Memory ol Mrs. Ida itillnpi.
With blinded eyes we could not see
The ruesdonger God sent,
Nor note the length of that glnd light
That marked the way they weiit !
But if wc could have seen, li! me, . .
Like one who saw of old,
Wc would have cried aloud with Joy
Such glory to behold.
We could not hear with deafened cars
One w ord of all their song
Nor catch the music as it rolled
The vaulted space along!
But if we could, what ecutaoy
Would thrill our hearts today,
To know that rapture of sweet sound
Encompassed all her way.
With human feet we could not go
' Where she and they w ent in
But in that perfect home of God
There is no pain no sin.
Could we have walked one little step
. Along its golden way,
We 'd only grieve that longer yet
(iod wills us here to stay.
To lose the light of earth, that sigTit
May see a heavenly throng
To lose the sound of earth, that ears
May hear an angel song !
To walk no njore with human feet,
That we may learn to fly
Makes this assurance very sweet,
Ourl takes us when we die.
Death of irira. Ida Sjkes Itillnps.
Our entire community was shocked
on Thursday evening last when tho
information wont forth from tho
griof-encircled residence of Thomas
Carlton Billups, that the wife of his
bosom the mother of Lib children,
and the idol of his heart, was dead.
Alout 0 o'clock on Thursday even
ing last, this sweet and beautiful hu
man llowor, which had shed its frag
rance upon one of the lovliost homos
of our city for so many years, after
an illness of two or .three weeks, and
a 6trngglo with that fell disenso ty
phoid fever, surrendered her noble
spirit to the unerring archer, and by
tho soft aud loving hand of her Ma
ker was transplanted to His garden
in Heaven, there to bloom in ever
lasting lovliness aud beauty, to await
tho coming of thoso dear ones whom
she had left on earth.
The hour seemed appropriate to
such a death. Just as the sun wus
going down, and shedding its even
ing rays upon tfc part h," and "tho
bright jewelry of heaven was begin
ning to deck the blue vault above, .
her sweet spirit shook off its tene
ment of clay and winged its Way to
tho companionship of angels beyond
tho skies.
In the flush and bloom of early
womanhood, 'aurrounded by every
thing calculated to make life worth
living for, a tender, kind, and do
voted husband, sweet aud affection
ate children and hosts of loving rel
atives and frionds, it does sewni that
tho fates were cruel in taking her
away. But God does nothing wrong.
Everything He does is right, and
poor, frail humanity should uncom
plainingly yield to his will.
In the death of this sweet and no
ble woman, so good, accomplished,
active and useful, tho words of the
poet seemed to be verified:
"The good die flint ;
But those whose hearts are dry as sum
mer's dust
Burn'to the Boekets."
Mrs. Billups was born in Colum
bus, Miss., in February .1858. She
was tho daughter of the late James
W. and Marcolla Sykes, who, if not
natives, were reared in this city. In
her early childhood, death deprived
her of her parents and she was left
solely to the guardian care of hor
grandparents, who watched over her,
together with an older sister and
younger brother, with tender care
aud unceasing solicitude and love.
Everything that wealth could afford
was hers. She had all the advanta
ges afforded by the best feluale in
stitutions of learning, while her
heart training in all tho Christian
virtues and graces was thorough,
constant and never neglected. From
that early period, when she went
through her morning and evening
worship at her mother's knee, to tho
hour when hor -sweet spirit calmly
and uncomplainingly recognized tho
call of her Maker to "come up
higher," she was a devout aud hum
ble follower of the meek and lowly
Jesus. '
From her early childhood sho was
remarkable for a sweet, gentlo and
confiding nature, and this grace
shone with increasing beauty and
peculiar lustre in the tedious hours
of her illness. No jetulent expres
sion ever escaped her lips; all that
was dono for her she regarded, &r
well done, and would often sweetly
smile and express her thanks.
The writer of this brief and im
perfect tribute has been struck with
her uncommon intellectual powers
her sound and cultivated under
standing, together with the quickness
and ' liveliness of her perception,
which gave beauty and brilliancy to
her conversational powers, and emi
nently fitted her to adorn the social
circle, and to give and receive pleas
ure from the interchanges of friend
ship. In her 18th year she was married
to Thos. C. Billups, with whom she
lived up to the hour of her death in
unalloyed wifely devotion. She left
four children and a tender and devo
ted husband to mourn her death, to
whom sho left tho legacy of a Chr'
tian life,; which should constantly
shine along their pathway to guide
them to the better land to which she
has gone. Mrs. Billups was a strict
member of the Methodist Episcopal
church, to whose tenets and doc
trines she was warmly attached and
thoroughly devoted, and yet no nar
row sectarianism ever marred the
symmetry and beauty of her christian
lifo. Liberal to all denominations, em
inently distinguished for her charity
and benevolence to the poor, unosten
tatious and unassuming, she moved
along the pathways of life leaving in
her every step shining evidonces of
the christian principles which guided
and controlled hor life. Thus bless
ed and thus surrounded, it does seem
a cruol fate, to be thus cut off, when
she had scarcely reached the meridian
of life, and yet, this true woman,
wife and mother repined not at the
decree which called her to resign
these enjoyments, "ere the evil days
had come, or the years drawn nigh,
in which she had no pleasure."
Whilo she preferred to live, she fear
ed not to die. With gentle and con
fiding trust in God as her Father
(for sho loved to think of him as such)
and in Jesus as her Savior, she faced
the King of terrors unappalled and
undaunted and shrank not from his
icy touch, which, though it withered
hor mortal frame, had no powor
vet: tho hoavon-bom and heaven-go
ing inmato. Our entire community
deeply sympathize with the father
and grief-stricken children, in their
deep and irreparable affliction, and
trust that IJ.e, who "tempereth the
wind to tho shorn lamb," will ever
be with them. The funeral of Mrs.
Billups took place on yesterday at
tho M. E. Church. Rev. Mr. Oakley
preached an eloquent and appropri
ate sermon to an immense congrega
tion, after which the remains were
buried in Odd Fellows Cemetery.

Keit Wednesday is to be a red letter day

bave some friends that will secure the of

close and exciting one from State Senator
down to Constable, and some close election
eering will be done between now snd the
time for casting ballots. The grand dem
ocratic rally at the Court House Tuesday
night should bring every one out to hear
tUespicy speeches that are to emanate from
the.various candidates, and I hope to see a

Watt Clay is in town. He is of the illus
trious Clay family of Mississippi and needs
no introduction to Columbus people, being
a son of Dr. Matt Clay, well known in
Lowndes. He was one of the attendants
at the barbecue and picnic at frowell's the
other (fay, and his presence contributed
greatly to the pleasure of the day. He is a
great joker, and one has only to look into
hii rugged butstrong countenance to see
lie has an inexhaustible supply of good
stories to entertain you wiih. And they
are not the funny stories that are published
in books, either. No one enjoys a good
joke better than Mr. Baldwin, and as he
went out with Matt Clay it must be pre
sumed he has a good time. J can picture
no more refreshing scene to my mind than
that of Mr. Baldwin listening attentively
to Matt Clay's Jokes, as they rode along the
dusty road last Thursday en route to the
picnic. I fancy 1 see his countenance
beaming with smiles, and see him evapora
ting his brow with the end of his linen
duster, muttering, ' warm," (sotto voice,
rising inflection), periodically between
each joke. But I diverge. I was speaking
of Mutt Clay, whose good nature and jovial
disposition never showed up better than
on the occasion referred to. He is one of
the men you like to meet in life, for he
nftkes thing ploasanter and brighter by
his presence
The fertility of a man's imagination milst
indeed be wonderful for him to .Mil four
columns of space with locals, a vast num
ber of which are absolutely unknown to
anyone but the writer, pud the -thought of
drawing on my already overdrawn imagin
ation for items to load up Scribbler's col
umn, is an unpleasant one, and one that I
would much rather relieve my mind of bv
postponing the appearance of Scribbler for
uotbcj" week, But this cannot be done,
fortScribbler's column is i permanent feat
ure of the Sunday Dispatch, and peup'a are
beginning to look forward to it. I do not
flatter myself that this is the result of any
particular merit in its writing, but attrib
ute it solely to one reason, and that is hu
man nut u re. People like to see their names
in print, and especially when accompanied
by a few adjectives, and as my column
heretofere has been a series of compliments,
yoti can easily account for its popularity.
Hereafter I intend writing what I think
regardless, and if it does not meet with
your approbation, I hope vou will not
wreck your wrath a;ninst this paper by
stopping your subscription and not pay
ing up what is due. lean conceive of no
meaner man than tiio one who stops his
paper becaire you have antagonized his
opinion or belief, snd then refuses to pay
for it. I suppose it is clearly apparent by
this time that I have iittle to write about
this week, else 1 wouldn't scribble about
mean men, delinquent subscribers, et al.,
and if this is your opinion,-1 can say you
are in a large measure correct. I have very
little to write about, hut will do my best,
so here goes.
I would that it were in the power of niy
feeble pen to paint a just and wdtthy trib
ute to sho that has goae to join the vast
unknown! I would that my feeble voice
might say a word or sing some song that
embodied in it the g.ace and charm of her
life! I would that mine eye might express a
look that indexed the emotions of sadness
that the writer feels! I wish that mine
ear might fathom the length and depth of
the wave of grief and sadness that has
swept this community! Then would I be
prepared to speak of her. I stand with
that cumber who viewed the beautiful
symmetry of hor life from afaroQ. and
whose misfortune it was nut to know her
better, being scarcely within the vast
th long known a her acquaintances. But
the memory of this acquaintance comes lo
me, forcibly now that Mrs. Ida Rillups is
no more; and it shall he cherished by me
throught the countless years to come as one
of the Bweetest memories of my life. I
write now as a Mikado, and shall I tell
Scribbler's readers otjutir last meeting with
Mrs. Billups?. It was in April a beauti
ful April night and a fuirer moonlight
never lighted np the spacious flowered
yard, as we silently stole our way beneath
the window where we commenced our
serenade. We had just finished onr last
song, when our departure was arrested by
Mrs. Billnps, whose cordial invitalien to
enter and partake of the dainty lunch set
for us knew no refusal, and we entered her
beautiful home greeted by a welcome that
every feature Sf her beautiful face showed.
Aud shall we ever forget the delightful
moments spent in the presence of herself
and ber beautiful family? lean answer
for the Mika.los, No! they will remain
with us always. It was when saying good
bye that some one suggested that we- sing
anothor long, and Fate must have made
the selection, for the hidden meaning and
significance of our farewell number was
never revealed to us until late Thursday
evening. We sang fhat beautiful ballad,
"Never to Meet Again."
