To he Heard To-morrou. The case of Mrs. K&vnnngh against thc Mobile and Girard railroad has been set for a hearing to morrow morning nt 10 o’clock. This is the rase in which an order is asked for enjoining the Mo bile and Girard railroad from using the side track on Ninth street, between Broad and Front. Much interest has been manifested, and the re sult is eagerly awaited by those who are to be most affected by it. Stole the Money Drawer. A burglar entered thegroce y store of Mr. T. Z. Miller, nt Lindsey’s creek, four miles above town. Saturday night and carried offthe money drawer, containing only a pistol, as the money had be removed by Mr. Miller. Tlu guilty party, but suspicion point Yesterday, soon after the steamer Aid arrived, a little boy named Tommie Baldwin, in attempt ing to hoard the boat, slipped from a bale of cot ton and fell into the river. Mr. Ed Shepherd, purser of the Aid, happened to see the little fel low when he fell. Mr. Shepherd, without say ing a word to anyone, gallantly plunged in to rescue the little boy. He succeeded in catching the boy and told him to hold on to his hack. The little hoy did so, and Mr. Shepherd attempted to swim to the bank, but current carried him down stream. In th * meantime thc little boy had slippe 1 from Mr. Shepherd’s ha :k and he had caught him be tween hi* logs. Being compelled then to swim entirely with his hands, he was rapidly becoming exhausted. The crowd on the boats at the wharf, however, had discovered Mr. Shepherd and the little boy struggling in the water and a boat was lowered and men went to their assist ance and rescued them both. It is highly prob able that they would have both gone down in a very short time had not assistance arrived when i did. As soon as the excitement of being in the water was over, the little boy, who had borne himself nobly, broke down and began to cry. He was soon dressed in a suit of dry clothes, however, and was very grateful to Mr. Shepherd. He clue to the I thanked heartily and kissed him when he went » a strange I to leave the boat. The little boy is the s'»n of a negro who was seen loitering a *ouml there, in fact, snt about the store for two hours late Sat urday evening, and asked Mr. M. when he would close. Coining to CnltniilMis. Mr. II. Sternberg, of Dadeville, Ala., will soon come to Columbus to make it his future home. He is n partner of the firm owning the “Beehive,” the well known and popular dry goods house of this city. Mr. Sternberg has been conducting a dry goods business in Dadeville for a number of ! years, but has sold out In order that his time may j be devoted to the house In this city. In speaking j of his departure the Dadeville Democrat says: 1 “It is with sincere regret that we give the parting | hand to Mr. H Sternberg, who leaves our town i fbr CoInmbuH, (la. To our friends of that place I wo send, with our kind wishes, one or our best I and most successfril business men who lias won I fbr himself tlmt which to ‘bettor than great riches’- a good name.” IVrsotuil. ■ returned Atlanta < i Hiin- Mr. C.

II HUMS SAIL I OR (i HI MLS, Ills Majority Near One lluiulreii mid Fifty—The i Vote in Mcrhieflier. Owing to the unsatisfactory returns received from Harris county Saturday night, many of our i readers have since been anxious to know more [ about the result. A representative of the Ex- ! quirkh-Sun took a run up to Hamilton Sunday j afternoon, and we are at least able to assure the friends of Hon. Thos. W. Grimes that there is in. i question about the county being safely in the I ! Grimes column. All of the precincts had been \ reliably heard from except two, and those two j j are known to have given a majority for Mr. I Grimes. The vote as far as the figures had been f obtained was ; Grimes 36$ and Harris 261. ' I i\ majority for Grimes of lid. The • | two districts from which the actual figure* had ! not been obtained were Davidson’s and upper I nineteenth. Both are known to be for Grim* s ! J and will run his majority up in the neighborhood , i of 150. Tlu* vote is to be consolidated to-day at ! 1 Hamilton. Tl*-fight made in that county against I Mr. Grimes was rather a surprise to his friends. 1 I They believed that there would be practically nr ! ] opposition to him and consequently were n< t on 1 the alert or as active as they would have been 1 hud they contemplated the desperate fight that was sprung just upon the eve of the election by « tiie friends of Mr. Harris. They strained ever* , nerve to eaptme shaw made canvass, and e rut lire in eve thc county. Collector C’ren- ;i rapid but thorough, circulated campaign lit- y nook and corner. The HOTEL ARRIVALS. friends of Mr. Grimes will no doubt profit by thi* experience and will not allow themselves to he , taken by surprise in any of the counties that arc j yet to act. In this connection it may not be I amiss to remark that the victory of Hon. Thos. j W. Grimes in Harris county is not only very I complimentary to him. but an evidence of his popularity and strength with tlu* people. He the on’y man within our recollection that has another man, for whom I entertain great respect, but it look* now like he will have to tarry a little longer at Jericho. He can wait; let him take courage and remember, in the language of Joe Dennis, of the Hamilton Journal, “all things come to him that waits." The merchants, manufacturers and property owners in Columbus ought to make up a purse to pay for the printing of 100.000 copies of that Sunday paper, and distribute them throughout the length and breadth of this land; and let the world know what Columbus is. and wbat she is boundfto be in the near future, and what a good paper you can get up. Such a paper as you are now giving us is as important to the prosperity of Columbus as the combined influence of the glorious enterprises of which you speak. Then let me say to my fellow commercial travelers who represent on the road Columbus enterprises, don't let its forget the Enquirer-Sun. but say to hotel keepers, merchants, farmers and everybody else we meet to take the Enquirer-Sun. Be sure to ask all news dealers for it. and when they see a demand for the paper, will neyer be without it. In this way we can help the management to get it before the people, hare it* ads read, in crease our trade, and help Columbus. Meekly yours, Guano. Fleet inn of Officer**.

Ain- l.Hinji. iij tin 1 K\pi‘ntlTp i’ommitfpp. To the democracy of Lee county: Under the blessings of free government you are called upon again to exercise the highc t prerogative nf the citizen through the bal lot box. Accustomed as we are to the privileges and rights of a free country, we should not forget that liberty is never won by men without great struggle and never retained except by "eternal vigilance.” A relentless and remorseless foe is for ever on the alert to poison the very foun tain of free institutions and destroy the blessings of free government among meu. The insatiate and unholy desire for |of- fice assumes the role of patriotism, and by every artifice and device seeks to impose itself upon a confiding people as a virtue. A bold and unreasonable claim is asserted to the offices of our free state, and public station is demanded as private property tor individual gain. “Public office is a public trust,” and be longs to no man. It is instituted in our free country to subserve the public good, and no man has a right to this sacred trust for private emolument. Government, offices and elections are all ordered and established for the public wel fare. The welfare of this county and state imperiously demands that white men should not shut their eyes to the dangers which surround their homes and families. For twenty years we have had to contend against the assaults that have been made upon the civilization established by the white race in this country. During'most of that time we have had the heavy hand of the federal government against us. The republican party has always b eu our bit ter and merciless foe. The democratic party time and again met defeat fighting for the ascendancy of white men in the political affairs of the south, until two years ago a national triumph assured for the south the sacred right to govern our selves. And now, at the first election after that great victory, we find ourselves con fronted with a defiant toe offering battle to the democratic party and inviting white men to assist in its destruction; and there by lead us back into the dismal misrule i aud anarchy of a period that fills the ! memory with a hideous nightmare. There is no use disguising the truth, the large bulk of the colored voters will throw themselves in solid columns against the democratic party whenever they think they can defeat it; they will not have con fidence in the wlyte man’s government. J There are many individual exceptions who are in favor of peace and law, and good government,and they are brave enough,and patriotic enough, to casttheir votes with their white friends. But the large majority of them, led by colored politicians who are bent on making moneylout of politics, vote against the democratic party at every op-j portunity. If they can succeed in beating down and disorganizing the organized de mocracy. if they can divide white men, all men know the inevitable consequences. It wilt not do to say the men they are vot ing for now are good aud clever men. That may be so. Vfe make no war ou men; we" are discussing principle, not men, in this address. They mav vote for good men now, but as soon as they feel they have thc power thev will move forward to grasp the offices and take charge of the state and county in future elections. What then becomes of our fellow-citizens who live in the country? Those who live in town are protected. But what of the schools, churches and houses in the country ? When this fail- land becomes a San Domingo, and igno rance wakes up to power, what hand will bridle the license that stalks through the laud ? Strong men will protect themselves and their families, but the weak and de fenseless have no protection. The colored politicians are not fools, they hate well define^! and clearly recog nized objects in view. Their aim, then- purpose. their scheme is to divide white men. Through that division they see vic tory just on the hill. They are' too wiry and wary to put out bad, bold men now, for that would show thc cloven loot and drive white men back to their allies and ; their duty. They are approaching the seat of power by undermining ditches and parallels. Fellow-citizens, we do not wish to re fleet on your intelligence by discussing the necessity of organization to repel a com mon danger. As sensible men, you know that no party can succeed without organi zation. The democratic party in convention at Montgomery ' has placed a splendid ticket 'in the field, headed by the brilliant statesman from Hale. In all the contests of the past he has stood unmoved on the side of the people “ That same party, in regular convention assembled, after an unusually heavy vote in the various beats, by its legally accred ited delegates, nominated a full'ticket in Lee county. That there should have been some disappointment and muttering after such a spirited contest,was to be expected, and was very natural. We recognize the disappointment indulged by many true democrats. We earnestly appeal to them to lay aside all feeling and all personal grievance and work for the battle that lies befo'-e us. We appeal to them to present to the enemy a solid front for the sake of the history and principles of the democratic party. We cordially invite them to sink all personal differences and rise above personal feeling in this supreme horn- of trial for the democratic party. We could not all get our man ; some had to bear defeat and regret. The men who are nominated are known to you as honor- aide, cape hie men. If they had been de feated they would have promptly retired aud supported the ticket. The passions and resentmentof the contest should die away in the inesenct of the sober, second thought of men who love their country. But men count for nothing in this great fight. Principles are involved that will live when they are dead. The best inter ests nf this county are at stake; our pros perity, our families, our children, our homes', our altars and our civilization are wrapped up in this great issue, and true to the trust you placed in our hands, we warn you of the breakers ahead.
