The grand rally of good templars announced for last night had to lx* postponed, on account of the failure of Mr. Jas. G. Thrower, of Atlanta, to reach the city. Mr. Thrower telegraphed yester day evening that he had missed the train, and could not get here. The time of the meeting will be duly announced. Split Open tVith a Hoc. A negro named Henry Craig killed another negro on the plantation of Mr. Dick Young, in Harris county, the latter part of last week by splitting bis head open with a hoe. Craig made his escape and has not been arrested. It wits thought that he was in this city Tuesday night. This case is no doubt the murder of which the Enquirkr-Sun made brief mention yesterday morning. Proud of ( olunihii'. Capt. John Davis, of Albany, with his wife came over with Capt. Raoul in his private car and spent yesterday in visiting the different manufactories of Columbus. They both ex pressed themselves as highly pleased with their visit, and especially with the Micheline quilts made at the Swift mill. Capt. Davis said that as a southern man and Georgian he was proud <>f Columbus, ami that it exhibited more evidence of energy and progress than any city in the ^tate. Personal. Master Fred Lee returned from Baltimore la«t night, accompanied by his cousin. Miss Georgia Flynn, of Atlanta. Mrs. Dr. Jeter, of Opelika, is visiting the city, the guest of Judge Porter Ingram. Mr. and Mrs. John C. Cook and Mr**. K. J. Johnson left for Hamilton yesterday to spend a few days. Dr. and Mrs. Jordan and Miss Katie Battle have returned from New York. Misses Julia Collins. Ida Singleton and Emmie Willis are the guests of Miss Bennie Crawford. The Delegates \ppoiuted. Bv virtue of the resolution of the mass meeting ordering the primary election for governor, Mr. C. A. Redd, chairman of the Gordon club, has appointed the following delegates to represent Muscogee county in the gubernatorial conven tion: Ex-Governor Smith, G. E. Thomas, Esq.. J. W. Jackson and J. W. Johnston: alternates, E. E. Yonge, J. F. Flournoy. T. S. Fontaine and Price Gilbert. If any of these gentlemen cannot attend the convention, they are requested to notify Mr. Redd so that he can make another appointment. Evans A Howard. The above named firm of young druggists have just bought out the business of J. P. Turner Jfc Bro., and will continue the business at their old stand, as will be seen by their advertisement in another column. Messrs. Evans & Howard are fully up to the modern standard, which requirers a druggsst to he educated, thorough and careful. A prescription written wrong and sent to them would be deterred at once, and their patrons run no risks. Their goods arc as cheap as they can be sold after being honestly bought, and their representation as to quality cau be implicitly re lied upon. A prosperous career may be predicted for them in their new venture. Those who de serve it. succeed. Grimes the SeronJ Choice. Sheriff Lipscomb, of Heard county, is in the city. In conversation with an Enquirer-Sun re porter last night, he said that the report that Col. Harris is the second choice of the congressional district of Heard county is incorrect. Ho says that he knows positively of his own knowledge • that three of the delegates will support Hon. Thomas W. Grimes for second choice, and he be lieves the other two will do the same. The vote "of the county was about 240 for Freeman, and 195 for Grimes, which is most complimentary to the latter gentleman who is comparatively un known to the people of Heard, sheriff Lipscomb is a very intelligent and observant gentleman, and he says he confidently believes that If Mr. Grimes goes into the convention with sixteen votes ftom this cud of the district, he will be nominated. The delegates from Heard county arc I J. Stephens. M T. Aubrv, F. s. Lofton. P. M. Strickland and M. T. Almond.

Tho annual meeting of the stockholders of the Mobile and Girard railroad was held at the old depot building in Girard yesterday morning at 11 o’clock. A large number of the stockholders, ac companied by their families, came up on the ex cursion train from points along the route of the road. On motion of Mr. G. W. Dillingham, the meet ing was organized by the election of Judge W. H. Brannon as chairman, and on motion of Mr. N. N. Curtis. Mr. J. M. Frazer was elected secretary. I Messrs. G. Gunby Jordan, G. W. Dilllingham and J. M. Frazer were appointed a committee to , ascertain if a majority of the stock was represent ed. The committee reported in the affirmative. The annual reports of the officers were received, and on motion of Mr. Jordan their readiug was suspended, as they had already been published. ' Mayor Grimes, of the special committee ap pointed at the last annual meeting to investigate 1 the books and affairs of the company, stated that the committee had performed its duty and made a report,which had already been published. The committee had nothing to say in addition to what was said in that report. On motion of Mr. Peabody the thanks of the meeting were tendered the committee and it was discharged. , Mr. Dillingham offered the following resolu tion : Resolved. That the chair appoint a committee three to confer with the authorities of theC’en- tral Railroad and Banking Co. of Georgia with the power to act in effecting a lease of the Mo bile and Girard railroad for a period of ninety- nine years, at a rate not less than two per cent, per annum. Captain Roaui suggested to Mr. Dillingham that if he wanted to have any success he had better omit the limit. Mr. Dillingham replied that he would like to have more if possible. Mr. Peabody suggested that the power to make the lease should not be given the committee. He thought the committee should have only power »o negotiate the lease, and the board of directors effect it upon the terms agreed upon by the com mittee. Mr. Dillingham accepted the suggestion and the resolution as amended was as follows: Resolved. That the chair appoint a committee of three to confer with the authorities of the Cen tral Railroad and Banking company of Georgia for the purpose of effecting a lease of the Mobile and Girard railroad for a period of ninety-nine years at a rate for dividend of not less than two dollars per share per annum upon capital stock, and four dollars per share on preferred capital Mock . and if said negotiation is successful then they shall report same to the board of directors of this company, who shall be authorized and are instructed to complete the lease. J. M. Russell, Esq., asked if under the resolu tion the road could be leased to any other than , the Central railroad. The chairman replied that the resolution looked only to negotiations with the Central railroad. Mr. Russell asked if the Central railroad held a majority of the stock, what was the necessity of the resolution ? Mr. Peabody said the Central does not own a majority of the stock. Air. Murphree, of Troy, moved that the mini mum of two per cent, be stricken out. The mo- tion wue seconded by Capt. J. W. Woo?folk. 1 Mr. Russell moved that the portion of the reso lution restricting negotiations to the Central rail- load be stricken out. and negotiations be left opc-n to the world. Mr. Peabody seconded the motion. Captain Raoul, in speaking on Mr. Murphree's motion, -aid he did not know whether the Cen tral railroad would be willing to pay two cent •»u the capital stock of the Mobilennd Girard rail road or not. He said the net earnings of the Mobile and Girard were gradually decreasing. The rates fixed by the commission had done much in decreasing the earnings. The extension of the Columbus and Western railroad will further decrease them, and the probable extension of the Montgomery Southern threatens another de crease, Again, when the $80n,000 of bonds fall <lue on which an interest of four per cent, is now- paid. it can not he hoped that they can be renew ed at as low a rate of interest. He thought the r ad, however, would be more valuable if leased to some other system than if run as an independ ent line. He did not think, however, that the Central would he willing to pay two percent, un der the present conditions. He thought it better f«»r all interested to omit the two per cent, restric tion. Mr. Peabody suggested that the committee should be permitted to negotiate with any com pany that should desire to lease the road. He had given much thought to the subject and wanted to see the road leased to the very best ad vantage to the city of Columbus. He believed the conimirtee should be given power to make , tlu* best terms it can and report to a called meet ing ofthe stockholders. Mr. Russell concurred in tile views of Mr. Pea body. Dr. Banks opposed Mr. Peadody’s suggestion. He did not believe that the Central railroad would make any offer if the lease were thrown upon the market, lie referred to the effort to lease the road fifteen yiars ago, and said that if the matter had been properly managed he be lieved the road could have been leased for 3 or 4 percent, lie did not believe in going about hawking the road upon the market. Nobody , would be apt to make an oiler. He was opposed to striking out tlu* minimum. If the Central did not want to gi\e 2 per cent., the committee can report that fact to the stockholders, and they will be in in* worse condition than at present. Tlu* Central, lie said. hail endorsed over a mill ion dollars ofthe company’s bonds and would no doubt do the best it could, but that company was not a bidder for the lease and would make no of fer. Mr. \Yo» ifolk <1 that Dr. Bunks was mistaken in saying that there was a limit in the first prop osition fifteen years ago to lease the road. Tlie iccord*. *lu>w that the committee was not limited. Ho also took a more hopeful view of the condi tion of the road than Capt. Raoul. The last re port of t ol. Wadley was very encouraging. While it may In true that the $800,000 of bonds bearing 1 per cent, cannot be renewed at as low a rate, the homls hearing 8 per cent, can he replaced by ti per cents, or probabh less, so that after 1889 the annual interest which the company will have to pay will be at least $5,000 less than at present. He also called Dr. Bank}-’attention to the fact that the records did not show that the Central railroad was endorser on the bonds of the comp my for over a million dollars, and if such was the case, it was at their own instance. Dr. Banks said that the committee appointed in 1871 appointed a sub-committee, which was limited, and the Central refused to lease the road. He said that it is a fact that the Central is en dorser on over a million dollars of the company’s bonds. Captain Raoul said his statements in reference to the condition ofthe Mobile and Girard were not intended to discourage anybody, but were made upon his honest convictions, experience and observation. No one hoped more earn estly than he to see the road leased to the best advantage, but lie Mill believed that the Central would be unwilling to pay two fW cent. Mr Jordan thought that the directors should tervention of a committee and the minimum should be fixed at two per cent The road is in good condition with a debt of only $12,000 a mile, and a new steel rail track and good rolling stock, j and he believed Captain Raoul and the directors j j ofthe Central railroad, upon reflection, will be ; 1 willing to pay two per cent, as a business trims- i | action. | Captain Raoul said that speaking as an indi- j vidual, he did not believe the Central would pay two percent. He would suggest again that the j minimum be stricken out. He would be willing, so far as he is concerned, to pay something to avoid the suspicion that the Central is operating I the road against the Interest ofthe stockholders, but he would not be willing to pay 2 per cent. Mr. Dillingham offered the following as a sub- j stitute for the original resolution and amend ments: Resolved, That the stockholders of the Mobile | They Hold Their Regular Meeting.

The city council held its monthly meeting yes terday afternoon at 5 o’clock. A full board was present except Aldennen McEachren and Jo seph. The minutes ofthe last meeting were read and approved. The following monthly reports were submitted: ! !

There were twenty-seven in the capital stock. colored cemetery, of which seven were non- Kesolved, That Messrs. Jordan, Blgesand War- nock shall be added to the directory in this nego- , tiation, ar.d the judgment and decisions of these gentlemen shall be final. Mr. Russell renewed his amendment to strike out the Central railroad and give the committee power to negotiate with anybody. Mr. J. S. Garrett opposed Mr. Russell's amend ment because thpre is no other company besides the Central that will lease the road. Mr. Peabody proposed to strike out the Central and give the directors free scope. Captain Roaui said he did not desire to appear a* opposing that proposition because the Central desired to lease the road, but the Central had a large interest in it which it was bound to protect. He could not stand by and see the road leased to another company that might totally disregard that interest He thought the Central should have a voice in the matter of leasing the road. Mr. Dillingham then offered the following as a substitute for the whole matter: Resolved. By the stockholders of the Mobile and Girard railroad at the annual meeting as sembled. that the boar-1 of directors of this com- 1 pany are hereby authorized to lease the Mobile and Girard railroad to the Central railroad and Banking company, of Georgia, cr to any other parties the said Central railroad and Banking : company shall approve, for a period of ninety- nine '99- years upon such terms as said board may consider to the interest of the stockholder, provided the terms of the lease are agreed to bv Messrs. G. Gunbv Jordan. A. Illges and Jas. T. Warnock. A stork vote was called for upon tlu* above resolution and the result was 8328 shares in favor of and none agaimt the resolution. Mr. Russell offered an amendment that the ne gotiations be referred back to a called meeting of the stockholders for approval. A vote was taken on the amendment and it was lost, only one vote being cast in its favor. A vote was then taken on Mr. D llinghani's 1 substitute fi r the whole, and it was*unanimously adopted, 8328 votes being cast. ELECTION or OFFICERS. The chair announced that the next business in order was the election of a president and board of directors, Mayor Grimes nominated the following ticket, which was unanimously elected: For President—W.

Sands, and at the latter, by assistance of Dr. Marcoe, he had ample facilities for pur suing surgery in its various branches. The ! well-known reputation of these eminent surgeons, and the uuequaled facilities the metro politan hospitals afford, make a visit of this character entertaining and instructive to one who has achieved a reputation in the fascinating profession of surgery. From a card in another column his patients and friends will see that Dr. Jordan has resumed his practice. All of these extend a hearty greeting, and among them none more cordially than ourselves.
