The news, and it spread rapidly, on Sunday afternoon, that Mrs. Herring was dead brought universal regret and general sorrow throughout the town. It was known that she was very criticaUy iU, but aU hoped she would be spared a while longer, spared to brighten her own fire jdt; and to bring relief and sun shine into many poor homes, a work in whic.i she had been engaged for many years. But it was not to be. “It is enoug.i,” was said, “come up higher,” and the spirit of this saintly woman winged its flight from earth to glory. At half past three o’clock on the calm Sabbath afternoon the golden chord snappsd asunder and the tired, pain- racked body was at rest—at rest foiever. The deceased was boro on the 21st of Mareh, 1834, and was mar ied to Mi - . George W. He ring on the second day of Nt vember, 1854. Thus, for nearly half a century, she lias been a helomeet and companion for her husband. Mrs. Herring was closely identified with almost every organization in the town which promised to uplift human ity, make it better, to bring Relief to the needy, to succor, suffering and send sun shine into the homes of the poor. She was an active member of the City Mis sion Board, president of the General Benevolent Society, one of the manag ers of the City Hospital, second vice- president of the Home Mission Society and treasurer of the Daughters of the Confederacy: In all these positions she discharged her duty with great faith fulness and fidelity. No sacrifice was too great for her to make for others. She lived, not alone for self, but for others, and the world lias been made better for her living in it. Her good deeds wiU Uve after her, and her mem ory will long be cherished by all who knew her. The poor of ThomasviUe wUl miss her. .The outstretched hand of want extended her was never returned empty. Charitable toward the short comings of others, she sought, by both precept and example, to win tiie erring back to the paths of rectitude and righteousness. Every good work, everything which promised to relieve want and suffering found in her a ready and wiUinq;. 'atju- tor. The poor had in her a friend in deed and in acts. The wail of want never feU unheeded on her ears. She was aaid had been during most of ner long, useful and unselfish life,a mend ter of the Metho list church. Site lived her religion every day, and was a s 1 lining light, allowing others the straight and narrow way. Not satisfied with wort - iagout her own salvation, she sought, I at all times, to woo and win others to favorite stopping j the cross of Christ. Not until the books are opened on that great day wiU the ood this godly woman wrought while earth be revealed. But her pilgrimage on ■earth is ended, and, upyonde-, where there no more death, no more tears, no more sorrow, she has joined the heavenly choir in singing the praises of her Redeemer. Tliere this saintly woman wi'l wait and . watch for those whom die left behind. The nominations of John B. Craw- , And rhere ^ ha8 doubtless been wel- ford, of Cairo, and Newton T.

Jones, a prominent citizen of Gwinnett oounty, is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Alexander. Mr. Jones was formerly principal keeper of the Georgia penitentiary. He will spend some time here. E. M. Mallette, the real estate agent, has leased the Mrs. E. H. Smith dwell ing on Jackson street to Mr. F. P. Fra zier, of Evanston, 111., for the winter. Mr Frazier and bis family will be a valuable addition to the winter colony in ThomasviUe. This is their first sea son in this city and they expect to re main late in the spring. Mr. J. R. Anderson, of Ochlockonee, was in the city yesterday. Mr. Ander son is one of the most prosperous mer chants in Thomas «r nty. He has been closely confined at home of late, owing to his wife’s illness, but we are glad to note that she is now recovering rapidly. Mr. and Mrs. John Cummings, of Cleveland, Ohio, arrived in the city yesterday afternoon, and wiU spend sometime as the guests of Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Hunna at Melrose plantation. Mr. and Mrs. Cummings have visited this city before and nature put on her gladdest smile to welcome them back. AU of their friends are glad to see them again. The daughters of the confederacy failed to include Capt. Hausell, Capt. Triplett and Rev. J. P. Wardlaw, in the long list of those they thanked for help ing make Lee’s birthday a success. They say they know these men would regard the opportunity of helping as a privUege, and tliat they wunld take it as a matter of course that everybody ap preciated their service. The trio ought to feel even better than the rest because of this presumption. A. C. Morse, of Chicago, Piney Woods. C. M.

Happy, consoling thought ! It dispels the gloom of death and drives back the dark shadows from around the grave. The funeral, conducted by Rev. J. P. Wardlaw, took place from the residence yesterday afternoon at £ o’clock. The pastor paid a beautiful tribute to the dead, and exhorted the living to follow in her footsteps. Part of the exercises consisted in singing: “Nearer My God To Thee/"’ a favorite hymn of the de ceased. The casket, heavily draped in black, wtk covered with many beautiful floral offerings from the friends of the dead. A silver plate showed the words AT BEST. Ha fallowing wece the pall bearers: W. A. Pringle, James F. Ev ans, C. T. Stuart, J. B. Chisholm, W. M. Smith and John Triplett. The members of the John B. Gordon Chapter Daughters of the Confederacy, of which chapter, Mrs. Herring wj loved and active member, attended the ■funeral in a body, and placed a beauti ful wreath on the casket.

Harvey & Wood have often entertained their guests and their Thom- asville friends in splendid style, but there was never a more delightful dance given in this city, than the opening ball at the Mitchell House which occurred last Thursday night. About one hundred and fifty invita tions had been issued, and almost as many guests were present, for no one misses an opportunity to attend one of Harvey & Wood’s dances. The guests began to arrive at nine o’clock, and were greeted by an inviting scene. The large dining room had been clear ed, and the floor put in perfect condi- The famous Shannon orchestra played mimic that made dancing a real delight, and the happy young people en joyed every two-step and waltz. The feature of the evening, however, as the new palm room, which was, for the first time, thrown open to the pub- This room is spacious, and was brilliantly lighted. Beautiful decora tions of bamboo, magnolias, palms, etc., added to its charm. Easy chairs, . di- i and tables, were scattered through out the room, and between dances other orchestra, directed by Mr. Shan himself, gave a choice musical pro gram. Thus there was, as one gentle expressed it, “a continuous per formance,” Elegant refreshments, were served during the course of the evening, in the palm room, and there was an atmos phere of cordial good cheer everywhere. The pleasure of the evening was add- l to, by the presence of Mr. C. A. Wood, who was warmly welcomed by every one. Mr. E. It. Jenkins, mana ger of the Mitchell, was untiring in liis efforts for the pleasure of his guests. The universal verdict was that the entertainment was perfect, and that no feature had been omitted. The last dance was over at half past twelvi o’clock and it was with genuine regret that the guests left the handsome hotel, but cheered by the thought that there ere other dances to foli'ow.
