Judge A. C. Pate, of the Oconee Cir
cuit, who has presided in Chatham Su
perior Court for several days during the
absence of Judge Tompkins, left for
home yesterday afternoon. During his
occupancy of our bench, we learn he has
given unaualified satisfaction to the
members of the bar, and has made nu
merous friends by his dignified, impartial
and able discharge of the duties of the
tribunal. No judicial officer who has
visited our city of late years has made a
more favorable impression than Judge
Pate, and he may be assured of always
receiving a hearty welcome when he comes
to the Forest City.
Mr. Walter LeConte Stevens, the effi

attend the meeting of the Virginia Edu
cational Convention. Mr. Stevens will
probably be absent until October. We
sincerely hope he will enjoy his vacation,
and that his health and strength, which
have been impired by unremitting appli
cation to his arduous duties the past nine
months, may be greatly benefitted by his
recreation, and that he may return to his
host of friends in this city with renewed
vigor.

A Crazy Woman Taken Fonnennion of a
Vacant House—A Lively Scene.
A gentleman of this city who owns a
house on State street, near Houston, a
few days since succeeded in renting it to
a lady. The house has been vacant about
a month, and yesterday morning the lady
applied to the owner for the keys, stating
that she desired to take a servant with her
to clean up the place. The keys were
handed to her and she departed. In a
short while she returned looking very pale
and agitated, and stated that there
was a wild-looking woman in the house,
who denied her admission, abused
her, and claimed the house as her own.
The owner, greatly mystified at this re
port, took the keys and started himself
to investigate the matter, knowing that
no one had any right to the occupation
of the premises. Upon entering the place
he was confronted by an Irish woman of
muscular frame, who emerged from one of
the rooms, and at once opened upon him
a tirade of abuse, ordering him from the
place, and threatening him with dire ven
geance. She finally became so violent in
her demeanor that the owner advanced
towards her, when she rapidly re
treated into the room and locked
the door. Finding it impossible to
gain admittance to the room, the
owner sought the services of a policeman,
who succeeded in getting the door open,
when he discovered that the occupant
was a demented woman by the name of
Ryan. After considerable parleying and
a few threats the woman was induced to
leave the place, to avoid arrest and incar
ceration at a resort with the attractions of
which she was familiar. In the mean
time, however, the woman was rather
rambunctious, and made the situation
very lively. In the room she had oc
cupied were found hung on the walls a
number of dresses, while the floor was
adorned with kettles, dishes, etc.,
and the scraps and slops of numerous
meals. The eight, from the description
given, us, was far from pleasing. The
owner is now in possession of the house,
and the lessee will occupy the same with
out delay, being relieved of further appre
hension concerning the demented imagin
ary owner.
This crazy woman has been wandering
about the streets for months, soliciting
charity, and it is only at times 6he be
comes violent. It would be well if some
provision could be made for her by the
county authorities, as she is undoubtedly
a fit subject for protection.
A Savannah Rifle Team.
We understand that a movement is on
foot to organize a rifle team in this city,
with the view of favoring the public with
an exhibition of skill in the use of the
rifle. There are a number of capital shots
in Savannah, and it does not appear that
there would be any difficulty in organizing
the club. Already we hear a noted shot
has been called to the front as Colonel
Gildersleeve, and another as Captain Bo-
dine. Among the “shooters” the project
meets with favor, and it is not improb
able that before the close of another week
an excellent team will be thoroughly or
ganized. We would be pleased to chron
icle this event, and hope that the move
ment may prove successful.
Excursion to Beach Hammock—A Gener
ous Act of Mr. Arkwright.
We learn that Mr. Thomas Arkwright
proprietor of Beach Hammock, has ten
dered his comfortable steamer, the Mary
Draper, to the Sisters of St. Joseph for
the purpose of taking the orphan boys
under their charge on an excursion to
that delightful resort. This generous
offer has been gratefully accepted by the
Sisters, and the boys, to the number of
forty, will be treated to the trip this
morning, the“ steamer leaving her
wharf at 10 o’clock. The excursion will
be quite a novelty to the little fellows,
and they will undoubtedly have an enjoy
able time. We wish them a pleasant
day.
After a Magisterial Berth.
It seems that there is no lack of appli
cants for the position of Justice of

They are already in the field and are ac

We received yesterday a singular speci
men of the agricultural kingdom, which

is a triple ear of com, with a small nubbin
in the centre, a la the Siamese order.
The three ears are perfectly formed and

of the stalk. It is quite a curiosity.

RAILROAD MATTERS.
The Central Railroad and the Mobile and
Girard Railroad.
The annual meeting of the stockholders
of the Mobile and Girard Railroad was
held in Girard, Alabama, on Wednesday
last. The total number of stockholders
present did not exceed forty, including
Colonel Wm. M. Wadley, President; Mr.
W. L. Clark, Superintendent, and Mr, J.
V. Frazer, Treasurer.
There were represented 12,790 shares;
necessary to a quorum, 6,395. The Cen
tral Railroad Company are the largest
stockholders, owning 4,740 shares: Co
lumbus, 1,243 shares.
The Central Railroad controls a great
deal more stock than the mere nominal
amount—also has the determination of
all questions relating to the ro*i,inits
power.
president’s report.
Office Mobile and Gjbard R. R.,)
June 1, 1875. >
To the Stockholders:
The accompanying reports of the Gen
eral Superintendent and of the Secretary
and Treasurer leaves but little for the
Board to say in order to give you a full
understanding of the affairs of the com
pany and the operations on your road
for the past year.
By these reports it will be seen that
the earnings have been $139,290 30
And the expenses 115,604 42
Leaving net $22 685 88
This result is rather better than that of
the previous year, and has been produced
by the most rigid economy, together with
some abatement in the competition of
other lines. But we are yet called upon
to face an increased indebtedness, and
therefore the outlook for the future is far
from encouraging. The Central Rail
road and Banking Company of Georgia
has continued to purchase and hold the
coupons of the bonds of this company as
they have fallen due, and it will be seen
by the Treasurer’s report that our obli
gations to that company now amount to
$351,843 72 in addition to the past due
bonds of this company now held by that
company. An analysis of the Treasu
rer’s report will show the entire debt of
the company to be $1,080,408 98. This
is an increase of $71,449 18 over what it
was at the close of the previous year, and
now amounts to $12,710 69 per mile of
road.
It will be seen by the Treasurer’s report
that on the first of January next $50,000
of the company’s first mortgage bonds
will become due, and on the first of July,
1876, $217,500 more will fall due. These,
with those that are past due and held by
the Central Railroad and Ranking Com
pany of Georgia, constitute the entire
issue of first mortgage bonds. The ques
tion of how to arrange to meet them as
they fall due demands your senous consid
eration. In the face of a constantly in
creasing indebtedness the board cannot
suggest any method short of a sale of
the property mortgaged, unless the Cen
tral Railroad and Banking Company of
Georgia will agree to take them up, as
they have those which have already
become due. If that company would
agree to such a proposition it
would obviate the expense attending
a foreclosure of the mortgage and
sale of the property, and is so barely pos
sible, that with more prosperous times,
the income of the company may be suf
ficient to meet the interest and reduce its
indebtedness. If y^u think such course
desirable, it may be proper for you to
instruct the incoming board to enter into
negotiations with the Central Railroad
aud Banking Company of Georgia with a
view of its purchasing these bonds and
holding them for some stipulated time.
It is unpleasant for the board to be
obliged to make this discouraging state
ment, but having done all that is possi
ble to reduce the expenses, the stubborn
fact must be stated that the country does
not afford sufficient business to support
the railroads it^contains. From close
personal observation the board can bear
testimony to all that is said by the Gen
eral Superintendent as to the condition
of the road, and it is confidently believed
that there is no railroad in the country
whose affairs are more economically ad
ministered.
Respectfully submitted,
W. M. Wadley, President.
The Superintendent’s report showed an
increase of $5,835 15 in freight business
over that of last year, whilst there was a
decrease of $3,608 22 in passenger fares.
The ratio of expenses for the past year
has been only $1,360 05 per mile. The
net earnings of $22,685 88 showed a de
cided improvement over the last report,
for while the income has only increased
$2,322 13, expenses have been reduced
$16,114 12.
Mr. J. M. Frazer, Treasurer, made a
full exhibit of the liabilities and assets of
the road and the financial condition of
the road. The account of profit and loss
shows a debt of $116,266 12, against
$98,723 41 in last report.
N. P. Banks, of Enon, Ala., offered the
following resolutions :
Inasmuch as the company is unable to
provide funds for the payment of its
bonds to fall due January and July, 1876,
and for coupons to fall due within that
time,
Resolved, That we do hereby authorize
the Board of Directors of the Mobile and
Girard Railroad to sell or lease the same
for ninety-nine years, with all its fran
chises, for a sum not less than the total
indebtedness of the road, upon the condi
tion that the purchaser or lessee shall
keep the road in good order and conform
to all the regulations of our charter; pro
vided, that inasmuch as they may not
either sell or lease the road ; then
Resolved, That the Central Railroad be
requested to purchase said bonds and
coupons, and to hold them for a limited
time under the mortgage, this company
being still bound for the interest on said
bonds and coupons after their security.
Considerable discussion took place over
these resolutions, participated in by
Mayor Mcllhenny and T. P. F. Three-
wits, as opposed to the proposed lease,
and Judge Downing, Dr. N. P. Banks
and Col. Wadley, contra, the latter stating
that the Central Railroad had never
sought to get the Mobile and Girard in
its present condition, and would gladly
be relieved of all its responibility and
connection with it.
John Peabody, Esq., said it was natural
when one had “broken,” to blame some
body. The Central Railroad must eventu
ally get control of the Mobile and Girard,
or some competing road would. He pre
ferred, for the sake of the road, and for
the sake of Columbus, that the Central
should have it. If the efforts to sell or
lease the road failed, then the Central
would be asked to take charge of it. He
did not think the Central Railroad ought
to bo forced to go to law for its rights
after they had extended favors at the
solicitation of the road. He hoped that
the latter part of the resolution would be
passed. This would please all parties.
If the Central Railroad refuses to pay
coupons, then they can ask us to sell or
lease the road.
After further discussion, in which
President Wadley stated that the Central
Railroad had no desire to lease or pur
chase the road, and could not do so with
out an enabling act of the Legislature,
and Mayor Mcllhenny disclaimed any
intention to reflect on the Central Rail
road, yet stating he objected to a ninety-
nine years’ lease, and had rather the road
would be sold under the mortgages be
cause the city of Columbus had nearly
$600,000 in the road, and he could not
consent for such a measure as the lease
proposed, and he would be satisfied if
the lease could be made for twenty years,
or for thirteen years, by which time all
the bonds will be due.
An amendment to strike out “ninety-
nine years” in the resolution was offered
and carried. Then the resolution was
passed so that the first part of it should
read as follows:
“Resolved, That we do hereby author
ize the Board of Directors of the Mobile
and Girard Railroad to sell the same, or
lease it for a period of thirteen years (by
which time all the bonds will bo due),
with all its franchises, in the event of
lease, for a sum not less than the interest
on the indebtedness; or in the event of
sale, for a sum not less than the entire
indebtedness of the road, upon condition
that the purchaser or lessee shall keep
the road in good order and conform to all
the requisitions of our charter.”
The remaining parts of the original
resolutions were left unchanged, Tfle
resolutions as amended were passed
unanimo usly.
At the election the following officers
were elected:
President—Wm. M. Wadley.
Superintendent—W. L. Clark.
Treasurer—J. M. Frazier.
Directors—R. L. Mott, L- T. Downing,
John Peabody, H. H. Epping, W. P.

The Fally of Learinf Home—A Few Prac
tical Idea*.
Savannah, Ga., July 7, 1875.
Editor Morning News:
Many of my friends have emigrate J,
and are breaking up fresh soil in Texas.
! Though their stone has rolled, I hope
they may gather moss, for when they
were home, thev were like aunt’s old set
ting hen, which gets no corn. Really,
these hard times makes a man think of
his wings; but I am tied by the leg to my
own home, and I hope to live and die
among my own people. They may do
things better somewhere else, but Savan
nah for me. N© man’s lot is fully known
till he is dead and gone. He who rides in
the carriage may yet have to walk.
Sawyers change places (they say), and
he who is up aloft may have to take his
turn in the pit. In less than a hundred
years we shall all be poor or rich or bald,
and who knows what he may come to
before that. The thought that we may
sometime be under the window should
make us careful when we are throwing
out our dirty water. With what measure
we mete it shall be measured to us again,
aud therefore let us look well to our
dealings with the unfortunate. Nothing
makes me so sick with human nature as
to see the way in which men (men, too,
who go to church and say to their breth
ren that they are Christians,) treat others
when they fall down the ladder of for
tune. *‘Away with him!” they cry—
“Down among the dead meD, down, down;
Down among the dead men, there let him lie.”
Dog won't eat dog, but men will eat
each other up, and boast of it, too. There
are hundreds in this world who fly like
vultures to eat on a tradesman, a mer
chant, a doctor, a lawyer, and especially
a preacher, as soon as he gets into trouble.
Where the carcass is, thither will the
eagles be gathered together. Instead of
a little help they give the sinking man a
great deal of trouble. If Providence
smites him all men’s whips begin to
crack. The dog is drowning, and there
fore all his friends empty their buckets
over him. The tree has fallen, and
everybody runs for his hatchet. The
house is on fire,l.nd all the neighbors warm
themselves. The man has ill luck, there
fore his friends give him bad usage; he
ha3 tumbled over in the road, and they
drive their carts over him; he is down,
and selfishness cries, “Let him be kept
down, then there will be more room for
those who are up.”
How astonishing it is when those who
kicked you down knock you for not
standing up ! It is not pleasant to hear
that you have been a fool, and there were
a hundred ways, at least, of keeping out
of your difficulty, only you had not the
sense to see them. “He vught to have
locked the trunk." Everybody can see
that, but nobody offers him a shirt.
“ What a pity he went so far on the ice /”
That’s very true, but that won’t save him
from drowning. When a man’s coat is
threadbare it is an easy thing to pick a
hole in it. Good advice is poor food for
a hungry people.
“A man of words and not of deeds,
Is like a garden full of weeds.”
Most men who go down the hill meet
with Judas before they get to the bottom.
Those whom they helped soon forget
it, or repay it by unkindness. The dog
wags his tail until he gets the bone, and
then he snaps and bites at the one who
fed him. Eaten bread is forgotten, and
the hand that gave it is despised. The
candle lights others and is burned away
itself.
The noble man always takes the side of
the weak, but noble spirits do not often
ride along our streets and roads. You
cau get hawks and bull bats and kites by
the score, but the nobler breed you don’t
see once in a life time. Did you ever
bear the crows read the burial service over
a dead sheep before they eat it ? Well,
that’s wonderfully like the neighbors cry
ing “What a pity! How did it occur?
Oh dear, oh dear!” and then falling to
work to get each of them a share of the
plunder.
“In times of prosperity friends will be plenty.
In times of adversity not one in seventy.”
When the wind serves, all aid. While
the pot boils, friendship blooms. All the
neighbors are cousins to the rich man,
but the poor man’s brother scarcely knows
him. I have seen men who pretend to be
friends to a falling man because there are
some few pickings yet. It was not a
good sign when the fox walked into the
hen house and said, “Good morning to
you all, my dear friends.” A good man
may be put in the fire, but he can’t be
burned. His hope may be drenched, but
not drowned. He plucks up courage and
sets a stout heart to a stiff hill, and gets
over rough ground where others lie down
and die.
“Though the bird’s in the net,
It may get away yet.”
Jonah went to the bottom of the sea,
but he got to the shore again all the bet
ter for his watery journey. Now, excuse
me for spinning this long yarn, for as I
pulled it came. My words seem like the
Irishman’s rope which he could not get
into the ship, because somebody had cut
the end off. Pabvus.

A Dodging Affair.
We have noticed the arrest, trial and
acquittal of Edgar Jones, charged by
Jno. W. Dodge, a book agent, with having
purloined a certain sum of money from
him. A witness in this case was George
Bryan, and it appears that Dodge was
not satisfied with his evidence. We are
informed that Dodge ascertaining that
Bryan owed a small bill in Yamacraw,
purchased the account and had Bryan
brought before the gTand jury which
met yesterday, as a cheat and swiEcJle*-
The grand jury failed to find a true bill
against Bryan, and now that indivi
dual thus aroused intends to bave
Dodge arrested for perjury, claiming
that he had left collateral with his credi
tor for)the debt. The indications are that
this affair, in which there is so much
dodging, will develop some interesting
facts.
Serenade to Col. Hardeman.
Hon. Thomas Hardeman, Jr., Grand
Chancellor, Knights of Pythias, for the
jurisdiction of Georgia, visited Excelsior
Lodge, K. of P., last night, and con
ferred the A. K. degree on several appli
cants. The attendance at the lodge was
very large, some seventy-five Knights
being present. After the dismissal of
the lodge, Mr. H. was escorted to the
Pavilion Hotel, accompanied by the Sa
vannah Volunteer Guards Band, was
serenaded there, etc. After several tunea,
he was called on for a speech, and re
sponded in a very eloquent manner. He
was followed by J. R. Saussy, Esq., in a
neat speech.
Keroaeae Explosion—Narrow Eorape.
Yesterday morning, about half-past six
o’clock, the cook employed at the resi
dence of Albert N. Hill, 64 Bryan street,
near Lincoln, undertook to refresh the
flames in her stove by pouring upon the
kindling kerosene oil. Whilst in this
sensible act there was a sudden explo
sion. The can went one way, the cook
another, and a diminutive Ethiopian was
thrown some distance off. Fortunately,
none were seriously injured, and during
the day were about, as usual. Their escape
from a terrible death was indeed mirac
ulous.

A Baby (*eu Her Mather Oat of Jail.
Yesterday morning early Charlotte
Young, a colored woman, was arraigned
before Magistrate Russell on a charge of
breach of the peace, and being unable to
! furnish bonds was sent to jail. During
i the day application was made to the So
licitor General through a female friend of
Charlotte to obtain her release. The fe
male had an infant in her arms, which
she stated was the offspring of Charlotte,
and that the mother having been denied
permission by the committing magistrate
to carry her babe with her to jail, the
young innocent was in danger of becom
ing a mortuis caput. The matter was
brought to the attention of Judge Tomp
kins during the session of the Superior
Court yesterday, and the following order
was issued:
“ In re. Charlotte Young, p. c.,
upon good and sufficient showing made,
it is ordered, considered and adjudged,
that Charlotte Young, p. c., committed
to jail by Isaac Russell, J. P., be dis
charged from further custody; and that
it is further ordered that the Clerk of this
Court do furnish the jailer with a certi
fied copy of this order.”
Daring the afternoon, however, the at
torney for Charlotte sent a bond to
Magistrate Russell's office, and he imme
diately dispatched an officer to the jail
for the prisoner, under the impression
that she was still there. The officer soon
returned and reported that the woman
had been discharged on the order of some
other official. Magistrate Russell was at
a loss to account for this, but a perusal
of the order we have given above will
probably explain matters satisfactorily to
him, and show that an innocent baby
effected the release of its mother.
Navannah’a Gi eat Pleasure Resort—Ar
rangement** for the Summer at Isle of
Hope.
It will be observed, by notice else
where, that the management, at a meet
ing held yesterday, determined to sup
port Superintendent Haines and his
officers and men. A band of music
will be present every afternoon, and vis
itors will have no lack of facilities for
enjoying themselves. The bathing at
this point is delightful, and no finer or
more attractive platform can be
found anywhere. All needful refresh
ments and substantial may be ob
tained at Buckingham’s, who has made
ample provision to feed the hungry,
“water” the thirsty, and to further every
thing tending to the enjoyment of the
day.
Excursion tickets sold on the 5:10 p.
m. train are good to return on either the
6:24 or 8:53 train. Parties taking train
leaving the city at 7:40 will have three-
quarters of an hour to spend at the Isle,
ample time to enjoy a bath and a good
fish or crab supper. We can commend
those who want to spend a pleasant hour
or so, to jump on the train and hie to the
delightful Isle. Remember the excursion
train to-day.
A Row In a Colored Church.
We are informed that a row has been
brewing in the Bethlehetn (African) Bap
tist Church, for some time past, between
the pastor and the leading lights in the
church, which culminated yesterday in
the arrest of Frank Lloyd, George Adams
and William Henderson, the elders, on
complaint of Rev. Edward D. Brown, the
pastor, on the charge of a misdemeanor.
These elders claim that they employed
the pastor by the month, and, after trial,
finding he did not suit the congregation,
they have been trying to get rid of him,
and forbade him to preach in the church.
In defiance of their instructions, how
ever, he appeared at the church on Thurs
day night and took his seat in the pulpit,
as usual, and commenced to preach. This
rather riled the sensibilities of the elders,
and they, or some other parties who were
in the ring, turned the lights out and put
a stop to operations. After the lights
were extinguished, it is said, a general
row ensued in the church, and several of
the congregation were arrested and es
corted to the barracks. The arrested
parties appeared before Magistrate Smith
yesterday and gave bonds for their ap
pearance.
Superior Court.
Judge Henby B. Tompkins, presiding.

Muck Smoke but Little Fire.
Yesterday evening, about half-past six
o’clock, smoke was seen issuing from the
two and a half story brick building coi
ner of Drayton street and Broughton
street lane, occupied by Mr. James C.
Saltus as a carpenter shop. No alarm was
sounded, but the smoke being perceived
by some members of the Bartow Fire
Company, they brought down in a jiffy
their hose reel The doors were broken
open, and the fire was discovered to be
located in the rear of the building, in a
pile of shavings. A wooden post had
caught, and but for the prompt discovery
the building, in all probability, would
have been destroyed. The Bartows bav
ing gotten water, it was soon extinguish
ed, the damage being trifling. Tne build
ing is owned by Mr. John Nicolson, and
was uninjured to any degree.
The fire attracted an immense crowd in
a few minutes, notwithstanding there was
no alarm, and this may be taken as an
evidence that there are a good many peo
ple who have nothing to do.
Bankrupt Roll.
From Mr. Willard C. Warner, the cour
teous Deputy Clerk of the United States
