Yesterday afternoon Mr. James Ren fro, of Russell county, Alabama, was badly cut by a saw in the mill of Mr. Tillman I. Poarco, of this city. He, as sisted by a negro man, was mending a hand of some machinery and eauglit in it just after executing the re pairs and thrown upon the revolving saw, One hand and arm was consid erably cut. Last night a negro eatno into the eity for Dr. Georgo Grimes to go to tin* re lief of Mr. Renfro. He (the negro) bad started to bring him to the city to se cure surgical aid and after having trav eled about six miles and when oight from the city, tho patient had bled so much as to bocomotoo ex hausted to go further. The negro canto rapidly on, and, securing the services of Dr. <Himes, wont lutrriodly back about 10 o’clock in tho night. Judging from the story of the negro, Mr. Renfro is in n very critical condi tion. He was loft at the home of Mr. Judson Ware. The Nuff'oror is a son- in-law of Mr. Tillman 1. Poarco. NnrrlRgr In Colored “High I.tl'e.’’ Yesterday at 2 i\ m., in St. James A. M. E. Church, of this eity, Phillip E. Burton was married to Charlotte Love, by Rev. W. J. Gaines. There were no attendants. The bride is a daughter of Mary Love, of tills city. The groom, who was raised in this city, is about twenty-two years old, and is in the employ of the Memphis A Little Rock Railroad. This couple left yesterday at 1 i\ m. by the Wostorn Railroad for their home in Memphis. I'onllMHipiiirnl. The dance that was to have been given at the ball of the Girard Cornet Hand has been postponed on account of had weather. It will be given on Tuesday, February 6th.

This commendation is echoed throughout tho laud. It is full and running over In weight, and the article itself perfectly pure and strong. All grocers keep it. Impudcul Ti«iii|m. Two ubiquitous vagrants, a few days ago, went to tin* residence of Mrs. Em ily Dozier, about 13 miles east of this city, ami asked for something to cat. As they were very slovenly and ugly in their demeanor she very properly turn ed them away. In her immediate pres ence they walked into her garden and took what vegetables they desired with out asking her permission or saying a word. The gentleman of the house was in the city on that day but it is a pit that ho was not there to let buck shot ffy at them until thay could not navi gate. It would have boon a roal pleas ure to have taken them in on the wing. A licit V* ItlOM. It was accidental. A little boy struck little Wylly, son of Mr. John McKee, with a base ball bat on one of ids check bones, and hrulsod and cut him severe ly. Dr. G. J.

Tills evening in the Opera House, Columbus will have the opportunity which will please as well ns instruct. Barrett, one of the ablest and most elo quent of actors will appear both as Shylock and David Garrick We have seen Mr. Barrett in quite a number of bis impersonations and so have many of our readers. We all know the high rank lie occupies in his profession—be ing a peer among the very foremost, ami rightly judged the rival of any. Not to liave’lieard of him and bis high reputation would indeed argue ignor ance woeful to admit. The plays to be presented are very interesting. One who would hear Shakespeare cannot have a hotter Interpreter than Barrett. The evening will lie a delightful one to all who have capacity to appreciate enjoy, and bo charmed with excellence. Tlie NouHi f’arollnn Nlnitrrli. Mr. J. Evans Britton, proprietor, and Ills colored troupe did not get off* yes terday. They have been so unfortunate as to give such an abominable enter tainment that they could not “draw” enough to pay their hotel and news paper bills, and State and county taxes. All of their baggage and musical in struments were attached yesterday. Each of the negroes claimed a certain portion of the baggage and a musical instrument, excepting nothing save the two-story white hats. What disposition is to be made of these tilings Is yet to bo decided, although they are in tin hands of Hirsch A Ifoclit, auctioneer! and commission merchants. That Hon. John M. Freeman, colored, the middle man and ex-member of the South Carolina Legislature, said that lie was a lawyer himself, and lie could plead the ease. He was informed that he would have to pay his license for “practicing” hero Tues day night and then he could talk about making arrangements to pay for license to practice law in Georgia. We learned that the proprietor and mana ger telegraphed to Charleston for $500 to pay his indebtedness here. We didly aiul dispassionately think that Mr. Hritton ought to stop traveling with this company and let the membors return homo and go to work. Any man of sound judgment ought to know that he can’t impose upon the peoplo with a set of men hotter adapted to splitting of rails than people’s sides. How to Get Oll t hcai* In Ritlny Wenllicr 'I’lie suggestion was made to us by Jake Burrus, and wo think it duo to the young men to publish it for their heneiit, us the weather is rainy and they have engagements to see Barrett to-night. He says take your umbrella and go alone to the opera bouse and await tlio arrival of some rich man’s carriage, or of any other man. Pay tho driver a half dollar, when all hav< alighted, to carry you around aftor your sweetheart. Tlion after tho thou tro is over, if it should still bo raining go out and call your (?) driver by some fancy name as if you had a carriage hired. Call loud and long. If no olio answers curse a little in ail nude tone, just enough to make tho girl think you are mad and in earnest and then alio will say that saucy driver lias had the impudonco to go and put tho horses in the stable without being ordorod so to do. Regret very much tlio deplorable dilemma and take that horn of it which says, “Well, wo will have lo walk homo under this umhrol la.” Play it strong and line, boys. Thor is nothing like inakiiigtlie world thin you have the “weazol skin,” even you are destitute. As you jouri home, swear that you will never pay the mail for his carriage liiro and you will tell the truth. . .If. E. COXFEBEXCE OF GEORGIA. Eleventh fcesslon—First Day. The Conference of the A. M. E. Church of Georgia met yesterday at ;30 a. m. at St. James church, of this ity. The exercises were opened by singing “How beauteous are their feet,” after which Bishop Campbell •ad the 12th and 13th chapters of 1st Corinthians and analyzed and applied he proceeded. After this several ymns were sung, and prayers were offered by different ministers. Then followed tlio Bishop’s address, which was an eloquent attempt. The roll of ministers was called by Rev. James 'Porter, Secretary of the last Conference, and out of about two hundred all answered to their names wjth tlio exception of about thirty. Rev.

We must abandon, I fear, all hope of ascertaining where the exelama- lion, “Consistency, thou urtaiewel,” whs earliest put into print. There re main, however, an immense number of familiar quotations, the origin of which, though not generally known, are ofttinies curious enough. For in stance, the common phrase, “Where llic shoe pinches,” which shrewdly expresses a truth, conics to us from Plutarch, who wrote Ids famous “Parallel Lines” in the llrst century of the Christian era. It is to befound in ids Life "of (Emilius Paulus.” A Homan wusdivorced from Ids wife; and, being highly blamed by his friend—who demanded, "Was she not chaste? was she not fair?”—hold ing out her shoe, usked them whether it was not new and well-made. “Yet,” added he, “none of you can tell where it pinches me.” To this, of course, no rejoinder could he made. What phrase is in more frequent ami ordinary use, gravely or face tiously, than “Adding insult to inju ry?” Yet it has reached us in a fable lly Pluedrus, a Roman author, who lived in the reign of the Emperor Augustus Ciesar, nearly nineteen hundred yearsngo, and whoso writings were first discovered to modern liter ature in 15tH), at Hheitns, in Franco. The fable is called “Tho Bald Man nnd the Ely,” and it reads thus: “A lly bit the bare pate of a bald man, who, endeavoring to crush It, gave himself a heavy blow. Then said the lly jeerlugly, ‘You wanted to avenge the'sting of a tiny insect with death. What will you do to yourself, who have added insult to injury?” Frequently, “The sinews of war” is a conversation phrase. This is said to have originated with Demos thenes, over two thousand years ago, when lie said, “The sinews of a (lairs ire out.” Later, Bion, the Greek, aid, “Riches are the sinews of imsi- le.ss.” After him, Plutarch said that Cleomcties first called money the sin- ws of tlie State, Witli special refor ms! to war. After him, various emi nent persons, including Cicero, de- lared money to be the sinews of rnr. “Beware of a man of one book,” a sentence originating with St. Thomas Aquinas, is not used so much as it used to be. But lie who knows one Imok, or one subject, extremely well, s apt, if ever lie gets tlie chance, to talk about that and nothing else. Coleridge, who talked a great deal upon a variety of subjects, related how he traveled in a stage-coach witli a sensible-looking person, to whom lie threw out many invitations to converse, but ever in vain. At last, in despair, lie said: “I have tried you on a score of subjects, none of which seemed to interest you. Can you speak on anything f" The man answered, “I am a tanner. Take me upon sole leather, and see whether 1 can’t talk.” The aphorism, “Defend me from MARKET REPORTS. By Telegraph to the Enqiilrer-Sim. FINANCIAL. London, January 30.—Noon. — Consols 95 11-10.

Save, save—oil! save me from the candid friend 1” “God tempers the wind to the shorn lamb,” as used by Lawrence Sterne, in thu story of Maria in his “Senti mental Journey,” bus repeatedly been used as a quotation from the Bible, in which it isnotf to be found. Neither did it originate with Sterne, who,like Lord Byron, was a most unscrupulous picker-up of other writers’ gems. It was written by Henri Estienne, a Jfrench author, in 1594, and, half a century later, by George Herbert, who wrote Latin and English poems witl great and equal facility.” “God always supports the heaviest battalions,” sounds like a modern aphorism, hut is foreign and ancient. It was used by Terence two thousand years ago, and by Tacitus, the Roman Historian, who lived in the first cen tury. Roger Rabutin. Count De Bus sey, a French wit ana satirist of the 17tli century, lias it in bis letters. Voltaire, a hundred years later, also expressed that idea, having found it in one of Madame de Sevigne’s let ters to her daughter. Wrong quotations are common. “The tongue is an unruly member,” generally attributed to tlie Epistle of St. James, is not to be found therein; the real words are, “The tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil.” “Truth is stranger than fiction,” is a usual misquotation from Byrqn.
