For a men as unpopular as he is

influence over legislation.
The election for Mayor and
Aldermen takes place in Atlanta
to day Wednesday. Among the
candidates for Mayor is our former
townsman, Mr. Jno. 11. treats,
whose plan for running a munici
pal government without taxation
he has lately disclosed to the pub
lie. in a nut shell it is briefly
this : For thoso who own proper
ty in the city to insure it with the
city government, thus placing in
tho city treasury a fund sufficient
to run the government, which now
goes to foreign corporations. 'This
would undoubtedly be a magnifici
ont plan, if there was any author
ity in Georgia to make ono insure
iiis preperty, when an ! in what
way a board of Aldermen should
dictate.— However, this is a matter
of no special interest to our read
ers. We only allude to it on ac
count of the fact that this financial
feature in municipal government,
is a novel one, and proposed by
ono who is kindly reroutnbered by
the people of Greene county,
—The resolution before the Leg
islature to accept Gov. Brown’s
offer to donate to the State Univer
sity 8,30 000 on certain conditions
was defeated in the iToose on Mon
day last by a vote of 94 to 44.
As we understand the terms upon
which Senator Brown mads this
offer, we believe its rejection by
the representatives of the people
was eminsetly proper. Among
the conditiens of tho gift was re
served the power in the Brown
family of directing four of the
scholarships, amounting anually to
8800, ami of instituting inquiry
into the couits in reference to
proper disposition of the fund. Its
provisions in short give to private
citizen*—roomhers of th Brown
family —very decided power and
influence in the management and
control of a very important State
institution. An acceptance of the
donation on tits conditions speci
fied would look on the one hand
too much liko the State’s bartering
awav a portion of its prerogatives
tea private citizen for his money ;
nnd on the other, a citizen purchas
ing from the State power and in
fluence with his means. We are
inclined to think that the ex-Gov
ernor has enough of these comrnod
tties considering his record at cer
tain times in the past We do not
mean to charge Gov. Brown with
improper motives in making the
donation. We can know nothing
of (mother's motives in suoh a case.
Nor do we mean to contend that
one who offers a gift has not the
rig lit .o dictate terms upon which
it shall be accepted. Ff'liile this
is true, the proposed donee has u
right to reject the offering ; and
should do so if it compromises
either his dignity or power for

Washington, Dec. 3rd.
Tho eves of the country is on to more
turned toward Washington. Congress is
to uieet tomorrow The session will
!a-t three months to n day. hut will be
one of the nm-t inipnrtan' ever held
The rpeent elections have placed both
parties in anew a'litude. The Repub
licans will trv to uc to the best advan
tage the remnant nf their days of pow
er. They will he anxious to work re
forms which they would not have coun
tenanced when in the confident poses
sion of both !iucs last 'session. The
Democrats will necessarily feel that
(heir conduct is closely scrutinized by
the o Mintrv. as the gorernment will
according lo every indication, soon he
in their control. Besides ibis there
are some questions of g-ave importance
coming up during the session.
Tho Tariff commission after a luxu
riant circuit of the country will have
something in the way of a report to
make to the country through Congress.
From their voluminous information
very little practical effect is likely to
come, and finally the revision of the
tariff will have to begin anil end in
Congress. The sense of the men who
apposed the commission, is becoming
more apparent since the experiment
has been made. From the first, the
country has had no confidence in this
extraordinary procedure, and the quick
er the cle er gen'lemen composing the
emiiurssion are relieved, the better it
will he for legi-lation as well as for the.
treasury. That tho present iniquitous
tariff must be severely reformed, is now
apparent even to those whom it benefits
most. Tho monopolists will be glad to
see their friends, tho Republicans take
ho’d of the question, so that the reme
dy will not be left to a Democratic
Congress.
The Internal Revenue System will
surely be handled without mercy. The
bill that passed in the House a'ud flail
ed iu the Senate last session, will by
no means satisfy the demands of the
country for a deep anil genuine exami
nation into this nutter. We don’t
want relief from the tax on bank checks
and patent medicines, hut tho great
burden of the tax on tobacco aud whis
key, and tho hardships imposed by the
methods of its collection, is what the
masses expect to sec Congress attend
to. The Georgia delegation have all
arrived except Mr. Black, who is still
so far disabled from his terrible parsl
ysis ce IftU winter as to bo unable to
attend this session.
Tomorrow Mr. Dope Barrow will be
sworn iu as the successor of Senator
Hill, and Mr. Becsc will take Mr.
Stephens plaoa in the house The two
mo*st distinguished figures Gcergia had
in Congress last winter, have b<en re
moved, one by tho call of tho people
to high service at home, and tho other
after long and pathetic suffering to the
peace of death . Two such men will
hardly noroe from any other State dur
ing this generation.
To Washington the meeting of Con
gress every year is more aud moro of
event. People gather here from every
part of the country. They oome for
all purposes, impelled by all motives,
fiom the shrewd lobyist with his cor
rupt scheme to tho idia visitor who
merely want- to kno v what i- going
on, an 1 the giddy school giii fresh in
the world of fashion and folly. The
winter ha* opened here with unusual
gravity. Tho short session will be
interesting if not stormy, and for tbe
next three months, the beautiful city on
tho Potomac will play a very prominent
part in nor national affair- F. II B.

The subject of this sketch was born in
Ribert County, G;r, Pee. lfi, 1828; be was
son of Rev. anil Mrs. John Harris, grad
uate.l with honor at Mercer University in
1850, was married the following December
lo Miss Samantha A. Johnson, daughter of
William 15. and Betsy Johnson, graduated
with distinction at the Medical College of
Augusta, Ga., in March 1856. Was mar
ried to Miss Fannie Johnson, a cousin oi
ids former idolized wife, on the 14th of the
following October, and died in Greencsboro
Ga., October 21, 1882.
All human lives are brief, they are all in
common symbolized by things that do not
abide; but some are like one short-lived
thing, and some like another. Some re
mind us of the loaf: it is a bud—a leaf
! verdant and fresh it flutters gayly in the
Spring air, it hangs motionless a few days
in the summer hot stillness, the autumn
makes it “Scar and yellow, ’’ the nmarni ig
winds lay it gently to the ground where it
lies ‘senseless and deud,” ami God points
to it and whispers through autumn’s mourn
ful lips, ‘‘ye fade as the leaf!’ Other
lives remind is of (ha fruit that ripens in
a few short days, and of its very ripeness
i falls, and some there arc, so mind-lit, thov
I seem to ns like the brief bright fall of “a
tailing star.’’ We . muot look upon the
life that has just closed, without seeing
that its course is marked by the divine
lustre of a splendid infe'icot, nor place the
hand of memory upon that life without
feeling the full, warm throb, of a great and
I gentle heart. When we think of him that’s
gone, these two characteris;ics are the first
i to present themselves —that mind with the
twinkle of !• diamond thought, that big
heart with thegeoiie beating of its “golden
blood”—they rise side by side before , us,
the or.e to * receive our admiration; the
other to win our love. These nre the great
twin virtues of his character and life, and
are parental to all that is brilliant and no
ble in his history : but his characteristics
will appear, as we briefly view him in the
different relations nflife.
After his graduation at Mercer, lie for
several veers taught a school at Peufield
fin., then the sent of that institution, which
answered as preparatory to tbe collegiate
course, lie occasionally afterwards engag
el in this high railing, and was unsurpass
ed as an educator, lie possessed in a high
degree the qualification for an instructor;
he knew how lo impart knowledge, But
reaching was not the profession he had cho
sen, and his choice, winch was Medicine,
has often seemed stnango lo ns. A man
posessed of the matchless gift of oratory,
having that peculiar mental constitution,
and tlint nervous piiyaical force, which go
with and forms part of it, generally chooses
a vocation in whirh these powers are prac
tically called forth and developed ; lie usu
ally feels dissati fled unless he can ipeak to
that great audieace—the pcopde. Dr.
Harris wan a natural orator, and although
his profession led him out of public eeenes.
lie was, through life, frequently called to
address the people at which times, under
the inspiration which only an orator can
feel, the flash of his eye, the eloquent tre
mor in the ring of his voice, the superb
bearing of his wlio’e frame, and his burn
ing thoughts and horning words, would
impress any audience, that lie was born
“listening senates to command!” By
choice, however, his field of labor was a
more obscure though net less useful and
noble one. Having determined upon this
eourse, bo graduated as above stated at the
Medical College of Augusta, Ga., deliver
ng the valedictory of his class, a speech
characteristic of the mind and heart of the
man who made it. He began the practice
of medicine in TVnfield. Ga., where he con
tinued it until 1370 when lie removed to
Greene.-boYo’ Ga, continuing there the
practice Of his profession till his death.
And herein was his transcendent success
—he stood at the head of hi- profession
In no case where he mot the highest medi
cal tnlent of the state (and the cases were
not few,) was he ever proven to have a
superior. liis friends could hardly wish
his record as a physician more brilliant
than it is
He was a mac of a great deal of individ
uality of charactor, anil this is prominent
ly seen in some of his characteristics as a
dootor. There was sometimes a frank con
fession of ignorance, that would have sur
prised a stranger - to the question (after a
thorough examination) Dr. what is the
mitter with me? wo have so often ’heard
him reply (always when it was true)
•‘Well sir, 1 don’t know.” There was no
sham about him; ho never pretended to
know what he didn’t know, nor to he what
lie wasn’t.
There was a magnanimity about him to
ward his professional brethren, an unsel
fish and unenvious spirit, that was just
beautiful. We believe him to have been
a man absolutely incapable of envy and of
anything little or mean. Another thing
characteristic of him as a doctor, was his
love for liis patients—it was touching to
see the affectionate concern be manifested
for them; it was touching to see the smile
an 1 the gladdened heart with which he
noted the first appearance of returning
health and safety, and it was touching to
see him after lie had exhausted his skill,
hail'! them with many tears to the grave.
We have known him sit with his devoted
family- around him at his own fireside, and
tell of his hard fight with disease, liow it
had baffled all his effoits, and weep over
the loss of his patient as if it had been the
loss of his child. In return his patients
loved him, and many, many are they who
are sad to know that through the long wea
ry days of sickness liis cheerful presence
will fall no more like a sunbeam cross the
sick room, and his warm and gentle
hand, feel there pulses “no more 1”
Ah 1 after nil, he made no mistake
in the choice of his profession. It was
Doctor Harris that was a grand man,
and it is at the bedside of tbs sick and
tho dying that we would have his pho
tograph ; here, more than anywhere,
was he his own, true, noble self; hero
shone the soft clear lustre nf the con
stellation of his virtues, here did they
meet and blend their rays in an elec*
trie light!
liis I’riendshifs were sir ng, a- wero
a’so his dislikes, though not malignant.
He was a true, sincere friend, and in
capable of denying any friend any ser
vice in hispowep. And he was a friend
to the suffering wherever he found
them, with a friendship that reached
into his “heart of hearts," and into his
pocket, too.
Asa citizen, he was a patriot, pos
sessed of the spirit of liberty ; he had
decided political views, which he es
poused earnestly and declared (earless
-Iv, hut never entered the public arena
as a politician, aud never sought an
office.
Asa husbanJ and father he was dc
voted, indulgent and kind, and has rc
ceired ilia everlasting love, of his wife
and childri n. Ifis grave will be to
them the place, where love and violets
and tears shall uiake their sweet com
panionship, and each of a thousand
memories that come thronging from
the past, so sad aod yet o sweet, will
wear a kind ol second mournin'*—a
suit of sackcloth trimmed in smiles !
Then did this man have no faults?
Oh ! yes, yes indeed ! They were bold
and open like the rest of bis character,
and lamented by himself, and by all
who knew and loved him. We leave
them to tbe mantle of charity, and the
hush ol the tomb. Profit by bis vir
tues, and you who knew him, profit by
hi* faults.
Dr. W. L. M. Harris was one of
“Nature’* Noblemen.’’
