CHURCHES SUN It A Y.
Large Congregations and Handsome
Collections.
At Trinity (Episcopal) Ut. Bet. Bishop
Beckwith preached able and eloquent ser
mons in the forenoon and at night, and
confirmed a olas* of fifteen—one on the
for my and fourteen on the latter occa-
aion. Church crowded. Sermons were
characterized by the Rev. gentleman’s
usual force and ability. He is tho finest
elocutionist in the State. In the afternoon
the children of the Sabbath School had a
pleasant choral exercise, which was great-
enjoyed by all present. In song, the chil
dren of this church canoot be excelled.
At St. Luke Church, the pastor took up
his Conference collection in the morning,
and realized a goodly sum. At the Church
Conference, hold in the afternoon,'MTreaa-
arer Brannon read his annual report,
which showed that abont $2,300 had been
collected and expended for church pur
poses during the year. This church will
meet all expenses and assessments, which
speaks well for the congregation daring
this trying season.
At St. Paul Church, the pastor in the
foreuoon took up his missionary, confer
ence and Bishops’ collection, realizing the
large amount of $588. This church, slso
will be able to moot all expenses and as
sessments. The conference year closes
with oar Methodist Churohes this week.
At the Catholic Chnrch the usual ser
vices were held. Large congregations
were present. Father Hamilton preaches
with great ability, and has beoome great
ly beloved by bis congregation, and is
also growing in popularity among Protes
tants, nnrubers of whom attend Sunday
afternoons to hear the fine musio produ
ced by the ohoroh choir.
Nothing out of the usual routine at the
other city churches.
Hk who does good from the hope of re
ward would murder from the same incen
tive.
Arrested for Forgery.
A young man, L. K. Martin by name,
said to be the non of Rev. C. P. B. Mar
tin, who taught school iu Columbus du
ring the war, was arrested Saturday night
by Captain John Foran and officer Josh
Roper, of our police force, for forgery,
The officers report that he has been at the
Rankin House for a week. On Saturday
night he went to the Hans Souci, obtained
several driuks, and offered in payment an
unstamped check for seventy-five dollars,
purporting to be drawn by “D. F. Wil
cox” on tho Georgia Home Bank. Change
could not be effected, and he left for the
Baltimore Clothing House, where he was
fitted with suits. Here he offered this
same check, which was declined until
identification was procured. Officers ar
rested him, suspicion having been aroused
by*bis conduct.
After being placed in the guard-house
he made a confession. The forgery was
dsteotad in the fact that Mr. Willcox’s
name was spelled on the check, which wm
dstad November 28th, with only one “1,”
and also from the ciroumstance that for a
long period Mr. W. has not been connect
ed with the Georgia Home. The young
man also confessed that he sold last Janu
ary, at a disoouut, for $274, to J. J.
Coheu, of Augusta, certain sorip for wood
furnished the Georgia Railroad, whioh
belonged to his brother, and whioh the
latter disowned. Tho arrested party ia a
yonug man of pleasing address. The of
ficers tell ns he will be released, os Mr.
W illcox declines to prosecute. We hope
he will learn something from this sad ex
perience.
Tuk war is over, thank Heaven. Its
dead are buried, aud only partisans make
capital out of the graves.

North and South Railroad—Its Future—
What Columbus Individuals Propose.
In a recent issue the LsGraoge He-
porter refers to a rumor that Columbus is
moving to get oontrol of the North and
South Railroad. The paper urges the
Troup stockholders to look to their inter
est, sod asks us for information.
We havo delayed answer until we might
interview the late President, the city offi
cials, existing and prospective, and our
prominent tax-payers. All are oppoeed,
without exception, to the oity, as a corpo
ration, taking any action in aid of the en
terprise. The old friends and officials of
the company are positive on this point,
saying that had the people on the line un
derstood sooner that Columbus, LaGracge
and Rome could not do everything, there
would have been less selfishness, and
more action on their part, and the road
would have gone through despite the
panic and other embarrassing events.
The country is m much bonefittod by the
city os the latter is by the oountry.
In our enquiries we
uneabthfd a flan
now on foot—in fact has been agreed
upon—to render available to Columbus
its large outlay in the road. A private
scheme is to be carried out by private
funds. Prominent in the movement are
those who opposed the rood from the be
ginning, but with characteristic conserva
tism, prudence and enterprise, are willing
to employ their private means to utilize
the city’s investment, and to secure to
our warehouses the 7,000 or 8,000 bales of
ootton, and to our business men the ac
companying trade whioh the oomple
tion of the North and South to Gbiploy or
Troup Factory over the mountain would
guarantee. The plan ia fully matared,and
will, at the proper time, be submitted to
Gov. Smith.
Nothing* will be done in the dork.
Books will be opened, and the co-opera
tion of all oonoerned Invited and urged.
The parties moving in the matter are not
greedy, aud will gladly share the work
they hate undertaken with any one who
will unite with them.
The LaGrange Reporter can rest as
sured of two things:
First—Nothing will be done by Colum
bus, as a corporation, in further aid to the
North and South Road. Friends and foes,
if the latter exists, are ananimous on tbiJ
point.
Seoond—Nothing will be done by the
new movement without giving LsGrange,
and Greenville also, an opportunity to go
in.
Cel. fhee. M. Sharp—Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad.
If this gentleman’s uniform success in
many responsible positions bad not provan
him a remarkable railroad man, his won
derful achievment of constructing ton
miles of the Savannah and Memphis rood
in seven weeks would have entitled him
to the highest position in his profession.
We never pass over the heavy fills and
high bridges (one of them eighty feet
high) of the ten mile* referred to without
experiencing a profound respect for the
man who had the nerve to undertake such
an he rouleau work, and tne ability to
carry it through successfully. We re
member well our amazement at the time,
while goiog over the line, to find a Urge
force working night and day in a heavy
rock cut, while beyond wm seven miles of
almost completed railroad. It wm all
explained, however, when we observed
the construction trains toiling around the
rock barrier over a grade of 500 feet to
the mile.
We are reminded of these events by a
notice in a recent issue of the Baltimore
Gazette of a very materiel evidence, of
their appreciation, extended to Col.
Sharp, by the President and Directors of
the Baltimore and Ohio Road in a consid
erable inoreoM of his salary.
We take the liberty of referring to the
matter, because we know the pleMure the
announcement will afford Col. Sharp’e nu
merous friends in this section.
The Baltimore k Ohio Rood stands to
day the strongest corporation in America;
its turpluz exceeding its entire liabilities,
over $3,000,000. Its President, Mr. Gar
rett, assisted by hia able Vioe Presidents,
Messrs. King and Kyaer, have just com
pleted the Chic Ago extension, the first
railroad ever built in this country without
a mortgage. Now, that it is constructed,
they have added to their splendid reputa
tion by declining to lend it to a fieight
combination; but stand masters of
the situation, independent and far
above every other line in tha EMt, and the
recipients of homage from their formida
ble rival, while their praise is being
sounded by the entire commercial world,
save perhaps New York city, whose
shrewd merchants see, in the near future,
Baltimore’s active and doubtless success
ful rivalry.
To have in charge the operation of this
immense line is a position of high trust
aud grave responsibility, and requires just
the precision aud deoision of oharaoter
aud judgment for whioh Col. Sharp ia so
marked. While his friends here are not
at all surprised at bis sueoess, they are
none the less gratified, and he must over
look a partiality whioh induces us to give
expression to our pleasure.
A poor man's government is a govern
ment of poor men. A workingman’s gov
ernment is a government of law.

RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

Death of Captain denies.
On Sunday, 29th ult., Capt. Jenks was
standing on the track of the Western
Railroad in front of J. T. Holland’s resi
dence, in Lee county, looking after the
2:30 passenger train whioh had just pass

the sound of the train praventing his

Ineroaee of 7,765 Balos.
Since September 1st to Ust night Co
lumbus bM warehoused 31,616 bales of
cotton, against 23,851 last year, showing
au increase of 7,765. The Southwestern
Railroad brought 1,048 bales, a decrease
of 240 bales; the Mobile and Girard
9,201, an inoreaao of 1,660; the Western
Railroad of Alabama 1,358, an increase of
582; the North and Sonth Railroad 1,101,
a decreaso of 81; the river 4,330, an in
crease of 2,099; wagons 14,578, an in
crease of 3,734. Thns it will be seen
that all routes have increased receipts
hoavily except the Southwestern and the
North and Sonth railroads. The river
shown the heaviest comparative gains.
Last season we reoeived from that source
8,415 bales. Thns far we have ware
housed over half that amount, and expect
to get 8,000 more, making the total for
the season at lcMt 12,000 boles, 4,000
more than in 1873-’4.
Columbus, according to the present
rates of receipts, should get 70,000 bales
this season, against 61,099 last year.

Murdered for Money.
Mr. Lewis Bush, who lived in Russell
county, Ala., left his family on November
5th to visit his daughter, who resides near
Coffeeville, Miss. On the 25th his wife
reoeived from the daughter a letter en
closing an extract from a Jackson, Miss.,
paper, whioh described a dead man fonnd
near that city, and the papers on his per
son, whioh piored beyond a doubt that
the body was that of Mr. Bash, and* that
he had been murdered by tome wretch to
secure a few dollars. The deceased never
reached his daughter’s residence, save m
a corpse. A widow, several ehildren, and
hosts of f i iends monrn the loss of a good

IfAlooholie Stimulants ora taken into

Schenck's Mandrake Pills
Will be found to potiess those qualities neoes-
sery to tie total eradication of all bilious at
tack *, prompt to start tha ■eeretloni of the
liver, and Rive a healthy tone to the entire
system. Indeed, it is no ordinary dlsoovery In
medical science to have Invented a remedy for
these stubborn complaints, which develop all
the result* produced by a heretofore free use
of calomel, a mineral justly dreaded by man
kind, and acknowledged to be destructive in
the extreme to the human system. That the
properties of oertain vegetables comprise all
the virtues of oalomel without its injurious
tendencies, is now an admitted fact, rendered
indisputable by scientific researches; and
thoso who uso the Mandrake Pills will be tolly
satisfied that the best medicines are those pro
vided by nature in the oommon herbs and roots
of the fields.
These pills open the bowels and oorrect all
bilious derangements without salivation or
any of the Injurious effects of ealomel or other
poisons. The secretion of bile Is promoted by
these pills, as will be seen by the altered oolor
or tha stools, and disappearing of the sallow

The true road to prosperity is to buy
only what you are able to pay the cosh
for. Appreciating tho fact, I have de
termined to sell from this date for the
cash. By adhering strictly to tnis rule, I
will be able to sell cheaper than when
goods are to be “charged.” Parties in-
dobted to me will confer a great favor by
calling and settling promptly.
