INTERESTING COTTON STATISTICS.
TRIBUTES TO THE DEAD.
EXPRESSIONS FROM THE PRESS REGARD
ING THE LATE JUDGE SMITH.
The following extracts from the press of
this section upon the death of the late
Hon. J. M. Smith, judge of the Chatta
hoochee circuit, show the high estimation
in which this distinguished citizen was
held:
The death of ex-Governor Jane s Milton
Smith at his home in Wynnton,on Tuesday,
is the third of prominentand distinguished
Georgians within a week—Bishop Beck
with and Dr. Lipscomb preceediug him.
Judge Smith has made himself a name in
Georgia’s history which will stand in flat
tering comparison with her greatest sons.
He was a big brained, fearless man, delib
erate in his conclusions and firm in his
convictions.—Albany News.
Another distinguished Georgian is no
more. Ex-Governor James M. Smith died
in Columbus on Tuesday. He was Judge
of the Chattahoochee Circuit. He was the
first Democratic Governor after reconsti uc-
tion, and his strong, firm, wise and honest
hand brought order out of chaos. Georgia
owes him a debt of gratitude. The glory of
a State is the virtue, patriotism and deeds
of its public men.—LaGrange Reporter.
The death of ex-Governor James Milton
Smith removes one of the most striking
and unique figures in public life in Georgia.
He was a man of strong individuality and
of iron will. He made a good Governor of
Georgia when it required greater powers to
fill the executive chair than now, and he
made a good Railioad Commissioner. In
fact he filled all the places to which he
was ever called with credit and distinction,
and he left his impress on the day in which
he lived. Peace to his ashes.—Amerieus
Times.
The death from paralysis of this distin
guished Georgian, which occurred at his
home in Columbus, Ga , on Tuesday last,
was received throughout the South
with profound sorrow.
Governor James M. Smith was truly a
great man, and filled many positions of
honor and public trust with great credit to
himself and to the benefit and satisfaction
of the people. He was in every sense a
self-made man—one who, by extraordinary
force of character, unswerving integrity,
inflexibility of noble purpose and supe
rior native intellect, won his way
from comparative obscurity to some of
the highest ollicial positions within the
gift of His people. At the time of his
death he was serving as Judge of the Chat
tahoochee circuit, in which responsible
position he gave the greatest satisfaction
to the bar and the country. As a member
of the State Legislature: as a member of
the (!onfed«rate Congress; as Judge and
Governor, he discharged every duty faith-
and well, and well deserved the
plaudit so universally accorded him,
“Well done, good and faithful servant.”—
Gainesville Eagle.
Ex-Governor Smith died at his home in
Columbus last Tuesday after a brief ill
ness. He was but little beyond sixty years
of age, but bad held some of the highest
_ offices in the gift of his state. Governor
The charitable people should look after y m jth was a braiuy Georgian and ranked

familiar with the case and will, doubtless,
furnish Mrs. Armstrong with all the nec
essaries of life until her condition is im
proved.
A brilliant marriage was celebrated on
North Railroad street Wednesday evening,
in which Mr. Luther Story and Miss Edna
Morris were the contracting parties. The
marriage was performed by Kev. W. B.
Carter. The happy couple have the hearty
congratulations of a large number of
.friends.

Vindicator.
The entire State of Georgia, especially
the Chattahoochee Circuit, of which he
has been Judge for several years, w ill re

first Democratic Governor of Georgia in

warehouse circles as to the number of
bales Columbus will receive this season.
Estimates range all the way from 70,000 to
100,000 bales.
For the information of those who are
interested in this subject, statistics for the

In 1867-68 Columbus warehoused 85,-
685 bales. Half was in by December 18,
when the price of low middling was 12e.

THK PUBLIC SCHOOLS. ___
Public sentiment on this most itnpor- cured at the opera house Monday.
taut subject is daily growing in our city.
It Is being developed and strengthened by
the successful efforts of the Board of Edu
cation. While the public schools were
operated ami controlled by the County
Superintendent of Education through a
subordinate officer known as a Beat Super
intendent and was dependent entirely upon
a pro rata share of the State school fund
for existence and support, the sentiment
against public schools grew very strong.
This arose from 'he fart that the funds
were not sufficient to run the schools
longer than three months. This short
term cou’d not be supplied with enough
teachers to meet the requirements of me
great number of scholars.
But since this matter was placed in the
hands of a chartered Board ot Education,
the situation lias changed. The State
fund has been augmented by an annual
appropriation of 20 per cent of the gross
revenue of the ctLy. This etiange has en
abled the school board to buy a nice school
lot for each race and to erect on each ele
gant and commodious buildings, and to
employ a corps of teachers eqtutl to any in
the State and to lengthen the school term
to eight months. The various depart
ments of all the schools are full, anti iL
will soon be necessary for the board to
builtl more houses to meet the demands of
a growing anil prosperous city. Ret every
good citizen put his shoulder to the wheel
and help, by every feature of encourage
ment, the public-spirited sehool board.
The board has just placed an order for
a lot of splendid new desks and charts.
These will be ready for use after cite
Christmas holidays, and will atld greatly
to tlie appearance anti comfort of the
sehool rooms. \

A Young Coi.umbusitb Promoted.—
Mr. J. W. Painter has been promoted to
the important position of resident engineer
on the east end of the Macou and Atlantic
railroad. The appointment was made yes
terday. Mr. Palmer, who is an old Colum
bus boy, and has relatives and hosts of
friends in Ibis city, went with tiie Macon
Construction Company about one year ago
as assistant engineer in the construction of
the Macon and Birmingham railroad. He
was afterwards made assistant engineer on
the upper end of the Macon and Atlantic,
and then promoted to his present position.
He is a young man, and his promotion to
so important a position is highly credita
ble.
Green Hill a Regular Station—
Green Hill, hitherto a flag station on the
Columbus Southern road, has been made a
regular station and Capt. B. F. Davis has
been installed as agent. (.’apt. Davis will
also carry on a large mercantile business
at Green Hill, and Mr. E. M. Averett, lias
has just built a hand-ome storehouse at
that Place. Green Hill is on a boom.
The New Independent Boat.—The
new steamer being constructed at the
wharf for Carter A Bradley, Farmer, Keiiy
ifc Co. and others, is nearly completed, and
will be launched in about two week.-. The
builders say the new steamer will be the
lightest boat on the river, and her owners
intend making Iter the queen of the Chat
tahoochee. The new steamer lias not yet
been named, and it is likely to he chris
tened after a popular Columbus lady. It
will be au independent boat, run in the
interest of the merchants and business
men of Columbus.
The Apalachee, the new steamer jnst
completed at Wheeling, W. Va., for the
People’s Line, is now en route to Colum
bus, and will arrive before January 1. The
two new steamers are desirable additions
to Columbus' river fleet.
The Late Fip.e.—The loss by the fire
at the gas house Friday night is estimated
at $200, no insurance. A part of the ma
chinery 7 was damaged to the extent of
$125, which was the principal lo-s occa
sioned by the lire. The gas was shut off
for only a short time. Stonewall No. 4
had the first stream of water on the fire.
This is one of the best anil most active
companies in the depart merit, which is
now one of the finest and most efficient in
the South.
