A ttlmple Plnn lo Purchau the Rond, nnd n Novel Proposition Well Worth Considering* Co-operative effort is the order of the day. It would seem that the various attempts to control the North A South Railroad by purchase and extension by our own citizens are all about to fail. Those who have the ability and means to take bold of the enterprise are loth to embark in the venturo. While all admit tho advantages which would re sult in the commercial prosperity of Columbus, few or none are willing to hazard the amount requisite to make the trial. Therefore the writer has de termined to suggest a plan which, to say the least, may be considered novel to many. Let those most deeply interested (and who among our real estate owners and business men is not?) organize a company consisting, say of 1,000 shares. For each share let a payment of two dollars per month he paid. Then let this organized company take 1,000 shares in the Mutual Loan Association, now in successful operation here. This would increase the share list of the Association to 2,200 shares — which would make the monthly sales of money 32,200, which would increase each month by reason of discounts and interest. The 1,000 shares thus taken would enable the company to purchase from time an advance on 3200,000, which at the prevailing rate of discount would it, say 3100,000, enough to pay for the purchase of the road nnd extend it to a point where it would begin to pay its expenses and probably make a surplus. The shareholders in the Company paying 32 per month would pay to the lose of the association, say 76 months, 3160 per share, for which they would receive stock in tho road. The Com pany would pay into the association for cadi share lakon 31 per month and reserve tho other 31 per month as a sinking fund to pay interest to the association, and the balance to be ex pended on the extension. Tho Company thus organized would reap tho benefits of any profit made by the association, and at the close of tho association the road would belong to tho Company, clear of any incumbrance. How many of our business men would bo willing to give, if need be, ten or twenty dollars per month for tho so- urity of having tho road owned and operatod in the interest of Columbus? If many of our citizens have been able by tho assistance of tho Asso ciations, heretofore and now in exist ence hero, to procure themselves com fortablo homos without tho outside as sistaneo, why may not we unitedly buy and control a railroad upon which our city has already spent and lost 3200,000, ami which may bo secured by a contin uous payment of small sums for a given time?

Editor Enquirer-Sun: In my last let ter, giving an account of the Alabama State Fair, I omitted to mention the fact that there wits on exhibition at the City Hall specimens of different Ala bama industries. The display was grand and everything tastefully ar ranged, which showed the evidence of woman’s hand. The refreshments were served by fair ladies to the hungry at nominal prices. The proceeds of this department went to tho Methodist church, and from what we ean gather a neat sum was realized. SUNDAY NIGHT, in company with an ex-Columbus gen tleman, who by the way is all ‘Wright,” wo went to tho First Baptist Church, and wore doubly repaid for time and. walk, by hearing that noted divine, DR. HAWTHORNE, who preached to a large and attentive congregation. He is one of tho best of Southern clergymen and truly a servant of God. The rasping ho gave tho Fair Committee, in regard to allowing that gambling table on the grounds, was well-timed and just. One of the first sights that greeted his eye on en tering tho enclosure was n drinking saloon; the next was this “slick tongued scoundrel,” whoso voice seemed to have a subterranean recess, hallooing Let her roll! Let her roll! Lot her roll !” The Fair Association received 3700 from this party for the privilege of “stealing 36,000.” So this divine justly estimates it. union springs. In the pretty little town of Union Springs we fouud a set (*f thrifty peo ple, who seem intent on making it a city. There are about twelve stores here, that do a general merchandise business, one or two drug stores, about the same number of bar-rooms and two splendid warehouses. Our intention was to visit tho cotton factory, but hadn’t time. While in the upper por tion of the city, a friend invited us to walk to “Sun-set View,” a distanco of aboutjone-half mile. We went and there beheld the most beautiful of scenery. For thirty miles around you seo the most magnificent forests, then acres of cotton, corn and sedge fields, again the stately oaks and pines loom up in the distanco, divided by nature into what might style parks, with crystal streamlets. Tho effect of the different colors, produced by tho setting of tho great orb, on the surroundings was magnificent. If you ovor stop in this beautiful little town put up at the Johnson House, at tho junction of tho Mobile A Girard Railroad and Montgomery A Eufaula Railroad, where you will find tho best of everything for tho “inner-man,” and an accommodating proprietor, who will take ploasuro in showing you tho enery I have attempted to describe. Tho train is ready for departure, so “all aboard for TROY.” A great many changes sinco wo were hero last; a bank, a number of now brick and framo buildings. A new brick liotol is being erected and will be open ed by a gentleman from Ozark, Ala., on December 1st. Troy- has a largo wagon trade and bids fair to be a city at somo time not far distant. A patent medicine man is hero hum bugging tho nogroos. Ho is on a box in tho middle of the public square, with a large bottle of his “patent” dosing all who are suffering. Tho “medicine” of tho nearest bar had very had effect on him and compelled tho marshal to in terrupt tho gentleman. It is very strange that tho negroes will never learn any sense. Every humbug that comes along gets their hard-earned money. In all portions of Alabama tho En- quirkr-Sun is considered the best pa per published in the South, and its re markable low rates makes it popular with all. P. Xmff( fVaperl«r Coart.

Dear Enquirer-Sun : We always like to write pleasant news for your popular paper, but in traveling through this section a “kinder blueness” comes over us to witness the general stagnation in trade, caused by short crops of cotton and corn. With the low price which cotton now commands, a hard time awaits both planter and merchant. Many planters will not make cotton enough to pay for fertilizers consumed, and others have made scarcely corn enough to last them sixty days. Add to this tho fact that hundreds of negroes in this county (Randolph) aro actually doing nothing, but canvassing for their favorites, day and night, in the contest between Mr. W. M. Tumlin, and J. J. McDonald, for Representatives in the December election. Several planters were in town to-day, trying to get ne groes to go and pick cotton, offering liberal Inducements, with little il’ any success. For miles around Cuthbert, night is made hideous with tho contin uous hurrahing for Tumlin or McDon ald. During tho day a drunken set congre gate in Futhliert on the streets nnd cor ners trying to convince each other that their man is the best. Tho contest is hot and hitter between tho negroes. Tho quantity of benzine which has been consumed already would float the steamer Wylly, with Walter Fry on board, from the upper end of Broad street to the Enquirer-Sun office. We find few advocates in this section for Atlanta to be tho Capital. Nearly all are for Milledgoville, and thousands who heard the able speech of H. H. J., of the Macon Telegraph-Mcssengei\ at Americas, a few nights since, are now satisfied that Milledgoville will ho the Capital. It was the most consoling, convincing advocacy over vot made for the Capital at Milledgoville. Far loads of building material aro now being contracted for to move with out delay to Milledgoville. Away with Atlanta, is now the password, and the echo ho ! for Milledgoville. Tho Superior Court is now in session at this place, Judge Kiddoo, presiding. The next sensation for Cuthbert will he the hanging of a negro next month Wo have marked down our entire line of SILKS to the following prices: Good Trimming Silks at 75 cents.
