LENGTHY PIECES OF MARBLE.

The Renesaw Marble Company, of
this place, has the contract for all the
marble work in the new terminal depot
at Atlanta. Last week this company
shipped to Atlanta thirteen pieces of
white Cherokee marble, each piece
being nineteen feet long, two feet seven
inches wide at bottom, and two feet
five inches wide at top, and one and
half inches thick They are the pill
asters in the main waiting. room of the
new terminal station. 1t took a special
train, an engine and one Hatscar. to
transport these pieces, owing to their
great length, as the jar attendant a
long train of box cars would result in
their breakage. They had to be care
fully handled and set up on their edges
on the car, to lay them fiat would
crack them. When they were taken
OF the car in Atlanta, they were car

was completed in transportation with

their places in the depot last week.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

Last week in our article, we stated
that Rev. Press Butler, colored,
was the only one present at the
dedication of the new church, who was
at the dedication of the old church
fifty years ago. Since then, we have
learned that Col. J. w. Robertson was
present at the dedication of the old
and the new church and was a member
of the Building Committee when the
churc.l was first constructed. Mr.. J..
w. Henderson, of this city, built the
gallery, which was the only work Of the
interior left for the new church edifice.
DIR. Petree was the pastor ofithe church
when the building was dedicated in
June 1854.
After the war Col. Robertson and DR.
E M Allen, trustees of the church, had
presented them an $500 note against
the church. Maj Campbell Wallace,
who was superintendent of the w. & A.
R r. interested some northern manu-
facturers OF engines, and they gave the
| church an organ, carpet and bell The
proposition was made to the church to
pay off the debt and these would be
secured free. The members promptly
subscribed the amount, the debt was
paid, and the beautiful organ now in
use and the present bell are tire ones

HE BRANDS HIM A LIAR.

Hon, Newton A. Morris, of Marietta
former speaker of the house of repre-.
sentatives, who has been engaged in a
controversy with Hon. W. w. Osborne
of Savannah, over the charges made by
Mr.. Osborne that the corporations con.
tributed largely to his election as
speaker Of the house, branded Mr.. Os-
borne, in an open letter last Wednes
day as "a malicious and common liar. ,,
Mr.. Morris recites that Mr.. Osborne
admits that he is bold, bad man.,
and that he is unworthy of belief. +"
He charges further that Mr.. Osborne
has not produced one scintilla of proof
to sustain his charges, and that he
(Morris) therefore dismisses the matter
by saying: Consequently the only
alternative left me is tn denounce your
assertion as wilful and deliberate lie
and brand you as a malicious and COM
mon liar"
Mr., Osborne swallows the lie, and in
reply says Mr. Morris is a typical
blackguard." So endeth the morning
lesson.
