Kimball, which will be deeply regretted throughout the South, anil especially in Atlanta, (la., his home. He died at the residence of his brother, K. N. Kimball, in Ilrookline, near lloston, late Sunday night. Mr. Kimball had been living in Atlanta twenty-five years subsequent to the war. He was one of the moving spirits in the development of several railroad enterprises of the South, not only in investing a large part of his own fortune, but bringing a large amount of Northern and foreign capital into the country. Almost the last enterprise with which he was identified was the open ing of a new railroad line in Oregon. He was a banker and dealer in high class securities, having offices in Atlanta, New York and London. He considered Atlanta as his home, although he has resided for the past few years in New York city. He was a close friend of the late Henry W. (Irady, of the Atlanta Constitution. Mr. Kimball gave munificently to the city of Atlanta and donated the capital building to the State of Georgia. He was the proprietor of the Kimball House, in Atlanta, and was the organizer of the Pullman Palace Car Company. Mr. Kimball was the director general of the Atlanta Cotton Exposi tion last year, and during the World's Fair he was president of the board of judges and took an active part in promoting the welfare of the exposition. There is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put togother, aiid until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. Fo'r a great many years doctors pronouueed it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. iScience has proven catarrh to be a consti tutional disease, and, therefore, requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu tional cure on the market. It is taken in ternally in doss from 10 drops to a tea spoonful.

A Realistic Romance of Henderson, in Which a Number of Prominent Business Men Take a Very Conspicu ous Part. Written for the Gold Leak.

Of course they accented, and were soon bidding their friends adiea. i - A few weeks &ub e(;uent to the above conversation a tn vel-stamed party arrived at Henderson. Our friend, Uncle Josh, was in charge and he led them straightway to Massenburg's Hotel. Depositing their baggage aud .t 11 il securing rooms, me oiu genuemau began to grow talkative. "This," said he, " is a typical Southern hotel of the best class. 1 have known Jim Masseuburg, the proprietor, for years mil he is mine host after mine own heart. A thorough business man, endowed with that delightful intuition that makes a guest feel at home, com fortable, contented, and in mighty good luck. Why, he treats his guests so friendly that you'd be sure he was a candidate for constable, or something. There is only one Jim Massenburg, uid he runs the best hotel in North Carolina. The house is one of con venience; the apartments are well furnished; and the cuisiue Well, if any body thinks they can feed better than friend Masseuburg they'll have to .ret out of this market. You can make yourselves at home here till the house I have deeded to you is m readiness." After breakfast they were ready to make the rounds of the town to get the outfit for house keepiug. ' As I have already provided you with a cage for your bird," said Uncle Josh, the first thing we'll look after furnishings for it." Hereupon Polly energetically declared that she had heard so much about Alex. T. Barnes' fin 11 i lure establishment that she had decided to go there. The result was that they were ushered into such a bewildering display that the girl was at first at a loss how to select. But she soon yielded to the seductiveness of a magnificent parlor suite, a bed room set in oak, antique finish, fiat would have done credit to old Antiquity herself. To this she added a diuing- rinmi set with all accessories, together with carpets, mattings, &c, and didn't forget a most convenient and orna mental writing desk for "Hubby" Charles. " A pretty good start," said the old man, " and now we'll go to Daniel & Co's hardware store for something in his line." Here Polly's hojsewifely instincts had full play in marvels of kitchen apparatus. There is not an establishment in the country that carries a more comprehensive stock of household furnishings. Every possible piece of kitchen furniture, from a. tin dipper to a cooking stove is here in all 6tyles and variety. If Polly fads to accomplish wonders in the culinary art, it will not be for want of superior cooking utensils, for she purchased a " Parmer Girl"' cook stove with all equipments needed in a well regulated kitchen, and oue of the celebrated " King Heaters," of which she declared Mie had heard so much. Let's see I promised you a gold watch, didn't I ?" queried Uncle Josh of Polly, "and E. E. Hight & Co's is the very place to get one cheap." Thereupon the old man gallantly acquitted himself of the promise and then directed Polly's attention to the superior stock of silverware carried by this firm. " There is no other such house in town," said he, " and I wil guarantee tue quality to be me very best. Pick out your family clock while here, he added. " Hight & Co. carry a magmncent line, as you will see jou t iorgei another tact," he con tinued, "if ever you unfortunately need optical goods, this is the place to come. They have everything required to improve affected eyes, and say. Charley, when that old ' turnip' of yours breaks down, remember Mr Hight can fix her up in ship shape." "Oh!" ejaculated Polly, as they halted before a window, what a perfect ly lovely slipper." "les,"said Uncle Josh, "Davis & Rose's stock cau't be equalled in style and extent in this section. Go iu, look it over aud get acquainted." It might have been pol icy not to have extended that iuvita tiou, had not L nele Josh known what wise economy it is to trade with Davis & Hose, for Polly found goods and prices so seductive that she purchased an outfit from a comfortable house slipper to a handsome walking boot Charley invested iu gents' hue shoes winie L nele Josh indulged m a stout pair tor his own use. No one needing footwear cau resist the styles and prices offered by Davis & Rose. "Now I must have an album, Uncle Josh, exclaimed Polly, "aud "les, and a Bible with a bis family register,' religiously observed the old man, "so now we'll go to Edwin Ste phens book store. You'll find many articles iudispensable for the parlor as well as the library there, and as for variety Mr. Stephens has an uuequalled biock. 5.0 nere roily s purchases in Liuueu miscellaneous books, fancy ta tiouery, all the latest agonies, brica brac of all manner for the centre-table, heuse decorations, wall paper, pictures, picture frames, hammocks aud such. Polly remarked to the generous old uncle, "Why, I don't know when to quit buying. Mr. Stephens sells such nice goods and so cheap, too." " While I think ofit," remarked Uncle Josh, as they reached the street, "I must run over to the Citizens Bank and get another check book. Come with me and get acquainted with Mr. J. IL' Owen, the President, and Mr. W. A. Hunt, the Casnier, tor, 01 course, you will do business with them and it is always mort pleasant to be personally acquainted with the people vou have dealings of this kind with. The bank is as solid as the base of the universe, and has a strong working capital. You will find the officials clever and courteous gentleman, ever ready to extend any accommodations compatible with business principles." "I would like tomakeyouacquainieu with Dr. Francis A. Macon, my den tist friend, also," said theoldman. "If yon ever nave 10 Hupuiemeui jwm natural teeth" "Ugn: uon i you mention false teeth to me," cried Polly. "I'll never carry 'pearly lies' in my mouth if I go toothless," "Oh, as for that." laughed Uncle Josh, "if you'll only consult a good dentist in time you can save the catastrophe. Dr. Macon, for instance, is wonderfully expert in saving natural teeth, and he has the skill and every mechanical appliance neceesary to do his work with the least discomfort to his patrons." " Halt !" commanded Uncle Josh as the party came in front of Melville Dorsey's handsome drugstore. " Walk ri"ht in." " Why, Uncle, we're not sick, and" " Guess I know that, but I suspect it won't be long before this young man begins to take an interest in matters ot paregoric aua " U-n-c-l-o !" " Well go in anyway, Pollv mav find some toilet articles she wants." Sun enouzh before leaving she was loaded down with combs, hrushes. face powders, and ounces unon ounces of due imported perfumes " Don't forget," added Uncle Josh, " to come here with your prescriptions as Mr. Dorsey and his clerks are com petent pharmacists and use only pure and wholesome drugs." The old man then invited his wards to take a treat nt. Dorsev'9 soda fount and ordered it to " sizz" till thev had all they could drink. " You may want something m the ine of fine printing," said Uncle Josh to Charles, " aud likely as not roily must have some nice visiting cards. Right across the street there is th place to get such as that. Mr. Pryce T. Jones conducts a first-class job printing establishment and you will be pleased with both his work ana prices Every merchant and business man should use good, neat stationery something that will 'catch the eye,' so to speak, of his customers. It is nec essary. in order to get good printing, to co to those who are prepared to do it in the best manner, with a touch of beauty and in a style that is up-to-date in every particular. It requires mate rial and experience to do thes things, aud Mr. Jones has both." At this lioint. somewhat to the con fusion of Charles, the old man indulged in a half serious criticism of his per sonal appearance. " Now, young man, let me give you a pointer," remarked the ireuerous old uncle. "Do not understand me to say that clothes make the man, but I do affirm that they make the nice appearing man. You are decidedly oil' style for a townsman," said he, " and we'd better so to Barnes' Clothins Store." After Charles had fitted himself in a neat late style suit, from the piles of garments that cover the tables of this extensively stocked establishment, Uncle Josh declared " Now vou look like a newly married man and city chap sure enough Before leaving, having found goods and prices irresistible, Charles also invested in a complete outfit of gents' furnishings, from the latest style hat to a dozen shirts, collars, cuffs, hosiery, handkerchiefs, ties, &c. Barnes' Cloth ing Store is not to be undersold by any similar house in the State. Just here Uncle Josh suggested a resort to some place of refreshment. At the refreshment table the old man waxed philosophical. "Never neglect your larder, that important adjunct to housekeeping control mas culine temper. To that end you must patronize a grocer on whom you can depend tor honest goods. Through a long term of dealing I have found Covington & Stewart perfectly relia ble. You will find them careful deal ers, always full stocked with every possible thing in the line of staple aud fancy groceries, fresh and first-class, no shelf-worn goods there while the prices are down to brass tacks" "I declare, Uncle," exclaimed Char ley, "there goes a handsome phseton; I must have one like it for the girl "Jiaiougli said, you shall nave one just like that if you wish," remarked the old man. "You see my friends Hams, Gooch X Co. conduct a car riage repository that for variety and excellence of stock can not be beaten They carry surreys, carriages, buggies and pluetons of leading makes and styles, besides single and two-horse wagons of the best make and are satisfied with a moderate profit. Polly was soon the possessor of a handsome carriage. "And if you ever take a notion logo to farming and make bright tobacco for the sale of which this market stands in the front, Harris' Warehouse is the place to sell it. There you will always get highest prices tor your product aud be assured of fair dealing and clever treatment," said Uncle Josh by way of a little side remark to nephew Charley "As you are going to keep a horse," remarked Uncle Josh, "you'll need harness. The boss horse milliner in this town is L. T. Howard. He uses only first-class material and gives per sonal supervision to the minutest detail of manufacture. There is nothing in this hue that cau not be had of him heavy and light, single and double, plain and fancy, work and buggy bar ness. He has them all in stock, be sides every other kind of turf goods imaginable." After a visit to the har ness establishment of Mr. Howard, Charley said he thought "if a man couian 1 get sausnea it was nis own fault," and he expressed himself pleased with Mr. Howard's candor and fairness. "Oh, say, Uncle," exclaimed Polly, "where can I go for some dry g-ds? inn uress is hardly suitable, I must admit." "Well, my girl, if you want to select from oue of the most exten sively stocked establishments in the city, we will go back to Davis & Rose's where we went this morning to buy shoes. They carry a stock of dress goods that for variety and real value is seldom seen outside the large metro politan cities. They have all the la test weaves in fashionable dress goods and you are sure to be guided right in your selections. You have already tound Davis ac Rose pleasant to deal with and their employees polite and expert, while the prices cannot be du plicated. "Law, Sakes!" suddenly exclaimed Uncle Josh, "all this trading and shop ping round town has caused me to for get one of the greatest essentials to fu ture existence. I have heard it said that newly married folks could live on love and scenery, but au old man of experience knows better . Your table would look slim without bread, it's the staff of life, you know. Polly, you THE HENDERSON GOLD LEAF must come with me to Whitmore's bakery. His bread, pies, cakes and nick-nacks are couceded by all to be the finest on earth. Remember, Charley, there is no use of your 'ootsy tootsy' bothering herself much about cooking, so long as there is a good baker in town like Mr. Whitmore." At the bakery Polly satisfied her sweet tooth by get ting several pounds of fine confections, of which Whitmore keeps the largest and choicest stock in town. While the old gentleman was pon dering where to go next, Polly suddenly asked: "Uncle, where cau I find a millinery establishment?" "Goodness me," exclaimed Uncle Josh, "I had almost forgot that women wore hats aud bonuets with flower gardens and birds' wings on them. Why, right across there iu that big building of S. & C. Watkins' you'll find everything you are looking for in millienry. Miss Thomas will take pleasure iu waiting on you and she has ou haud this season one of the nicest stocks to be lounu in the city. You can get what you want there, the latest styles aud lowest prices being her motto. She has the ex perience which guarantees your work will be done by a competent artist. And by the way she will show you a choice lot of summer goods, sailors. new shapes in white and colors, &c." "Those house fixings remind me," said the old man, "that you haven't got your dishes yet. The most famous stock in extent, quality and complete ness can be found right here at Y at- kins' and while we are about it we might as well make a complete job and save time and trouble. No use to go elsewhere to do better." But the av erage reader need not be told what an array of table-ware Polly had to select from, for there isn't positively, a thin in the line of China, crockery, glass or porcelain needed for use or ornament in any part of the house that cannot be found at S. & C. Wtkins' in indefinite variety and at wonderfully low prices Thev also have a splendid stock of lamps ot every description, and cutlery in abundance. Polly's order suggested her thorough appreciation. LBy the way," exclaimed Uncle Josh, with a parental air, "the next thing to look after is the material tor those improvements which are abso lutely necessary. Come with me and I'll introduce you to D. W. Hardee, who is the principal dealer in that line here. He carries the most complete stock of building materials iu the coun trv everything from the sills for the foundation to the 6hingles for the roof, including doors, windows, sash, blinds, mouldings, etc., also lime and cement. It is a pleasure to deal with Mr. Har dee, for his greatest aim is to give sat isfaction to every customer. Charley found what he wanted and remarked to Uncle Josh that he was convinced that Hardee is a pretty good man to tie to." " Now," cried the old gentleman, the next thing we must have a picture of this crowd, in good old fashioned style. We'll go to the photograph gallery, and Ilouff Bros, have a first class one. Their pictures are wonder ful in fidelity and finish. I want oue full-sized photo for my study and some small ones for my friends. Ilouff Bros. are famous for successful enlarging, and I want to give you a life-size rep resentation of ' yours truly.' They have the souls of true artists, and their work is a labor of love in which they will not stop short of perfection." At last the day's work was finished ; so they repaired to the hotel, some what wearied, but a bottle of wine Uncle Josh had ordered up from S. S. Whitten's soou revived them into a cheery mood. While enjoying the sparkling beverage, Uncle Josh warned the young folks against the evils of over-indulgence in drink of any kiud, but vouchsafed this information, how ever, that on certain occasions, wines would doubtless be necessary also to have something strictly pure about the house for medicinal purposes; that Mr. Whitten was the proper person to apply to for these extras, aud he con tinued, in addition to keeping a full stock of the best in his line, Mr. Whitten also bottles all kinds of soft drinks and can supply the trade with ginger ale, soda, sarsaparilla, and the like. Upon summing up the wonderful events of the day, Polly begau to volubly express her thanks. "You have bought us everything," she exclaimed. " Only one thing," replied Uncle Josh, reflectively, " but I can remedy that. Alex T. Barnes, the furniture man, always has a nice line of them and you can get one whenever you want it; I'll pay for the best." " W-h-y," exclaimed Polly with great surprise, "Uncle, what can it be?" " Yes, Barnes has a large stock, all styles and prices, beautifully uphol stered, with canopy top, open and " But Polly had fainted.

The Washington correspondent of the Charlotte Observer says the expla nation of ex-Congressman Bunn's being appointed post master at Rocky Mount is that finding opposition to his nomi nation of Mr. Wilcox, who resides in the Nash county portion of the town, he resolved, after discovering that the opposition would not be withdrawn, to take the appointment himself and let Mr. Wilcox be assistant.

I have repeatedly canvassed the State. I was indorsed by three btates, at the beginning of this administration, for a consul treueralship. home cowardly Democratic journals in North Carolina have attempted to shield Ransom from my letter, being unable to deny the facts and conclusions stated therein. I demand fair treatment. Your naoer is one of the Greatest of the country. I do not think you would intentionally misconstrue my letter addressed to ex-Senator Ransom, but the above construction is not fair. While I incidentally touched upon the trlarine: inconsistencies of this adminis tration and the last Congress, and shall condemn them unqualifiedly, it must be patent to every one that the main object of my letter was to expose and denounce Minister M.
