SIIOI LI) TO BCHM K TIIKIR
PASSIO.VS.
This is a portion of the lecture delivered
to the Entered Apprentice Mason, hut
nerhaps the initiate at that time, and du
ring all subsequent lime, neglects to lay
that stress upon the subject which is ue
cissary for proper digestion, anti for future
improvement of mind and body.
Is it possible that any thinking naan,
worthy of the benefits of Ancient Free
Masonry, should be influenced to connect
himself with the Masonic fraternity
from the sole desire to possess t lie pass
words signs and other outward designa
tions of the Order? If so, and the mind
of such an one does not materially change
# fter being brought to light, he will he
roine not only a drone in the “great hive
of Masonry,” hut a burden, and perhaps a
disgrace to the brotherhood.
phe principles upon which Aneient
Freemasonry h s been built up, are as
steadfast and enduring as are the “ Ever
lasting Hills.” VV'hat institution erected
ll'v man hasendured for so many centuries
through all the stages of life and govern
ment of nations? Through fierce perse
cutions. Ancient Freemasonry has come
forth as from a tire unscathed, and sought
a perpendicular so suddenly, so easily, so
exactly, and so universally, that the world
has been compelled to look on it with ad
miration, and made to reverence it as an
institution approved of Heaven. Its vota
n~, with the old Jewish Hible in band,
were tiunted through forests, driven into
caverns, yet tlie light of Masonry again
: ,n I again blazed fortii upon tlie altar, and
led its followers through the ruins of an
archy to tlie Temple of Letters, Science
and Religion, where its LKUIT yet shines
most gloriously.
One of the most enduring of the princi
ples upon which tlie altar of Masonry
rests,and which constantly lends its influ
ence to create an incense that in rising
toward Heaven, makes itself seen and felt
throughout ail Hie surroundings, is the
“Subduing Our Passions.”
How much meaning is embraced in
these three words, “Subduing Our Pas
sions?” Jlow much of good; none of
evil ?
The two rilling principles which govern
man are: Reason and Passion; the latter
being dcsiyned to be the servant of the
former.
Reason is tlint superior gift endowed
upon man by bis Maker, its clue ex
ercise brings all earthly things under
his control and elevates him to be the lord
of earl h’s creation ; its misuse often sinks
him into insignificance and debasement
nearly to tin* level of the brute creation.
Reason should regulate tlie workings of
even our best emotions; but its chief exei
cise must tie in the repiession and subju
gation of our evil passions, for if these lie
allowed free course, their progress must
needs lie to destruction.
Ihe Mason is told, to learn to “Subdue
his Passions.” This is a noble work. He
that conquers his passions is greater than
he who conquers a ration. The great un
dertaking needs cureful thought to prop
erly begin.
My Masonic brethren, you are to be de
noted as Free and Accepted Masons by
your conduct, and not merely by out
ward demonstrations of Recognition.
To learn the Ritual and practice the
Manual are very minor points of Ancient
Free Masonry. A practice of the secrets
of our art, alone, must distinguish you
amongst men. These (tan be obtained
only by careful thought, due circumspec
tion, thorough and impartial examination
of self; ever having in view the Golden
Rule, ‘ Doing unto others s«h you would
that they should do uuto you.”
These constitute the foundation for a
possession of hum au virtues, and will en
able the possessor not only to “Subdue his
Passions, but also to hold them iu easy
subjugation. (J.

“Oil! wLiat a world of beauty,
A living heart might plan,
if man would do his duty,
And help Ids fellow man.”
The Georgia Masonic Mutual Life Insu
rance Company lias finely illustrated its
practical working power, by the relief it
lias given to the bereaved families of fifty
neven deceased brethren during the two
years past,, paying one hundred and ninety
three thousand Jive hundred and eiyhty-nine
dollars.
In the State of Georgia we have nearly
twenty thousand Masons—less than one
krth of that number have paid into the
Company the sum above named, llovv
many have died who have not partaken of
its benefits? Perhaps at least two or three
hundred. We hope the mothers, wives and
children of our brethren will give their
nous, husbands, and fathers no rest until
they see that insurance is obtained for all
who are eligible to tbe great benefits thus
within their reach
In looking over the ages of the deceased,
mentioned above, we find 32 years tire
average, thus showing the deaths in the
Company were not all old men. Take
warning, brethren, for—
" Death rides on every passing breeze,
And lurks in every (lower;
V. h Ii season Ims its own disease,
Its perils every hour!”

Masonry is an institution founded upon
and governed by the moral law, and a
violation of the teachings of its code is an
infringement of all that is sacred to the
brotherhood.
Now thegreat principles which morality
teaches,are: Live honestly ; hu t no body;
give every man bis due ; and love and
serve God. A violation theu. of any of
these is contrary to the teachings of the
institution which lives to aid in bringing
about "Friendship, Morality aud Broth
erlyLove.”
Ii not paying a debt when able to pay
and, i- “ ivin j honestly,” i have yet to learn
>o what honesty consists. If not paying
a debt when able 'o pay it, is “hurting no
| have no knowledge of wounds of
this nature. If not paying a debt when
aide to pay it, is' giving to every man his
due, then that which belongs to him is
111 1 rightly his own. If not paying a
1 rht when able to pay it, is “loving and
serving God,” when be lias said it is right
to render to ( iv-mr the tilings that are
liesar’s— He loving that only which is
hght—l have not correctly understood tlie
teachings of my Master. Hence, lie who
refuses to pay his debts when due, violates
ihegreatest principles of the moral Law,
jTtnl with them, in addition, the great
toilets of our order. For if such conduct
produces “Friendship,Morality or Broth
erly Love,” I am blind to all sense of
reason.
-Masons, and all other men, who are
'West, w ill pay their debts if they are
utde. If any who call themselves Masons
[ofuse to meet their just debts, you may
know they are no Masons at heart; and
| tkev ought to be driven from our ranks.

ness, was placed on the stand. At tirst he stated
he did not wish to give evidence, as General Buel
expected more of him than he could tell, and had
this morning threatened him with prosecution and
punishment for perjury if lie did not tell ail he
had stated privately, and, also, that he >vould be
tried for the crime w.tti the balance. He only
recognized a few of the prisoners. Figures shed
tears. The scene created much feeling. His tes
timony was not concluded. One or two more

The trial will last three months.
New York, June 3—Among fourteen hundred
steerage passengers, landed yesterday, from the
steamer Manhattan, were three hundred English

never been reported as part of the debt.
Charles Langsou, colored, has been appointed to
the mission to Liberia
In the case of James Weaver, a citizen of Texas,
tried for murder, convicted aud sentenced to be
hung, by a military commission—the Attorney
Oeueral ims given an opinion, in which he reviews
the reconstruction laws and tlie duties of a com
manding officer, and says : “As the State of Texas
had not in September, of 18(58, and has not siuee,
adopted a constitution in e uformity with the pro
vision of the act of Congress, and has not become
entitled to representation in Congress, the act was
operative in Texas at tlie time the military corn
nrssion was organized for tlie trial of Weaver, and
the commanding General exercised tlie discretion
entrusted to him by tlie third section by deciding
that it was necessary a military commission should
he organized for tiu; trial. If, therefore, the statute
of March 2d, 1867, is a constitutional and valid
statute, it then appears that the jurisdiction of the
said military commission was complete, and that
there is no legal obstacle to the execution of the
sentence.”
The Attorney General maintains that the right of
war did not necessarily terminate with the cessation
of active, actual hostilities, and not until the work
of restoring the relations of peace shall have been
accomplished, can it be so considered. It is for Con
gress to determine when tlie war has so far ended
that tlie work can tie safely and successfully com
pleted. The Attorney General sees no reason in
law for withholding tlie President’s approval of
the findings.
During the argument, tlie Attorney General
says : “ft is obvious that Congress, under the Con
stitution, has no right, in time of peace, to subject
any citizen of a State to trial and punishment by
military power.”
Annapolis, June 4.—The President and family,
accompanied by Creswell, Cox, Hour, other dis
tinguished gentlemen, and a number of ladies,
arrived this morning in the Tallapoosa from Wash
ington. Salutes were lired on their arrival from

New Orleans, June 4.—A sub-marine diver
named Robert Spencer was drowned in tlie Soutli
west Pass to-day, while wrecking the steamship,
Pantheon. The face-glass on his armor broke,
and lie became fouled among tlie timbers, and it
was impossible to haul him up. A man named W.
K. Buck descended twenty-live feet under water,
without armor, and recovered the body.
New York, June 4. —The steamship Moro Cas
tle, just arrived, reports that on the outward trip,

Governor Wi lis, of Virginia, is here.
The following are tlie points which Hoar de
cides affirmalively in his opinion on tlie Weaver
case, viz: Wii tiler tlie General commanding tlie
Fifth Military District had authority to take a man
from tie 1 civil power and try him by military law ;
or, in i tiivr words, whether a military commission
in Texas, in September, 1868, had jurisdiction over
a citiz ii n a iu tlie naval or military service,
charged witli the murder of another citizen, and
under i lu tment and arrest in the State courts
therefor.
Washington, June 7. —Treasurer Spinner lias
dispatches which announce tlie plundering of tlie
United States depository at Santa Fe. L. J. Col
lins. the depositor, was found shot through the
heart. The last statement from the depository
showed nearly a half million to Government’s
credit The depositor, Collins, had been removed,
and tiis successor, who had just arrived, telegraphs
the tragedy.
Tlie President has submitted a series of ques
tions to tlie Attorney General, regarding the polit
ical position of Georgia.
The recent massacre in Kansas is attributed to
-hooting a squaw. Eleven eitizeus are known to
have perished in retaliation.
The Radicals carried tlie election here to-day.
Their opponents made little contest, and the polls
were abandoned to tlie negroes.
Avery serious riot occurred in the Second Ward.
The negroes chased a Conservative black man to a
house, and assailed the house, whose inmates es
caped iu tlie rear. The Conservative found refuge
iu Hie upper story. The police surrounded tlie
house and brought the Conservative down, encir
cled him in a hollow square and took him to tlie
polls, where lie voted. The negroes now became
furious, and threw volleys of stones and fired occa
sional pistols. Tiie Chief of Police, who was hurt
in the arm, ordered the force to fire over tiie mob.
This increased the mob’s violence, when the police
were compelled to fire a volley directly into them,
killing one and wounding th’ree, when the mob
fled.
Earlier in the day a policeman was cut with a
razor, and seriously beaten in the Sixtli Ward. A
free light with sword and airnlos pistol shots oc
curred in the Seventh Ward. In the Second Ward
Julius Wallace, colored, was knocked from a buggy
and beaten for having scratched liis ticket. The
police rescued Wallace, hut was badly battered.
Timothy Rogers was also badly beaten for voting
the citizen’s ticket. Rioting confined entirely to
negroes. The police have behaved well. ’The
negroes show no disposition to niole-t w hites so
far, hut they are drinking freely, which causes
much apprehension for safety during tlie night.
The fear of violence seems subsiding. The
prompt action of the police seems to have subdued
the more violent, while orders to tlie marines to
bold themselves in readiness quiet the fears of tlie
people. It is just to say that no respectable colored
citizens of Washington participated iu or encour
aged the violence.
Atlanta, Ga., June 7.—The Warrenton Clipper,
published iu the town w here the daughter of Sena
tor Adkins lives, pronounces, ou undeniable au
thority, that the letier published iu a Macon paper
and purporting to have beeu writteu by Miss
Adkins, w herein she claims that the murderers of
: Senator Adkins are known, aud that uo effort has
j been made to arrest them, and her appeal to the
| people qf Georgia aud the nation for justice, is a
j laise forgery, gotten up for political purposes.
Every effort is being made by tlie civil aud mili
tary authorities to bring the offenders to justice.
; General Terry has ordered two companies of in -
fantrv to Warrenton, with in-truetions to the com
manding officer to aid the civil authorities in fer
j reting out the murderers.
New York, Juue 7.—lt is reported that a elip

W ashington, June I.—Motley, in replying to
the address of the Liverpool Chamber of Com
merce was very pacific. He deprecated hostilities
between the two countries as adverse to the happi
ness of tlie world, the progress of civilization and
the best hopes of humanity. Motley made a strong
pointof blood alliance between tiie United States
and England. He said his most strenuous efforts
shall be devoted to the furtherance of a good under
standing, on the basis of tnduring friendship and
kindly relations, in accordance with the great
principles of justice and honor, which are the in
evitable and only safe and unerring guides iu the
conduct of nations.
Liverpool, Jnne 1. —The duty on important I
breadstuff's, of one shilling per quarter on grain
and five and a half pence on flour, is abolished.
Hereafter foreign grains and Hour enter British
ports free of duty.
London, June I.—Nearly all the journals have
articles to-day on the presentation addre«s to
Motley, and diseu-s the probable future relations
between Great Britaiu and tlie United States.
The Times, contrasting Sumner's speech in the
Senate with Motley’s language, hopes that the
peaceful character of tlie latter is not such in ap- j
pearance merely, but a practical indication of the \
intention of his Government. Setting aside all l
controversies with Great Britain, the Times offers
Motley a hearty welcome. The Times is assured
that both the Government and the people of tiie
nation will reciprocate the friendly expressions of
the American Minister.
Tlie Irish Church bill passed the third reading in
the House of Commons by a vote of 361 to 237.
L'proarous cheers from Ministerial benches
followed the announcement of the vote.
Havana, June I.—The Spanish troops are in ac
tive pursuit of the tillibusters who landed in the
Bay of Nipe; they have captured three of their
cannon and killed Manuel Querez, commander of
riflemen.
A heavy engagement had taken place at Puerto
Padre.
The insurgents are massing in the vicinity of
Los Tunas.
Skirmishing is reported near Cienfuegos between
the regulars and insurgents.
Dulce’s order, sending a number of political
prisoners to Spain, is revoked.
Madrid, June I.—lt is reported that the Re- '
publican members will not approve the final vote
in the Cortes on tiie question respecting the fu- j
ture form of government for Spain, but will unun- j
imously refuse tosutiscribe to oaths prescribed by
the new Constitution.
St. Petersburg, June I.—The Czar has signi
tied his intention to send an Envoy Extraordinary |
to Washington to congratulate Grant, and expre-s
tlie Czar’s appreciation of tlie value of maintaining
amicable relations between America and Russia. i
London, June 2.—The Irish Church bill was
read tiie ti'-t time in the House of Lords. The i
second readirg is fixed for the 16tli inst.
London, June 2. —During the proceeumgs in the j
House of Commons, in regard to Canada and other
British provinces in North America, Verneu in
quired what policy the Government would have
toward the American Colinies. Mansell replied
that while he declined to enter on the Colonial i
policy of the Government, he intimated that the i
Government policy was to throw costs of self de- j
fence on each colony, and that measures to that end ■
had been partially taken and would be extended
until next year. He had no doubt an arrangemen
for tlie cession of the Hudson Bay Company’s ter j
ritory would receive ratification by tlie Canadian !
Government. The question was uut one of pur- ,
chase only, but also of development of colouiza- !
tion which hitherto had been virtually closed, if
the scheme was successful, tlie Dominion would he ,
able to extend from tlie Atlantic to the Pacific. I
He believed that all the interests of Brit
ish Columbia lay in the connection with
Canada, and every facility would be given j
to forward them. Northcote thought that
the Canadians were better able to decide for them- ]
selves than to act on the advice of the government.
He believed tlie question would soon be satisfaeto- j
lily settled. Buiry regarded Canada as tlie future I
highway to the Indies aud the East, lie ridiculed
the idea of annexation to America, and said bv
such a course we had everything to lose anii
nothing to gain. Adder!ay regarded the arrange
m nit as eminently satisfactory, on tlie principle
that he generally disapproved of tlie system of
government guarantees. For that reason lie would
vote in favor of these measures.
The Times understands that no new demands
have been addressed to England, and Motley enters
upon his duties without any prospect of a contro
versy, hut at tlie same time says the English gov
ernment should examine any new proposals and see
if they promise a just and eqitable solution. If tlie
neutrality proclamation is made a subject of griev
ance we are bound to listen to the argument ad
duced, though it is impossible that any good pur
pose would he secured by raising such a discussion.
The Pall Mall Gazette lias a snobbish article on
the subject, boasting that America backed down
before British pluck, and that under these circum
stances the arrival of anew minister is of small
importance, and the best results anticipated from
Motley’s mission is that his duties will afford him
sufficient leisure to prosecuteliis historical studies.
Havana, June 2.—Mexican advices of the 26th
sav that many States were nullifying tiie act of
Congress suppressing party demonstrations.
Kidnappers are prosecuted with unusual rigor
throughout tlie country. Col. Mayer is still in
prison.
The telegraph from the Pacific to the Atlantic,
through Mexico, is complete.
Havana, June 2. —The property confiscated be
tween the 19th of April and Ist of June produced
seventy thousand dollars.
The city lias been terribly excited since yester
day. Volunteers are arriving, aud serious riots
are expected.
A heavy engagement lias taken place between the
Bays of Nipe and Banos. Tlie official report an
nounces that four cannon and all the munitions of
war brought by tlie tillibusters are captured.
Florence, June 2.—The Parliamentary rejection
of Digruy’s financial plans will probably lead to
liis withdrawal and other ministerial changes.
London, June 3.—The Alabama diplomatic cor
respondence is published. Commenting on it, the
Times says:
When we compare the exacting and critical spirit
of America with tlie conceding temper of Eng
land, and consider that all that was yielded was
insufficient to prevent the rejection of the treaty,
we despair of the success of any negotiations in
which Englend maintains due regard for her own
rights and honor.
London, June 3. —A riot occurred at Mold, a
small town in North Wales, where the people at
tempted to rescue prisoners from the Bhe riff. The
military fired on the people, killing four and wound
ing many.
Madrid, June 2. —Tlie Cortes adopted the Con
stitution.
Topete announced to the Cortes thatsix hundred
Cuban prisoners, sent to Fernando Po, are soon to
be transferred to the Canaries.
A motion to reduce the standing army to 25,000
men was lost
Gen. O’Donnell, while speaking against the mo
tion, was seized with apoplexy and died in tlie
Chamber.
Havana, June 3.—Tne agitation in the city has
partially abated. Dulce resigned this morning—
Don Espinos, acting Captain General until the
arrival of Deßoda. The city is tranquil; but disor
der threateus to break out any moment, as the
volunteers are greatly incensed against Gen. Pelez,
wlio lias disappeared—whereabouts unknown. —
(ireat anxiety prevails. The Varaugade volunteers
arrived in port to day.
Havana, June 3. —The landing of the tillibusters
causes depression in business.
Tlie steamer Montezuma met a schooner which
had just landed munitions of war in the neighbor
hood of tlie Bay of Nipe.
There lias been a light near Villa Clara between
1200 insurgent troops and the Spaniards. A pas
senger reports that only three Spaniards escaped
l’he tillibusters, recently landed in the Bay of
Nipe, proceeded into tlie interior, abandoning five
guns from want of transportation.
Hoff reports from Matanzas, on the 27th, that
the feeling of animosity between the volunteer
and Cuban element is much less than he had been
led to believe when at Havana on the 20th, and a
stranger would uot suspect a revolution to be in
progress.
Lieut. Commander Eastman reported that the
railway to Puerto Principe had been repaired, and
locomotives and freight cars came down to Nuvitas
at a slow rate —taking three days to make forty
miles, and guarded by two thousand men. On tlie
Mil or 10th of May hands of insurgents attacked
the convoy of a train, defeated them, destroyed
the bridges built by the Spaniards, and captured
forty-three officers and men, including a Colonel.
This is the only decided success the revolutionists
have lately had.
Tiie removal of General Lesca by the Govern
ment, and the appointment of General Letoua to
succeed him, gave great dissatisfaction.
Iu consequence of the successful landing of ex
peditions iu districts of Qnantanimo, aud the de
feat of the Spaniards in recent engagements there,
the insurrection had been greatly strengthened
aud new life infused into it, when, to all appear
ances, it was dying out two weeks previously.
London, June s—Tiie temperate speeeli of Lord
Clarendon in tlie House of Lords last evening, on
tlie subject of tlie Alabama treaty, elicited the fol
lowing comments from the London journals this
morning:
The Times says: “For our own part, considering
the demands of America and the ready concessions
of England, we wonder the latter got off so well.
Tlie rejection of the treaty was more a lucky
etiauce than tiie result of tlie firmness of anybody
engaged in behalf of Great Britain.”
The Standard says: “The negotiations for the
Alabama treaty failed because America never in
tended them to succeed. If England now admit’
that it is her duty to renew her efforts for a peace
ful settlement, it is without hope. Our honest de
sire for such a settlement will not b" appreciated
but by a small portion of tlie American people.
Meantime until the details of Mr Motley’s mission
are known, we should fold our hands and limit our
compliments to him as a great historian.”
The Star says : “The Americans can no longer
doubt our readiness to do them justice, or our de
termination to preserve our national character aud
credit.”
Madrid, June s. —Admiral Topete read Office's
telegram, announcing his resignation as Captain-
Genera! of Cuba, before the Cortes, last evening.
Great excitement prevailed. Marshal Serrano asked
for a suspension of judgment until the arrival of
Dulce, and until the particulars iu tlie matter are
known. It is rumored that General Dulce was re
ta’ledon account of his lenity to the Cuban insur
gents.
Paris, Juue 5.—M Lavelette officially declares
that the warlike rumor-, published in tiie newspa
pers recently, are without any foundation.
Brussels. Juue 5. —The upper chamber has con
firmed the bill recently passed by the lower house
to abolish imprisonment for debt.
Dublin, June 5. —Four thousaud persons signed
a protest against the Disestablishment Church bilL
Paris, June 5. —Ernest Bur Jet succeeds Favre
to watch French interests in Mexico, but will hold
no communication with the French Government.
Havana, June 4.—The programme of the vol
unteers is to remain quiet until Deßoda arrives,
and allow him to assume command, and to await
events. The Spanish Admiral strongly opposed
the volunteer’s action in deposing Dulce, but hav
ing tiually acquiesced, it is supposed he will re
main a quiet spectator of whatever may happen
until Deßoda arrives.
Another dispatch from Havana, of the 4th, states
that the volunteers removed the Governor of Car
denas. The volunteers propose a triumvirate of
prominent Spaniards to govern tlie Island till the
Home Government is settled. They will probably
give Count Volenasedo command of the forces in
the field.
The Governor of Havana and the Chief Justice
have resigned.
GEORGIA JOURNAL AND MESSENGER
Forty officials and the Bishop accompany Dffiae
to Spain.
A serious affray between the volunteers and the
regulars occurred at Cardenas.
London, June 5. —In giving the tone of the
Engli-b papers in reference to Lord Clarendon’s
review of the Alabama correspondence, previously
published, the Standard, after abusing America for
tergiversation, arrogance and greed, says that no
English Minister ever had to make any explanation
so humiliating as Lord Clarendon uttered in the
House of Lords; that however conscious of the
perfect sincerity of his motives and the reciiiude of
his eonduct, it was no less a humiliation to be
obliged to treat ia the conventional phases of
diplomacy with a country that acted as the United
Slates i,ad acted in the Alabama ease.
The Telegraph, ministerial organ, says: From
what trauspired in the House of Lords, last night,
Mr. Motley can ascertain what hopes there are to
re-open negotiations, and he will see that in the
opinion of Englishmen, the country has gone far
enough. What he may solicit with success he can
find iu the articles of tlie rejected convention, and
what is hopele-6 even to suggest, he can find in
Senator Sumner’s speech.
SPAIN.
Madrid, June 7.—The Constitution was pro
mulgated yesterday with great pomp. The Execu
tive Council aud Cortea appeared on the platform,
where the Secretory of the Cortes read the Consti
tution to an immense conconrse, who applauded
loudly. Returning to their Chamber, each mem
ber of the Cortes swore to protect and support tlie
Constitution.
Some hisses were heard after the promulgation
of the Constitution. A tumult ensued, which only
subsided when tlie military tired. Tlie Governor
of the city of Madrid rushed among the foremost
rioters with cries of “ Viva Hover<i no Suetorud
This changed the feeling of the fluctuating mob,
which joined in cheering the Governor, and the
tumult subsided. Only two were killed, but seve
ral were wounded.
Subsequently, the Deputies returned to the plat
form and reviewed thirty thousand troops. The
enthusiasm ou all sides was very great. It was
noticed, however, that none of the Republican
Deputies participated in the proceedings. Ihe
civil procession was followed hv a grand banquet
aud fireworks. Over one hundred ihou-and per
sons from the country visited Madrid during the
day. • - ,
A bill will be introduced in the Cortes to-mor
row, creating Serrano Regent of Spain, without
power, however, to sanction laws or dissolve the
Chambers.
The direct taxes in the Spanish Colonies will he
reduced one-half, and a small export duty on
sugar, rum aud tobacco imposed.
Madrid, June 7.—Much anxiety is felt about
Cuba. The Government is unwilling to publish
telegrams from Cuba which increases the uneasi
ness.

It now becomes our | sinful duty to record tlie
death of Dr. JOHN W. Q,U) NCY, who died if
pneumonia, after a short out painful llineis, st
his residence in 1-evy county, Florida, Match 2.5,
1869 aged lorty years, one m mill and twenty
iour days.
He Was bom in Cambridge, Ftigla'id, on lh-*
3btdayo: January, 1829, aud tmigrated to this
country iu tiie twenty-second jiar oi ins age
aud shortly after his arrival here, commenced
tne study of medicine, in which profession he
graduated in South Carolina Medl al Cos lege,
which institution lias been tlie, medical Anna
Aialer ot so many eminent physicians, among
whom was the subject of this memoriam.
Dr. Quincy was a man of g.eot intellect and
noble t ndowmeul ot mind. He hail an excellt ut
education, ami had also what was better than
mere education: it was a sound, strong, and en
quiring mind that lost no opportunity in gath
ering i.orn nooks Information and knowledge.
But it was in the practice of his profession as a
physician that he delighted most and mane his
highest attainments, and in which capacity he
was extremely popular. To visit, the sick, to
practice benevolence aud console the dislresred,
were themes in which his soul delighted. He
was keenly alive to these great important duties,
and also the cause of euucalion was very diar to
his heart
Dr. timney was a man of untiring energy, for
notwithstanding his rim was principally en
gaged in the practice of his profession, yet, “y
assidut us study, be had made hiniselt conver
sant with the law, aud at the lime of his death
was fully prepared for admissinn to the bar.
His numerous friends w.ll no doubt oj pained
to hear the sad intelligence of his death, and es
pecially those who were intimately acquainted
with him. lor it may be truly said that those who
knew him best loved him most.
Last, but uot least, L>r. Q,uiucy was a Christian.
He united with the Methodist Cliuicli at Levj
ville about two years ago, aud was ever alter a
consistent member, and always found at liis
post; aud m Ins last sickness, which was severe
he was never known to muimur or complain,
nut bore it all with Christian fortitude, bowing
submissively to the dispensation of an All wise
Providence.
He uas left a kind and affectionate wife to
mourn liis h.ss. He lias also left two lovely chil
dren —aliltle hoy anil girl—whose tender years
will u -t allow them lo know anything of his pa
ri rnal cere, but over whom a Heavenly Father
will w tch, and for whom a pious faihei’s pray

Mrs. JANE McNAB, wife of John McNab, Esq.,
died at their residence iu Eufaula, Ala., ou the
morning of the 2d of May.
Though in her forty-eighth year, Mrs. McNab,
when in health, seemed only in the prime of ma
tured womanhood. She was born on the beautiful
and romantic island of Islay, near the northwest
coast of Scotland. Her parents, while she was yet
a child, removed to North Carolina, where she
lived until after her marriage. In 1835, stie came
witli her husband to Alabama. Eufaula was then
a mere frontier settlement, whose possession was
still disputed by tlie Indians. But attracted by its
natural advantages and desirable location, they se
lected it as their home. No family has been more
identified with the growtli of the beautiful Bluff
City, aud none have contributed more to its pro
gress and prosperity. Naturally endowed with
uncommon strength of mind aud firmness of pur
pose, Mrs. McNab was ever to her husband not
only a faithful and devoted wife, hut a sympathiz
ing companion and prudent counsellor. To her
children she was the most devoted of mothers. Her
life seemed bound up witli theirs, so much so that
the loss of her first born and favorite child, in 1862,
a young man of fine culture aud most lovely dispo
sition, east a shadow over tlie whole of her after
life, and no doubt hastened her death.
For many years, and until her death. Mrs. McNab
was a member of the Baptist Church, and before
that melancholy sadness arid brooding sorrow,
caused by the death of her son, had settled so heav
ily upou her, aud before her health became so im
paired, none were more devoted to its interests.
More than one of its former pastors can attest her
singularly tender and delicate regard for liis com
fort aud happiness, and her devotion to tlie cause
of piety and benevolence.
Her health had evidently been slowly though
surely declining for several years, and in tlie hope
of restoring it, Mr. McNab traveled w ith her during
last summer, through different portions of Europe.
She revisited tlie place of her birth, and the lovely
scenes of her early childhood. For a time the ef
fect seemed almost magical. But, alas ! how delu
sive are our fondest earthly hopes. She returned
from her voyage and travels only to spend a few
mouths of lingering sickness, of'pain and suffer
ing, in tlie sacred privacy af a loved home, to re
ceive tlie sorrowful attentions of a most devoted
family, and then pass away from tlie checkered
scenes of life. She is gone —gone, no more to re
turn to that broken, sorrowing circle. Yet, as
those bleeding hearts cry out in anguish, “ Where!
I O, where art thou gone! thou best beloved, most
■ loving?” may they uot hear a dear familiar voice
as it whispers in reply,
Only a little before to the shining shore,
Weep not. I’ll leave ajar the goiden gate,
And oft i’ll come and w atch and wait,
Till one by one you all shall come
To joiu those that have gone before,
On that blissfully bright and radiant shore.
Eufaula May 5, 1869.
