Read the proocotlings of this body, it
will bo B<xsn that a practical mode of re
lief lias been adopt**! and will soon go
into successful operation. The plan was
proposed by Dr. Flewellen, and was unan
imously adopted. There was considera
ble enthusiasm in the mooting, and those
present seemed to bo fully alive to the im
portance of their work.
There lias been enough talk about re
lieving tiie poor, and it is now time to be
gin active relief. Sympathy is a good
thing and does much to alleviate suffer
ing, but money is the most potent agent
we know of, and the Association is now
desirous of this kind of aid. It lias ar
ranged the plans of relief so that imposi
tion will bo impossible, and with the
help of our citizens it will accomplish
great good and be a source of blessings to
the suffering poor. Read the proceedings.

Col. H. J. Forenere.
We are reliably informal that this clever
gentleman, and superior railroad mana
ger, at present Superintendent of the
Alanta division of the Central Road, will
take charge, on the Ist proximo, as Gen’l
Superintendent of the Washington City,
Virginia, Midland and Great Southern
Road, with headquarters at Alexandria,
Va. Our citizens know Col. Foreacre well
and remember the sudden change from
daily accidents to no accident at all, which
marked his connection with the Western
Railroad. While expenses went down un
der his management, the revenue wont
up, and as we have said before, accidents
ceased. But the Western was only one of
his numerous positions which has given
him such an enviable reputation in his
profession. We are thoroughly ignorant
in regard to the pagj. management of the
Virginia Midland, but with our faith in
Col. F., we do not believe that it can have
been so good as to leave no room for im
provement under Ids administration. We
have often heard the men on the Western
Road speak of Col. Foreacre’s unceasing
watchfulness. More than one employee
lost his official head for relying upon the
midnight or early morning hour to pro
tect him in some neglect of duty. Unlike
some Superintendents, whoso dignity
I never allows them to leave their cushioned
chair and comfortable office, Col. Foreacre
was certain to pounce down on them, and
as the railroad boys call it, send them
home as passengers. The Virginia Mid
land road is an important one, extending
I southward from Washington via Lynch
-1 burg tofDanville, a distance of about 250
! miles, and offers a line held for Col. Forea
| ore’s splendid ability. As we understand
| it, the road is worked as a southern branch
iof the Baltimore fc Ohio, of which CoJ.
j Thos. R. Sharp Is Gen’l Superintendent.
Col. Sharp, though a Virginian, was long
cnpugli among us to give us an apprecia
tion of his talents, and the removal of
such citizens as Col. Foreacre and him
■ self Is a serious loss to our section. Buthav-
I ing gone, the best wishes of our communi
j ty accompany them, and we shall always
: claim the right to enjoy and chronicle
j their inevitable success.

Another fine audience greeted this gifted
lady at the Opera House last evening.
The programme was entirely changed,
but was fully as interesting, and the audi
ence was fully as well entertained as on
the previous evening.
The reading was begun with “Jephtha’s
Daughter,” one of the finest productions
of N. P. Willis’ pen. The piece has always
I appeared beautiful, but Miss Patterson’s
j splendid rendition of it bestowed a i**auty
we never saw before. She seems to have
acquired a fierfoet mastery of the difficul
ties of blank verso, and reads it with an
ease and power seldom equaled,
i Next came a selection from the iniinita
| bio “Pickwick Papers,” which related the
troubles of the poor hero in his adven
tures with trie thirty-four females of the
boarding school. Charles Dickons would
have been proud of his own production
had ho heard Miss Patterson redder so
finely the dignity of Pickwick, the mis
chief of Weller, and the scheming frolic of
Job Trotter. During the reading the au
dience was in a continued Utter, and when
the climax of the ridiculous was reached
u general laugh showed that the wit of
the author and the talent of the reader
were duly appreciated.
“Pyramus and Thlsbe,” by J. G. Saxe,
was next read, and wo could not help con
trasting the rendition which Miss Patter
son gave it with that which we once heard
from the author. Mr. Saxe may !>o able to
write poetry, but if ho wishes his produc
tions to take, he would do well to get this
lady to road them for him.
“ The High Tide,” by Jean Ingeiow, is a
peculiar poem, and an acquaintance with
the author's style is necessary for a com
plete appreciation of it. It was read witli
such force, however, that tiie effect upon
the audience was marked indeed.
The regular programme concluded with
another inimitable “Caudle Lecture.” Poor
Caudoo caught it this time for complain
ing that a button was off of a very essen
tial gurmeut. While listening to the re
cital of tins piece we could not decide
whether Miss Patterson excelled in the pa
thetic or humorous; aud at length reached
the wise conclusion that in each she was
superb. The evening’s entertainment
closed with a beautiful rendition of Father
Ryan's “Prayer of the South,” which was
recited by request. Tho approbation of
her hearers was expressed by applause
and quite a number of beautiful bouquets.
Wo are sorry that Miss Patterson will not
give another of her charming entertain
ments in our city.
Sho may rest assured that she will leave
iu this city many warm friends, and a
host, of admirers. We wish her much suc
cess wherever she goes, and predict that
she will shine illustrious upon the roll of
histrionic fame. She has a genius which
will give her a placo of honor in tiie pub
lic estimation, and a character which will
win the hearts of ail who know her. We
sincerely hope, that though sho may ro
oeivo the approbation of all who hear her,
that she will not forget Columbus and
(hose here who will watch her future with
jno ordinary interest, and who will ever
I hail her return with delight.

The Bhei-lir Office.
Judge Brooks, our efficient Ordinary,
has already had atxjut fifteen applications
from parties who are anxious to assume
tiie duties of tho {Sheriff's office until an
election can be held. The law requires
that if tiie Sheriff should be removed from
tho discharge of his official duties, by
death or otherwise, that the Coroner shall
act as Sheriff until an appointment can be
made by the Ordinary. Coroner S. O.
Lloyd is, therefore, ex officio Sheriff until
Judge Brooks appoints one pro tem. As
the members of the bar aro concerned in
the selection of a proper man to fill this
position, Judge Brooks has notified them
that if they will select some man whom
they think fit for tho office, and notify him
>f their choice he will act accordingly,
t his selection will probably be made to
luv. Judge Brooks intends to order an
election to be held on tho Bth of April. He
seems to be in favor of permitting the
Coroner to perform tho duties of tho office
until this election is hold. There will be
very little required of the officer, as the
Superior Court does not begin until May.
There will be some sales on the first Tues
day in April, but they can be postponed
very easily. We do not see the necessity
of any appointment. The election will
come off in twenty days, and until that
time Coroner Lloyd can perform the du
ties of tiie office to tho satisfaction of all.
There seems to be quite a squabble for the
appointment, and, judging from present
iddioations, the race for tho office will be
hot

the city. The rules and regulations gov
erning the Association are as follows:
Whereas, In ail large communities there
exists a necessity for some plan of relief
for the poor, either through employment,
or relief of present suffering; and whereas,
many are thus saved from dissipation and
crime, ami made to become useful and
honored citizens, it becomes the duty of
every good and intelligent citizen to aid by
his means and countenance, an Associa

of his fellow-being and the relief of dis

cliimh of our /poor who have no one to care i
for them.
Resolved, That it shall be the duty of!
members of the Association (when in their I
power) to secure employment for those}
who are without; and if such persons de- i
dine employment when tendered, that |
they lx* declared no longer entitled to the j
aid of the Association.

showing the amounts collected and sums
disbursed, and report the same monthly

j Sarah L. Adams, complaint for rent.
J Judge Pou being counsel for plaintiff in an

j ease involved the same debt, he was dis

the Clerk of this Court had the right to
! appoint a lawyer to preside as J udge, j
whereupon, Mr. Grimes stated that
j he once had occasion to examine the law, j
1 and, in his opinion, the act creating the
j County Court conferred no such power

Do You Want Health f
Why Will Ye Dif.?-- Death, or what is
worse, is the inevitable result of continued
suspension of the menstrual flow, it is a
condition which should not be trifled with.
Immediate relief is the only safeguard
against constitutional ruin. In all crises
uf suppression, suspension or other irreg
ularity of tho “courses,” Dr. J. Bradfiekrs
Female Regulator is the only sure reme
dy. It acts by giving tone to the nervous
centres, improving the blood, and determ
ining directly to the organs of menstrua
tion. It is a legitimate prescription, and
the most intelligent doctors use it. Pre
pared by J. 11. Fiiadlteld, druggist, Atlan
ta, Ga.. £1 50 per bottle, and sold by re
spectable druggists everywhere.

BrutljieUl J- Cos,, Atlanta, Ga. -DearSirs :
f t-ikc pleasure in stating that I have used
ter the last twenty years the medicine you

the diseases for which it is recommend**!.
I have Ixhui familiar with the preparation
both as a practitioner of medicine and in
domestic practice, and can honestly say
that 1 consider it a boon to suffering fe
males, and can but ho|>e that every lady
in our land, who may be suffering in any
way peculiar to their sex, may lx? able to
procure u bottle, and their sufferings may
not only be relieved,but t hat they may be
restored to health and strength.
With my kindest regards.
I am, respectfully,
