The company have certainly oara enough, and aa in the oaae tbia morning aome lady paa- aengera had to go into the front part of the oar whioh haa been partitioned off for the oolored people and amokerg. We truly hope that the management of the Weatern Railroad Company will guard againat auoh poor aooommodetiona through reapeot for the oomfort and feel ings of the female portion of the travel ing publio. The Oipaiea have pitohed their tent near Smith'll Station, and are ready to tell for tunes and swap horsea. Fine rains fell yesterday between Smith’s Station and Columbua. Tho Cargill-Laalag Arbitration. Laat Saturday Mr. John Cargill’s two- mule team, whioh always in their playful ness are inolined not to hold back going down hill, got the start of Ihe driver going down to the wharf, from the Mobile and Oirard Railroad bridge. The driver in trying to atop them broke hia lines and they ran to the bottom of the hill and atopped. Aa we understood our inform ant, aome one then threw a briok at the mulea and caused them to “dash” a second time. They ran against a Mr. Lesley's buggy, upset it and broke all of the wheels. The damaged party claimed in demnity, and it waa left to the arbitration of two persona. Hr. Cargill chose Jndge J. F. Pou and Mrs. Lesley, or her aon, who was in charge of the buggy, seleoted Captain 0. A. Redd. The arbitrators did not agree and they, aa waa understood in the premises, decided to bring in a third man. The day set apart for the second sitting will be next Saturday two weeks. The law bearing on tbia ia, aa we have been informed, that a man who will drive out a horse or horsea knowing them to be vioiona runaways is liable for any damages that may be inflioted. Mr. Car* gill's mulea were not thought by hia arbi trator to oome under thia law. TBM UNHBT^LRD QVBttION. Thaae unsettled questions existed sines tbs Age of Man, end tbs time that be dis covered the fixed laws imparted to Cos mos by the Originator. It has been upon these, that ia investigations arising there from, that Science has advanced. Uelllleo Invented the telseoope in 1609, bet curious humanity, eager to see fur ther than with thia simple instrument, clamored for something more powerful. At last Lord Boeee, In 184S, completed hia four ton telescope with a speculum six feet in diameter. The thirsty after knowledge were not satiefied with being warm, but desired to know how warm it was; so Farenheit and Reaumur got it down to a aeals by whioh one might tell whether or not the blood was boiling. Newton was a grave man, but, being avaricious, be was not satisfied with his own gravity and sought to gain that the Creator had given to the falling apple. However,by parenthesis, and not meaning to digress, the gravity of the apple inves tigated the velocity with whioh the falling pear (Pair) traveled. The eye of man discovered that some points ware higher than others and they had to know the dlffsrenoe of lsvsl with out digging a hole in the earth or pulling down a hill or mountain, so the theodolite waa invented. This, however, has not been brought Into requisition to settle the question as to HOW HUGH HIOHla Broad atreet ia than the water in the Obattabooobee, and some are very muob troubled to find it out. It waa suggested by one that a long pole be made ao long and erected in the river that the top of it may strike the level of Broad atreet; then measure the pole and you have it. An other mathematician, “ao to apeak,” being better versed in Aoouatioa than Hum boldt, Qay Luasao and others, who deter mined the velooity of sound to be 1,118 feet per second, suggested that if any one were anxious to determine the matter, it could be very easily done by some one going into the mouth of a sewer emptying into the river, and yelling to a man listen ing with an ear trumpet through a plug on Brood street. Henoe, knowing the pitoh and tone of the voioe, the velocity of sound per seoond, the amount of sense the fellows making these calculations have and the difference of level of the two points, the question would be settled. We give the above aa we beard it on the corner of two prosperous grocery merchants, and if it offered no enlighten ment to the man who says meui liber eat men vita allot to him who liveth upon and tbiratetb after knowledge, all that we have to say ia that it was summer discus sion. If they had asked Mr. Basa, who sur veyed the locations, and aaoertained the levels exaotly, * they would have saved many words and warmer feelings, and the question would not have remained un settled.

TMB LATE JO»U MW Capitol Boilddm, \ Moxtooxxxt, Ala., July 10,1877.) At a meeting of the Bupreaae Court Bar held at the Cepitol thia morning, in tbs Supreme Court Library, for the purpose of paying tribute to the late Hon. Fern M. Wood, of Opelika, tha following pro- oeedings were bad: _ On motion of Attorney General Sand- ford, Judge John T. Heflin, of Talladega, was oalled to preside over the masting, and F. B. Clark, jr., of Mobile, wasohoeen Secretary. Hon. Leroy F. Box, of St. Olair, then offered tbs following resolu tions expressive of the sentiments of the meeting, whioh were unanimously adopt ed: Whereas, the members of tbs bar of the Supreme Oqprt have heard with profound sorrow of the death of Hon. Fern M Wood, and whereas, the aouteoeaa and breadth of his intellect, his enthusiastic devotion to, and study of hia profession aa a eoi- enoe, and his fine abilities had distin guished him as a jurist, while his kind na ture and genial manners endeared him to all bia brethren, and whereas, although bla life was recklessly terminated in the very midst of hia usefulness, the etrenu- oua exertion of hia vigorous faculties had attained a reputation which will long be oherlabsd by hie countrymen; therefore belt ■ Resolved, That in the death of Fern Manley Wood, the bar haa lost one of its able, and moat useful members; society one of ite brightest ornaments, and the State an honored oitixen, whose life and services have oonduoed to her welfare and renown. Resolved, That the earner of him, whose death we deplore, furnishes to the young men of our oountry an example of Integrity, of well direoted energies, and of fearless enoounter with all the vioiesi - aitudea of the worlk. worthy of their ap proval and earnest imitation. Resolved, That in deelaring be dis- ohaged his whole duly, both in pesos aad In war, aa a oitixen, a member of the bar, and as a friend, wa pronounoe s high and justly deaetved eulogtumon tha lamented deed. Resolved, That the Attorney General I iresent these resolutions to tha Supreme Court, with tbs request that they be spread on its minutes, and that he prooure them to be inserted in the Revised Code of Alabama. Resolved. That a copy of these reso lutions be tendered to the family of tha deceased, with the eeroeat assurance of our sympathy in their great bereavement. BIMABXS op ATTOXBXT OXMXBAL SAHPOBD presenting to the Supreme Court the resolutions of the bar relative to the death of the Hon. Fern M. Wood May it pleate the Court: It ia ouatomaiy when a Inember of our profession dies for the survivors to meet tad adopt resolutions commemorative of his talenta, his learning and hia virtues. During the laat three years it haa been the misfortune of the Court to witness the observanoe of this ouatom, upon sev eral occasions. Sometimes the ceremony haa elpressed the disappointment of hopea inspired by young men, who had given promise of oellenoe, but the fulfillment of wbiob death had prevented. At other times, it haa been the solemn utterance of deep sorrow over the untimely death of those who had labored muob, and suffered muob, and aohieved great things; of those whose qualities of noble eitixenship had won the confidence of, and endeared them to, all their oonntrymen. One of these, struggling upward, had reaohed a high position—the summit of his profes sional ambition—a place npon the benoh of the Supreme Court of Alabama, and thenee, with all bis glory undimmed, stepped easily into the skies. But the cireumstanoes attending the death of none of them were ss aad as those surrounding the laat days of the Hon. Fern M. Wood. These are well known, and it is unneosasary now to re late them. He waa neither so young as not to have met the difficulties and borne the burdens of a lawyer’s life; nor ao old as to have effected all that hia foroe and abilities oould accomplish. He had fait the anx iety and weariness that wait upon the la borious task of daily bread; but he bad known also the joy that comes from the ■alneaer Abbey. The Jerusalem Chamber tteslf, though an nnprateatlous building alike in Us external appearance and Its internal Mr- external appaatanea ran gem ant, iteonnei in the history of S whioh tha grant dramatiet of English literatus haa raodasnd famous forever, the other of whieh has exacted an lnflueooa on all Engliah-epsaking nations each aa is simply inoalenlabte. Here it was that Henry IY. coming np to Loudon, covered with a hideous leprosy, and almost bant double with pein and weakness, laid him down to die. It waa, apparently, the only mom in the Abbey whioh had oonvsnianeaa fa* a fire. It waa tba early spring; tha Abbey itself waa chilly: and to (ho Janus' Chamber the King was eartied by attendants, and * c before the greet joining that affecting spirts a, and there laid upon a pallet fire-plaoe.
