TRI-WEEKLY TIMES Columbuh .< THURSDAY™ AUGUST 10.187(1. |CONTINUED FROM 3D FAOE.I aense of justice, members of the Legis lature do not voluntarily grant to me the same chance for my legal rights, that was so unanimously granted to the while man and the negro, in the Act that was passed the same day, after rejecting my Bill —or if, after members shall have seen the good and profitable extra work I will have done for the State at the present time—the Legislature does not voluntarily refer my case to the Courts, with the under standing (which was not required of the white man and the negro in the Act above alluded to), that I am to pay all costs, including the State Attorney’s fees. In case the verdict of the Courts of the State be not in my favor, 1 will let the matter stand as it now stands until I again get out of office—esjiecially as the State is amply able to pay the interest on her Just Debts. Having thus ‘cleared the deck, my Fellow-Citizens, MY PRESENT FIGHT, therefore, is alone, against ‘Combi nations'for office, and against ‘Tres passers on our State Treasury,’ and, fur Economy, and Reform in the Comptroller General s Office.’ And should I be successful, and shall be ‘put back’ into Comptroller’s Office, I snail Indeed be a much disappointed man if I don’t ‘ojien the eyes of you all ‘a little more, at least, in relation to the ‘errors’ or the ‘iniquities’ of the ‘past and present,' committed within the last eight years—and which I think the books and papers in Comp troller's Office will show.

Yesterday at liulf-past 12 o’clock, a seri ous cutting scrape occurred at the Eagle Factory. There seeinod to have been some misunderstanding between a couplo of young men, Messrs' Rob Holland and Richard Rrantley. When the dinner hour arrived thoy had an altercation, which re sulted In the cutting of Rob Holland In the nock, breast and back. His wounds are very bail ones. He was bleeding In ternally whon we lost heard from him. It was said by our Informant that, a young man named Roes was engaged In thought on Rrantley'B side. We did nnt learn the origin of the difficulty. Holland ltvos in the city and Rrantley in Girard. A Bad Place. The crossing at the Western Depot, over which the Llnwood people pass is not safe, and some steps should bo taken to havo It made secure. The south end of the crossing opens on big ditch, and is to tally unprotected. A horse could easily shy off. The placo could be mado sccuro at a ti lffing cost by putting up a railing botweon the tracks, and on a line with the ditch. Tills should be dono by the Rail road or the oounty. The Railroad we be lieve obligated itsoir to keep the place in order, and if not tho county should do it. We make this notioo ait tho request of several citizens who are compelled to pass over It every day. Fresh Eousat Markham's. The Event of tlie Season. The event of tho season In tho picnic line was the moonlight picnic given at the terminus of the North A South Railroad, under tho auspices of the Rosement So cial Club. The club with their invited guests left the city last afternoon at 6 o’clock on a special train. Tho party numbered about fifty couples, all bent upon having a pleas ant time. They took with them a st ring bond, and dancing must havo been the or der of the night. Nothing can be more enjoyable than an occasion of this kind. Love and joy are obliged to reign supremo under a moon light canopy covering beautiful women and handsome men. The president, Mr. Holstead, had every detail arranged for a happy time. We are indebted for a kind Invitation and regret our inability to have been pres ent. We know we would have enjoyed the picnic. Reunion*. Rev. O. L.

City Taxes, Bond*, Sir,. Tho cry comes from all classos of our oitlzens of their Inability to pay their taxes. While the taxes are high, the fail ure to meet them arises not altogether from the high rate of taxation, but from the utter Inability of many of oar people to raise money at this lime. This Is not alone tho case with tho poor man, who lives in his own humble home, but It pre vails with men who havo and own a con siderable amount of real estate. Our city Council would do an act of great justice to the public of whom we speak If they could manage to get money without pres sing them. While ou this subject we of fer for the consideration of Council the following suggestion. Columbus owes a large bond debt. The holders of these bonds generally bought them for 65 or 70 cents on the dollar. Would it be asking too much for Council to ask the bondholders to reduce the rate of Interest ws are paying. Col. Wail ley suggested to the Mobile A Girard Railroad the propriety of asking her bondholders to reduce tho interest, and that, too, In the faco of tho fact that the Central Railroad, of whicli ho is Pres ident, is a largo holder, and took them dollar for dollar. lie did this be cause he thought It just and could bo accomplished. Tho stockholders acted upon hlB advice, and appointed a com mittee to go to Savannah and try and ef fect the arrangement. Columbus might accomplish the same. At any rate there will be no harm done. Another suggestion ; In order that the city may accommodate the tax payers by not pressing them for taxes, would it not boa good idea for the city to issue thirty thousand dollars worth of certificates, which thoy could pay out as greenbacks, and redeem in the payment of taxes. It would give the city money to pay its officers and running expenses, and create a local currency that would relieve, to a certain extent, the scarcity of money in circulation. Everybody in Columbus would take these bills as money, and tho city would pay them out as such. Our merchants and tax-payors could use them In paying their taxes. * A Suggestion to the City Council. The last Legislature of Georgia at the Instance of the city council, repoaled the law making it necessary to elect a Deputy Marshal. Therefore hereafter there will be no Deputy Marshal, and the city will bo compelled to have some .one in charge of tho city carts and tho city works. Wo think it would be a good idea for tlie council to create an office called “Superintendent of Public Works and Ruildings,” and select as the incumbent a man of ability, at a small salary, whoso business should be to look after the drainage of tho city, the construction of sowers, bridges, Ac.; and to seo that tho public property is not abused. In this way we would have a re sponsible man in charge of tho working affairs of the city. Ho could employ an overseer for the hands for just such times as the hands are at work, and thus econo mize to a great extent. If we always had as competent a chair man of tho Street Committee as we now havo, there would be no need of creating theollice; but unless we have, there should bo someone to look after tho public prop erty, to see that tho streets are all kept in order, and to protect tho city’s Interest In tho commons. The commons are being disligurod and cut up by parties hauling dirt from them, and tho timber in some portion Is being cut off. It is asking too much of the chairman of the Street Goin mltteo to take all of his time in looking af ter those matters. Theatrical. Our city will bo visited the coming fall and wiuter by the best theatrical travel ing companies. Already Templeton, Fifth Avenue Combination Company, Cal Wagner, and Harry Robison have on gaged the Opera House, while a number of other troupes have written to Mr. Springer to engage dates, and make en quiries. Tlie season will open on the 25th of September with Jno. Templeton's fine Company. Ho writes that ho lias engaged the best of thoatrloal talent. Of course the little px-odigy May-tho-Fay, will bo with him. First Hale ot New Cotton. The first bale of now cotton reeelvod at Columbus arrived yesterday, consigned to Watt A Walker. Tho bale was shipped by Mr. J. W. F Lowery of Dawson, Ga. It was raised In Calhoun county. It ought to have been hero on tho 4th Inst., but was delayed In the transportation until yostorday. It was not sold at any fancy price, owing to tho faot that It did not arrive extraordina rily early, or even ns early as a bale last season. Personal. Col. J. M. Russell returned yesterday from a trip to South Carolina. Col. Musttan arrived yesterday from his springs. He has a good crowd of nice peo ple, and as lino water as is in the State. Mr. R. C. Pope has been appointed gen eral agent for the Wlioelor A JVtlson Sew ing Machine Company with headquarters at Columbus. Tho company could not have selected a more competent gentleman than Mr. I’ope to manage Its affairs. Democratic Majority In Cluutilters County. LaFayette, Ada., August 9, 1876.

Now for somo Irrepressible Radical to yell out conspiracy, because Russell and Chambers voted the same majority. —0 ♦ O Magistrate's Court. Justice Shivers was busy yesterday is suing warrants for tlie arrest of violators of tho law. At the instance of Alonzo Paine, a negro Indian doctor, a warrant was issued against Joe Schnell for assault upon him. Joe was put under a bond of $59 to appear to-day for his trial. Sohuell, didn’t like the way Alonzo had treated him, so he forthwith took out a warrant against Alonza Paine for carry ing concealed weapons. Not being ready for trial, Paine was placed under a hun dred dollar bond to appear before Justioe Shivers this morning to answer the charge. Judge Shivers also issued a warrant at the instant of Mr. Wm. McAlvey for the arrest of Jim Radcliff, oharged with steal ing SSO worth of jewelry and clothing from him In Chattahoochee county. He was arrested by officer Robarts, and turned over to an officer from Chattahoo chee county to be taken there for trial.

Tlie Temple ill Jerusalem It Is probably no exaggeration to say that more has been written regarding the Temple at Jerusalem than In respect to any other building In the known world, and, unfortunately, it may bo added, more that is wild and untenable. This lost pe culiarity arises from several causes. First, because all tho earlier restorers wore entirely Ignorant of tho ground on which the Temple stood, and of the local circumstances thatgovernod Its construc tion. It was not, indeod, till tho spot was surveyed by the late Mr. Catherwoop, in 1844, and his plan published on a sufficient soaloin 1862, that restorers had such a map of the ground as would enable them to adjust their measurements to the local ity with anything like certainty. Though that plan was wonderfully perfect consid ering the circumstances under which it was made, it has since been superceded by that made under the direction of Capt. (now major) Wilson, R. E., in 1864-5, which loaves nothing to be desired in this re spect. It can be depended upon almost to inches, and has been engraved on a scale sufficiently large for all architectural purposes. A second causo of tho wildorness of tho res toration hitherto attempted Is that the Temple of Jerusalem was unique. Not only had the Jews this one temple, but, so far as we know, it was entirely of their own Invention, and utterly unlike the tem ples of any of the nations around them. It certainly, at all events, was quite unlike tho tomples of the Egyptians or Greeks. It may havo had affinities with those of the Babylonians or Assyrians; but notwithstanding all that has been done of late years, we know so very little of what tho temples of Mesopotamia wore that these hardly help us even at this day, and the assumpt ion that t his might be so was of no use whatever toearly restorers, Having thus no analogies to guide them, anil as it is literally and absolutely true that not one stone remains on another of the temple so properly called, it is not to be wondered at that early restorers failed to roaiize the truth and indulged in fan cies which wore utterly untenable. In nine cases out of teu their object was to produce a building which would be worthy of Solomon, in all his glory, rather than a sober poduetlon of the very moderate building described in the Bible.—Cbntem porary Review.

But when he came home that night and learned that the new wait ress had left during tho day for Califor nia, arid that the only person who could be found to tako her place was a woman 90 years old, with two sets of false teeth and a won on her chin, he couldn’t help wondering. An Heiress to 18 r.0,400,<•<• Miss Melissa Elder was a poor clerk in a hotel dining-room in Atch ison, Kansas, and here is the account from a journal of that city of her wonderful luck; A short time ago Melissa Elder fell heir to £112,000,000 sterling, amount ing to about $500,000,000. It seems that her great-great grandfather, on her mother’s side, who was a Roman Senator, had all his property, which consisted of a vast amount, of real es tate iu and around the city of Rome, confiscated to the Roman Empire on account of his being concerned with Marc Anthony in the terrible assault on the body of Ciesar. Ciesar'a wife was also accused at the same time, but Marc Anthony afterwards said she was above suspicion, and nothing was done iu the matter. All the property of Melissa’s great groat grandfather, however, was confiscated upon tho tes timony of a detective. The detective afterwards was taken with frenzied remorse and wrote a full confession, moved to Pompeii and was living iu that ill fated town when the sudden catastrophe winch befell it cut him down in the prime of life. During the recent discoveries among the ruins of Pompeii this confession was discovered, aud Miss Elder’s great great-grandfather was fully vindica ted. A Chicago lawyer, who, was traveling through Europe, heard of the circumstance, aud by aid of de tective, found in the person of Melis sa Elder tho only surviving heir of her lamented great-great-grandfa ther. The lawyer has taken the pros ecution of the case on a contingent fee, ami Malissa leaves for Rome to take possession of that down. Of course we tender our congratulations; $500,000,000 does not grow on bushes. The Montenegrins.—The sort, of people that the inhabitants of Mon tenegro are is coming to be known, now that eveuts have taken on their recent shape. A Gorman latter from among them says they are very super stitious. “Thunder is believed to arise from the fact of St. Peter play ing at nine pins, while lightning is regarded as the reflex of the sword with which Saint Elias combats the devil,” from which it appears how their “Christianity” expresses itself. When there is a fire to be extinguish ed people call out, “wine! wine!” instead of “water!” believing as they do that by uttering the latter word the genius of Eire would feel insult ed. Life is not secure to any one. But the chief glory of the Montene grins is to answer in large figures to the salutation: "How tpanv Turks’ heads has thou cut off?” The men kiss each other’s faces on meeting, but. the most deferential salute is to kiss his stomach. The doctors of the people are uneducated, and they prac tice by oral tradition only. A party of German physicians is now making a study of the country, while caring for the wounded, and through them come interesting accounts of what is the real condition of the Montene grins.
