Col. Blandford appeared for the prosecution; C. H. Williams, Esq., for the defense. Losing at farming. We hear of a farmer who raised . r »00 bales of cotton last season and lost $10,- 000 by the operation. No corn was on his plantation. Disastrous seasons was an other cause. A farmer in Southwestern Georgia, whose crop amounted to 1,100 bales of cotton and plenty of corn, lost $6,000. The latter was due to storms, which bent out and destroyed several hundred balos by a hurricane of wind and rain, and a few by fire. Had it not been for these, he would have made a large income from farming operations.

Cal Wagner and his minstrels are due here on Wednesday and Thursday nights. There is to be a private or pobiio party every evening this week. So the week is to be a regular gala time with pleasure seekers. I7m Georgia Agricultural Convention. This Convention of Georgia farmers oonveuos in the Opera House, in Colum bus, on Tuesday morning. Arrangements have been effected to entertain all the delegates and give them a grand supper on Thursday evening. The supper and ball will take place at the Perry House. Gen. A. H.

Hiuoe August 81st, the Colnmbns facto ries have taken 0,002 bales of cotton, against 2,646 last season during same time; showing an increase of 1,256. these 8,002 bales had been sold in this market at present prices, th«y would have brought $70 per bale, or a total of $273,- 140. They, however, were passed through our factories, converted into yarns and cloths, and their value trebled, making them worth $810,420, leaving a net gain to Colnmbns of $546,280. All this money is ret lined in our section. Our mannfuo- Ifoir a us Clayton Was Killed. A special to the G dveston Nows, dated Waco, February 4, says: “A desperate and murderous altercation took place hore to-night, at half-past 8 o'clock, between two gimblers named George E. Sims and Gas Clayton, in Fulton’s bar-room. Eight shots were fired across the room, three taking effeot in Clayton—one tbrongh the left nipple and two in the neck—which will prove fatal. Sims was shot in the broast, the ball lodging in the back. He ii under arrest. A woman was the cense of the tragedy.” Real Estate Transfers. The following transfers have been re- corded in the Clerk's office since onr last report : E. Sims Banks to W. E. Farramore— 175 aorea in Coweta Reserve—$4,444. T. 8.

Owing to the press of matter we are compelled to omit to-day our recollections of the former days of Columbus. From 1840 the iuterest increases and hot polit ical contests, and shortly after the moot, ing of our railroad and fire depart merit interests oommenoed. Of all of those we propose to give a history, which will be published in onr Suudsy paper. SpHce was required for more interesting matter to-day. We are not much of an admirer of the past, only as it affords lessons for the future. Hence wo desire to give more than a mere abstract. The chronol ogy of events will be continued in our next Sunday paper. County Court — The Xew Judge and Solicitor. Our speoial dispatches of yesterday an nounce that Captain J. F. Pon has been appointed Judge, and Reese Crawford Solicitor of Musoogee County Court, iu lieu of the present incumbents. Of thnir confirmation by the Senate there cau be no doubt. The former officers have nevor beon confirmed, though they have filled tho offices which they have held accept- ably over a year. Captain Pou is numbered among our best lawyers, and bleuds in his character the polish and dignity of the true gentle man and Christian. Ho will make a wort by and impartial judge. lie has represented our county in the Legislature during one term, aud came very noar being elecied the candidate for Congress by the Demo cratic Convention of this District. He is a man with a oool, clear brain, and an >1. cellent judge of law. Reese Crawford, the new Solicitor, i> a young man, and has au excellent reputa tion as an advocate. He is a son of Hon. M. J. Crawford, who has for four teiuis represented this district in the National and Confederate Congress. He is oa ell qualified, by study and talent, for tho po sition. Tried and Discharged. We recorded the fact tho other day that Wrn. Smith, tho oolored Baptist preacher of Butler, had boon arrested in Columbus by officer Wood on tho charge of having stolon fonrtoen nidus of up t »er leather from Wm. Hays of tho former place. He was released hero, returned to Butler of his own accord, whore he u us arrested by the sheriff of Butler couuty on the samo charge. He was required to give a bond of $25 before two justic -a.

We beg to assure tbe public that this was an over sight, uml while doing so we can heartily commend the splendid establishment of this gentleman, as it is one of whioh our citizens may well bo proud. Iu addition to his drug and chemical business, Doctor Brooks keeps constantly on haud tho finest aud purest liquors for family and medi cinal, purposes, aud the host cigars iu the city. We hope he will pardon our over sight. In tbe same issue we overlooked tbe card of Mr. J. A. L Lee, of Upatoi, Mus cogee county. Ga. His stock of Alder ney cattle courts the attention of our farmers, as he offers two young bulls at a lower price than they can be bought for abroad, and bis bronze turkey tho b- st breed aro selling at the price of the or dinary varieties. About April 6th we propose to issue an edition of 10,000 copies, and we call on advertisers to prepareto avail themselves of this splendid opportunity. Wo issue onr large editions to advertise our own paper, but it would rejoice na to see our business men availing themselves of this enter prise and show that they aro np with the age, and that Columbus is inhabited by live men.

At the meeting of the Directors of tho Savannah and Memphis Railroad Com pany^ yesterday, in Opelika, nothing was done save the usual routine business. The office of Vice-President was creat ed, and Col. W. L. Salisbury, of Colum bus, was elected to that position. This ^adds great strength to the organization. Col. 8. was for a few mouths President of the Company, and did more railroad work given time, and oonstruoted more road, than any railroad officer iu the land. He whh earnestly requested to retain his post, but peremptorily resigned after he had finished the particular work he un dertook. From directors wo learn thcro is an immediate prospeot of obtaining Home eighteen more miles of iron, which will complete the road some sixty miles from Opelika, and lack only twenty-three miles of reaohing Childersburg, on the Selma, Rome & Dalton Railroad. Tbe prospects of this road, in which Columbus is so vitally interested, is most oheering. When completed to Corinth, it will traverse the richest mineral region in the world, and the Western terminus will bo looated at Columbus. Especially for ye Dancers of ye German. As a Geruiun is to be given to-morrow night, we publish the following neat lines for the benefit of tho ladies, thut they may not possibly mistake the love tokens and expressions of the gentlemen : THE HANDKERCHIEF GAME.
