PBOMPTLY PRINTED AT THE TIMES JOB OFFICE. fUrcUnn To-llay, To-day the election takes place for a Mayor, Board of Aldermen, Marshal, Clerk, and Sexton. The various candi dates have all been announced, and to night late we will all know who Is the choice of the people. By this time nearly every voter has determined on his choice for tho various offices. Wo hope every voter will roallze In his candidate, If elect ed, all the requisites that go to make a good officer. Columbus needs men in office who know what to do, and arc not so situ ated as to embarrass them. She needs men of nerve and a desire to officer for the whole people, and not for a few only, and who'can.ut all times be found at thoir posts. When we have done this, every citizen .of Columbus will be safe in his liberty and property, and the city at large be placed in a condition to curtail her ex penses and reduce taxation. John Itnlilnsmi * Cirrus. Yesterday afternoon, and last night, “Old Jno. Robinson’s” circus gave exhibi tions la the city. Our exchanges had led ua to expect a rarotreat, and we can triumphantly say wo were not disappointed, 'lho circus was far above the average. In the ring were real artists In their professions You might travel the world over and not llnd a more lively or comical clown than Jno. Lowlow. He is a Georgian by birth, having been raised in 4Hflknnuh. His Jokes are good, while his own good humor takes tho audience with him. Prof. Riley as a ledgerdemalu performer is an acquisition to any circus. His feats are very good. One of the best tlilugs we saw was the slack rope performance. The antics on that rope are worth the price of admission. We have not seen such a performance, nor one that elicited more applause from an audience. Robert Slickney maintained his record as the best bare back rider in tho ring. He is the personification of grace and agility. Tho riding of tho Columbus favorite, Minnio Marks, is wonderful. A year ago she was quite a child, but since then has grown almost to the stature of a woman. Though she is a favorite here, yot it seems Columbus Is an unlucky place for her. Everytime she has performed she has met with some accident Yesterday she fell from her horse, and narrowly escaped a serious accident. She remounted, and wontthrough her part in full style. Altogether the performance was excel lent. It was an improvement upon the last show of Mr. Robinson, and ano that afforded general satisfaction. For an afternoon performance, wo do not remember to have seen a better or more refined audience, by which we mean, more ladies. The tent at night was filled even crowded; showing the appreciation of a first-class circus. Tho popular and clever agent, Sam Jo seph, we recommend to those of the press who do not already know him. He under stands how to take care of his friends, and his troupe. CANDIDATES CAN HAVE TICKETS WITH ANY COMBINATION OF NAMES, PROMPTLY PRINTED AT THE TIMES JOR OFFICE. Judge Cooper William* It affords us pleasure to copy the follow ing notice from the Hamilton Journal Oi our friend Cooper Williams. We hope he will never have opposition so long as he wants to.be ordinary of Harris county: “We are requested to announce that His Honor,LJ. F..C.

A Mhowman • Liberality, Old John Boblnson, during his many vis its to the Hout.h, has always received the most liberal patronage from our citizen". It la to them ho is Indebted for the posi tion he now occupies as a manager. On the occasion of every visit, howover, made by him to Memphis, Twin., during the last twenty years, wo learn, a benefit has been given to tho orphans of that city—the proceeds derived from this source during the time epeoiiied amounting to over $lO,- 000. This is only a solitary Instance of his liberality, to which our recollection has been called. T>day this splendid strew gives an ex hibition at Seale, Ala., snd’from there, we learn, they go to Troy. To the people of those placos we heartily recommend the show. Tho collection of animals Is fine, and. In fact, most excellent for a traveling menagerie. The horses nro good, and not broken down animals, and the performers first-class. Boblnson never does anything halfway, and on this aocount has built up a splendid reputation in tho South as a showman. When the winter season Is ovor the circus will rendezvous In Atlanta, where Mr. Robinson has made a largo real estate In vestment. More Mieep, Last year we paid foreign countries lift y millions of dollars for woolen goods and eleven millions of dollars for unmanufac tured goods. When wo have in tho coun try twenty millions more sheep than we now have, we shall only produce what wool we use; and yet there Is no country on earth where It would seem sheep could bo ruised so profitably as In the United States. But we are coming every year nearer to supplying our own murkets with the wool they demand. In 1875 the wool clip of the country was nearly 200,- 000,000 pounds, while In 1860 it was only 75,000,000 pounds Memphis Appeal. Who Was rain * Wife? From the Nur York World.] Tho Rev. 0. P. McCarthy, who preaches every Sunday in the University Building, Washington Square, as pastor of what is called the American Free Church, endeav ored to answer the question, "Who Was Cain’s Wife?” last evening. He took his text from tho fourth chapter of Genesis and the seventeenth verse. The preacher said that he had selected the peculiar sub ject announced at the request of several members of the congregation. Malntain lng.thut old theories as to the meaning of the Bible stories had ceased to be tenable because of tho increased light of science, he said that the theory held by many as to Cain’s wife would have to be abandon ed. “The orthodox answer to tho ques tion." said he, “Is, porhaps Cain married his sister. Well, I don’t think he did. Now, I am not going to shirk the answering of this question. I have a theory of our race which others do not believe In. Nine out of ten believe that the human race came from one pair. 1 don’t believe it. Do you say that is heretical ? Perhaps it is not a question, to bo answered by those who cling to the old theories. That old theory can never answer it. In the first place. Cain could not have married his sister when he departed to the land of Nod, because he had no sister. When Seth was born Adam was only one hundred and thirty years old, a very young man for those days, and Seth was his third child. There is no montton of daughters. In the second place, Cain departed to a country whore thore were people, and ho feared those people would slay him because of his crime, and tho Lord recognized tho reality of this danger and sot a mark on him that ho might be saved. Tho Bible nowhere states that there were only two people originally created. Adam was the generic name for tho human race, and ’male and female created he them.’ Do you believe that negroes and Chinese are the descendants of tho same progenitors with ourselves? I don’t.- Cain went over Cos the lund of Nod. and there became the chief of a raco which he found there. He built a city. Hecould’t have dono this alone. This, then, must be my answer to the question; there were races of people upon the earth at the time Cain was driven out a vagabond, and from this raco Cain took his wife. The preacher dwelt at considerable length on the lesson lo be drawn from tho life of Cain, and exhorted all to avoid the little sins, for oven Cain did not become a murderer all at once, but was led up to that great crime by envy and jealous feelings. Tlic “Mnamp Angel " The Parrotguu, known familiarly us ‘The Swamp Angel,’ with which Gen. Boaure g*rd’s assurance to the people of Charles ton that the Federal butteries on Morris Island could not Injure their city, turns up after thirteen years in New Jersey. There was great consternation among the Charsletouians on the 21 of August, 1863, when tho huge projectiles came whiz zing from the marsh on Morris Island, nearly four miles distant, and burst near the battery. The distance was too great, however, to allow tho gun to be worked. Aftor a few rounds, it was overloaded and burst aud all the toil of Gen. Gilmore and his assistants came suddenly to naught The experiment was never repeated on tho same scale. At the close of the war the “Swamp An gel” was bought with a number of other guns as scrap iron by Mr. Charles Carr, an iron manufacturer of Trenton, N. J., in whose possession it has until recently re mained. The citizens of East Trenton have now brought it and utilized it as a monument. It stands at the corner of Perry street and Clinton avenue. Its for mal dedication is to take place to-morrow. The gun aimed to the eastward, is mounted on a Trenton brown stone pedes tal, on the sides of which is inscribed the “Swamp Angel, the first gun, an eight inch Parrot rifle or 200 pounder, fired from Marsh battery, on Morris Island, 8. C., at the city of Charleston, 7,000 yards distant. Weight of gun, 16,500 pounds. Weight of projectile, 150 pounds. Charge of pow der, 16 pounds. Greatest elevation used, 35degrees.
