RAILROAD ENTERPRISE AND OFF,
OIAL COURTESY.

On Thursday last quite large number. OF
our citizens left the city on the Mobile Road
indeed, it required two large sleeping cars to
accommodate the party. All went we'll until
Mobile was reached, when, owing to the dis
placement of a switch, the train was delayed
three hours. Fortunately Mr.. George Mason,
the general passenger agent Of the road, hap.
pened to be in Mobile, and appre-
ciating the desire of the passengers
to proceed Immediately on their jour-
ney, he instantly telegraphed to
Mr.. G. Jordan, the general superintendent
Of the Mobile and Montgomery Railroad. at
Montgomery, to prepare special engine to
meet the train at that place, aud, if possible,
to run it through on time. This was done,
and the sleepers, instead of proceeding by the
regular route, we're taken by the short cut by
Calera and Rome to Dalton, making close
connection with the northward- bound train
The trip from Montgomery to Dalton
was made In the remarkable time of
sic hours. By this arrangement the
party were saved the great annoyance of
having to lie over whole day on the route.
1t may well be understood how grateful all
are to Messrs. Mason and Jordan for their
great courtesy, and whilst we record their
thanks for the kindness, we must add our
own appreciation of the energy and alacrity
shown by these gentlemen in laboring to
please their patrons, and in bringing about
such happy termination to what promised
10 be an unfortunate occurrence.

THE JEWISH WIDOWS AND ORPHANS,
HOME.

The annual school examination of tn
"Jewish Home took place Sunday, an,
was attended by many Of the patrons an
friends of the institution.
The examination passed of very creditably
exhibiting to what high degree of nenta
culture the pupils have been brought, reflect
ing great credit upon their teachers as we'll a.
themselves. The Rotations and translationi
OF the Hebrew classes under Mr.. Shoenberg
the worthy Superintendent, were excellent
$50 far as we were competent ofjudging) The
English branches under Miss Julia Hart
showed their knowledge of the differen,
studies they had pursued under that lady,
and how well they had mastered them.
The English Rotations attracted much at.
tention, and changes in the feelings of the
audience were evident when Miss Silverstein
recited (by requesD her /" touching appeal
for theft of loaf of bread" or Master Ell.
man described "Schneider's Barty." At the
close prizes were distributed to several oil
the children who had earned them for pro.
ficiency in their studies, good behavior, etc
during the year. These prizes were donated
by the directors and teachers, and consisted
chiefly Of standard books.
A feature in Sundays proceedings was
the taking leave by Miss Hart of the chill
dren, directors and..others. This very estimable
lady, who has served a stewardship of sixteen
years at the Home" in the capacity of
teacher, now sewers her connection with this
institution to take charge of Home of her
own. As testimony therefor of their afiec-
ton for her. the children, out Of their own
earnings, presented Miss. Hart with q very
handsome plated butter-bowl, and the di.
rectors. in their own behalf rendered her a
costly silver cake basket
The presentation on the part of the direct
ors was made by Rev. J. X. Gutheim, who
was qaite happy in his remarks. That on the
part OF the children was by Miss Adler, whose
feelings got the upper hand of her. giving
vent in tears, which all the little ones, and
some "big ones, too" helped her out in.
Miss Hart tried to respond, but was s.too full
for utterance."
Everything passed off well, and we realized
the right our Jewish community has in being
proud Of such noble institution as "Tbe
Home, " standing as it does, at the head of all
such institutions in this city. even receiving
the highest encomiums from the Grand Jury
in their reports.

reached wealth by such different avenues
