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 sentatives of the Now Jersey Legislature. He was elected from one of the Jersey City districts, we believe. He Is a Demo crat, and he was derisively called by his Radical opponents a “Rebel carpet-bag ger.” Hols probably the first of that class who has been elected to any Legis lative position In the North. We hope that higher honors await him. War Hap, Mr. E.

Jim Dense the fol lowing particulars of a burglary at, Boi Springs, on the Houthweotern Railroad, twenty-three mile* from Columbus. Mr. Jno. Chapman was In the back room of his store on Monday night, when some one entered the front of the house and ab stracted the money drawer, which con tained •150 IN SPECIE. Tho same thieves also stole from the etoio Mr. Jackson's railroad ear key, thinking It was the key to the express stfe. Mr. Jackson Is agent of tho raiiroai. rod of the express company. Nothing was missing from tho oars oi the freight house, although the thieve* nail the keys. The burglary was commit ted by some parties In search of money or valuables that could be easily transport ed, as.they took no bulky articles. “(,'acle Mike." “Uncle Mlko”,has Issued his manifesto, ordering all of his nephews to be und ap pear at the polls in the coming contest, each man armed with a ballot Inscribed upon It “M. W. Tliwoat, for Tax Re ceiver." That they will do it, and do It choerfully le attested by his success In the two last elections; each time he was the choice of the people. He asks a re election, and canb ring as endorsement, his unqualified devotion to tho people, atten tion to his office, and to such an extent that tho Comptroller General of Georgia has written this: “M. W. Thweat, Ro oelvor of Tax Returns for Mucogee coun ty, furnishes the best, neatest and most comprehensive books sent to thle office,” No better endorsement can an officer re ceive, for the iieopleonly require a faith ful performance of duty on the part of their officers, and this, “Uncle Mike” does satisactory to the people, as well as those to whom ho has to make returns.

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.

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. Notice to candidates.

The two Griffin military companies have been invited, and accepted the Invi tation, to go to Atlanta when she gives her jubilee. The Constitution and the New York Her ald have sent Mr. H. W.

Senator Jones, of Nevada, has been in Atlanta recently looking after his ice fac tory. Ho has returned North, but Is con fident of TUden’s election. Atlanta, at the suggestion of several oorresiwndents, has decided to postpone her Tllden Jubilee until after the military have counted the vote in Florida and Lou isiana. Magill Is getting up an excursion to Til den’a Inauguration. Gov. Smith and sev eral others have spoken for berths. The Governor has been hopl.tg for a birth twenty years.

The Colonel (f) has left for Florida. Sunday morning pedestrians on Ala bama street were amazed to see a man’s foot projecting through the top of a large dry goods box on the sidewalk. The top was fastened on and the wonder was, how came the man in there. He, It appears, got on a bender and someone played a practical joke on him by putting him in the box and nailing him up. He was nailed up for the night. He stretched forth a leg yesterday morning to find It fastened in tho cracks of the top of the box. Ho was released ancl now knows how it Is to be In a box.

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. srßscnrpnoK.
