About two to three weeks ago Mr.

doubt that the money was stolen. Ho had

missing money. On arriving at tho store
he made the necessary entries on his

tho money on tho counter. Ho was
called off afterwards, and whan he re

The Moat Brilliant Attendance of
tha Season nnd n Terr Enjeyable
Exhibition.
The postponement of the Mother Goose
entertainment from last Friday evening
to last night, proved to be a meet happy
one, as the attendance could not have
been impaired by any possibility by the
change of date. Last evening the largest
audience which has gathered in Ralston
Halt this season, composed too of the
most intelligent and refined of our com
munity, and packed it from pit to dome.
The entertainment passed off brilliantly,
and the verdict of all waa that it was the
moat lueCMtfol that has been given in
tho city in several years. Nolwithetand-
ing tho thick and heavy elands which
hnng in low drapery above the city, tho
people turned ont, and before half-past
seven every seat in tho lower portion of
tha Hall had been tiken and the crowd
was overflowing into the gallery. Many
of those present last evening were chil
dren, and a more gorgeous array of bean-
tiful, fresh and sparkling faces has never
been eoea in the Hall, ami the picture
presented touched here and there with
white heads and graver faces.
Tho evening’s programme was opened
with a tableau entitled “Merry making
in the Olden Time,” in which tho group
ing waa very fine, and the pictnro pre
sented roceivcd the applause of the audi
ence and seemed to have been sanctioned
by iu approval. Then a speech, spoken
by Mr. Duffns Cltney, followed by a pro*
logno by Mother Goose, Miss Tom Ford.
The recitation in character then begaD,
and from the rising of tho curtain until
the going down of tho same that sea of
faces did not avert its gaze, and every
part in tho entertainment was noted and
appreciated. “Mary Quite Contrary" waa
beautifully done by Miss LizrieManghsm,
one of tho brightest of all tho little ar
tists who appeared, many of them for
their first time beforo the obarmed dia
monds of the “gUt'.ering hortehoe.” The
maids of honor In the scone wero Misses
Clara Nailing, Bennie Coleman, Hattie
Freeman and Sallio Goodall. ‘‘Tommie
Graoe” by Richard Hatchings, and
“Dickey,” by Bob Lee were next reoited,
followed by “Onrly Looks,” by little
Misses Gortrude Roberts and Floyd Scho
field spoken in a very aeeet manner, and
wsb loudly applanded.
“Ding Dong Bell” brought back the old
familiar words of Mother aoose, as they
wero reoltod by Katie and Willie Martin.
“To Market. To Market,” by Willie Good,
“Little Miss Mnffet” by Ruby Jones,
“Little Bo Peep” by Ernie Barr, were all
jnat as nice as poeslblo and wero qalte
enthusiastically reoolvod. Tho well known
lines, commencing “When I was n bach
elor I lived by myself," were acted ont In
pantomlmo by Mr. R. D. Claney, Mias
Pat Woodson an tho mother, |ud Misses
Sallio Goodall, Lillie and Clara D'anlap,
Mattie Rogers and Fannio Maugham as
the daughters in very fino stylo. Mr.
Ciincy played his part with great skill,
ns did Mies Woodson also. “Old Kihg
Cole,” Joe Singleton, with his pages, Em
ory Winship and Koch Roger*, and his
fiddlers, Georgia Jones, Syduoy Wiley
nnd Johnson Clancy, witjijn white wigs
and appropriate f costumes, were ; very
good imbed. Wit* JlIAfi III |
Most enthusiastically applauded and
admired was tho appearaneo of
two littlo girls, Dolllo and lAvinin
Rogers. They looked like two flakes of
bine and sunset sky. and recited in lisping
accents, “Rain, rain, go away.” “Jack-
be-Nimble” was on hand and looped over
the candle-stick in the person of Sam
Palmer. “Peaso pndding hot” waa
brought vividly back from tho past by
Maud Campbell and Madgio L. Roberts,
and served to the audience. “The Old
Woman In the Shoo,” Mias Annie Harris,
with her countloss progeny, waa very
amusing.
Master Dob Hodges waa “Tom tho Pi-
por's Son," nnd Miss Mattie Nutting a
very euccossfn! egg demolisheras “Dame
Trot.” “Dame Hnbbard” and her dog
was admirably impersonated by Miss Cora
Nutting and Johnson Clancy. “Little
Pig,” by Gertrude Roberts, was very
sweetly dono.
“Little Polly FJindcr*,”Mamio Light foot
‘Tom, Tom, tho Piper’s Son,” of pork'
stealing renown, Sidney Wiley, “Jack
Horner,” Sam Dunlap oach received
their applsuso. “What little boys are
made or,” was nicoly told by Helen Roes.
“When I was a little hoy,” was recited
hyQeorglo Jones, and waB followed
by tho “Ten little Ingnns,‘

Florence Roberts was tho Indian girl
Ono of tho prettiest performances of the
evening was the recitation of “The Old
Woman with her Skirts Cut Short,” by
little Mary Patterson. “The Milk Maid
and the Youth,” by Annis Persons and
Willie Bose, was also very good.
The cpilcguo waa spoken by Mother
Gcoie, Miss Tom Ford, in a very appro’
priate manner, and was followed by a
grand march, and the wholo concluded
by the song “Auld Lang Syne,” tho cur
tain dropping on a beautiful tableau
flooded with crimson light.
The audience then dispersed, the little
folks to dream of the entertainment, and
never to forget tbe evening’s pleasures-
It was cortsinly a moot encoeesfol enter
tainment, and a large sum was netted for
the benefit of the parsonage land of
Malberry Street Church. To Mrs, J. B.
Cobb the praiee for the guooesa of the
evening is to be attributed, as ber unre
mitting efforts made it so enjoyable. It
will be repeated this afternoon.
Matinee of Mother Goose.
At the request of many who were una
ble to bring their little fclks ont last
evening, and who wish them to see the
entertainment, the Mother Goose Bkow
will be repeated as a matinee this after*
acoa at Ralston Hall, commencing
promptly at half-past two o'clock.
Admission will be bat twenty-five cents
to all parts of tho house. The children
who have parts are requested to be at the
Hall at a quarter to two o’clock. This
will give all the little people an opportu
nity of seeing the performance.

ACCIDENT ON THE MACBN AND
At OCITa RAILROAD.
Almost n Serlau* Mishap—A Coach
jumps the Kails so n High Trestle.
Yesterday afternoon an accident hap
pened to the train on the Macon and Au
gusta Railroad, just as it was entering
the city, whioh was a most thtilling
spectacle to lookers on, and came near
being a most serious accident. Bat for
tbe calmness and prompt action on tha
pait of the railroad officials, very sicken
ing and saddening results would have
taken place.
The road approaches tho city by means
of a short stretch or trestle work varying
In height from fifteen to thirty feet, and
which crosses a ravine mads by tbs
branch which rnna from the city into the
Macon reserve. Jait as the inoaming
day passenger train was about midway of
this trestle work, which is about two
hundred yards in lcDgtb. and after the
engine and first cars bad patted safely
over, the rails spread and the tracks of
tbe lost passenger ooooti were thrown
from the rail on the side farthest
from the city and the ear was dragged
along on tbe ends of the cross-ties
and the stiingers composing the trestle-
work. Tho height waa at this point
nearly twenty-five feet. The ties soon
yielded to the forod of the car, and were
dragged in ono mass and huddled togeth
er under the train. Captain Frank Bur
nett, who is cool and collected ever, was
crossing to tho first class coach from the
second car and saw the aocident, nnd im
mediately pulled the ball line. The en
gineer, Mr. John R. Lae, a veteran in the
service, saw the trouble about tho same
time, and the train, which was going at n
very alow rate of speed, waa atoppod in a
car-length.
Tho consternation of the passengers
was quite striking. The ladies screamed
and tho gentlemen evacuated the cara,
nor stood npon the order of their exit.
With difficulty was one passenger re
strained from j umping from tho cars to
the ground below, so excited were tho
inmates of the coach. The nnmber of
passengers waa large, about twenty being
aboard, among them Col. Thomas Harde
man, Mr. T. B. Blackshear, Frank Tye,
and seven or eight ladies.
The car is still on tho top of tho trestle
badly careened, bnt will be gotten off to
day, if possible. A gentleman who saw
tbo wholo occnrronce from the depot,
says tbe car seemed to be balanoed sev
eral times on the two lower wheels, and
bow it came not to lose its balance in tbe
wrong direction is very remarkablo. Tbo
pMMOOTOf mind and promptness of tho
officials of the road averted the oataatro-
phe. The track being obstrnoted, so
that trains cannot reaoh the ehed, tbo
train for Angnsta on this lino will leave
from the freight depot, and no detention
of trains will result from tho aocident.
Diplomacy.
Ono of the very b«st of the society
plays of the day, Sardon’s Diplomacy, will
bo presented at Ralston Hall on tho 12th
instant by a oompany which, unless it
falls below its reputation, Is superior ns a
whole to almost any which has appeared
on tho Maoon boards for many n day.
Tho story starts with tbe love, of a
yonng Englisbmap^in tho diplomatic ssr-
vioe for tho clangkter of a widow- whom
he meets in Monte Carlo.’ The action of
the play is founded upon the 1 diplomatic
relations between the English and Rus
sian governments. The plot is lull o?
effective “situations." The vfflatn (os in
deed sometimes happens) ia a woman. By
abstracting a precious State paper, (he
throws suspicion upon Julian Bauble re’s
young wife, and thereby censes her hus
band to “Hare np,” and dosert her, and
brings sorrow and confasion generally to
the Beudoros. Tho soeot of a delloate
perfume whioh lingers -in a portfolio fur
nishes a cine for tho dotodfloh of me real
criminal, and the curtain at last'falls upon
tho husband and wife reunited - and
happy.
There are several fine scenes for every
ono of tho characters. The oompany in
cludes several old favorites, and the cast
has been made np with a conscientious
regard to the requirements of the play
and the ability of the players. Barry
more is the central figure, and the snr-
roundings are in koeping with bis graoefnl
and polished style.

Brevities.
The bills for tho “Diplomacy’
were printed yesterday.
The absence at the sentinel who waits
at the door for the forthcoming of the
gentleman who wishes to eeo him, was
noted by quito a number at Ralston Hall
lost evening. Too ever faithful sentinel
seems to some extent to have been off
doty.
A dead cow reposes at the corner of
Walnut and New streets.
About 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon
two colored females bad a street fight
on Mulberry street near the Floyd House
and were arrested by the police. Their
names are Catharine Nixon and Celia
Van. Tho green-eyed monster is said to
have been the casus belli.
For too freely indnlging in salalorial
amusement yesterday on the sidewalk in
the lower business portion of tho city, tbe
officers arrested Gussie Green, colored,
and locked her np in the barracks.
John Crofford, colored, who was beforo

From the Columbus Enquirer we quoto
the following particulars in regard to the
death of Master Jesse W. O’Brien, sop of
that genial gentleman, Mr. Matt O'Brien.
Mr. O'Brien has very many friends in the
city to whom tha nows of the death of
his very promising boy will bring feel
ings of sadness. We anite with the ar
tiste below in tendering cur sympathies
to the family of the deceased:
The information of the death of this
bright lad has caused a feeling of sadness
in many a heart. He was the eldest son
of Mr. Matt O'Brien, agent of the South
ern Express Company in this city, one of
the most estimable and public spirited
gentlemen our city ba3 had the pleasure
of claiming. As has been stated, not
quite a fortnight eiace. while with a
younger brother h anting. Jesse was shot
in the right arm, between the elbow and
shoulder, whan pulling his gun over a
fence. The eorgeooe did all they ceuld,
but to no avail. On Tuesday tue arm
as amputated, and at 7:20 yesterday
morning the patient btaathed his last.
Kind friends showered lavish attention,
women nursed and knelt and prayed by
the bedside, bat death claimed his own,
end ite spirit was transferred to happier
realm*. He was a cheerful, gifted youth
of seventeen years of age, with a faoe all
sunshine, of much promise, and a favor
ite with ootarades a* well aa those of el
der yeera. A teaching ooene is told us,
which, though it may seem to be unveil
ing private grief, we most minimi It
had for tome lime been the ambition of
nal, the lather put bis aims around tbe
dying sou, saying : “My boy, you wanted
to be *a messenger—you'll toon be one
now." Shot tty after the spirit fled to
Him who gave It.
To the grief stricken family wo tender
warmest sympathy. Tbe boy is not dead.
He tat only gone a little way. Look up
wards in beantifal hours and yon will aee
him smile^

A' HEMED1' THAT HA It BEEN
KEHEDIED.
The invincible repugnance felt by almost
eTery ono to the smoll and flavor ol Cod Liver
OiUiss prevented tens of thousands cf the victims
of itebility.from reaping the benefits of its peculiar
healing and nutritive properlim. Tho almost
hoiiefess consumptive, the martyr to Rheuma
tism, tho haroly living shadow of men, women
and children that emerge from tho clutches of
malarial fevers, all t.f ihe»e know, or at least their
doctors know, that of all discovered remedies,
this Oil is tho best, and often tho only ono that
will build up their wasted bodies, and restore
their shattered nerves, and far more elfective
than the oil by itself is Scott's Emulsion ef it,
with tbe Hypopbosphites of Lime and Soda.
This is the finest and most natural food and

COMPOUND OXYGEN.
Referring to his own complete restoration te

after many years ot invalidism and exhaustion
from over-work, T 8 Arthur, the well-known
American author, says, in his Home Magazine,
under date of February, 1S78: “Drs Starkey
and Palen are physicians in regular standing,
of high personal character, and above the posi
tion of quackery or pretense. A new curative
agent has come into their possession, and their
administration of it, so lar, lias resulted in re
storing to health many who had regarded their
ailments as incurable, and m giving back u good
measure of health to a large nnmber ot invalids
who had vainly soaght for help through othor

THE NEW YORK SUN FOR 1879
Tub Suit will he printed every day during tho
year to come. Its purpose and method will lw
the same os iu the past: To present all tbo news
in a readable shape, and to tell tbo truth though
the heavens fall.
T&b Sue haa been, ia. and will continue to bo
independent of everybody and everything save
the Truth and itsown convictions of duly. That
is tho only policy which an honest newspaper
need have. That is tho policy which lias won
for this newspaper tho confidence and friend
ship of a wider constituency Ilian was ever en
joyed by any American journal.
TintS UK is tlio newspaper of the people. It is
not for the rich man against the poor man, or
for the poor man against tbe rich man, but is
seeks to do equal iuatire to all ritcrcsts in the
community, ft is not tile organ of any petson,
class, sect or party. There need be no mystery
uhout its loves and hates, t is for houcstxuan
against tho rogues of every time. It is for tha
honest Democrat aa again,t the dishonest Re
publican, and for the honest Republican as
against the dishonest Democrat, i t does not take
its cue from the utterances of any politician or.
political organization. It gives its support unre
servedly when men or measures are in a roemeut
with tbo Constitution and with the principles
upon which this republic was toundod for tlio
people. Whcnovcr the Constitution and consti
tutional principles are violated—aa in the out
rageous conspiracy of 1878, by which a man not
elected was placed in the Prcsidcnt'a office,
where he still remains—it speaks ont for tho
right. That is the Su.’aidea of independence.
In this respect there will be no change in itsf.ru-
gramme for 1879. .
Tub Sue has fairly earned the hearty hatred
of rascals, frauds and humbugs of all sorts and
sizes. It hopes to deiervo that hatred not leu iu
the year 1879 than in 1878, 1877. or an; year gone
by. The Sun is printed for tho men and women
of to-day, whoae concern is chiefly with the
affairs of to-day. It liasboth tliedisnositionand
tho ability to afford its readers tbe promptest,
.ulleat, and most accurate intelligence of what*
eveifin the wide world is worth attention. To
this end tho rear urges belonging to well-estab-
ished prosperity will be liberally employea.
The present disjointed condition of parties iu
this country, and tho uncertainty of thefuture.
lend an extraordinary significance to the event,
of the coming year. To present with accuracy
and clearness the exact situation in each of its
varying phases, and to expound, according to its
well-known methods, tho principles tint should
guide us through the labyrinth, will be an impor
tant part of the Sun's workforlS79.
IVu have the means of making the Sue. as a po
litical, a literary, and a general newspifier, more
entertaining and more useful than ever before:
