Th 8 New Cable Company.
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 -

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.

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
