Judge Death of Mr*. 4o»eph I’arrnlher*. The hearts of the many friends of this beloved young lady were saddened yesterday by the unlooked for an nouncement of her death. She was the wife of Mr. Joseph Carruthors, a book-binder for Mr. Thomas Gilbert. They were married last February and were more devoted to one another than It seemed possible for human beings to be. She was the only daughter of Mr. and and Mrs. James Meelor, of this city, and was a graduate of our Public Schools, where she was beloved by both teaelicr and pupils for her gentle manners and studious habits. Shine hi Id hood she has been n member of St. Luke church, and a more consistent one would have been hard to find. With a light step the beloved husband went to bis business on yesterday morning, after being assured that she was better, when about twelve o’clock lie was summoned homo to find that death had begun bis terrible work and the lips which bad bade lilm good-bye only a few hours before were fast (dosing never to part again. Only one week ago tbclr house was bright ened by a baby boy, who will never know what a kind and loving mother he lias lost, and will, wo trust, live to gladden the heavt of a fond father. Mrs. C. was barely twenty-one years of age and had just begun to realize the happiness of this world when sin* was suddenly wafted to realms above. To the sorrowing husband and par ents we extond our sympathy and trust they will be comforted with tlieihouglit that she is happier in the home where sorrow* is never known. The funeral will take place from St. Luke church this morning nt o’clock. Wli»< Wm Written. About half-past twelve yesterday morning, shortly after receiving “special” from Talbotton, we wrote brief article concerning the ministers assigned to Columbus, in which these paragraphs occurred : “Rev. Dr. J. S. Key returns to St. Paul’s Church. Rev. Dr. Arminius Wright is assigned to Broad Streot Church. Some of the finest sermons wo have over hoard, have fallen from his lips, lie has been living in our city some months.” On taking up the paper, we found a sleepy printer had altered paragraphs and a still sleepier copy-holder had al lowed them to be put in as he changed them In this way : “Rev. fir. J. S. Key returns to St. Paul’s Church. 'Some of the finest ser mons wo have over heard have faUen from his lips, lie has been living in our city some months.” Such an occurrence is not likely to happon again. MUSOOOBE SUPERIOR COURT.

Instead of drawing of swords and charging of bayonets, there will he drawing of prizes and charging 50 cents for tickets. All this will be found in the grand gift enterprise which has a committee especially devoted to Its management. The prizes will be varied and valuable —gold watches, fine sets of jetyelry, sliver ware, beautiful vaaes, toilet arti cles, dolls, <tc., Ac. Tickets, entitling the holder to a chance at the many valuable prizes, will he only fifty oents. We have no doubt but the enterprise will be a success, as the prizes are fully worth the risk of the small sum. Many friends of the companies, we understand, are donating articles to be included as prizes, and wo hope others will do so. Any article left at this office will be taken charge of and delivered to the committee. Our merchants could do a deal of good by contributing some thing from their stock to aid in increas ing the prizes, and we hope they will do so. We ask them to remember our volunteer military and send in 'their contributions. We are ready to take charge of anything—a cooking stove, piano, silk dress, or a bottle of “murnrn.” Yes, anything, gentlemen. Another feature of the festival that will he charming and novel, is the promenade concert. Good music by the best amateur talent in our city will enliven the occasion. Those who are devotees to the sub stantial will find plenty of good eating, In the way of oysters, turkey, ham, cakes, etc. Let everybody be sure to attend next Monday night and see for themselves.
