Messrs. 1). Appleton & Co., of t

Last night, about 7, p m., a badly
tightened itji t part o! a ImOK --
and part oi a Imgj^. ran down Ila
pat etalmt, oit the north side 1
street, at a break-neck speed. The cry
of “look out” passed down the street
about as rapidly as the horse, and came
very near having a bad efteot, as one
geutlomiui, in attempting to “ look
bril,” wits ncltrly run over.
This reminds us of a little anecdote
of a Frenchman, who was a passenger
on a canal boat, in canal boat times:
Just as .the boat was under
one of the low bridges in front of the
carnal, the helmsman sstngjoui at Bhe
top of his voice, “ l.ook out.” The
Fretrehman obeyed by stretching his
neck out of the window, an<l well nigh
had the wp Os his head oft’,
“ Sacrc,” says the Frenchman, rubbing
his sQre pate; “Damn ze countree.
When you say look out you mean look
in."
Later—Was this the horse that left
a Georgian and South Carolinian lying
in the road night lirfory last, V'itl l
ribs broken? If so, we presume the
horse has not stopped yet.

A Tuttle CoMlideuee G«in<‘.
Au aged colored couple came to this
city on the afternoon train of Tuesday
Last, from Atlanta, being on then' way
from Mississippi to their old home, near
Goldsboro, N. C. They had in their
possession coiisidera]»le baggage and
ample means to continue their journey.
Not knowing where ta remain until
they couljl Lak»> the Wilmington train,
they stopped al»out the depot. About
dusk otic Rot: ’Wai-KE!:, a fasertfty’
thief of their own color, came to them,
and finding out their intentions in re
gard to going on to North Carolina,
offered very kindly to show them
where they could find lodgings for the
night, and rery humanely put the oil
folks’ baggage on his shoulder. They
followed him away up above the upper
market, where he stopped them and
told them to wait until he stepped into
the house to see if they could stop
there ; they, thinking it was all right,
stopped until they began to think lie
staid a lung while, and on enquiry
found thao the scamp had gone through
some,back way, and taken with him
all they owned in the world. Since
then these unfortunate creatureshave,
been in this city without home or
friends, and do not know how they are
to proceed on their journey. Tire police
have been unable to catch Walicejx,
but we learn that he Is well known
md will be, probably, brought to grief.
Cannot something be done for these
poor creatures ?
Georgia Vfasonic Insurance Com
pany.
The Augusta copies the pro-
xudings of the annual meeting of the Geoi
jia MasoMc Mutual Life Insurance Coin
:>any, held in this city on Friday night, 3(lth
alt., and says:
“We arc pleased to note the, ay, parent pros
perous condition of the Company; but can- ,
not understand why the fee tor admission to
inembei'ship has been increased from six to j
twelve dollars, or what it is projiosed to do
with the additional twenty-one thousand and 1
add dollars to be thus raised. We feel inter
ested, as a member, and, in Ixdialf of many
other members hereabouts, respectfully re
quest to be enlightened on the subject. ’Will
our Brother Burke, the Company’s Secretary,
furnish the information? 5 ’
In reference to this inquiry, the Set rotary
of the Company has furnished us with the
following:
Geougta Masonic Motual Lht Ixst -
r.ante Company.—ln answer to an inquiry
fiom the National Republican-, as well as from
other sources, in regard to changes made in
fee for membership in Jhe above Company, I
state:
In the original formation of the Company
there was no adequate provision made for
expenses, as the $6 for membersbip was
placed in a permanent fund, the interest only
to be used for expenses. At the recent meet
ing it was found that this interest did not
meet the necessary exj>vnscs by alxjut SI,BOO.
The question then arose as to the best inode
of meeting expenses, which were constantly
increasing as the Company grew. We had
to choose between making new members ]iay
a heavier enliaucefee, who come in now with
all the advantages enjoyed by earlier mem
tiers, who had paid entrance fee and sl9
assessments, or assessing the old members
additional amounts. The Company wisely
chose, the latter mode, and now aft new laym
bers must pay sl2, and the overplus of $6
goes to the contingent fund, while the other
goes, as heretofore, to the permanent fund.
If this contingent fund should increase so as
to make it practicable, we shall place all over
the amount necessary to meet actual expenses
to the credit of members on assessments.
As to expenses, we challenge the world to
show where a Company; doing as much busi
ness, overdid it on so small a show of ex
penses. Kespectfiilly,
J. W. Bl It KE,
Secretary and Treasury.
We thank Brother Burke, of the
Macon Journal <C Altsecnycr, for his
prompt, courteous and satisfactory re
sponse to our inquiry. By reference
to Sunday morning’s issue of the Na
tional Reul bi.iuan, he will jievceive
that his explanation was antidpated
by our Rev. Brother Kev, and that
we were prompt to acknowledge Lis
courtesy.

The following is the prospectus of a
new Monthly Magarino, to lie edited
by C aptain Maine Rian, and issued
from the press of Mr. (’arj'ton, of
New York, to whom we refer the
reader for terms, etc.:
“ Omraid" along the track of civilization
—on towards goodruss and glory —n linger
pointing to all that is worthy of attain
meet—a guide to conduct the youth of Amer
ica along that palh hauffiig to the highest and
noblest jnauluxid: such" is the design of
“ Mnyno Reid’s Magazine.”
It is meant for the Youth of America
thy who in a few short years will hold as in
the hollow of tficir hand the destinies not
only of America, but of mankind.
Supreme satisfaction to be even the hum-
Wcst guide in such a glorious inarch; and
while acting its such, “ < hiwrd" will en
deavor to ’prove not only a sure guide, but a
clicerful companion; one wlto. w hile dealing
hugely with the realities of life, will.not
f orget that life has also its romance--css. n
tial to its healthy existence as the food that
is eaten, or the air that is brcathwl.
The literature of this Magazine is intended
to be of the, highest character known to the
pages of a periodical: since the experience of
the Coiuluclor tells him it is not neecsstuy to
iirit'' warn to the Youth of America. It will
l>e illustrated, and to this end the best artists
have been engaged,
Its fit;st number wilHippuir in time for the
Christinas. Holidays; and, in additioti to the
lore suitable to that mystic season, will con
tain the opening chapters of a story of South
American life entitled, “ The Lost Sister; a
Tale of the Pampasas also the commence
ment of “ The Fellow Chief; a Tale of the
Pmirios.”

The. Siccle, of Paris publishes an
artiulo Very intereatkig to sportsmen,
ami states that with a very little care
many accidents coulil be avoided.-
Out of 100 cases of bursting of double
barreled gluts, -W» can be traced to
defects in the left barrel. The rea
son is simply that the right is most fre
quently used and reloaded, perhaps ten
times to the left one being discharged
once. Every time the right barrel is
discharged the gunpowder in the left
is pulverized more'or less by the shock,
which, therefore, leaves a space be
tween the charge and the wadding by
settling. Naturally when the left bar
rel is discharged it frequently explodes-
The accident can be avoided by send'
ing the ram rod home with one or two
smart blows, into the non discharged
barrel every time the other is reloaded.

There is a charm in the name of
‘‘Boiunsvx’k.Circus.” It is now more
years than we care to tell since we
first beheld the mysteries of the“ring”
beneath his pavilion. Since that time
we have never been able to get over
our preference for this show, and
whether or not it is one of the best
in th' country-, we have always been
accu'touted to so consider it. This
circus is billed for this place on Thurs
