Damage by the Earthquake.—
It was severe in Canada. Tne Canada
papers continue to report damages. At
Baie St, Paul, seventeen houses w T ere
much damaged. At L. Eboulement the
church and ten houses w T ere injured and
two children killed.
One of General Terry’s “colored
female citizens” attempted to enter a rag
factory in Columbus the other day by
way of the chimney. Near the bottom
she became wedged, and found it impos
sible to move one way or another. Iler
cries attracted a crowd, and a portion of
the chimney had to be knocked down
before Dinah could be extricated.

It is said that the former mana
ger of the U. S. Hotel in Atlanta “broke
on the fair,” and that house now goes
into other hands. The National hotel
has reduced its rates to $3 per day.
Since the partial opening of the mam
moth Kimball House, we think the ho
tel business is rather over done in the
Gate City.
Some dissatisfied “knight” is growl
ing through the Atlanta Sun for anew trial
to decide the unfinished “tournament foolish
ness” which has already resulted in the death
of one man : and ealls upon Gen. Young, as
“boss” of the institution to have the matter
•ettled. We do not wonder at the “indiffer
ence” of Gen. Young in the premises; but
we do wonder that he ever permitted his
name used in connection with the tourna
ment, at the outset. Tournaments and base
ball will do for the children, but when it
comes to making them leading features at a
State fair, we consider the managers “ hard
run.”
The New Yorkers propose build
ing n grand crystal palace for a perma

the matter in charge possess a neat lit

purchased twenty-four acres, between
Third and fourth avenues just above
Torty-fifth street, at -a cost of one mill

Iron and glass are the materials of which
it is to be built.
s*2?* II- B. Stuart, an able lawyer,
now living at Arkadelphia, Arkansas—
wbe left Georgia some twenty years ago
—iaV late letter to the Monroe Witness,
say?:
“My advice to niv old friends in
Georgia has always been to come and
eec us out here toward “sunset” before
moving, and if a man is advanced in
life and well situated in Georgia, I would
never advise him to move to any other
country.*'
Politics.
Considerable interest is beginning to
i be manifested in the coming elections.
snd animatid (friendly) discussions are
) becoming common on the streets. It is
even rumored that a gentleman bearing
the character of a sound democrat has
consented to run for Representative of
this comity, against the nominee of the
Democratic Convention. It is also ru
mored that the Radicals have selected
their man Tor the race, and entertain
a >me hrc.pb of n
Wc have a host c>? ea ndidates for the
various county offices, and all seem
bouyed up with the hope of election
They are all clover, deserving men, and
we only regret there are not offices
enough to “go round."
W e would urge our friends of every
political shade to show their manho and
and discretion, by refraining from every
word or deed, during this canvass, cal
culated to mar the peace of our quiet
community, or engender ill feeling
amongst their neighbors.
In this great struggle to return to the
true principles of Democratic govern
ment. it behooves us, as one man. to stand
firm against that extreme facti n which
seeks to perpetuate its power by keeping
alive the spirit of agitati n and strife in
the land. A true democrat should be
willing to sacrifice personal feelings and
prejudices to the general good of the
country; and the man who is not willing
to do this—but prefers division, agita
tion and strife, opposes the true welfare
of himself and neighbors, and effectually
digs his own political grave.
Sale of the Mitchell Property
at Atlanta.
There were 41 lots sold fronting on
Pryor, Peachtree, and Alabama streets,
and Railroad Avenue, and the principal
purchasers were Judge O. A. Lochrane,
Joseph E. Brown and the Kimballs. E.
F. Blodgett, (Trustee) went $15,000 on
two lots—a very satisfactory showing
for State Road “grease and waste."
The total amount of the sale was
$211,438 50. Judge Brown bought
eight lots for which he paid $47,151 15 ;
Judge Lochrane four lots for which he
planked up $27,749, and the Kimballs
went in for seven lots to the tune of
$44,943. Before the sale , Judge Den
nis Ilammond read a notice to the crowd
warning them against purchasing, as
suits would be brought against them.
The Chief Justice .of the Supreme
Court —before whom the case must ul
timately go—didn’t seem to be scared
much, however. —Macon Tdejraph.
Foul Murder at Dawson.
Col. C T. Ames, proprietor of the
New Orleans Circus and Menagerie,
was shot and killed by a set of drunken
ruffians, while exhibiting in Dawson
Terrell county. We clip the following
from a statement given the papers by
Mr. Munroc, of the side-show :
‘(Mr. Munroe says that a man named
R. J. Russell approached the and >or of
the side show in an intoxicated state,
and asked the price of admittance. He
was told 25 cents. Russell then told
his wife and children six or eight in
number to go in and he would ply the
bill. V hen they had gone in lie asked
how much it was, when Munroe told
him 9 had passed in. Russell said
there were only four, and Munroe then
started to call the family back to satisfy
Russell he was mistaken. Whereupon
Russell got angry and struck the door
keeper a blow that knocked him nearly
down and against the canvas. Russell
then drew his pistol and thrust it in the
door-keeper's face and threaten and to
blow his brains cut. Munroe told him
ho did not intend to offend him, but
Russell began to cock his pht 1. when
Munroe dudged down and ran inside
the canvass.
Col. C. T. Ames, who was standing
near the ticket wagon, a few paces off,
saw the difficulty and walked up and
told Russell that was not the place to
get up a fuss, and draw his pistol where
there were so many women and children :
to be quiet and lie would make it all
right, Russell then turned upon C< 1.
Ames, and remarked that he would kill
him. too, if he interferred, and fired at
the Colonel. Mr. Boynton, an attache
of the circus, also spoke to Russell, and
as he did so, two brothers named Char
les and John Kelly, and known as dos
perate men, rushed up, and dr wing
their pistols, began to fire upon the
Colonel and Mr. Boynton. They re
treated and attempted to run under the
canvas, and in the act of so doing Col.
Ames received two shots—one slightly
wounding him in the thigh and the other,
striking him on the inside of the hip,
passed through into the bowels.
During this shooting a Mr. Daniel
Oxford, a brother-in-law of Bussell, was
accidentally shot through the heart,
while standing near with a little child
in his arms. He fell forward upon the
child and it was taken from under the
dead man. One of the shots also passed
through the canvas of the side show,
and wounded Madame Frew, mother of
the Albino children, in the thigh, but
not seriously.

Call for Bids to Lease State
Road.
Governor Bullock has issued his call
for pr p sals to lease the State Road.
We give.for the benefit of our readers
wh i may want a r.ffle at this big thing,
the concluding extract of his proclama
tion :
For the purpose of carrying out this
act. proposals will be received until and
including the 25th day of December
next, and must be addressed “to the Gov
ernor of the State of Georgia, at Atlan
ta." and marked on the wrapper, “Pro
p sals for the lease of the Western tml
Atlantic Railroad, in accordance with an
Act approved October 24. 1870." The
proposals must state in full the names
and residence of the parties uniting to
make pr p sition. the amount that each
of the parties therein named are worth
over and ab ve th ir dobts and li bili
ties. together with a full description of
the character < fi the security which will
be offered t * complete the bond.
The pr perty t- be leased is a single
track railroad n. hundred and thirty
eight miles in length, with J'ull and com
plete equipment of simps, dep its, turn
outs, sidelines, engines, ears, etc . etc.,
etc., now in successful operation between

Arms and Cartridges. —The manu
facturers of fixed ammunitinii and arms
in New York nd vicinity are unable to
manufacture metdile cartrdggs cm ugh
to supply the present and maud fn. m
abroad. One company is turning out
from 250.000 to 300.000 of those car
tridges daily, and are unable to fill their
contracts even with this r p : d pr duc
tien. The French govern oent wii n t
receive arms from contracting parties
unless each piece is supplied with at
least 400 rounds of fixed ammuniti on
which makes the demand here very
active. Some of the agents of Eastern
factories report their works running
night and day, and are still unable to
fill orders.
The following are the exact words of
Garabaldi’s orders of the day alluding
to America : “ President Grant might,
by lifting his finger, send Prim’s soldiers
in Cuba back to Madrid, but 1m allows
the murder of the entire p pubtion of
Cuba, who are a pirt of the Grout Be
public, to fling a w-rd f sympathy t<»

will soon make the old autocrat repent
of his having sought the butchery.

Rend what the Montgom ry city papers
that know th gentlemen, w :io are the tnana
g rs and incorporators o, t!.i- Association,
have to say as to their reliability and honesty:
(From (hr Daily Alalan a Sd:> Journal.)
The American people are strictly a people
ot fortune ; they like to take a dinner at a hitj
fort line fora untall sum of money. This scli> me
affords them this opportunity. The first
award an l the highest is $25,000. The low
est ns ten dollars. The price of on
ly fwu dollars. When was such an oj |»ortu-
IXty prcseiifed to make a ‘pile” on such a
mall investment ? The incorporators of the
Association are Julnu llomaus and Otto
•Soh rs. ,lr.. of New York, and J. G. Stokes
and ii. Gil cue, of Montgoijiery. For the
ben- tit of tlie public, we w ill state that the As
soc at ion is perlcctly solvent—the gentlemen
who compose it are of character and integri
ty, and w-; Wlirve they will see to it that tin*
pjftrjeer is lion- stly. and faithfully carried out.
