The death of this gentleman is a severe loss to the coinmtiiifly. to his profession and tti hi* friends. Dr. Harris was horn and rai««d in Wilkes ciuiitry. Georgia w-heni he was distinguished (luring his vonth ami early mauhood for his bright Intellect, sterling moral qualities and ge nial aft-el innate manners, which endeared him to a huge circle rtf ncquaintaitccs. He early moved to Mansfield Parish. i,a.. having foamed n most retliwibhl lady of Mississippi, ilia invested qqitc a hand some fortune ip Louisiana, w liich was en tirely swept away hy the mislortitm l * of war. A few Years since, tie Settled (h the eastern part of this county, near Pickens Station, w here Ids damn lea* energy, high professional skill, ;md excellent qua lines of heart had already given him the floe social position Which lie has always en joyed W heruVfcr known. Hu "a* an acqui sition to community, nn oniamOpt to any profession. His life presents one of those peculiar fates, that cxeltb the sympathy and admi ration of all good men. For years he had i attied most imin folly against a series of reverse* for which he was in no way re sponsible. With victory al) I success at last in sight, lie was suddenly called to follow a heloVml and beautiful little daughter, who had preceded him to the land of rest juat two months. Hu was about thirty-eight years old, and leaves Iwl’ind a feehle and afflicted widow and four orphan children to mourn the loss of their good husband and fuller. They truly deserve the deep sympathy of the community. G. A. Papers at Washington, On., and Mans field, 1.a., please copy. The teternm ol Ihe Mcxlun War.
