of socks, some hosoiry, sardiuos, pickled
oysters, Ac., and Mr. Patrick's account

confident white peoplo did tho robbery.
Ou tho night of January 18th, the store
was brokeu open and robbed of four bot
tles of whiskey. No one was sleeping in

All tho bridges are in perfect order from

Near Shorters, above Montgomery,
the track was washed up and some little

.•I Charged Murderer Arretted.
Captain Cash arrested, yesterday, T. A.
Gray, who is accused of the murder of
Hays, formerly of Columbus, in Fort Val
ley, some time since. Over a week ago
he and others escaped from tho jail at
l’orry, Houston county. Captain Cash
and others of our police force nabbed
him yesterday, uud tho first named car
ried him to Fort Valley ou the afternoon
train. Our polico forco is very vigilant,
and few offenders escape through this
place.
Tho train ou which Captain Cash and
oflicor John Brady embarked with their
prisoner, procue led no further than Gen
eva, where the intelligence of a break
ahead, forced a return to the city. Gray
is now lodged iu jail in Columbus. He
was arrested yesterday morning by Cap-
tain Cash and officer Johu Brady, about
a quarter of a mile from Smith's Station,
in Alabama lie swore his name was
Jones,but this was too tbiu. Tuesday night
he slept in tbo general passenger dep ot.
His attempt to escape was made verv
stupidly. He killed his man in Fort

—Tho floor of the lower city bridge is '

—The river fell rapidly yesterday morn

—Tho river yesterday at its widest
point at Columbus was G20 feet, less than
an eighth of a mile.
—Columbus is tryiug to find a man who
doesn't belong to a clnb, lodge, grange,

—If you are oonrtiug a girl, stick to
her, no matter how large her father's feet

—The fees for marriage notices should
bo as high as the ecstacy and liberality of
the bridegroom may prompt.
—Tho Grangers aro beginning to dig
np the gravel of deceased brothers, thus
preventing extortion on the part of
‘‘middle-men," such as sextons.
—Pure ifijpudenoe : Two men in a
baggy appeared in front of the office
yesterday, and yelled out to send them a
paper. As one oould more readily have
come in, than the business men could
havo gone to them, especially as all hands
were busy at the time, no atteutiou was
paid to their request. If only one per
son hud boon in the buggy, or ladies had
occupied it, the case would have been
different, and they would huvo boon
cheerfully waited on. Whether the pair
got a paper or not, nobody knows nnd
nobody cares.
—Very few wagons were on tho streets
yesterday. People havo not yot ceased
talking about the rains and their conse
quences. The damages are much less
than at first supposed.
— Yestorday was clear and again cloudy
at intervals. More rain is feared.
—Celebrities have a weakness for favo

About the Height of the Itlecr.
A gentleman thoroughly posted on this
and ovory other subject which excites tho
attention of thinking men has furnished
us with this :
Tho remark has been frequently made
in the Iasi two dsys, that during froshets
now, tho river can't riso as high as it did
iu 1841, or what is known as tho “Harri
son freshet,'' because tbo rivor banks iu
front of the city are much washed away
siuoe then, and tho space for tho
flow of the water is much wider. We
think this is a mistake, as tho last twnnty
or thirty years show but little washing
away of tbo bluff's below tho Mobile and
Girard Railroad, or cnlnrgemont of the
space through which tho water passes
there. Tho result is that the flow of the
water is checked by tho narrow passage
for it below, and is ponded up opposite
the oity. The distance ftoiu bunk to
bank immediately in front of tho oity has
alwnys boon greater than just below,
benoe wo think the river can riso as high
as it ever did, if an much rniu falls, less
the small additional space between the
bluffs below.
Appearance of the It leer.
The river, though several feet lower
than on tho previous overling, was still
vory full yesterday. It was noticed as a
uingulur fact that little drift wood was
floating on tbo stream. This is account
ed for by tho fact that most of the low
lauds ahovo hero are being cultivated,
aiul that the louse growth of the forests
had previously boon swept away.
A fuuny sight is ovinoed on the Ala
bama shore. At tbo point of luud iu
Girard, at the point where tho creek
flows into tho river, appears a dilapidated
house, formerly one of tho most notori
ous iu this section. The shod once at
tached to tho dwelling has fallen iuto tho
water. Further up tho creek, about half
tho roof of e little cuddy shows itself
above the waters. Nearly opposite tbo
Fontaine wRrehou»o ia an unpaiuted one-
story house, tho porch of which hangs
unsupported over the river brink. It is
useless to add the peoplo left that house
several days since.
William Guest—assault and battery.
Found guilty of assault, and fined $25
and costa.
Joseph Greon, colored—simple larceny.
Flea of guilty, and sentenced to chain
gang for eleven months.
The following were nol. pros’d :
Thomas Blackwell—assanlt and battery;
Lucinda Borum—assault and battery ;
Inham Lewis—assault aud battery.
C'onrt adjourned to !) a. m. to-day, when
the criminal docket will be resumed.
Tho first case on docket this morning
is that of George Cokeson, charged with
larceny from the house.
tlirl Unity Left on a Minister's Porch.
Last night when Presiding Elder Mc-
Gehea returned from the Methodist
church prayer meeting with his family, he
found ou hiB front porch a girl baby,
which had been left there .during his
absence. The ohild seemed to be
about two weeks old, and was
dressed iu very common clothing, and
wrapped iu a rough blanket. It is said to
bo quite handsome.
Mr. McGehee sent for policemen,
and Deputy Marshal Robinson aud
Oflicor Josh Roper arrived, and taking
tho child from tho porch, carried it away.
Mr. James F. Floyd kindly consented to
oaro for the abandoned waif for the
night.
Whero the child came from canuot be
coujoctnrod. The Presiding Elder bus
been in Columbus ouly a few months,
and it cannot be expected that ho or his
church should care for evory child an
inhuman mother uiay choose to desert.
John E. Owens.
The following dispulch, dated Mont
gomery, 18th, from Theodore Hamilton,
manager of John E. Owens' troupo, was
received by Mr. F. J. Springer yesterday:
“Owens is detaiued ut Greenville by the
floods, and won't get to us for some days
yet. Can’t got to you."
Tho dispatch means that ho cannot fill
his engagement here to-uight. We pre
sume he will be hero some evoniug next
week. We hope so, at least.
I light Sort of Officers.
Monday night wheu tho river was rising
so rapidly, and fears for tho safety of the
structures were felt, officers reported sev
eral largo logs had lodged on the wooden
piers, built ou tho brick ones, of tho low
er bridge. Mayor Cleghorn at once pro-
ceded to tho spot, procured laborers, ob
tained, on application, the ropes aud oth
er appliances of Hook aud Ladder Com
pany, and tuking up some planks in the
centre of tho bridge, saw that the logs
woro removed. It required several houm
to do (he work, as tho hooks, owing to
the bobbing motion, refused to catch bold
of tbo logs. Filially, exertion and renew
ed efforts accomplished tho task. The
Mayor remained thero until 2:30 o’clock
iu the morning, superintending the work.
This is the right wuy to do business. Had
those logs and loose tlo *ting timbers been
allowed to accumulate against the piers,
tho bridgo would have por forco boon
swept away.
