Baiubritlge, Cutbbert and Columbus
Railroad.
The people of Columbus are just begin*
ing to realize the fact "that the Legislature
of 1869 granted a charter for the construc
tion of a railroad from the Florida line
through Bainbridge and Cuthbert to Co*
lambus. Since it has become manifest to
them that it is the intention of the Direc
tory to build this road, at least to Lumpkin,
spite of their apathy if uot opposition,
ssem to have woke from their Rip
I Van Winkle sleep, and are anxious .for the
/ road which they have heretofore paid no
'attention to. Wbi’e the people of the
counties of of Decatur, Miller, Calhoun and
Randolph, were laboring hard for this road,
and doing as much towards its construc
tion as it was possible for them to do,
Columbus, although solicited and frequent
ly urged to lend a helping hand io the
enterprise, stood aloof and discouraged,
rather than encouraged it, simply because
it was not a Columbus enterprise, and the
work dis not begin from that point. The
Columbus & Albany road was strongly
advocated by them ; so was the North &
South, and all other roads, when the prob
abilities were that Columbus would reap
all the benefits.
The Columbus Sun, of the 23d inst., says,
‘the road to Cuthbert is certain ; if Oojura*
bus has to build it there herself.’ Now
isn't that huge ? ’Rah for Columbus 1 But
we ask, how the d—l it is she.has been so
indifferent to this enterprise for the last
two years, and is now suddenly so enthu
siastic in its favor ? We ask the Columbus
papers to post us, and after they have done
so let os know how ‘certain’ they are—
what amount of money they are ready to
put in. $250,000 subscription will put Col*
urnbtts all right—are you ready to plank
ft down T If not, tbs probabilities are, that
the road will come to a dead halt at
Lumpkin, and then the people of Chatta
hoochee, Marion and Stewart counties will,
with but few exceptions, be of the same
opinion a8 the man who hauled a load of
watermelons from Cusseta to Columbus and
got cents a piece for them. The fol
lowing is said individuals opinion of the
place.
‘Yes; this is a nice price to get for my
‘millons’ after haulin' of 'em 35 or 40 miles.
I was offered a quarter (or ‘era in Cusseta,
but like a fool 1 thought I could do
up here. The people of Chattahoochee is
talkin' of gittin' up a big barbecue to build
a railroad to Columbus. I can't see what in
the h—ll want to come here for. If
I can get forgiven* for cornin' this time I'll
bet I never cum agin.‘
Columbus will find that all of -the rich
trade she has beeu*getting fiom Chattahoo
cheo aud adjoiuing counties, will find its
way toLumpkin, Cuthbert and Bainbridge,
should Bhe fail to subscribe a sufficient
amount ta extend the road.
We sincerely trust that what they say
is not all ‘gass/ but that they will come
forward with a liberal.subscription.
The people of Bainbridge aud of Decatur
County, are anxious for a connection by
rail with Columbus, and have demonstrated
it, by their liberal subscriptions j in fact
they have kept the project alive, having
paid every dollar towards the construction
of the road up to the present time, with
the exception of a few thousand dollars,
collected from counties above.
* Let Coluto bus do as wcll'as Bainbridge
hka, according to population and wealth,
and the road is virtually built.
Grooby, and the Editor Argus are

Imbed for a long time the prospectus of a

County Plebfan j said Journal to be pub

prominent citizen of this county ; it has
long since faded into oblivion.
The Argus publishes every year from a
one to ttfro column prospector telling its
readers of the wonderful improvements it
intends to make j but when the time comes
for this tremendous enlargement and im
provement editorialy there is always an
excuse, somebody or somebody else did not
comply with their promises*

R. M. Johnston ; Mr. Johnston has proven
himself to be one of the flashiest young

missed by the patrons of the Argus, who
desire ttr know the ‘things about town.'
We hope soon to see Mr. Johnston, con

Awful Tradegy.
A Husband Witnesses the Death of his
Wife and Thbee Little Children Poi -
soned by Her Own Hand.
The most awful and appalling tragedy
that has stirred the hearts of any comma*
nity iu this section for many a year, if ever
before, occurred in Effingham county,-
about two miles above Station No. 3| on
the Central Railroad, about 3 o‘clack yes**
terday morning.
Mrs. Ash, the wife of John H. for
merly of this city, killed her three little
children and afterwards committed suicide
by administering a sufficient quantity of
strychnine to produce almost instantaneous
death.-
ft appears from what we could learn
from a gentleman who was an eye wit
ness to the horrifying scene,Thai Mrs. Ash,
formerly Miss Laura Dasher,, of Effingham
county, has for ar short time past been
slightly deranged, at .least she was
pectedof beiugm this condition fr om cer<*
tain singular appearances and conduct
noticeable lo tbose nearest her and in most*
continuous association with her. How*
ever, nothiug serious' was apprehended,
except that her husband felt a little ani*
k>as about her, and communicated with
her brothers on the subject. This was all.
No more serious apprehension was felt,
although her husband continued to keep a
strict watch over her conduct. A short
time previous he had purchased a small
bottle of strychnine for the purpose of des
stroying the Tats and dogs that were raps
idly, killing of iheic poultry, ses
creted in the nighttime, taking the pre
caution to lodk it up in an old bureau
drawer, hiding the key in a place least
likely to be discovered by his wife, no oth
er persou in the house knowing of the bi
ding-place. •
Sunday night all went to bed as usual,
though before retiring Mrs. Ash sat down
and wrote a long letter, to whom we could
not ascertain, her husband read the letter
but did not 'suspect anything, although it
contained an account of her feelings to
ward certain members of her family, with
whom there was some unpleasantness.
Mr. Ash took all three of the children in
bed with hiaiself aud his wife. Mr.
George Patterson, a friend and relative of
Mrs Ash’s occupied an adjoiuing room.
About 8 o'clock yesterday morning, he
and Mr. Ash vras aroused by the cries of
two of the children, an entering the room
found Mrs. Ash in the act of taking a spoon
from the mouth of the oldest child a little
girl, who had struggled ttnd resisted until
her cries woke her father and his friend,
both Os whom feeling alarmed, asked her
what she was doing. She replied, ‘only
giving the children a little powder, and I
am afraid I have not given them
They begged and entreated her to tell them
what she had given them —Mr. Ash fast
iug the powder which he discovered on the
mouth of one of the children, discovered
that it was quite bitter. She finally took
him to the bureau drawer and showed him
the bcttle of strychnine from which she
had dosed herself first and then each one of
her three little ones, It was but a shot t time
after this before the toother t a young wo
man about twenty-five years old, and her
three interesting little children, two girls
aud one boy, were lying stiff and cold in
the arms of death.' Dying in rapid succes
sion, one after the otbei,the mother, al
though the first to t*ake*the poison, lived to*
see her children all die and then followed
them herself. It is said the struggles of
the poor little creatures were awful, the
oldest falling backwards was* drawn to.«
gelher in such a manner that her head and
feet nearly touched each other. The af
flicted father held his little ones aod his
wife in bis arms till they breathed their
last.
The time Was too short from she discov
ery of the deed to procure any aid, al
though a physician was immediately sent
for. He arrived in time (o sate the father,
who, in his efforts to' discover what the
drug was, had swallowed enough to ren
der his condition dangerous’. Mr. Patter
son came to this city yesterday afternoon
to procure coffius to bury the dead, and as
soon as he returns an inquest will be held
previous*to the interment. >
