Columbus Library Association.
A morning of tin* Association will be !
I held in the Library rooms next Wednes
day nigh*. The taste and cultivation of a
people are judged by their support of
suci. enablishmenb*. They can only flour
ish in a redued, c !nested society—one
where an acquaintance with standard lit
erature snd polished manners are regard
ed as the passport of the best circles, and
not the mere accidents of birth and sta
tion. The manager* are determined that
the institution shall not fsil. They have
decided on a new plan, an entire re-or
ganization, by which permanent success
can be obtained, and the means of con
veying nsefnl instruction in a pleasant
mode extended. The co-operation of our
oitiiena ia required. Columbus should
not allow the Library enterprise to be
abandoned.
If members would only pay their dues,
and be piompt in their attendance and
support, ail will go well. The new plan
ia one that will be approved by all; hence
it is desired that the assemblage at the
next meeting should be very large. Let
a library be established on a firm footing,
and it will ever be a source of pride to
Columbus. The city must not lose every
thing that will do her honor.
Cheap Railroad Faro,
It is customary to brag about the cheap-
ties* of travel in ths Northern States, but
none surpass the Central Railroad Com
pany in onoouraging travel. By their re
turn ticket system passenger rates are two
oents a mile, for long or short distanoes.
Where there ia any competition, the fare
ia still lower. Thus a round trip tioket
to Atlanta can be bought at the Columbus
depot for £7.35. The distance ia 406
miles; so the rate is about a cent and a
half a mile. This enoouragement by the
Central is greatly inducing travel. Sev
eral oars on the Maoon and Western Rail
road were crowded Friday and that night
conductor Jeffers brought a full load from
Macon.
In freights, too, the Central is giving
Columbus from the North the same rate
us Montgomery. At the latter place there
is heavy railroad competition ; at Colum
bus there is none. We are allowed much
lower rates than Union Springs, where the
Central meets a competing route. Have
praise for a company that seta so liberally,
when, if it obese, it could extort to any
amount.
Counted Stack •/ Cotton,
The stook of cotton counted iu Colum
bus ou the afternoon of August 31st,
showod 1,036 bales of ootton in the ware
houses, oh follows; Planters’ 418, Alston
143, Lowell 07, Alabama 120, Fontaine
240.
Acoording to the table given in our
commercial column, it will be noted that
the net receipts of the season of 1873-74
61,000 bales, against 58,108 the pre
vious year, showing a gain of 2,001. The
factory takings, including those for the
Tallasaee (Alabama) Mills bought here,
aro 8,052 bales, against 7,428 the previous
year, showing a gain of 1,524.
This report would have been made on
September 1st, but the commercial oditor
waa compelled to be absent from the city
and did not return until yesterday. The
tabular reports in the oolnmn will be in*
terosting for reference, both to cotton
men and all engaged in Loftiness.
Served Him Right.
The report ia current that a white per
son not long since endeavored to suicide
by swallowing cold laudanum because his
love was not returned. The la»t report is
that he made dishonorable proposals to
the love of his heart. Not being made of
the weak and timid sort, that will brook
an insult in silence, she availed herself of
a favorable opportunity, and holding,
gave him a sound beating with a stick
If the report be true, a deserved lesson—
one that will not soon be forgotteu—waa
taught, with the moat foroible of impres
sions.

Capt. Brookway, Mr. Elbert Welle, and
Cupt. Hoohatrasaer leave for the Warm

Craps an tho Lowar River.
A leading and very reliable planter in
Decatur county, Georgia, thii9 writes to
one of our largest warehouse firms: “The
caterpillar has destroyed all young cotton
ou tho river in this section. Upland oot
ton was ruined by the August drought,
and is now doing nothing.'
No planter is as joyous as he was a
montji ago. The August drought, cater-
pilla^ and boll worm have effeo>.ed great
damage; yet from all we hear, and if no
greater disaster befall the orop, we may
expect at Columbus as much ootton, if
not more, than we rooeived last season.
Robbery.
The residenoe of Mr. R. C. Floyd was
robbed on Thnrsday night of a lot of
werring apparel of himself and wife, a
aaok of flour and provisions generally.
The loss falls heavily on a working man.
The thieving waa accomplished through a
window. Last week the same gentleman
lost a rocking ohair from hia front poroh,
while the family waa at supper. Idlers
are ao numerous in Colombna that persons
cannot too cloaely watch their premises
and property.

Sin is Often the Result
Of physical ill-health and feeble stom

process of digestion continues. To be
dyspeptic is to be miserable ; dyspepsia
is the foundation of fevers aud till the
