IS MEJIORIAM.
Departed this life, Jane 27th, at his residence in
I*i8ga county, Jeremiah A. Tharp. Ho was bom
oo the let of October, 1793, and had reached his
Wth year of ago. Ho Joined tho Stone Croek Bap-
tiit Church, August 2G, 1820, of which his father and
brother were continous pastors 45 years. Ho was
eriained deacon July 31tb, 1832, that office he con
tinued to adorn till the day of Ills death. As deacon
be wie ready, prompt, punctual, and faithfnl. In
ite duties he “purchased to himself a good degree
ml great boldness in the faith.” He was peculiar-
It iliitmgniehod as a good man. No one who ever
bew him entertained a doubt of his excellent
Christian character. He was modest, but entortain-
He never indulged in evil speaking; but ever
at
attempted to throw the mantle of charity over the
faults of others. During a part of his life, he suf
fered many bodily afflictions, had buried two wives,
and had other domestic afflictions; but be boro
them all with remarkable patience and fortitudo.
Job in these afflictions was scarcely a better man;
tor like him “he sinned not, nor charged God fool-
j-Ur.' He believed in the special Providence of
God. saw the band that afflictod, and the chastise
ment produced in him the “peaceable fruit of
righteousness.” Ho was a man of great faith.—
Though never possessed of a very vigorous consti
tution he observed tho laws of health, and lived to
a good old age. He was a successful planter, yet
be did not think that the end of a man’s being was
to accumulate riches, but he regarded money as
a blessing when properly used. He was eminently
a good man, and presented to his children, and the
world the force of a good example, the fire of devo
tion burned not with flickering rays, but kept his
lamp well filled, and tho wick well trimmed, waiting
for the coming of tbo bridegroom. As a man ho
waa prompt and honest in bis dealings with others,
icrapulouslyfulfflling every promise made to a f rend.
In laa last illness ho suffered much, very much;
but bore all with remarkable patience and fortitude,
while he did not murmer against God, he “longed
to depart, and bo with Christ.” At length tho day
of bis triumph came, and he passed over tho river,
and now rests, “for there remaineth a rest for the
people of God.” How comforting to the Christian to
new such a modest childlike faith, as was shown
forth in this Christian man in his death-bed ago
nies. Ho leaves a numerous family of children
and grandchildren behind him, but they sorrow not
•a without hope, for he was a righteous man.
“How bleat the righteous when he dies.”
OBITUARY.
Died at tho residence of his eon, W. T. West
brook. Esq., Macon county, Georgia, Mr. Richard
5. IT Esin rook, Sr., aged eixty years seven months
•ad nineteen days. He was bom in North Carolina,
but bis parents emigrating dnriDg his youth to
Twiggs county in this State, he subsequenly mar-
tied and moved to Houston county in 1835. He
here, by untiring energy and suavity of manner,
both of wbicb characteristics marked him through
life, accumulated a handsome competence and se
cured tho devotion and friendship of many loyal
bunts. In 1845 be unfortuately received a fall
from bis horse, which connected with tho Iobb of a
devoted wife in 1848, caused reason to sustain a
blow from which ho never'recovered, and which
threw a gloom over tho hearts of his devoted cbil
dren and blighted all the bright hopes and high as
pirations which filled his noble bosom in former
days. By this melancholy occurrence the old home
stead which he loved so well was broken up. Yet
he never, up to the latest hour of life, lost sight of
his affectionato family's welfare, and during the
hours of temporary lucidness of mind tho writer
has often heard him inciting his children to deeds
of honor, truth and virtue, by paternal advice.
Adieu, dear friend, though tho hand of affection
could, not relievo thy mental anguish in declining
years, nor can tho voice of filial love awake thee
from thy peaceful slumbers; y etwo will never forget
emulate tby manly virtues and hope to meet tbee to
in the climes of unfading happiness beyond the
tomb:—
"Hopo looks beyond tho bounds of time,
When what wo now deplore ...
SbaU rise in lull immortal prime,
And bloom to fads no more.”

armed of our European countries, but other
countries as valiant as this have not been able
to resist your valor. It will be the same to-day.
‘The war which now commences will be
long and hardly contested--for its theatre will
be places hedged with obstacles and thiok with
fortresses; bnt nothing is beyond the perse
vering efforts of the soldiers of Africa, Italy,
and Mexico. You will prove once more what
a French army is able to accomplish—animated
by the sentiment of duty—maintained by disci
pline—influenced by love of country.
“Whatever road we may take across our fron
tiers, we will find upon it glorious traces of our
fathers, and we will show ourselves worthy of
them. All France follows you with confident
prayers, and the eyes of the universe are upon
you. Upon our success depends the fate of
liberty and civilization. Soldiers, let each one
do his duty and the God of battles will bo
with us. Napoleon.

The Bullion circular says, after the spasmodic
rise, silver is now without buyers.
Many rumors are afloat about movements of
tho army and arrests, but the French and Prus
sian accounts of events already transpired show
them to be utterly unreliable.
The Java has arrived.
Vienna, July 301—Austria will establish a
line of steamers from Tineste to Southampton,
to connect with American lines.
Paris, July 30.—The Journal Official denies
the invasion of Luxemburg by the French.
Senator Geiger, owner of large factories near
Saar Louis, has been expelled from Prussia.
Bonville has left Rome on a furlough. It is
believed that the troops now in Rome will be in
Paris by the 10th of August.
The French journals assert that the Prussians
have three hnndred thousand men at Treves,
one hundred thousand in the Black Forest, two
hundred thousand near Mainz, one hnndred
thousand in Schlissing, and eighty thousand
near Berlin.
The country between Treves and Mainz is
well filled with soldiers.
Windsor, July 30.—GeD. O’Neill has been
sentenced to two years imprisonment and $10,-
000; Capt. John Brown, nine months imprison
ment and $5000; Capt. Maynahan, six months
imprisonment and $1000.
Paris, July 30.—The Journal Official, this
morning, published Count Benedetti’s explana
tion of the secret treaty affair. It is well known
that Count Von Bismarck made France an offer
both before and after the war with Austria.—
The substance of this offer was that France
should take Belgium as compensation for the
aggrandizement of Prussia.
Tho Emperor, in all cases, declined the prop
osition. The very moment the treaty of Prague
was concluded. Bismarck again betrayed his de
sire to restore the equilibrium, and make propo
sals for combinations affecting tho integrity of
States bordering on France. Daring one of
these conversations Count Von Bismarck dictat
ed to Count Benedetti this secret treaty projeot
which has just been made public, and whioh
Count Von Bismarck has kept ever since.
This acconnts for the handwriting of Bene
ditti, who gave notice of the contents of the
proposed treaty to the Emperor’s Government
at that time, bnt the proposition wa3 promptly
rejected. Benedetti adds that the King of
Prussia was not favorable to Count Von Bis
marck’s plans.
To-day the Emperor assumed commandership
in chief of the army. He has been hard at
work to-day with Gen. Leboeuf, arranging the
necessary detials.
The Prince Imperial visited the camps to
day, and was received with great enthusiasm—
The health of the army is perfect.
There has been no serious engagement yet.
Rumors to the contrary are false.
It is reported on the best authority, - that - the
recent mission to Vienna was a complete success.
Austria will not take umbrage , at the presence
of Italians in Rome,' and will remain-in accord
with Italy..

This valuable Family Medicine has been widely and

upwards of
THIRTY YEARS.
It has lost none of its good name by repeated tri
als, but continues to occnpy a prominent position in
every family msdicine cneat.
It id an external and internal remedy. For Som
mer complaint or any other form of bowel disease
in children or adults, it is an almost certain cure,
and has without doubt, been more successful in cor
ing the various kinds of CHOLERA than any other
known remedy, or the most, skillful physician. In
India. Africa and China, where this dreadful disease
is more or less prevalent, the Fain Killer is consid
ered by tho natives, as well as European residents
in those climates, a sure remedy; and while it is a
most efficient remedy for pain, it is a perfectly safe
medicine, even in unskillful hands. Directions ac
