In tba oaae referred to, five notorious
women of the town took seata in tba gal

The policeman quietly told them this, and

not sit there they would leave the house,
whioh they did, and rceeived the money

An officer is compelled to obey the orders
of his superior, the marshal. If tha pro
prietor of a halt admits women of the
town to his gallery, and ho has a right to
do so, as no raearva seats are ever sold
there, (known women of the town are
never admitted to the lower floor) the
marshal, before he gives his orders,
should consult the proprietors, tho lessee,
or the next offioer in authority, before he
gives orders for removal. He must listen
to no gentleman. They must ait below,
where they aro subject to no annoyanoes
of the kind described. The owner and
the lessee have the right to demand who
ahull be expelled from tbo halls they own
and rent nnleaa there be disorderly con
duct. Policemen should then arrest
promptly without consulting anyone. We
believe policemen acted aa they thought
for the beat on the night in question, hot
did those women udmitted to the galleries
(they are not allowed on the lower floor)
behave in the least disorderly ? Did not
those gentlemen who complained know
that on the first floor such women were
not allowed, no matter what they paid,
and that said gentlemen had no right to
complain when for the sake of a few
esnts they with ladies sought the gallery,
where all are admitted who pay an equal
prioe within the limits whioh are left to
the diaoreation of the proprietors to
whom the property belonged. The
polioemen simply obeyed orders. Tha
affair ia not now worth enough to blame
anybody; bo let the matter rest. We
have too good a force to censure after suoh
an explanation, and when they deemed
themselves right. We thought once it
was an arbitrary atretoh of authority.

To# two influences inducing early mar
keting were money necessities end good
roads. The money pinch was sharp at
first, bnt toon satisfied; the aotnal debt
for advances being varv much leas than
present year, on aeoonut of tha impossi
bility last spring of obtaining advances,
and the consequent forced eeonomy in
living and planting. The roads ware
good nntil Christmas, bnt they were good
the previous year, ahd only until January
were any complaints made. Ou account
of low rivara much cotton has bean hauled
the previous season to railroad stations,
whioh was not the east the teat. Yellow
fever a-istoted in keeping baok the re
ceipts in 1873.
The Chronicle than epitomizes its rea
sons against tha alow marketing at pres
ent, and the heavy marketing previous to
Deoember, as follows (condensed):
Planters more nearly than any year nines
the war own this crop,- and whan tha first
pinch for money was over (about Decem
ber 1st) were in no harry to sell.
Low prices have prevailed, and tha be
lief all over the South was that it would
be higher.
The extended Granger organization hat
been exerted to keep ootton beck.
The roods, aiooe a little before Christ
mas, have been bad and lately utterly im
passable through the South.
The excitement and uncertainty at New
Orleans, during tha lest two or three
week*, has bad a tendency to oheok ship
ments from that port.
These are the influences advanced by
the Chronicle.
The idvaneea iu this section have been
aa great os planters possibly could pro
cure, and it has proved no exception.
After reading all the acoounta, pro and
con, the best posted cotton men in this
section believe in a United States crop
varying between 3,800,000 and 4,000,000
bales, and they are of tha deeided opin
ion that the staple mast experience a
alight advance. It to the general opinion
that the Chronicle estimate is mnch too
high.

IN BANKBVPTCT.
THE ESTATE OF JOHN XING—SECOND MEET
ING or THE CREDITORS—AM ADDITIONAL
DIVIDEND or TEN PEE CENT. DECLARED,
MAKING THB TOTAL THUS FAS THIRTY PEE
CENT.— PROBABILITT OP ANOTHER TEN
PER CENT. DIVIDEND.
Ae eeiond meeting of the creditors of
John King web held yesterday in the
office of Register L. T. Downing. A som
ber of etoims were proven.
The assignees in bankruptcy, Col. W.
L. Salisbury and John Peabody, Esq.,
made a report. They have on band 935,-
257 75, Bnd recommended tbe payment of
twenty per cent, to all creditors who have
not received dividends from the assignee's
under th'e voluntary deed, end an addi
tional ten per cent, on all claims proven.
This was adapted.
When the ten per oant. shall have been
paid ont, all whose claims have been
proven will have received thirty per cent.
The assignees, under the voluntary
deed of assignment, were allowed the
same commissions as an administrator.
A motion was made to instruct the as
signees to pay 92,600 to Mr. King in lieu
of exemption, Ac., but objection being
made it was withdrawn.
The assignees stated that they were
personally the warm friends of Mr. King;
that they found no authority in law to al
low him any amount as an exemption, and
that they had deelined to do so, and re
fused to recommend its allowance. If the
creditors do bo, it must be of their own
volition.
The assignees reported they had $120,-
000 of doubtful and bad notsa and ao-
counts, and abont $30,000 of partially
bad ones, from which they expected to re
alize about $15,000; and besides, there
remained the interest in the oil mill ma
chinery, the steam ootton mill and the
house aud lot occupied by tbe oil mill.
Tbe total indebtedness of tbe estate to
abont $300,000, and the olaims tbna far
proven 9375,000. The assignee*, under
the voluntary deed, paid a 20 per cent
dividend on 9274,000. Claim* that have
received no dividend amount to some
925,000.
There are claims amounting to aome
925, 000 on which a 20 per oent. dividend
has been declared which have not yetbeen
proven in bankruptcy.
Under the bankrupt law no demand
oan be paid except on olaims proven.
Parlies have ten days from date to prove
olaims to enable them to get dividends.
A failure to do so will eause them to wait
until the next meeting of the stockhol
ders.
We learn from the assignees that it is
probable another dividend of ten per
cent, or more will be declared, making tbe
total forty per cont., at least. It wonld
have been more had not the settlement of
the estate been delayed by law snits, and
the property been in oonsequence de
preciated in value.
Matrimonial.
Last night in tbe Catholio Church, Mr.
S. J. Hoffmann, of the firm of Profume A
Hpffmann, and Miss Mary T. Dolan were
married, Father W. J. Hamilton officiat
ing. The attendants were P. J. Clarke
and Miss B. Dolan, and J. H. Connor and
Miss V. Hoffman. A pleasant reception
was given et the residence of Mr. Dolan.
Joy attend them.

Every good citizen endorses it aud
will do all in his power to make it a suc

been remove! bnt tbe military companies
will guard the euclosure. A number of
young gentlemen are already praoticing to
ride. It is thought quite a handsome sum
will be realized. Then let this ba followed
by fairs and festivals. With proper work
on tbe part of tbe ladies several thousand
dollars will be realized. They have now
over 91,090 on hand. Work is required
if we would have a Confederate monu
ment in Columbus. Atlanta already has
one, and Augusta and Savannah have the
money with whioh to ereot one in each
city.
THE SUNDAY ENQUIRES,
With the New Year we sepirate tbe SUNDAY ENQUIRER from the DAILY.
This was a naeaaaity, from tha feet that many hundreds ware taking the SUNDAY
that did not taka the Dailt, and it was bnt right that they should have a journal that
visited them but onoe a week, sup trior to tha Dailx. On this paper we
largely risk the financial anooess of oar enterprise, and this being tbe case we pro
pose to incite it in every way worthy of popalar support, and the beet advertising me
dinm in the land.
Wa do not dream of rapid fortune or unexpected success. Long years of bard,
determined work, with one great objeot in view are absolutely essential io win. ai
the reqnisitee of energy,however, wonld be nnavailing as steam without practical ma
chlncry, if we did not mska a paper that oommended itself to the pnbllo and in whose
pages each subscriber felt he was more than compensated for his trifliog investment.
Knowing this wo propose to make the SUNDAY ENQUIRER the beat family paper
in the 8outb.
ITS DEPARTMENTS.
One serial STORY of merit and thrilling interest will be found In the colnmni
of the SUNDAY ENQUIRER. Three stories, at least, each a volume in itself, and
written expressly for this paper, will be published during the year. Eaoh story *u
ba worth the subscription prioe of the paper.
General Literature,
Poetry, oirginel and selected, will be found in the appropriate oolumne. At
least two hundred poems, raffioient to make a large volume, will be published during
