If wo are any judge of srnatl matters, the mesange dors erd : t to >< author in so far • <*it indicates* hi* thorough fatnil iiritj with the foreign and domes* • ; e relations nf the government.— It is too lengthy, however, for us •a attempt even a (at'sfactory syn opsis of i‘* contents Besides we do not know that the public are very much interested in what A r 'har recommends to Congress For a men as unpopular as he is with the strongest wing of his own partt is not apt to exercise much 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 r yThe I) xter I -rn Sbelier will give - i‘faction.

New Millinery ami Fancy Goods CAPITAL NOTES. A "J? 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. ins, w. !, ti n iKitis 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.’’ ONE WHO KNEW HIM. Announcements, roil SsIIKItIFF.
