A Cow Thief Jailed. A negro named George Johnson was brought to the city yesterday, charged with killing a cow on Mr. Henry Almond’s place with a view to stealing the carcass and selling it for beef. The Cow belonged to a negro woman on the place and was grazing in a field. Mr. Almond was attracted by a pistol shot and going in the direction from which the sound came, he met the negro and af terward found the dead cow. The negro was evi dently going tA arrange for moving the cow, but Mr. Almond interferred with his plans by arrest ing him and bringing him to this city. He had « preliminary trial before Judge Wynne, and in default of bail in the sum of $100, he was sent to jail. Base Ball Brevities.

A Tree (k Known By Its Fruit. In another column of this paper is found the advertisement of the LaGrange female college, RufUa W. Smith, president, it is a pleasure for us to say a word or two in reference to this school which is neither superficial nor denominational. Believing there can be no higher calling than a conscientious teacher, Prof. Smith has devoted people, did not pause I the desired information, but as if by instinct the thirsty man hurried on towards i Springer’s corner. The next heard of him lie* was in Mayor Grimes’ court, protesting that he was not drunk but had j | only taken too ■ much Opelika ether. Mayor t l Grimes, with his accustomed hospitality, extend- j i od the Vicksburg traveler the freedom of the city f of Macon provided he would leave on tlie first , i train. He promised and was allowed to leave the I j court a free man. | Columbus whisky, however, seems to have had i j a charm for this man. and instead of taking the i i risk on Macon’s being n dry town, lie decided to j j remain a while longer. In the afternoon lie was j j found by the police mounted on a dry goods box : i near tho Broad street depot advertising his 1 powers ns a frontier revivalist. He was kindly j taken in, and Mayor Grimes was surprised to ; meet him in his court again yesterday morning, j When his name was called Mayor Grimes asked: j “I suppose you have been taking too much | ether again.*’ “No, your honor; I cannot tell a lie. It was red liquor this time. I u as s c’< yesterday and the landlady advised me to take n drink of black berry wine. This advice was not hard to take, neither was the wine; but when I drank that wine an irrepressible longing for something stronger took possession of me, and if I took one drink of red liquor I took forty. I have no defense to make. I simply throw myself upon the mercy of the court.” Mayor Grimes delivered a free lecture on the folly of the excessive use of ether or red liquor, meanness oi some great people.

A Ileal Estate TrailHaetion That Hire* Stroup Evi dence of IV lint People Think About CoIuiiiIiuh, “Mr. John D. Carter has sold the vacant lot on Third avenue to Mr. B. A. Biggers for $3750,’* re marked a prominent real estate agent yesterday to a small party of gentlemen. There was a general verdict that the price paid was a good one, but not too much when the bright future of Columbus is considered. The lot is just back of Mr. Carter’s old home and is about a quarter of an acre. The locality is a most desirable one, but still a yoar ago $3750 would have been considered a very steep price for it. The fact is Columbus is booming and is bound to boom a good deal more. The Georgia Mivland and the Columbus and AVesteru extension have served to strengthen the confidence of people in the ftiture of the city, and on every hand there are evidences of renewed life.
