They were employed on the plantation of
Mr. J. C. Cook, of this city.
Our Deputy Grand Master.
A justly deserved compliment was paid
to one of the oldest and most faithful
members of Muscogee Lodge, of Colum¬
bus, by the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows,
at their recent session in Atlanta, in the
appointment of Mr. J. A. Bradford, of
this city, as Deputy Grand Master of this
District.
Our Report from Athens.
Don't fail to read the interesting letter
of our special correspondent, “Agricola,”
who gives the best and most comprehen¬
sive report of the State Agricultural Con¬
vention yet published. It shows that
the time was well occupied by the dele¬
gates in the discussion of practical ques¬
tions of great importance.
Biver News.
The New Jackson arrived about mid¬
night on Thursday, and leaves this morn¬
ing at 8 o’clock, for Bainbridge and Apa¬
lachicola. She brought up several bales
of new cotton, the first of which went to
Messrs. J. L. Dunham &■ Co., and was
sold by them at private sale for 18 cents
per pound. It came from Wm. Ward &
Co., Gordon, Ala., and was classed Liver¬
pool Low Middling.
Columbus Guards.
This stirring military company was out
on parade last night, for their usual drill,
but with rather thiu ranks. Capt. Shep¬
herd was at his post, and it is very evi¬
dent that he proposes to do all that he
can to enable the Guards to make a suc¬
cessful contest for the prize offered at the
State Fair, which is to be given to the
best drilled company ou the fair grounds.
From Griffin.
The latest reports from Rev. Dr. De
Votie speak of great improvement in his
health. He is now in the neighborhood
of Dalton, Ga., enjoying the flue air of
that section of the State. Capt. Maug¬
ham continues to fail, and it is thought
that he cannot live more than twenty-four
hours longer, this being his second attack
during the past few weeks.
New Temperance Organization.
We are requested to state that a meet¬
ing will be held at Wesley Chapel, ou to
morrow afternoon, at 3y o’clock, and all
persons who feel willing to assist in or¬
ganizing a Council of the Friends of Tem
perance, are reqnested to be present.
Ladies are also invited to attend, as good
speakers are expected to address the
meeting.
A Tender of Thanks.
We feel that our thanks are due such of
our exchanges as are in the habit of copy¬
ing our articles without giving the Sun
due credit for them. This throws an air
of originality about them; and of course,
under the impression that they were writ¬
ten by the editors of those papers, their
readers accord greater weight to our poor
opinions. Hence this tender of thanks.
An Alderman Abroad.
Alderman L. G? Scheussler, of this city,
has been passing a few days in Atlanta;
and instead of spending his time at the
State House, Insane Asylum or City Hall,
as might have been expected of a high
city official, he seems to have taken up
with the society of newspaper men. As a
natural result of this, the local of the
Herald announces that his “old friend
Lewis Scheussler, of Columbus, is there,
attending the Grand Lodge of Odd Fel
lows. In the ‘long ago’ Lewis aud ‘us’
" ere ever understood partners in the uni¬
versal game of ‘knucks’ with which Ala¬
bama abounded.in those days.”
Artillery Battalion.
Never before in the History of the vol¬
unteer organizations of this city, dating
back to a very early day, has there been
such enthusiasm manifested in military
circles, as Major J. Carter Cook has
aroused by his zealous efforts to form in
this city an Artillery Battalion, which it is
proposed to call the Muscogee Flying Ar¬
tillery. We hear it stated that nearly tive
hundred citizens have expressed their
purpose to attend the called meeting to
and no doubt some two hundred or
fihtre will become active or honorary mem¬
bers of the company.
Paragraphic Jottings.
! A brother editor, in a sharp and timely
protest against the wearing of lotv-neck
dresses, truthfully declares that no lady
ever dresses low from a high motive.
An exchange states that too many Far
mers Granges are officered by lawyers and
P olit ieians, and suggests that the officials
should be bona fide farmers. Correct.
Magic City” is the latest “goak” per
perpetrated by the “Duke of Birming¬
ham” upon the town recently known as
the “Civilized World.”
There is a tvatclmiaker in Macon
named Earnest Peschke, who advertises
‘mean time.” A Yankee, from away
down East, would call it “pesky mean
time.”
The gay and festive Gorman, at last ac¬
counts, was rusticating at Union Point,
where there are several little dears. That
is the point he ought to have reached
twenty years ago.
In referring to the saying of the an¬
cients, that “the gods help those that
help themselves,” a recent writer express¬
es the belief that this pithy apothegm has
lost none of its force by the lapse of two
thousand years, which is a very likely
supposition.
The Rev. E. Carswell, Jr., pastor of the
Baptist Church at Tuskegee, has resigned
that position to finish his theological
studies. We commend his noble example
to a class of preachers who sadly need
finishing off in their upper stories, where
theological knowledge is supposed to
reside.
Mrs. Harriet L. Stibbs, of Savannah,
has written a story entitled “A Marble
Heart and Nerves of Steel.” It is evi¬
dent that she is a married woman, and
also probable that her story takes its name
from her husband’s peculiarly tender
nature and patient endurance.
The Hon. W. S. Mudd is suggested as
the Democratic candidate for Governor of
Alabama. This is a nomination,made
by some person who has unearthed this
gentleman from the seclusion of privat.;
life, for the purpose of throwing mud
upon the Democratic party. He would
make a better Mayor for Atlanta, where
he would be in perfect harmouy with the
elemeuts that compose her streets and
sidewalks.
Things About Town.
T. T. Edmunds has opened a coffin
wareroom at his furniture store on Broad
street.
Mayor Mellhenny has gone to Milledg
ville, an 1 Alderman C. 0. McGehee was
acting Mayor on Wednesday.
Orders on Russell couuty, Alabama,
are being offered for sale at a discount
of fifty per cent. This ought not to be.
The Sumter Republican, of Americus,
notices the return to that place of Mrs.
Rutherford aud her daughter, from a visit
to Columbus.
Alderman L. G. Schuessler, of this
city, has been elected Grand Guardian of
the Lodge of Odd Fellows iu this State.
A good selection.
Yesterday was a quiet, sultry day, no
Mayor’s Court, no excitement of any
kind, and but little business. The only
activity that we noticed, was on the part
of the musquitoos in our senctun, who are
always lively on dull days.
Change of Name.
So long as Col. McDougald’s mare,
Lady Emma, remained here, and had only
a local reputation, it made but little dif¬
ference what name she was know n by in
Southern sporting circles. But when she
became the property of Mr. Jack Cham¬
bers, and was by him put upon the turf
at the North, it was found that her name
conflicted with that of a chestnut mare
owned by Mr. S. Feeks, whose prior
claim to the appellation compelled Mr.
Chambers to re-christen his mare as
“Mosley.” The speed of the two mares
is about equal, as we notice that Feeks’
Lady Emma recently trotted three out
mile heats at Deerfoot Park, near Brook¬
lyn, L. I., in 2:41—2:37 39. Col. Me
Dougald, however, suggests that all our
reports of the mare “Mosley” are incor¬
rect, so far as we have identified her with
Lady Emma. But his suggestions are
based upon no reliable information in re¬
gard to the matter.
The Bight Thing in the Kiglit Place.
Dr. J. C. Cook, who has been so active
and efficient in getting up an artillery
company, found, on repairing to his office
yesterday morning, a ‘sword hung at the
door, with a note attached, stating that it
had been through three wars, and the
donors hoped that he would accept and
wear it when on duty. It is evidently of
good metal, and has seen service. The
Doctor desires us to return thanks to the
unknown donors, aud to assure them of
his appreciation of the gift. He certainly
deserves applause for his zealous and suc¬
cessful efforts to get up the company, and
it is certain that no one, in an emergency
calling for its use, would more gallautly
wield a sword for his country.
First Bale Georgia Cotton.
Messrs. Flournoy, McGehee & Co., Al¬
ston Warehouse, received on yesterday,
the first bale of Georgia cotton brought
to this market the present season, of the
new crop. It was raised by Messrs. Dick¬
erson & McElveen, Miller county, aud
should have reached this city on Monday
last, but the drayman failed to get it to
the landing in time for the boat, It was
classed good ordinary, and was sold to
G. F. Taliaferro at 17J cents. They also
received by same boat, the first bale from
Florida, shipped from Hayward’s Land¬
ing, raised by P. G. Alford, classed good
ordinary, and sold to same party at same
price.
Pensions for Soldiers’ Widows.
Some few' of our citizens are entitled to
the benefit of an act of Congress, passed
February, 1871, giving a pension to sol
diers of the war of 1812, and their wid
ows if they were married previous to 17th
of February, 1813. The pension is $8 a
month, and dates from the passage of the
act. Alex. C. Morton, Esq., who adver¬
tises to attend to such claims, showed us
yesterday a pension certificate just re¬
ceived. With this certificate the party re
ceived blank receipts to be filled up, en¬
titling the widow to *221 33 back pay to
the 4th June, 1874. A comfortable little
sum for an old and poor widow’.
A Lexington, Kv., correspondent of tbe
Cincinnati Enquirer, says the Trustees of
the Cincinnati Southern Railroad are at
last about to take a decided step looking
to the location of the road, From a prt
vate and trustworthy source it is learned
that they will make application to the
Citv Council this week for the Enquirer right of
way ' through that city. The
correspondent 18 confident it will be
granted.
Returned from Athens.
Mayor A. M. Allen and Captain C. A.
Redd, of this city, returned from Athens
on yesterday morning, both highly pleased
with what they saw and heard in the Con¬
vention to which they were delegates.
Mujor Allen informs us that the time
was most profitably employed in the dis¬
cussion of questions of vital importance
to the planters of the State, and much
good is sure to result from this conference
of men of practical experience in and
scientific knowledge of farming in all its
varied branches, as carried on South.
From all sections the reports were fa¬
vorable as to crops, especially from
Brooks, Lowndes and Thomas counties,
and from sections where there are clay
or stiff lands. On sandy belts the cotton
is late and small, with but little fruit as
yet, although it is doing well. From Ba¬
ker and Dougherty counties the reports
were not as favorable. These reports
were from individuals, and assumed no
official form, yet they can be considered
as reliable.
Both Major Allen and Capt. Redd are
profuse in their praises of the good peo¬
ple of Athens, especially the ladies, to
whom the Convention was indebted for a
most elegant and sumptuous banquet, at
which all enjoyed a never to be forgotten
season of rare social pleasure. That the
people of good old Athens are indeed
hospitable, our own experience during
Commencement week fully proved, for
we could not have been treated better
than we were by the excellent proprietor
of the Newton House aud the citizens
generally. During the Convention they
opened wide their hospitable doors and
took the delegates iu and cared for them
in the very best manner. “Agricola,”
however, hunted up our old quarters at
the Newton House, where he reports that
he fared like a prince, under the kind
treatment of Mr. A. D. Oiinard, the no¬
ble hearted proprietor.

and pleasant.
ADJOURN SINE DIE.
At a late hour yesterday evening the
Grand Lodge adjourned sine die.— At¬
lanta Constitution, loth.
The South at Vienna. —But while
dwelling upon the South we noted the ad¬
miration and interest which attended the
imperial examination of the trophy of
cotton which stands at the entrance of
the west gate. Cotton in all forms,
gracefully built up and festooned and
twined into cunning shapes, forms this
trophy—cotton from Mobile, New Or¬
leans, St. Louis, Lee couuty, Mississippi;
Linmeus, Missouri, and Memphis; ”ota- l
bly a cotton plant in full bloom,
furnished by a negro of Charleston, who
had been a slave, but wbo brought hither
this tree as a free man to deck the trophy
which awaits an Emperor. Here also we
noted silk cocoons aud expressions of
moss and hemp and twine aud works from
the South adding to the trophy, and show
ing that war, however it may have chan
nelled and furrowed the fair fields of
these noble Southern States, did not
deaden the life that dwelt in their soil nor
the energy and genius of the men who
cultivate their acres. All this profound
ly interested Francis Joseph, who stood
for some time examining the trophy—the
banner, so it seemed, proclaimed king—a king the
world that cotton was again tributes aud
no less because these, her
harvests and tokens of strength, are the
work of freemen and not of slaves. Con¬
sidering all things, the South should he
proud of her share in this American de¬
partment. If all States had done as well
as Louisiana and Missouri many American
cheeks would not have blushed, as in
following the Emperor to-day they saw
that America had done and knew how
much more grandly and proudly she could
do .—-Cor. N. Y Herald.

THE PAVAL ALLOCUTION.
Allocution of the Most Holy Father Pope
Pius IX., Delivered to the Cardinals of
the Holy Roman Church In the Hall of
the Vatican, on July 35, 1873.
The Freeman’s Journal of this week
publishes the following important docu¬
ment from the Vatieau :
Venerable Brethren —What we fore¬
told w hen we addressed you at the close
of the past year, to-wit, that we might
have to speak again of vexations of the
Church daily increasing; the work of
iniquity, then proposed, having now been
consummated, our office calls us to de¬
clare, iu whose ears seems to sound that
voice of oue saying:-—-Cry!
So soon as we learned that an enact¬
ment was to be proposed to the Legisla¬
tive Assembly, which, iu this propitious
city, as well as in the rest of Italy, was to
suppress religious houses aud to put up
ecclesiastical property to be sold; de¬
nouncing the impious crime, we pro¬
scribed any and every project of au en¬
actment of such kind. We declared null
every acquisition of property thus robbed,
and we repeated the censures that were
incurred, ipso facio, by the authors aud
by the promoters of enactments, of such
sort. Not only by the Church has this
enactment been branded as antagonistic
to divine and ecclesiatical law, but by the
lights of public legal science, as subver¬
sive of all natural aud human justice, aud
so, of its own nature, void aud null. But
we see it accepted to-day by the votes of
the Legislative Assembly and of the Sen¬
ate, and, finally, sanctioned by royal au¬
thority.
We judge it best, venerable brethren,
to refrain from repeating all that we have
so often largely set forth, hoping to deter
these wicked rulers from their attempt in
1 regard to the sacrilege, the injuries malice, of
end and the most grave this
enactment. But we are forced by the
duty of vindicating the rights of the
Church, by the solicitude of warning the
careless, and by very charity for the
guilty, to raise our voice and declare to
all those who have not hesitated to pro¬
pose, or to approve, or to sanction this
aforesaid most iniquitous enactment: and
to all commissioners, promoters, coun¬
sellors, adhe.euts, executors or pur¬
chasers of ecclesiastical property, that
whatever they have done, or may do, is
to no valuable account, but void aud null.
Aud not but iu the act
of any participation whatever, each
all of them, stricken with the major ex
communication, aud with yet other eccle¬
siastical pains aud penalties, according to
the sacred canons, apostolical constitu¬
tions and decrees inflicted by general
councils, aud especially by fallen the Council of
Trent, and that they have into the
most terrible vengeance of God aud are
walking iu plain peril of eternal damna¬
tion.
Meanwhile, venerable brethren, while
necessary aids to our sovereign ministry
are withdrawn more aud more, while
wrongs are heaped on wrongs towards per¬
sons and things sacred, while here and
abroad the persecutors of the Church
seem to be concerting their plots aud join¬
ing their forces for the utter smothering
of the exercise of ecclesiastical jurisdic¬
tion ; and to give a special instance, per¬
haps to interfere with the free election of
him who is to sit as the Vicar of Christ,
in this chair of Peter, what is left to us
except that we should, with all earnestness
take refuge in Him, who is rich in Mercy,
aud deserts never his servants in the time
of their trouble V Aud, verily, the Power
of Divine Providence is shown clearly in
the perfect union of all the bishops with
this Holy See, in their noble steadfastness
against wicked enactments and the usur¬
pation of sacred rights, in the unbounded
devotion of the whole Catholic household
to this centre of unity, in that charity life-giving
spirit with which faith aud are
bursting forth everywhere in works wor¬
thy of the best days of the Church.
Let us, then, strive to make ready the
desired season of mercy. Let us alto¬
gether throughout the world, try to do a
pious violence to our God. Let allprelate.s
rouse their parish priests to this. Let all
parish priests stir up the people of then
several flocks. Let us, all aud together,
prostrate and bowed down before our
altars, cry out, Gome, O Lord, Come f
Delay not! Spare Thy people, loosen
the burdens of Thy flock Behold out
desolation ! It is not pleading justifica¬
tions for ourselves that we pour out our
prayers before Thy face, but for the mul¬
titude of Thy tender mercies! Stir up
Thy power, aud come; show Thy face aud
we shall be saved! And, although we
may be conscious of u«r unworthiness, let
us not fear to draw nigh confidently to
the Throne of Grace. Let us seek that
throne by the intercession of all who now
surround it. Especially Apostles; let let us seek it,
through the Holy us seek
it through the most chaste Spouse of the
Mother of God (St. Joseph) ; let us seek
it, above all, through the Virgin Immacu¬
late, whose intercessions with Her Son
have the relation, in a certain way, of
commands.
But, as a preparation for this, let us
strive earnestly to dense our conscien :e
from dead works. For it is “on those
that are just the Lord sets His eyes: and it
it is to their prayers that His ears are
open. this be accomplished
That may more
oer tamly, and more fully, we grant, by
llr apogtolic authority, to all the faithful
wtlo wl p have duly confessed and corn
r turned, and will have prayed for the ne
ceS sities of the Church in these matters,
a plenary indulgence, to be once gained,
on whatever day the ordinary in each di¬
ocese shall have appointed; which indul
yenee ^ay be applied for the souls of the
faithful departed. venerable brethren, though
Therefore, of
ooun tless and very heavy storms perse
cutlonH a nd troubles rage, let us not lose
(. oura g e on that account. For we are
trusting in Him who never suffers those
t hat hope in God, which cannot be for
—“I will deliver him, because he
has hoped in Me.”
THE POPE AND CARDINALS ON JULY 25.
The Freeman's Journal accompanies
the above with the folio win;;:
There was a meeting of the i! >'; Father
