A (I vii need in Atlanta.
Columbus five per cent, bonds have advanced
ten points in Atlanta in past three days. It is
presumed that either the Louisville and Nashville
Is '’scooping” them all up, or that the .ext ra funds
that would have gone up as gate-money in the
Bavannah-Atlanlu championship games, and
didn't, have gone Into these securities. Anyway
the advance has occurred. We get the informa
tion fVom the vuluahle column of stock and bond
quotations of that wide-awake journal, the Con
stitution. These bonds are nearly us high now
in Atlanta as they are in Columbus.
Death of Mrs. Jnttof k. Williams.

Daniel Minin, and landed in New Orleans. They
located at Joseph, Flu., and Dr. Mnnn died in
1841. After his death she went back to Scotland
and remained a year. On her return to America
she married Mr. Edward Williams and settled at I
Apalachicola. They came to Columbus about j
fifteen years ago and Mr. Williams died in a short |
time,leaving her u widow thu second time. Being j
a woman of indomitable energy, she relied upon !
her own exertions for n livelihood, and all Co
lumbus can testify to her success. She was a
truly good woman and a valuable and devoted
member of the Episcopal church. She was much
beloved by nil who knew her, and the announce
ment of her death will carry sorrow to many
hearts. She leaves one daughter, Mrs. Agnes
Summers. Messrs. Daniel. Robert and Stuart

Continuing the Connections to Insure
Prosperity to Columbus.
Let's Add the Columbus Southern to the Georgia
Midland and the Birmingham Extension—Rum
blings Heard from the Georgia Midland—The
Doad to Elorenee—Other Railroad News and
Notes.
The great good that the building of new rail
roads to Columbus will do Cor the beautiful
Queen City of the Chattahoochee is almost in
calculable. Our people are coming to appreciate
this. The evidences are unmis akable, and we
can think of nothing more encouraging.
The roads that are just flow attracting public
attention are the Georgia Midland and Gulf and
the Columbus and Western extension to Bir
mingham. Both of these are absolute facts -
something that is very gratifying to the En
quirer-Sun, as its statements made a year ago
now partake of the nature of a prophecy. When
Mr. G. Gunby Jordan resigned his position at the
Engle and Phenix mills the Enquirer-Sun said
that it was an assurance of the certain and rapid
building of the road. Mr. Jordan’s energy in be-
hal f of the city which is honored by his citizen
ship will not stop with the enterprise which he
bus carried to such a successful culmination. We
know the man, is our explanation for this asser-
j tion.
But the enterprise that Columbus should foster
• now is the Columbus Southern. True this has
| taken no definite shape, hut it is in the minds
| anil hearts of the people. Now is the time to get
it in shape, and while we are not a prophet or the
son of a prophet, the people of Columbus may
confidently expect to see this enterprise material
ize into something tangible if we will act together.
This paper is not given to sensations, and we
feel guaranteed from circumstances in the pre
diction.
When the committee were soliciting subscrip
tions to the Georgia Midland and Gulf road,
Romo of the most wealthy and enterprising citi
zens of Columbus declined to become subscribers.
They candidly gave their reasons for the refusal,
and expressed tlioir anxiety for n railroad to con
nect with the Florida system to the
south of us. We can at this moment
recall numbers of them who thus
expressed themselves, and they are among
the best men in the city—men of pluck, energy,
enterprise and wealth, and who always use their
money as their better judgment dictates. Now
is tlie time for them to get together and put this
mutter in shape. The city is ripe for it, and there
will be little difficulty in raising the amount
necessary for Columbus to pay in order to have ns
successful an enterprise us characterized the
Georgia Mid.and. In fact, the public spirited
gentlemen who have # so earnestly
desired to obtain this road could
easily raise whnt would be required
fYom Columbus There is no use iu talking about
other people building roads for us, we must lend
a helping htuid if we get them. Points all along
the line will join in this project, as they have 1
longbcen waiting an opportunity for its construe- j
tion.
What say our people, then—will they inaugu- j
rate this enterprise V Someone must take hold j
of it, if anything is done. There arc prominent
manufacturers, merchants and other business
: men among those who have already said they :
would subscribe to the road. Let them put the i
ball in motion. Get together, talk over the mut
ter, and formulate a plan of operation. Our peo- j
pie have the greatest confidence in Mr. Jordan, j
and he could doubtless be induced to lend valua- I
hie assistance, and even become the leading spirit j
in it. Let these capitalists suggest the matter to
him, and see whether or not wo are correct. This
is stated without any authority fYom Mr. Jordan,
but he is a gentleman of so much enterprise, and
has the interest of Columbus so deeply at heart,
that we have taken the liberty of making the
suggestion.
Do this and in less than sixty days, the word of
the Enquirer Sun for it, there will be a corps of
engineers in the Held
HEAD THE ECHOES.
increased consumptive demand at home. Colum-
bus quickly feels the improved state of trade in
textiles. Our people have large interests in this
industry. The mills are making and paying div
idends. Most, if not all, of them are sold square
ly up or ahead of production. One of our large
mills yesterday, upon receipt of a telegraphic or-
1 der for two hundred bules, through a traveler,
accepted it and wired him to come home, as the
assortment wus too broken to continue to accept
more large orders. Trade in woolens, quilts,
plain and colored cottons, thread corduge, cloth
ing and all other Columbus manufactured goods
continues to lie active. While prices are low,
they are fairly remunerative, and this is better
than spasmodic booms. Operatives are well paid
ami happy, capital is getting some slight return
on its outlay, and Columbus is prospering.

Tin* Second Do|it 1st ClnirHi.
The Second Baptist church has closed a pro
tracted meeting which started itself unexpected
ly to every one. On Sunday night, the 8th, after
preaching by Rev. B. W. Bussey, we saw that the
good spirit u*us at work in our midst. This caused
us to protract the meeting through the the
week, Brother Bussey doing all the preaching,
which was greatly blessed to the good of sinners
and the church. On the next Sunday night he
had to close his labors with us to go to his call at
Brunswick. We then procured the help of Bro. R.
H. Harris, of the First church to carry us through
the next week, but he was not able to preach but
two surmons for us before lie was taken sick,
w hich caused us to have to close with the fol
lowing result: Five received by experience, three
by letter and one restored, and the members
greatly revived. May the Lord continue the
good work in our midst.

A (’aril to the Citizen* of Ilron neville.
I have been charged with rendering assistance
to the board of county commissioners in raising
tax assessments on Browneville property. I take
this method of publicly declaring the charge to
be unfounded, malicious and false from first to
last. I had nothing whatever to do with it and
knew nothing of the object of Mr. Taylor’s, the
commissioner, visit to our town. I have letters
j from Judge Frazer and Mr. Taylor, both denying
in positive terms that I ever gave one word of
information to the court or any member of it on
the subject. These letters are open to any one
who may wish to properly inform himself in the
matter. These base reports have been injurious
to my private character and to my business, and
he who repeats them in future will do so with a
full knowledge that they are a lie. The letters
referred to are too len gthy for publication, but I
have them at my place of business, and you are
invited to call and read and know for yourselves.

Mutual Life I’olicie* Ag-itiii.
I A short time ago Mr. William Heath, of Lake-
wood, N. J., died. Many years ago he took out
two policies of insurance in The Mutual Life In
surance Company of New York, one for $15,000
and the other for $5000. When these claims were
settled the company paid $24,733, the $4733 being
a portion of the dividends which Mr. Heath had
allowed to remain unused. The total premiums
paid amounted to $6139.89, so that the company
returned $18,953.11 more than he had paid in, or
$4.04 for every dollar invested. This is only one
of the thousands of illustrations of the advantage
of selecting The Mutual Life Insurance Company
of New York, which is the largest and strongest
company in the world, and which, by strict econ
omy of management, is enabled to make better
returns to its policy-holders than any other com
pany.—Atlantic City Review.

Charles E. Adams, of Springfield, Mass.? had a
life policy of $1000 in The Mutual Life Insurance
Company, which amount was paid to his heirs

■ South Braintree, Mass., had an endowment pol-
j icy in the same company which matured and was
i paid to him, the total amount being $1231.82.
