Correspondence Atlanta Constitution.] Congressman Lewis, of the third distrust, introduced a batch of general and speoial bills today, many of them ot particular inter est to Geogians. One of his bills of general im- der hands we laid away to awa the great judgment day while his pure spirit took its flight to bivouac in the elysean fields. Our brother removed with his father’s family from South Caro lina and settled near Perry in 1851. He at once connected him self with this Sunday Sohool and was a regular attendant and faith ful to every duty. In March, 1861, when the alarm of war was sounded, he promptly offered his services to his country and went immediately to the front and re mained the entire four years of that immortal struggle, surren dering on April 26th, 1865, at Greensboro, North Carolina .with General Joseph E. Johnson’s ar my. As a soldier under the stars and bars he was ever faithful and true. Whether on the field of carn age, or the tented field or around the fireside camp, he was ever ready to' answer the bugle’s oall and Btand in his place. After the close of the war he was married to Miss Belle Martin, who preceded him to the spirit world several years, leaving one son. Our brother lived in Tennessee several years, but he longed for his old haunts and friends in Georgia, and returned to Perry in 1889, where he has since resid ed. Uncle “Alf,” as he was famil iarly called, was one of God’s no blemen, he was a Christian gen tleman, a man without guile, al ways cheerful and happy. He was peculiarly free from thedetestp, ble habit of speaking evil of his fellowB; if he could not speak kindly he refraiud from speaking In the latter years of his life his frail barque was often driven by unfriendly winds, but never murmur escaped his lips, though he was shut in two months on a bed of suffering before his release. Farewell brother, we expect to meet you again. Therefore be it resolved: 1st that in the death of Brother King this Sunday School, church and community, have lost a true and valued member and his loved ones a loving friend. 2nd That a blank page in our Sunday Sohool minutes be dedi cated to the memory of this pure aud spotless brother.

The Panama canal treaty will be sent to the Senate for ratification about Deoember 16th, It will no doubt be approved, as the democrats will not take advantage of their power to prevent it. There will no doubt be muoh debate on the sub ject, and it will begin immediately after the passage of the Ouban bill. The methods of the administration in bringing about the treaty will be more discussed than the treaty, which gives this oountry all the oonoesBions desired.
