It couldn't be called a case of slander, because, “indeed you know” it was not. Still it caused a great stir among tlie ladies, especially those who talk. AVell, liow many of them talk? Why, they all talk J. S. Jones’selling dry goods at such low figures. They say that they can’t see how he can afford to sell so cheaply. AVell, it is true, nevertheless, and to learn more about the matter, just read his new advertisement on the inside of to-day's paper. The above may appear to wear the guise of a sensation, and we wish to say right here that it is a “sensation”— all the remarkably low prices of liis goods, such an extensive line as lie has never had before. The ladies will talk about his new departure anil his low prices regardless of what lie or anyone else may say. I)o not forget the old and popular Milliner, Airs.

Thr Choral I'nion Concert. It will be given on the evening of the 22d, and be a gem of melody. We hear that a lady and gentleman, whose voices are new to our general public, and are superb, have consented to give one or more solos. The programme lias been very carefully prepared, and L’Allegro and 11 Penseroso will have representatives, and perhaps some of the gay, sparkling melodics of Offen bach will be given. AVe have heard it hinted that the proceeds of tlie enter tainment would probably be devoted to the relief of the Femandina sufferers. If Columbus ever had ail institution which was worthy of being sustained it is the Choral Union, for it can be made such as to become a source of frequent unalloyed enjoyment. The Association has some charming singers. The fault with amateurs generally is they sing too slow, and are averse to spirited liar- monies ; yet, the latter are much more effective. The Union has improved greatly, and it will be evidenced in the next concert. Along tlie IVextern Railroad. AA'e see it stated that the AVestern Railroad Company of Alabama is build ing wire fences, commencing at Alont- gomerv, on each sideo! tlie track.

THE OBJECT. In pursuance of a call of Col. F. G. AA'ilkins, Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee, tlie citizens of this county met in the Superior Court room yesterday morning to take some action in reference to the election of a Senator from the Twenty-fourth Sena torial District, and other matters per taining to the Democratic party. The attendance was large for such an occasion. OFFICERS. Col. AA'ilkins stated tlie object of tbe meeting. On motion of Col. Blandford, Col. Wilkins was elected Chairman. Dr. Pool was elected Secretary on motion of Reese Crawford, Esq. MOTION* OF T. J. CHAPPELL, ESQ. T. J. Chappell, Esq., offered the fol lowing ; Whereas, The Democratic party of Aluscogee county has been invited by the Democracy of Chattahoochee and Marion counties to meet them in a Senatorial Convention, to be held in the city of Columbus on the 13th of November, 1877, to take into considera tion the nomination of a Senator; be it, therefore, Resolved, That w e, the Democracy of Aluscogee county, in mass meeting assembled, representing tlie sentiments of the great body of the people of this county, and wishing to meet our Dem ocratic brethren of Chattahoochee and Alarion counties in a spirit of fra ternal kindness, do hereby appoint the following delegates, with power to ap point their alternates, to represent Muscogee county in the coining Sena torial Convention of the 24th Senatorial District: I)r. John E, Bacon, T. J. Nuckolls, A. J. Odom, A. A. Boyd, L. C. Levy, George AV. Radcliff. AMENDED AND ADOPTED. Col. AV. L. Salisbury moved as an amendment to the above that the chair appoint a committee of seven to select the six delegates. The amendment was accepted by Air. Chappell,and the resolution as amended adopted. COMMITTEE. The chair appointed the following as said committee: AV. L. Salisbury, T. J. Nuckolls, M. II. Blandford. D. AA'. Johnson, C. B. Grimes, John E. Bacon and AV. A. Little. REPORT OF COMMITTEE. This committee retired and on re turning reported the following: The committee recommends that the dele gation to the Senatorial Convention be increased to nine and, that this delega tion meet those of Chattahoochee and Alarion and act as instructed by this meeting; anil that the following named gentlemen lie the delegation: J. E. Bacon, T. J. Nuckolls, A. J. Odom, A. A. Boyd, L. C. Levy, G. AV. Radcliff, AA'. L. Salisbury, 1). AV. Johnson and T. J. Chappell. THE INSTRUCTIONS UNDER WHICH DEL EGATES GO. Colonel M. H. Blandford offered tlie following: AA'liereas, Tlie Chairman of the Ex ecutive Committee of tlie Democratic Party of Aluscogee county lias called tlie party together to take into consid eration the action of a meeting recently held in Cusseta, in the county of Chat tahoochee, by certain citizens and Dem ocrats of that county and the county of Alarion ; and Whereas, Our great respect for our Democratic brethren demands that wo should* give said matter our pro found consideration, regarding as we do tlie region of territory forming the 24tli Senatorial District as embracing only owe political division of this State, anil in the selection of a candidate to repre sent that district, we do not think it proper to enquire as to tlie locality of liis residence, or upon which side of a county line or creek he may reside, but rather to look alone to the qualification of such a candidate; and AA’liereas, AVe are unalterably op posed to tlw “rotation system,” a sys tem pregnant with evil to the best in terest of the Democratic party and the State; and AVlicreas, The question of represent ation of nominating conventions is an important one, and should receive our careful attention and consideration, and the delegates to such conventions should be selected on some principle of equity and justice, and not on the arbitrary rule which lias heretofore prevailed in appointing so many dele gates from each county composing the district without regard to population or Democratic voters; and because we think, that, a fair rule would be for each countv to appoint one delegate for every hundred Democratic voters and the fractional part thereof over fifty, ensuring thereby representation to the entire party in the convention, a safe guide to determine the number of Dem ocratic voters in each county would be the vote east in tlie Presidential elec tions, immediately proceeding the as sembling of the convention, this means we think, being the best that is availa ble and the erffe which will nearest ap proximate the truth; and AA'liereas, That if we adopt this plan of apportioning delegates among the several counties composing this dis trict, it will be easy to find the number of delegates to which each county will lie entitled, because the votes cast for the Democratic candidate at the last Presidential election were 1,828 for the county of Aluscogee, 583 for Marion, and 636 for Chattahoochee, under which apportionment, by the above plan, Aluscogee would be entitled to eighteen delegates, Marion six, and Chattahoo chee six, allowing a delegate for each one hundred Democratic voters, anil one for every fractional part thereof over fifty, wliich pro rata of represen tation would make a convention com posed of thirty delegates; and, AA’liereas, AVe think this plan a fair, equal and just one, and founded on principle and not on an unjust and arbitrary rule; be it therefore Resolved, By the Democratic party of Aluscogee: First, That we utterly condemn the system of “rotation” that now prevails, and henceforth will not be bound there by; that we regard such system as dan gerous to tlie best interest of the party, and fraught with mischief to the State. Second, That in the formation of a Convention to nominate candidates, the Democratic voters should alone be re spected, and that we think a fair, equal and just plan would be for each county to be entitled to one delegate for every hundred Democratic voters, anil the fractional part thereof over fifty. Third, That the attention and consid eration of our Democratic brethren of Alarion and Chattahoochee counties is respectfully called to tlie foregoing by tlie Convention to assemble on the 13th inst. in Columbus. The above was adopted unanimously. NO NOMINATION FOR REPRESENTATIVES. Colonel 13. A. Thornton offered tlie following: Resolved, By the Democracy of AIus- eogee county, that the Republican party of Georgia Having dissolved their State organizations, and there being in effect but one party in the State, that we deem it inexpedient to make any nominations for the House of Representatives, but earnestly solicit the voters of this coun ty to select the best men for the posi tions unbiased by any party dictation. Tlie above was adopted. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE TO BE INCREAS ED BY ADDING TWO MEMBERS FROM EACH BEAT. Col. Blandford moved that the present Executive Committee of the Democratic party be continued. Col. Thornton moved to amend by the Chair appointing two more from each town district to serve with the committee. With this amendment the whole was adopted. The meeting then adjourned.

A SigniHennt Incident, Among the speakers at the recent “Church Congress” held in New York, was the Rev. John Fulton, D. D., for merly rector of the Episcopal Church in this city, but more recently of AIo- bile, Ala., (and now living in Wiscon sin,) who closed his remarks with the following significant incident: “There rises to my mind in this con nection an incident which shows that even while going on tlie current of her way the Church can fulfill a grand des tiny in national affairs. “My mind looks back to the Sunday after Robert Lee s sword was gene rously given back to him by Ulysses Grant, liis conqueror; on that Sunday morning, when tlie grass on tlie sol diers’ graves had not rooted itself into greenness, when hearts were bleed ing and desolate, when tlie whole land was in mourning, then came the Church’s call for prayer, and at a thousand altars, led by a thousand priests of this Church, all our people in the Southern land went upon their knees and prayed fos the Commander- in-C’hief of the armies which hail sub dued them. “All through the Southern land the cry went out anil tlie thrill was felt— the thrill of duty recognized and gladly done, the thrill wliich moved these men, coming from the battle field to prayers, to own the kingdom of the Goil of battles andj'ecognize the ilestny that His Provi dence had drawn out from the smoke of battle as the highest destinies God could give to all this nation. Then, sir, and there, under the impulse given by our Church's recognition of the powers that be, began that movement towards the restoration of national unity which makes my reverend brother from Vir- ginia speak gladly and sincerely of the star spangled banner. Thus it comes to-day the watchword of the nation has been taken from our book of Common Prayer, so that all men’s hearts, when they think of their country and that which they hope for it in the future, form their petitions in the language of the Prayer Book, that ‘peace and hap piness, truth and justice, religion and piety, may be established among us for all generations,’” (Applause.) AVhen shall we cease to hear this stuff and falsehood about Gen. Grant giving back the sword to Gen. Lee. It was never intended to be offered him, and never was. AA'e have Gen. Lee’s own word for this. “Didn't Expert to Expend It that H aj.” It was in one of the neighboring courts. Judge Crawford was presiding. An elderly gentleman, a respectable farmer, was concerned in the ease. He could not hear very well. The oppos ing lawyer riled him and he spoke right out in meeting, anil corrected some statement. The Judge, in liis urbane manner, remarked : “You must not in terrupt counsel in the course of the ar gument.” Now tlie hard-fisteil agricul turalist did not catch the words nor meaning, and supposed the J iiilge was taking his side against the lawyer, anil when the latter again asserted some thing the “honest son of toil" shot in his mouth again. Air. Clarke, enter a fine of thirty dollars against Air. .” The farmer heard this, he was uncon scious of having done any harm, and was utterly bewildered, shot up from his seat and as suddenly sit down, eon- eluding as he had made a mess of it thus far, he would subside for the while at least. After court, lie interviewed the Judge and explained matters, showing lie hail utterly misapprehended the situation and meant no offense, and winding up the whole by stating, “I’ve got tin? money with me, but I didn’t expect to spend it that way.” AATio wouldn't have relieved him after that? Judge Crawford did. A Sad I>eatli. Air. Frank H. Harris, known to many of our young men as a classmate at Athens, and to a number of our readers as engineer in charge of construction on the North and South Road, lost his wife on Friday last at Gonzalez, thirteen miles north of Pensacola, where lie was stationed in the roadway service of the Pensacola Railroad. Airs. Harris was a lovely anil attractive lady, and the sym pathy of every mother will go out to her and her bereaved husband and or phan children when they think of her death in her far away home. Tlie little stranger which cost her life lived but a few hours before its spirit winged its flight, to lie followed so closely by its devoted mother. Airs. Harris was buried at Lingston, Ga., the residence of her father, Hon. I. C. Roper, on yes terday. Eec County, Ala. A negro 99 years old, died near Ala- son’s Mill. Col.

At their entertainment last night, in the City Light Guards armory, they drew an audience of some two hundred people, and it was a most enjoyable festival. It would have been creditable to professionals. AA e were really proud of the boys. They created excellent mu sic and lots of fun. For the number of instruments and voices they effected a good chorus. “There's a Letter in the Candle” was well rendered by J. O'Brien. “Gospel Engine,” by E. Bur- rus, was eminently ludicrous. “Speak, only Speak” was admirably sung by Gussie Raiford, with a sweet full tenor voice that was really delicious to iiear. AI. O'Brien gave ns “Gathering up the Shells from the Shore” in splendid style, while the “Rock Ale, Aliss Julid,” of AV. AA r alker, brought down the house. “AA'hat is It?” by AA'alker, Burnis and AI. O’Brien was full jolly. The guitar solo of F. Dudley was very pretty, and the banjo solo of M. O’Brien, the instrument being about as large as he is, had a ringing strain of merriment. Both played well, too. AA'e yet laugh at the representation of “Truthful Jeemes,” acted by F. Dud ley and E. Burrns, as “Old Gent,” and “Truthful Jeems,” while the “Dutch Store” by AI. O'Brien ('twashis father's get-up) and company, was as laughable a farce and as well performed as one would desire to see. “Our Boyhood Days” by J. O'Brien, E. Burras, AA'. AA'alker, AI. O'Brien, George Lary and M. Allen as “Air. Squash,” “Timothy Squash,” “Lanky,” “Shorty,” “Bell” anil “Pete” excited roars of merriment. They did as well as Simmons and Newcombe. Tlie “Centennial AA'alk Around” closed a most delightful performance. Thank you, young masters, for our part. AVe havn’t had as much real fun in a long time. Admission was only 15 and 10c., but they made money. They give a matinee AA'ednesday af ternoon at 3 o’clock at tlie same place for the benefit of tlie school children and all others who may attend. Ad mission 15 cents. AVe would advise the boys, however, to postpone it until Saturday afternoon. That is holiday time and the girls can put on their Sun day best and look their prettiest, and servants can come with the little ones. AA’e can heartily advise all to attend, for tlie boys furnish an exhibition worth seeing and hearing.

The colored man gave an immense quantity of insolence and finally made an assault, when Tanner shot and killed him. Air. Tanner once farmed exten sively but he has had so much cotton stolen from him that he has been com pelled to stop its cultivation. Such thefts are very common in that section of the country and are the sources of great loss and annoyance. Domestic*!

IV ll* Is 117 Freight on wiskey, bacon, ike., from Cincinnati, Ohio, to Live Oak, Florida, is 57 cents per hundred pounds. The route is via Alontgomery, Union Springs and Eufaula, thence by boat to Chattahoochee, then on J., P. <fc AI. R. R. to Live Oak. The same freight via Alontgomery and Union Springs to Columbus is 85 cents. It does look like Columbus catches it on all sides. Here is freight shipped 200 to 300 miles be yond her, and by two more transporta tion companies, who have a pro rata of tlie freights, yet at 28 cents per hundred less. It appears to us that if freight can be carried at 57 cents per hundred to Live Oak, Florida, it certainly could be brought to Columbus at the same rate. If 85 cents is as cheap as the roads can afford to haul to Colum bus, they certainly must bo losing at 57 to Live Oak, and some measures should be adopted to prevent these corporations from killing one section of the country, just because of a little spite among themselves. As Columbus is always the sufferer, we protest against such unjust proceedings, and if tlie better judgment of railroad corporations will not stop them from such unfair dis criminations, wo think it time for the State to take hold of the matter, and teach the managers a lesson. They ap pear to have learned only one lesson heretofore, and that is to secure good salaries for themselves. Our stock of Kid Gloves, embracing party and opera shades, is the best in town. noli tf J. Kyle & Co. Bonny Doon Stork Farm. AA’e visited lately this farm, one of i our home institutions, situated about j one and a half miles from Columbus, on the Talbotton road. Air. Bruce has, in the last two years, brought this farm j, up to a state of high cultivation, and it is now one of the most desirable places around our growing city. Realizing the large annual outlay paid to the AA'est for bacon, Air. Bruce determined to aid the farmers against this unneces sary expense, and imported some fine Berkshire hogs from the most noted bleeders in England. His pens and pastures are the most conveniently ar ranged of any we have ever seen, and for his Berkshircs he has devoted four acres, admirably fenced oft’, for tlie pur poses of a breeder. Two force-pumps convey water through pipes to the dif ferent pastures and pens. Tlie pig pens are built with a sleeping apart ment and feeding platform combined, graded to a gutter, which leads to the manure shed, a pit sloping to five feet deep and lined with Portland cement. In this pit lie collected last year a large quantity of liquid manure, which, ap plied to liis various crops, greatly en hanced their value, and gave Bonny Doon an aspect of luxurious growth it never presented before. On this farm the stock are well fed, Air. Bruce say ing that “God never created an animal that he did not mean to have at least two square meals a day,” and we be lieve with him that in obedience to this law lies tlie greatest profit and success in stock-raising. Another feature of this thrifty farm which stands out prominently on ap proaching Bonny Doon, is a large barn of octagon shape, in which is stored forty to fifty tons of pea and other hay and fodder. Air. Bruce says that with out this convenience, lately construct ed, lie could not have saved his pea-hav and other crops in the same fine condi tion they now present. He has an abundance to feed his stock, as well as a large surplus for sale. Our readers will notice his advertise ment of St. Domingo sweet potatoes for sale. This variety attains a marvellous size, is very productive, and is equally adapted for the table and for stock feed- EASB AND COMFORT! Air. Bruce is progressive, and believes tlie capacity of our soil and climate is not yet fully known. Last year lie in troduced the new forage plant, “Prick ly Comfrey,” a native of tlie Caucasus Mountains, in Russia, than which no plant produces a larger amount of green food. It matures tlie third year, giv ing the first year fifty tons to the acre, the second year eighty tons, and the third year one hundred tons of green fodder, eaten greedily by every kind of stock. It is cultivated from root cut tings, bedded out like the sweet potato. AVhen it attains a height of four to six inches it is transplanted to its perma nent location, where tlie cultivation it requires is a few hoeings until it reach es maturity, and being a large plant, and necessarily a heavy feeder, mulch ing with coarse manure every fal l is requisite, and it will well repay tlie small labor and expense. It will prove a valuable acquisition to every farmer; can be grown oil dry upland as well as on bottom lands, and will branch out in a luxuriance of green leaves, when everything else is burned up during the long summer droughts. AA’e note the capture of premiums for Berkshire hogs at the Thomasville Fair, by Air. Bruce. A\ r e wish success to Bonny Doon Stock Farm and to all similar institu tions, which mark a new era in our Southern agriculture. HOTET AIIRIVATS. A. H. AVm. RANKIN HOUSE.

Hines last afternoon and made himself very obnoxious by his impudence and insulting talk. Air Hines ordered him to leave the store, which he did after considerable parley ing. He stopped just outside and com menced to berate Air. H. in not very choice language. He was ordered oft again, but lie refused to go, and gave forth some more of his insolence, when Air. H. struck him over the head with a peg scraper. This brought the man and brother to his senses, and with the aid of a policeman he made his way down the street. A mean negro out side and mean whiskey in him is very hard to endure, and we like to see them “fetched up” sometimes a la Hines. IVlint a Change! AA'e allude to the new advertisement of Gordon it Cargill. It is really inter esting to read it. People can’t tell where to go to get dry goods to suit them unless they see an advertisement explaining prices and some specialties. Don’t trade with a dry goods man who don’t advertise, because they haven’t much to sell, and of course it is unnec essary to “ventillate.” Now, when you see men using printer’s ink like Gordon & Cargill, you may know that they are prospering and have every thing in the dry goods line that the trade of this section calls for. It means that they have an immense stock and are anxious to dispose of it at low fig ures. * I O a © u Ink 1 o» a E a 1 02 o’ o a cr> tn < | a> C c 05 1 o 0 0. 0 o a.

These two men were walking along quietly upon the bricks of the sidewalk. Yes, they were going along (we mean Blanchard <fc Hill), and while debating in their minds how they could prosper and help their fellow-men at the same time, they fell—on their dry goods. They concluded that “small profits and quick sales” was the thing to carry out their^object, and a considerable fall wouldn't bruise much. Read their new advertisement in these columns, and see how these “bruises” are healed. Changes of Sehednle To-Dny.

In accordance with the custom of previous years, the Twenty-second Convention of the Associations of tlie United States and the Dominion of Can ada; held in Louisville, Kv., June 6-10, 1S77. “Resolved, (1) That all our Associa tions are earnestly urged to continue the use second Lord’s Day in Novem ber of each year as a day of thanks giving to God for the gracious aid of His Holy Spirit in our efforts to serve Him; and of earnest supplication for His continued blessing upon our own and kindred organizations throughout the Kingdom of Christ, among young men. (2) That all tlie Associations be re- jucsted to aid the International Com mittee in the work at large by a thank offering upon the Day of Prayer. Each Association, however small, can make a contribution that may be blessed of God, to the accomplishment of great and lasting good.” The above resolutions received the hearty and unanimous support of the Georgia delegation at the Louisville Convention, and now in behalf of the State Executive Committee, I most earnestly ask the universal observance of recommendations by the Young Men’s Christian Association, of our State. Let the following be the topics: November 12, Alonday—Importunity in Prayer—Luke xi: 5-10; Luke xviii: 1-18. November 13, Tuesday — Parental Anxiety.—II Sam. xviii: 5, 24-33; John iv: 46-53; Jobi: 1-5. November 14, Wednesday— Raising of the Widow’s Son.—Luke vii: 11-16. November 15, Thursday—Christ, tlie Victorious Leader.—Rom. viii: 35-39; I Cor. xv: 55-58. November 16, Friday — The Lost Sheep. Luke xv: 3-7; Eze. xxxiv 11-12. Arrange for a meeting of Christian workers, at 3 o’clock p. in., Sunday, November 11, to pray together, and to plan for personal work during the week, and at 5 p. m. same day, have a meeting for men exclusively. Pastors throughout the State, who are in sympathy with the Young Men’s Christian Association work, are most respectfully requested to preach a ser mon, morning or night, as they may think best, to young men.

AA'e don’t mean your own name, al though that is sometimes done, but to forget another man’s anil this not withstanding the fact that you are well acquainted with him. A person hesitates in introducing folks with whom he is familiar, because he can not think of their names, sometimes it is to his own mortification and to theirs for it is hardly agreeable to have one with -whom you are daily brought in contact obliged to say, when the forms of introduction re quire it, “I beg your pardon, sir, but your name has escaped me.” You feel that you have been trifled with, and that the man has been pretend ing to know you when he did not. One great cause for this forgetfulness of names lies in our senseless system of introductions. The true idea upon which introduction should be based is the natural desire of the parties in troduced to become acquainted with each other. Brown may want to know Smith, but if Smith prefers not to know Brown, it is a species of im position for theirmutual acquaintance, Jones to bring them together. Yet this is continually being done in our every-day life, and it is no wonder that Smith does not remember Brown’s name afterward—for he takes no pains to remember it. How often does an incident like the following occur: Jones and Smith are walking together on tlie street. They meet a party among which is Brown, with whom Jones exchanges a few words on business merely. Thereupon Brown feels called upon to introduce Jones to his half dozen companions, five of whom he has just ‘been intro duced to himself, anil consequently has asked them their names, and when Jones is irresistibly impelled to introduce Smith to the whole party, getting half tlieir names wrong anil muttering unintelligibly over the rest. A day or two afterwards, Jones, who possesses prominence or noto riety, that renders him a mark to be remembered, is approached by a stranger and smiles blandly as he ex tends his hand and says, “Mr. Jones, how do you do?” Jones stares a lit tle, looks confused and then makes a lame attempt to appear to know him, although he lias not the slightest rec ollection of ever seeing him before. The man sees he is not recognized and feels hurt. “You don’t rec collect me, I see?” “Oh, yes, I do,” says Jones, telling a wretched lie, “T know you face well enough, hut I can’t quite call your name. Fact is, I am one of the worst hands in the world to recollect names.” Then Jones learns the cordial fellow’s name and is reminded that their mutual friend Brown introduced them on the occasion above alluded to, when they go their ways—the cordial fellow thinking Jones is putting on airs, anil Jones believes he is a bore. People go through the farce of in troduction so often they conic to at tach very little importance to it, and you see men pass each other on the sidewalk without any recognition, who ten minutes before’were shaking hands with each other in the most cordial manner, in compliance with the popular demand that men acci dentally grouped together for a min ute or two must all he introduced. No wonder, then, that men forget names! They forget them because they do not care to remember them, and this careless indifference assumes the form of a habit at length. RAILROADS.
