He was sojourning at the time of his death with ids daughter, Mrs. L. C. Hall. nee.Miss Mollie Hunter, at her home, Dardauelle, Ark., to which place ho wont from this city about three months ago. He was in a very feeble state of health when he left, aud many of his friends in bidding him farewell did not think they would ev er see him in life again. Col. Hunter was born uoav Lynch burg, Va., about 74 years ago. When a young man he came to Georgia with tho late Col. L. N. Whittle of Macon, and was employed as a civil engineer on the line of the Macon and Western It. It. Subsequently lie was employed to survey the line of the present Milledgevilie and Gordon It. It. He was twice married. By his first wife lie had one son, still living. His last wife, whom he married in 1849, was Miss Frances, eldest daugh ter of the late Judge Iverson L. Har ris, by whom lie had six sons and three daughters, all living and grown. Col. Hunter held many positions, dur ing his residence in this city, of hon or and responsibility. He was for several years agent of the Planter’s Bank of Savannah in this place. He was chief engineer of a party who were employed by the State to sur vey the Okefenokee Swamp, and his report was a valuable one, eliciting mnch new and important inform* tion. Ho was Secretary of the Exec utive department during Gov. Jenk ins’ administration. For several years lie was connected with both the Southern Recorder and the Union- Rkcobdkr, after the consolidation of the two papers. He held the offices of city and county surveyor for a number of years. His remains, accompanied by his sons, William and Charles, reached tliis city Friday by the 2 p. m. Central train and were carried to the Presby terian church, of which he had long been an elder, and the funeral servi ces took place at half past four p. m., the pastor, Rev. Donald McQueen, of ficiating. Here a largo number of his relatives and friends were assembled to attest their love and respect for the memory of the good man. In the procession to the cemetery there walked, next to the hearse, a number of our old citizens, who were special friends of the deceased during his en tire residence in this city, and a num ber of old family servants accom panied the remains to their last rest ing place. The pall-bearers were three of his sons, Richard, William and Charles, and three nephews, Louis Andrews Louis Hall and Marion Harris. The end with our old friend was not sudden, or did it find him unprepared for the change. He had lived long, and he had time to take a calm and deliberate view of his past life and the great mystery called death, bnt not a mystery to him, for he saw nothing mysterious about It; all was plain and clear to his vision as to his approaching hereafter. He was a deep thinker, a close reader, a pa tient listener, n correct writer, a fas cinating conversationalist and as truthful a man as ever breathed. He grew old as gracefully as any man we ever knew. He was, to sum up his character in a few words, a gentleman and a Christian. He was tho personification of politeness, and though one of ttie best in formed men in Georgia, on all sub jects outside of a specialty, lie was modest and disinclined to push his advantages and power though con scious of liis ability to stand with the foremost. Ho was the writer's friend through forty years of sunshine and shadow. We stood by him at the bridal and drop a tear at his tomb. sway. The officers Evang^v?j.L fl< AITeshlent: A. J.Carr and S.

As is well known, ammonia is unhealth- nil in food, and dries up the bread material. Protection to consumers of food com pounds lies in their ability to choose those made from healthful substances. Unless manufacturers publish just what their baking powder is made of, do not use their goods, but buy instead CLEVELAND’S SUPERIOR , BAKING POWDER. This powder is made only of strictly pure sfrape cream of tartar, and strictly pure bicarbonate of soda, with a little wheat flour to preserve it. This is attested by the official analyses of Government and State chemists, and physicians, and chemists of Boards ot Health throughout the country. Cleveland Brothers, Aluany, N. Y. Feb. 12, 1889. nr7p 32 ly An Enterprising City. Our recent trip to Milledgevilie was our second visit to that place and though onr attention during the day was chiefly aontined to the ball ground and the rain shnt us in at night, we could not help but be im pressed with the thrift and enter prise of the place. Our impressions were chiefly confirmed by the spirit of enterprise which seemed to be breathed by her citizens and to per vade the very atmosphere. The most noticeable outgrowth of this new spirit of enterprise which has taken hold upon her people and the one which is most apparent to a stranger is Milledgeville’s new dum my line railroad, from the depot to the asylum, a distance of two miles. A dummy road was quite a venture for Milledgevilie, and it has only been in operation a short while, but its gratifying success has confirmed the confidence of the people in their growing city and encouraged thorn to renewed efforts. , But the most interesting feature to hb was the connection of the recent rapid growth of the town with ite building associations, as explained to ns by an enthusiastic citizen. These building and loan associations have been in a large measure responsible for the number of new buildings re cently erected. Milledgevilie posses ses three, of these associations, the oldest not more than three yeabs old, tire youngest just organized, and yet these associalions have been directly responsible for the building of over fifty houses. These associations put fifteen hundred dollars a month into buildings, and the expense is lightly borne by the members, as the amount is drawn from the pockets of a large number and so does not bear heavily upon any one. The money put Into these associations, instead of being simply contributed to the town out of public spirit, is really the most profitable investment that could be made. The shares in the oldest as sociation are now worth much more than the amount of money put in hy the holders and regarded as valuable property. The people of Milledge- villo liuvo found these associations so profitable that they have recently or ganized another one on the same basis, with the same general intent and purpose. These building and loan associations have aided in build ing up many other cities besides Mil- ledgeville, but their practical work ings so near home brought forcibly to our mind the thought that this is just what wo need in Warrenton aud if we ever expect to build up tho town the best way to begin is with a build ing and loan association. The Milledgevilie Hotel, kept by Mr. F. B. Mapp, furnishes good evi dence of Milledgeville’s flourishing condition. The Hotel is kept in the be6t of style and is a worthy rival of the best hotels of the state. While in Milledgevilie we had the pleasure of meeting and conversing for quite a while with our friend and for mer fellow citizen Joseph E. Pottle, a Warrenton boy held in deservedly high esteem by the people of Mil- ledgeville. We also made an aequain tance of Col. John T. Allen, a promi nent citizen of Milledgevilie and young attorney of growing fame his section of tho state. We shall take the first opportunity of again visiting Milledgevilie and her clever, enterprising people.—Warrenton Clip- W ILL bo sold before tho Court House door, in the city of Mlllodgovlllo, during tho legal sale hours, on the first Tuesday in September, 1889, tho following property, tp-wlt: All that tract or pnrcol of land contain ing two hundred and eighty-four and 3-lOth acres, adjoining lands or Mrs. M.
