, or by
some Bishop designated by him, and
mu t take place in the Church of the
Metropolitan, except by concession to
the latter. Bishop Gross, no doubt, for
this reason, will be ordained at tue
cathedral 111 his native city oi Baltimore,
in the vaults beneath which several oi
his ancestors are buried.
the mves'igation has shown that the
Southern loyalist has nrawn more than
thirty-six thousand dollars for thirteen
days’ service as member ol the Forty-

The Bullock Legislature of 1870 elected
him a S» uator for the term ending March
4th, 1871, and he was elected in Decem
ber, 1870, a member of the House for
»be session expiring March 4?b, 1871,
and also for the Forty-second Congress.
The Senate retused to admit him, but
voted him six thousand dollars to defray
his expenses in contesting the seat. He
took his seat in 'he House thirteen days
before adjournment, and drew ten thou
sand dollars for one year’s salary as
Senator and for one year’s salary as Rep
resentative. Under Beast Bath r’s reso
lution, passed at the close of tue last
session, Whiteley, G- neral Young auil
the older Georgia members received a
gratuity of tire thousand dollars each lor

He got ten thousand dollars as a member

Ccrrbru spinal Meningitis.
The following extract from a letter
written by a physician of long experi
ence and practice, may be read with in
tere6t and profit Speaking oi the dis
ease known as ceieoro spinal meningitis,
he writer says:
Having had abundant opportunities of
witnessing this disease m all its lorms, I
can speak advisedly concerning some ol
the questions which now agitate our citi
zens. It is not contagions; it is not con
nued to those who live in crowded tone
ments, who are poorly fed, or wnere the
atmosphere would appear to be impure.
Oq the contrary, a large proportion of
the cases which have fallen under my
observation were in families who were
surrounded by all the comforts cf lifi
As au answer to the statement that it is
caused by decaying au’inal and vegetable
m itter, it is proper to bay that, so far as
I have observed, it has prevailed mostly
in cold winter weather, when the above
causes are mostly suspended. Many of
tne-eter“ and fatal cases were in per
sons who, up to the time of the attack,
enjoyed the most robust health and com
fortable surroundings. The disease is
veiy fatal, it is true, but need not creutt
a panic. Every one should carefully ob
serve the laws of health as far as poss bie,
and go quietly forward without excite
ment. The cause is asyet unknown, ami
probably mverwillbe. Early treatment
should be adopted. I would suggest the
u-e of prephyais.
Caution.—Farmers, and people gener
ally from the rural districts, should be
cautu ned against hitching their horses
to shade trees and tree boxes, thereby,
not only damaging the owners of prop
erty, but destroying the beanty and m:i
formity in planting on some of our most
popular thoroughfares. The people of
Atlanta feel the necessity of the genial
shade in the hot season, and have just
now cultivated a taste for planting ;u
front of their residences, which diuuid
be encou-aged by the protection of the
proper authorities.

A Great Cube of Rheumatism, Dys
pepsia, Disease of the Liver and
spleen, by Dr. Jones.—I came to Dr.
Jones upon crutebts, having been afflic
ted four vears with rheumatism aud dis
ease of the liver, and enlarged spleen.
Having been treated and given up by
our best doctors as a hopeless case, and
was reduced to a anfleriug skeleton—was
scarcely able to nr vo in my I ed pait of
the time. I had tne dyspepsia, als and
could not ear, sleep, uur walk, uuu sul
fered intensely day and night. When ]
was placed upon the cars to go to Dr.
Jones, my neigiioors said I outil i never
return a.ive; bat iu tLree weeks I re
turned a sound tna., > ml have attended
to business ever since. And i I T Jones
I owe my life. I advise the tlfl c.ed to
spend no time nor money with auy other
treatment, if they are within reach of Dr.
Junes. I live at Marioc, Perry county,
Alabama. R. H. Weirh.
Science nnd Skill.
The researches of scientific men. is the
last few years,, nave Drought to light
many facts in relation to the treatment
of diseases, which heretofore were often
considered incurable, that now render it
comparatively easy to afford relief and
overcome the most obstinate. Wtiil*-
science and skill have uone their part
well, an obstacle continued to remain in
the way of those who were so unfortunate
a i to be efflictei.. Tney either lacked
tne means or the opportunity to avail
themselves of what science coaid do for
them. This obstacle, in a measure, has
and I and my wife botu taw somewhat been removed by the oppor
tune visit of Dr. J. A. Jones to onr city
aud State. Persons recognizing this
tact *re daily coming from near and far
in order ut receive treatmi nt at his hands.
For the past few days: his office has been
more thin u&uaky crowned with
patients who are being treated by me;

“ THE IMMORTAL PHILOSOPHER J. N.
But had J. N.’s philosophic eye
passed our own unnoticed by, his noto- •
rious initials bliould have been spared a
place in these columns. But he noticed
ns aud, lik- brother greeting brother in
a foreign laud, did he rnMi frantically
forward ami greet, calling by annul this
child of the Sun. From tliut moment to
the last of our ride Charleston-ward, we
w«re an object of critical examination for
nir fellow-passengers. It was in vain that
we endeavored to give the philosopher
ilie shake.” He wouldn’t shake and
the passen-i rs enjoyed it—all the passen
gers except ourself. Aud to add Io tho
general darkness of < ur look ahead, J.
N., was going to Charleston, and wo felt
assured that wo were the ouly
friend” (?) he would have there, and
that the cons qneuta s ou this being line,
would necessarily be most blighting
upon our serious intentions upon that
city.
But thanks to a kind Providence and
the editor oi the Aloany News, whom J.
N., was anxious to virit on some busi
ness relative to the publication of that
letter to Gr nt, he leit for Savannah tht
same night, his railroad hire to which
city he was made to p-y, which fact we
set down light here to The credit of the
conductor who collected it.
