A good congregation assembled at the Broail Street Methodist church last night to hear the report of the committees appointed to raise money to finish paying the debt on the church. The reports showed the cash raised since last meeting to be $155.51. The amount raised in good subscription was $187.50. There yet re mains a small balance of about $135, which the pastor and others think can, by good efforts, be raised within the next thirty (lays. Many of the members of the church arc making heavy per sonal sacrifices to accomplish the laudable pur pose of bringing the church < ut of debt. A little help from any citizen will be most Wor thily bestowed and gratefully received. The Broad street church has accomplished a good work in our midst. Good church edifices gobs far towards indicating the tone and character of GENERAL FREIUHT Ai.KNT S STATEMENT. The report of Mr. T. C. S.

Claytcn died at the home of Iris, daughter, in this city, yesterday about 1 o’clock, ttiler an illness of eight days of pneumonia. This simple announcement will carry a pang of sorrow to the hearts of many readers of the Enquirer-Sun. Col. Clayton was one of the very first settlers cf Columbus. He was born in Louis ville, (la., on the 12th of October, 18C4, anil came to this city when it was still an nnhewed forest, and the red man bathed his heated brow in the rippling waters of the Chattahoochee. He knew Columbus from her infancy to the meridian of an active and progri ssive life. No man has lived here whose history has been more closely identi fied with that of the city. He was elected a lieutenant of the Columbus Guards when the company was first organized in 1836, and aided in driving the hos tile Indians from our doors. In all the relations of life Colonel Clayton has been a true and gen erous man. He had few, if any, enemies, aud lived the life of an upright Christian. In death he had the “rod and the staff” to comfort him. For many years before his death he had been en gaged In the cotton business, and was well known throughout this section. He had a host ot friends who will regret to learn of his death He leaves only two children—Mrs. M. C. Lary and Mrs. H. G. Bead, who, in their sad* bereav - nient, have the sincere sympathy of this entire community. The funeral of Colonel Clayton will take place at 3:30 o'clock from St. Luke church, ol which he was a member. Tot uls 2,530,735 ELECTION OP OFFICERS.

Shciuhii Atseretli. The Feast of the Eighth Day Assembly as ordained in scriptures, Lev. 23:36 nnd Numb. 29:35, is the concluding festival of the Feast of Booths, and will bo celebrated by the Israelites tq-morrow, beginning with this evening. The Feast of Booths being one of tho three chief festivals whereon Israel was eujoined to assemble at the holy city and the pilgrims from all over Judne aud Galilee made this the most impressive of the three, owing, doubtless, to the season it fell on, the harvest afforded them means to visit the city of David and spend lib erally for sacred purposes and holy glee. Tho Feast of Booths made Jerusalem the seat of mer riment and jubilee, but the Eighth Day Feast was the most noted, being the last day. With a dreary winter before them the Israelites availed themselves of the opportunity the Jewish capital offered them and indulged in merrimaking ere they departed not to return for over five mouths —i. e., till the Feast of Passover. This was the day that Solomon chose to dedi cate his gorgeous temple (see I. King, 8:66), which became the architectural momment of the whole world, nnd this was the day whereon Ezra dedicated the second temple when the Israelites returned from the Babelonian captivity (see Nehem, 8-18), and this day, although not commemorative of any event besides its import ance as a thauksgivii g day, is still perpetuated ns ordained in scriptures by the Israelites, and services in the synagogue \vi l be held to-night at 7 c\ lock. Tho Rabbi L. Weiss will deliver a dis course suitable to the occasion, aud to-morrow morning at 9:j0 o’clock. All are welcome. PLKJIITKD VOWS. Marriage of Mr. Milton Howard and MIh* Kaffir ThompKon.
