The Tax Collector report, that on Teas,
day 129 voters paid their tax, and on
Wednesday 188—total for two daye, 817.
This shown how luauy votes were secured
by osndidates—far less than were ex
pected.
Another Dividend JTstatlf.
The assignees of John Ring have called
another meeting for the creditor* of the
estate at L. T. Downing's office oo Janua
ry 20th—next Wednesday week—at 10 a.
in. It ia very probable that an additional
dividend of ten per cent, will be declared,
making thirty in all up to that time.
This will distribute a considerable amount
of money.
Convent Paid Vor.
The Catholic Fair realized in round
numbers some $2,400. To last Sunday
$2,220 r»0 bad been collected. Tho sum
is sufficient to olear the debt on the build
ing known as the St. Joseph's Academy,
for which $12,000 were paid, and pur
chase new furniture and fixtures. The
chureh and congregation are to be con
gratulated. They own a splendid property
and by hard work have oompletely paid
for it in a short time. Labor and pluck
well guided can accomplish anything in
this life.
Cotton Crop-Estimate of Reeeipts,
The Nashville Cotton Exchange, for the
week ending Jannary let (last Friday),
enquired by telegraph of the various
tionthern ports and interior markets as to
their estimates of the crop already mar
keted. The exchange officers at the dif
ferent places were directed to get the es
timates of the best uierohautH, and send
the averago figures. Uore are the an
swers thus far : Galveston, til per oent.;
Mobile, GO; Memphis, 62; Montgomery,
75; Columbus, 78; Maoon, 75 ; Augusta,
73; Cliarlotte, GO; Nashville, 83. The
average is about 67} per cent. This
luakea over two-thirds marketed by Jaun-
aty 1st, and a crop will be fer less than
any four milliou bales.
Savannah and Memphie R. K.
Trains are now running sixty miles,aud
soon the engineer corps will be in the

bonds heretofore eudorsed, amounting to
$ 1<>,000 a mile, $960,000, and received in

will be disposed of at a great sacrifice.

Probable Receipte of Columbus.
Yesterday we interviewed all tho ware
housemen and shippers of Columbus in
regard to the probable receipts of cotton
at this point for the present season, The
estimates vary with warehousemen from
57.000 to 04,000, and the shippers from
01.000 to 70,000. Tho average
of the eleven firms, embracing
some twenty persons, is 03,700 bales.
Last year Columbus warehoused 01,099.
At present the receipts are 46,721, against
41,779 same time last season, showing an
excess over the previous year of 4,942.
To reach tho average estimate, Columbus
will have to receive after this date 10,-
979 bales, against 19,320 last season.
We find, too, that the large majority of
our cotton merchants believe the present
United Htates orop will not reaoh'four
million bales.
Business depends wholly on cotton ro-
coipts and hence tho reason of devoting
so much attention to tho subject. Iu this
section there ia a strong bull element
and a trust that the orop will be short and
prices advanced.
Factory Jeans, Checks, Sheetings, Os-
naburgs, Ac., together with a full stock of
Substantial Goods iu all lines of Dry

THE SUNDAY ENQUIRER.
With tbs New Tmi we eepurxte the SUNDAY ENQUIRER from the DAILY.
Thie wee > neeeeeity, from the feet thet mtay hnndrede were taking the SUNDAY
thet did not take the Duly, and it was bnt right that thaj ahonld hare a journal that
riaited them bnt onoe a week, enpirior to the Daii.t. On thie paper w.
largely risk the flnanoial enceeae of onr enterprise, and thie being the sum we pro.
pose to meke it in every wey worthy of popular rapport, and the beet advertiaiag m«.
dium in the land.
We do not dream of rapid fortune or nnexpeoted eneoom. Long yean of hard,
determined work, with ono great objeot in view am abaolutely eaiential to win. A1
the reqniaitee of energy,ho wnver, would be unavailing as (team without praeUoal ma
chinery, if we did not make a paper that eommradnd itaalf to tha pnblio and in whose
pages eaoh subscriber felt he was more than compensated for hie trifling investment.
Knowing this we propose to make the SUNDAY ENQUIRER the bent family paper
in h H oh ITS DEPARTMENTS.
One serial STORY of merit and thrilling interest will be fonnd in the oolnmn,
of the SUNDAY ENQUIRER. Three stories, at least, eaoh a volume in itaelf, and
writttn expreuly for thi. paper, will be published during the year. Eaoh story will
be worth the subscription prioe of the paper.
General Literature,
Poetry, oirginal end selected, will be fonnd in the appropriate oolumns. At
least two hundred poems, sufficient to make a large volume, will be published daring
the year. In addition to thia there wiU be a great number of short and Interesting
sketehes of travel, romanoe or general interest.
Ladies’ Department.
This will be a ma.ked feature in the SUNDAY ENQUIRER. While the editor
of thia Department will give a resume of the ohengos in the world of fashion, at th.
same time great oere will be exercised in tha preparation of all articles, the deair.
being to give the necessary information without oreating any tendency to the slavery
of dress. Articles on female education, records of noble women, and kindred matters
will he made a specialty of thia department.

W bile every persou if dangeronsly or severely ill ahould at once oall in a physi
cian, yet then is tnnob in minor cases that oonld be done with n knowledge of simple
and easily procured remedies. These will be furnished in this department, in addi
tion to articlea on physiology and the laws of health.
While it is proposed to make the SUNDAY ENQUIRER snob a paper as oen be
read at all times and by .every person with advantage, yet it ie but right that we
ahonld set aside a department especially devoted to religion witbont sectarianism.
Church news will be given under thie heed, besides saored poetry and the best
thoughts of the greatest pulpit orators.
The world owes its progoess to the heart of pure religion and the ceaseless brain
of her daughter and band maiden, Soience. Every day new discoveries are being
made, and these, where they are of general interest aud praotioal utility will be reg
ularly furnished to the subscribers of the SUNDAY ENQUIRER,
In this age of many books it is impossible to keep up with the literature of tlio
day. Thia department by oarefnl reviews will keep our subscribers informed, anil
where necessary the cream of ell the books aud periodicals wiU be oarefully given.
From this time forward this will be a regular and oarefully edited department of
the SUNDAY ENQUIRER. All qneetione proposed will be answered carefully ami
promptly, to the best of the editor's knowledge and ability, and wbare an auswei
cannot be given the qa»tion will be published and answers solicited. By this,
means rnuoh information can be conveyed and amusement reeeived.
In this depsrtment will be fonnd news from the Oranges and all the recent, agri
cultural discoveries and experiments.
Believing that a little nonsense now end then is proper, and that a man can dona
wrong and think no evil while laughing, this department will be filled with the Wit
and Humor of the day.
While the readers of the SUNDAY ENQUIRER can tee for themaelves what is
saying and doing, it is proper that they should know what other able jonrnala
say, therefore a digest of opinion, or matters of interest, or well selected articles will
be given each week.
The SUNDAY ENQUIRER has so many friends and patrons in Alabama, that it
is right we should furnish them a synopsis of their State news.
