An Injunction nuit of great Importance to the railroads of the conntry and com mcrcial men generally has been filed in the superior court of Chatham county. It is brought by Ridgeway Smith, of Augusta, to prevent the Central Rail Americus, Ga., April 21, 1801. $8.00 : road and Banking Company of Ueorgla 5°; from issuing $13,000,000 worth of bonds 100 ' to the Central Trust Company of New j York. | Mr. Smith is the owner of 100 shares of the capital stock of the Central, alleges that the board of directors has executed the bonds and mortgages with out authority and in contravention of PiiEBiiiKNT IIarkison is taking the, the provisions of their charter.

Wllllnk, in a sparring match at the theater on the night of March 20. John Jkems Ixuai.es has demun- atrated the wisdom of the Farmers’ Alli ance in setting down on him, in that he has dropped into poetry. When an otd political reprobate grows poetical It’s high time be waa relegated to a state uf “Innocuous desuetude." Dona it City has only three grades «f society, according to a recent arrival from the West. The first, or “aristocra cy," is composed of those who put out their washing. The “mlddlo class" does its own washing, and the “lowest class” la that which takes in washing. This is the most simplo and complete distinction yet known, only it leaves one large olass unaccounted for—those who think washing an uuneccessary luxury. —Boston Post. Swcx Mr. Ingalls line become an hon est farmer he li tolling some ugly truths about the party in which he was lately a bright and shining light. lie says that the Republican party’s solicitude about negro suffrage was purely for political purposes, and that its onslaughts on the South were merely for effect, to keep the Republicans from dividtug and to keep the West and Soutii from unltiug politically. The statement, except as coming from him, will hardly surprise any one. PitoFEsson Fatten, of Yale Collego, baa figured it out by careful mathemati cal calculation that in 181M1 will ooour the second coming of Christ. It has , always boon taught in the Sunday sohools heretofore, that tuture events were revealed only through prophecy of Inspired men, but now the professors of colleges figure them out by conic sec tions or differential calculus. Daniel and Isalh and Ezekiel will have to take back seats, and give Prophet Fatten tho floor for at least eight years. Theellmaxofahiurdliy I. reacii.nl In t ie attacks which the Ht.

It is one of the most hopeful signs Of the success of Judge Crisp's candi dacy that the New York Sun is strongly in his favor. Tills of itself might not slgnliy much, as Editor Dun generally rides hobbies that "buck" with other men; but in this case the Sun is only iu the line of mareh with every paper anil every man in tho country iwho ought to be expected to favor Judge Crisp except the St. Louis Republie and Tom Wat son. If tho latter two favored Inin his' chances would not be so good; as it is, The Times-Rkcoiiokii has the most ab solute confidence in ills election. other debts of tlie company now exist ing, to more than doublu the capital. Tills fact, Mr. Smith alleges, will low er the value of his property as a share holder, if it does not entirely destroy it, and possibly render him individually li able at least to a law suit for his pro rata share of tlie debts of tlie company. Tlie contemplated action of tbo railroad, he claims, will render its charter liable to forfeiture. The complainant alleges that lie has demanded of tlie board of directors that tlioy should not in any wny dispose of the bonds or creato any • debt, hut should cancel tlie sanio, as they are a cloud on tbo title of tho company, but tlioy have refused to comply with his demand. Judge Falligant, after hearing tho pe tition read, passed an order requiring tho Central Railroad and Banking Com pany and the Central Trust Company of Now York to show cause at 10 o'clock on April 25, why the injunction should not bo granted as prayeii for. The mortgage complained of was exe cuted April 1, 1800, by President Alex- andcr and Casliior Cunningham. It was given on that portion of the road from Savannah to Atlanta and from Cordon to Mllledprovlllo, Qen. Alexander is now in Now York looking after tho lease of the Central to the Georgia Pacific.—Savannah News. BLAINJC AS A CANDIDATE. The Times-RecoBDKH has always boasted of tho intelligence of all its readers; but it seems that some mental reservation will need to bo exercised hereafter in speaking of the attainments of some few of them. Recognizing the ability of Mr. Blaine, and the greater credit it would he to the country to have him for president, if by any mishap the Republicans won In 1802, The Tiukh-Recobdeh nominated him as the Republican candidate, “sub ject to the action of the Democratic party at the polls." This was misconstrued by tho aforesaid solons into the putting up of Mr. Ulalno for the Democratic nomination’suhject to lbs action of the Democratic convention. All candidates of either party aro sub ject to the action of the other party at tho polls; and In suggesting Mr, Blaine’s name, The Tiueh-Kecoiiiikh merely stated that If the Democracy failed to elect their own candidate in 181)2, the next best that could happen to the country would be that Mr. Blaino be the man, lather than Harrison, Alger, Sher man, or such narrow minded and par tisan politicians ns they are. Tiik Times-Recomieii wants any de cent Democrat in preference to any Re publican, but if we must have a Repub lican let it he Blaine.

Harrison baa evidently started upon bis journey with the intention of doing his full duty as an orator. At every atop of the presidential train there is a speech from the platform of the gor geous Vacuna At the present rate of delivery the rhetoric of the entire trip of nine thousand and fifty miles will amount to at lease thrice the volume of all the previous speeches, published let ters, and state papers of Benjamin Har rison since he entered public life. But what speeches thay are, thus far! It Is a pleasure to read them. Nothing short of tlie extreme of partisan unfair ness can find in tlie little Pullman ora tions anything to ridicule or despise. Candor compels tlin statement that at tlie tail end of the Vacuna, surrounded by tlie hundreds and thousands of ids fellow citizens, who throng to inspect the wonders of the presidential train, and to gaze upon the nation's chief mag istrate, Gen. Harrison is at liis very best. Whether prepared care fully in advance, or extemporaneously excogitated, his occasional remarks along tlie route have been nearly fault less. Modest in tone, Interesting in mat ter local in their application while gen eral in their character, lively without being sensational, moderate without be ing commonplace, full of ideas, consist ent without being monotonous, exoei- lently and often eloquently expressed, they deserve recognition by political friends and enemies alike as models of Pullman platform oratory. It is as if Gen. Harrison had embraced the present opportunity to exhibit hlm- selt and the capabilities of his intellect to the people of the United States in a now aspect. Other presidents before him have tried the samo experiment, in the same way. Few, if any, of the navi- gators of the great political circle have succeeded so well as Gen. Harrison.— Now York Sun. CHECK YOU It DAISY Talk about Koch, of Berlin, and his lymph, why, a greater than he is Koch, of Harlem, who gives you a check for your baby while you wnnder through Ids store in searcii of tlie latest spring novoltios. Harlem lias bounded conspieuousiy to tho front, has solved tho greatest puzzle of modern civilization—namely, What to do with the baby when you go shopping. No problem over wrenched tlie soul of woman as that one has. Squaring tho circle, perpetual motion and the other heartrending enigmas which havo come tramping through tho corridors of time are nothing in compar ison. Sparing garments must be had, even if the heavens fall, and the baby can't be left alone. This “must" and this can’t” have been in deadly feud for ages, and no giant intellect have ever arisen with the noble mission of hitoh- ing the two into a double team like a conple of thoroughbreds. But now Har lem forges ahead with the cry of “Eureka!” on her lips. You take your baby with you, deposit the sweet fac simile in an .ante-chamber, receive a check therefor, buy your ribbons and yonrglnghnms undisturbed by anxiety, and when your purchases are made give up your check, recelvo your baby and go out into the cold world with your lit tio one plus a now gown. There seems to be no limit to human possibilities, but wo doff our hat to Har lem and admit that it is the paradise for the newly married.—New York Herald. TELEPHONE 93. BEALL & OAKEY.
