MAltikK IlkltoiuM—Capt. W II West
colt, of llds city, whilst returning in a
Mini 11 boat from a ducking excursion down
tin river yesterday morning, was attracted
by cries for assistance at a short distance
from him. Turning In the direction of the
voices, he saw four colored men in a flat,
w hich laid sunk until they were waste
deep in water. The Captain's bout being
too small, lie w ent to Screven’s ferry for
assistance, and soon landed them safely at
that place The captain showed us his
lingers, six of which lmd been frost bitten
by exposure in his efforts to save them. He
once before saved the life of a colored hoy
on the Savannah river, and it is a curious
coincidence that his own life was saved in
the same way by a colored man.—Savan

The time of sale of the Winchester and
Alabama and McMinnville and Manches
ter roads lias been postponed from Decem
ber 31, 1874, to February I, 1873 —thirty-
one days. This results from the fact that
there was a "mistake in the terms of sale.”
On Hie day of purchase, the purchaser
will have to pay seventy-five thousand
dollars in bonds of the State of Tennessee,
with coupons on and uftcr January I,
171, attached, and will have to give bond
for a compliance with the terms of the
original contract "to the extent of the
purchaser’s bid ” —NtuJmlle Banner, 1 3th.
The number of grain and molasses dis
tilleries in operation on the first of No

a capacity of two hundred and twenty
eight thousand four hundred and seventy
gallons daily ; the whole number in oper
ation on the first instant was two hundred
and thirty-six, with a daily capacity of
two hundred and sixty-two thousand three
hundred and forty-three gallons—a daily
increase in November of thirty-three
thousand eight hundred and seventy-three
gallons. This increase is the natural re
sult of the autumn harvests.
Imtoutant to Cotton Mwuiiams. —
We. learn that the Postmaster General, w ho
has been consulted on the subject, has de
cided that the practice which lias existed
among cotton merchants of writing tlic
qualities on their cotton samples sent
through the mail, with the address, is a
violation of the law. It is admissible
however to denominate the grade on the
outside of the package by figures. The
decision will be published in the Decem
ber number of the Postoffice Gazette,
which it ill be used about the first proximo.
Mr. Greeley says in a letter to the
Rev. J. M. Austin : "1 believe the moral
character formed In this life will be that
in which wc shall awake in the fife to
come, and that many die so deeply stained
and tainted hy lives of transgression and
depravity, that a tedious and painful dis
cipline must precede and prepare l’or their
admission to the realms of eternal purity
and bliss "
The new Legislature of Texas consists
