night, the plan of Mr. Alfred Fucker,
Architect, for the new Masonic TEN
pie and Opera House, at tie corner
of Commerce and Meridian Streets,
was adopted and committees APP
pointed with instructions to proceed
It once to letting contract for the
building. The design in all p1rtic
ulars is one of great beauty and if
faithfully executed we will have the
handsomest lodge building and
Opera House in the State and a
structure that wouId do credit to a
city of fifty thousand Inhabitants.
We hope the committees will lose
no time in the matter of building,for
it is almost absolutely necessary to
have it in readiness for the October
FAIR.

THE Commissioners appointed by
the Board of Supervisors at the March
term, to examine the iron bridge
across the Tombigbee river and have
necessary repairs placed upon it.,
made their report to the Board on
Tuesday. Mr.. Devin, Civil Engi-
neer and expert bridge builder, Of
Atlanta, had been employed, who
last week made a thorough examina-
ton of the structure, and reported
that the centre pier, upon which the
draw-span rests, has inclined to the
northwest to the extent Of about one
and three-quarter inches, throwing
the span little out of plumb, as q
natural consequence; and that all the
iron rods need tightening. The
bridge is in no immediate danger,
and as there will be no more necessi-
ty for opening it to navigation until
next winter, the Commissioners re-
commended a delay until July fol-
bracing and leveling the track fol-
turning. The repairs will be made
by the bridge company, at cost Of
between six and seven hundred dol
lars.

Paupers' Soup.

There is nothing like ''pegging
away" at an abuse, though it appears to
take good deal of pegging before one
can get anything fixed up about it.
More than year ago l called attention
to the disgraceful cruelty shown to the
animals carried form Ireland to Eng
land via Cork and Bristol. That cruelty
still continues. An eyewitness tells me
that on a recent voyage of one of these
boats, a lot of cattle were packed so
tight that they could not turn round.
The passage lasted from A. NJ. one
day to 1OP. NJ. the next. During the
whole of this time, not drop of water
was given the poor beasts. Some food
was, indeed, proffered them by throw
ing hay upon their backs, but none of
it was eaten, for their frantic struggles
to get it simply resulted in its being
crushed down beneath their feet. They
were q miserably thin lot, and some of
them certainly diseased. The reason
given for their poverty stricken condi-
ton and cruel treatment, was that they
were ''only going over to be made into
paupers' soup. "-L0nClOn Tanth.
