reporifthe burning of two thousand live

We learn from a private letter that this
gentleman, formerly of Girard, Ala., and
a sou of Hon. W. B. Harris of that town,
has boon elected tft the House of Repre

He was elected from one of the Jersey
City districts, we believe. He Is a Demo

Radical opponents a “Rebel carpet-bag

class who has been elected to any Legis

that higher honors await him.

The Hog Cholera.
Dr. Dolmors, the Missouri Commission
er appointed by the Boardof Agrtoulture to
make an investigation of the disease which
has been designated as the hog cholera, in
his report concludes with the following
remarks:
Finally, I wisii to say a few words jn re
gard to a bygenic mistake committed on
almost every farm in tho West. I refer to
the practice of feeding the swine almost
exclusively with corn, a practice which cer
tainly is not calculated to produce healthy
and vigorous animals, but which necessa
rily must result, as can be easily shown,
In weakening the organism, and in crea
atinga predisposition to disease. How
much or how little this practice has con
tributed In producing the now prevailing
epizootlo Influenza of swine, I am not pre
pared to deoide. 1 have, however, reasons
to suppose that this practice has not been
without influence.
To give medicine to a healthy animal Is,
under all circumstances, a bad practice,
fraught with Injury, and should not be
done unless It Is intended to destroy Inju
rious influences. To use medicine for the
purpose of strengthening the constitution
of an animal, is simply folly, as just the
opposite will be the result. But to the
point: lam confident the epizootic influ
enza of swine, or the disease Improperly
called hog cholera, will cease to make its
appearanoe, or, at any rate, will become a
very rare occurrence, and will lose its ep
izootic character, U, first, every large herd
of swine Is divided into several small
herds, or lots, each containing about three
or four animals; thou, If each lot is pro
vided with a comfortable pen or plaoe to
sleep In, which Is free from filth, dust and
raanuro, is well ventilated and provided
with a good roof; if, thirdly, every hog or
pig has access, several times a day, or as
often as temperature, weather and cir
cumstances require, to fresh and clean
water for drinking and bathing, either in
a largo trough or iu a brook, creek or
streamlet; if, fourthly, no filfth, manure
or dirt Is allowed to accumulate In any of
the styes, yards, hog lots or pasture in
which the hogs or pigs are kept; and If,
finally, hogs or pigs receive always a
suitable variety of sound and healthy
food, which is not soiled with dirt or ma'-
nure.

Warm Time In the Catiri*.
FBAUP ALLEGED -THE RESULT OF AN IN
VESTIGATION WILL REDOUND
TO OOLUMBUS.
Boino time since this paper stated that
It was rumored that a heavy suit was to
be brought against the Central Railroad
and Banking Cos., by stockholders of M. A
G. Railroad Cos., and that wo thought If
tho Central Railroad Cos., could get
back tho money advanced they would
bo very glad to transfor tho road.
Wo had a conversation to-day with Maj.
R. J. Moses who, (with Blandford A Gar
rard, and L. O. Levy, Esq.,) Is tho attor
ney for the stockholders.
Tho bills are now ready to be filed, and
presented to Judge Kiddo, (Judge Craw
ford being a stockholder In the M. A G.
Railroad, is disqualified because of his In
terest.)
We have I teen permitted to look over the
bills.
There are two bills, one is filed by estate
of Benjamin May, and the other by Ho
mer Blackmon, D. M. Beals and It. J. Mo
ses, In behalf of themselves and such
other stockholders .as may join in the
hill.
The bills are volumnlous, but the main
tacts alleged are:
That the Central Railroad endorsed
$250,000 bonds of the M. A G. Railroad Cos.
on condition that tho stockholders of the
M. AG. Railroad would transfer to the
Central Railroad and Banking Cos. one
half their stock, and that this was done on
the representation of the President of the
Central Railroad Cos., that the completion
of the bridge across the Chattahoochee
river, and a short road through the city
of Columbus, connecting the Mobile A Gi
rard Railroad with the Central Railroad,
would give it an Eastern connection with
tho Atlantic ports, and its connection with
the Eufaula and Montgomery Railroad
would give It a Western connection by
which it would become a great through
route from the far West to tho Atiantlo
and to the Interior of Georgia; that these
connections and an extension to Troy,
Alabama, then contemplated, would so
largely Increase its net income as to pay
an annual dividend of 8 per cent, on the
half of tho stock retained by the stockhol
ders ; pay the annual Interest on the float
ing and bonded debt which would not ex
ceed $700,000, and leave an annual surplus
as a sinking fund to discharge the Indebt
edness.
That largo indebtedness was Incurred
to effect these ends. That W. M. Wadley,
President of the Central Railroad, was
made President of the Mobile A Girard
Railroad, and that the city of Columbus,
owning 2,000 shares, 1,300 of which it had
transferred under this arrangement, had
a representation in the Board of Directors
to protect Its interests.
That the Central Railroad, instead of
protecting the interest of tho Mobile A
Girard liaiiroad, used its power obtained
by controlling this avenue for the trans
portation of Western freights advorsely
to the interest of tho Mobile A G. Railroad
and as a lever to enable It to control (in
connection with the Georgia Railroad) the
Road leading from Montgomery to Co
lumbus, and after controlling the Mont
gomery Road, transported the Western
freights over tho Montgomery Road to
the exclusion of the Mobile A G. Railroad,
thus saddling it witii an indebtedness and
depriving it of all the promised advan
tages that were to be derived from build
ing tho Chattahoochee bridge, and form
ing its Eastern and Western connection.
That the Central Railroad, after obtain
ing control of stock, diotated who the
Board of Directors should be, and lias
evor since displaced directors who were
not subsorviont to the dictation of the
Central Railroad, and placed in office
directors who have allowed W. M. Wadley
President of the Road, to manage it as
he pleased, and that ho has so managed
It as to ronder the stock utterly valueless,
the Central Railroad itself refusing to pay
6ovon cents In the dollar for Its stock.
That thoy have bought suit vs. the
Mobile A Girard Railroad in the name of
T. M. Cunningham, cash on note of $116,-
953, made for the purpose of bring sued.
That said suit Is brought by one of the|Co
iumbus directors as attorney, and that
no defenoo has been filed either by the
city of Columbus, owning 2,600 shares,
costing tho tax payers of Columbus $260,
000,lor by the directors of the M. AG. Rail
road, that no effort has been mado by the
City Council of Columbus or the|M. A G.
Railroad Cos., to defend the sdmo, and
that It was tho intention of tho Central
Railroadtand Banking Cos., (concurred in
by the President and directors of the M.
A G. Railroad,) to take a judgment by de
fault at this term of the Court; which
would enable said Company, whenever
they choose to do so, to sacrifice the
bridgo and connections, in which the city
is largely interested, that this wohld de
stroy the value of the Road located in
Alabama, as a connecting Road. That
the Central Railroad holds the first mort
gage bonds; and that by the deed of trust
it only requires a notice to the surviving
trustee to utterly sacrifice a road which
cost nearly two millions of dollars, and fin
which the city of Columbus is Interested
nearly $300,000, besides largo amounts of
Individual stock hold by its citizens.
Tho prayer of the bill is for an account
and settlement, an injunction to forbid
htsselllng the Alabama portion, an in
junction vs. the Central Railroad, from
proceeding with the common law suit
until an account and settlement can
be had; a rescission of the contract
for tho transfer of stock, and an
Injunction vs. tho Central Railroad,
its|Agents and officers from voting on the
stock so transferred.
We are advised by Maj. Mosos that the
authorities in our Supreme Court, In the
Supreme Court of tho United States, and
other State courts, all sustain his applica
tion ; and that upon a fair settlement of
accounts, the Central Railroad and Bank
ing Cos.", can be repaid every dollar justly
due them. In the meantime the road must
not be controlled by parties who are
operating it in such a manner as to de
stroy its value.

THE POLITICAL CAMPAIGN OF 1876, WHICH
include* National. State and county election*!,
and which will undoubtedly be the most active
and hotly contested of any since the memorable
canvass of 1860, is now fairly opened. Tbe Na
tional Democratic Party will this year make a
bold, vigorous, and doubtless successful strug
gle for the maintenance and supremacy of those
principles which are vital to the prosperity of
the Republic and essential to tbe well-being of
the people.
In addition to tho * Presidential election, the
Seople in Georgia and Florida will elect new
tate governments. In Florida tbe campaign
promises to be unusually rigorous, and there is
a probability that for the first time since the war
the people of that Radical-ridden State will elect
a Democratic State Government. In these cam
palgUH the people of the South are deeply inter
ested; and ever* Intelligent citizen, who has the
welfare of hie country and his section at heart,
should acquaint himself with every detail of the
great work of redemption and reform that ia now
going on.
To this end he should subscribe to and assist
in circulating the Nn van ruth burnt it* News,
an independent Democratic newspaper, of pro
nounced opinions and fearless in their expres
sion ; a paper that is recognized everywhere as
the best daily in the South. Its editorial de
partment is vigorous, thoughtful and consistent,
while its news and local departments are marvels
of industry and completeness. Its department
of Georgia and Florida aflairs is not confined to a
mere barren summary ot events transpirisLC in
those States, but is enlivened by comment at
once apt, timely, and racy.
The ample resources of the establishment will
be devoted to furnishing the readers of tbe
MORNING NEWS
with the latest intelligence *tom all parts of the
world, through the press dispatches, special tel
egrams, and by means of special correspondence;
and through these agencies the paper will be tbe
earliest chronicler of every noteworthy incident
of the political campaign of 1876.
