Robinson, died at her home, near Level Land, last Friday, after an ill? ness of about a week. She was only 14 years of age, and possessed a sweet, gen? tle disposition, and was a general favorite with all of her friends. Tbe announce? ment of her death was a great shock to ber friends, many of whom had not heard of her illness. On Saturday afternoon her remains were buried at Little River Church, Rev. J. J. Farmer conducting the funeral services in the presence of a large crowd of bereaved relatives and friends. The Lompoe (Cal.) Record, of Septem? ber 23rd, says: "The Rev. A. T. Dunlap will preach in Hargrove Chapel Sunday morning for the last time on this coast. From here, he goes to South Carolina to live and continue his work. No one has yet come to this community, who, in three years' acquaintance has been more highly respected than Mr. Dunlap, and 'tis with sincere regret that his large circle of friends consent to his departure. His going is made necessary by the illness of his little eon, who is now in the South with Mrs. Dunlap who awaits the coming of the father, soon to be with them. The best wishes of his Church and the commu? nity go with him and his good wife to their now field of labors in tbe South ; and we assure those with whom Elder Dunlap may be called to labor, that a more conscientious, faithful, or devoted pastor, never took a charge." The Hartwell (Ga.) Swn, of last Friday, says : "The remains of Mr. W. R. Cooloy, who was buried in the Hartwell cemetery, were exhumed on Monday and removed to South Carolina for re-interment. The body was buried exactly two years previ? ous to the day it was taken up. The re? moval was not accomplished wlthont dif? ficulty; tbe coffin fell to pieces and tbt decaying body dropped to the ground. The body was about half decomposed and the stench was horrible. Mr. Cooley died from a malignant case of typhoid fever, and it was the intention of tbe friends of the deceased to take him to South Caro? lina for burial then, but the conditions were such as demanded a hasty burial. Last year an attempt was made to make tbe removal, but the Board of Aldermen, acting under the advice of physicians, re? fused a permit. If there is anything in the germ theory, and if there was dangor I of infection then, there must have been as great if not greater danger at tbe time the exhumation was made. We doubt very much the propriety of allowing it to be done. The sacred sentiments of the friends of the deceased were altogether commend? able and should be tenderly respected, but not to the extent of jeopardizing per-: haps many lives in two States. The re? moval should at least have been deferred until cold weather, In our judgment." The live, energetic firm of 0. F. Jones & Co. have two colnmns of solid facts which they present to the readers of the Intelligencer this week, and we advise every one of you to read and note what they say. As is well known, these gen? tlemen occupy two large storerooms?up? per and lower floois?and carry a stock of goods that can't be cxcellod in any way in this State.
