A Deliberate Effort to Wreck a Passenger Train. A diabolic attempt was made to wreck the Alabama Great Southern near Boligee. Ala. Sunday night. Plie would-be wreckers placed a large piece ot bridge timber about fifteen inches square and thiee feet lohg be tween the crossties, at the south end of the Tombigbee trestle. The train was riming about thirty miles an hour when the engine struck the obstruc tion. The engineer applied the air brakes and reversed the engine when it struck the timber, and no damage was done except to the pilot, which was almost demolished. It is a mira cle that the train did not leave the tiack and plunge down the embank ment. G. AY .

The continued rain and cold weather has put the fairuers hack with their work. It seems that the interest of educa tion is at a low, ebb, in this county, here at St. Mary’s Academy,and there iv only a small primary school here, and it is poorly attended when we have enough children to furnish a school of sixty-five or seventy scholars. We have plenty of material in our county for a. State Benat,.r for the Forty-fomth district, and the outlook is promising for plenty of candidates, the friends of the following named gentlemen are urging their claims; Hon. .J. B. Wheeler, Hon. J. T, Wood, Col. R. M. W. Glenn, Col. J. M. Lee, Hiram Smith, Capt. Win. McWilliams and J.

There is no place in the State that can boast of the business that is now being done here and whrTl’we consider that it has been only a few years since the city began to grow so rapidly, one cannot Help expressing a degree of surprise. Within the past few years a great chango has taken place cad the change is almost as eomplet* as if a legion of fairies had snapped their wands over the spot. The silence atonoe ha Id un disputed sway hai gone forevermore, and the musical clatter of the haaij iner and the rasp of the saw atm bo. heard ia every direction ae they sa tiringly labor toward the erection af new and haudsome staetures.
