Miss Mollic Paramore, by Rev. A. B.
Campbell.
Mr. Clements is with the well-known
house of Sperry tV Co., of Nashville,
Tenn., where, as here, In* is justly con
sidered as a gentleman of superior tact
and enorgy. His many friends will
rejoice in his good fortune in securing
as a companion through life one of
Columbus’ fairest and most loveable of
.daughters.
May their voyage through life never
be troubled with "boistrous waves."
and may they realize all the happiness
that imagination has ever pictured.

Our Paper.
“I have been taking the Enquirer for
25 years. My father commenced taking
it in 1820, and at his death I had it
changed to mo, so you see I have been
rending your paper for 48 years. To
miss a number makes mo feel like some
of the family bad gone off I have
missed two numbers and I come over
to see about it. Now 1 want you to see
to it that it comes right, for I can't do
without the Enquirkr-Hun. It is the
best paper published.”
The foregoing is the purport of what
Mr. C. Aldridge, of Salem, Ala., had to
say to us yestorday. Mr. A. called on
us to know why his paper didn’t comae
to time, and told us of his
past connection with our paper.
We thanked him for his appreciation,
and feel confident we deserve it, as
there is no paper in the South better
gotten up or so deservedly appreciated.
The price of our Weekly is only $1.10,
which is hall’the price of other week
lies in the State that do not print near
t ho amount of matter. Ah our planters
are now realizing cost for their labor
for the post year, we would
suggest that $1.10 invosted in
one year’s subscription to the
Enquirer-Sun will pay thorn ten
fold. Every family should have a
good newspaper. The Enquirkr-Hun
is as good as tlie best, and the price is
less than half—only $1.10 for one year.
Mtreet Festivities Agnln.
It is with pleasure that wo unnouneo
to the public Unit Billy RadclitVo, with
Ids sweet old banjo and melodious and
now songs, is in the city. With hi
are Dr. Greene and Chas. Biglow, who
don’t talk at nil. The Columbus peo
ple are always glad tosoe Billy, because
he makes thorn happy with jolly and
beautiful songs. He invariably draws
a crowd around him when his musical
lips sound a note, lie now sings “The
Gal with Rod Stockings,” “The Pin-
Back,’’ “Gone with the Circus,” besides
the same old songs which he used to
sing. Billy says that there were only
cloven months in last year at Philadel
phia, as Bennett shot May and May
shot out. Dr. Greene, with his “pitch”
to cure all imaginable diseases, as we
said before, didn’t talk—that is, while
ho was being choked oil* from
Ids gab by a rope. Hi$j tricks
are many and good. He apparently
swallows an incredible amount of cot
ton, sets fire to it and then lets the
smoke issue from his mouth by vol
umes. After this lie draws from his
mouth long pieces of ribbons of various
colors, and then follows “loud and
continuous applause.’’ We have never
heard a man talk so loud or so much,
and wo think that very few females
can equal him. Billy’s friend, Biglow,
sells glass cutters as well as the former,
who, beside dealing in those, also dis
poses, at a rapid rate, of tops, wlristles
and “look backs.” The last is an opti
cal arrangement, by the assistance of
which anyone can see what is going on
in the rear. These boys will be hero
for a number of days and Columbus
will wear a lively mean during their
stay.

A tobacco drummer, who frequently
comes through this way soiling the
weed, has named one of his brands
“Little Hurry.” One of our grocery
merchants told him he would prefer
not to buy any with that name as he
was selling butter with the same brand
(just a little hairy), and didn't give eii
tire satisfaction.

A young man, J. H. Bennett, was
frozen to death last week near Wedo-
wee. He had attended a circus, and on
returning home, when about three-
fourths of a mile from Wodowee, under
the Influence of whiskey, he dismount
ed from his horse, pulled off his over
coat and one boot and laid down in the
road, where he was found next morn
ing dead.
An old negro, Daniel Mason,- was
burned to death, in an old
shanty, in Opelika, Friday. Some
negro friends had called by
that morning and built him a fire, and
as it was a vory cold day the old man
hovered over and fell into the fire. Be
ing unabled to get up he was burned to
death.
Chancery Court convened -Monday,
Judge Graham dispatching business
with his usual promptness. Among
important cases decided was Mrs. 8. J.
Sledge vs. Williams, Birnie A Co., of
New York. Decision in favor of plain
tiff. Mrs. Sledge had filed a bill show
ing that notes to the amount of $0,000,
secured by mortgage on her building,
corner of South Railroad and Tallapoo
sa streets, made by Sledge A Smith to
Williams, Birnie A Co., had been paid
in full, and praying that sale under
such mortgage should be set aside.
Chancellor decided notes to have been
paid, and consequently mortgage can
celled.
A suit is now pending, W. H. Barnes,
trustee of mortgage bondholders, vs.
James I. Colt, et al. asking foreclosure
of mortgage on E. A. A C. Railroad.
After the Corn Thieve*.
Wednesday night, policeman Bowen
n company with Davis Andrews, went
to the outskirts of the city in search of
a notorious corn thief. After walking
around in suspicious localities they at
last “spotted” their man, but by some
means or other ho “smolta mouse” and
made good liis escape. They will prob
ably get him in a day or two.
Beturn* from (III* County and District.
M useogoe has elected as her Repre
sentatives Reese Crawford and Louis
F. Garrard, Esqs., prominent members
of the bar, and whose ages are about
thirty years.
Hon. T. W. Grimes has been elected
Senator in the district composed of the
ounties of Muscogee, Chattahoochee
and Marion by fully 1,100 majority. He
arried Muscogee by 1,334 votes, Chat
tahoochee by 5, and Col. Miller, Marlon
by probably 200, perhaps more. Mr.
Grimes is also a young man in the
neighborhood of a little beyond thirty
oars, a lawyer of talent, and has twice
epresonted the county in the lower
house of the General Assembly. His
ompetitor, Col. Miller, of Marion, is a
gentleman of marked ability and suc-
ess, and one of exceeding popularity
was required to win the prize from
him. The discussions between those
•ontestants were models of worthy
bearing and manly gonorosity. Wor
thier rivalry was never more chivalricly
exhibited.
The CMBpllmeutmry Ball.
The ball given last night at the Perry
House by the young men of this city,
complimentary to Mr. and Mrs. D. P.
Dozier and Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Mitch
ell, was very pleasant. The attend
ance was large and the dressing elegant.
The Italian band furnished music, and
dancing was the order of the evening.
All scorned to enjoy the evening, and
especially the supper. These social re
unions are very agreeable, and it were
well for Columbus were her young peo
ple blessed with more funds to have
more of them. The lovely women
never appeared to better advantage than
on last evening.
;Only One More.
Our municipal election occurs to
morrow. After that we will have a
long rest of a year before we will be
called to ballot again. We trust none
will be so thankless as to die and create
a vacancy. Voting has become a nuis
ance and a bore. There is too much of
it. The Senator and Legislators elect
take their seats next December.
After the worry of Saturday, we
are to be let alone until November
comes when Congressmen must be
chosen.
Died.
Wiley Roper, brother of policeman
Roper, died in this city yesterday
morning. He had been very feeble for
many months. Ho was a machinist by
trade, and has lived in Columbus the
bettor portion of Ills life. He will be
burled this morning at 10 o’clock.

He Wanted All He Paid For,
A country man that camo to the
ity a few dayH ago, and had been
riding hard for .hours, needed some
thing for the “inner man.” Going into
a restaurant he, to illustrate his hunger,
ailed for dinner for four men. The
meals were sorvod and after satisfying
his appetite, ho was called on to settle,
when, to his amazement, the charge
was four dollars. “Well, ain’t that
pretty steep for dinner?” He was in
formed that ho would have to pay for
four as thoy only served according to
his order, when ho ejaculated, “Well,
if I have to pay for them, d—n if I
don’t eat ’em.” Sure enough he did
and was not sick thorefrom, either,
noted man remarked that ho wouldn’t
board that fellow for less than ono hun
dred dollars pennontli. He must have
stopped at “Caid’s Spring,” on his way
to the city.
They Dal Left.
A party of gentlemen went out hunt
ing yestorday, and, on returning, being
very well satisfied with the day’s sport
and amount bagged, they halted the
team at the edge of the city for “re
freshments.” All went in the store,
leaving the team, wagon and contents
to tako caro of themselves. The heat
of the fire and refreshments rendored
them insensible of the fact that the hor
ses walked off, and imagine their con
sternation when, on coming out, they
discovered it. Their being forced to
walk homo was the smallest part of the
exation; the ridicule of their friends
and families for returning, not only
without game, bat minus guns, etc.,
was too much, and if any of them givo
vent to sentences not found in scrip
ture, don’t blame them, but “put your
self in tlieir places.” The team and
wagon had not boon heard from at last
accounts, and whether they wero driven
off or walked off of their own accord, is
unknown. Wo tell the talo as ’twas
told us.
Personal.
Mr. Alton Angler, of Atlanta, passen
ger agent of the Piedmont Air Line
Railroad, is in the city, whore he is
over welcomed by many friends. Tho
line he represents runs double daily
trains and through Pullman cars be
tween Atlanta and New York. It is
undoubtedly the shortest, best, and
most comfortable routo to tho North,
as passengers will find. The Pullman
ear from Atlanta goos to New York.
Mr. R. A. Daniel, with Prudhomme
A Briggs, New Orleans, put in an ap
pearance yesterday.
Mr. G. A. Granberry, of thellamiltou
Journal, was in the sanctum last night,
where he is ever woleomed. Ho leaves
on the Wylly for Neal’s Landing, to
rusticate in the Land of Flowers for
awhile.
Mr. T. J. Appleyard loaves to-day
for Selma, Ala., where he takes charge
as foreman of the Times. VI© is a gen
tleman of culture, and conversant with
every form and department of tho ty
pographic art. Ho is thorough and
earnest in all he undertakes, knows his
business perfectly, pursues it with abil
ity and energy, and is one of those ge
nial young men with whom it is a pleas
ure to associate. We wish him all suc
cess, for ho deserves It.
