Alderman of the First Ward.
On Saturday last, Mr. M. L Patterson
was elected Alderman of the First. Ward
tn lill the vacancy occasioned by the re
moval of Alderman Croft from the Ward.
tetter from Manager Fleming.
We are in receipt of a letter from Mr.
W. M. I* leming, who is now fulfilling an
engagement in Atlanta, in which he in
forms us that he will visit Columbus with
his full Savannah Theatrical Corps, for a
two weeks’ season, commencing on the
31st instant. The press of Augusta and
Atlanta coincide in pronouncing his infe
rior to no company that has ever visited
Georgia.
The Drama.
To night and four more will close the
performances for the season of Crisp’s
Star Company in our city.. The “Gun
maker of Moscow,” Sylvanus Cobb’s sto
ry in the New Itork Ledger, which has
been in course of preparation, will be
presented for the first time, according to
announcement, to night, together with
“Startling Pictures and Thrilling Com
bats.” The enter aiinnent will conclude
with the melo-drarna, entitled “Robert
Macaire.” The performances will be
enlivened as usual by a variety of music
by the Orchestra, which is an excellent
one. The bill presented will certainly
draw a large house.
A Columbus Gin at the Fair.
The Atlanta Intelligencer of the 21st
says: We examined yesterday a very
fine Cotton Gin, sent by the manufactu
rers, Messrs. Clemons, Grown & Cos., of
Columbus, to be exhibited at the Fair
next week. It is indeed, a fine piece of
mechanism. We will not say its finish is
as beautiful as that of a piano, but we
will say, it is the best finished article of
the kind we have ever seen.
Disclaimer.
We have been requested by Mayor
Wilkins to state that iu his recommenda
tion at the last meeting of the Council to
employ a man to superintend the street
hands, ami which was referred to the
Street Committee, lie had no intention to
reflect upon the City Marshal or the
Deputy. He had no reference to them
whatever, and makes this disclaimer to
remove such impressions, if any have
been made by his recommendation.
“Not Dead, hut Sleepeth !”
Such was the exclamation of a gentle
man yesterday morning at the Post Office,
to a collection of gentlemen on their way
to business, and who had stopped to pro
cure their letters and papers. It was 8
o’clock, and the outer doors were firmly
closed, and no chance to reach their boxes
which contained their correspondence on
| business, or other topics, as it may have’
been. We know that the mail arrange
ments interfere seriously with the slum
bers of the clerks, but the demands of
business are inexorable, and business
men must and will conform to them.
jpiie Dead Cart in Use.
We noticed the dead cart of our city
appropriated to anew and appropriate
use, on Monday afternoon. A creature
of the human form divine got on a drink
ing spree, and took too much strychnine,
or something else, which rendered him
entirely senseless and helpless in the
street. The dead cart, returning from
its mission of mercy to the citizens, came
I upon and quietly took him in charge,
and delivered him over to his friends.—
> Whether Sambo put the rope around his
neck and drew him up into the cart, we
are not informed; but had he done so,
the creature would have been none the
wiser of the proceedings. We did not
know beioro that the cart used for re
moving dead stock from the streets, was
so valuable. Look out., boys, or you will
have the dead cart after you, when your
knees get so weak they let you down in
the streets, and you get into a know
nothing condition.
Tlie Plunk Kami.
Standing in the Warehouse of Messrs.
Greenwood & Gray, a few afternoons
since, wc watched with much iuterest.and
anxiety the efforts of several teams to get
up the hill on the plank road with loads
of cotton bags. The road on the hill is
entirely too narrow for the use of dray
- men, who have to make frequent cuts to
get up. The draymen pay toll on this
road and it is but sheer justice to them
that they should have a double track on
the hill. Will not the company owning
the plank road attend to this matter at
once, and save many a poor mule from
the necessity of haunting them when
their life shall have been pulled out of
them on this hill ? N
Our Street*.
It is very strange that a city having
about eight mules and carts, should be
; suffered to become the common recepta-
I cle of so much filth, especially limbs from
trees. Quite recently some of our citi
l zens trimmed up their trees in their
i yards and threw the branches into the
streets, where they were suffered to lie,
I and for aught we know to the contrary,
y are still there, very much to the annoy
ance of vehicles. Hut we suppose the
i Marshal is crowded with work and has
; not time to remove these obstructions (?)
German Ball.
We were prevented from accepting the
* very kind invitation of mine host of the
I Commercial Hotel to attend the German
t Hall given on Mouday evening. From
those who were present we learn that eve
- ry thing passed off very pleasantly, and the
| young folks danced until the ‘*wee sma’
I hours of morning.'’ A sumptuous supper
was set for the guests by the proprietor of
„• the Hotel, which showed that he knows as
well how to feed as to cater to the pleas
> ing and muscle expanding part of hu

Our Knees.
We are glad to learn that the Messrs.
Fryor, proprietors of the Chattahoochee
Course, have announced a number of club
E purses and sweepstakes to be run for at
| the Fall meeting, which commences on
the 29th of November. Their club purses
are liberal, and the sweepstakes have
I been filled with several entries each.—
I Coming off, as these races will, just after
| the meeting at Montgomery, which will
| be attended by many of the fastest horses
| of the country, we may justly anticipate
Ia renewal of their contest over our Course.
It is one of the best courses in the South,
, and the proprietors use every endeavor
| to accommodate stables satisfactorily.—

Hog* tn Sumner.
The Gallatin (Tenn.) Examiner says
the “hog crop” of Sumner county will
undoubtedly fall far short of previous
years. There will be but little for trade
or exportation.

more women than men, replied:

Theater.
The attendance upon the representation
of Ingomar, the Barbarian, was very flat
tering—much more so than the audience
of Monday evening. There were more
ladies, who graced the occasion with their
presence. Mr. and Mrs. Stetson were
the leading characters, and well uiithey
act their respective parts. Mr. Stetson
labored under a severe cold, which neces
sarily marred many of the finest passa
ges in he part of Ingomar. Mrs. Stet
son’s conception of the character of Par
thenia is very fine. Iler enunciation is
clear and distinct—she acted the charac
ter eharmiugly.
Tho entertainment of the evening was
marred by the darkness in which the
stage was repeatedly enveloped by the
gas going out, which rendered it neces
sary to keep a boy, candle in hand, to
light up again. Where does the fault lie ?
We hope it will be duly remedied. An
other annoyance is the great, thirst (?)
which seems to afflict so many gentlemen
at intervals. At every drop of the cur
tain there was a genera! filing out of the
Hall, and a return after the rising. We
hope such will restrain themselves here
after until at least, the conclusion of the
play.
Avery fine audience was present on
Wednesday evening to greet Mjs. W. M.
Ward ou this, her second visit to our city.
The play for the evening was Lucretia
Borgia.
Expectation was on tip-toe to hear and
see the representation of this celebrated
character by Mrs. Ward. Her fame as a
fine actress had preceded her, and none
were disappointed-r-if anything, they
were more highly pleased iu hearing her
than reading the emcomiums of the press
upon her acting. The play was intensely
interesting throughout—made so by the
very earnest manner in which Mrs. Ward
rendered the character. If she would
speak broken English and attach an Eu
ropean title to her name, she could take
these whole United States by storm; but
alas ! she is but a real sensible American
woman. We believe tbere is, however, a
sufficient aDpreoiation of native talent in
the South to sustain her in her growing
reputation.
The other parts in the play were very
satisfactorily filled.
What Mrs. Ward was to the first piece,
Mr. Sheldon as “Cousin Joe,” was to the
afterpiece. If any one could sit and look
Joe iu his most comical.phiz five minutes
without collapsing, he would indeed be a
stoic or the meanest of misanthropes.—
We have seen other comedians in Cousin
Joe, but Sheldon is a head and shoulders
above them all. At tlie close lie was
called before the curtain to receive the
expressions of gratitude from the audi
ence for his efforts to amuse them. Joe’s
“phelinks” overcame him, and he could
only manipulate that he was “going to
have bright buttons ail down both sides
of Lis coat,” which was only a signal for
another yell of delight. Sheldon’s a
trump, and will win anywhere and under
any circumstauces.
Jane Shore, a most intensely interest
ing tragedy, was presented on Thursday
evening to a very good house. Mrs. Ward
and Stetson almost surpassed themselves.
Mrs. Stetson, particularly in the closing
scene of the third act, represented the
outcast and unfortunate woman most
beautifully and affectiugly.
The other members of the troupe did
their parts admirably. Mr. Ferris, as
the Duke of Gloster, ranted too much for
our taste. Mr. Stetson, as Lord Hast
ings, was most excellent.
The farce was aa uproarious affair,
and, as usual, Sheldon was the attrac
tion.
To our taste the dancing of Miss Wil
liams was exceedingly immodest, and an
suited for a respectable audience, com
posed partly of ladies.
We were often pained at the ill man
ners of a portion of the audience, who
did not possess brains sufficient to appre
ciate the first piece, disturbing those who
did by a continued conversation. If such
.men or boys cannot enjoy a tragedy, let
them in decency’s name, stay out until
the farce comes on, which they can ap
preciate.
This evening will be presented for the
first time in our city, that beautiful play
“ Guy Mannering.”
On Friday evening that beautiful play,
Still Waters Ilun Deep, was presented to
a highly delighted audience, and on Sat- j
urday evening we had Guy Mannering,
or the Gipsey’s Prophecy. On both oc- |
casions Mrs. Ward showed herself to be i
an excellent talent. As Mrs.
Sternhold, she portrayed most happily
the character of a strong minded woman, j
but as Meg Mcrrilles, she far surpassed
our expectations. A bright future awaits
her, or we are much mistaken. Combiued
with a commanding mien on the stage, she
has a voice whose power gives force to her
recitations, and rivets the attention of the
intelligent auditors.
Mr. aud Mrs. Stetson are winning gold
en opinions from our people who love the
drama.
Mr. Henderson, as John Mildmay, fail- j
ed not to make a hit at every remark.
Miss Mollie Williams gave us several
beautiful songs; and though laboring
under a severe hoarseness, she convinced
her audience that she could enchant them
with sweet song. We trust to hear from
her ofteu during the week. Her medley
song in the farce was decidedly the best
thing that we have heard on that stage
for years, in the comic line.
To-night the Star Company inau
gurate the second week of their perform
ances in this city, with Shakspeare’s
historical tragedy of Richard 111, in
which Mrs. Ward will appear as the
Queen. The performances will be en
livened by a character dance by Miss
Lillie Graham, and a comic song by Mr.
Sheldon, alias “Cousiu Joe ”
In conclusion, the favorite little come
dy of the Rough Diamond will be given.
We expect to lose several vest buttons
during this side-splitting performance,
if Miss Mollie Williams aud Mr. Sheldon
sustain themselves as well in the Rough
Diamond as on Wednesday night, it will
be very satisfactory.

Shakespearian Bull.
The following occurs in the second
part of Henry VI, Scene 10th. It is the
exclamation of “ Alexander Iden, Esq ,
of Keut,” when he discovers that it is
“ Cade” he has killed :
“ Sword, I will hallow thco for this thy deed
And bail- thee o’er my tomb. when 1 am dead”

Portable Steam Engines.
Me stepped into the machine shop of
the Muscogee Iron Works for a few mo
ments, on Friday afternoon, and were
shown by the gentlemanly agent, Mr. D
11. Torbct, a beautiful little portable
steam engine, which he ha? just completed
for a gentleman in Shelby county, Ala.
It is the snuggest affair we have seen for
some time, and is thoroughly furnished
with all the latest improvements of the
day. He also informed us that the one
now in operation in the shop had been
sold, and was soon to be delivered, and
that there was one in process of construc
tion for a gentleman in Conecuh county,
Alabama.
These engines arc beginning to attract
the attention of planters—and well they
should, when our planters can, with an
outlay of $1,200 in an engine, do as
much ginning as with SI,BOO to $2,000
in mules, aud avoid the expense of buy
ing every year or two. Nor is it alone
used in ginning. It is so arranged that a
pulley can be attached to drive a saw or
grist mill, at the planter’s very door.
Much is sa:d and done in getting port
ableengines from the North. Here in our
midst, at our very doors, we have them
gotten up and fairly tested before packed.
Mr. Torbet states that he can, aud will,
as soon as orders justify, turn out an en
gine complete every week.
Among other things, we Lad an op
portunity to satisfy ourselves that our
foundries are as able and competent to
turn off a fine article of castings as any.
A piece of casting intended for a window
cap attracted our attention for its fine
ness, and we were glad to learn that it
was produced from Columbus sand.
We commend the Muscogee Iron Works
to the patronage of the public, and more
particularly do we desire the planters to
supply them-.elves with one of those neat,
handsome, compact, and money-saving
portable engines.

THE WITHERED DAISIES.
by tiis u tiior of “over the river.”
Became she loved them/’
You ask me why I love them so,
Those little simple flowers,
That over every pasture blow,
In April's sunny showers;
And why a daisy wreath I twine,
Instead of dewy roses,
To hang about the holy shrine
Where our lost child reposes.
’Twas in the spring-time that she came,
And all the forest mazes.
Wore bright with flowers without a name—
The fields wore whito with daisies.
You know how beautiful she grew,
How lair and sweet and holy,
But the violet, wet with morning dew
Is not more pure and lowly.
She flitted like a sunbeam bright
Around our cottage door;
Her footsteps, as a fairy's light,
Made music on the floor
On every flower of wood or glade,
She lavished childish praises;
She loved all things the Lord has made,
But most she loved tho daisies.
How many thoughts beyond her. years,
That then were all unheeded,
We think of now, with blinding tears —
Sweet teachings that we needed.
Three happy years we led her feet
Along life’s weary mazes;
The fourth, we laid her down to sleep
Beneath the April daisies.
’Tis well, and we are reconciled,
For lie who gave the blossom,
Who lent to us our angel child,
Recalled her to His hosom.
And waiting till he calls for me,
To sing with her his praises,
I’ll keep her blessed memory
-Embalmed in April daisies.
“As thy Day thy Strength shall be.”
A weary journey lies before thee still,
Thou pilgrim to a fair and promised land;
Through the dark valley, up the rugged hill.
And o’erthe trackless waste of burning sand,
Thine aching feet must tread; while mighty foes
Will ever strive thv progress to oppose;
Yet, fear not, God himself will watch o'er thee,
And “as thy day thy strength shall surely he.”
Friends may forsake thee,or like sum'erflow’rs,
Fade one by one before thy mournful view;
The simple joys that gladdened toilsome hours,
May pass as swiftly as the early dew;
Disease and pain thou may’st be caller to bear,
Or penury’s distressing weight of care:
j But love is mingled with adversity,
And “as thy day thy strength shall surely be.”
Thy pilgrim garb and manners may excite
The scorn and anger of the worldly throng;
Unkindness and injustice soon may blight [on,
Hope’s fairest blossoms; thou may’st wander
| Alone and sad, to weep thy bitter loss,
i And heavily may press thy daily cross;
! Still, ’midst the storm, the bow of promise see,
| For “as thy day thy strength shall surely be.”
| And in thy latest moments, when with Death
And Satan thou must combat, and not yield;
When with dim eye, and quickly-heaving breath,
Thou enterest on that solemn battle-field,
Thv Savior, who has succored thee through life,
Will nerve thy spirit for the closing strife,
Will lead thee on to glorious victory;
For “as thy day thy strength shall surely be.”

There continues au active demand for Wheat
from both the trade and millers, and any quantity
of prime would find ready sale at full prices. We
quote prime White at 95c. to sl, and fair 85 to 90c.
per bushtl, and prime Red at 90 to 95c., and fair
80 to 85e. A strict prime article of White would
probably command a better price than our out
side quotations, as th s quality is very much in
demand by our millers.
There continues a brisk demand for Corn.
Buyers are offering C 5 to 76c. per bushel. From
store, sacked, it is held at 89 to 90c., the outside
figure mainly ruling.
The stock of Bacon is light, and with only mod

home consumption and export, pricos have been

Hams 11 to 11 %c . Clear Sides 10 to and
Ribbed, 9% to’lOc., from wagons. From store,
packed. %o. advanco on those prices is demanded.

heavy increase in the number of hogs in all the
