THICK IN TIIK IIi: \ A. A Young Mini’s Probable Successful Attempt at Sulehle at Under. Parties who came in on the passenger train from Macon yesterday reported that Mr. Irbin Wallace, of Butler, attempted suicide early yes terday mornit g. He applied to a friend and borrowed a pistol, saying that he wai ted to kill a rabbit that was urn’er his store. In a few min utes the report of a pistol was heard, quickly fol lowed by another. Those in. the neighborhood of the store, being startled by the pistol shots, rushed in and found Wallace lying on the floor with two bullet holes in his temple. He was still alive, but talked only in monosyllables. Prompt surgical attention was given him, but at a late hour yesterday evening our latest advices were that he cannot live. Ho is a son of Col. W. 8. Wallace, a prominent lawyer; and has been con ducting a grocery business in Butler. Dissipation is said to have been the cause of the rash act. He is about 30 years old and is unmarried. He has a host of fViends who will regret to learn of this rash step. OLD MAN SANDKItS DEAD. Thu Two Murderers in Jail at Seale. About ten days ago the Enquirer Sun gave an account of a murderous attack upon an old man named Reuben Sanders, who lived near Hatche- chubbee. It will be remembered that unknown part ies entered his house while he was asleep and struck him on the head with a crowbar, crushing his skull. The old man lingered until last Sun day night, when lie died. In the meantime, how ever, Tol and Joe Carden, two white men, upon whom suspicion rested strongly, gave themselves up to the sheriff and were lodged in jail in default of bail. Yesterday a coroner’s inquest was held and the jury found that it was murder, and charged Tol and Joe Carden with the crime. These two men hud been indicted for robbing old man Sanders a few months ago,and it seems that they took this means of obtaining revenge. MORE ABOUT THE CENTRAL. From RUkely to Columbia. Wo find the following railroad item in the Early County News: “Mr. R. T. McDonald, civil engineer for the Central railroad, is engaged this week in survey ing a line from Blakely to Columbia, Ala., for the purpose of ascertaining the probable cost of ex tending the line of the Blakely extension to that point. After this is ascertained it is probable that the railroad authorities will submit a propo sition to the people of Columbia dictating the terms upon which tbev will agree to extend the line, but it is not probable and hardly possible that they will consent to stop the lire at that point, bdt will carry it on to Pollard, Ala., to con nect with the Mobile and Girard road. The appearance of the surveying corps i in Blakely has created considerable j discussion ns to the intentions of the railroad authorities, nnd the unanimous opin l ion of the railroad employes, as well as the citizens of our town, is that if the, road ever I crosses the river it will go to Pollard, If this j is done the Albany and Blakely extension will \ become one of the main lines of the South western railroad, n thing which most of cur people wourd be glad to see come to pass We will endeavor to keep our readers posted ns to the different developments as they may arise in the flu ure. We have no doubt the road will he com pleted some day in the future, and we hope the I time is near, but weare of theopinionourColum- J bia friends will have to plank up the cash pretty j liberally, if they wish the road to cross the Chat- # tahoochee.

Ills Administration Satisfactory to the Stock holders. Death of Mrs. Fannie Frieker. A telegram was received yesterday evening from Richmond. Vn.. stating that Mrs. Fannie Frieker, wife of Mr. James Frieker, died in that city at 3:10 a. m. Her remains will be buried to day in Danville, Va. Mrs, Frieker was a daugh ter of Mr. A. F. Brannon, and WU3 boru and. raised In this city, and was married to Mr. Flicker when he was a c’tizon of this place. She leaves two children, and bus a number of rela tives and friends in Columbus who will learu of her death with feelings of sorrow. In reference to the fight for the presidency of the Central railroad, the Savannah News of Sun day had the following to sav: The stock market quieted down yesterday after the unusual activity of the past week. Central went up a point to 118, but there were hardly any sales. The day’s transactions were less than 509 shares. There is an impression that an effort is baing made by parties desiring to purchase to keep the j stock from going any higher, and to accom- | plish this that the statement h is been given out that enough htul already been bought by General I Alexander's friend*', to insure his election. I The statement telegraphed IV »m \’ew York on Friday that the Green stock, amounting to 7020 ! shares, has not been sold, but that it will be voted | for Gen. Alexander conflicts .vith the statement made o.v Maj. Hartridge tliatit. was si Id outright, and credits Mrs. Green with considerably over a thousand shares more than she owned. THE NEW YORK STOCK. Copt. Raoul’s friends here say that the amount of stock that has been bought by northern par ties has been greatly exaggerated. A month ago it was estimated that 20,000 shares were held in New York and a large portion of this stock is known to be favorable to Capt. Raoul and to the present administration. A large stockholder in the road said that he lias MUSCOGEE HOME (ORNEII, The IIwnI th'*iiinlilo Cliy Property on Hie Mnrlud. DIFered Lor .Sale.

Davis. nov23 dtf • Married in Florida. Dr. Stephen Neal, of Talbot county, and Miss Anna Tooke, of Macon, Fla., were married in the latter place yesterday morning at 9 o’clock groom is a preeminent young physician, and has charge of the convict camps on the Georgia Mid land. The bride form rly lived in this city and is a niece of Mr. J. S. Jones. She is a charming and talented young lady. The many friends of the happy young couple wish for them a bright and prosperous future. They will reach this city to-morrow. lion lo Save Gin Houses. The Troy Messenger says : “ Mr. Frank Kelly of this county saved his gin from burning a few days ago iu the following cheap and novel man ner : “ He keeps two barrels of water, one on each aide of his gin sitting on the floor, and an empty water bucket close by. A few days ago with a lint room half Bill of cotton, while his gin was runniug at full speed, a match flashed in the saws and in an instunt the lint room was in a blaze all over. Mr. Kelly gathered his bucket and poured water into the gin without stopping, and the brush showered it all over the lint room and put out the fire by the time it had singed over the t-op of the cottoii. The lint room is thirteen feet •quare, and what this precaution did for Mr. Kelly it will do for every ginner iu the south uu- der like circumstances.” Personal. Mr. Wilmer Waddell, editor of the Russell Register, is in the city. Judge Weeks, of Talbotton, is in the city. Dr. C. L. Williams, of Seale, was in the city. He has rented u house here and will locate with bis family in Columbus iu a fbw days. The En- qutKEU-SuN will extend them a cordial welcome when they come. Miss Annie Weeks, of Talbotton, is visiting the no do bt whatover that the management of its affairs during the mud four years is satisfactory to nine-tenths of the stockholders, and that no change to desired by them, INCREASE IN MjbINEAS. The business of the road is rapidly increasing, and, but for the expenses • f an extraoi dinary character incurved last year, and which are ex plained in the president’s recent report, it would nave paid a much larger dividend than it did. The developoment of the Carolina lines recently consolidated into the Port Royal and Western Carolina vystem, embracing ever 200 miles o road ; the recent purchase of the Boston and Savannah Steamship lino ; the extension of the Tho Columbus and Western road to Birmingham, ine and its connection there with the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Gulf road, establishing a through line to Memphis, the largest interior cotton market in the south, and Kansas City, forming a connection that will bring to the Central a large part of the business that now goes over other lines, cannot but increase nnd very largely too, the revenues of the road. wealthiest planters, was in the city yesterday. Miss Claudia Lewis, of Seale, is visiting the city, the guest of Miss Ella Marcus. fliss Mattie Stephens, of Cusseta, Ala., return ed home yesterday, after spending a short time in the city. Mr. and Mrs. Michael Macheca.of New Orleans, who have befell on a tour of Europe, returned to the city Sunday night, and will spend a few days here. Judge J. M. Matthews, of Talbotton, is in the city. Miss Jodie Johnson, of Bethel, is visiting Miss Katie Coleman. Mrs. C. H. Cook, of Hamilton, is visiting rela tives iu the city. Miss Minnie Pickett, of Lumpkin, is visiting THE BIRMINGHAM CONNECTION. It is expected that the Birmingham road will bo completed by the middle of September. The connection with Kansas City, the centre of the most important producing region of the west, not only opens to the section a country traversed by the Central’s existing lines, the cheapest channel through which to draw its products, but also affords the shortest mileage route from that section to New York and other eastern cities, t is confidently believed that an improvement in the revenues of the road will follow close upon the completion of this connection. IMPROVING THE ROAD. The relaying of the entire system with steel rails, and t he increase in rolling stock, although at a considerable cost, will effect a saving of over $100,000 in the operating expenses. In five years $5,000,000 of 7 per cent, bonds will become due. Assuming that these bonds can he Rinded at 5 per cent, there will be another saving of $100,- 000, thus decreasing the expenditures, while at the same tiuie the rapid development of the country and the acquirement of new territory canuot fai to bring about a very large increase in business. A daily line of steamers to New York and a semi-weekly line to Boston and Philadelphia are being considered ami will most likely be put on at an early day. CAPTAIN RAOUL IN NEW YORK President Raoul is now in New York in the in terests of the road, and is getting posted as to the situation there. Among the largest holders of Central stock in New York is Mr. Pine, who represents the estate of the late Moses Taylor, and who is a firm friend of Captain Raoul. Mr Pine’s intluene and the stock ho is able to con trol will, in event of a contest, figure very strong ly in the election. Captain Raoul’s friends here tire confident of his re-election by a larger vote r an he received four years ago. At that elec tion 66.(XX) shares were voted, the largest amount of stock t hat has ever been voted at any elect ion since the company was organized. Facts from Fortxoii. Correspondence Enquirer-Sun.
