His parents were In good ctmistat.rea end shared gcneromly with their promising sou. The financial ability of the young man soon asserted itself, and hit moderate income was rapidly increased. He alwaya lived highly, bnt at the tame tlm* he rayed a good portion of bit earning* and put it in good Investment*. At the bar, he haa figured in tome ot the mint Important cases ever tried In the state and his fees In several of these case* were very handsome. Among the most Intricate filvil cases In which bo engaged, was the Dul'reewlll case, In which sev* cral hundred thousand dollars were Involved. This rase, he gained after a loug and hotly con terted fight, and his fee was large, but not as largo aa la generally supposed. Most of the fortune of General Toombs was made in fees of five hundred dollars and leas. A remarkable thing about the financial career of General Toombs was the safety of his tnvostnwoU. When he loaned money he invariably took a mortgage with power of sale or a deed, giving bor- rower bond for titles. Aa an old friend of hU re marked one day, "General Toombs never rode without a laddie.??? He alwaya preferred real citato security, and rarely took any other. Ue has alwaya been a great believer in real estate as an Investment. Probably nothing demonstrates his belief in land better than his Texas invest ment. Between forty and fifty years ago ho and Governor Crawford purchased about 100,000 acre* of land in Texas, at a nominal figure???from ten twenty-five cent* an acre. For over twenty years there lauds paid nothing. Governor Crawford last faith in them, and gave his half interest to his son and ron-lik-law. Pretty soon after, the land begun to sell for from |3 to 95 per acre. Hcverel years afterwards, in about ???77 or '78, General Toombs bought out the half Interest of Crawford and Mays, (the son and son-in-law Governor Crawford, paying 927,500 In cash. On this purchase alone he realised {50,000 profit. His last sale of Texas lands was made In 18*1, when he sold what he had left to an English company for 120.000 cash. His Texas land Investment paid him in all over 9200,000. In 1807 be bought a largo plantation In Wilkes county for one dollar per acre and in leas than a year he aold It for seven dollars per acre. General Toombs was Interested largely In real estate In Atlanta. He owned a ninth Interest in the old Kimball bouse, and when It was burned ho immediately subscribed toward the budding ol another. In the new house ho iuvested about 1311.000 and was a member of the syndicate which built it. tils least fitness# General Toombs has not l>cen a well man for tho past year, but not until tho past summer did hi* powerful constitution show signs of giving away. When In Atlanta, in August, he remarked to Hens- tor Frank Colley that he was "going home to die.??? Shortly after his return home he grew worse, and never again left hls!house. (Ills mind began to fall, and for the lari three months ho has carried him' self, in his Imagination, back to the stormiest b it most striking period of bis career. He has fought his battles, both In the field and the forum, over and over again, and during the post three months he hat continually believed himself to be In other places than his own homo, but during tha whole time his mind has wandered to tha placo of his residence.

It was iii this condition that Mr. Koraco Brad lty, who went for Till ODMIRimog, found him when visiting Washington to sketch interesting t ??.|nts romui'trd with hla life, am) whleh are pro- ????i??ti'd today. Tho dying hero, wasted and weak ened, was gently reclined, with his hea??l upon a I Blow, and seemed to sleep as ho waited for the linal summons. The Funeral# Washington, (!??., December 17.???[Special. Toombs dead looked not lees eloquent than Toombs living! At one looked upon the llpe sealed in eternal silnire and thought of tho stonny acenoa through which he had paused, what a lesson it tnught of human will and of the omnipotent band of God. The Innly was pluml upon a cot laying east and west. As one entered tho room the first object wen was the corpse of tho gnat Georgian whose eloquence had electrified nates and whose power had thrilled million*. Mighty Toombs, more powerftil even in death than life! The ruddy flow of health was gone; the foil face, the laughing eye, the haughty manner???all were replaced by the closed lUla, the pinched expression and the pallor which Ixspok?? death, Ono ???who had known tho Tin mbs of thirty years ago,??? said an old nrquai??tA??rc who had Just dropped in, M woul<l never rceognirc him. l!cro before us wo see the inanimate man; its dissemblance from tho original of life shows how much of tho soul, how much of the spirit and how much of the heart there was in the cold clay which now lies before us.??? As if standing sentinel over hi* dead friend was placed the marble bust of Alexander II. Btephcns, on tho side looking into the dead face of the man who in life w i* his Ixvt Wend. As one looked at tho m irblo face of Stephens jpuing into tho dead face of TiHtmiis, the mind was Involuntarily drawn to thp other member of the great trium virate???Ben. Hill. Three nobler name* w.*re never given to history. While Stephen*, rack- id by the pains of seventy years of life, was riding for the first time into tbe governorship, Hill In the ftill prime of manly vigor fell a victim to the insatiate mounter and uuthcttd away only to he followed a few mouths later by the great commoner. M<wnwhile the most kingly of the three, perfect in hi* phy.dc.il manhood, with a bruin unsurpassed in hi* century, with a vitality oach os but few men i???om*, nw l>oth dcM*eiuI to the grave, and, at lieot, weary of life, laid down ttie staff and has hinnelf joined the glorious twnd. About this time an old colored urvn joined tbe group, named Undo Hilly. ???Wo all loved Mnwa Hob,??? said Uncle Hilly. ???1 was tcu rats old jvhen he was bom. I saw him wheu be was first sent out with long dresses. I kr.owtd biru a boy; I saw him a young man, and never was be other than a man to love. I followed him from Alabama to Virginia. He always treattd us like children. When the war (suit on there was three hundred of us, and when tbe war ended there was uot ono but Who wanted to stay.??? The old negro yrlpcd fab eyes, which were fat filling with terra, and said: ???Old Hilly hid no friend like M*??*s Bob, and heTl soon havu to go, for hU hair is growing white and hla step is getting niouty . feeble.??? General Toombs???s coochnnn. Du??. who hod faithfully attended him during his sickness, Was also entbudAstic in his master???s praise. ???All de time while he was sick,??? arid be,??????he would quoted?? scriptures sa l Ulk about dear old mistress. Ono night ho wake op sud denly and Mid: ???My darting, I will woo pin ! yon on tbe other aido of tbo river.??? I tried to qniet him, but he said, ???Julia is on tho other aide of tbo river and I roust go to her.??? Tho night before he died he laid, 'Dan aro you ready ???? I answered ???Ready for whatT Then he raid: Tam going. Tho cud has come. Voa hod better bo ready, too, for we mast all meet on the other shore.??? ??? Yonr correspondent next saw Dr. O. W. Mulligan, who bad been the general???s lifelong physician. Said he: ???I knew Toombs from my boyhood. I grew op under his influence, and I can say that a more considerate man to ward his friends, a kinder man toward his ser vants, a more devoted husband or fonder father never lived. When he returned from his hut visit to Atlanta he said; 1 Doctor, you cannot minister to a mind diseased. I feel that tho end has come. I am ready to go.??? I tried to talk him out of it, but it waa no use. His intel lect became rapidly clouded, and for aix weeks he had been unable to recognize even his clos est friends. The day before he died his little granddaughter, Louise Colley, about three years old, clambered up on the bed to him*. To her he gave his last smile of recognition, pit ting her cn the head and calling her by name.??? The lost man to look upon the fkco was William F. Alexander, who had been the hus band of tbe general???s eldest daughter, Mr. Alexander stooped low and looked critically Into tbe face, nrooe with a sigh and stopped back. Then the lid wot slowly screwed on and the faro of General Toombs was bnt a memory. Tbe Toombs mansion is aet about three hun dred yards back from the street, which is reached by a bricked walk through a shrubbery of mignonette and arbor vide. Tho pall bearers at once took places, and lifting the coffin, proceeded slowly down the walk to the street^ where they deposited it upon the hearse. Undo Billy and Dun, the general's two old servants, claimed and were accorded the placo of honor to lead tho horses by the bits at the given signal, and at Jl:.*i0a. m.

While tlio uudicnco was singing this beauti ful by mu, the voice of Hlshop Beckwith was heard to ring out clear above the rest of the singers until at last It seemed m if he was carrying the hymn alone. Daring the tinging of this hymn, a crmors inc ident occurred. Mrs. Toombe, when living, a had _ pet shepherd dog. named Julius. Julhiiwent to all the funerals and became an expected participant. When his rooster died, the dog bowled pittifolly, and from the house to tho church kept making demonstrations around the hearse. An effort was mado to koop him out of tho church, but during the singing of tbe hymn he slippod in and, walking down the renter aisle, stood a moment In front of tho coffin and taking his stand at the head of the coffin kept it until tho services were O' re.

Thle be admitted frankly. I said I would feel callod upon to say that under theso Influences he had allowed himself to become bound by habits whleh It was impossible for him to throw off. I told him no one would doubt Ills truth or Integrity, and that during the years oiler hi* eonverxion ho struggled against habits which It was too lato for him to control. Ho became silent, and so was I. Later we met in prayer, then he said u glad you told me what you did. knew you wore a young man.

It waa with a sense of relief, therefore, ben Bishop llt ckwith took tho platform, that tho better *ido of Toomlie was spoken of.
