Rowenville Correspondence.
Editor Times :—There is very little
in the way of local news at this point-
Work on the S. G. & N. A. Rail Road
if* progressing moderately well. The
Messrs Boynton and Massey are gra
ding the sections nearest this place,
and are moving forward finely, consid
ering the continued severe weather.—
We hope by October at furthest to see
the “ Iron horse ” ride up to the
“Hitching post" at Boweiiville.-
Then we expect a considerable little
town—the rival of Carrollton, to
spring up here.
That most terrible of all local mala
dies—Meningitis—is prevailing witVi
fearful and fatal effect among Rail
Road hands and citizens of this vicini
ty. Many of the hands of the Messrs.
Boynton have died, while among the
citizens not more than ten per cent
are likely to recover. Two families
near by, have lost three children each.
Many others, have died also. Now
however, we have a faint hope that
the disease is slowly abating, and with
fair, pleasant weather will soon disap
pear. More anon,
Citizen.

Ed. T imes. —The “hope,” expressed in
an article for the Times from this point
on yesterday relative to the decline of
“ Meningitis” was blasted before

Law Club— The Law Club met on
Tuesday night, and wa3 honored by
the presence of M. H. Fletcher Esq of
Rock Mart.
J. L. Cobb Esq. was called to the
chair. On motion lion. Robert Toombs
Judge W. F. Wright, Hugh Buc
hannan and Oincinnatus Peeples were
elected honorary members of the
society. J. J. Julian Esq delivered a
lecture on the subject of attachinents,
in which he occupied thirty minutes.
His lecture showed a thorough exam
ination of the law, as well as a thor
ough understanding of the subject.
He gave the origin, the nature and
the reason of the law, after which de
bate was opened on the question.
Jessee Blalock leading counsel lor the
plaintiff argued that it plaintiff had no
remedy at common law, that he would
be entitled to relief in equity according
to section 3062 of the Code. J. J.
Julian leading counsel for defendant
argued from common law principles
that the verbal was merged in the
written contracts citing the ca-ieof Lo
gan vs. Bond from the 13th Georgia.
A spirited debate ensued in which
we will say the speakers all did
themselves the honor of using sound
anil substantial arguments. Judge
Cobb held in the negative. The next
question will be: “Is a man justifiable
in killing another for debauching his
wife.” G. W. Merrell will deliver a
lecture next Tuesday night before the
Club. Doors open to all who may
wish to attend.
fi&T Our friends, Dr. J. 11. Russell,
Capt. Jack Smith and Tolbert Mead
ors Esq., left for Texas on last Wed
nesday. They go merely on a visit,
as they have no idea of leaving “old
Carroll” whose future at this time is
so promising. Capt, Smith carried
his gun along, as he expects to kill a
few deer, provided he can’t find'* bars”
of which both wild and domestic, he
is particulary fond. They expect to
remain a month or tw< in the “Lone
Star State,” and we hope they will
have a pleasant visit, and a safe return
to their native heaths.
The Efvkct of not Taking a Pa
per.—Some time ago, a lady noticing
that a neighbor of hers was not in her ,
seat at church, one Sabbath, called on
her return home, and was surprised
to find the family at work. As she en-1
tered her friend addressed her:
“ Why, la! where haveyou been to
day; dressed up in your Sunday
clothes ? ”
“ To meeting.”
“Why, what day is it? ”
“Sabbath-day ”
“Sal, stoj) washing in a minute, it’s
Sunday! Well, I did not know, for j
my husband has got so plaguey stingy
he Won't take the papers now and we
know nothing. Well, who preached?”
“Mr W.”
“What did he preach about? ”
“ It was on the death of our Savior.”
“Why, is he dead? Well, all Carroll
ton might be dead, and we know noth
in" about it. It won’t do we must have
the Times again ; for everything goes
wrong without that paper. Bill has
almost lost his reading and Polly
has got mopish again, because she has
got no poetry or stories to read. Well,
if we have to take a cart-load of po
tatoes and onions to market, I’m re
solved to have the Times.”
Personal. —Mr. E. R. Sharpe, of
the Carrollton Times, paid us a hasty
visit on Monday last. Ed. looks as
fresh and rosy as a green mountain boy.
He is the propeller of a mighty nice
paper, which he represents as being
in a flourishing condition.— Heard

Scribner’s Monthly. —The January,
February and March numbers of this
excellent magazine, the advertisement
of which will be found in another col
umn, have been received. We believe
that we have seen the most of the
magaziues published in this country',
(and the magazines of the United
States are considered the best in the
world,) and we unhesitatingly say that
we think Scribner’s one ot the best, if
not the best , published in the United
States.

The Georgia Western to be
Built. —Major Cam]-bell Wallace,
President of the Georgia Western Rail
road, has opened an office in the James
Bank Block, in this city, and is getting
ready to push this enterprise to com
pletion. He says he is going to build
the Hoad. Those who know Major
Wallace as a railroad man, know just
what this mea is. It means that he
secs his way clearly, and that the suc
cess of the enterprise is no longer prob
lematical.
This will be graitifying intelligence
to the people of Atlanta. The city
has much to expect from this Road.—
It will penetrate one of the richest
mineral regions in Alabama. It will
open one ot the best coal regions in the
Southern States, and will enable man
ufacturers in Atlanta to purchase coal
and iron ore at low prices. This is a
necessary condition to real prosperity
and is what Atlanta needs above all
tilings else. —Atlanta Era.
•From the Atlanta Constitution.
Broad and Narrow Gauge R. R ad-
The several railways having termi
ni at Atlanta, although worked under
separate charters and organizations,
are practically consolidated.
This practic il consolidation is ef
fected through their common interest
by which through rates of freight to
points beyond Atlanta are fixed at
figures below those to this place.—
Whether this be good policy on their
part we will not stop to discuss.
We propose to speak only of the
effects produced upon Atlanta’s inter
ests, and the remedy.
The discriminations against Atlanta
by these “trunk lines,” is retarding
her inarch of prosperity. We canno t
own these lines for the want of means.
If able to contiol even one of them,
we might then demand and secure
concessions.
B&t, being unable to do this, what
istlie next best remedy ? Unquestion
ably the construction ol aline through
the unoccupied territory west of us.
But is Atlanta able to build it, and
control it when done.? Estimating the
distance from Atlanta to Elvton or
Birmingham at 155 miles, and the cost
of broad gauge, at $25,000 per mile,
the total cost will be $3,875,000 or at
$20,000 per mile, $3,100,000.
The narrow gauge at SIO,OOO per
mile would cost $1,550,000, or at $12,-
000 per mile $1,860,000, a saving in
the one case of $2,015,000, and in the
other of $1,945,0)0, in favor of the
narrow gauge. We will not discuss
the ability of the narrow gauge to do
all the business that will offer. Os this
there can be no doubt.
Now let us see what other advan
tages it will offer over that of the
broad gauge.
1. It will give lower rates, because
costing only about half as much as the
broad gauge, and being operated at
less cost, it can do so and still leave a
larger margin for profits than the
broad gauge.
2. Offering lower rates, it will at
tract or draw business a greater dis
tance than the broad gauge, her.ce
will command a larger business.
3. Offering lower rates, it will de
velop interests that the broad gauge
| with its high rates cannot do.
4. Offering lower rates than com
peting broad gauge lines can do, it
will command a monopoly ot the busi
ness. ♦
5 Costing one and half cents per
ton per mile to move fi eight on the
broad gauge, and only one cent on the
| narrow gauge, it will give us cheap
coal.
6. Cheap coal wilt build up manu
factures, and they, in their turn, will
increase our population, and thereby
largely enhance the value of oui real
estate.
Now let us see what difficulties the
broad gauge will have to contend with,
what competition it will have to over
come, and then see whether the nai
row gauge will not accomplish what
| the broad gauge with its higher rates
must necessarily fail to do.
The road from Atlanta to the Ala
bama line, about seventy-five miles,
will run nearly parallel with the Wes
tern and Atlantic on one side, and the
1 Atlanta and West Point on the other.
Neither of these lines command a
heavy business from the section lefei
ed to. It is now divided by the fig-
ure 2. Divide it by 3, and the result
would be a very small busiues tor the
new line. On reaching Carrollton, j
about forty-five miles, there will be a
nharp competition for the business of
that section, the Savannah, Griffin and
and North Alabama drawing business
irom Atlanta to Griffin, Macon and Sa
vanriah.
Passing west from Carrollton about
thirty miles, the line will cross the East
Alabama and Cincinnati Road. Here,
then we will have another competitor j
for Atlanta trade, the East Alabama
and Cincinnati drawing business away
from us to Opelika, Columbus and
Montgomery. Continuing west about
thirty nve miles, the line will cross the
Selma. Rome and Dalton. Competi
tion meets us at this point, the Selma,
Rome and Dalton fighting for Selma,
Montgomery and Dalton. Moving
west about forty-five miles the line
will run for a long distance nearly par
allel with the Savannah and Memphis
Road, which will compete with us for
business of that section. This carries
us to Birmingham. We find then,
that we will meet with sharp competi
tion at four different points in the 155
miles, and from lines that can work as
cheap as we can.
Now let us see how the narrow
guage will work out. Costing only
about one half that of the broad gauge,
it can work for less rates than the
Western and Atlantic on one side,
and the Atlanta and West Point on
the other, hence will command the
largest share of the business. They
cannot compete with it. At Carroll
ton, crossing the Savannah, Griffin and
North Alabama, broad gauge, it can
offer lower rates than its competitor,
hence will command a large business
for Atlanta that would otherwise be
drawn to other points. At the cross
ing of the East Alabama and Cincin
nati broad guage, the same advantages
would hold good in favor of the nar
row gauge.
At the crossing of the Selma, Rome
and Dalton the result would be the
same. At the point where the line
would become a parallel one to tire S.
and M. the narrow guage, from its low
rates, would command a monopoly of
the business of that section. At Bir
mingham it would command all east
ward bound business by its low rates.
It will offer to all interests in the sec
tion in which it is located lower rates
to Atlanta than competing broad
gauge lines could offer to Atlanta’s
competitors, equi distant from the
same shipping point*
This will make Atlanta the favorite
market for that entire section.
It will offer Atlanta merchants and
manufacturers, lower rates to that sec
tion than the merchants and rnannfac
turers of Chattanooga, Montgomery,
Opelika, Nashville and Knoxville can
possible command with their broad
gauge roads, hence will make Atlanta
the favorite market for supplying that
section with dry goods, groceries,
hardware, etc.
Working for less rates at the cross
ings of the brcad gauges, it will be
come the “trunk line,” and the broad
gauges, the side lines or feeders.
In fact the narrow gauge will com
mand absolutely the trade of that sec
tion for Atlanta, while the broad gauge
will only divide with competing lines.
Narrow gauge will make it local in
its character belonging to Atlanta.
Broad gauge will make it general
in its character, a “trunk line,” event
ually owned and controlled by other
interests antagonistic to Atlanta, with
discriminations against Atlanta.
We have thus presented the advan
ta es claimed by the friends of the
narrow gauge.
In future number we will give
the arguments in favor of the broad
guage.
Mark Twain on Woman SuF
frage.— Mark Twain says that when
women frame laws, the first thing they
will do will be to enact:
1. That all men should be at home
at 10 p. m. without fail.
2. that married men should bestow
considerable attention upon their own
wives.
3. That it should be a hanging of
fense to sell whisky in saloons, and
that fines and disfranchisement should
follow in such places.
4. That the smoking of cigars to ex
cess should be forbidden, and smoking
of pipes utterly aboislied.
5. That the wife should have the
title of her own property when she
marries a man that hasn’t any.
“Such tyranny as this,” says Mark
“we could never stand. Our free
souls could never endure such degra
ding thraldom. Woman, go away!
Seek not to beguile us of our imperial
privileges. Content yourselves with
your little feminine trifles—your ba
bies, your benevolent societies, and
your knitting—and let your natural
bosses do the voting. Stand back—
you will be wanting to go to war next.
We will let you teach school as much
as you want to, and pay you half price
too, but beware, we don’t want you to
crowd us too much,”
Look lo Your Imprest.
All pei sons indebted to the under
signed are requested to come and set
tle at once, and save us the unpleasant
task of putting our accounts in the
hands of a collecting officer. We
mean business.

The Jewish Messenger has an
article upon “ Distinctive Judaism," in
which we find this genial paragraph:
God has formed us to be a peeular
people, distinct from all others in re
ligious duties. But here this distinc
tion ends. Iu every good act which
tends to elevate humanity we are co
partners with the world: we rejoice in
their happiness, sympathize with their
sorrows, elevate the lowly and educate
the ignorant. To be plainly and prop
erly understood, we are Jews in the
synagogues; in the walks of life we are
citizens of the world, cosmopolitan in
feeling and sympathy and action.

The Bazar is excellent. Like all the peri
odicals which the Harpers publish, it is al
most ideally well edited, and the class of
readers for whom it is intended —the moth
er and daughters in average families —can-
not but profit by its good sense and good
taste, which we have no doubt, are to-day
making very many homes happier than they
may have been before the woman began tak
ing lessons in personal and household and
