Columbus Times: Yesterday at the •otupanj’s office in this city, the animal SBteiitig of the stockholders of the Musco gee Manufacturing Company was held. The election of officers resulted in the re- election of the old board of directors, which is composed of Mr. George I’. Swift, president; J. Rhodes Biown, II. H. Epping, A. Illges, George F. Swift, Jr., directurs. Mr. W. A. Swift w as re-elected secretary and treasurer. The wisdom of this action ou the part of the stockholders is exemplified ip the report of the presi dent, whieli shows that the earnings of the company for the past year reached the handsome sum of $30,760.05-- i©» per cent, on $157,500, tbe capital stock of tbe company. A dividend of 7 per cent, was declared and the balance of the earnings •trried to the reserve fund, out of which additions, which are now under way, will be made to the mills. During the past year a handsome fire story wing has been built, which makes room for forty-two more looms, which will increase tbe ca pacity of the uuli to 200 looms, as 158 arc a»w operated. The improvements will te pushed to rapid completion.

He purchased tbe lot of Jand on which he died, in August, 1827, for $100, and the latter part of that year witli his wife, who still survives him, ho entered upon the land, then an unbroken forest, with an Indian pony and a small bunch ofcattie. Tl is place he settled for a home and has remained on it for fifty- four years—has raised eleven children to be grown—nine of them stilt living, and in their spheres in life are doing well and much respected. Though frequent in- duccmeuts were offered for him to sell out, he refused them all saying, “this was bis Texas,” and by hia indomitable indus try and economy, he enlarged his place' by purchase and improvements nutil now it is one of the most desirable small farms In the county, and leaves bis property free from debt. Cbawfordyille Democrat: Day la bor is very scarce and demanding high price. It sometimes seems that the sorrows of a family come ali together. In Craw- fordville there is a most unfortunate fam ily. Two months ago Mrs. E. Pingston was happy in tbe love aud health of two daughters and one son. Tbo son was suddenly taken ill and Afcd. In two weeks her eldest daughtelAtiss Wright Pingston, died. And now tSfinal great blow has come. Last Saturdajfcust two weeks from tbe time ot tbe death of her sister, tbe remaining daughter. Miss Mot ile Pingston died. The strangeness seems almost a fatality. There was just two weeks’ difference between tbe deaths, and each of them died on Saturday before noon. Oglethorpe Echo: One day last week a little child of Mr. Thomas Gunter, who lives on Mr. R. B. Mathews’ place, was missed, and search boing instituted it was soon found in a tub of water with life, to all appearances, extinct. After hard work however, it was brought to, and has en tirely recovered. It is not known how long, but the little thing must have been in the tub some time before being discov ered. Tbe people of Lexington have for a long time been troubled by tbe depredating of a hawk upon their chickens, being very bold, and it seemed as though he would die only of old age, as it was next to im possible to get a sliqfeat him, but on Mon day morning his hawksliip came to his death, being wounded by Mr. It. C. Lati mer and lighting in Mrs. Willingham’s yard, be was killed by Jourdau with an axe. This same hawk pursued a pigeon into the bouse of Mr. R. G. Johnson and under the bed, but failing to catch the pigeon he flew out and made his escape before Mrs. J. could do anything to stop him. Eastman limes: Rev. S. 8.

Cautersville Free Press: Explo sion or nc explosion, our car factory is bound to run. An engine has been bought aud placed in position and yesterday she was started. The works now wear an air of business and enterprise, thanks to Capt. Lucas, the clever superintendent. Sandeusville Herald: Col. R. L. Gentry, of the Teleobaph and Messen ger is in the city in the interest of that excellent daily. He informs us that ne gotiations are in progress locking to the enlargement of the paper and still further I improvement. The address delivered by | Dr. J. P. Stevens, of Macon, on Tuesday last, in response to an invitation extended him by the Washington Agricultural Society, was every way worthy of the reputation of this distinguished gentle man. The topic discussed was “The present condition of the farmer, its cause and remedy.” While many errors were portrayed in the general line of policy pursued by the farming community, yet the hydra that overshadowed all other evils, was declared to be the ali cotton idea, tiie failure to diversify the products of the soil. The address was chaste aud ornate in style, clear and cogent in its reasoning, and was listened to with pro found attention. On mot’on of Col. C. R. Pringle the thanks of the audience were tendered to the speaker for his able address. Nome Courier: It has now been a week since Bud Harris disappeared from Wea ver’s wagon yard in South Rome, and no tidings of his whereabouts have been re ceived. We learn that he has a wife liv ing down near the line of Polk, and, strange to say, alia has not yet been to Rome to look after her husband. His He reports small grain as looking well in his section. Augusta Chronicle and Constitution- affet; Tbe trial of the case of Wm. H. Johnson vs. the Geotgia railroad for $10,- 000, suit for damages, was conclnded at Morgan Superior Court on Wednesday last. The case grew out of an incident which occurred iu the passenger train ot :1m ail-w company one day'last- July. Among the passengers on that train was Wm. H. Johnson, a drummer, of Pitts- j burg. Pennsylvania. While sitting in the ' ladies’ car ho pulled oiT his coat, and was requested by Mr. Harry Hill, conductor,to put it on again. Tfiis he refused to do, when tbe train was slopped near Madison and Johnson put oil. The case has since excited considerable inter est in railway circles. Tho trial of tbo case resulted In a mis trial. It is generally understood, how ever, that the jury stood nine for no dam ages. ana three for $100 damages. It is not thought that the road would have stood a cent damages, as they were con testing the spirit and principle of the suit. It is not now believed that the suit will fee pushed further. "Sir. Fred | C. Foster, of Madison, and the Messrs. Lewis, of Greensboro, repre settled Johnson, while Messrs. Joseph B. Gumming, of Augusta, and Joel A. Bil lups, of Macon, appeared for the road. Middle Georgia Argus: If Dr. Felton stood six feet three inches in bis political boots before Governor Smith shot him with a heavy charge of paper bullets, we should thiuk ho would now measure about two and a half inches short meas ure. LaGraxoe Reporter: About a year ago Lige Lindsay, a colored man in La- Grange, was cleaning out a well when the bucket broke from its fastenings and fell upon him, striking his left shoulder and paralyzing the arm. Alter this accident tbe limb shrivelled up and became use less On Monday last Dr. H. T. Heard decided that amputation was necessary, and proceeded to perform the operation, which was entirely successful. He was assisted by Drs. J. A. Bauch, E. Calla way and 8. S. Pitman. Albany 2Veic«; Hello! Hello! Well? Albany has at last got her consent to ex amine into the telephone business, and it is stated that Mr. C. W.

Whether they do or not he will connect the warehouse across tho river and the Sims-Rust ware house in town with a central office on Broad street, for Capt. Ed. Wright. This will be an opportunity for our enterpris ing citizens to chip in with an institu tion that every town of pretension pos sesses. parents also live in the same neighbor hood, and they have likewise failed to put In any anxious inquiries, either of their son or his wagon and team, which is still lessic r^tty.

I'r.nur Ho,nc Journal says about Fort Valley: The prohibition law having re duced the town tax about six hundred dollars, some very good management will have to be done during the next year in order to make both ends meet. The ac tual expenses are now much mode than tJie receipts, and the town mast either go hi debtor seek to have tbe charter amend ed so as to enable the council to meet the expenses. , , .

TO dfcy ^ fW ia the possession ot Weaver. The editor of the Oglethorpe Echo has a level head. He says: Editors don’t pro fess to be first-class farmers, and, in fact, may be fools in that respect, and doubt less are called foola every time they at tempt to advise farmers, but it seems to its that the condition of most of our farm ers proves that they know as Idle about it as the editor. A change of some kind must be made; we all see that. Thomasvii.le Enterprise: The action of council ou the whisky license has I c osed out three barrooms and stopped tbreo or four parties from selling by tbe quart. The revenue to tiie town will be about the same as it was before, and we suppose that those who remain in the wliWky business will make just about as much profit as they ever did. Columbus Enquirer Sun: Yesterday, Dr. R. A. Ware, who fives a few miles across the river in Alabama, brought quite a number of silk worms of the Japanese variety into tiie city. They appeared to be about half grown, and were at work. The doctor has a large number of silk worms from which he is raising silk. lie r °f feeding them the multlcanlis, which is the species of mulberry most used ia this country for feeding silk worms, but there arc other species said to be as good, while ail the varieties are good silk worm food. Those who contemplate entering upon the raising of silk should first plant the trees upon which the worms are to feed and have them well advanced. Tho worms multiply with great rapidity and require a great many lcavrs. Franklin Xttcs: The storm which passed over the country last week paid its compliments to Heard In the way ot de. moiishing fences, unroofing outhouses, throwing down timber and playiug the mischief generally. On Dr. J. W. Dan. .el a farm, known as the Kirk place, the smoke house was wrecked and cribs and stables unroofed. Uncle Dick Jones, who occupies the place, had his hand severely smashed by tho slamming of a door. Xwo^ 6patis of Watkins’ bridge, on Hillabehatchce, were carried away by the sudden rash of sweeping wa ters. The timbers lodged about a quar ter or a mile below, and will be replaced in a few days.

The boys were found here and about leaving for the t country to hire themselves out to somel farmer, as one of them satd, “to make al fortune in a 1 ttle while.” The curse of this age is the light sensational literature! that gets into the hands of our boys, and it ought to be suppressed. Athens Chronicle: On last Saturday night a young lady operative of tbe Geor gia Factor)’, attempted to commit suicide. It seems that the cause was a love affair. She fired three pistol shots, tho muzzle-of the weapon pointing in the direction of her forehead each time. Every bail'passed Funder tho skiu but glanced off and did not fracture the skull. The third one J somewhat stunned Her, and she doubtless thought her end was accomplished and ceased firing. Dr. J. M. Carlton was calieifto her assistance, and lie says the third shot came near being fatal. Athens Chronicle: The mill, under the efficient management of Messrs. Hale & Griffelb, made in January last 54,000 pounds of paper, notwithstanding the Fovesflow ot the lake, break-downs, etc.; 30,000 pounds more than was made in 1881, with the same interferences. Grandma Hale has been using a sifter fifty years, and it is now as good as new| She purchased it in Illinois, with hazel! nuts, which she herself gathered. She also has a candlestick, that she keeps as a relic, which is probably 200 years old. It was a present to her mother from her grandmother, when she first went to I housekeeping. If that candlestick had tbe gift of speech, what an interesting story it could relate! Washington Gazette: Gen. Toombs says if there was only one cotton seed on the face gf the earth, and it would kill him to swallow it, ha would do it, so great a bane does he consider the cxclul sive production of cotton. Atlanta Post-Appeal: Dr. A. F. F. Kerstan, city physician of the second ward and in charge of the city hospital, performed day beiore yesterday a surgical operation for empyema on Mr. John I’ar- I ham, of Griffin, aud drew off about one quart and a half of pus from tbe thoracic cavity. The patient is as well as can be expected, but there is not very much hope of his recovery. To-day'the doctor will perform another operation of tbe same| kind, because the patient has another very large abscess on his back. Mr. Par ham came to this city the first week in [January aud was admitted to the hospital on the 7tb of this month, and he is new an inmate. Barxesville Gazette: Last Sunday as Mr. C. Butler and family wore near thej Martin place, a few miles from Milner, a part of the harness gave way which let the buggy pole to the ground. Upon pull ing up the horses tbe Luggy was forced upon them, which caused them to take fright and run. After running a short distance, they collided with a turnout [driven by Rev. Jacob Buffington, and smashed both buggies. The occupants of both buggies were thrown out, and Mrs. Butler and Mr. Buffington received some slight Vruises. A little girl received an ugly wound across the forehead. By tiie kindness cf some young tnen of Milner, who came along about that time, the un fortunates received a ride to Milner, where another turnout was procured, and they went their way home. I Columbus Sun: A gentleman drew forty dollars from tne Merchants andl Mechanics bank yesterday. Instead of] putting it in his pocket as ho intended,! cropped it in front of the bank door. Wil lie Faulk, living at tb<i Eagle factory boarding house, picked it up and banded it to the bauk teller. The loser missed it and returned in a ehort while to look it up, and was pleased to find It had fallen into sucli honest bauds. The boy was rewarded. I Columbus Sun: A circumstance re cently occurred iu this city which should servo as a warning, to show those who are disposed to do so, that they cannot bargain for goods and scitle up by leaving the country. Last year a farmer from a neighboring county mortgaged his crop with one or our leading merchants for the purpose of running his farm. When seU I tling time canto lie sold everything he pos sessed and left for the Indian Territoryj Learning where he was, the merchant sent] a man vested with legal authority to ar rest him, and had him brought back in chains. His father came to tho cit/, can celed tho debt, paid the expense incur-] red in going after him, and tbus got the unfortunate man out of jail. This is the tliird instance of the kind that has occur red this winter, and it should serve as a warning to those who try to run away from the payment of wliat they owe, that honesty is tbe best policy. I Athens Chronicle: un last Wednes-j day night, John Nolan and Lum Fisher, two prisoners who were confined in our jai!, succeeded in escaping from durance tile. It will be remembered that these were ihe two men who were cemmit- ted for stealing cotton from Mr. Hopt Weir and the Princeton factory. It seems that the sheriff was accustomed to allow Nolan and Fisher to walk around in the passage way in front of their ceil during the day, while Die door between was left open. On Tuesday the grated door be tween their Cfll anil tiie passage was left a« tiMial, ami while left to them When night came Mr. Weir came, ss usual, and locked up the cell; but so well was tho fracture in tho hasp concealed, that he suspected noth ing. After every one had retired, the prlscnera loosened tho brokeu hasp and were in tho ball. They thcit, witli the pieco of hasp, made an opening in the roof. They next tied tlioir blankets to gether, and climbing out on tlio roof, stretched their artificial rope, when they easily reached the ground. Some trees are just back of the wall which surrounds tho jail, and it Is questiouabto whether the prisoners climbed down tiie blankets and into tho jail yard, and then over the wall, or whether soma one fasten ed the blankets for them to tho trees and they climbed down into tho sheriff's gar den. In either case, it is more than prob able that they were assisted by patties outside or the jail. They will probably never be overtaken by the arm of justice, JIACOX, GEORGIA. Her DIatinsuIshM Send la Hose Hill Cemetery. Richard It. Clark in Sunny South. Itistimo these articles ou tbe noble dead in Bose Hill Cemetery were drawn to a eloso. Not because there aro not others who from their pnblio career or interest ing circnmBtance3 in their lives are worthy ot being thus commemorated, but to no tice all so deserving would extend them to a length that to the reader would be mo notonous and wearisome. There are, how ever, two old and honored citizens ot Ma con, having beantiful monuments in the cemetery, who present themselves to my mind. Nathan O. Monroe and James H R. Washington. In “the long ago,” they together with L C. Plant, were respectively and for many years Bt the head of tho only banking institution in Macon. The money pressure lasting from 1837 to 1848 had swept away the local banka and their places had to be supplied by ogen cies of Savannah and Augus ta. Tho two first named have been “gathered to tweir fathers” for many years, while tho latter (the youngest of the three) yet survives to enjoy in his old age the fruits of half a century of toil, and tho sane fair reputation which has stood the test of all changes, whethor icci dent to prosperity or adversity. To Macon “before the w.ir,” Nathan O. Muuro and James and John H. R. Washington wero linent, hut not only good, nsefnl and prominent, indispensable citizens. It cannot now bo conceived tbnt in those times any other men could have adequately sueplied their places. The former confined himself stric.ly to bis banking business and passod his leisure time in tho enjoyment of litera ry pursuits, while the latter took part in the public and political affairs of his fel low-citizens. He was frequently a member of tbo city coancil, and was honored with tho mayoralty. He represented Bibb county in the Legislature, and was one of its most intellectual and usefcl members. Ho was a decided and positive character who had no compromises to make in ex chango for principle. There also lises before mu in tha mist of the past that man, who, in his time, was the man ot all men in Macon—Thomas Harde man, senior. Apart from his influence in business life, he was famed for hi3 probity and purity of character, and as a pillar of the Methodist church in Georgia, os well as Macon. His reputation in tbe latter was shared by his youthful friend Robert A. Smith, noted as well for his modesty and gallantry as for his piety. As a colonel of a regim.nt he is to be numbered with tha other precious lives lost in battle. There are yet others who have had no pnblio career, whose fame has not gone abroad—who have simply as good and use ful citizens pursued tha “even tenor” of life’s way, that deserve honorablo mention. Of these some have slept tha eternal eleop for many years, whiio other* have the monnds yet fresh above them. The events of th6ir fives, in the apt language of Dr. Lipscomb, have not receded in the dis tance, so as to take oa “the softened haze of remoteness.” Among the latter aro Drs. Strohecker, Roosevelt and Boone, ail dis tinguished in Macon society ns worthy gen tlemen and eminent physicians of differ ent schools. Also there is Wm. F. Brown—called fa miliarly Billy Brown—cut off in his youth ful monhooi when ho was fast a quiring the reputation once enjoyed in the same avocation by his worthy father and tbo late Sterling Lanier. Shall I not mention that innate and ami. able gentleman, in whose bosom beat tho kindest of hearts, 2 T. Uoimor? It is the highest tribute I can offer to him, and the most beautiful wreath I can lay upon his grave, to say, “for him, my heart hath bled; ter him, my eyes have wept.” The question now presents itself to my mind, shall I close theso comments whiio they nre yet confinod to the so-called “lords of creation ?” In that lovely cemetery of so many graceful monuments, ia there no mother, wife, or danghtor worthy of appro priate notice? Men who figure in tho marts of trade, in tho councils of the na tion, on the fields of battle, live a heroio life necessarily public, and their names be come well known “to fortuno and to fame.” Women are destined to a laborious and monotonous round of duties, and to bo dis tinguished only in so duty. In tither sta tion, there are no chronicles, Tbe oppor tunities are small, infiritesimally so, for Joans of Arc, tiraco Darlings, or Florence Nightingales; yet, if we could know tho secret h story of each life, there aro more real heroes among them than among men. And heroes too whoso lives nre not blem ished or darkened by oven a single vice, white it is common to find a heroic man over whose head a cloud hovers. Tho tost of a true and refined civilization is the es timate in whieh women nre hold. It takes a long time to throw off all tlio relics of barbarism, bnt gradually we aro boing re lieved from all of thorn. As it is tho tono of tho times to edacate girls as well as boys, eo it is fast becoming the tono to open to the employment of women depart ments that havL hitherto been closed to them. Ia many employments and indus tries, experience has demonstrated that they aro more usefal, skillful and reliable than men. They are nover sick, or par tially incapacitated from a spreo of the generally leaving at their der.th an infant or from t.vo to five or six little children. This Is death in its most torrible form. No matter what cemetery one enters, or where it is, the inscriptions will give testi mony that of this class of tho fend there is an undue proportion. It is but recently our own community was shocked by the death ot a young married indy, dis tinguished for her beauty and goodnes-, who left, bereft cf a mother’s care, five little children—as is said “just like steps.” An eloquent divino once, after drawing a vmd picture of the e»il in tho world, ir- clnding the wickedilfess of man, reachod his climax by turning his ey6s to tieaven. cud with a dramatic offeet which thrilled his audienco said, “uh.

And sent forth his cervants to call them that were bidden to the wedding, but they would not come. And again he seat forth other servants, saying: Tell them who are bidden, be hold, we have killed the old hen and pre pared the wedding dinner, and opened a keg of nails—all things aro ready for tiie blow-out. But they made light of it and went their way*, one to his farm, another to ills drug store, another to his grist mill, and tbe remainder took tho servants and entreat ed them spitefully, and put a Uu ear on them, and frescoed them with Michael An;elo eggs. But when tbe railroad king heard of it lie bounced tbo whole outfit, and shut oil' their railroad passes, aud raised tiie freight tariff, and busted them up in tbeir business, aud smote them sore on tbe ga ble end of their’intellecta, aud made it red iiot for them. Then said lio unto his servants: The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden wero not worthy. Go ye therefore down to the tracks, and into the round-house, and to the wa ter tanks, and tho cabooses and gravel trains, and gather together as many as ye shall find, and tell them to come over to tho wedding feast and fill themselves np. And the servants went forth and round - ed up as many as they could find, both bad aud good, and bade to the feast. And when the king went into the ro- -jptlon room lie fouud there a mau who bad not ou a spike-tailed coal, and low- necked shoes aud clocked socks.

I know that I am here without a wedding gar ment ; but behold, I am hero a conductor ou thy line, and I have reformed and ceased to knock down, and behold, thy servant is poor, for he is trying to live ou his salary. And the king was very wroth, and told the usher to gather him iu, and take him by the slack of his raiment and cast him over tbo outer wall; and there was weep ing and waiiing and gnashing of teeth. And while the wedding gnesls made merry, and whooped it up, the man cast out did steal around to the back door and became solid with the cook, and fitted himself up with tbo wedding feast on tbe sly.
