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. Death In Opelika. Mrs. L. A. Jones died at her residence in Ope lika at 11:30 o’clock Monday night. The frineral services were held at the Methodist church at 1:80 Tuesday evening. A largo congregation of friends and relatives was present. Revs. T. J. Williamson and J. 8. Rcncher conducted the services. 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 ing hard to bring out a frill vote. The registra tion books will close on Baturday, and those who fell to legister will be disfranchised. Let overy citizen register. 1 Marriage in Harris County. On last Sunday, the 13th instant, Mr. T. J. Me- Curry and Miss Minnie Bartley were married at Balem church, in Harris county, b.v Willy Will- KlMBLINCtft AMONG THE BAIL 10 A DM 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 .

The groom is a sue eesbftil young farmer, the son of Mr. J. A. Mc- Curry, of Hamilton, and the accomplished bride is the daughter of the late Rev. W. T. Bartley. Marriage. Mr. Silas Smith and Miss Martha Burton weic married at the residence of Policeman A. W. 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 Emma 8tewart, of Macon, is the guest of Miss Mamie Peabody. Mr. W. H. Luttrell, of Waverly Hall, is in the city. Mr. R. P. Tollman, of Greenville is in the city. Miss Minnie Sheppard, who has been visiting friends in Macon returned to the city yesterday. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Reieh have returned to the city. Mr. Geo, A. B. Dozier, of Harris county is in the city. Mr.>h G. Dennis, editor of the Hamilton Jour nal, was in the city yesterday. Dr. T. F. Brewster, member of the legislature for Harris county, passed through the city yes terday en route to Atlanta. i t heir supplies, but will have a line market here, j They can also get at our mineral iroducts inucl: j myre advantageously. The Georgia people kno»' | this ftict loo well not to favor the building of the I road. Birmingham will also he greatly bonellt- | ed, as more markets are mude tor its mineru products and more points are opened to feed he 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.” An Army Comrade.
