of age, and still in possession of her fall
faculties and happy in owning auoh a nu
merous progeny.
Alarm of Fir*.
One waa given yesterday morning about
11 o'olook. Smoke was seen issuing from
an outhouse of the grounds on whioh
Col. B. L. Mott's residence is situated.
The fire department waa promptly out,
but a garden pump on the premises ex
tinguished all the dames before they could
attempt to get into action. Loss, if any,
was trifling. Engaged in smoking meat.
An Em-Fighting Parma.
Many people have an ides that when a
person cornea from the wire-grses regions
of Georgia he is not “much pumpkins,”
to us» a vulgarism. 8aoh so opinion was
entertained of Bev. B. J. Corley, recently
appointed pastor of St. Luke M. E.
Church. The question was “what good
can come out of Naxerethf extreme
Southwestern Georgia being tha Naaareth.
Mr. Corley preaohed Sunday. We heard
a knot of influential Methodists talking
about it yesterday. “He ia one of tbe
most eloquent ministers in tbe Confer
ence," waa the universal sentiment-
“Earnest,” “brilliant,” “polished,” were
among the praises bestowed.
“Yes," saidanotber, “andamong the beat
soldiers in our army. He was a private,
and in four years of Confederate service
never missed a roll oall, or a battle, in
whioh hia regiment was engaged. I be
lieve the good Lord saved him for Colnm
bus.”
Such were the eulogies bestowed
The congregation is oharmed with the
“wire grass preeoher," and want
other. Mr. Corlsy is following in the
footsteps of Bev. O. L. Smith, D. D., now
President of Emory College, and among
the most powerful divines in the whole
oountry, who, when first appointed to
St. Luke Church, was termed a “wire
grass preaoher,” One sermon proved
the staff of whioh he was made. After
listening to their second pastor from that
region, St. Lake Church wants, after tbe
present one has been retired nnder the
pesttme rule of four years, no other
minister exoept from the “wire grass
country.'’ That section must breed able,
powerful, pulpit orators.

We find upon inquiry that the estimates
of the probable reoeipta of Columbus
have been rednoed in the laet two weeks,
not so much because the staple was not
made, but from the faot that we have not
gotten and will not get the amount that
oame last year from all sections. The
through ootton by the M. A G. B. H. has
about doubled what it was last season,and
other cities have secured some of that
whioh, owing to the yellow fever in Mont
gomery, and other oausea waa sent here
in 1874. The gaueral opinion is, however,
we will get folly as much as last aeaaon.

Corps. Exhumed.
The negro who waa accidentally killed
on the Western train did not prove to be
the one supposed. Superintendent Ball
waa telegraphed to in Montgomery. In
a short time the imagined dead man
stepped into his offlee. A colored man,
named John Moran, in Opelika, olaimed
that the deceased, from the description,
was his step-eon. To gratify him, and
for tha purpose of identification, the
body was exhumed, in Opelika, when the
father found be was correct. The name
of the deoeased is Brown. Ha was for
merly in the employ of Col. Bobert
Thompson, of Columbus, and is said to
have been once the earrings driver of Col.
W. L. Salisbury. The body was re-ia-
terred in Opelika. Conductor Colvin
asked a colored man why tbe body was
carried to Opelika when the man had been
killed so near Columbus. “Why,” an
swered he, “he has paid his fare, and
they were obliged to carry him.”

Merchant!* and Mechanics' Rank,
This institution proposes to increase its
capital aevaral hundred tbousaud dollars,
on tbe mutual loan plan, somewhat aimi
lar to that of the Building and Loan As
sociation*. The plan wan folly detailed
in the advertisements which have been
published in this paper. Judge Johnson,
to whom application was made, declined
togpant tbe charter on the ground he had
no power to ohartar a bank, and that waa
the ultimate objeot. By reference to our
speoiale from Atlanta it will be noted that
Senator Crawford has already introduced
into the Legislatnre a bill for the incorpo
ration. As no objection oan be raised it
will undoubtedly pass. Macou has formed
two considerable banks under this plan,
we are informed. Banking facilities ere
wbat we need in Columbus.

Moorage. County-AdHraWa condition
./ Her Finance!.
The statement for 1874 is aa fallows:
Paid out on Contingent fund, $14,305.52;
Court-House and Jail, $1,918.25 ; Jurors
aud B*liff'*, $6,933.7.7—total expenses:
$23,157.6*.
Iu tbe Contingent fund are included
some $4,000 spent in tbe building and re
pairs of bridges, salaries of officers and
all expenses save tbe other items men
tioned.
After paying all this, the county has in
bank, to-day, to her credit, $13,605.33.
The acceunt of Treasurer Markbam bal
anced exactly with tbe vouehers present
ed with the exoeption of seven cents
which tha county owes him.
Hardly four years ago our oonnty owed
soma $63,000. A Board of Commission
ers waa appointed, and a new Ordinary
elected. To-day the oouuty does not owe
a dollar, exoept $0,000 of bonds whioh
have several years yet to run, and has
$12,606 33 in her treasury. The commis
sioners deem it wise not to expend this
fnnd in purchase of these bonds, for tbe
May court is not far off, and the spring
freshets may create havoo with our
bridges as they did last year; but which
ia not probable, as all have been strength
ened, and the new ones made mnohhigher
and given additional improvements.
Where the commissioners have done so
well, is it wise at prudent to take from
them any of the powers they possess?
This is the question to be propounded to
our Legislators when they propose an
abridgement of the authority given them.
The prospect now is that taxes will be
greatly rednoed unless some catastrophe
ensues, against which human vigilance
cannot guard. Tbe present year the
county tax has been reduoed. When it is
to be levied again all the probabilities are
she will have settled for all her bonds,
and owe not a oent to any one, and at the
same time have enough cash on band to
replaoe any bridges whioh have beau de
stroyed with iron structures, which the
contractors will guarantee to last longer
than the streams will run, and at the
same time county taxes will be reduced to
a nominal sum. To our Commissioners
and offloers, Muscogee can say “Well
done, good and faithful servants.”

Columbus, Ga., Jan. 14, 1875.
We desire to tmy to those of our cus
tomers, who are in debt to us for goods
bought last year, that we are in great
need of money to carry ou our business.
Our credit accounts made in the spring
and summer, were due on the first of
Ootober, and it is simply justice that you
oorne forward and pay them up. It will
be impossible for us to aocommodato you
unless you first settle tha old soores. We
dislike to proceed to bar.h measures to
oolleot our debts, but when our necetsi
ties force us to raise large sums to meet
our obligations, we are often cramped to
do it. Please oall and pay up. Our ad
vertisement in this paper will give full
information of onr whereabouts, aud also
of our large stock of Groceries.

Negro Killed by Aatlhtr.
A negro mao, Ike Baldwin by name,
was stabbed and killed by a colored boy,
known as Wiliie Jeter. It occurred on
tha plantation of Mr. Donier, near tha
North and South Boilroad, a number of
miles from the oity.
Ike is a powerful negro, who has lately
served out bis time, for stealing, on the
ohaiu gang. Jeter is about seventeen
years of ago. Some quarrel had risen be-
tvro.n the two, when Ike seiEing a ohair,
knocked Jeter down and than jumped on
and commenced beating him. Jeter,
witn difficulty, drew a knife and stabbed
Ike in the left breast once or twiee, in
flicting mortal wounds. Tha wounded
man died in two hoars.
Tbe affair happened Monday night.
Jeter has been arrested.
From this account givan os by colored
men, he seems to have been perfectly
justified and acted only in self-defense.

A Bill* ISA Tears Old
Mr. John Appleyard, one of the Super,
iutendeuts of the Eagle and Phoenix Man
ufactory, has a family Bible whiob wbs
published in 1711, one hundred and sixty,
four years ago, in England, in the reign
of Queen Anne. It eontains her order
and that of Nottingham, her minister,
commanding all loyal subjects to regard
it aa authentic and possessing queenly
approval. It oombinea the Bible, prayer
and hymn book of the Ohurch of England.
It is printed in black letter, with “C's”
spelled with “K’s,” and “Th” with “Y's.”
It oontains a registry of births and deaths
of the family of Appleyards from that
day to this. Mr. A. maintains that he
oan traoe back hia family to Germany,
wheu they were banished and took refuge
in England at the time of the massacre of
St. Bartholomew, in tbe reign of Charles
IX of Franco, some three hundred years
ago. Be that as it may, the volume ia an
interesting study for those who are fond
of old times and their relics.

THE SUNDAY ENQUIRER.
With tha New Ynar we separate tbe SUNDAY ENQUIBEB from the DAILY.
This waa a necessity, from the faot th»t tnmj hundreds were taking the SUNDAY
that did not taka tha Dailt, and it was tmt right that they should have a journal that
visited them bat ouoe n week, snpirior to the Daily. Oa this paper „
largely risk tha financial suoeesa of onr antarpriie, and this being the ossa wa pro
pose to make it in every way worthy of popular support, and tha beat advertising D ,
dinm in the land.
Wt do not dream of rapid fortune or onexpsoted suooesa. Long year* of hard,
determined work, with one great objeot in view arc absolutely essential to win.
tha requisites of energy,however, would bo unavailing as steam without practical a,
chinery, if we did not make n paper that commanded itself to the public and in who*
pages eaoh subscriber fait ha was more than compensated for hta triftiog investment.
Knowing this we propose to make the SUNDAY ENQUIBEB the beat family p,p, r
in tho South.
ITS DEPARTMENTS.
One serial BTOBY of merit and thrilling interest will be found in the oolumns
of the SUNDAY ENQUIBEB. Throe stories, at least, each n volume in itself, an j
written eaprettlg for thilpaper, will be published during the year. Each story »j]
ba worth tho subscription ptioa of the paper.
General Literature,
Poetry, oirginal and aalacted, will be found in the appropriate columns. At
least two hundred poems, sufficient to make a large volume, will ba published during
tha year. In addition to this there will be a great number of abort and interesting
sketohes of travel, romanoe or general interest.
Ladies’ Department.
This will ba a ma.ked feature in the SUNDAY ENQUIBEB. While tha editor
of .hia Department will give a resume of the changes in tha world of fashion, at tha
same time great oars will ba exercised in the preparation of all articles, the deaira
being to give the necessary information without creating nuy tendency to tbe slaver;
of dress. Articles on female education, records of uoble women, and kindred mitten
will be made a specialty of this department.
Household Matters.
Cooking is as much of a science aa domestic economy; therefore thia depart
ment will be found of nnnanal interest to every housekeeper in tha land. AU nev
receipes that tend to make food more palitable or home more comfortable will ba
published. Besides reoeipes that are uscfnl in the preservation of furniture, cloth-
ing, ornaments, the decoration Of home, and t/ie taring of money. Everybody will
appreciate fully tha benefit of this d^srtmont and it is our desire that they coi-
ribute to it from their own experience and ao do good to their house keeping sisters.
Medical Advice.
While every person if dangerously or severely ill should at once call in a phjsi.
cian, yet there is much in minor cases thst oould be done with a knowledge of simplt
and easily prooured remedies. These will be furnished in this department, in addi
tion to articles on physiology and the laws of health.
Sunday Reading.
While it ig proposed to make the SUNDAY' ENQUIRER such a paper as can he
read at all times and byjevery person with advantage, yet it is but right that we
should set aside a department especially devoted to religion without sectarianism.
Church news will be given under this bead, besides sacred poetry and the best
thoughts of the greatest pulpit orators.
Scientific Notes.
The world owes its progoeiia to the heart of pure religion and the ceaseless brain
of her daughter and hand maiden, Science. Every day new discoveries sre being
made, and these, where they are of general interest and practical utility will be reg
ularly furnished to the subscribers of the SUNDAY ENQUIRER.
New Publications.
In th|s age of many books it is impossible to keep up with the literature of tbi
day. Thia department by eareful reviews will keep our subscribers informed, and
where necessary the cream of all the hooka and periodicals will be carefully given.
Answers to Correspondents.
From this time forward this will be a regnUr and earefully edited department ell
the SUNDAY ENQUIRER. AH questions proposed will bo answered carefully end I
promptly, to tbe best of tbe editor's knowledge and ability, and where an nuswer I
cannot be given the queetion will be published and answers solicited. By tbii |
means inuoh information oan be oonveyed and amusement received.
