RAIL AND CRossTIE.

Il is reported that an eastern syndicate
has forty-five day option on the Tennss-
sse Midland road.
The Nashville and Chattanooga railway
has notified the treasury department that it
will, on June |, pay $500, 900 Of its bonds
Issued at the close of the war to compensate
the government for improvements put on
the road.
W. j. Davis, assistant train dispatcher at
the Central railroad, returned yesterday
with his wife from months stay at their
old home in Galveston, in Central Indiana.
Mr.. Davis says that Indiana has the largest
and finest wheat crop that was ever raised
In the state. The crop is already nearly
nlatured
The Order Of Railway Conductors is at
work arranging grand excursion from
along the Central railroad and the Savan-
nah, Americus and Montgomery railroad to
Tybee on June 10. They are also working
on the day following. The Order of Rail-
way Conductors expect to carry down
several thousand people on each Of their
excursions
The Central railroad has made arrange
ments to carry between 5000 and G, 900 col
ored people to Andersonville to-day from
Macon and along the South western division.
A special train will also be run from Macon
for the accommodation of tho white people
going down. The colored people of South
west Georgia always celebrate Decoration
day by a grand excursion to Anderson.
Maj. j. r. Hanson of Macon will deliver
the address at Andersouville.
The Macon Telegraph saws: The clerks
in the Central railroad Office are notable
for the nice discrimination which they
show in what they drink. The abundant
supply from Tufts springs is not quite good
enough for them at present, and so they
have barrel Of artesian water brought
from Wadley every day, 20 replenish the sir
coolers. They say they object to linked
drinks" and want their drinking water
brought from place where no river water
can get into it.
President VanPraag Of the Mexican Gulf,
Pacific and Puget Sound railroad, is in
Memphis, and in an interview about the
new road says that grading will be begun
at Pensacola within thirty days and proceed
northwesterly as rapidly as present arrange
ments will permit. The road is destined
for Memphis. The distance from Memphis
to Pensacola Is something over 500 miles.
The route has been surveyed from Eutaw,
Ala, to Pensacola. and the engineering
corps will soon begin work from there on to
Memphis. The prospectus of the Mexican
Gulf, Pacific and Puget Sound Railroad
Company has just been issued by Mr.. Van-
Praag, setting forth the commercial advan-
tages to be derived from a direct rail route
between Pensacola and Memphis.

RALzACS MANUSCRIPT.
How His Famous Book Cesar Birot-
teau" Was Written.
From the Pnrfs Rfnnro

From the Parts Figaro.
Balzac's method of working was eccen.
trio. When he had well considered the sub,
ject upon which he proposed to write, be
would cover some thirty or forty pages with
ideas and phrases. These he would send tc
the printer, who returned proofsheets pasted
upon large sheets Of paper. The work was
then corrected On a second read
ing the forty pages grew to one
hundred and 30 on, while on the
psoofsheets new lines would start from
the beginning, middle or end Of a
phrase; and if the margins wereIinsuflcient
other sheets were added, until at last the
work was satisfactorily completed. A speci-
men of Balzac's "proof" has the appearance
of geographical map with its rivers, estua-
ries and lakes, OF perhaps it even more
closely resembles complicated railway
system. in which the lines cross and re-cross
each other in manner that would almost
bewilder Bradshaw.
The most graphic description Of this real
ist at work is to be found in an article in
the Paris Figaro of Dec. Is, 1887, called
''The Misfortunes and Adventures Of Cesar
Brotteau Before His Birth" It appears
that Figaro promised the book for Dec. Is,
and Balzac only began it on Nov. II. The
printing press was prepared. Balzac imme-
diately sent in 300 sheets, scribbled in five
nights of fever. Every one knows
how he writes. 1t was an out
line, a chaos, an apocalypse. q Hindu
poem. The time was short; no one
could mako head or tail of the writing, but
it was transposed as nearly as possible into
familiar signs The author sent back the
first two proofs pasted nto enormous pla~
cards. It was frightful. From each sign,
from each printed word, shot a penstroke,
gliding like sky-rocket and bursting at
the extremity OF luminous fire Of phrases,
epithets, substantives, underlined, crossed,
intermingled, erased aud superposed. Its
appearance was simply dazzling. The Office
was far from gay. The typesetters beat
their breasts, the presses groansd, the proof
readers tore their hair"
The proofs we're sent back seven oon-
secutive times, aud then q few symptoms
OF excellent French appeared. and there
was observed certain connection between
the phrases; but the day-Deo. lJ-was
fast approaching, and it was felt that the
book would never appear, But Balzac and
Figaro kept their word with the public, and
Caesar Birotteeu" saw the light on the
date agreed agreed upon. IL was composed.

Editor Morning Neias: Council can't
afford to make light of the goat question
We are not living in a country village
where stock is allowed to roam at large
Neither are we inclined to go back to the
old time high brick walls. We must en-
courage our citizens to Guild fine houses and
to beautify their grounds, and council must
see that we have laws to protect them, and
have said laws properly enforced. Alder
man Harmon has made noble effort TO
give us pretty streets and squares, but he
has accomplished very little, because people
are permitted to trampie down the grass
and to cross our squares from any point
Weare not disposed to grumble, but when
we visit other cities and see their beautiful
parks and reservations, all covered with
beautiful green grass, and signs stuck up

as il we were not keeping up with the out

THE AUTUMN GIRL.

You may talk of the gushing summer
girl,
With lipplng laugh and an eye OF
blue,
With hair that grows in a close, tight
curl,
And CLEANS like gold as the sun shines
through
Who sports racket and wears buff shoes,
Climbs bills and mountains, and romps
and plays,
Clad in garment that's striped and loose.
And gladdens every one's tender gaze.
But
Her reign will sool cease when the sum-
mer's DER,
When the winds of September the dry
leaves whirl,
And the heat of the summer suns no
more,
'ris then we shall get the autumn girl
With a face of the olives soft warm hue,
A check like the leaf as to red it turns,
An eye that the fire of love shines through,
And heats your heart till it throbs and
burns
With a mouth like the huntsman's curv-
ing bow,
Lips as red as the ripe, ripe cherry,
Pearls for teeth in perfecj row;
As white as the heart of the partridge
berry,
With locks that fall DER her shoulders
white.
And round her full neck like SER
pents cling,
Black as the sky on moonleSs night
And glossy as II ravens wing;
With a form that bends like the wind
blown reed,
And bending sets your BRAIN in whirl.
She is queen of the hearts indeed
Our willowy, warmthlul autumn girl

PRESS AND PULPIT.

Discussing the relations borne to
each other by these great forces,
the Mobile Register very conserva-
lively comments that"closer rela-
tions between the pulpit and the
press would be for The benefit of
both. The pulpit would become
more practical, aud The press would
lose much of that flippancy which
is one of the worst characle lerlstics
of American journalism. II would
also be aided in giving direction 10
those sledge hammer flows Tor
right and justice that the Ameri.
can press knows so we'll how 10
give.
One OF The reverend gentlemen
who had participated in the discus
sion referred 10 was of the opinion
that the most influential of journal
lists are agnosiics. In this opinion
we think he is in error. Many
journalists are Lot what they should
be as regards religious matters,
but most of them have sincere
reverence for true religion, and
also for true and conscientious
Christians. Their views do not al
ways accord with those of the
strictest clergyman, but still
they are ever ready 10 defend NOR
ality and religion from Ire assaults
of the free-liver and free thinker.
Then there are goodly nun ber
Of editors who are true Christians
themselves, and who do all that a
secular journal can do without
over-slepping the boundaries of IFS
legiilmare functions, to advance
the cause of morality and religion.
Such editors 10 a vast amount of
good in the world. They have
larger number of auditors, or rather
readers, than any clergyman can
possibly reach"

A HOME FOR CONFEDERATE SOLDIERS.
North Mississippi Democrat.

North Mississippi Democrat.
Gov. Shands, in his speech before
the eX-confederates last Monday,
made a timely reference to a sub
ject which has never been agitaled
in our State before, but which can.
not help but awaken the interest
of all our people, when IL is brought
out into public discussion: The
establishment of a home for ex-
Confederate soldiers. 1t has now
beer over Il quarter of century
since the last gun was fired, and
the Southern flag surrendered to
Grant al AppomatoX. During this
long period many Scared and
crippled veterans have passed in
their final account and settled all
earthly relations. Yet remain a
number, though ever diminishing,
of gray haired sires, who gallantly
and gIoriously fought for their
country during these dark hours.
These men, some of them, are
now lame, decrepid, incapable of
self-supporl, and live off the chari-
ties of surviving relatives or kind
friends. 1t would be a work OF
gratitude, an evidence of State
pride, and a compliment to the
character Of our people, if We, the
yoanger generation OF sons, would
show al appreciation of their he
roic services by erecting a home
for these battle SCARED veterans.
There are no pensions for the
Southern soldier. He has never
asked for any. He accepted his
home in ruins, his fields desolated.
uncomplainingly, quietly, sadly.
He has recrealed a new country
on the ground where his comrades
were slain and buried, and left il
10 a prosperous posterity. Would
ii no be a small token of regard
and reverence if we would build a
home for these oary.headed faith
ers who remain? Think of il, We
men who go to The Legislature.
Such an act would merit and re-
ceive the applause of coming gem
eratIons OH the soil of Mississippi.
