\oqrs Respectfully,
T. G. Stxci;
Chairman,,
Mr. Lamb wnfi bom on the 17th
ofSeptembcr, 1847, on Cumberland
Uand, in Camden county ; and
tvas thq son of Barrel B. and Ma
tilda B. Lamb. His ancestors were
originally from Virginia, and served
with distinction in the war of the
Revolution.
When the trumpet summoned
the people of the South to arms in
1861; though only fifteen yearn old,
he promptly joined the Confederate
Army, in Company G., 4th Georgia
Cavalry.
As a soldier he was brave and
true, always ready to work or fight,
occasion required. Always
cheerful and smiling, however dark
the circumstances that surroun|Jed
them, it is difficult to estimate the
real value of his services to the
command. As a bright brave
young soldier he gave promise of a
noble and useful manhood. That
promise has been amply fulfilled,
and lie stands nownmong the must
prominent men of the seaboard.
There is not now, nor lias there
ever been a more popular man in
Glynn county. He was educated
at Glynn County Academy, and
when the war ended devoted him
self to fanning.
Commencing almost without a
dollar, he has already acquired a
respectable property, anil owns a
beautiful place surrounded by pro
ductive lands in Glynn county.
His prosperity is a blessing to his
people; for his car is always open
to the cry of sufiering, and his hand
always ready to extend relief.
Such men have a grand mission on
earth, for their acts elevate and
adorn human nature.
Mr. Lamb has held the office of
Sheriff for six consecutive years,
and has given entire satisfaction to
all classes of the people.
He would have held' the office
indefinitely, and by earnest en-
treatytof the bench, bar and (>«>-
ple, for they were all his friends
and admirers. But his ]icople had
been licuten so badly iu every race
for the legislature, that they were
determined to put forth a man,
who, combined with inliuence over
the voters of the county, possessed
ability to represent it with credit.
It was universally conceded, that
if it \yas possible to beat the race,
Mr. ,laimb could do it. He was
approached upon the subject, and
cheerfully consented to make the
race for the honor of his county.
This was indeed a ease where “the
office sought the man.”
Kutering the field with a ma
jority of from two to three hundred
against him, after an active cam
paign, he was elected by near a
hundred und fifty votes, and re
deem tlio good old county ofGlyun
from negro supermacy. Young,
active, energetic, brave and true,
his friends fondly believe that he
but now stands upon the threshold
of a life of future usefulness and
honor.
The grand characteristic of Mr.
Lamb is his love of truth in all
things, and his utter contempt of
anything that is mean and base.
He was married on the 20th
September, 1866, to Miss fount W.
Kenrick.—Echols Bioguafuical

That Conductor’s Badge,
Won by friend Taylor, of tbo ft. A
A. R. Ik, is indeed a handsome one,
and one of intrinmo value, apart from
the associations. It is of solid gold,
(except port of tbo lantern, which is
glass) with a broad pin, two inchea
in length, baringtbc inscription “Con
ductor,” On tbo rcTureo sido it tbo

From this is suspended an cxqnisito
conductor’s lantern, within which is
delineated tbo entire Lard's Prayer,
so small as to be almost invisible to tbo
naked eye, bnt when viewed through
the powerful lenao in tbe bottom of

Mf. Tison was bom July 19th,
1817, in Glynn county Go., where
he still resides. His Cither’s name
was Job Tison, and his mother’s
maiden name, Sheffield both bom
on the line of Virginia and North
Carolina, and in 1785, removed to
Glynn county, Ga.
In 1843 Mr. Tison married Miss
Anna Lee Mitchell, daughter of
Nathaniel R. Mitchell, of Thomas
county, Georgia.
He is engaged in merchandising
farming and stock-raising.
Sir. Tison was a Whig up to 1850,
8 ince which time he has been a
Democrat
He was State Senator in 1857 and
58, from Glynn county, and was
Judge of the Inferior Court from
1858 until the office was abolished
by the Convention of 1868. He
was county surveyor, also, for more
tlian twenty years.
He is a man who has always
maintained his credit at home and
abroad, which he has always used
with advantage to himself and
those with whom he dealt; never
allowed a note to go to protest, and
has always paid one hundred cents
on the dollar.
He is the father of nine children,
all of whom he reared, and eight of
whom are now living.
The presentation.
The bnllotiug at the recent Cath
olic Fair for tbo badge, to be given
to the most popular conductor, bnv
ing resnlted iu the election of Mr.
Henry Taylor to that high position,
that gentlemen with bis friends, ami
members of the committee and yo
local were bidden to dino with Rev.
Mr. McCabe, tho day following,
when the presentation would take
place—suffice it to say none weut
away hungry. Dinner over, the.
badge was presented to Mr. Taylor
in a neat nud fitting speech by Mr.
McCabe in behalf of tit Francis Xa
vier’s Church, to whom Mr. Kay res
ponded in behalf of Mr. Taylor. Thu
guest, it will be remembered were
still at the table, and at a given sig
nal from onr host, that prince of
waiters, Jim Smith, appeared on the
scene, mid in a trice spread out be
fore us viuiida, sni-li as tempts the
appetite nud tickles tho palate.
Toasts were offered, and responded
to by gentlemen present with an ease
that showed them to be anything
but novices. After a pleasant honr
the party dispersed with kindliest
feelings for their host, and nt fiencu
with themselves. The occasou will
form a pleasant remembrance to ns
all. Below we give a correct account
of tho votes as received from Mr.
McCabe.

This gentleman entertained onr peo
ple on Munday and Tuesday nights,
last, with his wonderful feats,and suc
ceeded in “pulling the wool” over a
good many eyes, although he told uil
hrforo-lmnd that it was a bnmbug.
His tricks were well performed,how
ever, and elicited the hearty applause
of all. His feats of mesmerism were
the wonders of the evening. To gain
control of the.uills of others so aa to
make them willing and obeuient sub
jects. and perform nets of which tliey
have no knowledge uftcrwanls, is some
thing beyond onr comprehension.
The closing scene of Monday night
baffled oil. Miss Cook waa mesmer
ised, and theu suspended, horizontally,
in the air with no support, save under
her right elbow. This over-coming of
the laws of gravity, waa just one degree
above the comprehension of all, unless
it he that she wore, concealed from
view, a mentnl frame work which fit
ted. at her elbow, into the upright
standard (a hollow iron tube apparent
ly) which enpported her. Be this as
it may, tho feat was wonderful.
