The City Yesterday.
There were numerous showers on yes¬
terday, light ones m the morning and
heavier ones in the evening. No Mayor’s
Court, and no excitement of any kind, al¬
though quite a large number of people
came iu on the stockholder’s excursion
train on the North and South Railroad.
Letter from Athens.
Attention is called to an interesting let¬
ter, which appears on the editorial page,
from our special correspondent at Athens,
giving a report of the first day’s session of
the Agricultural Convention. In addition
to Messrs Allen Redd and Fountain, of
this city, he reports Col. J. B. Gorman, of
Talbot, and Col. J. H. Mobley, of Harris,
as being present. The attendance of dis¬
tinguished men from all parts of the
State, is unusually large.
City Light Guards.
This military organization holds an im¬
portant meeting to-night at the Hail of
No. 5, which all the members are earnest¬
ly requested to attend, as matters of im¬
portance are to be acted upon. Whatev¬
er is done to perfect our volunteer compa¬
nies, must be done quickly, as the busi¬
ness will soon be opened in good earnest,
and the young men will have but little
time to devote to drills and meetings. It
is hoped, therefore, that all will turn OU
to-night and help the Light Guards to
put themselves in marching order at
once.
A Ridiculous Mistake.
We cannot understand how the impres¬
sion got abroad that editors, especially of
the local species, are a crabbed, unaccom¬
modating class of men. A visit to our
sanctum at almost any hour of the day
will prove the falsity of this charge. Our
time, our exchanges, our chairs, our at¬
tention and our patience are alike con¬
stantly being made use of by regular and
transient visitors, not one of whom ever
heard us complain. With a lamblike pa¬
tience, unknown even in the days of Job
—who was not a job printer—we grace¬
fully submit to our daily martyrdom, hav¬
ing the full aussrance that it will be dif¬
ferent in the Great Hereafter, “where the
wicked cease from troubling, and the
weary are at rest. ”
Columbus Guards’ Pic-Nic.
A mere glance at the names of the gen¬
tlemen who aiwiounce this “Grand Basket
Pic-Nic and Target Practice,” to be given
at Mulberry Grove, on the North and
South Railroad, on Friday, August 22d, is
enough to satisfy any body that it will be
a first-class affair in every respect. No
effort will lie spared by them in their offi¬
cial capacity, or by the members of the
company, to make all their guests pass the
day pleasantly. A brass and string band
will furnish music, a commodious platform
will offer ample opportunity for dancing,
while free lemonade will keep everybody
cool and in good humor. It will undoubt¬
edly be the finest affair of the season.
Two trains will be run, for the greater
convenience of all classes, and tickets for
the round trip will be only seventy-five
cents. Let there be a grand rally of
everybody and their children. A day of
recreation will be beneficial to the hard¬
working ean’t-get-aways of our city.

MEETING OE S TO € h H OL1) EM S.
Resignation of President McDougald—
Election of Directors—The Rome Di¬
vision to be Leased—Election of Capt.
T. E. Blanchard as President.
The Annual Meeting of the Stockhol¬
ders of the North and South Railroad was
held at the office of the Company, in
this city, yesterday afternoon at 3 o’clock.
A large delegation was present from
PIarris county 7 , and LaGrange, Rome and
Columbus were properly represented. H.
C. Kimbrough, Esq., of Harris county,
was chosen Chairman, and Wm. Redd,
Jr., made Secretary of the meeting.
On motion of Aid. T. E. Blanchard, a
committee of three, consisting of Messrs.
Mabry, Hudson and Redd, was appointed
by the Chair to examine proxies and re¬
port on the same. The committee at¬
tended to this duty, and subsequently
reported that 3,818 shares of stock were
present by proxies. The call of stock
showed that over 38,000 shares were rep¬
resented in the meeting, including the
stock of Columbus, Rome and LaGrange.
It being evident that a majority of the
stock was present, a request was made
for reports from officers of the Company.
REPORT OF PRESIDENT m’dGUGALD.
Office North and South Railroad, >
Columbus, August 14, 1873. j
To the Stockholders :
Gentlemen—I have the pleasure to
submit the following as iny annual re¬
port ;
Owing to the full report made before
the meeting of the Stockholders called
by me on the 2d day of July, there now
remains but little for me to say. This
report was no doubt amply sufficient to
show that although the Company had
labored under many difficulties and dis¬
couragements during the past year, it had
still been attended by a success exceed¬
ing our most sanguine expectations.
With 20 miles completed and equipped
at this end, and all except 4 miles graded
between LaGrange and the present ter¬
minus of the road, and 3 miles above
LaGrange and 1G miles south of Rome,
we find the road in such condition as to
admit of being speedily pushed forward
to LaGrange on this end, and probably to
Cedar Town on the other, should our
enterprise meet with the encouragement
it deserves, and which I doubt not it will
receive.
Owing to the difficulties in realizing
the cash on our subscriptions, and the
consequent necessity of building the
road almost entirely 7 upon a credit basis,
it has cost much more than would
otherwise have been the case. I
would call especial attention to
this fact, that counties through which
the road is to pass, may be induced to
come up and advance handsomely on
their subscriptions, and thereby secure
the most economical completion of this
line, which is to afford them a cheap and
easy mode of transportation, and put
them in close communication with the
different markets.
The endorsed bonds have all been paid
over to the contractors and the parties
who furnished iron, fish-plates, spikes,
etc. Capt. W. D. Ohipiey is now in New
York, and has been for some time, endea¬
voring to close negotiations for addition¬
al iron and another engine, which nego¬
tiations were opened by Capt. T. E.
Blanchard and myself in March last, and
would have been consummated before
this but for the delay in obtaining State
endorsement.
I have had no official information from
Rome since our meeting iu July, and
hope that everything is satisfactory.—
Capt. Scott,.who represented her stock,
expressed himself well pleased with the
progress of the road, and thought the
statements and explanations made at that
meeting were fair and open, and felt as¬
sured that the company had done the
best it could under the circumstances.
The proposition of Messrs. W. C. Cherry
& Co. to lease the Rome division will be
considered by you at this meeting, and I
hope you will be able to decide upon some
plan of action that will insure an early
completion of that end of the road on to
Cedar Town, or to a point where it will
meet the work at this end, thus giving us
an unbroken line of communication with
our beantiful and enterprising sister city.
For the financial condition of the com¬
pany and the operating expenses of the
road, Ac., I refer you to the report of the
Treasurer.
The Engineer Corps have just com¬
pleted a survey of the Talbotton Branch
road, under Chief Engineer Frank Harris,
to whose report I refer you for lull par¬
ticulars in regard to their operations.
As before stated, my official connection
with this road ceases with this meeting.
Reasons of a private character have in¬
duced me to desire this. I also herewith
present letters of resignation from two of
our ablest andmost active Directors, Capt.
A. Griffith and Col. John T. Burns. A
change in their private business arrange¬
ments has made it necessary for them to
take this step, and to decline becoming
candidates for re-election. I regret that
the road should lose such reliable ser¬
vices, ind I may only hope that other
gentlemen equally energetic and public
spirited may be selected to fill then
places.
In taking my official leave of you, gen¬
tlemen, I trust it will not be deemed in¬
appropriate for me to assure you that I
am still impressed with the importance of
the North and South Railroad to the min¬
eral and agricultural interests of the
country, and of my abiding faith in its
final completion. I shall, therefore, con¬
tinue to feel, as I have felt from its iucip
ieucy, a very deep interest in your enter¬
prise.
During my administration I have en¬
deavored, under discouragements of no
ordinary character, to do my duty, with¬
out regard to personal advantages. As
some evidence of this, if I may be par¬
doned the allusion, I have not enforced
the payment of a dollar of my salary, but
have advanced money from my own purse
to meet expenses incurred in the actual
service of the road; and for the purpose
of securing money, iron and other mate¬
rials which could not be purchased on the
credit of the company, I assumed personal
liabilities to an amount which, if I had
been compelled to meet them, would have
involved me in pecuniary ruin. I men¬
tion these facts, gentlemen, I trust, in no
spirit of egotism, but as an evidence that
my whole heart has been, as it ever will
be, with you in your noble enterprise.
To the officers and employees, allow me
to return thanks for the excellent manner
in which they have done their duty, and
for courtesies extended to me in my offi¬
cial capacity. respectfully submitted,
Very McDougald, Pres’t.
\V. A.
REPORT OF TREASURER CHIPLEY.
New Y'ork, August 7th, 1873.
IF. A. McDougald, President:
Sib—A s you are well aware, my work
here is of such a character as requires time
to manage it properly. I have
the utmost diligence, but iu addition
difficulties incident to such negotiation,
as I have in hand. I have encountered
usual ones bearing directly upon this en
terprise. When built self-sustaining, to LaGrange
Company will own a
ing road, which in time will complete
self over the best unoccupied line in
South. But until then the
transactions are necessarily based
Georgia credit, which interested
here are bearing down terribly.
I have also had great trouble
from the vexatious interruptions of pre
vious negotiations, which grow out of the
unadvoidable delay tn receiving the State
endorsement, I upon the first section But
culties am glad to assure you that these diffi
have not proveu uusurmouutable.
I have purchased and shipped additional
stock required In regard to iron, spikes
am fastening, I am confident of getting
more.
To the Stockholders I have nothing now
to report iu my department, since their
late meeting on 3rd ult. You may congratu¬
the Company upon the prospect of
seeing its trains at LaGrange before the
end of the next fiscal year.
W. D. ClHPLEY,
Sec’y and Treas. and Act'g Supt.
On motion of Judge Cox, of LaGrange,
a vote of thanks was unanimously ten
deredPresideut. McDougald, who was char¬
acterized as a good officer and an efficient
worker, with the best wishes of the stock¬
holders for his future welfare in life. An
amendment was subsequently offered by 7
the mover of the original resolution that
Directors Griffith and Burns be included
iu the vote of thanks, which was also
unanimously adopted.
Alderman JohnMehaffey, iu response to
a motion by Col S. B. Cleghoru that the
meeting go into an election for a Board
of Directors, presented the names of
Peter Freer, W. A. McDongadl, W.D. Chip
ley, T. E. Blanchard and C. C. McGehee,
of Columbus; F. A. Frost, of LaGrange,
and Terrance McGuire, of Rome. The
Chair appointed Messrs. Cox, Barden and
Mosely as tellers, who reported the elec¬
tion of tiles© gentlemen by a vote aver¬
aging about 38,000 shares.
A.motion was uuanimously adopted, that
the Board of Directors be empowered to
fill all vacancies which may occur in their
body during the term for which they are
elected. On motion of R. T. Hargrove,
Esq., of Rome, they were also authorized
and empowered to lease the Rome division
of the Road, which extends from Rome to
Cedar Town, if in their judgment such a
course would be promotive of the best in¬
terests of the company.
Judge W. I. Hudson, of Harris county,
endeavored to secure a place in the Board
of Directors for a gentleman from his
county, but the stockholders overruled
his motion. He subsequently presented
to the meeting a resolution requesting the
Board to concentrate in one person the
duties of President and Superintendent,
ami in a subordinate official those of Sec¬
retary, Treasurer and Agent, as a means
of reducing the expenses of the company.
After considerable animated discussion,
which developed great opposition to the
resolution, J udge Hudson withdrew it
from the meeting. Alderman Blanchard
assured the stockholders that the strictest
system of economy would be adopted and
carried into operation by the new Board.
Among the prominent stockholders
present we noticed Mayor Yancey, Judge
Oox and ex-Mayor Jarboe: of LaGrange,
R. T. Hargrove, Esq., of Rome, Major
Aloseley of Heard county, and Hon. B. H.
Crawford of Muscogee. The meeting was
large and harmonious, and everybody ex¬
pressed full confidence in the ultimate
success of the enterprise, and seemed per¬
fectly satisfied with the result of the elec¬
tion. The stockholders from Harris
county would no doubt have been better
pleased with a representative from their
own section in the Board of Directors,
but they gracefully yielded to the ex¬
pressed choice of the majority for a gen¬
tleman from this city.
At a meeting of the Board of Directors,
held alter the adjournment, Alderman X.
E. Blanchard was elected President of the
Company, Capt. W. D. Chipley Superin¬
tendent, and Win. Redd, Jr,, Secretary
and Treasurer. Supt. Chipley has already
proved himself a most efficient worker
in this enterprise, and his promotion to
the important, position of second officer
of the Road, is not only a well-deserved
compliment to his past fidelity, but opens
up before him a better opportunity to pro¬
mote tne completion of the line at the
earliest day possible. Capt. Blanchard is
a merchant of high character, a popular
municipal officer, and a director of the
Savannah and Memphis Railroad. His
incorruptible integrity, wide-spread popu¬
larity, and experience iu railroad matters,
will enable him to give a new impetus to
the efforts now being made to complete
the Norm and South Railroad without
delay.

Sale of Tame Animals. — Two weeks
ago there were seized on the vessels Vic¬
tor and Lelia M. Long a tapir, two musk
deer, and sixteen monkeys, for the first
of which a free permit was alleged to
have been fraudulently obtained, while
the others were smuggled ashore. The
lot was disposed of at auction by John H.
Draper yesterday. The tapir, an animal
of large size and rather phlegmatic tem¬
perament, brought $300, and was bought
by Louis Ruhe. The two musk-deer,
animals of somewhat less bulk, but much
more grace, were sold to Joseph Stiner
at $8 each. Of the monkeys one was
missing, which died early in the day.
The remaining fifteen went for $8 75
each to Mr. Ruhe. The two latter lots
are China importation; the tapir is a South
American.— N. Y. World, '.id.

When the stomach rebels against food and
obstinately refuses to digest sufficient aliment
to keep tbe body well nourished, it can only he
compelled to resume its n itural duties by a
wholesome tonic. The powerful alkaloids so
often administered lor this purpose are not
wholesome. They are, for the most part, dead¬
ly poisons, and even when taken in very
small qu mtities, re-act violently upon tlie
n rvoussystem. Notso Hosteiter’s Stomach Bit¬
ters. This salutary combination of vegetable
juices, embracing the finest invigorants and al¬
teratives which the botanical kingdom affords,
operates mildly, steadily, and beneficially up
on the digestive, secretive and discharging or¬
gans. In dyspepsia, billiousaffections, nervous
complaints, p-riodic fevers, chronic constipa¬
tion, bodily weakness, mental depression, lan
guor, sleeplessness, and the various disabilities,
incident to old age and premature decay, its
effects are so wonderful that to be comprehend¬
ed they must be witnessed or experienced.
