Employed in a good work.
The Hon. Hines Holt, of
Columbus, Gas, has been in
Richmond for a week or ten days, evening his exclusive attention to the wants and comforts of the sick of his own State.
He yesterday, in company with
Vice President Stephens, visited the
Georgia Hospitals, and in the most glowing and exaited terms if the system and humanity with which they are conducted.
If
Georgia's favorite son,
Mr Stephens, had done nothing else, his devotion this God-like work entitles him to the addiration and gratitude of the people.
He not only visits daily the hospitals, but the couch of every pattent, and with pencil and paper on hand, notes their condition and wants, and es to it that all is done to alleviate the one and supply the other.
Distinguished as have been his services in other departments, in this will be found, when history shall make up his record, the crowning act of his fame.
