A new bmss band has been organized in the city. It is under the leadership of Mr. Louis Chase, and is composed of some of the bert young men in the city, all of whom are talented musicians.

A comp imentary german was given at the Perry House Inst night, complimentary to Miss Willie Eason, of Charleston. Quite u large num ber of young ladies and gentlemen were present, and the entertainment was one of the most en joyable that has been given in Columbus in a longtime. Everybody present bad a delight ftil time, ami the parting was tin* only sad feature of the evening. Chase’s orchestra furnished the music for the occasion. 1’mler Indictment fur Rape. Bailiff J. M. 1'tukev, of Harris comity, reached the city yesterday evening with J. M. Pratt, a young white man, in charge usu prisoner. Pratt was indicted for rnpe at the term of Harris superior court just ended, but on account of some informality in his bond he was rearrested. He was brought to the city to allow him to con sult his counsel, Hon. W. A. Little, and we un derstand that it is probable Judge Willis will hear his application for a now bond to-day. * Happy Marriage. Mr. John M. Schucssler and Miss Mittie Car lisle were married at 1:30 o’clock Sunday ufter- noon, at the residence of Mr. S. H. Carlisle, the bride's father. The ceremony uniting the desti nies of the happy pair was impressively perfront- ed in the presence of a throng of friends by Rev. W. R. Kirk. The groom is a son of the late Mr. L. Schucssler, long known in this sectiou as an upright and honest merchant. The bride is a re cent graduate of Shorter college, and is an ac complished, beautiful and lovely woman.— Chambers (Ala.) Democrat. Harris Superior Uou *t. Harris superior court adjourned at 12 o’clock yesterday, and Judge Willis and members of the Columbus bar in attendance returned to the city iu the afternoon. The grand jury in theirgeneral presentments had the following to say of the new solicitor-general: “And we tender our thanks to our able aud efficient solicitor-general, Albert A. Carson, for the courtesies and able manner in which he has conducted the business of the term, and we congratulate the circuit on securing such an able officer.” Lying Insensible. A policeman, whilst walking his beat on the lower end of Broad street, found a nicely dressed gentleman lying insensible, with a handsome gold watch and $100 on his person. He had fallen from an attack of heart disease. The gen- tlernau was found to be Mr. W. 8. Glover, of Co lumbus. He was taken to the Globe, where he is stopping.—Augusta Chronicle. Glover may he a citizen of Columbus, but at present writing we cannot recall any such man, and the chief of police also says that he never heard of him. Kennedy’s New England Ginger Snaps, fresh. Adams & Bowers. How He Gave Columbus the Law and the Prophets Last Night. A Large Audience Meets Him In the Unurt House. He H(N|iieMt* the Reporter Who Came to Take Down His Speech to Introduce Him- Uur- mir Intel's Wit -Unusual Seenes—The Janitor's Comment. The court house was comfortably crowded last night to hear Mr. James Y. Carmichael, of Cow eta county, who is said to be running as au inde pendent candidate for congress in this district. Mr. Carmichael came in with the audience and took his s at among them. lie is a plain, re- spcctablclookingfarmcr of perhaps seventy years of age, but still retains much of the vitality and vivacity of youth. The crowd soon all came in side, and the silence wns becoming oppressivi but still no movement was made toward the platform which the speaker was to occupy. It transpired that Mr. Carmichael had forgotten to nsk anybody to introduce him. On being reminded that it wns time to be gin his speech, Mr. Carmichael requested the reporter of the Enquirer-Son who had come to report his speech, to introduce him. The re porter, who was impatient for the exercises to open, readily consented. The reporter informed the audience that he was a democrat “after the straitest sect,” but that he understood that it was Mr. Carmichael’s intention to have three car loads of silver dollars appropriated for dis tribution iu each congressional district, and that if such was the case he was afraid that he would have to support him in spite of his conscientious scruples against independents. Here Mr. Car michael interrupted the reporter by pulling a crumpled circular from his pantaloons pocket, and requesting him to read it to the audience, as it stated his platform exactly. The circular was rend but it contained the identical statement about tho silver dollars which tlie reporter had made, and declared in addition that Mr. Carmichael was willing to pay the freight on the silver to this particular dis trict. At the conclusion of the reading of the circular, Mr. Carmichael was presented to the audience. He spoke for an hour, and his wit en tertained the crowd with unilagging interest to the test. A considerable portion of the speech was taken clown verbatim, and is reproduced be low. Mr. Carmichael said : “Fellow citizens: I am an old man. bufcl ain the youngest candidate in the United States. [Laughter.] I am only three weeks old as a candidate, though [ nra part my three score years and ten. It is the Saturday evening of life with me now; and I see much that needs doing whether it is ever done or not. I want to try to right these things in tho short time that is left to me. I am an old man and recollect a long ways back. I remem ber when I was a you/ig man that I tried living a bacheloi’s life, and I was miserable. Icon- eluded that ladies who were living a single life must be as miserable as I was. T love to make everybody happy. 8o that I thought I’d make somebody hnppy. [Laughter.] Forty-nine years ago I made a contract, with a lady to share my house, and we have beeu tolerably happy ever since. I advise all the bachelors present to do as I have done. It’s good for you. I want to make the whole human race happy. I want it remem bered that I have nothing against my friend Grimes. I am opposed to the government giving certain privileges to certain people that it don’t give to others. I have been raised in a family. Iu the Bible I see that one brother killed an other because God preferred his offering. I have seen the same thing in Coweta county. 1 Laugh ter ] Partiality in a family or anywhere else is a bad thing. Old .Jacob, who had trouble with Esau, still he gave Joe a little spotted coat. [Laughter.] Thht was partiailty again. Fami lies ought to live well together. All of you re member that. But let us turn to politics now. I have heard my grandmother tell with brinv tears about the troubles of the revolutionary war. My father came very near going into that war, hut he didn’t go. [Laughter,| He was a little sick aud couldn’t go. [Renewed laughter.] J lmd a little brother born nbout that time and I think that, had something to do with his getting sick. | Laughter.] I am a died-in-the-wool dem ocrat. I love the memory of Jefferson and old Hickory Jackson and all those old fellows. I believe in equal rights and the divine right of habeas corpus. In old times men had their rights under their owe vine and fig tree, and there was none to molest or to make them afraid. They could cat their potatoes and bread; they could eat their buttermilk | In lighter] and that was sixty years ago. llo v hard it would bo for a man to step off on to any other platform now. In them times we had state’s rights. The union didn’t make the states. The stales made the union. Yes, we had state rights and county rights and militia district rights. And no state dared to interfere with county rights or militia district rights. No, they dareu’t do it. [Ap plause.] Them rights were fought for. Oh! they were fought nobly for. How many dear, noble boys arc to-day lying in the cold clay contending for them rights. That was a bad war. My fam ily was in it. I was not in it. myself, but I come mighty nigh it. [Laughter | My son kept me from going. [Laughter.] 11c* was born just after the first battle of Manassas. [Laughter.] Ilis name is Joseph E. Bartow. I had a son-in-law there, lie was shot through the clotlica fourteen times. 1 didn’t fight; [laughter] but I came as near doing my duty as any man could, i took things to them that did fight. I Laughter.] Them was the happiest days of my life when l was taking boxes and trunks loaded with good things to the boys in Virginia. I used to get on one of the boxes and make speeches to tho boys and make ’em cry and make ’em happy. But what has that got to do with the subject? | Loud laughter.] I am in favor of con stitutional government. But talkin’ about the war, there was a boy .born at my house every year during the war. [Laughter.] 1 was try in’ to whip the yanlcees that way. [Laughter.] 1 was in Virginia awhile and in Georgia awli n e. I kept going backwards and forwards, and them boys kept being born. I Laughter.] I was always around when it happened—seem like 1 couldn’t help it. [Laughter.] I came very near being sent to the lunatic asylum ouco. [Loud laughter and applause.J My father- in-law, who was in his dotage, gim my wife a uigger woman that was so mean uobody couldn’t mange her. Well, 1 sold her aud some other niggers to get money to help along my hoys in the war. Well, there was an old preacher in our neighborhood. He had sons in the war. But he got to clinging to his nigger property and loving ’em. He said I was crazy for selling my niggers. He got up a petition for everybody to sign that 1 was crazy und was selling all my niggers. Well, they couldn’t got me in the asylum unless my wife signed it, and she would’t. She said she thought more of me than all the niggers in the southern con federacy. She said I said if our boys got whipped the niggers wouldn’t be worth ten cents a thousand. Gentlemen, you know you may love anybody till you think you can’t love 'em any more. But they’ll do something that will make you love ’em more still. Well, that’s the way I am by my wife for keeping me out of the asylum. [Laughter]. I love her more aud more for it yet, and old as I nra I can’t hardly stay away from her now. [Laughter.] But that’s not on the subject in hand, (Laughter.I Talk about politics. The beardless boys now say you ain’t a dimocrat if you don’t vote fertile diinocrat nom inee. 1 asked some of them what is a dimocrat. - { They said the democracy is the white man’s gov ernment. That’s what I call a one-plank plat form. The bondholders are the only very white men. They are white as they can bo. Is the democracy a bondholder’s government. I ain’t down on the bondholder. J want to protect him. I want to protect them from dynamite and every other niite that might bite. [Laughter.] This government can’t stand five years longer unless there’s a change. Mark it; oh, mark it, you men of the white one plank platform! It there ain’t a change this country won’t stand five years longer. For the Scripture says: “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” The dynamiters arc in session to-night, getting ready to throw dynamite or any other kind of inite. I tell you capital and labor is the Siamese twins who, if you cut the ligament, you kill both, who were cheek by jowl. Let the bondholders invest their money in en terprise, and we’ll get some of it. The bond holders ought to be made to pay the taxes of the government for the next quarter of a century, as they have been without taxation for a quarter of a century. I tell you my forefathers fought for these principles. Several of them fell and one who was fighting iugtms got scalped. [Laughter.] Poor old fellow, he wSb a sight. [Laughter.] 1 never want to see another such a sight. (Laugh ter.] Now about the Mormon question. I’ll tell you how to fix that. You know there’s something about a man, and a woman, too, that you can t explain. [Laughter.] .A man wants one woman for a wife and a woman wants one man for a husband. But people who c.in’t get a whole loaf are willing to take a half. [Laughter.] In old times men were allowed to have more than one wife because tho men killed up their fool selves fighting, and there weren’t men enough to go ’round. Wlmt I want to do is to distribute the surplus silver dollars in the United State) treasury so as to give men enough and keep ’em., from fighting and killing each other, anrl then every woman can have her man. [Applause.] But when men are scarce we have to huve Mormoniffm to equalize things. If there is ever another \var in the United States I think we’ll have to have Mormonism in every state in ttye union. [Loud and prolonged ap plause.] Yes, let’s, distribute that surplus in the treasury. We need $5(0,000 of it in Coweta county . to fix up our lands with. [Laughter.] W<? can’t afford to feed our hands that we hire there, but about seven months in the year. [Laughter.] The rest of the time they have.to root hog or die—which is to say, steal. | Laughter] Let the surplus in the treasury bo distributed aud invested, ft will give the people work, aiul t.he more they work the more children they’ll have [loud laughter] and the country will become populous and prosper ous. 1 am growing hoarse, so I’ll say I have put myself before the people, and my feelings won’t be hurt 'whether you vote for me or nctij The other night my opponent and friofrt-Grimes said he indorsed my platform. There was a crowd, of my friends and his there, and tlitf friends of both of us told me that, as Grimes had indorsed my platform and there was no issue Between us, that they had decided that 1 had better go home and stay there [laughter], as Mr. Griiues was the regular nomi nee and had been brought out first. [Laughter. I But I told ’em no; that l was going around and cast my bread on the waters. [Laughter.] Jefferson said every man was en titled to life, [liberty and the persuit of happiness. Borne, if a Roman was poor he had to be respected. That’s the kind of u republican platform I stand on. I believe iu givin* no striped jackets to favorite Josephs. [Laughter.] I’ll now JBool*, and if any many representing the one-plank white platform wants to reply I’ll rest till he gels through.” (Here Mr. Carmichael sat down, and the silence became so awkward, and dense and thick, that you could cut ir, with a knife like cheese. No representative of the white one plank platform was present. Or if he was lie was afraid to show his head. •Seeing that no oue dared to reply, Mr. Car michael arose and continued:] “I’ll never see you all again [laughter], though I’ll be back through here in a day or two. [Laughter.| I want you all to pray for this country. ] Here every man in the crowd seemed to think he was in imminent danger of being culled on to pray in public; suid there was a gen eral stampede for the door. The speaker gazed at his vani h ng audience in mingled amaze ment and disgurt v 'jj and au the last platoon of stampeders were crowding and wedging through the *loqr he exclaimed:] “1 say good night.” This 1 ended tho performance; and a moment later the reporter and a friend who was waiting for him, and the colored court house janitor were left alone in the room. The reporter told the janitor to keep the lights burn ing live minutes until fie could finish his notes. The negro janitor said he would, and came over to the tublo where the reporter was writing. Looking the reporter straight in the eye, the janitor said: “Boss, is dat man rumriu’?” “Yes.” The janitor’s porcelain eyes rolled heavenward; his ivories were unveiled like a row of tomb stones, and he said with slow aud solemn em phasis, 4 *gra! ega n d lem Ity! ” Happily Mu tot!. At the residence of the bride’s uncle, Itou. Jesse Cox, of Harris county, yesterday at 1:30, by Rev. Robert IT. Harris, pastor of the First Baptist church of tliis city, Mr. Polk Harris, of this city and Miss Carrie Weld oil) of Harris county, were united in marriage. The groom is a grandson of Hon. James Cox,ot Catania, and is an enterprising and exemplary young gentleman. He is salesman at the popu lar jewelry store of Wittlch & Kinscl. The bride is a charming and cultured young lady, and is a graduate of the Southern female college of La- Grange. The bridal presents were numerous, handsome and useful. Immediately after the ceremony an elegant dinner was served. Mr. and Mrs. Harris arrived in the city last night and have taken apurlments at the resi dence of Mr. F. J.

It will be remembered by the readers of the Enquirer-Sun that about three weeks ago the gin house of Mr. William Byrd, a faimerofLee county, Ala., was burned. It was thought at the time that it was the work of an incendiary, but not until Tuesday and Wednesday of this week were the guilty parties apprehended. Bill Grant, a negro, was caught on Tuesday, and on Wed nesday morning Jesse Bryant and “Cindy” Hol- laman, a negro man and woman, were captured. Mr. William Jones, the live, energetic and effi cient constable of beat 10, was the officer who captured all three of these black-skinned and blacker-hearted criminals. They confess to the crime, and give as their reason that they wanted money and stole about a bade of cotton from the house before setting fire to it. They had a pre liminary trial before Judge McElvy, in Browne ville, yesterday and were committed to jail at Opeljka. HOTEL ARRIVALS. RANKIN HOUSE. M. A. Gregg, St. Louis; J. S. Canon, Savannah; A. J.
