Jackson, of the composing room force of the Enquirer-Sun, entered upon his sixtieth year on yesterday. He is by far the oldest printer in Columbus, though lie is yet healthy, stout and vigorous, and appears good for many years to come. He has always done his work well, and is making a clean record as lie goes along through life. His friends hope lie may be spared many happy years of life. Mr. Jackson began as a printer in Eufaulu in 1814 during the Clay ami Polk campaign. He came to Columbus in ’53 and commenced work with Lamar & Ellis, of the Columbus Times. ’There were published in Columbus at that time the Columbus Times, the Columbus Enquirer, the Corner Stone and a monthly agricultural pa per edited by Messrs. Chambers A Peabody. All of these combined had a force of only about twenty printers and editors. He is the survivor of the number now engaged in the business. Tho Enquirer and Times had just commenced the publication of tri-weekly papers, and published seven or eightcolumns of reading matter every other day, which was thought at that time to be very enterprising. There were no press dis patches and no night work, and the expenses of the four offices at that time were not equal to one- third of that of the Enquirer-Sun of to-day. Marriages Yesterday. Mr. William A. Ward and Miss Eliza J. Barden, daughter of the late Mr. J. W. Barden, were married at the residence of the bride yester- duy morning at 7:30 o’clock, Rev. G. G. N. Mac- donell performing the ceremony. The bride is one of Columbus’ most popular and charming young ladies, and is well known and beloved. The groom is n progressive young farmer of La- Fayette, Alu. All who know them extend their best wishes. They departed for La Fayette, their future home, at 8:20 o’clock, amid a shower of rice, old shoes and good wishes. May all their expectations be realized. Mr. J. A. Ramsey, of LaFayette, Ala., and Miss Jennie Watt, of this city, were married at the residence of the bride’s mother, on Second avenue, at 7 o’clock yesterday morning, Rev, R. if. Harris performing the ccreihony. The bride possesses all the good qualities, accomplishments and graces to adorn a home. Mr. Ramsey is a gentleman, a progressive farmer, and a mun of prominence and influence in his section. Their many admirers and friends wish them a happy voyage through life. They also left on the same train and for the same destination as did tho former couple. What is Columbus’ loss is La Fayette's gain. Suren Hi. This evening ushers in the Feast of Booths for the Israelites. This festival is designated in Scripture, (see Lev. 23:38*44», as u “Feast of Joys,” and is commemorative of the time when the Israelites after being delivered from Egypt for the first fall season were living in booths. It was ordained then hut intended thereafter when j they shall have couie to Palestine, to become a I thanksgiving festival for the bounties of God’s j blesssiugs received during the past year, as it was t the close of tho harvest, of corn, wine and oil. | The Israelites of the present day celebrate it like j all stated occasions mentioned in Scripture, and | it'it is not a thanksgiving for the corn, wine and oil they gather, it is a thanksgiving for the beam- | ties of God’s blessing, symbolized by those pro- : does his or her work in u most complete way. We looked in vain for a bad or commonplace act. As n circus, it is certainly a success, and in fact ex ceeded our expectations. The show is in every way worthy of patronage.” HOTEL ARRIVALS.

Carlisle, while ro.ving a boat just be low the hospital yesterday morning, was struck by a wave from the Naiad on her down trip, and his boat sunk. Mr. Carlisle says that he went down in about thirty feet of water. His gun and ammunition went down with him, and, finding himself too much encumbered to swim, he re mained under the water long enough to pull off his coat before attempting to rise to the surface. While pulling ol)' his coat he held his gun botweeu his legs. As ho rose he curried his gun and am munition up with him, but turned his coat loose. After swimming to the bank he saw his coat tloatiug down the river and jumped in again and saved it. He says that he had a hard time in reaching the shore, and that the officers of the Naiad passed on without offering him any assistance. Talk About Artesian Wells. Yesterday eveniug a party of gentlemen stand ing on a Broad street corner were discussing the low river and its effect upon the trade of Colum bus. One gentleman suggested that artesian wells be bored north of the city to supply the river with water. This brought up the subject of artesian wells generally, and one gentleman asked why Columbus could not have at least one. It was suggested that it would be necessary to bore too deep, but it was mentioned that several towns south of Columbus were enjoying the lux ury of artesian water. The final conclusion was that there is no reason why Columbus should not have an artesian well. It now only remains to see who will take the lead in the matter. ducts, viz: Corn, plenty or abundance, wine, health and strength, oil, honor and respect.

There is not much question that Manning, Twitchell, Smith and Gillen will play with the club without reserve. The Enquirer, speaking of Saturday’s Balti- more-Cincinnati game, says : “The greatest feat ure of the game was a remarkable one-handed catch by Sowders in center field. It was in the seventh inning, and Reilly hit a long, high fly to right-center. Sowders ran with the ball for o distance, finally jumping high up in the air and captured it with one hand. In catching it he fell and turned a couple of somersaults, bui he held on to the balk It was one of the greatest catches'ever made on the Cincinnati grounds.” 1 Oak; another was paid through Wells, Fargo A j Co., Bank of San Francisco, Cal.; the 'others de sired their names withheld from publicity.
