The UrlnUlnt Fountain.
The drinking fountain presented by
Hon. J. F. King, of August], will bo
erected in our city this week, and will be
in perfect running order probably on
Friday.
Wo are much gratified to make this
announcement, and that the generous
gilt of Judge King will be utilized.
Several gentlemen of the city have in-
tousled themselves in tho matter, and
their effort* have been crowned with
complete success thus far.
The source from which the water for
the fountain will be drawn will be some
springs on the back of the lot on
which tasds Dr. Hall’s former
resilience on Poplar street. A largo res*
ervoir has bsen constructed, capable of
containing 1,300 gallons of water, made
of the finest brick and bnilt in the most
eubstantial and wotkmanliko manner.
Tbn water is conducted to the reservoir
by means of iron pipes from the spring.
Here the water is colteotei by inveitsd
oven-shaped brick chambers. These
pipes da net go immediately to the reser
voir bat empty into s Rand box when, the
water is purified by selling, and is again
dtawn off by another pipe to the reser
voir.
The sand bax is mad3 of the vary best
t rick cemented on tho inside.
Too water is taken from the mam re-
ceptielo by means of a pipe from the
bottom, whoso end is covered by a fine
etraimr, and conducted to the fountain
i>y means of a new two inch wrought iron
pipe. The water is as pure spring water
as can be found anywhere, limpid and
fresh and in tho greatest abundance.
Ttie rt ervoir, containing 1.300 gallons
was filled in e. night. Yesterday the
work of laying the piping to the proposed
ait- of the fountain was commenced and
a great portion accomplished. Tho chain-
gang furnished l>y the city did tho work
nnder tho supervision of Csptain J. C.
Wheeier. Tho work is progressing very
rapidly.
To Jsy the fountain wni be set. The
fcontain will be not ODly useful and or
namental. but will furni.-h for man and
beast a free supply of water, tho purest
that car ba obtained in the city, without
money and without price.
Tho gentlemen in charge of the work
deserve the gratitude of the city for their
energetic and disintereated efforts in be
half of Macsn »nd humanity

BEAD PRESIDENT DAVIS* LETTER ON ME
MORIAL DAT.
The committee have chosen Mr. J. L.
Sanlsbury, Jr., of tbis city, to read
President Jefferson Davis’ letter on me
morial day, and be has accepted the posi
tion. This is a fit appointment and one
whioh will meet the approbation of onr
coin inanity.
Mr, Sanlsbnry was a Confederate sol
dier, and while a mere boy received a
wound in tbo shoulder during the late
war, from whioh his right arm is partially
disabled to this day.
We understand that the letter of oar
great chieftain, which wo have as yet not
bsen permitted to read, is a specimen of
beaaty and style, glowing with a pathos
and fervor, while speaking of the Con
federate dead, that alone conld emanate
from tbe brain of Jeffareon Davis.
We are informed that Hr. Saalabary is
a fine reader, and wo may expect the un
divided attention of the great auditory ex
pected to be present.
Printed copies of Ihc letter will he pre
pared in very beautiful style by J. W.
Bmke & Oo., so that every visitor to the
city can have an opportunity of obtain
ing one for framing or fatnra referenoe.

Tho first prtzo was awarded for tho
best score, and the second for the best
last three shots.
Mr. George F. Payne won both. He
has been very fortnnatc, taking the prize
for several years past.
We sympathizo with those who missed
the target entirely.
Tho oldest soldier on the ground was
that popular conductor in the employ of
the Central Railroad Company, Captain
J. O. Davis, who had charge of the ex

Reminiscence.
Last night at Ralston Hall a cultivated
and refined audience assembled to pay
the tribute of respect to the distinguished
General Alpkeus Baker.
The orator was introduced in a few
chaste and appropriate remarks by Rev,
A. J.llittli-, l>. I>., President of Mercer
University, an old and fast friend of the
General.
The lecture illustrated American
civlization and progress. History enter
ed largely into the component parts of
the lecture, but such a beautiful chapter
of unwritten history was delivered that
dread of dryness was driven away. The
whole lecture abounded m flights of elo
quence long, lofty and sustained. Figure
after figure followed in such rapid succes
sion that the mind was almost dazzled
and lost in the net work of imagery.
There was a beauty, a freshness and a
copiousness about his style which is very
seldom approached. At times he was
majestic, and when tbe music of his voice
would cease at the end of an eloquent
flight, the most hearty and appreciative
applause burst from the audience.
The close of the lecture was one of the
most eloquent we have ever heard.
Throughout were Bashes of wit and hn-
mor, giving the effort an additional at
traction. The numerous bursts of ap
plause showed the appreciation of the au
dience.
General Baker is a fine eff-hand speak-
and possesses a sweeping and peculiar
eloquence which is born in the man, not
acquired, and which chains an aadience
and leads it to its pleasure. He is nature’s
own orator. His voice is silvery and
clear, and distinct, and his delivery very
attractive.
We feel that justice has not been done
either lecture or lecturer in this brief no
tice. They must be heard to be appre
ciated, and we regret that a still larger
audience was not present to be charmed
and delighted last evening.
