Wednesday to Waveny Had. On
Monday Mr Chariea L Dsvia and Mr

than the building of this important
line of railroad. The gentlemen having
ihe matter in chaige will make It a

right spirit.
TBE WESTBBN ROAD.
It is reported, and on good authority,
that the Western reltw9y company, of
Alabama, has leased the brar.ch of the
Alabama Great Southern from Ackron
toheima. This branch roed Is about
seventy miles in leng’h and will be
operated ia connection with the West
ern raitw; ? sjst< m.
WHAT IT WOULD DO,
The Meriwether V.Ldirat r Bays:
“The survey of tbe Georgia Midland
route is completed snd tbe directors
will now proceed to examine and com
pare the estimates and decide upon the
best iocatio i of tbe road. Friends o!
ibe enterpri-.e are sanguine of tLe ear ! y
completion of the line and predict
great development to the latent re
sources of toolhei stern and eastern
Mi ri wet her. The road will render
Chalybeate and Warm springs
more acceiBib'e to vieitors ana
greatly increase toe patromue
and vaiue of these two watering pia-es.
The rosd a;s would penetrate a fi::e
portion of tLe county siiXEulsting and
increislog production and adding
gieatiy to rte convetisnre of the citi
zens, Much inter, st has bren mani

Gill, first and k-w.r ninth districts en-1
very libera: subecriptii ns have been
mede. May the moat ear gulDe hopes
of il) who hi ve pushed the enter uriee
tc promised success be fully re-limed.”
Tka Cltr ishii «*Z OolamSui,
Atthe tate term uf the superior oour
the grand jury advised the abolish
ment of ihe city court, and solely npon
the ground of economy. Economy ie
usually very commendable, and by
Kboilshl.jg all courtii very much ex
pense would be Bayed!
But upon the score of extra expense
aione, how wouid the matter s-and
wuh the city cour-T The grand Jury
certainly aid not have the feoia proper
ly before them. They s-v that the
cour; costs ihe count} (1 500 a year »rd
brings into the treasury ociy |5'!0,
making an tin a expense of $2 000
W hat a, e the facu?
It takes cn an average, esy, |i00 a
day, to run the superior court. And a ; i
will admit that the oiiy court will
snorten each term )f thesuperior court
one week, end during tbe yer.r twelve
days. Aud np ;n tbit Lem aloes, give
• he city court credit for |12U0 The
o.ty court will biiog in'.o -he treasury
in huts, forfeitures and jury f-es at
least, say, |2t0 eaon term, with four
terms in the year; ana give the city
c mrs another credit for |800—making
$20(10.
Again; by the establishment of the
city court, with quarterly ai d ad
journed terms, au persons cot fined In
jail for misdsmeenors will bo speedily
deposed ot ana the county will be re
lieve- lrom the gr’si expenteo; pr ■
viding lor them. We do not know the
smouc , of this item, but it must be
considerable; and, therefore, we feel
anthoriz-jd tu say that the city court
even now will tavo to the treasury as
much as it oos>s to run the court.
So much xor the msney considera
tion. But are conns organized alone
f ,r the purpcee cf bringing money into
the treasurjT We understand that
oour.e are established io protect per
sons and property ana to suppress
crime.
Again, the city court has Jnst been
o*gatjiz-d, ar.d only thiee terms ,iave
been heid. Has It had a fair triai t as
time goes on and population and busi
nras increase, this court will more
than twice over relieve the treasury
from ait e xpense of sustaining it.
Wi'hout tl is ocurt the urmi of the
supe ior court will beccme so long
-.hat jurors, part es, wimeseee and offi
cers of com twill eocme wearied out
and break down utder ihe pressure
Give the ciiy court a fair trial, and
then, if found useless, let it be abol
ished. We are nutoastieg any cenime
upon the graud jury ! larlrrmit; we
know they ao ed conscientlcusly from
the faots before them,
The people were almost unanimous
iD petitioning for this oourt, acd il now
abolished they would, in le*.s than
twelve months, petitiou to es ablish it
arain. Every city in ihe state, of aDy
importance, have foun^ it neoeseary to
have such a court, snd they have tad
them for many years, aud they wit
never abolish them. And in like man
ner the oity court of Columbus will be
found, upon trial, to be a ceoeeslt--, and
it has oometo Btay.

working eleven aud a half h- urs for
e day’s work and think it lor !co
much for Ihe pay th;y itceive, and

place The strikers’ bc ion i' lo!
sanctioned by the ioctl assembly of
knights of labor, as but one ol tbe
strikers btlongc to the order. It is
gene'a'ly supposed that the company
will ai once shorten trie diiveru’
hours or put new men tn ttic-ir places
as they cannot well afford to allow
the men to be idle.
