-ATTEMTIOW Montgomery True lllue. This Week EXTRAORDINARY funeral Nolle. The friends and acquaintances of Mrs. Eliza Westcott, and of AV. It.

West-cott and family," are respectfully in People Gate1 In the Matter of the Petition of Or Rendered. In the matter of the petition of Dr. J. S. AVeatherly for a mandamus to compel his restoration to membership in the Medical Society of Montgomery, to which the counsel for tho Society interposed a demurref, Judge Arring-ton, we understand, made the following decision: "The Court is of the opinion, that a membership in the Medical or Surgical Society of Montgomery county is a valuable right which the law -will protect, and it appearing that the constitution of said society has conferred no authority on any member, or created any tribunal to ascertain or declare the disfranchisement of a member for nonpayment of dues, the Court holds that the society itself can alone exercise the power upon notice to the member charged with such non-payment.

"The relator admits such non-payment of his dues, but this Court will not in advance upon his excuse or assume that the society would not, upon a hearing, consent to revoke the forfeiture. Tho demurrer is therefore overruled, and defendant has leave to answer." It is understood the society will interpose an answer to the petition, and that the causo will be heard to-day on its merits. The Trade, IndUHtrles, Ac. of Montgomery. Maj.

P. II. Moore, representing Mr. John E. Lund, of Chicago, is in the city.

Mr. Land is the editor and publisher of the trade, commerce, industries, and facilities of several Southern cities, and his representative, Maj. Moore, is in Montgomery with the object of procuring statistics of the facilities and advantages offered by the city for manufacturing and other industries, as well as her trade and commerce. He wishes to secure the co-operation of the board of trade, and it is understood that body will give him the encouragement and assistance required. It is certain that a properly compiled review of the trade of Montgomery, as well as the advantages offered for investment in industrial enterprises, would be of immense benefit to this city.

The information will be published in book form and disseminated where it will do the most good. The publisher of these'- statistics proposes to compensate himself by getting the board of trade and citizens to take a certain number of copies of the publication. This is a good movement and it is hoped will receive the encouragement it deserves, as it will present all the advantages and facilities offered by our city in a condensed and available form for distribution.

This was the only jury trial yesterday.

Court adjourned until 10 o'clock this morning. Its Importance. Tho demand for corn arid the shortness of the oat crop this year, shows the importance of the latter crop to farmers. It is true that the winter planting was cut short by the cold weather and freezes, but had a larger area been planted in the winter and spring the supply would now be greater. Oats are a splendid summer feed for stock and make a line substitute or corn, (specially when the crop of the latter is as short as it is this year.

It is hoped the farmers will take care in future to secure a good crop of oats, if possible. FRANCIS.COBBS&GO 27 29 JMarket t.

Kllaa Wextcott. II l-N. Mrs. Eliza Westcott died at her resi dence yesterday, at what was formerly known as the Cobb's Orphan Home. Mrs.

Westcott was one of the oldest residents of this city. She, with her family, removed here from South Carolina in 1819, and resided here continuously to" the day of her death. Hart she survived to ner.t December Jjer age would have been eighty-three years. She has been often heard to say that when she first arrived here there was not a house where Montgomery now stands; and she stopped at what was then termed Old Town, where Mr. Chappell's place nowis.

Mrs. Westcott had been in ill health for about ayear, and was confined to her bed for two weeks before her death. She was the mother of Mr. William E. Mlialmoth Feast of Week.

At the Temple the services will be held to-night at 8 o'clock and to-morrow morning at 9:30 o'clock. The: Rabbi, Rev. 8.

Hecht, will conduct the sen-ices, preach a sermon to-night and confer the rite of confirmation to-morrow morning, on five candidates, who passed a satisfactory examination on Sabbath last, -t-, Trade with Kansas City.A New Line for Montgomery, Kansas 'with its population of 95,000, is now regarded as the great trade center of the Northwest. It draws its immense grain supplies rom the fertile grain region of Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, a portion of Illinois, chiefly. It is noted for its immense pork packeries, three of which are among the largest in the United States; and in conjunction with these are its great slaughter houses, its flour mills and grain elevators. r- This mart of tho grain growing district of the Northwest is now brought in close proximity to Montgomery by the opening of a fast freight line, composed of the Kansas City, Fort Scott and Springfield Memphis Railroad from Kansas City to Memphis-the Memphis "and Charleston, from Memphis to Decatur, arid the Louisville and Nashville, from Decatur to Montgomery and Mobile. This fast freight line is known as the Memphis Short Line, and is delivering freights from Kansas City to Montgomery in the space of four days, when it formerly required a week and ten days or more.

The freight is transported in through cars, and it is a most wonderful improvement on the time formerly made by the old routes, and cannot fail to make a very large increase in the interchange of products between that rich section and this. Kansas City and the country tributary to it will supply iis with her meats, grain and flour, while the people of this section will find there a ready and most desirable market for our fruits, melons, vegetables and other products. Maj. John Wyly, agent of the East Tennessee system, has with his characteristic interest, been on an extended trip to Kansas City and section adjacent, and is giving this line his special With his usual energy in his railroad undertakings, he will certainly make the scheme a success. It is entirely practicable, and will open a desirable trade between the two sections.

Kansas Beef for Montgomery. The fast freight line known as the Memphis Short Line, referred to in another article of this issue, opens up another very desirable traffic for Montgomery. The extensive firms that have slaughter houses in Kansas City, have established what are known as "cold houses" in different cities for the purpose of introducing the splendid beef of the Northwest in those markets, with agents to look after the sales. One of the largest firms has proposed to establish one of these houses in Montgomery with an agent to give it proper attention. The beef is of.

the most superior quality, and must be seen and eaten to be appreciated. It is shipped in refrigerator cars, and on reaching its destination is placed in the cold house, where it will keep perfectly fresh until it is sold out from day to day. This would be a good thing for some of our enterprising butchers, and there is no doubt that fine beef will find a ready sale. Owing to the short time in which it could be transported by the refrigerator cars, a constant supply could be kept in this market and always perfectly fresh. The introduction of this beef in Montgomery may be regarded as a certainty, judging by the report of Maj.

J. M. AVyly who thoroughly informed him self during his late visit to Kansas City. Hev. Mr.

The Mafestand Best Internal Remedy It is safe to take Brandreths Pills at any time, but to get the best results they be taken on an empty stomach, going to bed. It is well on the night you take them to eat little or no supper. As no two people are affected precisely the same by alike quantity of the same medicine, it is di flicult to determine the it is something hich must be left to the discretion of the pa tients. We will say, though, the average dose for an adult is from four to ten, according to t' For Constipation or Dyspepsia, one or two taken every night will, in a short time, perform an absolute cure.

It is well to take a purgative at least ouceor twice a month as preventive of disease, and as these Pills are entirely vegetable, and are made with the greatest care, we know them to be tho safest and most effective purgative ever introduced to the public. They have been sold in this country for over fifty years, and have in that time attained an unprecedented popularity. Round Trip Tickets.
