The second of the interesting series of the Par lor conferenoes now being held in behalf of our young men, met last night ai the residence of Col. Ueo. P. Swift. Mr, Chandler, president of the Young Men's Christian Association, conduct ed the exercises. He began by briefly but forci bly setting forth the dangei mid-temptations to which young men are subjected and the need of special effort in their behalf. He then called on Mr Williams, of Atlanta, to speak in the rela tion of the Y. M. (’.A. to the church and how it reached young men. Mr. Williams briefly followed down the history of the church from apostolic times 10 the present, noting the various important epoch* from tin catacombs to the orgauimlion of the Young Men’s Christian Association and the way in which it operated. Mr. Ruf, then spoke of the local work and what \n a* yet needed to make it eminently successful and practical. (Questions were then asked and answered for a short time, when the conference closed with the feeling that the evening had been well spent. COLUMBUS STREET RAILROAD. A IIII Mil I >1 Kb-itim i-tlnir of tlu* st-M'kluihle of Directors and Ofllnws ’ mid tl The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Columbus street railroad company was held yes terday. A majority of the slock was represented. The annual report of the president showed that the road had been economically managed and hud made some money, but for certain reasons it was thought best not to declare a dividend from the earnings of the past yea r. An election of directors was held and resulted as follows : C. B. Grimes. B. T. Hatcher, F. D. Peabody, W. P. Hunt. F. C. Weisiger, G- W. ! Dillinguam and O. S. Jordan. At u subsequent meeting of the board of directors Mayor Grimes declined a re-election as president and Mr. B. T. Hatelier was elected. Mr. F. c. Weisiger was elected secretary and treasurer, and Mr. James Weisiger was ap pointed temporary superintendent. for our arrest?” “Not that 1 have heard of,” replied the re- , porter. 1 “They told us at Opelika that we would be ar- I rested here, but I guess they were trying to I frighten us." 1 While this brief conversation was going on, | the intended bride, who may be described us a very pretty* auburn-haired young lady of twenty- . two summers, sat blushing and trembling in one corner of the carriage. The story about the tele gram had evidently frightened her. “Where are you from?” the reporter asked. “We arc* from Montgomery," replied the young ' man. •‘Did the old folks object?” “Well, my relatives objected, and a*» we could not marry there, we thought we would come here. I know they can’t keep us from mar rying, as I am of age. My father is dead and my mother does not want me to marry." At this time the carriage drew up at the court house, and the couple were ushered up <t> the grand jury room A summon* was s eat to Judge Wuotten ana tho Vepprter hunted up Judge .

The groom was anxious for it certificate of marriage and waited at the courthouse until Judge Brooks returned from dinner. After getting the certificate, the happy ' couple returned to the depot ami left on the 2:25 , train for Montgomery. ' At the depot the groom expressed iiU heartful , gratitude for t ho interest which conductor Gee s- I111 nnd tile reporter hud taken in his case, and said he hoped t** hav - .111 opportunity soiuu day of repaying them both, lie ant i.u’pated mi trouble on hi* return home, and seemed ns happy as a mail who h.ul ju4 drawn a $1 j,00h-priy.ti in tlr* Louisiana lottery.

The Piildic Srliool Enti-rtHiiumnit at tin* ftpim lluuse Lust Niirlil a Comphtr Sum***. Tlu* teaelieis and children of the colored pub lic schools* of the city gave an entertainment in»t night at the opera house f«*r the purpose of rais ing fundft to pay for an organ for the use of the -ehools. At an utrly hour every Beat 1:1 the opera luuisi \va* tilled with the better ela.-s uf col >red p« opl e of tin city, a ho are patron* **f the sell- »,>ls. There weix also a few white people pn sent, ami among them several members of the board of trustees. There were about four hundred children en gaged in the entertainment, all of whom showed e\i e’.b-nt training. Tlu* programmo was begun t". the singing, by forty childien, of tne cantata, "Darting, or the Crown of Reward." They ac quitted theinselve* very creditably indeed. 1 The special feat in es of the entertainment were the tableau "Queen of Flowers" and the calisthenic exercise*. 1 Tile tableau was beautiful and the songs were ’ very well rendered. All of the 1 hildren took part in the cali*thei.ic e.\i*ivises. The costumes worn by the different classes were tasty, and the children presented a handsome appearance. The girls were graceful ami the boys manly. The many intricate move ments were faultlessly made. The teachers and managers deserve great credit fertile pains taken which made this feature of the entertainment so very pleasing. Throughout the interesting programme the children were the recipients of tVequcut applause. Tlu audience was • a very large one. and during tlie entire evening peiiVet order was preserved. There was 110 boUterousness, a ml everything m »\ed along with system and promptness, show ing excellent training. The audience was well pleased, and the colored people have reason to congratulate themselves upon the admirable training the children are receiving and the cred- itaole manner in which they conducted them- j seises. Take it all in all. there has seldom been '• a more pleasing and creditable entertainment in the opera house, nor a more orderly audience I where so many people were gathered together.

Humanity jv was consideration sufficient to have pronqit- u® to allow these creatures to go their way hm than huddle them in our mi Ft as miser- - oDv.ot*. This, like every injustice practiced n another, naf its reactionai> effect upon the The negro us a class, shiftless and void of fnre- *i«nt ami circumspection, can never accumuhite sufficient to pay transportation for himself and f iinily any considerable distance. If England .should enact such a prohibitory tax la w aga.nst tlie emigration of the poor dwellers In Ireland all Christendom would set up a right eous howi of indignation. It has ever been so. that men can see 'the wickedness of others and be *t 1 me blind to the outrages which they themselves do perpetrate. Now, the negro convict, instead of being as many of them would have been, a free and go easy creature In some l’ar off western territory, but for the prohibitory ia v spoken of, conic* now near our midst as a great black army T convict*, and by hi.* pres ence ia this way alarms the free white toiler for bread, and produces a commercial and social and we may add apolitical commotion. Oh! my countrymen, how long shall it be thus, ‘‘bull we continue to constrain from departure, the negro, this disturber of our peace, this great black incubus upon our state’s prosperity and in *0 doing perpetrate a heaven-frowning injustice upon the negro himself, thereby makingjhiin the instrument of our mutual injury. Our state, rather than throw obstacles iu the way of the ne groes' departure, could well afford t- » make an ap propriation to help defray his transportation so far away that return would be impossible. The emigrant tax law was passed to gratify some of the owners of old clay and sand hills who feared that unless they could get very cheap labor their lands would become valueless. But the result has been that they have been forced to mortgage and sell the old hills to feed the un profitable laborer, and the very means lived by them to hold up fhe value of their lands, has made them worthless; for the presence of the negro, has served to keep away a thrifty white peasantry, who would have bought lands and kept up their market value. It is to the interest of the white toiler, the inter est of the owner of poor lands; the interest of even* lover of thrift, prosperity and enterprise to encourage the emigration of the negro. If half the negroes in the black belt could be exchanged f*»r a like number of hogs and sheep and cows to eat the grass on the poor lands where the negro and guano now hold sway, then this country would bask in the sunshine of prosperity, and plenty would abound.

Tuesday evening at Wood berry, nine miles 1 from Greenville, Mr. Bud Johnson was shot and killed by Mr. James Cartwright. There was no witness to the shooting. From what we learn 1 from parties who have heard Mr. Cartwright’s statement, it seems that Cartwright has been under a kind f f religious craze for several days. He and Johnson wc-ie sitting on a fence talking, and without ihe least warning or provocation, Cartwright drew his pistol and fired, instantly killing Johnson. The- ball took effect above the 16$ eye. Cartwright said afterward that he whs commanded by God to kill him. amt he* had only obeyed bis instructions..
