In looking over the names

above name,which forms the

there is a >;:<] and peculiar
.charm about a graveyard.—
. The solemn stillness, the
hushed silence, the awe.
the solitude, touches the
soul uhh a chill singer, and
starts'a train ot mcjatirhoiv

Out yonder is the busy,active,

LombnrUm North Carolina, j
• TV!. 2-ml 1795,nnd immigra !
i.'-: v- j j !us j) a rents to Nat- |
©fitz. Miss, in 1800. Of his
youth and early education we j
can learn but little, but sup-!
pcs ■ his opportunities were]
limited owing to the early
age in the history of Mississ
ippi in which he was brought
op, for it wit! he remembered
she was a Territory. We Ill's!
hear ot him prominently be-1
fore the prniie us a captain
in command of a company j
under General J ackson,at the ]
battle of New Oilcans, where |
though young as he was, he I
distinguished himself tor his!
gallantry and soldierly hear.-j
ing. He must have studied
law tally, and amidst the ex
citing scenes of border life,
and the rung!) experience of
roughs and Spaniards,and the
mixed population of the day.
he hi id the broad foundation
of the future eminence in his
chosen profession,and emhel
lishod his mind with a itch
profusion of knowledge and j
..experience culled from the!
wiiu and romantic scenes of j
those ciulv da; s. Time toiled j
on, the- war with Biniati en- j
v oed when Pal-ten ham fell,and ]
somewhere in Adams or Jef-j
fbrson,(or Pickering as it was)
t hen called) counties ; oung |
Willie pursued his studies, j
pr< secufed his profession in a j
quiet and unobtrusive way.!
in 1813, August Stli, he was j
merited to Miss Margaret
Holden, an intelligent and i
est imablc ladv.andafterw ards j
(how long we do not know)
he purchased of Mr Hudson
the place on the Jackson road :
io Copiah county, jus*: above |
■Crystal Springs, and now j
known as the Win. I). Terry j
place, where he was living |
when he died. We next hear
of him about the year 1813.
It, was in those days when
giants walked the soil of Miss
issippi and shook the Capitol
ui Washington, In thosedays
Miss, had hut two Congres
sional Districts; Prentiss and
Word had just served then
time in Congress. Jacob
Thompson and the distin
guished Albert G. Brown
succeeded them,and went out
of office,and the people elect
ed Brown to preside over this
Judicial District, which at
that time embraced at least
one third of the area of the
whole State, expending from
the boundaries of Hinds
county to the seashore, and
the Alabama line, including
some of tlie river counties.—
When A G. Brown was call
ed to take a higher place, 1
think the Governor’s clmir,;
Tlios. A. Willis was chosen
his successor to preside as j
Judge over this vast district, I
• ii which position he was el- i
ected several successive times
till death overtook him, still
in his harness. In Hancock
County Miss., on the 25th of
September 1817, he laid Ins
robe of office aside forever,
and folded the ermine ot the
State, which he hal so long!
and faithfully upheld with
honor and dignity. The Gii!- i
lit in Argus,a paper published
at Gallatin Copiah co., in j
that day,said ofhimpPosessed
of a powerful natural intellect,
improved by deep thought
and long experience, he had
admirably qualified himself
for the stations to which his
friends had so'often called
him.’ I{3 vyas an able lawyei;
and a profound jurist, and it i
is said that it was rarely if i
vyer, that his decisions were ■
/ * '
_ ’ Ar;- V .3xN-.",
j reversed by the superior
j courts. He wielded the sword
j <d .Justice with the hand of a
t true Knight, and while he
: was the terror of the evil-do
er,!ie was the pride and da
i light of the jus*. A friend of
| the writer, who was his cb
; temporary, and whose gray
haiis yet honor the streets oi
; Crystal Springs, remarked to
him that lie had often atten
ideit theCourts of .J ustice Wi!
I is. and that he looked more
like a J edge, than any man
he ever saw upon the bench,
; bis massiyo brow was the
Sin one of intellect, bis pierc
ing eye under excitement was
the gleam of the lightiiing’s
{ Hash, and his lips indicated
I immovable lirmncss, and yet
| his heart was as tender as a
j woman’s, and his sympathies
bound-ess as the skies.
I !
He was a eoiisnmnate dis
j ripSiruirion.and order was »hc
rule of tils life. He was es
teemed stud respected by the |
Bar on the entire round of
I bis Circuit. As an instance
of which, wo give the follow

presided at the present term j
of the OircuitCourt of Adams
county ivftcr a most laborious
ses.-i .-n, cannot suffer this op

Bf onticclio Bliss..the meeting I
being presided over hv Win
A Stone, W. M. P. <?., and
the venerable Will. V«nuer<
son, that Nestor of the Bliss.,
Bar as Secretary. He was a
member of the Methodist
Church, and died in the full
assurance'of faith. In Ins I
coniiiot with the world he j
coined a competency and had
lie lived it is probable that he
would, by the strength of his
j intellect and the vigor of his
jetlergy have gained the top
| most round of the ladder of
fame by the side of his ilius
t rions cofemporanesPrentiss,
Brown, and the immortal
Davis! He was the lather of
S daughters and 2 sons, whose
descendants are scattered all
over this section, and are
| highly esteemed by a!! who
j know them. His son, Thos.
j H Willis, fell af the battle of
j Shiloh, and like hi- father
!died as brave as Julius C;e.->~
jar, and as calms as Socrates
j under tlie eyes of his chief
i tain, Albert Sydney John
son whose precious life blood
ebbed out a few moments af
•iei in the triumphant mom
ent of victory’.
Father and son lie side by
side m (he embrace of death,
in the arms of the last, long
sleep,in the Cemetery at Old
Crystal Springs.
Thus we are reminded that
our lathers who settled this
beautiful country of ours and
bequeathed it to as, with all
its wealth and bounty, and I
blessings were men of brains j
and character and moral
worth—ISo let their deeeml
ants cherish their memory,
and practice their virtues.—

himself unsuitable for the po

While this commitee wasj

called on to address the meet
ing. Capt. Huddleston, can-!
didate lor the Senate, in res-!
ponse to the loud and numer
ous calls for him,relieved the
.suspense of the house—j
to its delight, by relating
some anecdotes illustrative
of bis position before the
people, in which the Con

he !s a tried, true, and unfa!
tered Democrat. Jno. W Wei !

and was diselmigcd.
On motion,the present Ex ,
ecutivo Commitee* was dis-j
charg’d with the thanks of the j
county Democracy for Its ef

ment.
The following named gen
tlemen were announced for a
new County Executive Coni'
mi'tee and confirmed by the
Convention, viz: J. M. Ed

‘or. Win, Mome, T. I’. Short,
Sam Harper, Preston Turn
age, Will, Hut ledge, C. C
Buchanan, Turn Bigland ami
D. I). Pridgen.
After debate, the delegates
were instructed to vote for
the candidate or candidates
of this county, now in the
fold, as lung as there is a rea
sonable hope for a nomina
tion,
Capt. Buchanan staved that
it was understood that Copi
ah county would not demand
her right to participate in the
nomination; therefore he:*og
graded Mount Carmel as I in
most central point for the
three counties. Col. Rutledge
insisted that as ir was not a
known fact that Copiah vvo’ld
not demand her right to par*,
ticipate, and that as Mount
Carmel had no hotel, or otli
er accomodation for a conven
tion, some other point more
central, ought to ho suggest
ed bv the meeting. There
fore he suggested '.Vestvilla.
Capt. Buchanan withdrew hi<
suggestion, and a rising vote
was taken resulting in West
ville as tlie place. Capt. Hud
dleston suggested the first
Monday in July as the time,
and as there was no other
suggesiion, the Convention
by a rising yote concurred.
It was ordered that the
West ville .News and Wesson
Herald be furnished with t.lie
proceedings of this meeting
and other papers of the diS'
trii-i be requested to copy.
The Convention after a vote
of thanks, to the Chairman,
adjourned, sine die.

ACtood Agricultural Creed
Fanner’s -Companion; Ac
cording to the Canada Fann
er, the agriculturists of Can
ad a met. in convention and
adopted for themselves the
following creed’: We believe
in small fa; ms and thorough
eulvitatiou; wo believe thaf
tho soil lives to eat as well as
the owner, and ought, there
I fore, to he well manured; we
- believe in going to the bot
tom of things, and therefore
deep ploughing, and enough
of it, all the better if it be a
Mibsoil plough.; we believe in
large crops, which leave the
| land belter than they found
jit—making both farm and far
mer rich at, once; we believe
i oat every farm should own
a good fanner; we believe that
the fertilizer of of any soil is
i spirit of'indust ry, enterprise
'and iutellig’notgwitbout these,
lime, gypsum, and guano
' would be of little use; we be
Sleyein good fences.good farm
houses, good oreharts, and
good children enough to gath
er the fruit; we believe in a
clean kitchen, a neat wife in
it; and a clean conscience; we
believe that to ask a man’s
advice is not stooping, but of
groat benefit; we believe that
to keep a place for everything
and everything jti its pl$ce,
saves many a step,and is pret
ty sure !_o lead to good tools
and to keep them in good or j
der; we believe that kindness
to stock, like good shelter, is
saving of fodder; we believe
that if is a good thing to keep
an eye on experiments; and
note all, goad and bad; we be
lieve that it is agood thing to
sell giwin when it is ready;
we believe in producing the
best but tier and cheese, and
maikefiiig it when it is ready.
Aii this may certainly" bo
commended as sound ’doc-1

Whitewash That will Last.
Many have asked meabr-u.t:
whitevvassi that, will last. To'
answer all piease publish my
directions in your paper for
Nov. 10th, 1881, and oblige,
for it will save me letters of
reply and savetHonsaads from
the necessity of white washing
every year:
‘A whitewash that \vcH last
several years costs but little
mure than one that will wash
and rub tiffin as many mouths,
as they usually do.' Take of
free, burned lime a peck and
slack it with hot water, add y
peck of salt, disolvcd in hot
w ater, 3 pounds of rice flour
i' . :J
dissolved i:i warm water, 1
pound of glue dissolved in,
wurm water. 1 pound of Span
ish white. Stir it altogether
and let it stand 3 or 4 days
he 1 oio»,using. Stir if well ev
ery day. When used heat tn
a Kettle and [>ut it on hot. A
pound of yellow 'ochre will
give a pleasant cream color.
?da!:e it with care and put
it on hot, and my word for it,
jt. will last ton times as long
as ordinary wash. It lasted
weli 8 years on my cook house.
A wash similar to this has
been long used on the public
buildings in Washington.—
The‘White House’ received
its name from tho effects of
this wash.-—Southern Herald.

We assert without fear of contradic -
tion that Bailey's Saline Aperient is
cheaper and iuoro pleasent than any pills
ever made for constipation, torpid liver
or sick headache, that it never produces
the least unpleasant feeling,and its action,
more prompt than any pill made. It is «
terrible enemy to the pill family, driving
them from every fireside. It is so nice,
pleasant, cleanly, and prompt in action,
whether on steamboats, railroads, hotels
or at home, that ail ladies are delighted.
