On this point the woman herself testified that
us fur back as she could remember she was living
with negroes; that she had never seen either of
her parents, but that her mother was a white
woman, and she had been told that her father
was a brighl mulatto or part Indian.
No other positive testimony was introduced.
The state asked the court to charge the jury
that if they believed the woman’s testimony
t 1 at then they must find the prisoner guilty, i nd
argued in support ofthe request that the wofnan
having hern shown to be of white maternity,
that by legal presumption site herself was white
until the contrary was shown, or until she was
shown to be of negro paternity; that thi» legal
presumption put the burden of proof upon the
defendant, which burden was not lifted by her
vague and hearsay testimony ns to the mixed
blood of her father. The court charged as re-
I quested.
1 The defense insisted that testimony about one’s
| own nativity, such usage, place of birth, paren-
, tage, etc., was, in the absence of better testimony,
| a matter of common report, and as the woman
j had testified that she had been told that her
' fither was of mixed blood or part Indian, that
| her testimony on that point should have its due
weight, and asked the court to charge that,
' looking at the whole testimony, if the jury had a
' reasonable doubt as to whether the woman was
of white or mixed blood, that then they must
acquit.
The court again charged as requested.
It cropped out incidentally in the discussion
that although it is unlaw Ad for whites and ne
groes to intermarry, yet one of aboriginal blood
may marry either white or black according to his
own supreme election and not be subject to any
legal penalty. So that, it*one is arraigned on a
charge of miscegenation, they hove only to in

thereby escape the clutches of the law. There

The Btivannali News, which reached us yester
day, contained the following interesting item:
“The reported purchase of the East Georgia
and Florida railroad by the Bavannah, Florida
and Western caused considerable gossip in rail
way circles yesterday. Nearly every one believed
the r< port, although it was not officially an-
iinoed. By buying the new road the Plant
system kills one bird and cripples another with
j tho same stone, so to speak. The crippled otic

p itch In the Morning News about the purchase,
but he declined to say whether it was true or

Patti Rosa played •’Zip” to an unusually large
house last night. The c..«t was good and the
play thrilling. Patti is a favorite everywhere,
and Columbus was no ex eptiou. Site captured
the audience at the start and held them to the
•nd. The play was well mounted, and the scene
in which “Zip” swings across the chasm to light
the lighthouse lamp and save the ship Calcutta,
was greeted with deafeniug applause. Patti’s
songs with banjo accompaniment are unique and
delightful, and she was repeatedly encored
“Zip” is far above the average; or, at least, the
plaudits of the uudieucc last night indicated
that they thought so.
Trouble Annum the SUidinits at Aiihuru.
A gentleman from Opelika who was in the city
yesterday reports that rather a setious difficulty
took place between some of the students at the
A. and M. college at Auburn on Thursday. It
seems that three or four young men, whose
names we were unable to learn, threatened to
whip a young student named Driver. Driver
heard ofthe threat, and accordingly armed him
self. When the young men made the attack
upon him he drew his pis.oi and tired upon them,
tin? bail striking ’cue of them whose name is said
to be Lloyd. The others then retreated, and the
difficulty was nt an end. The young man is not
dangerously wounded. Our informant was
rather reticent, and it was impossible to get dc*
* tails ofthe alYair.
JUrrliic* m Opelika.
ITie elegant residence rl’Mr. J. M. MvNamee,
cashier of the Bank of Opelika, was filled with
relatives and friends Thursday evening, the occa
sion being the marriage of his eldest daughter,
Miss Rosa, to Dr. D. B. Williams, of Opelika.
This event ends an engagement of four years.
The bride is an accomplished young woman. v*ns
elegantly and costly attired and never looked
lovelier than on this occasion, when, leaning
upon the arm of her bsthrothed, she assumed
the vows of marriage.
Dr. Williams is a young man of sterling quali
ties and is making for himself an enviable repu
tation in his chosen prof ission.
The ceremony was pe. formed at 8:30 o’clock by
Rev J. 8. Rencher. Thu attendants were Mr. D.
A. Greene, of Birnri.ghatn, and Miss Mamie
McN.imoe. of Auburn; Mr. W. W. Williams, of

Wayeross. It htv* bjeti reported that the 9:
nah, Florida and Western intended to double-
track its line from Savannah to Jacksonville ou
account of the heavy traffic. A new line from
Jesup to Folk stone would relieve the main track
around by Waycross and would save tlfleen o.
twenty miles of track, besides giving half an
j hour or more quicker schedule.
“No fUivey has yet been made for a direct
route from Jesup to Folkstone, but a corps of
engineers will lie started out short y. It Is more
than liktly that the Savannah, Florira a cl
Western will use tfie East Georgia and Florida
line as far as any work has been done on U.
There r good reason to behevc, too, that ° branch
will bo built over to St. Mur.vs opposite Fornr.n
diiia. That will make the Savannah. Florida and
Western a direct competitor with the Clyde line
at its main port in Florida, and goods shipped
from New York by the Ocean Steamship com
pany to Savannah, and hence by the Savannah,
Florida and Western will retch Fernand ina at
least a day earlier than goods shipped by the
Mallory line. Perishables for the northern
market will have the same advantage in being
shipped to Savannah by rail, ann from heie to
Now York b> r the Ocean Steamship company.
“A short line to conuoot Monticollo with the
Savannah, Florida and Western seems to have
better chances Of being built than ever before.”
A Railroad Consolidation.
A special from Wrightsvilie says: “The liveliest
avd most enthusiastic railtoad mooting t verheld
in Wrightsville took place yesterday, and re-
su.ted in a frill consolidation of the Wrightsville
and Tounille and the Dublin and Wrightsville
railroads. The Central railroad owns a consider
able amount of stock in both of these roads, and
being highly in favor of the consolidation, voted
accordingly, and brought about the above result.
Many of the stockholders in the Wrightaville
and Tcnnille are very much dissatisfied with the
consolidation and are now threatening to insti
tute suit for the recovery of the money they in
vested in this road ”

The storm in Meriwether.
The Meriwether Vindicator has tlic following
in reference to the blow on Wednesday: * •
“About4 o’clock Wednesday afternoon an ex

Greenville, coining from the southwest. In aorafc
instance* storm pits were sought. The unfinish
ed residence of Mr Kftth, on Talbotton street,
was blown from the pillars and badly damaged.
We heard, also, that a new building of Mr. Ben
