For this loan of Its credit the Georgia Ball- ?
rosy will receive one million two hundred j
thousand dollars of the stock of the Port Royal
Company. This stock will give the Georgia ,
Road a controlling interest in the affairs of
the company. The endorsement ls not to be ,
made nor the stock received: until the action ?
of the board of directors shall be approved

to do with. That's what's the matter.

Rose' lane to collect the rent. The tens
who was also a woman, could not respe
wi tb the money, and a fierce altercation

.-TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
At a meeting of the Board of Fl remasters, held
Monday evening, 11th instant, the following pre?
amble and resolutions were ananlmonsly adopt?
ed :
On ordinary occasions Death removes from onr
midst those whose places can he easily Siled. Bot
when, with a sodden visitation, he prostrates a
"shining mark," wboae sphere of nsefnlnesB
illumined an entire community, a wide-spread
sympathy deplores the affliction which causes a
vacancy so impossible to Bnpply.
In the death of the late Francis J. Porcher the
Board of Firrmasters recognise with unfeigned
sorrow and deep regret .the irreparable loss they
have sustained.
Intimately associated with the Fire D?pannent
during the past thirty years, the untiring zeal
and active energies of our deceased brother were
always devoted to the advancement of its pros?
perity and usefulness. Endowed with a liberal
spirit, he contributed with a generous hand,
throngh a protracted civil strife, and amid sea?
sons of embarrassment, in sustaining, and en?
couraged by his good counsel in supporting and
strengthening', bur time-honored association. His
judicious aid waa ever tempered by that urbanity
of manner that always characterizes the "true
gentleman," in the enlarged sense of that term.
Modest and unassuming in his demeanor-the
soul or honor and integtity la his mercantile rela?
tions-faithful, earnert and unswerving in his
friendship-zealous in hts devotion to our depart?
ment, and lavish in his offerings on the altar of
charity-his loss to our community is sensibly
felt sud sincerely deplored.
The grave has closed over the mortal rema ms
of onr lamented friend, whose character was with?
out stain or reproach, and whose life exhibited
those rare virtues that adorn and dignify human
character; be it, therefore,
Resoled, That in the death of the late Francis
J. Porcher, tne Fire Department has loat one or
its most zealous friends, our c ty a most nsefnl
and enterprising citizen, and charity a moat
worthy exemplar.
Resolved, Tnat we tender to the bereaved
widow and family or the deceased our sincere
sympathy and condolence.
Resolved, That as a further testimony of onr
respect and esteem, a blank page of onr Minute
Book be suitably Inscribed to his memory.
Resolved, That the secretary of the board trans?
mit to the wtdow of the deceased the foregoing
preamble and resolutions, and publish the same
lu the dally papers. , B. M. STKOBBL,
