There were no attendants. The display of pres
ents was elegant, and included many handsome
t\nd valuable articles.
The groom is a popular young physician and a
Cultured and upright gentleman. The bride is
one of our loveliest and most fascinating young
ladies, and was greatly admired for her many
charms and accomplishments.
The happy couple will leave for Carrollton this

n host of friends. A reception will he tendered
them to-night at the home of the groom’s father.

Dr. Carlisle Terry returned yesterday from At

Mr. s. R. Murphey, of Hamilton, is in the city.
H. C. Cameron, Esq., of Hamilton, is in the

Mr. W. L. Tillman has returned from the Ho

Mrs. William Redd, Sr., went up to Alautn yes
terday to visit relatives.
Bishop Joseph S. Key. j
Thousands of Georgians, without reference to
denominational connections, were made glad hv !
the announcement in our press dispatches of yes- !
terday, that Dr. Key had been elevated to the I
highest office in the gift the Southern Methodist !
Church.
Bishop Key has been our close personal friend
for n my years. His character as a gentleman, a •
ihri-tiun and a minister of religion is absolutely I
Without blemish. He is an eminently wise and !
Conservative man. He is big hearted, noble and j
generous. He has lived most of tlu* time, for |
t vs enly \ ears, in t his community, where his sunny
disposition, genial temperament and sterling
char; ( I < r have endeared him to all ol'our people, j
A\'e have no doubt hut that Macon will he his fu- 1
t ure in cue. He is a wise counsellor, a good tinan-

I holders the by-laws and
hoard of directors. Afte
I adopted by the stockholdi
rules of the company.
I On motion of Captain Blanchard the seal
adopted by the hoard of directors was adopted us
eseal oft he company.
Mr. O. Gun by Jordan then read the proposed
form of bond and mortgage, and a vote being
taken upon it, every share of stock present voted
to authorize the president and directors to
execute the mortgage and issue the bonds. This
mortgage authorizes not over fifteen thousand
dollars per mile* of six per cent, forty-year gold
bonds. The mortgage covers the territory be
tween Columbus and Athens. It is understood
that bonds will now be issued to cover the first
division, viz: Columbus to East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia railroad.
Mr J. S. Garrett nominated the following for
directors and they were unanimously elected:
George I*. Bwift, jr., Dr. N. J. Bussey (’. L.
Davis, J. F. Flournoy, B. T. Hatcher, Seaton
Orantland, W. J. Kincaid, J. W. Woolfolkand J’.
M. Foley.
Mr. G.Gunby Jordan stated for the information
of the stockholders that 93 miles of the road had
been contracted, and that the contractors were
under a $40,000 bond for the completion of the
work by May, 1887. There are now ovir 500
hands at work on tne line, and the tunnel work
will begin in a few days. The work beyond Flint
river was very light, and there was no necessity
for hurrying about it. It had been thought best
to complete the work from this end as it goes, so
as to be able to call for assessments of
stock earlier than otherwise could be
done. He said steel rails for the
entire route to the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia railroad were contracted for. The first 25
miles of them are to he delivered by August 15,
18HH. He had no doubt the 93 miles would be
completed by next summer and realty for busi
ness.
The meeting then adjourned.
At a subsequent meeting of the newly elected
board <>f directors the following officers were
elected:
President -Seaton Grantland, of Griffin.
Vice-President -G. P. Swift, jr., of Columbus.
Secretary and Treasurer -Charles L. Davis, of
Warm Springs.

engine Is jacked up it re
ntes from the time the gas
is turned to heat the steel tire sufficiently to move
it in at once the necessary distance by means of
screws. Under the old plan it required about
two and a half hours to change the tires. The
trucks are changed by putting the axles ir
a lathe and turning down the shoulders an
inch and a ha if on each end and then pressing
the wheels in. The wheels are removed from
the trucks and replaced by means of a very heavy
hydraulic pressure and is quickly done.
Mr. Albrecht, the master of the machine shops,
has already changed several locomotives to suit
the now gauge. A circular has also been pre
pared and issued by tlu* company with gen
eral instructions for the transportation,
maohin*■'•>• and oar departments in regard to the
change •'!’gauge on May 31. The undertaking is-
an inmu nsi one. but the officials are preparing to
make the change without a bobble. The inside
spikes have* been driven on the entire line of the
Mobile anil Girard railroad. There will be thirty
hands to every* ten miles of thi.*. road and they
will begin work at the crack of day. Even their
meals will be prepared in the city and sent out
to them, and Mr. (Jlark has bought several hun
dred barrels in which fresh water will be kept for
drinking purposes. The change will not inter
fere with the running of trains but one day.

CONDITION OF FLORIDA CROPS.

Jacksonville, May 18.—The Times-Union this
morning prints the following report of the con
dition of crops furnished by the agricultural de-
( partment:
j A small quantity of the winter rye and oats is
! harvested in nearly all portions of the state. The
; first cuttings of guinea and para grass have also
taken place, but their acreage is small. Consid
erable quantities of the annual millets will be
planted, and crab grass converted into hay and
preparations for seeding will take place (luring
this month, on the grounds occupied as gardens,
for trucking.
The cold of last winter made the products of
early gardens and truck farms nearly a month
later titan usual in reaching the markets. The
usual prices have been realized for those pro
ducts. The reduction of the crop of oranges was
counteracted by an increase in the number of
trees and the increased capacity of the older
trees, and t here is a strong probability of a bloom
ing taking place in may and June. Pears and
peachers promise twice the quantity of any for
mer year.
State Agent Knapp makes a report on the finan
cial condition of the farming community. He
says: The practice of borrowing money upon
future erops is rapidly declining, and with that
decline there is a more diversified system of crop
ping and greater independence in the farming
community. Under the old system the planter
was compelled to plant cotton, as that was the
crop mortgaged to the creditor.
The tax upon farming was exorbitant—first, bv
reason of no restrictions upon usury; and second,
by reason of compulsory trading Only at the store
of the advancer. These advances often consumed
the entire crop raised, and the farmers found
themselves at the end of the year as they had en
tered upon it. In most portions of the state the
lands are rapid l.v changing hands, often upon
speculation, and only with partial payments, and
contracts with ten per cent, and upward for in
terest on the residue. High, or rather unlimited
rates of interest, have brought into Florida, as it
always will, a class of unscrupulous money lend
ers, who have pressed their loans upon the im
prudent and have secured themselves by bonds
and mortgages upon real estate far below the
true valuations, and in many cases these will be
forfeited.
The temptations held out of making large per
cents, in the mercantile pursuits have induced
many to engage in that business on borrowed
capital until it is overdone.

Twenty miles from our city upon the Columbus
and Rome railroad at Kingsboro, situated on the
most beautiful and picturesque portion of Mul
berry creek, only 100 yards from the station, is |
“where.’’ j
Tlu* description of “what” must be more j
lengthy. The management of the Columbus and
Rome railway, appreciating the fact that a nice
picnic grounds was a necessity to accommodate j
the growing wants of the people of Columbus and
stations on its road, have, at quite an expense,
purchased a beautiful grove of three acres, on
which they have had erected a large dancing
platform 30x57 feet, with band-stand attached.
Seals have also been placed in different parts of
the grounds and the place otherwise improved.
Views and scenery fine (“daisy”), old mill in dis
tance, mill-pond fish. What more could you |
ask? All that is needed to complete the pic- j
ture is the bright and beautiful faces of sweet
maidens and gallant beaux. A day in the woods, |
a moonlight picnic —who will open the season? ,
