copious rains of the
Chattahoochee rirei
order, to the delight
U-
hrrv. living on the river. Up to within
the last week, the river ha* been *o low
all the fall that the one or two boat, ply-
in* it were wholly inadequate to more
the cotton to market, and hence the light
reoeipt* by river at this point and at Co
lumbus. Little or no cotton now goe* to
Apalachicola, and nearly all the planter,
living near the river from this point to
it* mouth, .hip their cotton hen
Columbus, where they purchase
supplies. Therefore the present
the river is an item of no small
tanco to planter* and t
this section.
The weather since the rains has been
Uw and unseasonably warm, but itUJ
jflad to say. our community generally is
» tl» wwoent of excellent health.
There have been, however, three deaths
since Saturday last in this city. Mr,
M. Mwon. wife of Capt. Macon, of the
?!“«*• ‘Rod y- Htcrday morning
?,° aomo ■«" “he took
* ft8r childbirth, three weeks ■
which was the immediats aauso of her
ae ~ i \ "hu was a most accomplished
and charming lady, greatly endeared to
a large circle of family relatives and
friends. She leaves an almost heart
broken husband, a little daughter about
111 y*»r* old, \ij infant of three
weeks, and this entire community
to mourn her untimely demise. In this
•ore and most sad affliction, Capt. Maoon
haa the sinoore sympathy of ail his friends
and acquaintances. I am also deoplv
nained in informing you of the death of
Mrs. Sarah Clayton, of Opelika, mother
of Gen. If. D. Clayton, of this oounty, and
of Mr*. Dr. Pope, of this city. She died
on Saturday night last in this city, at the
resideaoe of her son-in-law. Dr. J. C.
Pope, in about the 75th year of her ago.
She was a most estimable My in all the
relations of life, and beloved with a
motherly affection by ail who know her
well. Her remains were taken to Ope
lika for interment.
Mr. Loti Williford, of this city,
young tnan of eighteen or twenty year*,
also died on Saturday night last, of
white swelling in tho leg. HiH surgeon
removed a portion of the tone in tho af
fected leg, but soon after tho operation
w»» performed mortification followed
an.l death quickly claimed its victim.
Ho was a promising and excellent young
man, just entering upon manhood and a
career of usefulness, and bis death is
greatly lamented.
You have heard, probably, of the death
of lion. K* C. Ellington, which occurred
at his residence in this city on Wednesday
last. Ho was a native of your State, anil
for many year* past had been a merchant
at Georgetown, but sinco the war has
been in the cotton business at Eufauln.
He liad filled several imjHirtant ami re-
Nljonsil.le positions in life, and always
with credit to himself and to those who
honored him with their support. Ho was
one of the purest and best men in all this
region of country, and hi* death is griev-
»u*ly deplored. Ho was a member of the
City Council of Eufauln at tho time of hie
death.
The Circuit Court of Barbour county
convent* to-day at Clayton, Judge J.
McCaleh Wiley prodding. The most
important cate to this community to be
t«ied In tho cane of the State iiguin.it Mr.
Wm. Courtney, a policeman, now on duty
in Eufaula, for killing a negro burglar
la»t summer whom he wan endeavo ng
to arrest at night. The negro wan in the
act of carrying off Homo atolen plunder
when Courtney called to him to stop,
The negro dropnod the plunder but con-
tinned to run, when Courtney fired one
•hot from hie revolver, merely to frighten
him to a halt, but it made the thief run
fan tor. The officer then fired directly at
him and killed him. Upon theee facte
Judge Kiel#, of the City Court,
the preliminary hearing of the ci
adjudg h1 Courtney guilty of murder in
the first degree, and refuaod him bail.
The priHonei, however, got a hearing be
fore Judge Wiley, then holding tho Cir
cuit Court for Henry county, who at the
request of counsel for tho prisoner, bailed
him in tho ana $2,f»oo, to answer a charge
of manslaughter at this term of tho Cir
cuit Court for Barbour oounty. The cast,
i»* of dome importance, in that it will settle
the point a* to when an officer should shoot
to effect an arrest. Tho law, however, it
pretty dear on Uiia point, and no doubt
JJ entertained of the honorable acquittal of
Courtney. Ho in a steady. quiet and us

How Nice It Is To Bo a Horse and Go
to California.
Baltimore Sun. October 2a.
True Blue, tlie winner of the four-mile
heut race Saturday, left Baltimore for
Sa« Franciiico lut night in a special
•took palaoe car by the Northern Central
J&ailrood. True Blue's rider, Barbee,
with Chamberlin's agent and his colored
man Jim, aocompantevl tho horse in his
sumptuous car, Thu outside of the car
was pointed a bright red. Upon either
sidon brilliantly displayed placard was
pouted, reading as follows: M Please do
not detain me.—Business of importance
with my friends, Thad. Stephens and
Joe Daniels, requires me. Yours, truly,
True Blue.'* Upon expressing a desire
to inspect the interior of the car and to
interview the champion, permission
was cheerfully accorded by Mr.
Chamberlin. *rho rear end of the
car, which had bean set apart
for tho valuable steed, was tilled all
around with thick mattresses, as was
also the roof. Glass windows were placed
in the side to secure proper ventilation.
Tho fore j«ort of tho cor was divided into
five *eparate comportments for two of
True Biue's stable companions who were
to accompany him. The middle of tho
car was arranged for the accommodation
of attendants and for the storage of tern-
porary supplies of provender. It is ex
pected that the horse will reach San
Francisco iu about eight days. This will
allow True Blue only about a week iu
which to recover from the effects of his
long trip by rail before contending
against Thad. Stephen* and Joe Daniel!
in the $30,000 race which will take place
November 15. The result of this enter
prise is watched with considerable inter
est by turfmen in all parts of the coun
try. Should True Blue win the raoe, he
wall undoubtedly never start again.
Some Favorable Signs,
A prominent and intelligent Boston
manufacturer said, yesterday, that after
all nobody had foiled yet who ought not
to. The Spcaguot, for instance, have
been running wild in business for years,
over-extending their credit in all direc
tions, and careful money-lenders have
been shy of their notes for a long while.
The innocent may suffer through them;
if this suspension of confidcnoo and credit
goes on. even the strong and the prudent
will fall—but so far it Is true that only
reckless speculators, either in stocks,
bonds or trade, have gone by the
board. Again, the heart of things
is sound and healthy—the consumers
are ready and have the means to take
the foot! and the goods they want at a fair
price. ^ Two of the groat retail dry-goods
store* in Boston sold more goods during
October tlxan in any ^October before.
Then there were two great wholesale
sales of print* at New York, this week,
of both tae Sprague* and the Manchester
print factories. They wore, it is true,
offered below cost, but at prioes at which
they can now be manufactured at a profit
—but there was a groat rush toget i.iem,
and all were greedily taker. Speculation
is at fault—it has come to grief—but
genuine trade is only suffering from the
distrust and increased cost of credit that
this ruin of reckless gambling has cre-
a ted.—Sj) ri ti j/ULi Republican.

Ti." f.1- .iM" r. -i-l-nt- in th.- n.-l-u.
borhood of Kensington Gardens hav# jost
been startled by a sensational piece of i
senn.IaI and a melancholy suicide. A ;
short time since a celabrated lead, r of the I
demi-monde, who lived in magnificence
at K- u ington, succeeded in winning the 1
affe- tions of a fast young gentleman of I
high social position, and, notwitlutand-1
mg the opposition of his relatives, he
married her. The next day they left for I
Pans- There, it appears, the bridegroom
plunged into the most reckless expendi
tures, and lost enormous sums at gaming.
In leas than four months he had squan
dered all his own and his wife’s money.
They returned together about a month
vinoe, and took up their abode in her
mansion.
About two weeks since be wss induced
by some means to leave her, and return
to his father's bouse. His friends in
sisted on hi* applying for divorce, on the
grounds that h<- had been duped into
marriage. Proceeding* were commenced,
and the summon* served on the unlucky
woman. Yesterday morning she wua
found dead on the floor of her bod-room,
haring stabbed herself in the heart. She
left a most pathetic letter, directed to her
husband, which was clinched in her left
hand, together with his portrait. She
aocused him of being the cause of her
death, and with treating her with the
bluest ingratitude. She had beggared
herself by supplying him with money,
and even the furniture and plate in her
h<mse, together with the house itself, was
-faopfileHsly mortgaged.
This “poor unfortunate” was consid
ered one of the most beautiful women in
Lon lnn. She wax tall, slender and ex
quisitely molded, with a magnificent head
and shoulder*, and lustrous dark eyes.
From documents found in her writing
desk, it was ascertained that more than
a year ago she had saved her husband
(then her lover) from utter ruin and dis
grace by giving him $30,000 to cancel
his defalcation of some funds in the
bank in which he was then employed.
She had also given him other large
amounts of money previous to marriage,
and had really married him to try to re
form him, and a* the same time reclaim
herself. The affair has caused a profound
sensation among the aristocratic folks of
the West End. as the young gentleman,
notwithstanding his known extravagance
and fastness, moves in the best society.
Kouglllng It.
A few evenings since a Detriot chap
was sparking a West-Side girl who wore
an Elizabethan ruff. Expecting his com
ing, she bad dressed for the occasion, and
her ruff, stiff as an unrestricted use of
satin-gloss could make it, was of the
mo -t Stunning character. The lover came
at the orthodox time, and was ushered
into the parlor, where the enchanting
maiden and her father and mother were
seated. Ho was cordially received, and
the evening passed pleasantly, although
the old folks sat up a good deal longer
than the youngsters thought necessary.
Finally they went to bed and the twain
were left alone. After a certain amount
of preliminary bashfulness, the maiden
assented to her lover’s request for a kiss.
He essayed to take it, but was met
at every point by a bristling wall of tar
latan and starch. He came up to her in
front, and was gouged in each eyo. He
sidled up to her and tho right-hand prong
cut one of his ears half off. Ho attempted
to reach the prixe over her shoulder, and
a chevaux dc frise tickled his nose till ho
was obliged to take a seat and sneeze.
Then the maiden came to the rescue, and
held down one side of the provoking gruff,
and again the lover ndvanced. Just os
he ha<l all but reached her blooming
cheek, the damsel lost her grip, and the
razor-like decoration flew up with a force
that took an “under bit out of his right
oar." Then he got mad. Then she got
mad. Then they both got mail, and an
anticipated wedding has come to a pre
mature end.
