Public Sides Yesterday. The following real estate was sold at public out cry by F. M. Knowles & Co., auctioneers, yes terday: George Pond, administrator of Lucinda Ander son, toG. E. Thomas, jr., city lot No. 298, for $910. Caroline Williams, administratrix, to Mrs. Burnham, lot in the Northern Liberties, for $1300. Death of Miss Goodwin. Miss Belila J. Goodwin, aged 12 years, died at It seems that the earthquake or something else -quite probable something else—has completely overshadowed the wild rumors and reports with reference to the “scoop” of the Central railroad by the Louisville and Nashville. We are not surprised that some of our esteemed cotempora ries should wish to sink this subject out of sight, for it certainly would require a great deal of states only what Captain Raoul said to him, and pluck—if that is the name to call it by—to tell in talking about it says that he left Captain such tales as were told while earthquakes m* Raoul fully convinced that there is not one word going loose around the country. But that is j of truth in any of the rumors that have been put neither here nor there, as the saving is. The afloat. It is quite probable that all that has pre- questioii that seems to puzzle the public iniiul Is vented Captain Rnoul from making some denial has there been any scoop? of the extraordinary tales that have been told, is ham, Captain Raoul said that it was as sure to be made as anything could possibly be that is not an absolute fact. Ho said that by the first of January next that the contracts and negotiations for the extension of the road would be of such a character that even if the Central railroad should change its entire management, and even pass into the control of another corporation, the ex tension to Birmingham could not be thwarted. He has already made arrangements fbr every dollar of the money to he used in the extension and betterments of tlie road, the iron has been purchased, and the extention will be made. The gentleman who gave us this information is one whose word has never been impeached, and who is as reliable as any man on earth. He Saw on the Trip. Some days ago tho Enquirkr-8un undertook to show that the rumors and reports with refer ence to the “scoop” of tlie Central railroad by the Louisville and Nashville were baaed entirely j upon speculation, and that there wore siiffleient 1 reasons to believe them without foundation of fact, fine of our esteemed cotemporaries tried to throw ridicule upon this idea, by suggesting ; that it came from “a strictly reliable newspaper” I —u compliment that it did not intend ns such. The E.vquruER-SoN has made a careful invertiga- | tion of this whole matter, and the more is the evidence conclusive that we were right in the l first instance. OUR INVESTIGATION l shows that the excitement in reference to Central j railroad stogie was started in Augasta. It was started by a statement to the effect that Dr. West had announced himself a candidate for the office of president of the road,and was solicit ing proxies from stockholders in order to control the election. About this time Messrs. Branch A: Sons, brokers of Augusta, commenced purchasing stock and the stock began to rise. After buying several hundred shares they sold out when the price was about 80 cents. Then other parties took up the buying, and stock kept climbing up. It was at first reported that the standard oil company was the purchaser, and it was supposed this com- j pany wanted a connection with the Atlantic that he has no inclination to begin a newspnpei correspondence to which there would be no end. D»'iitli of Mrs. Rachel Jordan. Yesterday, at the family residence in this city in the seventy-ninth year of her a <c, died Mrs.’ Racial Jordan, after a long but almost painless sickness. Born in Columbia county, of this state, September 1.1808, Mr#. Jordan, whose maiden name was Gunby had just passed her seventy- eighth birthday, and lived the last, but one. of a large family of brothers and sisters. She was educated in Augusta, and marrying Mr. S. F. Jordan ovei a half century ago, they removed to Hancock county, and were residents of Sparta for many years At the earnest solicita tion of her children, who had adopted Columbus as their home, she moved to this city about twelve years since from Sparta, where she had spent her married life. To her many friends and relatives here and elsewhere there is no need to speak of her virtues. These are embalmed in their memories and need no eulogy from us.

Whatever our eyes could take in from 7 a. m. to 7 p. ni. First we saw a special train pull up at Broad street car shed and members of the Co lumbus and Southside Gun Clubs come from various directi* ns. armed and equipped for a con test. We saw them all get aboard and make themselves comfortable. Then we saw that the train was moving slowly over the riyer going westward. We heard a prolonged steamboat whistle, and looking out of the car window we saw the Naiad getting ready to leave on her downward trip. Very soon we perceived that Win. Keen had increased our speed, I and we were rapidly leaving Columbus and its I suburbs behind us. Very soon we saw I-Iow'd, ' the conductor, collect 75 cents each from those j on board ; but exactly how he did it, we did not | see, for almost to a man each had a silver dollar, j and he did not seem to have but five quarters and two halves with which to make change, i Then we saw the colored conductor, or porter, j or brakeman, say something to the real con- I ductor, and wo saw him pull the bell rope, and { we saw the car stop— and then we saw how J.

FOR TI1F RKNF.F1T OF ( II ARI.KSTON. ii at Webster Hail \ This gentleman of whom we speak called upon a broker who was buying the stock and related to him the interest manifested in Columbus over the matter, as it might seriously atfect the ex tension of the Columbus and Western The broker refused to tell him for whom he was buy ing the stock, but said: “The parties are as much interested in the extension of the Colum bus anil Western road as the Central railroad is. You can rely upon that.” there is still another report . on the wing, and gentlemen who are prominent in railroad circles give it credence, while gentle men equally as prominent seem to put no faith | in it. It is that the Richmond and Danville has gone into the scooping business and arc the real parties, and are at the bottom of all tho transac- ! tions. It is alleged that the purpose of this road is to make the Georgia Pacific and their other lines the connection. These are the rumors and reports developed by CAREFUL INVESTIG VTION; and after making the most diligent enquiries, we have been unable to fin 1 any person who pretends to know who is buying up this stock, or what is the real object to be accomplished. That corporation most interested in controlling the Central railroad is the one that would most probably make the effort to do so: and as all these corporations mentioned have reason for desiring to own the Central, there are, of course, persons who believe each is the right one. there are certain facts which are not concealed, but they are not suffi cient to establish the truth of either of these rumors. It is true that parties are buying up the stock. 1 Home of these arc brokers who say tliev are buy ing upon orders, but do not know who the stock is for. Whether all the orders are for the same party, or whether several parties are buying, is not known. One broker in Savannah lias purchased about 2000 shares, which is tlie largest amount bought by any one party. This is Mi. E. M. Green, a brother of Mr. Douglass Green, >>f the firm of Greeu Bateman, of New York. , Both Mr. Green and Green A- Bateman say they ! do not know who the stock is for, as the orders j come through other brokers. So far as known there has not been as much as 10,000 shares sold, but as stock may be sold by the holders without the aid of brokers, and as a transfer of the certificate alone would be suffi cient to carry the title, it may be that a much larger amount has changed hands. whose patriot spirits i have long awaited her there, have again met mother face to face. With a masked and active ! mind, a keen intellect, coupled with energy, judgment and modesty, this devoted mother had by precept and example taught those around her that this life demanded of them the per- fromance of high duties, and he who fully per formed them loved most and best: and was the better prepared to enjoy the glories of the ftiture. Singularly free from prejudice and superstition, she took broad views of all things and exenipli- | fied in her daily walk the beauties of a pure religion, as exemplified in simple Christianity, j Living always for the supreme hour wLicli j cometh to us all, it came to her - gladly welcomed I and found her cheerfully waiting.

A gentleman who is as prominent in railroad circles as any in this section, and who has no official connection with the Central railroad whatever, had a long talk with Capt.W. G.

Many years ago he took out two policies of insurance in The Mutual Life In- surance Company of New York, one for $ir>,ooo and the other for $5000. When these claims were settled the company paid $24,733, the $4733 being i a portion of the dividends which Mr. Heath had allowed to remain unused. The total premiums paid amounted to $6139.89, so that the company returned $18,953.11 more than he had paid in, or $4.04 for every dollar invested. This is only one of the thousands of illustrations of the advantage* of selecting The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York, which is the largest and strongest company in the world, and which, by strict econ omy of management, is enabled to make better returns to its policy-holders than any other com pany.—Atlantic City Review. TWO CLIPPINGS FROM THE BOSTON COURIER Charles E. Adams, of Springfield, Mass., had a life policy of $1000 in The Mutual Life Insurance Company, which amount was paid to his heirs last week. The total premiums paid had amounted to only $70.81. Caleb Thompson, of South Braintree, Mass., had an endowment pol icy in the same company which maiured and was paid to him, the total amount being $1231.82. The policies in The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York pay tlie holder at sett le nient about sy »per cent, compound interest on the investment. D. F.
