order to discover what this standard restora

the host of witnesses iu its fayor. Thus its

While the young and thoughtless are in ec

many a parent’s heart, even in our own

the most approved style of school furniture
The people ot our city are united upon this
enterprise, and are determined to have in
their midst a male school of high grade, that
shall not be excelled, except by the first-c ass

Coleman's Depot, Nov. 29, 1871.
Messrs. Editors : Mr. A. E. Coleman, of
this vicinity, (in honor of whom Coleman De
pot (Drived its name.) has killed the present
year, up to this writing, thirty-six chicken
hawks, eleven crows, and three owls. Last
year, 18707 he killed thirty hawks, and eigh
teen rattlesnakes, all of the “ big forced.”—
The year before, 18G9, he killed 3p hawks.
Who can beat that ?
Mr. Coleman’s principal method of killing
them is in tile spring when they are nesting.
Being an expert marksman, he never lets one
slip, even on the wing.
Now', Messrs. Editors, if neighbors would
adopt Mr. Colemaus plan, would nut chick
ens be more plentiful ? Suggest the idea in
the columns of your valuable paper, to your
many readers. Yours, etc.,

The Brunswick am! Al
bany Railroad.
The road is completed from
Brunswick to Albany 171 miles.—
From Albany to Cuthbert, 45 miles,
the grading and bridging are nearly'
done and three miles of track laid.
From Cuthbert to Eufaula, 20 miles,
there are 8 miles graded and bridg
ed to Spring Yale, and 12 miles
from Spring Yale untouched. This
makes the whole distance 236 miles,
of which 174 arc in running order.
The iron, the spikes, etc., to finish
the road from Albany to Cuthbert,
and a little beyond, lies at Bruns
wick. This renders the completion
of over 42 miles more a matter of
early accomplishment. This would
give 216 miles of completed road.
The road from Albany to Cuthbert
can be finished in 90 days lor trains
to ruu over. And by pushing the
matter the whole Hup to Eufaula
can be finished by the first of May,
1872.
The cost of the road from Albany
to Cuthbert lias been about $250,-
000, of which §125,000 is unpaid.
The cost of finishing this road be
tween these jroints will be about
875,000. A-d these amounts to the
$50,000 due for the road between
Albany and Brunswick, and yvc
have a total of $275,000 due and
to be paid to complete the road
to Cuthbert, 216 miles, of which
174 miles are done, and 50 miles
more arc nearly graded and ready
for iron, leaving 12 miles to be gra
ded and railed to Euhtula.
The road has been received by
tiio State Engineer, one Taylor,
from Brunswick to Albany, and
pronounced first class road.
Os the first mortgage bonds of
the road indorsed by tlje State at
$15,000 a mile, the whole sum due
to Eufaula would be $3,5 40,000 for
the 236 miles completed Os this
amount, $3,300,000 have been reg
istered in the office of the Secretary
of State, leaving $240,000 unregis
tered, and as far as known unissued.
This amount of §3,300,000 covers
220 miles of road, of which 174
are completed, leaving 46 miles of
uncompleted road, for which bonds
have been illegally issued. Os
these $3,300,000 of bonds, §2,610,-
000 are due for the 174 miles of
completed road, and §690,000 are
not due for 46 miles of uncomple
ted road.
Os the $690,000 of over issue
$150,000 arc accounted for as in
the possession of Henry Clews &
Cos. unused.
Os the second issue of bonds,
these being a State bond of SB,OOO
a mile, exchanged for the second
mortgage bonds ot the road at the
rate of 8 to 10. The whole sum
due for the whole road to Eufaula,
236 miles, is $t,880,000, and aU of
these have been issued and regis-
Jtored. Os this amount SBO,OOO are
in the Executive office unused, leav
ing §1,800,000 out.
For these bonds there are, in the
Treasurer’s office, §055,000 of the
second mortgage bonds of the road,
and in the Executive office $1,533,
000, making a total of §2,188,000.
The whole amount should be $2,350,-
000. This leaves $162,000, whose
whereabouts are not known, but
which are supposed to be in the
custody of Charles L. Frost.
Os the $1,800,000 of these sec
ond road bonds out, $1,392,000
have 174 miles of completed road
to back them, leaving §408,000
over issued, for 5l miles of half
done road.
Adding this over issue of the
second bonds of SfOS,OOO of the
over-issue of the first bonds, we
have $1,093,000 altogether of over
issued bonds.
Os these over-issued bonds §300,-
000 have been hypothecated to Gil
lead, Smith & Cos., of New York,
for the iron that lies at Brunswick
to finish the road to Cuthbert, —
And $150,000 are in Clews’ hands
unused. This leaves $648,000 of
over-issued bonds unaccounted for.
These are the facts as far as we
can get at them uow from various
sources.
We also learn these facts. 11. I.
Kimball was President of the road,
and H. I. Kimball & Cos. were con
tractors to build the road. Kim
ball has resigned both as President
and Director of the road, and
through bis agent, Mr. Cook, pro
posed to make an assignment to the
Brunswick and Albany Railroad
Company of all assets and margins,
provided the company would as
sume his indebtedness and build the
road. Mr. Frost has been elected
President, and probably Kimball’s
proposition accepted.
A large amount of the bonds are
hypothecated among the leading
capitalists of New York at about
67 per cent., leaving a margin of
33 per cent, at par, or 23 per cent,
at 90 cents. The minimum value
allowed for negotiation yf the bonds
by law.
The bondholders express their
willingness to take the bonds at 90
pents, on which margin, as Yvell as
other assets, the road can be coni'
pleted, and secure a regular issue
of bonds.— Atlanta Constitution.
Distinct Court Abolished.—
The House, on Wednesday, passed
the bill abolishing the District
Courts of Georgia, over C.ouley’s
veto by a, vote of 125 to 26. All
right. This is death to the tjoober
business in these parts.
A Singular Coincidence*
The Bth day of October is twice
memorable in the history of the
United States. On the Bth day of
October, 1864, the fair valley of the
Shenandoah was laid waste by Sher
idan and his hosts. Our bouses,
our barns, our mills, and eY'en our
sanctuaries dedicated to God, be
came a prey to this relentless fire
fiend. For fifty miles, burning
bouses and barns lit up our valley,
and upon every hand the cries of
our frightened women and children
fell upon the ears of the relentless
demons.
Seven years have rolled around.
The anniversary of that awful day
is marked by burning homes and
wide spread desolation. Chicago,
the beautiful city of the West, has
fallen a victim to the flames, Michi
gan, the home cf those who obeyed
the inhuman order of Sheridan, is
desolated by the fa r reaching
tongues of an Uresis tile fire. Thou
sands have perished in the flames.—
As if to make the coincidence per
fect, Sheridan figures in both. “The
mills of the gods grind exceedingly
fine.” —Exchange
Important Railroad Movement.
--It is reported on good authority
that a nurvement is nearly comple
ted to result in the establishment
of a direct lino of railway commu
nication from the Louisville and the
Ohio river to the South Atlantic
seaboard, with steam facilities to
Europe. The Louisville and Nash
ville and Decatur Company were
sometime since consolidated. The
South and North Road of Alabama,
has iikewise passed under the con
trol of the same parties giving them
a direct line already from Louisville
to Montgomery. They are now in
treaty for a lease of the Montgom
ery and Eufaula and the Brunswick
and Albany Railroads, which will
give them a direct and continuous
line of railway communication to
Savannah and Brunswick, by far
the shortest and easiest of from all
the interior towns to the seaboard.
The lessees have abundant means to
build whatever portion of the con
nection that is incomplete to make
their combination one of the most
powerful and remunerative railway
enterprises in the country. The
leading spirits in the enterprise are
men controlling vast capital, and
of wide experience in similar un
dertakings.
The combination will control, on
its completion, more than one thou
sand miles of railway, a power suf
ficient to wield important influence
in the material progress of the
South.— Atlanta Constitution.
GkoßGia Gold Bonds.— We bad
an interview yesterday with an in
telligent citizen of Georgia, just re
turned from Europe, who states
that the six per cent, gold bonds of
Georgia are being hawked about in
financial circles in London and Par
is, seeking purchasers. They have
no market price, but are shoved off
on the best terms practicable upon
the unwary, and are bought at low
figures by those who know what
they are about, but are willing to
take the risk for the chances of a
large profit. Our informant says
lie does not doubt that he could
have bought any quantity of them
at 30c. to 40c. in the dollar. But
believing them to be fraudulently,
or, at least, illegally issued, he de
clined to touch them at any price,
lie heard of no particulars, but as
he heard 11. I. Kimball was in Eu
rope, his suspicions were on the
alert, and ho kept clear of them.
He came over on the Scotia, and
learned from three passengers on
board that they had dipped in and
were considerable holders of these
bonds. They were, or affected to
be, quite startled at the suggestion
that they might bo repudiated by
the Legislature as illegally is
sued, and not bindirg upon the
State. They should ha\ r e remem
bered the caution that a conspicu
ousfy low price suggests : “ It’s too
cheap to be good.”— Augusta Con
stitutionalist, 2d.
B. & A. R. R. Injunction.— The
counsel for the Complainants in the
application on the part of the Goy--
eruor and others for an Injunction
restraining the lien creditors of the
B. & A. R. R. from selling the prop
erty levied on, asked, on Wednesday
last, to amend their bill by inserting
allegations that a number of the
claims upon which lien execution
had been issned were for work .done
for 11. I Kimball & Cos., and not
for the Brunswick and Albany Rail
road Company, and that the Road
had never been delivered into the
possession of the Company, and the
appointment of a Master in Chan
cery to investigate the claims and
report thereon to the Court, at some
future day 1o which the hearing
should be continued. Messrs. Hood,
Basinger, limes, and John L. Harris
were heard in favor of the appliea
tion and Messrs. B. F. Harris, Bed
ford and Smith contra. His Honor
Judge Sessions granted the applica
tion, and appointed Col. John D.
Ruinph, Master in Chancery, and
the second Monday iu January next
for the hearing.— Steeport Appeal.
Tiie First Pardon.— The acting
Executive, Mr. Conley, has made
his first pardon and it is a proper
one. Peter Blair risked his life to
save the Augusta jail from fire. He
was in jail for six months, several
having expired. Upon application
of many persons, Mr. Conley par
doned him.
We understand that our “ acting”
“ad interim ” Governor declares
his intention to hold on to the office
in which he is a usurper, thus declar
ing an open rebellion against the
Constitution and laws, and assuming
the at'itude of a “ rebel.” He was
opposed to “rebels” during the
war, and has since that time pro
fessed to be one of the extremes^of
the extremely and “troolyloilbut
now his loyalty is gone and he is
a rebel, and lias placed himself on a
rebel platform, and favors a rebell
ion against, law and order. This is

Usury.
There was decided, Wednesday,
in the United States Court, at Sa
vannah, a case which involves very
important results to our commission
merchants. The suit was in favor
of a New York firm against Iyvo
farmers of Sumter county, Geor
gia. The former had advanced
about $15,000, in iB6O, for the lat
ter, and purchased for them 100
bales of cotton. The contract was
that the defendants were to pay
three-quarters of one per cent, com
mission and six per cent, interest
on the advance, as long as the cot
ton was held. It was to be sold
only upon the order of the parties
owning it. Under this contract the
cotton was held eight mouths.—
Like all other contracts of a simi
lar nature in the year 1866, when
cotton was held over, there was a
heavy loss, amounting to o\’er sl,-
600. The defendants gave their
note for the amount, but afterward
refused to pay it, and upon suit
brought plead usury.
The Judge charged the jury that,
if this contract tor commissions
was made to evade the usury stat
utes of Georgia, then the policy of
the law forbatje its execution; but
if the agreement was made to pay
the legal interest and a commission
to the factor, for each month, for
his care, 'diligence, labor and atten
tion expended in the business of de
fendants, it was proper they should
find for the plaintiff. The jury
Yvere out but.a few moments when
they returned a verdict for the plain
tiff for the full amount of puncipal
and interest.
The parties were —R. T. Wilson
vs. Jas. T. West and Phillip West.
R. It. Hines for plaintiff and Har
den & Levy for defendant.
Shall ave Have War with
Spain?— There is some bluster in
Washington about going to war
with Spain, and it is reported that
a fleet has been ordered to Cuban
waters. What adds to the interest
of the news is the fact that Spain
has already a fire fleet it) those w -
ters, and stands ready to reinforce
immediately. The Washington cor
respondent of the New York Herald
states, on the highest authority,
( * that the United States cannot cope
with Spain, even were it possible to
concentrate its whole naval power
for such a purpose.’’

JURUBEBA.
It is not a Physic—it is not what is popu
larly called a Bitters, nor is it intended as
such. It is a South American plant, that has
been need for many years by the medical fac
ulty of those counties with wonderful efficacy
as a Powerful Alterative and Unequalled Pu
rifier of the Blood and is a Sure and Perfect
Remedy for all Diseases of the Liver and
Spleen. Eular ement or Obstruction of lutes
tines, Urinary, Uterine, or Abdominal Organs,
Poverty or a want of Blood, Intermittent or
Remittent Fevers, Inflamation pf the Liver,
Dropsy, Sluggish Circulation of the Blood,
Abscesses, Tumors, Jaundice. Sctofula, Dys
pepsia, Ague and Fever, or their Concomi
tants.
Dr, Wells’ Extract of J yrubeba
is offered to the public as a great invigorafor
and remedy for ail impurities of the blood, or
for organic weakness with their atteniiapi
evils. For the foregoing complaints
JURUBEBA
is confidently recommended to every family
a$ a household remedy, and should he freely
taken in all derangements of the system, it
gives health, vigor and tone _t.o all tire vital
forces, and animates and fortifies all weak and
lymphatic temperaments.
