I On motion of Captain Blanchard the seal adopted by the hoard of directors was adopted us eseal oft he company. Mr. O. Gun by Jordan then read the proposed form of bond and mortgage, and a vote being taken upon it, every share of stock present voted to authorize the president and directors to execute the mortgage and issue the bonds. This mortgage authorizes not over fifteen thousand dollars per mile* of six per cent, forty-year gold bonds. The mortgage covers the territory be tween Columbus and Athens. It is understood that bonds will now be issued to cover the first division, viz: Columbus to East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad. Mr J. S. Garrett nominated the following for directors and they were unanimously elected: George I*. Bwift, jr., Dr. N. J. Bussey (’. L. Davis, J. F. Flournoy, B. T. Hatcher, Seaton Orantland, W. J. Kincaid, J. W. Woolfolkand J’. M. Foley. Mr. G.Gunby Jordan stated for the information of the stockholders that 93 miles of the road had been contracted, and that the contractors were under a $40,000 bond for the completion of the work by May, 1887. There are now ovir 500 hands at work on tne line, and the tunnel work will begin in a few days. The work beyond Flint river was very light, and there was no necessity for hurrying about it. It had been thought best to complete the work from this end as it goes, so as to be able to call for assessments of stock earlier than otherwise could be done. He said steel rails for the entire route to the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad were contracted for. The first 25 miles of them are to he delivered by August 15, 18HH. He had no doubt the 93 miles would be completed by next summer and realty for busi ness. The meeting then adjourned. At a subsequent meeting of the newly elected board <>f directors the following officers were elected: President -Seaton Grantland, of Griffin. Vice-President -G. P. Swift, jr., of Columbus. Secretary and Treasurer -Charles L. Davis, of Warm Springs. MIDLAND NOTES. Hon. Seaton Grantland, W. J. Kincaid and John M. Williams, of Griffin, were at the meet ing. Rev. E. M.

Under the old plan it required about two and a half hours to change the tires. The trucks are changed by putting the axles ir a lathe and turning down the shoulders an inch and a ha if on each end and then pressing the wheels in. The wheels are removed from the trucks and replaced by means of a very heavy hydraulic pressure and is quickly done. Mr. Albrecht, the master of the machine shops, has already changed several locomotives to suit the now gauge. A circular has also been pre pared and issued by tlu* company with gen eral instructions for the transportation, maohin*■'•>• and oar departments in regard to the change •'!’gauge on May 31.

It— 1 Truck ami Fruit f arms. Jacksonville, May 18.—The Times-Union this morning prints the following report of the con dition of crops furnished by the agricultural de- ( partment: j A small quantity of the winter rye and oats is ! harvested in nearly all portions of the state. The ; first cuttings of guinea and para grass have also taken place, but their acreage is small. Consid erable quantities of the annual millets will be planted, and crab grass converted into hay and preparations for seeding will take place (luring this month, on the grounds occupied as gardens, for trucking. The cold of last winter made the products of early gardens and truck farms nearly a month later titan usual in reaching the markets. The usual prices have been realized for those pro ducts. The reduction of the crop of oranges was counteracted by an increase in the number of trees and the increased capacity of the older trees, and t here is a strong probability of a bloom ing taking place in may and June. Pears and peachers promise twice the quantity of any for mer year. State Agent Knapp makes a report on the finan cial condition of the farming community. He says: The practice of borrowing money upon future erops is rapidly declining, and with that decline there is a more diversified system of crop ping and greater independence in the farming community. Under the old system the planter was compelled to plant cotton, as that was the crop mortgaged to the creditor. The tax upon farming was exorbitant—first, bv reason of no restrictions upon usury; and second, by reason of compulsory trading Only at the store of the advancer. These advances often consumed the entire crop raised, and the farmers found themselves at the end of the year as they had en tered upon it. In most portions of the state the lands are rapid l.v changing hands, often upon speculation, and only with partial payments, and contracts with ten per cent, and upward for in terest on the residue. High, or rather unlimited rates of interest, have brought into Florida, as it always will, a class of unscrupulous money lend ers, who have pressed their loans upon the im prudent and have secured themselves by bonds and mortgages upon real estate far below the true valuations, and in many cases these will be forfeited. The temptations held out of making large per cents, in the mercantile pursuits have induced many to engage in that business on borrowed capital until it is overdone. Short Dialogues.
