THE CITY.
Our City—lts Prospects.
That Columbus has not properly improved her
opportunities in times past, is a proposition we will
not controvert. That she has been the victim of
apathy from misguided counsels upon several oc
casions, when prompt, contrary action would
have resulted advantageously to her commercial
and other interests, is, indeed, a mortifying reflec
tion. Had she displayed a becoming energy and
diligence in the construction of the Muscogee
and Opelika Railroads, when those enterprises
were first mooted, it is probable that she would
now be reaping the profits of a large trade which
seeks a market in Augista and Charleston over
the road above her. Another, and even greater
error was committed, about two years ago, when
she ret used or Beglected to make the connection
between the Muscogee and the Mobile and Girard
Roads. The direct consequence of this refusal is
the extension of the South-Western road t> Eu
faula and Fort Games. For this want of foresight
she can never atone. She is not and never can
be what she might have been. But though thus
crippled in her resources aud confined in her
trade, there is no reason for despondency. She
still possesses means and capabilities for a won
derful expansion and her future is big with the
promise of a large material prosperity.
Her position renders her the natural and eligi
ble market for a large scope of territory embrac
ing South-Eastern Alabama, and a considerable
portion of Western Georgia. Already she has
two means of communication with the Gulf ports;
a third, and the most important—the Mobile and
Girard road—is in process of rapid construction.
These, together with her communication with
Northern Georgia and Tennessee by the Opelika
road, should and will make Columbus.the best gro
cery market in the State. A9 auxiliary to this end,
she can boast of a class of traders who are pro
verbial for their industry, honesty and liberality.
The fair-dealing and integrity of her merchants
are above reproach, and would reflect honor and
confer benefits upon any cammunity. A succes
sion of short crops for several years throughout
the country which sends its produce to this market
and draws its supplies hence, has, to some extent,
diminished our trade ; but this cause has operated
a similar result everywhere, and cannot be re
garded as an unfavorable indicaiion. We may
even anticipate its effect upon the business of the
approaching winter, (tor the harvest will in no
section redeem the promise of the spring;; but we
are constantly penetrating farther into the coun
try upon which we are mainly to rely for our trade,
and this enlargement of area will repair, in some
degree, the frugality of the seasons. When the
road, which is now being energetically carried in
the direction of Mobile, shall reach a point one
hundred miles distant Irom this city, it is not ex-,
travagant to say that 150,000 bales of cotton, from
all sections, will be thrown, in one season, into j
our market. Then, and at no distant day, will
arrive the good time which we promise to the j
merchants, grocers, mechanics and property hol
ders of Columbus.
The River Low-
Three Steamers are at the wharf, waiting for a
revival of business and a rise in the river to pro
ceed to Apalachicola. The river is exceedingly
low and has the appearance of a small stream, as
it meanders through the rocks at the fails, above
the lower bridge Fishermen,however, still cling
to its banks and realize a pittance as the result ot
t heir labors.
Pleasant Weather.
The weather has been remarkably pleasant the
last week—neither too hot nor too cold, but very
much like the Indian summer at the North. The
nights especially are delightful and covering com
fortable. Our friends at the Springs can have no
advantage of ns in this respect.
Streets.
From a thorough inspection of the streets ot our
City, we are convinced that our Marshall, James
M. Hughes, and his Deputy, H. P Robinson,hane
been vigilant and watchful in the discharge of
their duty, There are some few places however
which have escaped their observation, which will
be attended to in due season. The cleanliness of
our City will compare favorably with that of any
other in the Southern States. A row of trees in
the centre of some of our wide streets would great
ly add to their beauty- Such as are planted in
Canal Street, New Orleans.
**
Revival in Girard.
The revival which has been in progress in Gi- |
rard for the last six weeks in the Methodist Church,
has been discontinued for the present. # We are
informed by the Minister in charge, Rev. Mr. Aus
tin, that sixty persons have united themselves with
the church during the meeting, on probation, aod
eight by letter- Such a spiritual awakening of
souls in this little town is unprecedented m its past
history-

FREEDOM FROM FEVER MD AGUE
TRIUMPHANT SUCCESS:
THE
GRENADA ELIXIR,
OP.
South American Antidote for Malaria!
Is a sure Cure and 4 +rfect Route to Ague and j
Fever, Chill and fever, Dumb Ague, and
all Bilious Auctions !
IT has been thoroughly tested in thousands of i
cases, some of years’ standing, where Quinine
and all the most popular remedies of the day had
failed, but the Elixir has met with the most trium
phant success; never failed to cure the most obsti -
nate cases. The unauimous testimony of all who
have used or witnessed its operations, declare it to
bo the most extraordinary medicine ever discov
ered for the quick and permanent cure of Fever
and Ague. It operates as a gentle Tonic and
stimulant, gradually but surely; eradicates every
vestige of disease, and restores the system to health
and vigor. It imparts new vitality to the blood,
and will soon induce the glow of health to return
to the pale and swarthy complexion,
The advantage of this medicine therefore is, that
a cure must be radical and complete; not simply |
breaking the Chill,by producing a “new impres- j
sion” upon the nervou system, without reference j
to the operations of the malarious poison, which
is allowed to remain unchanged and renew its |
attacks, immediately after the nervous system
; has ceased to feel the artificial disease—induced
by Quinine and many other preparations.generally
resorted to. The GRENADA ELIXIR acts di
rectly upon the Liver, Stomach, Kineys, Pores
of the Skin, and produces a radical cure.
It contains no ingredient the least injurious to
the system,and can be given'to an inlaut with i
! perfect safety. It is warranted to cure every case j
when taken as directed.
All who need such a medicine, will do well to
try the Grenada Elixir. It is not only the best but
the most economical medicine ever introduced
• for Fever and Ague and is a Southern Remedy.
