Tho Purini Association gives a big ball
011 tho evening of March 4th. Those
who Attended tho one given last year by
tho ladies of tho association know what a
delightful entertainment it was. Tho
coming ono will be one of tho grandest

A Catting Affair.
On Tuesday afternoon Henry Arnold or
Stephens, the colored butcher, had a
fuss with Nick Holt, another African.
Tho result was Stephens' thumb was
slightly lacerated, nnd India^ played on
his head. The want of capillary substance
prevented tho scalping. Nick was pre
vented from cutting a jugular by bystand
ers. Henry wns not badly injured. Nick
was sent to jail by Justice Shivers, in de
fault of bail.
Mayor's Court Yesterday.
Bookie Wost lmd boon very drunk, went
to a man’s house, cursed generally, and
refused to be comforted. She spent u
night in the guard-house. She was lined
live dollars, but begged so hard, and pro
mised so faithfully, that she was given
time to pay it.
Richard Ragland, colored, was fined
live dollars for being a drunkard on horse
back and “cavortiu” around tho streets.
Ho bowed his acquiescence ami accepted
tho look-up.
.John G. Davis was a very old man. Ho
said ho was from Meriwether county, had
come here iu a buggy, gotten wet, and of
course took 11 dram to keep it out. Tho
last thing he romemhered was sitting in a
chuir. The Mayor thought ati old man
lmd a right to take a dram after being iu
n rain, and as lie had committed no disor
der, dismissed him. in tho Court tiio
reporter deoliued the old man's request
to allow him to puff his cigar awhile.
Minerva t'leghorn and lloury Coleman,
colored, lmd very doggishly complimented
each other, their parents and relations, to
the remotest degree ; hut ns they had dis
turbed no ono blit themselves and a vis
itor, they were dismissed.

Our city steadily but firmly improves
as tho yearR go by.
Ilea eg Losses.
By tho failnro of tho Tallassoo Factory,
in Alabama, it is reported that Louisville,
Ky., lost $100,000, Montgomery tho same
amount, and Columbus $50,000. A coun
tryman, when tho panic commenced iu
full vigor, drow from ono of our banks
$15,000. Of course, ho said ho had no
doubt of its stability, Jfcc., but ho desired
to invest, &o. As a perfect security ho
invested his money iu tho Tollasseo Fac
tory, and it has gone “where tho wood-
bitio twineth.”
Now lot us compare tho management
of our own manufactories. Thoso of
Columbus have declared dividends of
eight to ton per cout. Louisville has
largo stocks in one, nnd derives a largo
income therefrom. Iu all our mills, this
section and Montgomery aro largely in
terested. This shows management and
security that the most fault-finding
cannot object to. It is a complete refu
tation of any plea that Southern securi
ties aro bad investments.
In contrast with tho fnilnre of the
TallnsNen mills wo contrast that with the
Spragues, of Uhodo Island. Tho roputed
capital was fourteen milium, yet when
the test came, that superb fortune on pa
per Heated unseen iu smoke. Why grum
ble about a single failnro of a small mill
in the South, when there proves to bo
such little stability in tho gigantic estab
lishments at tho North?
Charged with llohbvrg.
Joseph Montgomery was looked up last
night on tho charge of having robbed Mr.
Tom Howard, of Chattahoochee county,
of some $200. Howard was missing for
two days, and his friends having appoint**
ments, instituted search for him. Officer
(.'ash found him iu Blakely’s grocery, but
minus his watch and the money mentioned.
Montgomery had been with him a con
siderable time, and is reported to have
he'»u froo with his money. Montgomery
was one of the operatives brought from
England year before last to work in tho
E. A* P. manufactory. Of late he Iion been
a striker in tho S. W. blacksmith shop.
Yesterday ho drew his wages and was pre
paring to leave the city. This coupled
with the fact that ho htul been seen so
long with Howard, led to his arrest by
Marshal Murphy. There has been a
number of tuouey robberies of Into aud
officers are determined to arrest it if pos
sible.
Personal.
lion. 1». 11. Crawford, Senator from
this district, reached home yesterday on
a brief visit.
Wo have hnd n plensant call from Mr.
Frank J». Evans, of the well kuowu Phila
delphia firm of Kelley A: Moore, shoo
manufacturers, lie is u clever and pol
ished gentleman, and his house could not
have sent a worthier representative. He
was gladly welcomed and received into
their heart of hearts by bis old friends.
Philadelphia is known to be the largest
manufacturing city on the continent, aud
no where cau our merchants find a better
market for tho purchase of shoes and
other articles. That market cannot be
equaled.
‘'Divorce” at the Opera House.
“A delightful play, splendidly ren
dered,” was tho universal encomium of
tho large and well pleased audience that
greeted the Fifth Avenuo Theatre Combi
nation last eveniug. Th^ drama is a
charming, sensational one, full of interest
and with a happy emliug. Every char
acter was presented smoothly aud evenly.
The dressing was rich and tasty, the la
dies handsome and stylish, and every ac-
tor good. We have never witnessed iu
Columbus an eutortaiumeut which gavo
rnoro uualloyed pleasure, and greatest re
gret is expressed that tho company canuot
remain another night. We can soy to our
exchanges the troupe is first olass iu every
respect, aud they canuot give too much
prei.se in advance. The highest anticipa
tions will be mure than realized.
EAGLE AND PHRN1X MANUFAC-
TUR ISO COM PA N Y.
A niuc« t Meeting of S tor k It oltiers — EleHioit
of Directors—Report 0/ the Pres-
ident-Oratlfging ExhIhit.
The Stockholders of tho Eagle’ and
Phenix Manufactory rnet in annnul session
at the Company’s office yesterday. Three-
quarters of the stock was represented.
Upon the request of the Directors, the
Stockholders requested tho present Board
of Directors to memorialize the Legisla
ture to allow an increase of Directors,
making tho number seven instead of live.
The Htockboldors delegated to the present
Dourd the right to elect for this year the
now members.
A resolution was unanimously adopted,
thanking tho managers and officers for
their fidelity and ability displayed in tho
management of tho Company’s affairs.
The following Directors were elected
for 1871 :
N. J. Bussey, W. II. Young, Alfred I.
Young, Dr. T. W. Battle, Lumpkin, Ga.,
and Charles Green, Savannah. This is
the old Board, with tho exception of W.
E. Purrumore, who is succeeded by Dr.
Battle.
Dr. N. J. Bussey was unanimously re
elected President, and G. Guuby Jordan,
Treasurer, for 1874.
Wo append tho report of tho President:
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT.
To the Shareholders of the Lbigle and. Phe
nix Manufacturing Company, of Co
lumbus, Georgia:
The year 1873 opoued encouragingly
for us, and our operations have been con
ducted uninterruptedly to its termination;
increased skill iu our work people, con
tinued amplo power, and a more complete
organization in all departments, enhancing
our production beyond precedent in our
experience. Our mills, filled to their ut
most capacity with heavy machinery iu
restless employ, stand monuments of sta
bility. Further, it is a matter of con
gratulation to know that our immense mo
tive power has been a source of 110 ex
pense, and beyond the item of interest
upon tho original investment, costs us
nothing.
Until September last we were sangnino
that our exhibit for tho your would be one
of extraordinary success, productiou up
to that date having largely increased,
with daily sales in proportion ; but tho
remarkable financial convulsion then set
ting in, extending throughout all our host
trade months, overturned calculation.
As usual with us during tho dull sum
mer months, our accumulations of goods
had been largo, without the wonted rolief
of autumn sales. All was outgoing—
coming in, nothing. To moot these
anomalous conditions and maintuin our
high credit, wo were compelled to reduce
our prices to a point low enough to induce
cash purchases. From this came a shrink
age in value unknown in our experience,
to tho serious reduction of our expoctod
profits. Withal, a fair meusuro of suc
cess was left, enabling us to doclaro our
two half yeavly dividends and pass a ro-
Hpeetablo amount to reservo fund.
On the Now Year our stock of unsold
fabrics was unusually large, throwing ns
later into tho winter for our incomings ;
and for this aud other conservative rea
sons, your Directors have considered it
prudent to appoint tho dividends for
April aud November, at which dutes tho
distributions from our active capital are
easiest made.
Tho Treasurer’s report of our condition
011 tho 1st of January last is :

1873 $140,875 05

Directors have

The balance $ 15,875 05
beiug added to tho reserve. 15,875 05
Bringing up our undivided
profits to $313,041 97
Believing it prudent to lay in a good
portion of our year’s consumption of cot
ton ut prices admitted as below the cost
of production, we have purchased since
1st Janunry to the date of this meeting,
4th February, 1742 bales, biiuging up our
Hotnul stock iu hand to 1785 bales, mostly
of the better grades, and all sound, useful
cotton for our purposes. We have also
bought and paid for during tho mouth of
Jauuary 33,QUO pounds of wool, and $21,-
000 worth of dyestuffs at prices which
ready cash cau alone dictate.
At a specially called meeting of the
shareholders in March last, the Directors
were authorized to proceed at their dis
cretion toward the construction of nn ad
ditional mill (No. 3) upon tho adjacent
valuable site, provided the necessary out
lay did not interfere with the regular per
centage of dividends of the company.
Preliminary steps have been taken in this
direction, and the project of extension,
still favorably entertained, will be carried
out when our surplus funds fully warrant
—not earlier.
It was maiuly in the interest of this
important extension that two members of
our board visited tho machiLe shops aud
constructive departments of Manchester
during tho past summer, but after patient
examinations und estimates tame to tho
conclusion that immediate contracts wore
not desirable—the succeeding events of
September proviug the prudence of their
hesitation. The information brought
back with them will bo of material value
when tho time for action comes.
Tho Rame enro in protecting your inter
ests by tho most select aud widely dis
tributed insurance, tho same vigilant
watchfulness against fire, is practiced as
heretofore. It may be of interest to you
to know that our sales for January of
this year were $12(5,200 49
Against Juuuary, 1873 125,190 3(5
Showing increase this year....$ 1,070 13
Aud this, too, while prices aro 15 to 20
per cent, lower than last yoar.
By authority of special act of the Legis
lature of Georgia we opened on the 1st
of April, 18751, a Savings Depaitment, the
working of which, and its usefulness, dis
appoint no expectation. Its growth was
of vigor, speaking tho confidence of those
wo sought to reach. Its advantage to our
operatives is especially apparent. It pre
sents argumeutH, awakens a desire to save,
correaft wnstofnl habits. In common
with all kindred institutions, this depart
ment, during the recent panic, fouud its
deposits hugely interfered with ; but this
has been reversed us the pressure was
mitigated, aud the contributions spared
from the wages of labor are perhaps now
larger than nt any former time. It is
difficult to oveistate I he value of such re
sources for a class usually improvident,
and it is gratifying to perceive, as we do,
a growing spirit of thrift, self-help and
rospeet among this tho most useful of our
people. Tho unusual fieenrity offered hy
tho compauy to such persons is patent.
Beyoud our available assets, sufficient to
cover any possible contingency, there is
a permanent value in our property beyond
that of money, liable to robbery, or stock
investments, of fluctuating worth and un
certain convertibility.
Tho total number of depositors iu this
department is 378, and for a safe invest
ment of their means confided to our care,
you will note that wo have invested an
amount equal to the Book Deposits iu the
best stock we could buy—our own—which
returns us a sure divideud beyond the por
centnge of interests we pay to the deposi
tors. These investments could bo readily
converted iuto cash iu case of need—not
likely to arise, as it is the settled policy of
tho company to be iu coustant possession
of amplo cash resources.
Reviewing tho past year, reploto with
derangements of no ordinary character, iu
which many kindred enterprises have
been cripplod or bankrupted, it is grate
ful to us to have had tho ability to givg
yon good returns on your investments and
maintain tho strong position our exhibit
shows.
Finally, I acknowledge with pleasure
how much wo owe to all the staff' of tho
compuuy for their faithful co-operation iu
contributing to these results.
Respectfully,
N. J. Bussey, President.

Attention !
As my Address on elementary Agri
cultural Chemistry, teaching the cheap
est and shortest means for procuring and
compounding manures, is enthusiastically
received and heartily endorsed by almost
every intelligent planter in this section,
and that I may be compensated in a meas
ure somowhftt coimnonsurate with the
acknowledged merits of the production
and valno of tho information conveyed,
I do from this date establish the price at
50 cents per copy. Iu consideration of
this eliauge, I do hereby agree to re
fund the money to any farmer who, after
reading the productiou, will certify to me
ho is not fully satisfied with the invest
ment. There is no shivery so hopeless
as that which compels a man to support a
family hy the cultivation of poor laud.
Tho problem to be solved by tho South
before wo can hope for agricultural recu
peration aud prosperity, is cheap aud re
liable manures. The Address soloes that
pvoblem. I defy the agricultural or sci
entific world to disprove ono fact or posi
tion taken in the Add res \.

See for Yourself.
You may rend about a man or a place
for a year, but you can get no idea of
either compared w ith one-half hour’s ac
tual observation. This truth will be soon
made manifest by anybody who will take
tho trouble to stop at the store of Joseph
& Bro. ll will be 6een at once that the
advertisement does not convey the faint
est idea of the sacrifice they are making
in dry goods of every description. The
truth caunot be contradicted that they are
solliug goods to-dny cheaper than they can
bo bought for iu New York, and lower in
Borne cases than the cost of manufacture.
Retail denlers should avail themselves of
this fact as well as general consumers.
They are always ready to prove the above.
