Next Monday week is the time appoint
ed for tho mooting of Muscogee County

say they cannot attend to two Courts at

almost necessary.

BKATII ON THE KAIL I
Truffle Occurrence In Opcllku !
COL. B. BOYLE KILLED BY THE ATLANTA
AND MONTGOMERY TRAIN.
Ycstcrduy paseongors on tho afternoon
train from Opelika brought nows of a ter
rible accident which occurred in that city
about half-past ten o’clock. Later In tho
afternoon wo received the particulars by
telegraph.
It seems that Col. B. Boyle, Superinten
dent of tho East Alabama and Cincinnati
Railroad, had just gotten on board of the
passenger train bound from Montgomery
to Atlanta. He was passing from one of
tho passenger coaches to another. The
cars were a little way apart, and as he
stepped ho missed his footing and
FELL BETWEEN THEM.
The cars were moving, and soon his
body was terribly crushed, llis legs were
terribly mangled and his head severely
mashed. The cars were stopped as soon
as the alarm was given, but it was too
late. The body was taken out from the
wheels. Life was not then extinct. Tho
unfortunate man was Insensible. Medical
aid was summoned as soon as possible,
but all human efforts were vain. Colonel
Boyle was carried to tho hotel, where he
lingered until about twelve o’clock, when
deatli relieved his sufferings. He was a
citizen of Opelika and a railroad man of
considerable prominence. The tragic oc
currence caused considerable excitement
and is deeply deplored by all.
A PECVLIAR CAME.
TRIAL OF JOSEPH DICKERSON.
Our Superior Court was engaged almost
all day yesterday on the trial of a very
peculiar case—one exactly like It was nev
er tried in this county before.
It will be remembered that Joseph Dick
erson was arrested about eighteen months
ago on suspicion that he intended to take
the life of J. W. Webster, conductor on the
Western Road, under whom Dickerson was
at work. It was said that he had laid a
plan to have Webster assassinated on his
way home, and had engaged a negro to
strike him with a crow-bar. In order
to keep Webster from defending him
self, it was said that he took the caps off
of W’s pistol, and soon after this act he
was arrested, tho negro having told sev
eral parties that ho was engaged by Dick
erson to do the bloody deed. On these
grounds Dickerson was arrested. Bince
his arrest he has been out on bond.
The crime of which ho is accused is call
ed a misdemeanor, but unlike most of mis
demeanors, is punishable by confinement
in the penitentiary. The following is the
law on tho subject, as taken from the
Code, section 4,712:
“If any person shall attempt to commit
an offense prohibited by law, and in such
attempt shall do any act toward tho com
mission of such offense, but shall fail in
the perpetration thereof, or shall be pre
vented or intercepted from executing the
same, such person so offending shall be
indicted for a misdemeanor, and, on con
viction thereof, shall, in cases where no
provision is otherwise mado in this Code,
or by law, for the punishment of such at
tempt, be punished as follows:
“Ist. If tho offense attempted to be com
mitted be such as is punishable by law
with death, tin? person convicted of such
attempt shall be punished by imprison
ment and labor in the penitentiary for any
time not less than two years nor more
than seven years.”
Yesterday tho case was taken up and
partly disposed of.
Messrs. Bland ford A Garrard, Judge W.
F. Williams and Carey J. Thornton ap
peared for tho defense, and Messrs. Pear
body it Brannon, Thornton it Grimes and
the Solicitor-General for the State.
A jury was obtained with some difficul
ty. The prisoner objected to nine; the
State to eight, and nineteen were excluded
for “cause.”
The following jury was at last obtained:
T. A. Cantrell, John Mehaffoy, P. J. Rig
gers, W. S. Re Wolf, W. C. Bond, A. Kirven,
R. E. Carnes, William Quinn, J. S. Aoee,
Emmett Cody, J. B. Ivey, Aaron Land*.
Mr. Jas. Webster, George Harper, col'd,
andJ.L. Whitsitt were examined for the
State, when tho hour for adjournment
arrived. Tho defense lias several strong
witnesses, who will be Introduced this
morning, and whoso testimony, it is
thoght, will havo great weight in tin
ease. The State has four or live more wit-
nesses.
The witnesses,and jurors were permit
ted to go to their regular avocations after
being instructed not to talk to anybody
about tho case. It will be taken up again
this morning at 9 o’clock and will occupy
the whole day.
Sovoralable speeches will probably lx)
made this afternoon.
THOMAS Ml'AlllKt.Vs KO\l>.
MOTION TO STENGTHEN JT REFUSED.
Yesterday Gen. 11. L. Benning, on the
part of the prosecution of the two Cashes
and Thomas McEachren, for the killing of
Col. O. S. Holland, moved before Judge
Johnson to have the bond of the latter
strengthened. At present it is only SISOO,
anti it was argued that since the convic
tion of W. L. Cash it was necessary to
strengthen it. Gen. Benning and Solicitor
Llttlo made able arguments in favor of
strengthening the bond, and contended
that the present one would not insure the
prisoner’s coming to trial.
John Peabody, Esq., and Col. B. A. Thorn
ton replied, on tho part of the defense, that
the bond was amply large; that the pris
oner was a poor man and not able to give
as largo a bond as one in better circum
stances.
Judge Johnson decided against the mo
tion to strengthen the bond. He said the
object of a bond was to bring men to trial,
not to oppress them. Tho present bond
was good and, in his opinion, amply large.
He saw no necessity for requiring the
prisoner to give a larger bond, and decid
ed that it was not necessary.
Edward Cash, tho other party accused,
is on a bond of SIOOO. We suppose no mo
tion will be made to strengthen this.

! CLOTH INO MANUFACTORY -EMPLOYMENT
FOR THE POOR.
It is known to many of our citizens that
Mr. G. J. Peacock formerly of tho tlrrn of
Peacock A Bwift of this city, is engaged
in an enterprise for the establishment of
a largo clothing manufactory In this city.
It is supposed ho Is at the head of a large
stock company. Ho is now traveling
throughout Goorgiu and tho neighboring
States and makjng arrangements for the
sale of his goods. Tho cloth manufactur
ed by the Eagle and Phenix mills will be
principally used. The goods manufactur
ed will be peculiarly adapted to the South
ern trade and wilt be nmdo in a superior
stylo to tho ordinary manufacture of
Southern houses.
Mr. Peacock writ**9 most encouraging
letters of tho prospects for success. There
will bo no difficulty in flndfng a quick sale
for large quautltlos of this ready-made
clothing. It can bo manufactured very
cheap and furnished to our market at
much lower rates than those now paid for
an inferior article.
Tho mills will bo put in operation this
fall and will give employment to a large
number of poor women who are anxious
for some honest occupation. If the cloth
ing finds the sale that is expect**! tho
number of operatives employed will be
large.
This is the first enterprise of the kind
ever undertaken in Georgia. There is no
reason why it should not succeed. It wiji
prove that the spirit of enterprise is not
dead in Columbus, and while our magnifi
cent factories weave tho cloth, we will
have tho means of immediately Converting
it Into neat and durable clothing, and thus
afford our people home made wearing ap
parel durable, cheap, and well made. The
Macon! Telegraph d* Menaenger seems to
feel quite an interest in the success |of the
project. It gives tho following favorable
notice of it:
Tho “jQolumbus Clothing Manufactory
Company” has lately boen organized un
der the direction of Sir. G. J. Peacock, of
that city, for the manufacture and sale of
ready-made clothing adapted to tho
Southern market. It will begin with the
employment of about seventy-live hands,
mostly seamstresses, of course, under the
superintendence of experienced cutters
and makers, and consuming principally,
the goods of the Eagle Manufacturing
Company of Columbus. Tho company
will oe represented in the Macon market
by Messrs. Winship A. Callaway, and we
have no doubt that, in this class of cloth
ing, they will furnish an article more du
rable than the usual run of such goods
made abroad. When their working force
becomes thoroughly organized and expe
rienced, they may venture with greater
safety upon finer goods,
We are glad to chronljl • this movement
as the beginning of what should I><3 a series
of business understandings in all our cities
and towns, having, as one great object,
the profitable employment of many of our
people who now seem to bo without a field
for remunerative industry, however de
sirous they may be to find one, or however
necessitous may be their condition. The
loss of their labor is alike a misfortune to
themselves and to the community in which
they reside. Manufactories of all kinds
which furnish employment to numerous
people, are great conservators of public
morals and prosperity, and in connection
with agriculture form the most solid basis
of a common wealth. We bid this enter
prise God speed.
I*li‘:innt Kupprlse.
Thursday night Mr. C. D. Wall, Master
Machinist of the Southwestern Railroad
shops, was most pleasantly surprised by
some of his numerous friends.
While sitting quietly at home after tea,
they came in upon him. As soon as the
informal meeting was complete, Mr. Wall
was presented with an elegant gold-head
ed cane, the gift of the operatives. Mr.
John King made a neat little speech of
presentation and expressed the high re
gard felt by all the operatives for Mr.
Wall. That gentleman replied and ex
pressed his gratitude for the expression of
friendship and confidence.
After this there was a generai festivity.
Wine, ice cream, cake, and other luxuries
were provided in abundance, and until the
“wee hours” of morning the jollification
was unabated.
Mr. Wall is s<x>n to sever his connection
with the Southwestern shops, and will
take a position of a similar character to
tho one he now fills, in Montgomery. He
is held in high esteem by nil who know
him. His place will be hard to fill, and he
will be missed alike by his employers and
his fellow operatives.
Death.
Yesterday afternoon, at a quarter past
four o’clock, Mrs. E. A. Kennedy, of this
city, died at her residence. She had been
sick a week from rheumatism, which at
tacked her heart and provtxl fatal.
She was the mother-in-law of Mr. T. J.
Appleyord, of the J tfnquircr office. She was
forty-live years of age, and had been a
resident of Columbus for twenty-two
years, having moved here from Athens.
She leaves a husband and several children
to mourn iier loss.
Sunday-School Mukk liming.
Yesterday Rev. C. A. Kendrick, pastor of
tlm First Baptist Church of this city, left

Talbatton, where he goes to attend a grand
mass meeting of the Baptist Sunday

That denomination is very strong in

WONDERFUL DIFFERENCES.
It is strango what n difference in the
temperature there is in different stores
and buildings in this city. The records of
tho thermometer kept in each differ as
widely as If tho localities were hundreds
of miles apart. In the Georgia Home
Building, one of the coolest In the city, the
mercury scarcely ever rises above 90 deg.
At the Post Office, which is also a cool
place, 98 deg. is tho highest ever reached.
There are several places In the city whore
the heat is much greater than at either of
these joints. For instance, tho highest
[M)int reached by tho thermometer at the
Post Office, Thursday, was 91 deg.; while
at a warehouse in the city tho mercury
went up to 99 deg. in the shade, or one de
gree above blood boat. A few days since
a thermometer was taken from a store on
Broad street, which is unusually cool and
pleasant, and when carried to a store only
threo doors below, the mercury rose six
degrees in twenty minutes. In some of
tho stores adjoining each other the tem
perature varies as much as three degrees.
It would be extremely difficult to ascertain
what tho mean temperature of the city is
at any given time. No two thermometers
indicate tho same degree of heat. The
principal cause for the great heat in some
stores is that they are only one-story high
and covered with tin roofs. In some of
them the heat is intense. The sun shines
on the roof all day; by 12 o’clock it gets
thoroughly heated, and the effect on the
atmosphere below is very marked. Those
stores near the corners of Broad street are
cooler than those In the centre of the
block. Those that are in the first story of
two and three-story buildings are always
cooler than those in single story buildings.
Wonderful tales are related of the in
tense heat at two or three points in the
city. It is said a candle once actually
melted ut a warehouse, where the heat
was very great* At another point, the
thermometer once stood at 110 deg. In the
shade-twelve degrees above blood heat
ami it must have boon terrible. The re
cords of temperature kept the present
year has indicated a greater degree of
heat than is usual for this season. August
can not lie much better.
The Opera Houso is, fortunately, one of
the coolest and best ventilated in the Stab*.
Public assemblages and entertainments
in the hottest weather can be given there,
and the audience does not feel that sense
of closeness and suffocation so usual in
public hails in warm weather.
Miu'iitetlc X
A negro who lives a few miles over in
Alabama yesterday brought into the city
some fine hams of his own raising and
cure and sold them to Mr. Richard Deig
nan. Last year he brought in a quantity
of lard. He says he has now on hand
almost a tierce of rice, which he will soon
bring to market.
It is a rare thing to hoc a negro who
makes enough for his own support; and
one who makes enough, and has a consid
erable quantity left over to sell, is a pro
digy. Such negroes are good citizens, and
enjoy the respect of all good people. If
the hundreds of darkies who loaf around
street corners “waiting for a job,” and
who turn up their noses at farm work,
would imitate so laudable an example,
there would be more prosperity and hon
esty among our colored people. To them
we commend this worthy negro, and urge
t hem immediately to go and do likewise.
Malarial
The malarial belts manufactured by
Love A Wilson, of Atlanta, have not been
long in the market, but have already
found a largo sale. Testimonials of their
wonderful efficacy are daily received by
the manufacturers. The belts can be worn
without the slightest inconvenience*—
They have been thoroughly tried in dis
tricts where chills, intermittent fevers and
other similar diseases were common and
affected all. For these ills, the belts are
said to boa sure preventative. In fact
they have been tried in the presence of
all sorts of malaria, and certificates of
their excellence have been furnished by
various reliable parties.
Several gentlemen in Houston county
have been cured by them of malarial af
fections, which had resisted all other treat
ment.
Dr. F. L. Brooks has just received a
large lot of these belts and is already find
ing a largo sale for them.

is thus afforded a great deal of the fancy
trade of East Alabama.

Returned.
Several parties who attended the com
mencement exercises of Andrew Female
College, at Cuthbert, returned to the city
yesterday. They report that the exercises
were pleasant and well attended.
Miss Van Horn, of Chattahoochee coun
ty, was one of the honored graduates.
The college is reported to be in a flour
ishing condition. President Flewellen is
exerting all his powers for its success.
Tho amount of local patronage bestowed
is considerable. Tho surrounding country
also does much to help the college. The
institution deserves success. The people
of Cuthbert feel a very strong interest in
its welfare, and are willing to do much
for it.

Why Will You Flue Away i
WITHOUT A PARALLEL.
The demand for Dr. J. Bradfield’s Fe
male Regulator is beyond precedent in
the annals of popular remedies. Orders
come in so thick and fast that the Propri
etor has, heretofore been unable to 1111
them all. He is happy to state that ar
rangements are now complete by which
he is prepared to manufacture Female
Regulator on a scale equal to the emer
gency, and the public may feel assured
that their wants may now be supplied.
Physicians of high repute are using this
great remedy, in daily practice, all over
Georgia. Hereafter no woman need suf
fer from suppressed, suspended or irreg
ular menstrual >n. This valuable medi
cine is prepared by L. H. Brad field, Drug
gist, Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per
bottle by druggists throughout America.
HEARTY. BLOOMING WIDOW.
Marietta, Ga., March i), 1970.
Messrs. Ilradfuld it* Cos.:
Gentlemen—You will please ship us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
better satisfaction than any article we
sell. We have been selling it since 1808,
and witnessed many remarkable cures by
it. Among others, there was a lady
friend of ours who was sallow and sickly
until she was twenty-six years old, when
she was married. Her husband lived two
years and died. She continued in bad
health; in fact, she has never been what
a woman ought to be. A few months
after the death of her husband she saw
your advertisement, and came to our
store and bought a bottle of your Regula
tor from us, and took it according to di
rections. It has cured her sound and
well, brought her regular monthly peri
ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom
ing widow—with the use of but’two bot
tles of vour Regulator, costing her only
three dollars, when she had tried several
physicians and spent a great deal of
money without anv benefit. Wishing you
great success with your valuable reme
dies, we are, respectfully yours, etc.,
W. Root A Sons.

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY POE 1875.
Tho approach of the Presidential election gives
unusual importance to the events nnd develop
ments of 1875. We shall endeavor to describe
them fully, faithfully and fearlessly.
THE WEEKLY SUN has now attained a circula
tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers
are found in every State and Territory, and its
quality is well known to the public. We shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old
standard, but to improve and add to its variety
and power.
THE WEEKLY SUN will cvutiuue to be a thor
ough newspaper. All tlio id .*.*:> of the day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and always, we
trust, treated in a clear, interesting and instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim to make the Weekly Sun the best
family newspaper in the world. It will be full of
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print nothing to offend the moat
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain the most interesting stories and ro
mances of the day, carefully selected and legibly
printed.
The Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature in the Weekly Sun, and its articles Will
always be found fresh and useful to the farmer.
The number of men independent in politics is
increasing, and tho Weekly Sun is their paper
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, and for the
election of the best men. It exposes the corrup
tion that disgraces the country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The markets of every kind and the fashions
are regularly reported.
The price ef the WEEKLY BUN is one dollar a
year for a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six col
umns. As this barely pays the expenses of paper
and printing, we are not able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend Its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in order to have the Weekly Sun at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar aud twenty
cents will get the paper, postpaid for one year
We have no traveling agents.
THE WEEKLY SUN—Eight pages, 56 c
• Only $1.20 a year, postage prepaid. No di
j from this rate.
* THE DAILY SUN—A large four-page newspaper
|of twenty-eight columns. Daily circulation over
i 120,000. All the news for 2 eeuts. Subscription,
: postage prepaid, 55 cents a mouth, or $6.50 a
; year. To clubs of 10 or over, a discount of 20
