Georgia’i Railroad Men.
There are only seven railroads in the
South which pay dividends. Of these, six
are in Georgia, and the seventh is the
Richmond and Petersburg Railroad of
Virginia, the Superintendent of which,
Col. A Shaw, is a Georgian by birth and
raising, though a Virginian by adoption.
This speaks well for Georgia’s railroad
sons.

And still his customers increase from all
directions. They buy their dry goods of
him so cheap and return home and spread
the news so far and wide that he always
has a rush. “Bargains at Jones’ ” is pro
verbial and it is astonishing how rapidly
he is selling. His patronage increases
daily from the fact that those who deal
with him, in purchasing their bills, find
that they get every thing at extremely low
rates, and it is this that makes them get
items from every line in his ’stock and
thus keep it well assorted. Remember
that he will not offer such opportunities
after he will have disposed of his present
stock. He is only preparing for his fall
and winter goods which he will buy very
extensively.

Muscogee County Lands,
According to the tax returns, the land
in Muscogee county is valued at six and
one-sixth dollars per acre in 1877; six j

shows a decrease in valuation of one and
three-sixths dollars per acre in two years.

The Muscogee Rifles.
They turned out last afternoon with
twenty-six guns. They were dressed in
their new uniforms and presented a very
handsome appearance. They were put
through a thorough course of drilling, on
Reich’s green by Captain Crawford. See
ing this splendid company composed of
skilled laborers and moving in perfect
order, even our neighbors of the Times
would be convinced they are as we have
described them citizen-soldiers of the
better class. No trace of the tramp, thief
or robber, as the Times will insist charac
terizes our manufacturing population, can
be found in these gallant men. We wish
we had more such companies composed of
the yeomanry of the land,and many thous
ands of operatives with mills to supply al*
with constant work at renumerative prices*
The Times can discover no indications of
its tramps among our working people, or
their representatives in the citizen-soldiery
of the better class. The Times must
search elsewhere for vagrants and incen
diaries.
N ON-DIGESTIBLE.
We have often heard it said that an ali-
gator conld fill himself with pine knots,
digest them and live all of the winter.
There may be the faintest traces of truth
in this, as there is probably some nutric-
ious vegetable matter contained in the
wood ; but we do believe that earth or a
silicious body (and that the latter, too,
having gone through the fiery farnace
and the baking process), could be worked
upon to the great satisfaction of any set
of intestines. Rushing on to our subject
with doubting step it is with trepidation
and fear that we announce to
the American people that a
chicken snake in Summerville,
Alabama, swallowed a China egg a
day or two ago. Instinct directs brutes,
and reason, both intuitive and discursory,
steers humans, but we can’t see how this
groveling creature could have taken in
this morsel had he the intellect of a Solon,
Plato, Caesor, a modern statesman, can.-
didate for county office, or any other tal
ented individual. Why that snake never
will get rid of that Chinn ware by any pos
sible means. The creature certainly act
ed without thinking, and many hours will
it spend in painful meditation, “drawing
its slow length along” upon an aching
belly.
WESTERN RAILROAD ITEMS.
A change of schedule takes effect
to-day. The mail and passenger trains
on the main line will run through from
Selma, Ala., to West Point, Ga. The
freight and accommodation trains will
run between this point and Montgomery.
The change does not effect the Columbus
division, in respect to time, but it does,
materially, as to accommodation, having
nothing but a second rate car for all classes
to ride in. This is the regular train for the
Atlanta travel, going and returning. As
for mail accommodations, they have none,
for the train sent over on this new sched
ule. If the traveling public can’t have
a voice in this matter, we hope the Super
intendent of the R. M. S. will look to
their interest and see, also, that the Route
Agent in charge of the Eastern and
Northwestern mails that leave this point,
has comfortable quarters, in which to do
his work, and compel the Master of Trans
portation for the Western Railroad Com
pany to keep it there. We dislike to find
fault, but will enter our complaint so long
as this continues. Feed.
Mr. Kivlia Gelt a Severe Fall,
Yesterday, while Mr. James Kivlin was
crossing the street near the Rankin
House, a runaway horse came dashing up
behind him. \s the animal passed a
part of a broken shaft struck Mr. Kivlin
above the knees with such force as to
knock his legs from under him, and giv
ing him a severe fall. Mr. K. was se
verely braised and stunned. He was
taken into the store of Mr. Harrison,
where restoratives were applied and he
sufficiently recovered to be taken home.
Mr. Kivlin is 84 years of age and very
feeble and it is feared the accident wil*
prove serious, which will be regretted by
his many friends. We trust the accident
will not prove as serious as reported and
that a few days will find our old friend
again upon the streets.

It will be noticed that valuations have

has been attending to the clerical depart
ment of the office during the many years
his father held the position, which was
some three years, and the present digest
attests his integrity and ability. The re
turns are far higher than it was thought
t hey would be, and the whole has depend
ed upon the zeal and fidelity of his father
and Mr. J. T. Thweatt.
In a few days we hope to give the agri

Br MATT O B.
If I should die to night,
I wonder what’d be seid
When the town was told on the morrow
“••••• is dead 1”
Thinking thus, “I lay me down,"
And, praying ‘-my Vul to keep,”
Though not on a bed of down,
I soon was sound asleep.
I dreamed—oh, such a dream 1
I dream -d that I was lead ! !
And Rnmor, with a scream,
Ran out the news to spread.
Charity was the fi-st she met,
And Charity wiped her eye,
Saying, **I much regret
That he so soon should die.”
Religion next was told,
And was asked if I were known,
Religion her arms did fold,
And answered with a moan :
“We had missed him fur many years,
And our hearts with sorrow burned :
But j iy took the pi :ce of tears
When at last he repented—returned.”
Society next was informed :
She shrugged h r shoulders and eaid :
“To our rules he never conformed,
Still—I'm sorry—yes I’m sorry he’s dead.”
Art was sorry—but “she’d no acquaintance
With the party that Rumor had missed ;
And though he’d tried to scrape an acquaintance
ghe could not at the grave assist.’
Business was next interviewed ;
And when told of my loss of breath,
Said, “1 hough ’twist us ahvjys c fend,
We had nothing 10 do with his death.”
To Music Dame Rnmor went next,
Thinking, “There he'll sympathy find!”
But he answered (not oee bit perplexed) :
“Ah I I’ve thousands alive of his kind 1”
When to Riches the old dame went
t-he said that "the d du’t care ;
She was busy (with her psr cent,,)’’
And bowed ltumor out with a stare.
When Pleasure was told cf hi. fate,
She stopped for a moment her smilo,
And said : “Though not with us Of 'ate,
Be sevred many an hour to beguile,
We’d like to show our respect
.For one that we knew well and hearty.
But to go to his grave you couldn’t expect;
Besides, to-niglit, we give a big party,”
Then to Poverty’s dwelling she went;
But so poor were the people in there,
That to grief they couldn’t give vent,
And only one or two offerod a prayer.
When the Drama was to’d, “lie’s dead!”
The manuger gave quito a start,”
Then turned 10 his prompter and said :
“Well, we’ve plenty can play his part!”
Then next t’was told to each city.
And called “One of those telegraph capers!”
People read a> d quick said t’was a pity
They put such trash in the papeis!”
The funeral came off in the morning—
The mourner was solemn and grave ;
Only Trouble was there, anil in mourniDg,
And he followed me down to the grave.
The first clod of Potter's field dirt
Hardly struck on the pine box head.
When 1 awoke with a feeling of pRin,
And found J had fell out o' bed !
But I could not help thinking right there
How lifelike it all did seem ;
We may think the world will miss us,
But the worid is just like—Mr Break !
The Taj Maliul.
The Rev. W. R. Algeria “Friendships of Wo
men.”]
Still more costly honors than Artemisia
lavished 00 her Mansolenm did the great
mogal, Shah Jehan, pay to his idolized
wife, Moomtaza Mahal. She died in 1631
in giving birth to a daughter. Shah Je-
han’s love for this exquisite being appears
to have been supreme and ineffaceable.
After her death he at once set bis archi
tects at work, with 29,000 laborers, to
build a memorial worthy of her loveliness
and of bis grief. For twenty-two years
they toiled, when, at a cost equivalent to
$20,000,000 now, unveiled from every dis
figuring accompaniment, rose on the
banks of the clear, blue Jumma at Agra,
where it still stands to enchant the soul
of every traveler who approaches the Taj
Mahul, the most exquisite building on the
globe; an angelic dream of beauty,
materialized and translated to earth.
It is a romance at once of Oriental royalty,
of marriage, and of the human heart, that
the UDrivaled pearl of architecture in all
the world should thus be a tomb reared
over the body of his wife by the proudest
monarch of the East. The quadrangle in
which the structure stands is 964 feet one
way and 329 the other. The area around is
laid out in parterres, planted with flowers,
blossoming shrobs, and cypresses, inter
laced by rows of babbling fountains and
avennues paved with freestone slabs.
The mausoleum itself, the terrace, and
the minarets, are all formed or the finest
white marble, and thickly inlaid with pre
cious stones. The funeral vault is a mir
acle of coolness, softness, splendor, ten
derness, and solemnity. Fergusson, the
historian of architecture, says : “No
words can express the chastened beauty
of that central chamber—the most grace
ful and the most impressive of all the se
pulchres cf the world.”
Russell, in his “Dairy in India,” thus
records the impression the scene made on
him : “Write a description of the Taj ?
As well write a description of that lovely
dream which flushed the poet’s cheek
or gently moved the painter’s hand as he
lay trembling with delight—the Endymion
of the glorious art-goddes3, who reveals
herself and then floats softly away among
the moonbeams and the dew-clouds as he
sgrings up to grasp the melting form.
Here is a dream in marble—the Taj; solid,
permanent. It is wrong to call it a dream
in marble ; it is a thought, an idea, a con
ception of tenderness. Where it stands in
its astonishing perfection, rising from its
lofty platform of marble of dazzling white
ness—minarets, dome, portals all Bhining
like a fresh, crisp snow-wreath. The exqui
site screens of marble in the windows,
the porches, the arched doorways, from
which a shower of fleecy marble mingled
with a rain of gems, seems about to fall
on you. The solid walls, melting and
glowing with tendrils of bright flowe*,
and wreaths of agate, jasper, cornelians
ameteyst, snatched, as it were, from the
garden outside and pressed into the snowy
blocks. Enter by the doorway in front,
the arched roof of the cnpola
soars above you, and the light
falls dimly on the shrine-like tombs in
the centre of the glistening marble. Seel
a winter palace, whose glacial walls some
gentle hand has buried the last flower of
autumn. ”

most reliable remedy for the relief of

Atlanta, Augnst 10, 1877.—The Con

Jeokins this morning at the usual hour.
Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Hamil
ton, of the Forty-second District. The

Messrs. Barrow, Wright, Wofford, Wal

To Render the Fiver Active
When that Important secretive gland requires
arousing. It Is only requisite to resort to Hos
tetter’s Stomach Bitters, the national remedy
for Inactivity of the bilious organ, tor consti
pation, and for dyspepsia, besides those mala
rious disorders to which torpidity of the liver
predisposes a person. Far more surely does
this celebrated anti-biliou9 cordial accomplish
a curative result than mercury or any other
mineral drug used to cure liver disorders. In
fact, such medicaments cannot fairly be called
remedies, since, although they may have a
temporary effect, they eventually fail to in
fluence the system remedially, but instead
often do it serious injury. The Bitters, on the
contrary, are a specific of the most salutary
nature, and are likewise a reliable and agree
able tonic, appetizer and nervine.

has so rapidly followed their introduction is
evidence that they do supply this want, and
proves them to be

THE MOST POPULAR PUL
ev’er furnished the American people. The high
est medical authorities concede their superiority
over all others, because they possess alterative,
tonic, and healing properties contained in no
other medicine. Being strongly Anti-Bilious,
they expel all humors, correct a vitiated state of
the system, and, being purely vegetable, they
do not, like other pills, leave the stomach and
bowels in a worse condition than they found
them, but, on the contrary, impart a healthy
tone and vigor before unknown.
