Montgomery Mardl ora*.
Our Montgomery friends are making
amplo preparations to make the ap
proaching carnival a "big thing,” and it
it falls in its proportions it will not be the
fault of the liberal and publio spirited
gentlemen who have taken the matter in
hand. We doubt if tho New Orleans show
exceeds it enough to justify the greater
expense of going there. The Rtx, of Ala
bama, whose capital city is Montgomery,
is a Prince of Kings, and he will see that
his subjects all have a good time. See his
Royal proclamation In another column,
and consider whether the 13th instant may
not be better spent in Montgomery than
anywhere else, at the cost of money and
time.
That's the true policy; selling off old
stock at a sacrifice, and opening fresh
goods at giit-edge prices, and this Is why

Gentlemen In Demine.
DIGNITY LAID ASIDE AND UUOTKBqUKNMM
PUT ON.
At an early hour all the white and pink
dominos had assembled. Although every
one expected to find a sameness in them,
yot, oven under the same grotesque garb,
there was an individuality that could not
be laid aside.
“But why they twbar L*nt with to much glu In,
la mora tliau I cau tail, although I guaaa,
'Tlo aa wa taka a glaaa with friend at parting. La
In the etage-eoach or pocket jnat at atarting."
The part of the room divided off for
spectators was completely filled, and until
a late hour was Jammed with the Im
mense number that crowded In. The same
beautiful decorations that characterized
the Bal Masque, wore also dlsplayod
around the brilliantly llghtod room.
f|The central columns wore wound around
with blue and pink, the windows, balco
nies and chandeliers, were hung with the
lively green of the bambroo briar, and to
crown the whole and make a complete
vision, wero the pink and white forms
whirling and gliding beneath them.
During the earlier hours sevoial ludi
crous sconce happened among the pink
dominoes. One, after being dressed with
somo difficulty, sauntered Into the danc
ing hall, but pretty soon after hurried
Into the front hall.hts mask twisted awry,
his eyes where mouth should have boon,
concealing his sight, and permitting many
practical jokes to be played upon him by
the spectators. One joke troubled this
domino very much, which was that he
carried a large podro on his back, and
nothing could satisfy him but to take off
tho whole concern and sco lor himself.
Another pink fellow darted Into the danc
ing hall, switching a largo tiltcr behind
him. He "took” so well with
white boautlos, that the tiller became
quite joalous and desired its share of tho
profits by "showing up” upon which tho
pink droppod down and scooted out. Pink
Domino returned very soon but minus his
victorious appondago.
Up to the time of unmasking, a jollier
time was never experienced.
At eleven o’clock came tho grand trans
formation, masks were torn off, revealing
strango and surprised faces, and many
neodlng an Introduction. After some
little delay, pink became black, tho white,
the many colors of the rainbow.
“And truth to say, they’re mostly very
pretty,” and somo wero beautiful.
The canary, vermlllion and azure bod
ices were exceedingly striking and styl
ish, but thotr possessors were more so.
We noticed among tho beautiful strangers
at the ball Miss Leila Mims, who lately
arrived In our city from LaGrango.
Far, far into tho hours of the night the
delightful dance was continued, and until
another swiftly passing year rolls by, we
shall keep in sweet remembrance—
'‘Those forma which flit bjr as, when wo
Ars young, and fix our eyes on every face;
And, oh I the lovelineee at times we see
la momentary gilding, tho soft grace,
The youth, tho bloom, the beauty which a-ree."
The Poat-ofllcc stock Down.
Tho chances for a fair peep behind tho
Returning Boards, by tho Electoral Com
mission at Washington City, looked so
questionable yesterday that somo of the
patriotic aspirants to the Columbus Post
mastership wero blue and talked seriously
about throwing up their papers and
abandoning the field in despair. ’Twould
be sad, now. If their fears should be real
ized, and after all, the long petitions and
llattering letters so seasonably obtained,
should count for naught and have to lie
laid quietly away. Tho case 1* not en
tirely hopeless, howevor, and we will
therefore say, don’t glvo up yet, brethren,
but “hold fast to that thou hast,” for
"thou knowost not what a day may bring
forth.”
IVe will just say furthor, for tho consola
tion of those "who are without hope,” that
they will not lose much, after all; for the
“old Post-Oflluo” is not worth over $2,300
per annum, and who would work for
that ? Echo answers, “Who ?”
Ilea Hi ot rapt. Geo. T. L. Robison.

At the springing of the mine at Peters
burg, just before the close of tho war,
Copt. Robison received a wound,—being

Noarly all the young people of Columbus
will remember the Captain as the pleasant
instructor in dancing, who had and taught

since. We offer our sympathy to hio
aged father and surviving brother.
Georgia Constitutional Convention.
So sure do some of our fellow-citizens
feel that the Legislature will pass the bill
calling a constitutional convention, that
they are already casting about for suita

that none but the best hoads and sound

Work st Uir southwestern Railroad
short.
We are glad to see Mr. Cicero H. Buch
anan has returned to Columbus, from
Montgomery. Mr. Buchanan is a fine
machinist, and comes back to the South
western Railroad Shops, where lie has
worked for some years, except a few
months recently passed in Montgomery.
He Informs us that work at the South
western Railroad Shops is reviving, and
that, besides himself, several other addi
tional workmen have been given places.
This is encouraging. The work of rail
road machine shops requires the labor of
the very beet workmen of the country,
and their residence in a town is always
desirable—for they are good citizens, as
well as skillfnl workmen.

The contested election is beginlng to
grow very tiresome. Hammond Is de
termined to see that both sides show up
hands. Tho Louisiana returning board
business Is a small potato beside this.
The Air-Line road gave the railroad
pools some trouble at their meeting In
Atlanta last week, and It Is believed by
some that the Air-Lino will envontually
accomplish the good work of breaking up
the pools.

The Welsh “Boy Frearlier."
The Rev. D. D. Rowland was callod to
ths pastoral care of tho First Baptist
Church of this city last Thursday evening,
and If ever a providential blessing was
realized by any church or oommuulty It Is
certainly realized in this very signal In
stance. Our Welsh “Boy Preacher,” (by
whieh sobriquet ho Is familiarly known
all over South Wales, in Great Britain,)
since bis arrival In this country, has visit
many Western cities, where he has cre
ated a profound and enthusiastic impres
sion by his powerful and deep toned
spiritual preaching. The religious press
regard him as a Kpurgeonlc Boanerges,
not only as to zeal, but as to his rare In
tellectual ability, vast resources, apt
power of Illustration, pathos and religious
unction. You must hear him to appreci
ate such unusual pulpit power and thrill
ing religious eloquence. The old saying
that Welsh people are “native preachers,”
Is more than verified in this young Welsh
flame, whose wonderful appeals to head
and heart can set ablaze and charm the
most obdurate. Our “boy preacher” has
been preaching In the ministry of the
Baptist Church sinoe be was sixteen years
old, and is now but twenty-six. His
father and a brother wero ministers; In
deed, he comes from a long line of eminent
ministers in Wales, some of whom are
known to Welshmen of this city. As an
evidence of the charm of his devout elo
quence large numbers have been unable
to gain admittance owing to the crowded
condition of the congregation. His large
prayer meetings, too, is another evidence
of the wonderful religious fascination
with which ho attracts the devout, serious
and curious. Ho proaches every Sunday
morning and evening.—.AT. O. Picayune.
Tho above shows how genius Is appre
ciated in a large city. We all have heard
the “boy preacher,” in the pulpit of the
Baptist Church of Columbus, where his
eloquence electrified us. It Is well that
Providence has cast his abode in a great
city, where he could find that distinction,
which is duo to eminent talent and learn
ing.
A BONANZA OF FIFTEEN MILLION!*.
A WINDFALL FOII THE UAZZAIID FAMILY.
Legacies and fortunes are accept
able to everyone at all times, but at
this particular juncture the news of
an unexpected bonanza in this line
would be received with greater satis
faction than ever by the average citi
zen, especially one who has suffered
from war and pestilence. The Haz
zard family in this city and State are
therefore to be congratulated, as re
cent information has been received
by one of the members that thore is
now within their reach a handsome
estate valued at $15,000,000 in Bristol,
England. This informUtion comes
through legal gentlemen—Col. W. G.
McAdoo, of Miiledgeville, and Col.
W. Robert Giguilllatt, of Darien, Ga.
Thes<* gentlemen state that all that is
requisite to establish a claim to this
property is the proof of descent of
theAmericau Ilazzard family from
the family in Bristol, England. This
sine qua non is not difficult, and it is
therefore most probable that the few
surviving direct heirs, if tho matter
be properly managed, will soon be
enabled to enjoy this goodly wind
fall. The legal heirs of this estate,
as far as we are enabled to learn, are
Mrs. Isabella Floyd, now deceased,
who has two children residing in
Savanah, Mrs. Mary Hazzard Hamil
ton, mother of Marmaduke Hamil
ton, E3q., and Mrs. Dr. Laßoache,
and other sons and daughters living
at various places in Georgia ana
Florida, Mrs. Mary ~T. Bacon, sister
of Mrs. Floyed, also deceased, whose
only living child is Mrs. 8. A. Fraser,
residing at Hinesville, Liberty coun
ty, Ga.
Win. H. Hazzard, sr., brother of
Mrs. Floyd and Mrs. Bacon, was the
third of the direct heirs. Surviving
him are only two children, Allen B.
Hazzard, Esq., and Mrs. Louisa
White, of this city.
These,if we are correctly informed,
constitute the surviving members of
tho American branch of the Hazzard
family, and as their descent from the
Bristol family to whom this im
mense estate belonged is clear, it will
be seen that they have a floe pros
pect of becoming millionaires, Tne
claim is now in the bands of the law
yers, and a member of the family,
Captain Floyd, who is now in Eu
rope, is looking after the interest.
We trust the claimants will prove
successful, ns we would enjoy seeing
a Tew more millionaires in good old
Savannab.— Sar. hews.
The Reporter, — There was a riot one
day on Pantheon Place, Paris. Donzelon
sat down amid a hail of stones, pen if,
band, to note down the events, One to
his friends who happened to lie present
said,“What are you doing here? Run! fly?”
Donzelot, without looking at him, drew
his watch and continued to write down
minute for minute the phases and evolu
tions of the riot.
“Are you not going to run?” cried out
anew his friend
“God forbid; no, but since you arc go
ing yourself, oblige me by handing this to
my journal; you will tell them that I re
main on the spot to send the continua
tion.”
An hour after the disorder was at its
height. The authorities and insurgents
had come to blows. The national guard
fired, and our reporter was 6truck with a
ball. A surgeon hastened to him.
“Are you wounded?” said he.
“YesJ’ said Donzelot, “and sorely too,
for I cannot write.”
“Write!” said surgeon, abruptly; think
of your wound!”
“Don’t be in a hurry,” replied Donzelot.
“Each one to his own business; mine is
to relate events, you will replace me. Here
write at the bottom this postscript: ‘Twen
ty minutes past 3 P. M. In consequence
of the cischarge of musketry by the troops,
three men were wounded and one kill
ed.
“Where is the dead man?” asked the
surgeon.
"Myself,” replied Donzelot, and he
expired.

Consumptives take Notice.
Every moment of delay makes your
cure more hopeless, and much depends on
the judicious choice of a remedy. The
amount of testimony In favor of Dr.
Mchonck’s Pulmonic Syrup, as a cure for
Consumption, far exceeds all that can he
brought to support the pretensions of
any other medicine. See Dr. Schenck's
Almanac, containing the certificates of
many persons of the highest respectabili
ty, who have been restored to health,
after being pronounced Incurable by
physicians of acknowledged ability
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup alone has
cured many, as these evidences will show;
but the cure Is often promoted by the em
ployment of two other remedies which
Dr. Bchenck provides for the, purpose.
These additional remedies aro Schenck’s
Sea Weed Tonic and MandrAke Pills. By
the timely use of these medicines, accord
ing to directions, Dr. Schenck certifies
that most any case of Consumption may
be cured.
Dr. Schenck Is professionally at his
principal office. Corner Sixth and Arch
streets. Philadelphia, every Monday,
