THE DAIIT?|PH{ENIX. "Let our tust Censures ^^^^^SISSBiS&?^Sw Attend the True Event." BY J. A. SELBY. COLUMBIA, S. 0., THURSDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 27, 1873. VOL. VIII?NO. 29V Section a A Doctor's Bill.?Jo Texas, the other day, a doctor rode fifty ml lea to attend a patient.. After he had oared the patient, he presented a bill for SCO, and proceeded to complete his prepara? tions for the journey baok to the poit, thinking do mora about the matter, i Aa he was about to mount, the patient's hnsbaud put in an appearance, with his trusty rifle in his hand. "Doctor," said he, "1 reckon we'd better settle this here matter now;" and taking him aside, "You wa'nt agoin off without a settle? ment, was you? I don't want to owe no man nothm'. Here is a ten, whioh I reckon is about the Banar' thing. Now, if you ain't satisfied, jest get yer weepon and oomo. ronnd behind the hill thar, so's the old woman won't bo riled up, and we'll settle it. I dou't want no man to go 'way from my house dissatisfied, 'specially you, Doo." A Pahbot Ankodotb.?The natural history editor of the Lexington Press tells this: "A lady residing in a city not a hundred mileB from Lexington is the possessor of two pets?a monkey and a partot?who are by no means congenial friends; in fact, Mrs. 0. was in the habit of looking up the monkey whenever she left the house, for fear of his beligerent qualities. One evening, alas! she ne? glected to do so, and the monkey coming in found the parrot tife for a fight and a very desperate one ensned. The monkey ruthlessly pulled out every feather of the unfortunate parrot, and Broke no the mantel ornaments, and smashed things generally. When Mrs. O. returned, she found the monkey ohatteriDg on the mantel-pieoe, and out crept the parrot looking deeply; injured, and greeted her with 4We've had a h?1 of a time.' The appropriateness of the remark caused a shout of laughter." ErjFATJiiA.'AnA., March 29, 1870. Messrs. J. H. Zeilin et Co., Macon, Qa.

The United States Supreme Court, in the c?bo of the Nortborn Central Railroad vs. Jackson. (b<jo 7 Wallace, Supreme Court U- S , page 207,) decided that, wbou a Railroad mortgage in a joint one,on proporty lying iu two or tuoio .States, the bunds se? cured then by are not liable to be] taxed by cither of the Slates; and the same principle relieves them from taxation by County, City, or Town. The Charlotte, Columbia and Au? gusta bonds aro secured by n joint mortgage on property lying in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. Second.?Because they aro absolutely safe, being secured by a first mortgage ol only 110,000, and a second mortgage of ouly f?.OUO per mile on the eutiro road from Charlotte to Angusta, and on all tho workshops, biidgts, franchise and equipments of said road. Tnmn ? Because the sale ot the first mort? gage bonds will extinguish the tloating debt of tho ?"ond, and the proceeds ot tho second mortgage bonds will bo exclusively applied to improving the road and adding to its equipments; thus enhancing the vaiue of the property mortgaged. ^Fourth ?because tho bonds are coupon bonds, and tho interest payable in New York, Charlotte, Columbia or Augusta, at the op? tion of tho holder. Thus th -y can be col? lected throuftb any bank without expense. Fiktu.?Tho business of tho Road is rapidly increasing, and tho property and franchise daily becoming moro valuable?the net earn? ings for the last fivo months being over fifty per cent, more than for tbo corresponding months of the precoding year. Sixth ? These Roods aro practically re? deemable in gold, for specie payment will cer? tainly be resumed belore their maturity. In? vestors will, therefore, buy with greenbacks wot th 87 j cents, and receive their pay at par ?thus adding a profit of over thiuty cents on tho dollar on the First Mortgage Hands, and oveii thibtv-seven cents on the Second Mortgage Hands, and in the meantime receiv? ing a high rate of interest. Finally.?As these bonds have a fixed value in Now York, Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta, thoy aro considered good collate? rals, on which money can always be borrowed for tomporary purposes. JOHN B.
