The physicians found It necessary to amputate one of his thumbs. Mr. Knapp, advance agent of Robin son’s Circus, called to see us yesterday. Mayor’. Court. The attendance on the court was slim. Charles Moore and Emily Cove were charged with disorderly conduct. Their cases wore dismissed, as it was a kind of family fuss. A fellow in the guard-house was to be tried, but he was too drunk to be brought up. Ho will be better by this morning. Marriage. Tuesday night Mr. liichard Dexter, of this city was married in Montgomery to Miss Eller Bellinger. They were married at the residence of the bride. Mr. Dexter is the son of Mr. C. E.

Correction. Box String, November 15,1876. Editor Times ln your statement of the burglary at Box Spring, It would appear that Agent Jackson's keys were stolen from my store, which was not tho case. They were taken from Mr. Jackson’s pri vate office; also, a shawl belonging to him. Please correct, ami oblige your sub scriber. j. j. Chapman. Ia Meaaorlam. Tuesday .night a committee from the Young Men’s Catholic Union, Instead of following the beaten track in such mat ters, presented to Mrs. Dlcguan, sister of Mr. Peter Clark, a deceased member of the Union, a handsomely gotten up mo moriam of her brother. The resolutions of the Union, passed on the occasion of his death, are written on parchment and incased in a pretty frame. On the oentre is a fine likeness of Mr. Clark. The entire get up displayed much taste and appropriateness. Mr. George Burros was ebairman of the committee. THAT lUILIOAD CAE*. WILL TUB CITY MOVE IS THE MATTER. Columbus has slumbered over her Inter ests until shebecamo bound and girded by a powerful railroad monopoly. Through the Instrumentality of Maj. R. J. Mosos and others, the light of freedom logins to break In upon ue, and In Its effulgence to show how we have been treated and by whom. The bill of Injunction asked against tho Central Railroad by some of the stockholders of the Mobile & Girard Road, shows a terrible state of things, and makes a clear case of want of perfor mance of contract. Columbus hss sunk thousands of dollars In railroads, and, speculators and others have reaped tho odvantago. Will the city, that has nearly three hundred thousand dollars invested, help the investigation by allowing herself to be made a party to tho bill. We hopo so. Tbo people should demand It, and If not done now, bo made an Issue In the coming municipal race. Let those men who are willing to help free Columbus from monopolies of all kinds, and take advantage of opportunities to better her finances, be called to tho front. If any man has any Interest at stake by which ho Is hampered, let him vacate the board, and give way to men resolved to stand by the rights of the city and her citizens. Wo arc informed that the objeot of this bill Is to reinstate all the stock cancelled to the Central ltoad, and to turn the Road back to the stockholders. If It is accom plished, the city will have $300,000 worth of good stock, worth eighty or ninety cts. In the dollar, wheroos now she has only $150,000. We are Informed that tho city cou employ lawyers In the prosecution of tho case, who will agree to “nooure.no pay,” so strong Is their faith In the suc cess of tho suit. We gave a full account of the suit In our Issue of yesterday. Will tho City Council act? If not, will the next? A Columbus Youth In Trouble. A young Columbus man, who gives his name as W. A. Howard, Is In trouble In this city, and the trouble promises to l>e of a very,serious nature. A’young Irish man arrived In the city Sunday morning, having with him a very genteel looking vallso. Howard chanced to meet with him, and, llndlng that tho young man was a little short of means and desired cheap accommodations durlug tho brief stay he intended to make hero,{commenced atten tions, with the ostensible purpose of be friending him. He.took him to a boarding house, where they took .breakfast and din ner, and strolled about town with him all day. Late injtho evening the young man concluded to go to anothor house, and took hlsjvallse for thnt.purpose. Howard still accompanied him, and volunteered to carry his valise part of the way. As they were coming down Fourth stroet the young man stopped to enquire of a negro the direction to the housejwhich lie want ed toJiroach, andlwhilol.he was thus on gagod Howard ran oil with tho valise. OfllcorslGraca and Sliupson wore at once notlflod!of,the occurrence, and in a short time they overtook Howard near tho fac tory, with the valise In Ills possession. He was Inquiring tholway to the nearost out of-town station on the Macon and Western Railroad, obviously with the intention of getting away. Ho was takon In custody andjlodged in.llio'barracks and yesterday a warrant was]|taken out for his detention. The valise; contained a very good wardrobe, a portlon’of which was new. Howard says he came from Columbus, where he haa relatives living. He and a chum, he says, arrived here Thursday evening. The chum in question appears to have disappeared since Howard's ar rest— Macon Telegraph.. Theffiyoung man is from Columbus. While herejho appeared to lie an industri ous young man, but would sometimes get on a little frolic. ATLANTA NOTES. Judge William Ezzard Is an independent candidate for Tax Beceivor of Fulton county. He says he makes the race be cause the nominee is not a Democrat. Mr. Blnyon, the defaulting Cashier of the Atlanta National Bank (in that he made away with $16,500), was found guilty before the United States Court on last Saturday.

Tho canvass in which I took part us a cundidate for Congress has closed. Without stopping to. inquire Into the manner In which the canvass was con ducted. or to exhibit the means by which the result was accomplished, it is proper to say something of tho principles in volved In the contest. I complain of nothing; my personal for tunes are of much lass Importance than the great principles which I undertook to maintain before the people. I say nothing of the extraordinary exer tions made to givo succoss to the party organization which I confronted; nor of the unparalleled methods employed to bring tho full power of that organization to boar upon my position. But I cannot consent that my position shall !>o misun derstood. In consenting to submit my name to the poople as a candidate for Congress. In ad vance of the meeting of a convention, and without reference to Its action, I compre hended that I should encounter the hostil ity of thoso who were Interested in main taining the supremacy of party machin ery over the people. But I could not foresee that my course would bo construed Into hostility to tho party. Having acted with that party since Its present organization was formed; having uniformly advoca ted its groat national principles; having contributed what I could to give succes to Its policy, and having In my letter which first brought me before the people, and in all ray speeches, declared my purpose to support Sir. Tllden for the Pres idency, ‘ F did not suppose that the most persistent misrepresentations of those who opposed me, could so far mis lead the people as to make them believe that my position was, In any sense, an tagonistical Jto the interests of the Demo cratic party. But, early in the canvass, I saw that I must encounter the most for midable odds. Without a press to sustain me, with a single exception, I could com municate with the people of an extensive District only by an occasional address to them. Every effort was made to bring the full force of the party machinery to bear upon the people. Never was Its sway more vigorously or more relentlessly ex erted. Appeals were made to the mem bers of the party to close up the columns; and not oontent with the full power of the press, gentlemeivlistingulsned for ability and Influence were brought into the Dis trict to harangue tho people upon the danger of any departure from the serried lines of the “Organized Democracy.” Eyery one supposed to be in sympathy with the movement in belialf of the free and Independent action of the people, was entreated to stand fast; and the move ment was denounced as inopportune, and full of danger to the national Interests of the party. * With my experience In public life, it was plain to me, that 1 must either decline to go on with the canvass, or, in the face of this formidable array of power and influ ence, continue to press upon the people the groat principles for which I was con tending. with whatever of courage or vigor I could command; so that, if I suf fered a personal defeat, I might at least open the way for the future triumph of those principles—principles dear to free’ men and essential to tho stability and glory of the Republic. I have done what I could to maintain these principles. If I have not won a per sonal triumph, I trust that I have con tributed something towards the enfran chisement of the people, and the growth of a patriotic sentiment that embraces the whole country. In the course of my struggles, I know that I havo had the sympathy of many truo and brave men. The able letters of Hon. H. V. M. Miller and Hon. Robert Toombs have animated me in tho unequal contest, and they will yet exert a wide in fluence over the people. In my letter announcing my willingness to submit my name directly to the people, certain groat principles were asserted. My confidence in their complete triumph is undiminished. I re-assert the Importance of encourag ing the people to take an active part in the management of their political affairs, to think for themselves; to act for them selves; to feel that the Government Is their Government; and to rise to a full view of the granduer of their position. A free people establishing their institutions on this continent, washed by the two great oceans of the world, should compre hend the principles of their own Govern ment, and shape its destiny. A freo Gov ernment, animated by the living spirit of the people, Is the greatest, best and hap piest of all political systems; but when the people cease to take an active part in controlling their own Government, and submit to the domination of a few man agers who undertake to relieve them from the task of Government, it loses it chlefest and most glorious distinction, and degen erates Into a feeble oligarchy. It Is ossentlal too, to restore a broad na. tional, patriotic sentiment that embraces the whole country. Tho government oan notbe administeredupon the theory of re sontments. We must overcome sectional ism at the North, and at the South. There should be a true, generous and perfect reconciliation and restoration in all the land. Our National elections should have reference not to sectional issues, but to questions affecting the prosperity and the welfare of the country in its largest ex tent. We must re-lnvigorate the princi ples of tho Constitution, and Insist upon an administration of Government that will advance the goootl of every section, and lift up the down-trodden portions of the country. These are the principles which I have assisted and endeavored to maintain In your presence. It has been ray aim to conduot the canvass with dignity and fairness; and to discourage everything which could defeat the free expression off the will of the people. I am unconscious of having departed from this course in a single instance. Confident in the begin ning that I was right in the position which I assumed, I have held it steadily agatnst all assaults; and I hold it to-day In the face of all opposition. To those who have stood with me, I am profoundly grateful. I eannot find lan guage to express my thanks for the noble and oourageous support which they have given me throughout the canvass that has now ended. 1 hope that we shall wit ness the early and perfect triumph of the principles which we have in common en deavored to uphold.

His Pathetic Article. From the Detroit Free Preaa. On the Bay City train coming down yes terday was a passenger whose strange ac tions drew the attention of every one in the car. He had a newspapaer in one hand and a handkerchief in the other, and he would read for a minute or two and then turn away and weep. After this action had continued for some time one of his fellow passengers approached him and tenderly remarked: ‘My friend, you seem to feel sorrowful.’ ‘So 1 do,’ was the choked reply. ‘Have you had some great bereavement 1 ’ ‘Not very lately. I was reading a pa thetic article in this paper, and it calls up old recollections.’ ‘Let me see it,’asked the gentleman, and taking the paper he found that the article commenced with: ‘All persons are hereby forbidden to trust my wife after this date", as she has left my bed and board,' and so forth. He didn't know what to say in reply, and as he handed the paper back without a word the grief-stricken man remarked: ‘I haven’t been so affected for fifteen years!’ •Why, what has this to do with you!’ was the surprised query. ‘Th-there’s a fond wife turned out on— on the world,’ replied the weeper; ‘no home, no cash; no credit. Poverty drives her to sleep in a barn. During the night she rolls off the hay mow, strikes on the fanning.mill, breaks her neck and is found dead the next day! The husband and seven children gather around the body, and—and—but can you imagine that scene and not weep? Lend me some of that tobacco and leave me alone with my grief. I feel like a spring break-up and I know it's better for my system than quinine.’ They stood back and let him grieve, and he didn’t seem to get over it a bit until he saw a dog fight on the platform at a station. That entered his soul like a ray of sunshine, and as the train moved on he stood up and said: ‘l’ll bet any cadaver in this car $5 that the wall-eyed dog gets licked!’ How the Nevada Indians Live. Eureka Sentinel, Oct. 29.—The weather yesterday wa of a character to depress the spirits of the noble red man. A dead-in earnest snow-storm he didn’t mind a bit; but wet, thawing weather gets him. When the snow banks up on his wickiup it aids to keep him warm; but in a rain or thaw the trickling moisture workß through the boles in his res idence, which is constructed of pretty much all holes, and the cold drops insidiously crawl under his clothes at his neck and creep down his spine and make him get up and howl. In such weather he don’t believe that there is no place like home, and so he don’t stay at home, He wraps his blanket about him and Seeks the haunts of the pale faces, and lounges on the street corners and chats with his own or some other Indian’s squaw. When it is considered that the In dians sleep at night on the damp ground, with scarcely any shelter to speak ot, and during the day time, no matter how severe the weather, seldom enter a house, one would think their lives must be miserable to an ex treme. But such does not seem to be the case; they were born on the bleak hillsides and the miserable structure for which hut is too good a name is the only kind of horns they have ever known. Most of them would die if forced to live in a comfortable dwell ing; and, so long as they possess a blanket and get enough to eat and can earn a little silver to gamble with, they are far more happy and contented than the majority of white people who live in luxury.

St If )6f | fcJa. rfHK POLITICAL CAMPAIGN OF 1876, WHICH JL includes National, SUte and county elections, and which will undoubtedly be the most active and hotly contested of any since the memorable canvass of iB6O, is now fairly opened. The Na tional Democratic Party will this year make a .hold, vigorous, and doubtless successful strug gle for the maintenance and supremacy of those principles which are vital to the prosperity ot the Republic and essential to the well-being of the people. In addition to the Presidential election, the people in Georgia and Florida will elect new State governments. In Florida the campaign promises to be unusually vigorous, 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 paigns the people of the South are deeply inter ested; and ever* intelligent citizen, who has the welfare of his country and his section at heart, should acquaint himself with every detail of the great work of redemption and reform that is now going on. To this end he should subscribe to and assist in circulating the Savannah Morning New*. an independent Democratic newspaper, of pro uounced opinions aud 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 affairs ia not confined to a mere barren summary of events tranapiric;; in those States, but is eullvened by comment at once apt, timely, and racy. The ample resources of the establishment will be devoted to furnishing the readers of the MORNING NEWS with the latest intelligence 'rom all parts of the world, through th£ press dispatches, special tel egrams, aud by means of special correspondent*!; and through these agencies the paper will be the earliest chronicler of every noteworthy incident of the political campaign of 1876.
