From the Evening Telegram of last night we copy the following iufonna tion regarding the new cables : Pais, Oi.ober 17.—Mr. J. W. Mackuy and Mr. James Gordon Ben¬ nett signed n contract ou September 28 with Messrs. Siemens Brother* for two Iransatluntic cables, which ere already in process of construe tion at the works of Messrs. Siemens Brothers, noar London. The first cable will bo open to the public about Juno 1, 1884, and the second ono a few weeks later. This cable enterprise will be on essentially American one. l'heso ea bles'will bo owned oulirely by A mer leans,and this will bo tho only Amer¬ ican “Company owning cables under the seas between England and Amer¬ ica. As America tioos not own any thing that 1 tins over, tho Atlantic, owing to onr Chinese legislation re gnrdiug ships, it is high time to'put something American under it which legislation cannot touch. The cables are being constructed by Siemens Btothers with the «Ht possible ... and with all tho cure latent improvcmuuts perluiniiur ^ to modem , electrical science. „„ The poll CJ of the company * J to be organized Will , be to , maintain . the , absolute , , , se crecy of messages iutrustod to it, to forward and deliver them with the utrnoBt rapidity, to chutge only u fair tariff, thus moeting the present demand for economy, and to regu¬ late it* wholo administration or. Bound, common sunse business prin¬ ciples. As these cables nro being construct¬ ed to m.,et an actual and urgent need, and not for speculative pur¬ poses, tho public may rest issimd that the management will not full into the hands of any ring, and that the stock will not bo tampered with by any process of watering for t'n* benefit of the promoters, nor be pooled with that of other cable com¬ panies. W* believe it is for the interest all —bankers, merchants, newspapers and the publish in general—that there should always exist a healthy _compo ition iu cables as in others things, and we aro convinced that there is business enough bo'.h for •ur enterprise aud for that of tho present cable ring .—New York Her - aid. 1 ■ The urtf.of living easily as to ■Kjney is to pitch your scale of liv¬ ing ono degree below your moans. Guard against tho notion that, be¬ cause pleasure can be purchased with money, therefore money cannot be spent without enjoyment. What a thing costs a man is no true measure of what it is worth to him; and yet liowoften is his appreciation govetnod by no other standard, as if tbero was pleasure in expenditure sc/ Feel a want before you provide against it. You are more assured that it is areal want, and it is worth while to feel it n little iu order tomfool the relief from it. To show how meat enu be raisod most profitably in this country, we take the case of a merchant in this city who, early lust year, bonght *fsow nnd.seven pigs, the lot costing him $5.00. During (he year these pigs did not eat a bushel of corn, but subsisting on ground peas, potatoes and what they could find in the pas¬ tures around. In the winter these pigs were billed,realizing to this mer obsnt the sum of $70.00, when pork at that time was 8 cents per pound. The eost of tbe pigs at the time of killing was estimated at 2 cents per pound. Better to raise your meat than to buy it.— Monroe, Advertiser. -- m -- An old Highland clergyman, who bad relieved several calls to parishes, asked his servant where he should go. I'ho servant said, ‘Go where there is the most sin, sir. The preacher con¬ cluded that was gool advice, and went where there was most money.

J. s.jones, Staple and Fancy Dry Goods, BROAD STREET Columbus, Georgia. SIMON PUTIK MERIT. From the Columbus Euqnirer. Wo havo repeatedly stated that among the most prominent, experi¬ enced an 1 thoroughly posted mer chants in the dry goods business in Columbus, Mr. J. 8. Jones stands conspicuous. The almost phenomi nal success with which be lias mot in pleasing the fancy of the public is largely attributable to the fact tba! he fully understands their needs,taste and notions, whether they lie whim sicafor otherwise, and as lie makes it a point to be able to su.t all bis customers,he keeps an immense stock in all the various lines of the dry goods trade. No In ly can look at bis dry goods without finding tire ar¬ ticle for which she is in search, if it be in dress goods. He has colored velveteens, plain and brocaded,which he sells at 75o and $1 per yard; Mask 60c, 75c, $1, $1.50. lie has all sha les in the richest plain and cut velvets from $.1 50 ta$(S per yard. And tbei. in silks his sfoek and assortment nr« such that it cannot be excelled in tin city. In this line he has elegant gro grain and rh idume si ks in black and colors; oltgant white rep silks, ele gant baoca led silks and any kind ol silk desired. His worsted dress goods commences at 10c and 15c and em¬ braces all the prices—say 25c, 35.:, 50c, G0e, 75c, $1, $1.23, $1 50 and $2 Among these goods may bo form 1 all the new fabrics such as billhr l cloths, cashmeres, bison cloths, ser gos, tricots, diagonals, drop (Valina 1 -; nits wlmitean c'oths.six quarters wide, are jnnt what the la lies’ tailor suits are made of which aro so popular in New York. Tbc truth is Ihc linn of dross good in this popolut establishment cannot bo excelled any where in this section Wo cannot beg n to enumerate the various articles lie lias in dress goods but we can recommend to the ladies his attractive styles and advise them to go and see for themselves. No la¬ dy should make her fall nyd wiutir put chases until she has seen these goods and obtained his prices. But Mr Jones dolis not confine ad his time and talents to the ladies, the gentlemen and boys are bv no menus overlooked. In his stock are a full line of cassimeres, jeans, and men's fino imported suitings. Among the latter aie the latest style in ding onuls, corkscrovv, etc. He also has tho famous eider-down sackings. He has a very largo line of flannils an I blankets from the groat auction sale and will bo sold out at most avautu goous prioes. In gout's furnishing goods ho keeps everything iu the way of siiirts, drawers, socks, ties, hand -1 kerchiefs and anything tlint a gentle¬ man may find useful or oramentnl Ono who looks into these goods will see that special attention has beui paid this department. WLiilo his stock in all the various lines is very attractive indeed, he will offer additionul^ndneennnts to the trade. He will offer to close a large lot of gouts’ co ored shirts at. the uni¬ form prices of 75 cents, which he has been selling at $1, $1 50, and $1.75. Tho ciiuso of this extraordinary cut in price is that this particular line cf goods will not he made any more and he cannot, therefore, keep them is: stock. This being the case, he has determined to close them out at a very great sacrifice. In this popular establishment all tho departments aro well snstainded. He has a beautiful line of chenille and silk fringes, braids, buttons, and an endless variety of novelties. He cor¬ dially invites all pnrtfcs to call and iuspect bis stock, as it is no trouble for him to show bis goods. He is one of the live merchants wbo takes much pleasure iu pleasing his customers and seeing that thev nre- properly waited w.iltea n upon, non His ms clerks citrus are are all an courteous, nffable and polite, as well - »<"»o«o 1.1. ore sale advertise another and to do w«- *xto - «*• “ r*- to» defy competion.
