We are requested by Judge Willis to say that Kuoogee superior court will not be organized next Monday. That is the day in course, but for the reason of the absence of several members of the bar it will be adjourned for a week. Judge Willis says that it is unnecessary for any of the jurors or witnesses who have been summoned to attend next Monday. The Election In the Fourth. The managers of the congressional election tor Muscogee county met in this city yesterday and consolidated the vote. The total vote oast ‘was669, of which Hon. Thomas W.

Of course Grimes is elected by an overwhelming minority. Another Itailroad Purchase. There is a lino of twcpiy miles of railroad faded from Birmingham to the Henryellen coal mines, owned by Mr. H. F. Do Bardeleben. It has never been ironed but wo are told it is now mady for the ties and track. A letter from there yesterday iu which the writer, who is in a posi tion to be frilly informed of such a transaction, states that the Georgia Central has bought the road bed and will iron and equip it in lime for the next season’s business. This will put Colum bus nearer to the coal fields than any other city except Montgomery, and doubtless our people cun get equally as good rates. .4 II tippy I’d inn of Hearts. At the residence of the bride’s father, Mr. Rob-' ert Bizc, in this city, last night, Mr. Bartow F. Wilson and Miss Lula Bize were united in mar riage. The ceremony was performed nt 9 o’clock by ltev. R. H. Harris, pastor of the First Baptist church. There were no attendants, and only a few intimate friends were present. The display of bridal presents embraced numerous handsome and valuable articles. The groom is a popular salesman in G. E. Thomas’ clothing store, and is one of the most genial, talented and upright young gentlemen in the city. Ho has been exceedingly fortunate in securing for a bride one of the most highly fa vored of all of Columbus’ thir daughters, who by her many accomplishments and personal charms has made herself a general favorite. The Enquirer-Son joins the host of friends of the happy couple iu the wi«h that their friture may always be as bright as is the beginning of their wedded life. Personal. Mr. John F.

Robert Downing will appear at Springer Opera House next Monday night in “The Gladiator.” The New York Dramatic, in speaking of him, has the following to say: “This handsome tragedian’s portrait appears on our title-page, in connection with Edwin For rest and John McCullough. Mr. Downing stars oext season in “The Gladiator,” under the man agement of Mr. Jos. H. Mack, who has pur chased the exclusive rights of that play from the McCullough estate, and will produce it with spectacular effects, historically accurate, both in scenery and costumes. The supporting company will be exceptionally strong, composed chiefly of members from the late John McCullough company who have distinguished themselves in this play. Robert Downing has rare ability, a magnificent physique and per sonal appearance, a voles of melody and power, and an unusual amount of personal magnetism. He has received deservedly high praise fromwtaw press and public of America while leading sup-* Alderman yprtis (moved to »reconsider the ac tion taken at tjie last meeting of the council, au thorizing the appointment of four additional po licemen, and moved that only two be appointed. Alderman McArdle moved to amend the mo tion by instructing the police committee to dis mount the two mounted officers and add them to the regular force. Alderman Curtis accepted the amendment and the motion was adopted. This will necessitate a revision of the “beats,” and will add only two new policemen to the force. An election for city engineer was entered into, and Captain B. H. Hudron was unanimously elected. Alderman Dozier complained that the keeper of the magaz tie was violating a city ordinance by allowing a certain firm in the city a rebate on the rate of storage for blasting powder. He said the ordinance provided that one cent a pound should be collected on "powder stored in the magazine, and he did not beli* ve the keeper had a right to make a reduction. He knew his honor, the mayor, hod given the opinion that the keep er had the right to make a rebate, as the storage fee wus a part of the keeper's salary, but he did not think so. Mayor Grimes stated that he had given such an opinion and he believed it was right. The keep er had a right to give away his perquisites if be desired to do so. The keeper had said that he was willing to make the same arrangements with all other dealers in powder. After a lengthy discussion, in which nearly every member of eouncil engaged, the matter was referred to the city attorney for his opinion aa to whether the magazine keeper has a right, under the Ohlitiarice, to give a rebate. There being no other business, council then adjourned. 1 THE UOVt’EMT TO-NIUUr. A Musical Entertainniciii for the lleucflt of the Public Library.

A Collation of Interesting News Items and Per sonal Paragraphs. Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. Delta, Macon County, Ga., November 2.— “Three frosts and then a rain.” This old adage, handed down from generation to generation, has at last proved false. When the three frosts came the weather prophets predicted rain without fail; but alas! their predictions, like those of more distinction, are registered upon the pages of the past as being unworthy the notice of friture gen erations. It will be but just, howf ver,to overlook their short comings in this instance, for we all know “that all signs fail in dry weatfrer.” The state fair has drawn its share of patronage from tills section. Quite a number have attended and express themselves as highly pleased with the exhibition. Some were so well pleased that they will return this week. The country com plains of hard times and the scarcity of money, but when the gates of a state fair are opened the last dollar and half-dollar pieces naturally wend their way to the ticket seller’s vaults. Nothing but a circus hath more charms for the average countryman as well as the more genteel city gen tleman. ' * Last Sabbath quite a large congregation assem bled at the academy to hear a sermon from Rev. J. A. J. Kimball, but from some unknown cause the preacher failed to attend. His non-atten dance caused no little disappointment. The barge built by Mr. James Saunders for Mr. William Minor, of Montezuma, is anchored in the Flint river several miles below here. Mr. Saunders made an effort to take it down the river to Montezuma, but owing to the very low stage of the river he soon learned that it would be impossible to take it through. On the first slight rise Mr. S. thinks ha will anchor in her destined port. Last week a party of gentlemen consisting of steamboat men aud the editor of the Montezuma R cord made a survey of the upper Flint from the Old Ageacv, in Crawford county, to Mon-, tezuina. They report the upper as good, if not better, than the river below for navigation. Editor Christopher appears somewhat enthused over the prospect of navigating the upper river. Would that we had many such men of energy and perseverance. To his persistent efforts is due in a greet measure the success of the boats' now i mining below. He meets no barrier that his indomitable will does not surmount. May his ardor aud zeal never diminish until the hoarse whittle of the steamboat is beard in this section, arousing giul infusing new life into every farmer adjacent the river. Sunday night about 8 o’clock, a negro house at the residence of Mrs; E. J Dniughan, on the Wilbur plantation, was burned down, and a little negro child about 6 years old was burned to death. The parents of the child—as is the usual custom -left the litile ones fardened up in the house and went elf to preaching. When found the two oldest had escaped from the burning, but the cries of the little oue within could be heard calling for mama. When the body was re covered it had burned to a crisp the head, arms and feet having been severed from the body. Mr. J. A. J.
