Mr. T. .1. Jackson.
Mr. T. J. Jackson, of the composing room force
of the Enquirer-Sun, entered upon his sixtieth
year on yesterday. He is by far the oldest printer
in Columbus, though lie is yet healthy, stout and
vigorous, and appears good for many years to
come. He has always done his work well, and is
making a clean record as lie goes along through
life. His friends hope lie may be spared many
happy years of life.
Mr. Jackson began as a printer in Eufaulu in
1814 during the Clay ami Polk campaign. He
came to Columbus in ’53 and commenced work
with Lamar & Ellis, of the Columbus Times.
’There were published in Columbus at that time
the Columbus Times, the Columbus Enquirer,
the Corner Stone and a monthly agricultural pa
per edited by Messrs. Chambers A Peabody. All
of these combined had a force of only about
twenty printers and editors. He is the survivor
of the number now engaged in the business. Tho
Enquirer and Times had just commenced the
publication of tri-weekly papers, and published
seven or eightcolumns of reading matter every
other day, which was thought at that time to be
very enterprising. There were no press dis
patches and no night work, and the expenses of
the four offices at that time were not equal to one-
third of that of the Enquirer-Sun of to-day.
Marriages Yesterday.
Mr. William A. Ward and Miss Eliza J. Barden,
daughter of the late Mr. J. W. Barden, were
married at the residence of the bride yester-
duy morning at 7:30 o’clock, Rev. G. G. N. Mac-
donell performing the ceremony. The bride is
one of Columbus’ most popular and charming
young ladies, and is well known and beloved.
The groom is n progressive young farmer of La-
Fayette, Alu. All who know them extend their
best wishes. They departed for La Fayette, their
future home, at 8:20 o’clock, amid a shower of
rice, old shoes and good wishes. May all their
expectations be realized.
Mr. J. A. Ramsey, of LaFayette, Ala., and
Miss Jennie Watt, of this city, were married at
the residence of the bride’s mother, on Second
avenue, at 7 o’clock yesterday morning, Rev, R.
if. Harris performing the ccreihony. The bride
possesses all the good qualities, accomplishments
and graces to adorn a home. Mr. Ramsey is a
gentleman, a progressive farmer, and a mun of
prominence and influence in his section. Their
many admirers and friends wish them a happy
voyage through life. They also left on the same
train and for the same destination as did tho
former couple.
What is Columbus’ loss is La Fayette's gain.
Suren Hi.
This evening ushers in the Feast of Booths for
the Israelites. This festival is designated in
Scripture, (see Lev. 23:38*44», as u “Feast of Joys,”
and is commemorative of the time when the
Israelites after being delivered from Egypt for
the first fall season were living in booths. It
was ordained then hut intended thereafter when j
they shall have couie to Palestine, to become a I
thanksgiving festival for the bounties of God’s j
blesssiugs received during the past year, as it was t
the close of tho harvest, of corn, wine and oil. |
The Israelites of the present day celebrate it like j
all stated occasions mentioned in Scripture, and |
it'it is not a thanksgiving for the corn, wine and
oil they gather, it is a thanksgiving for the beam- |
ties of God’s blessing, symbolized by those pro- :
does his or her work in u most complete way. We
looked in vain for a bad or commonplace act. As
n circus, it is certainly a success, and in fact ex
ceeded our expectations. The show is in every
way worthy of patronage.”

Sunk l»y Die Naiad.
Mr. W. E. Carlisle, while ro.ving a boat just be
low the hospital yesterday morning, was struck
by a wave from the Naiad on her down trip, and
his boat sunk. Mr. Carlisle says that he went
down in about thirty feet of water. His gun and
ammunition went down with him, and, finding
himself too much encumbered to swim, he re
mained under the water long enough to
pull off his coat before attempting to rise to
the surface. While pulling ol)' his coat he
held his gun botweeu his legs. As ho rose he
curried his gun and am munition up with him,
but turned his coat loose. After swimming to
the bank he saw his coat tloatiug down the river
and jumped in again and saved it. He says that
he had a hard time in reaching the shore, and
that the officers of the Naiad passed on without
offering him any assistance.
Talk About Artesian Wells.
Yesterday eveniug a party of gentlemen stand
ing on a Broad street corner were discussing the
low river and its effect upon the trade of Colum
bus. One gentleman suggested that artesian
wells be bored north of the city to supply the
river with water. This brought up the subject
of artesian wells generally, and one gentleman
asked why Columbus could not have at least one.
It was suggested that it would be necessary to
bore too deep, but it was mentioned that several
towns south of Columbus were enjoying the lux
ury of artesian water. The final conclusion was
that there is no reason why Columbus should not
have an artesian well. It now only remains to
see who will take the lead in the matter.

that Manning, Twitchell, Smith and Gillen will
play with the club without reserve.
The Enquirer, speaking of Saturday’s Balti-
more-Cincinnati game, says : “The greatest feat
ure of the game was a remarkable one-handed
catch by Sowders in center field. It was in the
seventh inning, and Reilly hit a long, high fly to
right-center. Sowders ran with the ball for o
distance, finally jumping high up in the air and
captured it with one hand. In catching it he
fell and turned a couple of somersaults, bui he
held on to the balk It was one of the greatest
catches'ever made on the Cincinnati grounds.”
