UNITED RIFLE’S ARMORY, >
Columbus, Ga., Sept. 23, 1855. \
Soldiers! Death has invaded our tanks and struck
down in the prime oh manhood, our fellow soldier. Privaie
David J. Barber is no more, fie died at his residence in
this city, on the22d.of September.
We knew him as a zealous and efficient member of our
Company, a warm and steadfast friend. The widow and
the orphan will, long remember him as a Mason.
‘File Beneh and the Bar of this Circuit, and indeed all who
have had occasion to inspect the records of .the Superior
Courtof this county, will bear ample testimony to his ca
pacity and fidelity as a public officer, and the community
appreciated him as a citizen.
He was but mortal and had his faults; lie had his virtues
—no man took less pains to conceal the one or to publish
the other—let us throw, the mantle of chairity over the
former, let u:s emulate and cherish the latter.
In token of respect for the memory of our departed
brother, be it therefore
Resolved, That in.the death of our fellow soldier, this
Company has lost one of its brightest ornaments, and the
community a valuable citizen.
Resolved, That our Armory and Arms lie clothed in
the habiliments of mourning for the usual space of 30 days,
and that we, as <t Company, follow his remains to the
grave, thus paying our last tribute to him while on earth.
Resolved, That we tender to the family and relatives
of the .deceased, our deep and heartfelt sympathy, for their
irreparable loss.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions he handed
to the family of the deceased—and that the same bespread
upon the Minutes of the Company, and that the city pa
pers be requested to publish them.

ry other article known to me as a pulmonary agent. Some
weeks ago 1 had an opportunity of testing its efficacy in a

harmless, and at the same time extraordinary good effects,
