Cotton Farts.
We have received a copy of “Cotton Facts,” a
uety useful little book published by A. B. Sliep-
peraoii, of New York. It is probably the most
complete book of its kiud that has been issued,
mnd presents nearly every statistical ftict relating
to the trade in cotton which could be of service.

To Be Called To-Day.
The case of the state of Alabama vs. Len Ogle-
tree, charged with the murder of Needham Ben-
field, will be called for trial in Russell circuit
court to-day. One hundred jurors have been
summoned, and the trial is exciting considerable
interest on account of the prominence of the par
ties. It will be remembered that the tragedy
which necessitates this trial occurred at Fort
Mitchell last spring.
The City Election.
The city election takes places on the second
Saturday in December, and a lively fight will be
made for some ol the offices. There are two al-
dcrmtnic tickets in the field, and both are work

The Georgia Central Ntock Httll Bohwlig—Now
Railroads Projected to Connect Georgia and
Alabama.
There was no new rumor In concoction with
the Central railroad yesterday, but the people
continued to discuss the proposed change of the
management. The Savannah News of Tuesday
had the following:
“There was quite a strong undertone to the se
curity market*yesterday and some of the leaders
were advanced. City of Bav&nnah bonds went
up half a point and Southwestern railroad stock
half a point.
“Central stock was excited and irregular, with
a firm undertone. It closed quite feverish at 109,
an advance of two points on the day's transac
tions. This is the highest it has been this year.
Several hundred shares changed hands yesterday
at 108. A good many small holders are holding
for 110, and n good many were ready to sell at 109
yesterday when the market closed.
“It is not kaown at what figure Mrs. Green has
offered her stock, but it is said at 115, so that in
any event the markot will not be likely to go
above that. There is no telling what it may do
under 115, or even above that figure, although
from everything upon whioh an opinion can be
based the chances seem to be against its going
much higher,
“A good many are holding on with the idea
that the stock will command almost any price in
event of a close contest for the presidency, in
which a few hundred or thousand shares may
control the balance of power. There is more
guess work, however, than knowledge in regard
to the movement of the stock or what is going
on behind the soenes among the manipulators.”
From Martin to Birmingham.
Wo find the following in the Birmingham Age,
of yesterday:
“An Age reporter heard a rumor yesterday to
the effect that the Macon and Covington railroad
was to be extended to Birmingham, and sought
Major W. A. Handley, who is always good au
thority on such matters, for frirther particulars.
‘“Yes, sir; you have heard the truth this time.
A company has been formed in Alabama, the
purpose of which is to consolidate with the Ma
con and Covington Railroad Company and ex
tend tliat line of road to this place by way of
Roanoke, Ashland and Talladega. The charter
members of this company are Messrs. J D. Moore,
David Manly and W. A. Handley, of this city, and
Messrs. J. G. Hill and J. L. Forbes, of Roanoke.
We applied to the secretary of state for a com
mission to organise, a few days ago, and that
commission was granted us to-day. I shall now
go to work along the line of the road and raise
ten percent, of the capital stock, and the incor
porators will meet in Roanoke, elect directors
and send in an application for a charter in this
state. The road will be stocked and bonded at
from $12,000 to $15,000 per mile.
“What is the route of the road you propose to
consolidate with?”
“Well, the road commences at Macon, Ga., and
runs on through Covington to Honticello. This
much of the road is already in operation, under
the name of the Macon and Covington railroad.
From Moniicello the roud is at present being
built by way of Griffin to LaU range, and thence
to the Alabama line. Our idea is to join them at
the state line and build on to this city by the
route which I have already described. The
Georgia division company is composed of good
men, among them Cols. W. E. H. Leary, Sullivan
and Pruitt.”
“This is not simply a railroad on paper, is it,
m^jor?”
No, sir; I fully believe that it will be built. Ib
fact, I am confident of it. The twelve or fifteen
thousand dollars have already been pledged by
New York capitalists, and no doubt whatever
exists in my mind as to its speedy completion as
soon as a charter is issued to the company.
A southern branch of the Macon and Covington
road is also being built, which will extend from
Macon to some point in F orida. It will pasH
through Athens, Ga., where it will connect
with the Richmond and Danville system of
roads.”
“Do the Gooargia people seem anxious to build
this road? ”
“Yes, indeed, for it benefits them more, possi
bly, than it does us. You see that as soon as the
Kausas City railroad has been completed llir-
ugham will become the gnat distributing
ismix, esq. The attendant, wore Mr. R. A. Mor- | polnt of Ul0 south . Then u ; e cteoigtn people

is the daughter of the late Rev. W. T. Bartley.

Mr. Silas Smith and Miss Martha Burton weic

AlcMichael Tuesday night at 8:30 o’clock.
George G. N. MncDonoll performed theoere-
luony. There were no attendants. The groom
is an industrious and worthy young fuvmer of
this county, and the bride, who is a siHtcr of Mrs.
McMichacl, is a most excellent young lady. The
many friends of the happy couple wish for them
* prosperous future.
Beatli in Harris County.
Mr. Thomas Hall died lust Friday night at his
home in Cochran district, Harris county. Ho
would have been 90 years of age upon his next
birthday, and many years of his long and usefril
l ilfc were spent in Harris county. He was the
fkther of Mrs. E. G. Tucker and Mrs. Nat Hutch
inson, of Chtpley, the step-father of Mr. I. A. Me-
Curry, of Hamilton, and has one son, a resident
of Atlanta. He was a successful farmer, a gen
tleman whom everybody esteemed, and a worthy,
consistent, exemplary member of the Primitive
Baptist church.
Married Last Night.
At the residence of the bride's brother in this
City last night, at 8:30 o’clock, Mr. A. W. Drew,
of Marianna, Fla., aud Miss Hcnnie Brodnax,
were, united in marriage. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. Walker Lewis. There were
oo attendants.
The groom is a prosperous and popular young
business man of Marianna, and is to be congrat
nlated upon his success in winuing one of the
Ihirest and most highly favored of Columbus'
charming daughters. The ENquiRiin-8uN joins
the many friends of the happy couple in wishing
for them a bright and prosperous future.
The Weather Yesterday.
A telegram was received from the Alabama
signal service yesterday morning at 10:15, saying
that “the temperature will probably full from 20
to 30 degrees in the next 24 hours.” Yesterday
afternoon about 3:30 o’clock the hardest rain of
the season began to fall and continued until
nearly night. The streets were flooded in many
places, and several unimportant washouts were
reported in the railroads. There is no probability
that there will be any frirther complaint of a low
river this season. Late last night it was evident
that the weather was turning colder.
Personal.

Miss Mamie Peabody.

markets.”
Now Itiiiiroad KiilcrprUcii.
The Montgomery Advertiser says: “A declara
tion was filed with the secretary of state yester
day for the incorporation of t he Griffin, LaGrange
and Western railroad by W. E. H. Hearcey, T. P,
Rockwell, J. W. Sullivan, J. G. Truitt, I. G. Hill,
J. S. Forbes, W. A. Handley, D. Manly and J. I)
Moore, with a capital stock of $1,500,000. The
road is designed to run from Griffin, Ga., by way
or LaGrange, Roanoke, Ashland and Talladega
to Birmingham.
“There was also filed a declaration for the in
corporation of the Birmingham, LaGrange and
Macon railroad by B. H. Bigham, Win. C. Yan
cey, Roberts. McFarlin, E. D. Pitman, J. F. B.
Jackson, E. W. Rucker, F. B. Lyons, Jos. F.
Johnson and John T. Milner, with a capital
f lock of $500,000. This road is designed to run
about the same line as the first, after leaving La-
Grange. Either road, if built, will traverse por
tions of Randolph, Clay and other counties sadly
in need of railroad facilities, and would do much
toward building up and developing the mineral
and other resources of the country along their
lines.”
BILLS OF LOCAL INTEREST.
The Extension of the Limits of the City—Proposed
CliangeH in the City Court, Etr.
Hou. T. J. Chappell introduced in the legisla
ture yesterday a bill for the extension of the cor
porate limits of the city of Columbus. This bill
was introduced at the request of the mayor and
council of the city of Columbus, ami of quite a
number of the citizens and property owners re
siding in the proposed extension.
The bill was referred to the commit tee on cor
porations. At the instance of Mr. Clmppell the
committee has postponed the consideration of
the bill until Thursday afternoon, the 25th inst.,
at which time by courtesy of the committee par
ties at interest will be heard, whether for or
against the bill. The proposed extension covers
a square mile immediately north of the city, nnd
the propriety of the annexation is to be submit
ted separately on the same day to the vote of the
city and of the territory the consent of both be
ing necessary to the annexation.
The city court of Columbus will probably re
ceive some touches' at the hAnds of the legisla
ture with a view to reducing the expenses of the
same, and carrying out the suggestions cf the
grand jury and of the special committee appoint
ed by them, among which are the appointment
of a solicitor by the judge, reducing the traverse
jurors to eighteen, striking the jury ike of $3 and
charging a doeket the of $1, etc.
After a Murderer.
A telegram was received at Opelika Tuesday
eveuiug from Camp Hill which says a party is
pursuing George Hart, one of the murderers of
vouna Waldrop, near Notasqlga, and it is thought
he will soon be captured. The telegram called
for blood hounds to be sent to Notasulga, but
there were none in Opelika.
LOCAL LACONICS.
—The steamer Amos Hays will leave for Apa
lachicola this morning at 8 o’clock,
—Dun don and Schellhaase have signed with
Syracuse, New York, for next season.
—Indications for Georgia: Fair weather, pre
ceded by light rains in the eastern portion and
colder northwesterly winds.
—It is said that the rain yesterday evening
caused one or two breaks in the track of the
Georgia Midland. They will be repaired at once.
—During the rain yesterday afternoon the
wind blew a tree across the street railroad track
on upper Broad street.
—The tin roof on the old Western depot was
raised by the wind yesteiday evening.
—The Macon Telegraph says: Capt. Jim Dense
has taken a position with the Southern Express
Company, and made his first run last night, go
ing to Albany. The captain is one of the oldest
expressmen in the state.
—The new sewer built last snm.-i er on Second
avenue, between Tenth and Eleventh streets,
sunk about eighteen inches yesterday during
the heavy rain. The sink was doubtless caused
by the loose dirt and not a break in the sewer.
A hackmau driving in from the depot yester
day evening about dark drove into a sunken
sewer on Twelfth street. His horse fell and it
was with some difficulty he got him up. Fortu
nately the horse was not hurt.
—Macon Telegraph: Ex-Manager Jack Peltz.
formerly of the Macon ball team, arrived last
night from New Orleans, aud will remain here all
the winter. Mr. Peltz will reeeive his frieuds at
the opening of Heidingsfelder’3 corner saloon on
Wharf street to-night.
Patti Ilona. J
Patti Rosa will appear as “Zip” at Springer
Opera House to-morrow night, and will no doubt
be greeted by a large audience. The Omaha Re
publican has the following to say of her:
Patti Rosa entertained an audience at the
Boyd last night that filled every seat and qll the
standing room. Patti Rosa is an awful ejever
little actress. The man or woman who could ait
through one of her performances and not enjoy
it would certainly possess a very unhealthy and
disagreeable disposition. She is cute, pretty,
vivacious and charming. In fact she reminds
old theatre-goers of Lotta more vividly than any
of the many alleged soubrettes in this country
who have attempted to follow in
the footsteps of that famous artist.
Judging from the fact that Lotta has
given Patti Rosa permission to produce her fa
vorite plays, she, too, must deem the young lady
her legitimate and most worthy successor. Last
night Patti Rosa appea ed as “Zip,” which gave
her the opportunity of introducing several songs
and dances with baujo accompaniment, thus
allowing full scope for an excellent display of her
versatile powers. With an immense and enthu
siastic audience applauding her continually and
an elegantly set stage, you can gamble your last
sickle that she took advantage of the opportunity
and fairly threw herself. Each of her songs was
encored two and three times. As to her work in
thq,character, every one will agree that it was
smooth, artistic and successful. The company
supporting Patti Rosa is well balanced and each
member plays his or her part splendidly.”
Death of Her. Dr.K. Landrum
Rev. S. Landrum, D. D., died at the home of
his son-in-law, Rev, B. W. Bussey, at Brunswick,
on Tuesday, and hia r- mains were interred at
Macon yesterday. The Atlanta Constitution, in
noticing his death, has the following:
“This news will be received with deep regret
by thousands of Georgians. Dr. Landrum was
for many years a leader among the Baptist
preachers of tho state. He was paptor.of the
church at Macon, then at Savannah, then at At-
lauta, and th.eu at Memphis, Tenn. ,
“It was while he was the pastor i f the Central
Baptist chuioh in the last mentioned city that he
made a national reputation by his devoted at
tention to the 8:ok during the terrible yellow
fever epidemic of 1877. He labor-d night and
day, knowihg no fear, and responding tq every
call made upon him. Two noble sons, Herbert
and George, fell victims to the epidemic, but he
did not cease his labors.”
“When the epidemic was over Dr. Landrum
and his wife, who had remained by his aide
throughout all the suffering ami death, removed
again to Savannah. Subsequently, he wHS rfgvnt
of Merci-r University, which position he resigned
to accept the pastorate of the Colissenm Place
Rapt 1st church at New Orleans. His lalvns ns
pastor of that, church were very exacting, but lu*
never spared himself. He soon became tfrbritly
belovo , and when sickness overtook huh Inrt
summer, there was universal regret. When he
was able to travel he went to Brunswick, htipiug
to recover his health, but he gradually grew
worse.death fi. ally ending his useful and noble
career, as announced in the special.
“Dr. Lmdrum’s wife is rhe dtlighter of the
late General Eli Warren, of Houston ct.unty. She
is an earnest Christian woman, widely known
and greatly beloved. Two children live to com
fort her-Mrs. Bussey and Rev. Dr. W. W. Lan
drum, of Richmond, Va.
“A fitting biographer will write the history of
Dr. Landrum's life; but even he will fail to do
justice to the deep piety and heroic self-denial of
this devoted servant of God and humanity.”
A Birthday Bin tier.
Miss Mamie Kivlin gave her nephew, Mr. Ed
Cargill, a birthday dinner last night at 8 o’clock,
yesterday being his twenty-first birthday. A
number of his young friends were preaept iu
honor of the occasion. He entered manhood
amid the congratulations and best wishes of all
present.

Tribute of Respect to J. Edw. Walker.
He in whose memory these lines are written
was born March 4th, 1845, in Burke county, G&
He was the son of General John A. Walker, of
Burke county, Ga. At the early age of 17 years,
in the spring of 1862, when the City Light
Guards, ot Columbus, Ga., entered upon their
second term-of service for the Confederate cause
< which was to be for the war), he had his name
enrolled among them. In the severe experiences
of soldier life the true character of the man is re
vealed perhaps more clearly than under any
other circumstances. Through the crucial tests
of danger, exposure, hardship, suffering and
blood, he bore himself ever with a gentle manli
ness and unflinching faithfulness to duty, re
sponding without murmuring to every call,
whether for the march, the picket, or the battle’s
fearful fire, that endeared him to every member
offhe command. He passed in safety through
the war, looked in sadness upon the flag we
furled and the arms we stacked at Appomattox,
and came home.
Then he engaged in agriculture, and applied
himself to it with a zeal and success rarely
equaled.
On Friday, 24th of September, he had a chill,
and on Sunday following a recurrence of the
chill, which assumed a violent congestive form,
resulting in death at 11 o’clock p m, Sep
tember 26th, 1886.
The passing away so quick and suddenly of
one so usefril and so young (having scarcely
reached life’s zenith) is deeply sad—overwhelm
ingly so to the invalid mother, who was absent
from home, and during the illness, which was so
brief, missed the sacr< d privilege of ministering
to the dearly loved son who had ever been duti
ful, loving, and frill of self-sacrifice toward her.
But he lias goue! The measure of his earthly
life is finished. While the mother and dear
ones will cherish his memory with fondest
affeetion. his friends, and especially his army
comrades (who are becoming few in the lapse of
years), will remember him with the utmost teu-
derness and regard.
“Rest, soldier, rest;
Thy warfare done, life’s battle o’er;
And may thy sleep be sweet.”
