his new home. He is much pleased with the
people, with the country and his situation and
surroundings generally.
A Pleasant Affair.
A most enjoyable reception was given by Mr.
and Mrs. G. W. Uordray at their residence, on
First avenue, Monday night, in honor of Mr. T. J.
Cordray and bride, of Harris county. Quito a
largo number of friends and relatives were pres
ent and participated in the exevciscs of the even
ing. Everything passed off most pleasantly,
nothing whatever occurring to mar the pleasure
of any one.
Funeral of .Mr. Morris.
The funeral of Mr. David Morris took place at
3 p. m. at the Second Baptist church yesterday.
The service was conducted by Rev. J. W. Howard.
The remains wore followed to the cemetery by a
large number of the Improved Order of Red
Men, of which he was a member. The following
were the pall-bearers : II. J. Waldroup, A. N. El
liott, David Williams, L. J. Goius, W. Morris and
J. A. Haney.
Some Good Advice.
When merchants have anything to sell they
should not hesitate to let the public know the
facts. Judicious advertising saves the time o'
buyers and makes money for the sellers. There
is not a judicious buyer in Columbus that does
not consult the advertising columns of the
Enquirer-Bun before embarking on a shopping
expedition. By so doing double the work can be
accomplished by them with mucl\ satisfaction
and quicker sales made by the merchant . By
advertising in many instances it enables buyers
to settle in their minds what they will buy be
fore starting out; therefore they will ask for it
when they first go in the store, thereby saving
time for themselves and the merchant or clerk*.
Important Real Estate Sales.
There were two or three important sales of real
estate yesterday. Dr. R. J. Bruce sold his place
just north of Rose Hill to Mr. 1). R. Bize for $6800.
Mr. Bize also purchased Mr. J. H. Harrison’s
place adjoining that of Dr. Bruce for $3500. It
v-as also reported late yesterday evening that
Mrs. D’Antiguac had sold her plantation
a few miles from the city to a negro
ft r $3000, but we were unable to learn
the purchaser’s name. The sales show that
there is a demand for property near Columbus at
good prices. There is a healthy growth in and
around Columbus and the increased prosperity
of the city' cannot be denied. Columbus must
and will flourish, and if everybody will put a
shoulder to the wheel and push, there will be
such au improvement as has never been known
before.
TIip Juvenile Entertainment.
The Juvenile Mission Society of St. Paul church
gave their festival at Hotel Riddle last night. It
was one of the most enjoyable occasions of the
kind that has occurred in Columbus in a long
time. The girls were tastily costumed and were
as pretty as the June roses. The tables were
heavily ladened with all the choice viands and
delicacies of the season, and were served by as
fair hands as ever graced a festal board. Many'
charming and beautiful things were sold, among
them a beautifrilcrazy quilt which brought $25.
The evening was a success as viewed from a
social standpoint. Nor have we ever st en a more
orderly party of guests than those who assem
bled there, and pleasure reigned supreme. The
young folk chatted gaily as they sipped the
chocolate or ate the ice cream and delightful
cake.
The ladies request us to say that lunch will be
served from 11 o’clock this morning until 3 o’clock
this afternoon. They will take great pleasure in
•erving all who call.

NOTES FRO 11 NANCE’S.
A Meeting of Hie OntiigtTs— I’lie Negroes In No
Hurry to Contract—Other Matters of Interest.
Nances, December 28.—Enquirer-Sun: Your
correspondent attended a grange meeting at the
Cataula grange hall on Saturday, where we met
quite a number of the sturdy old farmers of that
community. The grange was presided over by
Worthy Grand Master of the State Grange T. II.
Kimbrough. We think T. 11. K. is the right man
in the right place. Two degrees were conferred.
We had a recess of one hour to partake of one
more good grange dinner. We will not attempt
to describe it, but will say it was sufficient in
quantity and quality to satisfy any reasonable
appetite. After dinner we had a most excellent
speech from Worthy Grand Master Kimbrough
upon the necessity of co-operative aotion of the
farmers, followed on the same line by Hon. J. B.
Roper, Master of Muscogee grange.
We found camped ou the roadside a party of
Dutch, as they called themselves. They have
been camped there for several days trading and
traffioiug with anybody they can induce to their
camp. They have three bears. They pretend to
make them dance, and want pay for the per
formance.
Rev. Mr. Fentress has moved iuto the parson
age at Cataula, and has entered on his work for
the ensuing year. He preached at Shiloh church
last Sabbath on the words, “It is a good thing
for me to draw nigh to God.”
On Monday we were invited to meet at Mr. J.
Moon’s on business pertaining to Kimbrough
lodge. Here wo had the pleasure of meeting Mr.
A. J. Floyd and his good wife, Mr. F. J. Johnson,
Mr. A. B. Lynch and Mr. , one of the cleverest
bachelors we ever met, and » man as fond of
children as any father we ever saw. We think
some woman can yet get a good husband and a
splendid man if they will set for our bachelor
friend, and if any good lady wishes any farther
information she can get it by applying tome.
The freed men are not contracting much yet
Some of them are moving to the city to try their
luck in town. They say they cannot make any
thing on the farm, and those remaining in the
country are not making any, or but few contracts

A Characteristic Letter.
A strikingly characteristic tetter turned up at
the Windsor the other day. It was written by a
drummer, and as the world well knows,
drummers most generally have a way of their
own and n style peculiar to themselves. The
letter was addressed to “E. B. Freeman, or
Harry Hawes, or anybody tlse at the Windsor
Hotel, Montgomery, Alabama.”
The body of the letter was as follows: “Please
forward mail, corner lots, brown stone fronts,
telegrams, good wishes, or anything else that
may come in your care for me to the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, Louisville.”—Montgomery

The Ntephens Monumental Association.
The people of Columbus have much reason for
feeling proud of an opportunity to contribute to
the ftind of the Stephens Monumental Associa
tion. About twenty years ago it was a dark period
in the history of some of the best people in
Columbus, who stood upon the very threshold
of an ignominious death for a crime with which
they had no concern, and by a hand which no
man here had the authority to stay. It was at
that critical moment that Hon. Alexander H.
Stephens gave all his time, his talents, his ener
gies to avert what would have been another
crime as block as ever disgraced pagan history—
the murder of Columbus prisoners.
Mr. Stephens is dead and his bones now quiet
ly repose in the grave. While living Georgia
gave him every honor that it was possible for
them to give. Let them be true to his memory
and erect a monument that will stand to remind
generations now unborn that he lived in this
day and time.
Miss Mary A. H. Gay, the agent of the Stephens
Monument-.] 1 Association, is now in the city and
will remain here a few days. She comes with
the highest commendations, but this is not
needed here, as her good name long since pre
ceded her. She visits Columbus to solicit sub
scriptions in aid of the laudable purposes of the
association, and will give our people au oppor
tunity to contribute to it. All the money re
ceived by Miss Gay will be deposited in one of
the banks of the city, and the name of each con
tributor will be put upou record.
Hon. Henry R. Jackson, of Savannah, thus
speaks of the association and this most estiaiublc
lad y:
‘‘The Stephens Monumental Association was
organized for the purpose of buying Liberty Hall,
the residence of Gov. Stephens, of removing to it
his remains, of erecting upon it a suitable monu
ment in his memory, and of establishing a high
school to be called the Stephens High School.
Mr. W. R. Gunn, the treasurer of the association,
in a letter addressed to myself, speaks of Miss
Gay as ‘our'worthy and efficient agent.’ For
many years past Miss Gay has devoted her life
and her energies to works which involved the
highest interests, the honor and the glory of her
state and of the south It was mainly if not
wholly through her efforts that the means were
obtained for constructing the cemetery at Frank
lin for the confederate dead who fell before that
town; the most beautiful cemetery in the entire
south. She has not yet failed in any work of
this kind which she has undertaken, and I
heartily commend her to your highest respect
and kindest consideration.”
NEWS FROM OI’ELIKA.
Sam Small Makes a Temperance Speech—Other
Notes of Interest.
Special Correspondence Enquirer-Sun.
Opelika, Ala., December 28.—Rev. Sam W.
Small delivered an eloquent lecture on temper
ance at the Methodist church last night. The
house was crowded. Scarcely standing room was
to be had either on the floor or in the gallery.
He portrayed in vivid style his experience from
the bar-room to the pulpit, and warned the peo
pie of whisky, which was the cau-e of bis down
fall. He is an elegant gentleman and a fine
scholar, and it is rarely the people of Opelika
have the opportunity to hear such a celebrated
divine.
Railroad travel is the heaviest known for yeaTs;
all trains are crowded.
Colonel R. J. Trammell’s new building is re
ceiving the finishing touches. There will be a
skating rink in the second story.
There is only one or two eases of sickness here
now. The health of our city is remarkably good.
The calaboose has been used a great deal dur
ing the holidays, many cases of drunkenness
were disposed of during the week.
COTTON FACTS,
Visible Supply—Receipts at Ports—Weather, Eti.
The New York Financial Chronicle of Decem
ber 23 makes the total visible supply of cotton
3,128,484 bales, an increase as compared with last
year of 166,621, a decrease as compared with 1884
of 7823j and a decrease as compared with 1883
of 276,216.
For the week ending December 24 the receipts
at the United States ports reached 283,045 bales,
making the total since September 1,3,319,180
bales, showing an increase of 101,790.
The twenty-six interior towns for the week end
ing December 24 received 180.931 bales, shipped
158,350 and had stocks of 433,534 bales. Same time
last year they received 149,614, shipped 109,534 and
had stocks of 521,319.
The above totals show that the old interior
stocks have increased during the week 18,409
bales and are to-night 87,868 bales less than at
the same period last year. The receipts at the
same towns have been 9322 bales more than the
same week last year, and since September 1 the
receipts at all the towns are 18,962 bales less
than for the same time in 1885.
The exports for the week ending this evenin'?
reach a total of 229,198bales, cf which 136,819 were
to Great Britain, 23,978 to France and 68,401 to
the rest of the continent.
The Chronicle comments on its table of re
ceipts from plantations as follows :
The above statement shows—1. That the total
receipts from plantations since September i, 1886.
were 3,904.651 bales; in 1885 were 3,922,839 bales;
in 1884 were 3.88i,746 bales.
2. —That, although the receipts at the outports
the past week were 283,045 bales, the actual move
ment from plant a,;, mi was 305,626 bales, the bal
ance going to increase the stocks at the interior
towns. Last year the receipts from the planta
tions for the same week were 280,246 bales and for
1881 they were 207.517 bales.
In the table below we give the receipts from
plantations in another form, and add to them
th-» net overland movement to December 1, and
also the takings by southern spinners to the
same date, so as to give substantially the amount
of cotton now in sight.

A Farmer’s Complaint.
Enquirer-Sun:—I wish through your columns
to submit a thought or two for the benefit of
many that are concerned, and it is this: Suppose
Mr. A carries five bales of cotton to Columbus,
and Mr. A sells the five bales to Mr. B
on the street at 9 cents per pound, and each bale
weighs 500 pounds. That would be 2500 pounds.
Mr. A should have for that 2500 pounds of cotton
$225, less 10 cents per bale, which the law allows
for weighing. I think when Mr. A has delivered
the cotton to Mr. B at the warehouse he is not
responsible, nor Bhould not be required to pay
one month’s storage on Mr. B’s cotton.
The farmers annually lose from thirty to fifty
thousand dollars by being made to pay Btorage
on cotton they do not store. T. C. Rees.
Helping the Poor.
During this month of December I have dis
tributed among the poor of this city, white and
colored, twenty-three car-loads of wood, thus
giving temporary supplies to about four hundred
families. With the assistance of some of our
good ladies, I have also given out twelve or fif
teen hundred yards of cloth, furnished by our
factories. I have also put shoes on the feet of
many poor orphans and have done much other
wise for the comfort of the poor. “It is more
blessed to give than to receive.”

eral and encouraging custom extended us through
the Holiday season, and trust that all will re
member us when wanting any goods in our line.
We have a stock frill and complete in every re

determined when we first opened that knowing

would be a sufficient guarantee of their purity,
we have strictly adhered to that resolution, and
guarantee the quality of all goods sold by us. We
make a specialty of Fine Toilet Goods, and have
always in stock all toilet requisites, viz: Per-
fhmes, Powders, Cosmetics, Lotions,Cold Creams,
Soaps, Brushes, Mirrors, Puffs, Sponges, etc. Be
ing the first to carry an extensive line of these
goods we are naturally leaders. All prominent

quently, and Patent Medicines always in stock.
Our Drug and Prescription Department is un
der the supervision of an old and carefhl Pre-
scriptionist, special attention being paid to this
work. We solicit your patronage.
