Columbus, Nov. 30, 1874.
Maj. A. It. Calhoun I do net aup-
poee that you ever toped to please every
body with your recent aitieles on the
municipal election. They certainly did
not meet my approval, and I felt very
wrathy nntil I reached the magnanimous
danse offering the free use of yoar col
umns for a fall discussion of men and
measures. I avail myself of your offer,
and desiro to propound the following
qoestion: Is it not true that Col. Mott a
bogs were impounded ; and is it not true
that they were returned to Col. M., with
out charge to him, upon Mayor Mcll-
henoy's order, after incurring the ex
pense of two week's keeping, while other
citizens had to pay tbe regular feet!
Now, this is tbe street talk. Let us hear
the facts. If it cannot be satisfactorily
answered, Mr. Mclthenny’s friends will
have to cease their assumption of so many
virtues for him.
“A Woskino Man.
We called upon Mr. Mcllbenny, who
declined to give us a communication in
answer to “A Working Man,*' but stated,
that Col. Mott's bogs were impounded in
carrying out an ordinance of the city, and
were released by him upon an order
from the owner, and any other citi
zen's hogs would have been released
just as he did Col. Mott's, as tbe
pouod-keeper, Mr. Monday, had been
instructed by him, in writing, to eol
lect pound charges from the owners,
except when the city assumed tbe charges,
which was not the case in this instance,
Other people's hogs were released by him,
end the charges paid by the.oity, because
they were wrongfully taken up. Mr.
Mundey presented hie bill to Mr. Mott,
end Mr. Mott refused to pay it, on the
ground, as he stated in his testimony
before the Court, that “hie bogs were
perished to death, and all of them died,
the last of them in leea than ten days
after being released from the pound; and
when Col. Mott refused to pay, then suit
was brought against the city. Two suc
cessive Councils (the last of which he waa
not a member of) refused to pay Mr
Munday's hill, on the ground that the bill
was not properly chargeable to tbe city,

Yesterday Mayor Cloghorn suspended
Captain John Foran and officer Tom Me-
Eachren from tbe police force owing to
difficulty, and naarly a fight, between the
officers on account of the canvass for the
Mayorelity. We are not thoroughly post-
ed in reference to tbe oontroverey. Now
baa It not came to a pretty pass when po
lico officers cuter iu a contest for men,
when the oity, not individual., pays them
salaries to preserve order. Wo like every
one of our force—we believe the city has
a good body of men—but when they over
step tbs boundary line for which they are
employed by Ihe corporation and enter
tbe lista in canvaming for ueo, they
should resign their position,or be prompt-
ly discharged. It is no pleasure to write
this. Every officer baa tbe right to vote,
aud vote as he pleases. The oity pays
him, however,'to Arrest violatois of tbe
lawA And preserve tbe peace. When be
becomcA au aetivo canvasser be exoitea
people to commit broaches of tbe peaee,
becomes a law breaker bimaelf, and ought
to leavo the force. One class of men
doea not support him, bnt Ihe entire oity
pays the Halary of officers, and the good
order of Columbus only should be
apocted by those who take her money and
promiae to render aervioe. Their dnty is
to the city, and not to individuals. We
are confident wo give the opinion of every
good tax payer, in these remarks. Tbe
policeman's first duty is to Columbus.
The regulations governing tbe force are
plain, but they are daily and nightly be
ing violated. Let not onr officers longer
rest under auoh ebargea.
I respectfully announce myself a candi
date for the Mayoralty.

Let us see for a moment whether thia

ed five cents a mile for travel. As soon
as the Central took oharge this rate waa
reduced to four cents. For many months,
nntil a few days ago, the Central Bailroad
oharged under iis system of return tick
ets about two cents per mile. Of course
we know little of tbe freight ebargea.
This we do know, that the Central road
ohargea less for travel than any corpora
tion in Georgia and Alabama, if not in

Central Bailroad the fairnexs to state this

surprised on Monday morning last, to see
a mammoth four-wheel log cart, with
hanging body, roll into that plaoe, drawn
by twelve oxen, and loaded with fifteen

wagon aa it was being unloaded at the

The cotton came from Mr. W. W. Tate's

One of the Atlanta papers came out
daily a few editions book with a promiae
of a grand cotton paper that was going to
give all the facta and enlighten every one.
The great inane came, and it proved, with
the exception of a abort letter, to be exact
copies from New York Financial Chroni.

really fanny. Every cotton man had read
the information weeks before the Atlanta
paper published it.
Rather Heary Sale.
Mr. Lewis label), of the firm of Bwift,
Murphy ft Co., reports he sold yesterday

dred balsa of ootton at a low valuation
represent some $47,000.
Lookout for a Slew.
This day ia tbe time foretold by the

Ihe believers have prepared holes in

in the prophecies of spirits.

Kentucky will not turn out half the or-
inary yield, and that in Virginia is poor.
Yet all thia is no excuie for the lofty fig-
ures placed on many of the cabbage leaf
