BURBLING* AMONG TIE RAILROAD*.
Tk. t.atral aail Ita JUssgsaest— 1 The lut T.a-
atssee an* Florida—Other Railroad Hatton.
The Central railroad and Ito future manage
ment teems to be the all-absorbing topic of con-
Toreatlon In railroad circlet. The Augusta
Chronlole of yesterday haathe following on the
subject:
“Railroad matters are attracting a east amount
of attemiou In Georgia at present. Central la
atlll on a hurrah. It opened yesterday morning
at 108 and closed last night at 112 bid, and strong
Inquiries for it. Wnether or not the rumors of
the dhleof Mrs. Green’s stock is tbeoause of this
rise is not known. But it is quite evident that
the parties desiring control are making a ltvol y
fight. Nearly a thousand shares changed hands
in Augusta yesterday."
ALBXANDHR IN TUB RACB.
A Savannah special says; Central stock opened
at 108 to-day and Jumped to 112J4. Three thou
sand shares changed hands. The announcement
was made this afternoon upon advices Horn New
York that Mrs. Green had sold 6480 shares to
Augusta parties in the interest of Alexander at
140, and that there was now no doubt about the
fight being made for the presidency of tbe road.
ANOTUBR BOAD SCOOPED.
The following speaks for itself)
Savannah, Novombar 17.- The reported pur
chase of the East Georgia and Florida railway by
the Savannah, Florida and Western caused a
stir in railway circles here to-day. The report is
generally believed; although it Is not officially
announced. It Is stated the Savannah, Florida
and Western will build the road from Jesup to
Folkstone, fifty-three miles, making a shortcut
into Florida, and will also build a branch line at
St. Mary’s opposite Fernandina.
The price paid for tho road is Bald to be $500,-
000, which Includes new iron bridges aud other
material recently purchased In this and other
cities. Tho route will shorten the distance from
New York lo Jacksonville, Florida, eighteen
miles. No surrey has been made from Jesup lo
Folkstone, but engineers will be started out at
once. These unexpected movement! are sup
posed lo have been caused by the Clyde steam
ship system attempting to secure control of the
Florida business. President Plant will be here
this week when the expected repart of the sole
will bo confirmed. The proposed line of the East
Georgia and Florida road was Jacksonville via
Harts road, Jesup and Millen, to Augusta.
General Railroad Gossip.
A special from Blakely, Ga, says: Capt. Mc
Donald, chief field engineer of (he Georgia Cen
tral, left here yesterday with a corps of assistants
to make a preliminary survey of a route to
Columbia, Ala. If the railroad is extended to
that point It will open up a good trade to the
wholesale merchants of Macon, as Columbia re
ceives a great deal of cetton and does a large
business, and is tbe distributing point for a large
area of country in southeast Alabama.
The sub-contractors for the grading of the M.
and A. railroad, in order to accommodate several
parties, are now proposing to sub let the grading
to farmers on the route, and all others who may
wish, in sections from a station (fifty yards) to
any length they may wish. This will enable
farmers to utilixe every day during the winter
when not engaged on their farms.
The Madison Madisonian says that “the work
on the Macon and Madison railroad is steadily
progressing. The new contractors are men of
path at well as of means and will very soon have
300 more hands at work grading the road. 'They
expect to have them at work within ten days.
Whan this is done our people will be agreeably
surprised atrthe rapidity with wbloh the grading
nears completion."
The Athens Banner lays: From a party just
from Montioello we learn that eight miles have
been finished between Montioello and Madison,
and that there are six utiles unfinished between
where the hand* ate now at work and the old
road bod of the Madieon, Griffin and Mnntlcello
railroad. Mr. Wright, of North Carolina, who
has charge of a force of 1090 bands, will tave
charge of Mr. Smith’s contract, with his con
victs, and put them to work Monday morning
next and pusn the road through. Twenty-three
miles of rails have been laid between Macon and
Mouticello, lacking only seventeen miles to com
plete tho track. The contractors arc putting
down u mile and a half of track daily.
Tho Augusts correspondent, of the Charleston
News and Courier says; “It is learned to day
from a reliable source that the Pennsylvania
Central railroad is desirous of making connec
tion through Georgia, and kns made a b d of par
for all first mortgage bonds of the Covington and
Macon railroad, provided control be given them,
but the present owners are not desirous ol part
ing with their property, knowing it to be more
valuable.ana its future prospect more ilattering.
The road runs through the heart of Ueorgii,
from Athens to Macon."
WRECKED ON THE RAIL.
A far Breaks in Two ami Pauses the Delay or a
Number of Trains.
Yesterday morning about 1 o’clock an accident
occurred at Box Springs, on the Southwestern
railroad, which, though apparently insignificant,
caused a delay of several hours to all trains on
tho road. It was caused by a car loaded with pig
Iron on the through froight from Montgomery
to Macon breaking in two. Two or three cars
were wrecked and nearly one hundred yards
of track was torn up. Fortunately no one was
hmt. A force of bauds went to work early yes
terday morning repairing the damages, but it
was about 4 o’clock in the afternoon before trains
could pass tbe scene. The passenger train from
Macon, due here at 1:95, did not arrive until
nearly 6 o’clock. It left at once for Opelika and
returned almost oil schedule time. Tile freight
trains were delayed even longer thau the pas
senger trains, but the track is now in perfect
order aud schedules have been resumed.

“And whilo we contemplate the infinite power
of God in earthquake, flood and storm, let tho
grateful heart of those who have been shielded
from harm through His merct be turned in sym
pathy aud kindness towards those who have suf
fered through' His visitation. Let us also in the
midst of our thanksgiving remember the poor
and needy with cheertol gifts and alms, so that
our service may by deeds of charity be made ac
