Tax Collevlorshtji—Contest Actually Rs-
gun.
Yesterday the coutest for tho Tax Col-
leotorahip of this county actually begun
before Justice MoCahey, in the Grand
Jury room in the Court House. Mr. Pea
body appeared aa counsel for Mr. L. G.
Burrus, and Hlandford So Garrard tor Mr.
D. A. Andrews. Messrs. Thomas G.
Coleman and Eli Saudetford, two of the
managers, wars examined regarding the
Columbus vote. They testified that it
waMair as far as they knew; that no bal
lot was allowed in the city unless the
voter was on the paid tax list, exhibited a
tax raeeipt or was sworn ; thut the tickets
were mixed in one box by general con
sent, supposing there would be no contest.
We are informed that in four county pre
cincts Hi votes oast were claimed us illegal
for Cleghorn, 14 for Klink, 111 for'Burrus
and 104 for Andrews, making a total vote
of 147 ; and that it remains to be shown
whether tbeso votes were illegal. Their
namea are not on the tax books. Our un
derstanding is that Mi. Burrus first en
deavors to establish proofs, then the
opposite party disproves if it can. The
one receiving the greatest number of legal
votes, be ho Andrews, Klink, Burrus or
Cleghorn, will l.e declared eleoted by the
Governor, who gives the final decision.
Such at loast is onr information. All are
ospable men.
Nanoe'a preoinot and the oily remain to
ba examined. We heard the result of the
examination yesterday was to put Klink 19
ahead, but It is too early to know any
thing of the result.
Killing Cows.
Another oow was killed and Bkinned
Wednesday night. This time the occur
rence happened on the north oommous,
near the residence of Dr. N. J. Bussey.
The hide and head were left behind. This
ia the aeeond oow which has been killed
on the commons in tho last six days.
Owners will learn after awhile to keep
their animals up at night.
•MARBLE HEART TO-HI OUT
Benefit of the Memorial AesoctsUion.
The E. B. Brown Dramatio Company,
by speeial request of the Ladies' Memorial
Aaiocistion, have consented to remain iu
Columbus this end to-morrow nigbls
and play for the purpose of erecting a
monument In Oolnmbns to the Confeder
ate Dead. The company is a most excel
lent one. By attending and bringing
your family and friends you aid a cause
you love and get value for your money in
a first-class entertainment.
The play selected for to-night is the
“Marble Heart," one of tho most elegant
and best acting in the language. Hunt-
ley is very superior in the rendition of
the leading character, the aculpter. Lot
all come out, no matter whether they de
sire a Confederate monument or not.
The money will bn placed in the bands of
the honored ladies of the Memorial Asso
ciation, who will use it to the best advan
tage. All oan trust to their discretion,
and by all aiding a splendid sum can be
realized.
Reserved seats can be secured at Chaf
fin's book store to-day, at n dollar e&cb,
Tickets can also be obtained at the stores
of Bedell Sc Ware, Abell & Co., E. E.
Yonge, J. J. Whittle, R. Carter’s drug
store, Watt & Walker, John Connor,
Thomas & Prescott and Joseph & Bro.
The ladies are requested to meet this
morning at the residence of Mrs. Patten,
aorner of St. Clair and Oglethorpe streets,
at 9} o’clock, and be distributed into Ward
Committees, so as to thoroughly canvass
the city for the sals of tickets. Such
tickets oan be secured at Bedell & Ware's.
Now is the time for the ladies to act. By
personal solicitations, they can largely
awell the receipts. They should work
faithfully, speedily and together, and eaoh
bny a ticket. A large aum can be ob
tained by individual exertions. Show
that now you are as capable of solf-saeri-
flee as you were during the war.
The theatre ia to be under the entire
oontrol of a committee of gentlemen, ap
pointed by the Memoiial Association.

the committee will find themselves in

many of the other cities. Numbers of

-Shout that Dog Story.
After quoting the article that appeared
ia the local columns of this paper last
week about putting that dog out when
Januusobck was here, tho Montgomery
Morning Netct says:
A Morning New* subscriber in Colum
bus gets his back up on account of tbo
foregoing witty and clever satire, and
aaks ns to give Mr. DeVolie, the city edi
tor of the ENqoiBEn, “a blowing up" for
it, adding: “Our Germans hero uro much
aggravated by this mce of impudence,"
and atating that M*n Janauschok spoke
very plainly. Now, for the life of us, we
esn't aee why we should “go” for Mr. De-
Votie, just to please a few over-sensitive
Germans, who, owing to their ignorance
of American wit and humor, have mis-
conatraed the tendency of Mr. DeVotie's
excellent picture of the yallcr purp iu the
theatre. Thoro ia nothing in it at which
offonce ean be taken.
procured. It requirea more work, and
consequently more patriotism. Who
doubla now that the Library Ball receipts
would have been uiueb heavier had the
supper contributions been sold and the
proceeds united with the srdo of tickets.
Many a man had rather give moneydireot.
We merely suggest the plan. Very little
money is ever realized by balls. Twelve
hundred dollars were realized by subscrip
tion for Marshal Murphy’s family. The
ladies are laboring hard, and we will do
all in our power to add to their succei a.

The Railroad Criminal Escapes.
Among the six prisoners who escaped
from the jail in Union Springs, Alabama,
on Thursday week, was Adam Pitta, ool
ored, who was arrested by Officers Cash
and Robarta for placing obstructions on
the Mobile and Girard Railroad, in order
to throw the passenger train from the
traok, and thus prevent a Democratic
demonstration. None have been recov
ered. Custodians of our prisons eannot

Card from the Policemen of Columbus,
Columbus, Ga., Jan. 28th, 1874.
Major Calhoun: We, the undersigned,
police officers of thia city, request tho
uro of your columns tor the following
statement: At thiB time there are fifteen
men connected with Ihe police force of
Columbus, end out of this number twelve
were in tho Confederate army during the
war; one was too yonng to serve, another
was too old, and the third not in service
was at home in Ireland. The twelve sol
diers were good men, and did the fall
measure of their duty for the young Con
federacy. Nut one was ever accused of
on ward ice or neglect of duty, and their
fidelity in Ihe army they have made a
standard of their fidelity to law and order
since. In the trial of Bagley before
Judge Hill, at Maoon, Col, Blandford,
himself a good soldier, bo far forgot tha
past as a hero ns to state as a lawyer that
the polioe foroa of this oity diagraoed the
gray uniform which they wore; and he
further stated in bis zeal to clear his
client and make a few dollars, that Mar
shal Murphy was drunk when the Bag-
leys killed him, and that tbe police of Co
lumbus should be tried for murder, not
the Bagleys. Now Col. Blaudford means
to be truthful as be was brave, and all
who know him are award of bis strict ad
herence to truth, and his love for the ex-
soldiers of the Confederacy, Yet our
knowledge of Col. Blandford's ability, in
tegrity and courage, cannot prevent onr
opposition to the statement he made in
Maoon ; and believing he forgot himaelf
as a soldier in his zesl as a lawyer, we re
spectfully beg to say that tbe statement
is in no respect tree. We farther say
that the man who aocuses our dead chief
of having been drunk at the lime of his
murder niters an utter falsehood, if sober
biwsolf, and if he does it for money he
is cheaply bought.
Dtirii g the war we were true to our
country and never did we disgrace the
uniform we wore, as our records prove,
and since peace we have been true to onr
duties and the law of our tand. We
could say more, sir, but it is useless.
Mat Murphy's life is its own vindication.
Murderers, under the existing state of our
laws, might be saved, however, with
blackening his name or attempting to
degrade us aa officers by lying about ua
as soldiers.
Yours, truly,
Twz VE COLUMDUS POLICE OFFICERS.
“Article dt” Laet Night.
As we entered the Opera House test
night the door-keeper of Ben De Bar's
company was entsing the Southern people
end the quantity of people who had Oume
in on free tickets for tha use of bill
boards, etc. This wrb iu an undertone to
an associate. We never include news
paper men in the free list, for the proprie
tors and editors pay very dearly for wbat
they get. That door keeper was mad, and
said he had already tukon in fifty-two
free tickets, and later in tbe evening he
said he had received seventy-five. He
was mad. The agent of the show gave
them out. Tho audience was not large
—probably not more than $150 worth.
The oompany is a good one. They
dress well, and tha piece was mounted
well, and all was aoted smothly.
“Article 47” waa presented well. The
company is folly as good as tbe average
stock combaDiea in New York at the first
class theatres.
Mia I Ada Gray, in the part of Cora, was
in the main greatly admired. She ia un
questionably an actress of merit, and in
the first and tha head scene plays tbe part
perfectly. Wo should hate to have love
made as loudly to us as she did to her vie-
tim. In portions she displayed abilities
of a high order, and her dressing was
very rich.
The oue who portrsyed the character
of her cool, inaonoiant friend, Vie bis
friend called him, could not have been
surpassed. He was perfection in dress,
deportment and manner, end it was a re
gret when he disappeared. His friend
acted the gentlemanly drunk in an excel
sior manner. He didn’t commit a fanlt.
We would have sworn to bis intoxioation.
He has a splendid conception of “how are
you yunrself.”
Cora’s viotim personates the character
oreditably.
>v e have never seen the play bnt once
before,end having mislaid onr programme,
cannot recall the names of the actors.
The play, malgie aome Frenchisws
which hardly suits tbo taste of a Columbus
public, was admired, and many who had
seen it before in New York regretted that
many portions of the play ware ent short.
The company left last night by the
Western Alabama train.

Mayor’s Matinee Yesterday.
J. T. Hinton was up for being found in
Mr. Bramball’s back yard. He was really
arrested by Mrs. B. Ilia excuse was he
had been to a wedding, was very tight,
and was trying to get in the premises of
Mr. Wood, who lives next door, and was
afraid of the dog. To make a long story
short, he declares he didn't know where
he waa, and tbe Mayor fined him $7 50
for getting into suoh a condition as to be
ignorant of localities. A negro had just
fled from the yard, who had excited the
dogs, and thus aroused Mrs. B. He was
after chickens.
David Williams oud Joseph Johnson
were oharged with disorderly conduct.
Williams had come into a room where
musio was playiug, interfered by remarks
that he conld do better than tha band,and
provoked a quarrel. The Mayor required
him to pay five dollars for obtruding him
self on tbe oompany and commencing a
diltur banes.
