Tuesday morning about one o'olork did
considerable damage. Tbe whole amount

as follows:
Robert Carter's stock of drugs is Insur
ed in tbe Georgia Home of this oily for
$1,500 and in the Southern Mutual, Ath

$8,000. It is thought that the insuranoe
will cover losses.

that his loss is all of $2,000 above tbe in

RAILROAD.
In purscanoe to an order from tbe Ex
ecutive Department, all of the property
of this road was sold yesterday noon at
the depot on the north commons. Major
Moses, for the Atlanta and Columbus Air
Line Company, pnrobased it at $40,500.
It was started by bim at $10,000. Tbe
next bid was $16,000. In the higher
thousands it went up by five dollars. The
Central Itailroad, represented by Mr. Mil
ieu, of Savannah, was the competitive
bidder, and oarried it within a few dollars
of the amount at whioh the road sold.
Tbe property embraoed twenty-one
miles of completed narrow gange road,
one engine, passenger train and a number
of freight cars.
It was the impression tbe Marietta A
North Georgia Bsilroad Company was
represented at the sale.
Trains will continue to run, at least,
for tbe next thirty days, as usual, under
the present management.
During the sale, Mr. Millen, the brother-
in-law of President Wadley, was told he
might have the road if he would run it,
but he shook his head, implying, it was
thought, if be purchased, the rails would
be removed elsewhere.

OorERNOR COLQUITT’S ADDREBB.
He made a “talk 1 of about one-half
hoar in length, to a large num
ber of citizens and farmers, assembled
in tbe Opera House yesterday morning.
He said that, very contrary to his expec
tations, it had been announced that he
was to address the people. The subjeot
of his remarks was a oontrast between the
farmers of the present day and those in
the days of yore—fifteen and twenty
years ago. # Now farmers' hearts were
filled with fears, doubts and troubles on
acoonnt of liens, mortgages, Ao.; then
they bad dear oonscienoee, owed no one
and could meet everybody with open
countenances and always rested quietly
when they lay down to sleep. The good
old times have gone when a man would
ride two hundred miles to meet bis obli
gation, and now one has to bant another
down. He regretted to see that the true
principles of Southern manhood were
being destroyed and transplanted by
other and “foreign ideas." The “swing-
ing limb is now of great utility to the
farmers, with their empty oornoribs, when
formerly the horse of the visiting neigh
bor was, vi et armie, plaoed in the stable
and fed bountifnlly without the doubtful
interrogations, “Won’t you have your
horse pnt up ?”
Tbe wife now, on acoonnt of pinching
want, is not rejoioed to have her friends
stay days or weeks, but feels embarrassed
when the neighbor takes only one meal.
Southern hospitality is on the wane, and
mothers should instill tbe “old psinoi-
ples" into tbe minds and hearts of their
obildren that t|)ey may be preserved and
used forever. All that is necessary to
remedy the evil is for the farmer to make
bis supplies at home. Many still do this,
and they have happy families as a conse-
quenoe.
It had been said that he was in opposi
tion to and prejudiced against all indus
tries save that of farming. He felt a like
interest in every calling, but considered
farming the foundation of all of them,
and, consequently, possessed great anxie
ty about its advancement. He did not
propose to antagonize the Grangers to
any industry or oalling whatsoever. His
only aim was to make agriculture, tbe
foundation of all progress, prosper in all
of its departments. There was never an
exception that when and where the farm
ers were suooeaeful, then and there every
other department of business thrived.

ANSWER TO BTAM'B LETTER.
Columbus, Ga., September 4, 1877.
Editors Enquirer-Bun:
In a late leans of the Times appeared
a latter copied from the Atlanta Consti
tution, which seems to have been written
to that paper from this city by a visitor to
Columbus, signing himself “Syam.” The
letter is beaded “The City of Spindles,"
and one would imagine from this that the
writer was going to enlighten the readers
of the Constitution on tbe manufacturing
interests of Columbus. A casual perusal of
what “Syam" has written shows at onoe
that his object was to dilate upon the
appointment of Mr. Hilliard to
the Brazilian ministry. While this
is evidently tbe main objeot of
the letter, the writer at the sami
time expatiates upon the election of Mr,
Hillaird to the Presidency of the Bose-
mont Social Olnb, and enlarges on
what that gentleman did towards causing
tbe Club to “grow in interest and become
an objeot of sooial importance.” To
touob it all off and show np a flush hand,
“Byam" indulges in many rhetorioal
flourishes and high sounding phrases
about the dilapidated suburban residences
of Oolnmbns, and especially that of the
late Col. Seaborn Jones. Of this old
homestead be says, among other things,
that “the solemn genius of ruin bad laid
his ruthless band upon all tbe plaoe.” In
another portion of the letter appears this
sentence: “Along the beautiful drives
of this antiquated little oity there are
many other instanoes of splendid man
sions deserted and going to ruin.” To
read “Syam’a” latter one would Imagine
that Columbus was dwelling in ruins and
that a deserted graveyard was preferable
to its dreary abodes. As for the Jones
residence it stands in tbe oorner of one of
tbe most thrifty and beautiful farms in
Muscogee. Its owner, a connection of
the Jones family, into whose bands it
passed, has always seen that it was occu
pied and looked after. In a,stone's throw
of it,.and just across the road, lies “Bonny
Doon”farm, another model farm bespeak
ing thrift and industry. Tbe wife of its
proprietor is a grand-daughter of Col.
Jones, and she dwells in sight of the home
of her childhood, and, strange to say, feels'
no such alarm as fell to the “religious,
but not superstitions” lot of “Syam,”
whose blood thrilled with horror at seeing
a rabbit run aoross the yard and bearing
a wbippowill in thq adjacent grove. As
for other desertad iRSSiSiopa, “Syam’’

evidently drew <m bis imagination.
‘Syam,” very oorreoily, says that the
Bosemont Sooial Club “is one of the
established social features of the oity;”
but he misses the figure when be says
that Mr. Hilliard, on ooming here, was
solicited to become President, and on bis
doing so the club grew in interest and
importance.
The Bosemont Club was organized in
September, 1875, at tbe suggestion of
Mrs. James Cook. This lady threw open
her hospitable and beautiful home as the
place of meeting for the club. On its
first assembling she was elected President
and Mr. J. M. Bussell vioe-Preaident.
These offloers remained in offloe for a
year and a half, and six months ago on
their declining to be re-eleoted, Mr. Hil
liard, who had always been attending the
club was obosen President. The offloe is
a nominal one—the club has been kept
up by the interest of its young mem
bers, Mr. Hilliard's family among
the number who contributed no little to
Is success. As to Mr. Hilliard’s appoint
ment we have nothing to say. “Syam”
evidently wrote his letter in order to tell
us that the Brazilian -mission was not
seoond class and that the appointment
was not made through Col. Mott’s influ
ence. The mission to Brazil is certainly
a fat offloe—paying its inoumbent twelve
thousand dollars per annum. Yet the
English, German, Frenoh and Bussian
missions rank over it. They oan be class
ed as one pleases, bnt the four last nam
ed always fall on top and Brazil oomes
among tbe seoond.
Everybody knows how Mr. Hilliard got
tbe appointment as foreign minister. His
raoe against the regular Democratic nom
inee in the late Congressional election
brought him into a sort of nondescript
political position, and as he ranked as an
independent Demooratio-Bepublioan Con
servative he was the fittest man in all the
South to fill Hays’ bill in oarrying out his
Southern polioy; and we are glad that Mr.
Hilliard realized his hopes. He is emi
nently qualified for a foreign minister
His broad outturn, knowledge of diplo
macy and bearing as a thorough gentle
man will enable him to properly repre
sent ns in so great a government as Bra
zil.
■'Syam," in hia letter, misrepresented
Mr. Hilliard and misrepresented Oolum.
bus. In justioe to all parties, we think
his statements should be corrected. We
are not a mass of ruin and desolation in
this section of Georgia, but, on the con
trary, are building up and recuperating
from the direful effeots of the late war.
Letters Buoh as “Syam” wrote and pub
lished in suoh a widely circulated paper
as tbe Constitution will do us harm. The
next time “Syam” visits us we trust that
he will, if he writes to newspapers, curb
his imagination, shorten his pen, lay aside
family prejudices, deal in faots and sign
his name forward instead o( backward.

Lippincott's Magazine.—The predomi
nant flavor of -Lippincott’s Magazine for
September might be oslled Italian, seeing
that there is an illustrated paper (“A Pa
duan Holiday”) by Obarlott Adams, ■
translation from Edmondo de Amiois (“A
Great Day”), and an interesting sooonnt
of the dramatist Carlo Gozzi (“A Venetian
of the Eighteenth Geutury”) by H. M.
Benson. Mr. Howard M. Jenkins bases
on s contemporary narrative, preanmably
by a Quaker eye-witness, a disoription of
tbe battle of Brandywine, whose oentena-
xy ooonrs next week. The story is well
told, but deserved a sketoh-map of the
field. On some acoouuts the anonymona
biography of Madame Patterson-Bona-
parte is the most attractive artiole in the
present number. It is, in fact, almost an
autobiography, and when the writer says
that “Mme. Bonaparte relates,” we are
perhaps favored with an extraot from her
diary, whioh it is hinted may some day bs
published. Moat of the sneodotes about
herself are flattering to ber former beauty
and esprit, as is altogether pardonable
in a nonagenarian. Of her hus
band Jerome she sayB: “He loved me to
tbe last; he thought me the babdsomeBt
woman in tbe world, and tho most oharm-
ing." Aaron Burr called her “aobarmiDg
little woman, ... by some thought
too free”; Mias Berry reported to Horace
Walpole that she was “exceedingly pretty
without graoe, aud not at all shy”; Mme.
de Stael pronounced ber “bien, bien
jolie”; and tbe unole of Jerome's seoond
wife conceded graoe, beauty, aud wit to
tbe diBoarded Americaine. Jerome him-
self, meeting her twenty years after his
abandonment of her, was overcome by
ber loveliness while failing to reoognize
ber. His enquiry who she was, waa an
swered by her aucoessor, who was with
him at the time (they were in the Pitti
Palace), and for a moment the two wives
confronted eaoh other. The prinoess of
Wuitemberg “evinced always the utmoBt
interest in ber predecessor,” and treated
with maternal kindness “Mme. Patter
son’s son, who had been sent for to oome to
Borne by Jerome. She “went two leagues
to meet bim, and taking hiB faoe between
ber bands said tearfnily, ‘Ah! moo en
fant, je auis la oause innooente de
tons vos malhenrs.’ ” Jerome ig
nored bis son in his will, whiob
Mme. Bonaparte vainly contested. Her
grandson, Captain Bonaparte, received
from Napoleon III. an annuity of six
thousand dollars, whioh terminated only
with the Empire. Among tbe interesting
obaraoterizations of distinguished person
ages whom Mme. Bonaparte met while
she resided abroad, those of her mother-
in-law and sisters-in-law, whom she first
saw at Borne, are perhaps the beat worth
quoting: The former “was not tall; fea
tures like ber great son ; fine mournful
eyes; a manner touohing and majestic.
She waa then very devote. Pauline was
empty-headed, selfish, and vain, oared
only for laxary, bat in every line exquisite
as Oanova’s statue represents her. Hor-
tense was not really handsome—irregular
features, a wide mouth exporing the
gums and defective teeth, a blemish in
bar mother, whose faultiest Agora, kindly
nature, nnd oaraeaing manner ehe »i« in
herited. She was lovely nt the harp, and
sang hsr own romances in a swast voice.”
