Blackmon died ut his home in Wacoochee Valley, Ala., yesterday afternoon at 2 o’clock, after a lingering illness of typhoid fever. He was 3ft years of ago and leaves no fhniilv. He was a highly respected and worthy young man who had many friends who will re gret to learn of his death. Green*ille Made H.ippi. The base hall dubs of Senoia and Greenville played a match game in the latter place yester day. Greenville won by a score of 14 to 11. and [ it is said the town was wild with enthusiasm last night. Columbus has had these very symptoms 1 of the base ball fever, but a tew defeats soon j takes the delirium out of the patient. \ Larue Blue ('rime. Yesterday morning little Will Gibson, soil of Mr. H. A. Gibson, killed a large blue orane on his father's fish pond. The crane measured six fact and four inches from tip to tip and about five feet in height. He was on exhibition in front of Mr. Gibson’s store yesterday and at tracted considerable attention.

At the conclusion of the meeting the children were treated to a bounteous supply of candies and nuts. This juvenile temple will meet next Sun- { day evening at 5 o’clock at St. Luke church, ; when the superintendent, Mrs. Dr. Blanchard, will be present and conduct the meeting, j The morning session of the grand lodge opened at ft o’clock with J. H. Roberts in the chair. ! Committees on finance and literature made j their final reports, which were adopted. ( The committee on the state of the order re ported the order in a progressive state. yestflrday: "I have been buying shoes in New York. Boston and other northern markets, and I find by experiment that Columbus, considering i s proximity to Florida and its acknowledged facilities, i* the best market for me to buy shoes in, and 1 am now buying my shoes here." A reporter for the Enoulskr-Sun recently heard the hardware merchants from Alexander City, Ala., discussing Columbus as a market in which to purchase goods in their line. They both agreed that they could do no better, and might do worse hv going elsewhere. Evidently Colum bus is destined to have an immense wholesale trade in the future.

Are our farmers such mutton-heads as to do such a thing? I conclude not. But this is foreign from my suggestion, which was to curtail acrcago.

There are now in the field three avowed candidates for ap pointment to fill the vancancy. They are A. A. Carson, Esq., of Butler, J. H. Worrill, Esq., of Talbottou, and H. C. Cameron, Esq., of Hamilton. They are all comparatively young men. but with several years’ experience in the practice of law. All bear splendid reputa tions. and are gentlemen of ability and sterling character. Wherever the mantle falls, it will fall upon shoulders worthy to wear it. So far as is known at present, Columbus will not present a candidate, and the appointment of either gentle man now aspiring will no doubt give entire satis faction. was instructed to see that their respective lodge inserted a notice of their nights which their lodge meet in this official organ. A resolution was adopted expressing the re grets of this body at the death of Mr. J. G. Wright and Rev. E. Evans, both members of the grand lodge, who had died since the last meeting. Definite steps were taken to more fully organize among the colored people, and especially among the colored children. Reports of lodges were concluded, and .Savan nah, Macon and others reported their lodges in good working order. Resolutionsjwere adopted tendering the sincere thanks of the grand lodge to the citizens of Co lumbus for their kind hospitalities in throwing Open their homes and most generously providing for both delegates and visiting friends, and also to the Enquirer-Sun for their most kindly no tices during the session. As tin* business of the session had been ex hausted, the body adjourned to meet in the city of Augusta one year hence. After the session had adjourned, quite a nuin- ! rankin'house her of delegates went to the home of Mrs. W. J. , W *11 (\ Berry and wife, Delhi McAlister. Mrs. McAlister has been confined to ! Summer Side; H. Guggenheime her home for some time on account of sickness, and to show the appreciation of her many friends of her sterling worth as a temperance worker and a Christ! hi Uuly, these .friends happily surprised her by this visit. After a feast of delightful conversation had been engaged in for some time, in turn the visiting friends were happily surprised by the ap- aiter laden down with ice-cream which was highly appreciated by all.

The visitors batted Renfroe pretty freely, hut the locals fielded i well and held the run-getting down by some good work at critical stages of the game. There j was more interest in the game than in that of j Tuesday, and the audience was treated to the excitement of chasing base runners between the bases several times. The hatting of the Amuteuis I was a great improvement over the first game.and j (la - v s issue from Rusticusestablishes any propoi j the boys did some daring base running. Follow ; ing is the score of the game : lain yesterday, just enough to put the ground in good working order, for we were getting real dry, and the ground was get ting hard. It looks now like we are going to have some more rain. Turnips that were planted a day or two ago were up this morning “before breakfast.” If we get a little more rain now, it will be the very making of upland com and turnips, and peas and peavines and forage corn and things of that kind. It will help out cot ton too as a matter of course, but I can al ways take more interest and have more patience with a crop that I know I can eat after it is made. A few days ago there passed by here a poor old woman, riding in a sorry vehicle, having a few sorry apples and a few sorry peaches and some chickens and some eggs. She said she lived about six miles above here, and that she was going to market to buy some bread, for there was no bread in all that country. She stopped at the store and bought a nickel’s worth of crackers for breakfast. That, I think, is the next thing to a famine. A prominent and well-informed Christian ! gentleman told me the other day that he Kell, I had never known our country to" be in so . } ,| bad a condition as it is at this time. He ‘ ' I said that the people were actually too poor lj 1 to be religious; that they were not able to sustain the gospel as they ought. Our Sl,sie | farmers don’t have any increase to “title,” | Jewett, White Sulphur Springs; J. Stapler, Dozier; i but they are decreasing every year as fast I W. H. Stockton, Atlanta; W. A. Driver, Mont-I as they can. Many of them are driving straight to bankruptcy. What brought about this state of affairs ? Well, it is the same old story. The farm ers went in debt to make a crop that they could not eat, and sold that crop for less money than it cost them to produce it, and then went in debt again for more supplies to make more cotton, to sustain their credit and keep up appearances a little while longer. The startling truth is upon us that we are slaves; for a people who fail to make their supplies or fail to run on a cash system for these supplies, are and ever must be slaves. It is to be. hoped that when foreign com panies get possession of some of our lands, that they will introduce a new system among us, and teach us how to bring up our old worn out lands and make our bread and meat at home. It will be a hard lesson for our southern boys to learn, but if their parents will not teach them how to make the farm self-sustaining, they will be compelled to hire themselves to north erners and foreigners and be their ser vants.
