North and South Railroad.
I On our first page, this week, will
L found the proceedings of the meet
| ni r of stockholders of the North and
tjouth road, and also the Superinten
llent’s report. We give both in full,
believing they will be as interesting
our readers as anything else we
:ould publish.
Lest any one should think, after
catling the report, that Hamilton has
iot dune her duty in this matter, we
vould state, that of the amount paid
iv Harris county, fS 12,000 of it eame
rom citizens of this town. So it will
le seen, when the population, butsi
less, etc., of the two places are put
n comparison, that Hamilton has
lone far better than La Grange, which
fitter city has only paid $25,000, or
i little over double the sum paid by
lamilton, while she is better able to
,ay SIOO,OOO than Hamilton is to pay
112,000.
The most of the Hamilton subscrip
ion has been paid by a few individu
ls. In addition to the railroad, our
leople have been taxed heavily for
übscriptions to rebuild the female
■ollege, which is not yet completed,
ill things considered, Ilamiltou has
lone remarkably well.
The main wants now seem to be
i concentration of work on one sec
ion at a time, until it is completed,
ind an increase of subscriptions along
he entire line.
Altogether, the report makes a
•cry good showing for a road which
tins only twenty miles through a
ountry not th ckly settled, and with
mt a town on the line, and we think
ts future prospects decidedly eneour
iring.
O O”
Personal, — We spent an hour in
ileasant chat, last Tuesday, with Maj,
;\. li. Calhoun, the new editor and
iroprietor of the Columbus Enquirer.
I'he Major is a forcible, logical spea
ker, as well as writer, and is delerm
ned to make his paper one of the
jest in the State. Judging from the
tart he has made, we have no doubt
jut what he will,
Weather and Crops. —Corn still
looks well, but is beginning to need
rain. Favored by the last week or
two of dry, sunny weather, the farm
ers have made good headway against
the grass, and cotton prospects are
move favorable. We had a slight
shower on Tuesday, Gardens are
heeding rain,
We were unable to he present,
lmt learn that the excursion on the
Mulberry last Friday, in aid of the
Broad street Methodist church in
Columbus, was u very pleasant occa.
tion. There were about 350 excur
sionists, and the trip netted some $75
to the church.
“Devil” Wanted. —We want a
good, steady, apt boy, who can read,
to make a “devil” of. This looks
hard, but we will promise to make a
good “devil” ot him—paradoxical as
that may seem. A printing office is
a good place to help educate a boy,
and that without cost.
EW" A subscriber writes us from
Ward’s Station, Ga.:
I am very much pleased with your
interesting paper, and 1 have sent
several copies to my friends in this
county, who formerly lived in Harris.
I think it likely you can get several
subscribers another year.
Cheap Wrapping Paper. —Old
newspapers for sale at this office at
fifty cents a hundred. The reading
in them alone is worth twice the
money.
CF* The 4th of July passed off
without notice in Hamilton. The
darkies here aud hereabouts celebra
ted it by a picnic near town.
* l ■
Remarkable Yield. —Master Bob
bie McCants raised this year, from
one grain of wheat, 134 heads, which
yielded 4,317 grains.
t-Bp” No matter how grassy the
crop, when the colored citizen hears
of a picnic in his vicinity, be is bound
to go.
Hot.—Last Thursday, Friday and
Saturday were the hottest days of
th i season—regular scorchers.
The total cost of the bridge
over the Mulberry on the North and
& South ltoad, was $15,000,
Paper Car-Wheels.
The numerous uses to which paper
and paper-pulp are applied in the va
rious departments of general indus
try, forms one of the most interesting
chapters in the history of recent me
chanical and chemical progress. We
have paper doors and window blinds,
paper billiard balls, boats, and wash
basins, paper clothes and curtains,
and, not the least important, as recent
experiments have demonstrated, pa
per car-wheels. From an exchange
we learn that a Connecticut railroad
is about to make a trial of those new
wheels, which have been known to
car-builders for some time, though
their general introduction has been
hindered by the expense. These
wheels are made by the following
process!
Sheets of common straw paper are
forced into a compact mass by a
pressure of three hundred and fifty
tons. The solid mass of paper thus
formed is placed itt a lathe and turned
perfectly round. After which, a hub
is forced into a hole in the center,
under a pressure of twenty-five tons.
1 his paper wheel, or disk, is now
forced under a pressure of two hun
dred and fifty tons, into a steel tire
with a one-halt inch bevel upon its
inner circumference. Two circular
iron plates are then bolted on to the
tire to keep the paper filling in place.
By this arrangement the steel tire
rests upon the paper only, and is
thus rendered more elastic, a quality
of great importance as regards both
the safety and comfort of travellers.
Messrs. Scribner & Co s, New
York, will begin early in the fail of
the present year the publication of
an illustrated monthly magazine for
girls and boys, to be edited by Mrs.
Mary Mapes Dodge, the well known
writer for children, author of “ Hans
Brinker,” and for the last four years
editor of the children’s department
of Hearth and Home. Mrs. Dodge
is now in Europe gleaning materials
and securing contributions for the
new venture.
Gov. Smith, on the 2nd iust., issued
a proclamation seizing the Macon and
Brunswick Railroad for failure to
pay its seini-annual interest on the
bonds of the road endorsed by the
State, said seizure being provided by
the legislative act granting the en
dorsement. Geo. 11. Hazlehurst is
appointed agent of the State to re
ceive and control the road and its
property.
Our Hamilton Visitor.—Yester
day we were called on by Mr. D. W.
1). Boiillv, editor and proprietor of
'hat able and well edited weekly, the
Hamilton Visitor, We shall always
be pleased to see our friend, and to
know he is building up a good busi
ness in the beautiful town of Hamil
ton.— Columbus JHuquiver, 9th.
j6®y"Supt. Chipley is in New York
negotiating for iron for the next
twenty miles.
Crops in Texas.— The Jefferson
(Texas) Democrat says that the dis
couraging crop prospects, which dur
ing the late constant rains was the
subject of so much remark all over
the country, have now assumed a
more encouraging aspect. In cotton
’R Texas an increase in acreage is pul
down at thirty-four per cent., and
high hopes are entertained that an
improved yield over last year will
be commensurate with the increase
of acreage. The Democrat says that
the grain in the adjacent counties
and farther West, so far as harvested,
has yielded a great deal more than
was expected, and it has been gar
nered under the most untoward cir
cumstances; and concludes that the
prospects are now altogether enliven
ing, and congratulations are offered
the farmers on so decided a change
for the better regardirg the future of
the present crops.
Concerning Beast Butler’s
chances for the Massachusetts. Go
vernorship, the New York Tribune
says: “He has the office-holders and
the Administration W'ilh him. Let
it get out that he has an improving
prospect of success, and he will gain
also the great army of office-seekers.
Unfortunately, no strong man has
yet appeared as the banner-bearer of
the anti-Butler party, and it looks
very much as if the Republicans of
Massachusetts were bound to accept
this evidence of their own demoral
ization.”
A Songless People. —A recent
traveler says: “What always im
presses me more than any thing else
in Egypt and Palestine has been the
entire absence of cheerful and exhila
rating music, especially from children.
You never hear them singing in their
huts. I never heard a song that
deserves the name in the streets
or houses of Jerusalem. One heavy
burden of voiceless sadness rests upon
that forsaken land. The daughters
of music have been brought low.
The mirth of the tabrets ceaseth, the
noise of them that rejoice eudelh,
the j-y of the harp ccaseth.”
Incidents at Gettysburg.
A recent article in the Richmond
(Va.) Enquirer has called forth a let
ter from a member of a Maine regi
ment, in which he relates the follow
ing respecting his own experience at
Gettysburg:
One poor fellow, about twenty
five years of age, was shot through
the body. His wants were few—
“ Only a drink of cool water} lam
cold—so cold I—-Won’t you cover me
up ?’* And then his mind wandered
—murmuring something about “Dear
mother.’’ “So glad His all over.”
Then a clear sense of his condition,
and would I write to his father and
tell him how he died, how he loved
them all at home. “Tell them all
about it, wou’t you? Father’s name
is Robert Jenkins. I belong to the
Seventh North Carolina troops—came
from Chatham county. My name is
Will—,” and tearfully I covered his
face.
A little further on my attention
was attracted toward a young mati
of Kemper’s brigade, I think. Kneel
ing down by his side I looked at his
strikingly handsome face some few
moments, wheu he unclosed his eyes
and looked steadily into mine with
such a questioning, hungry look; an
appeal so beseeching, so eloquent!
and I had not the power to answer—
could only ask where he was wounded.
“ Don’t talk to me, please,” he said,
A moment after he touched his breast,
and I saw there was but a chance for
him, Asking if he was afraid to die,
he replied: “No; lam glad I atu
through. Oh, I hope this will end
the war—will it?’’ I asked him if
he was a Christian, and I think he
told nte he was not a professor, but
“ tried to be good,” when a spasm of
pain again closed his eyes. I could
not bear to leave him, and putting
my face down to his, he suddenly
opened his eyes—l shall never forget
their unearthly beauty, and the sweet,
trusting expression which overspread
his whole face as he said to me, with
a motion as though he would throw
his arms around tny neck, “I am go
ing home; good by 1” I did weep—
I couldn’t help it. Ido not recollect
his name —he might not have told
me. I only remember that boys from
the Sixteenth Maine carried him to
the field hospital, because they
wanted to, although they, too, saw it
was over.
Wife, Mistress and Lady.— Who
marries for love takes a wife; who
marries for fortune takes a mistress;
who marries for position takes a lady.
You are loved by your wife, regarded
by your mistress, tolerated by your
lady. You have a wife for yourself,
a mistress for your house and friends,
a lady for the world and society.
Your wife will agree with you, your
mistress will rule you, your lady will
manage you. Your wife will take
care of your household, your mistress
of your house, your lady of appear
ances. If you are sick your wife will
nurse you, your mistress will visit
you, your lady will inquire after
your health. Y'ou take a walk with
your wife, a ride with your mistress,
and go to a party with your lady.
Your wife will share your grief,
your mistress your money, your lady
your debts. If you die, your wife
will weep, Vour mistress will lament,
and your lady wear mourning.
Which will you have ?
B3T At the banquet in honor of
Herschel V. Johnson, l>y the Macon
(Ga.) bar, the following were among
the toasts offered;
‘‘The Agriculture of the State-
Based upon liens; buried in mortga
ges ; controlled in its councils by
lawyers; perfumed with the aromatic
odors of distant isles of the sea; with
its corn-cribs and meat houses in
foreign States; its offense is rank ! it
smells to Heaven.’’

To Remove Sunijurn. —Put two
spoonfuls of fresh cream into half a
pint of milk ; squeeze in the juice of a
lemon, half a glass of brandy, a little
alum and loaf sugar; boil the whole;
skim well, and when cool apply to
the skin. It takes off sunburn and
freckles.
Scholarship for Sale. —We offer
for sale, on accommodating terms, a
life scholarship in Moore’s Atlanta
Business University. It is needless
to enumerate the advantages pos
sessed by a young man who has ac
quired a good business education;
and such can be obtained by a course
of instruction under Prof, Moore.
Here’s a Chance !—Any one send
ing or bringing us the names of six
subscribers and sl2, will receive as a
premium a copy of The Great Indus
tries of the United States—a new
