Few Can't Vote Vnleee You Pag Poll Tarn.
Iu Columbus, in order to vote at mu
nicipal elections, all must pay a tax of two
dollars in Hen of street duty. The active
members of Are and military companies
are exempt, as well as those over 60 years
of age. Real estate owners have this
requisite included in the returns required
when paying the assessment on their
property. In looking over the registered
list, we And that in Fire Company No. 1,
40 names are returned as exempt from
this tax; 18 in No. 6; 211 in Hook and
Ladder; 33 in No. 6; 41 in the Columbus
Guards; 23 in the City Light Guards, and
05 who are over 60 years of ago.
Of colored people there are 54 exempts
in Fire Company No. 2, and 55 who are
over 60 years of age.
Excluding these, real estate owners,
and those who have paid, there are 376
whites and 2183 blacks who have yet to pay
each two dollais to entitle them to a vote
i Saturday.
Only 20 negroes, not real estate owuers,
have paid this tax.
To simplify matters and avoid great
trouble to ci<y officers, all who cau do so
should pay their tax to-day. To-morrow
the officers may be very crowded, and
many loose their chances for a ballot.
The total registration is 1,2176—864
whites and 512 blacks.

Bridges 4n Muscogee County.
On the main water courses our county
is compelled to keep up sixteen bridges.
Their eost was about $20,000. Owing to
heretofore defective construction and
high winds and floods, they have been
rebuilt mainly three times since the war,
thus costing $60,000. The onrs last con
structed have been erected with great
care, every timber being inspected, and
yet they have not cost so much as those
before put up. Those we now have are
paid for, and promise to last for years.
Better still, the oounty, by the careful and
prudent aotion of the Commissioners, is
out of debt, and a bridge fund is beiug
accumulated, ao that iron structures can
be secured at cash prices to replace the
preaent ones in coses of aooident. Three
of the bridges we have named are on the
line with other counties, but Muioogee
has had to foot the large majority of the
bills.
ELEGANT CUSTOM CLOTHING

Spinks* Brivato Presidential Message.
Mr. Editor: —The President having
learned that his children here were in-
clioed to indulge in some rather rough
sports, and feaiing some injury or un
pleasantness might result therefrom, has,
by a special ana confidential communica
tion to me, bis vary private secretary, of
fered the following paternal suggestions,
to which he earnestly hope* they will give
filial heed and implicit obedience :
1. Ill at they should remember they are
brethren, and ‘‘how pleasant it is to see
brethren dwell together in unity,” end
that they must not fall out about their
Christmas presents and oall each other
hard names.
2. That they avoid rough sports cal
culated to wound eaob other’s feelings,
and that if any one has thought'essly
.wounded a brother, either iu feelings or
in person, that he immediately seek recon
ciliation, kiss and make friends.
3. That under no circumstances would
he advise them to play with those dan
gerous pyrotechnic toys, which caused so
many sad results in a con test which be
witnessed a few years since, in a trial of
skill between the Blues and the Grays.
Aa an additional procaution, he would
affectionately suggest that these things
be kept locked up in your little trunks at
home.
4. That you must not quarrel about who
shall ride “old Robin.” That the one
who runs the fastest must ride first.
5. That at the approaching tournament
each one be free to choose his leader;
and that there be no throwing “heads and
tails” in making «a selection. And that
the Captain haviug the fewest men, will
have the more honor, should ho win the
prize.
That in the foot race, he wonld
kindly suggest, the one ooming out ahead
should be declared the winner.
7. That aa members of the same great
family, be hopes everything will bo
conducted in great kindness, with decency
and in good order. And that you will
truly set good examples to his children
in the cities of Girard, Browneville,
Cooleyville, Wsmackville, Ac.
8. That you may appreciate his fatherly
interest in your welfare, and do—nothing
to wound his tender compassion, or that
would reflect injuriously—on your good
name, I am instructed to read the follow
ing loving admonition, written especi
ally for thisoocason—please attend : “Let
us have peace,” all of which is respect
fully submitted with the cordial endorse
ment of the writer.
I am instructed to add that the Presi
dent wonld have sent some of the old
family servants to superintend your sports
had they not all been engaged in convey
ing his Christmas salutations to his chil
dren tn Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas,
and to his grandchildren—the Reds in
the West.

Editor Enquirer:—Thst the citizens
may fully understand the Ordinance as
adopted February 5th, 1878, I present it
as taken from records of Council the fol
lowing :
For burying white adults $5 00
“ “ “ children 8 00
44 44 co’ored adults 8 00
“ “ “ children 2 00
The overcharges which have been pre
ferred against Sextou Lynah have taken
place since the passage of the above
ordinance, without any agreement with
the parties overcharged as to what the
contract might be. He assumed to <
charge those parties upon his own ac
count, when it would have been sn easy
matter for him to have contracted with
the parties, had he ao desired. Mr.
Lynah should not allow common custom
to overrule his duties to others, who are
not posted as to whAt he terms “common
custom.” The ordinance passed by Coun-
oil does not authorize any Sexton to over
charge its prescribed rates without first
making a contract therefor.
It was et the request of some friends,
and that also of Sexton Lynah, I w
duced to bring this matter beforo Council,
and not, as he oharges, that I have stirred
this matter to do him personal injury.
With this explanation, which I trust
will be satisfactory to Mr. Lynah and the
public, I drop the matter.
Respeot fully,

Death of an Excellent Colored Man
The colored employee of Messrs. Pea

morning. He had long been ill. He was
a good scribe and had considerable know!,
edge of arithmetic and grammar. He
was uoted for his quiet, respectful and
courteous manners, find many whites will
read a notice of his death with a souse of
psin. His name was Charlie Hendrix,
aged 21 years. He had been in the law
office of Messrs P. A B. some five years,
employed in copying documents and other
papers. He had, however, no idea of be
coming a lawyer. His entire infiuence
was for good. For some time he had
boon Superintendent of Asbury (colored)

when such colored young men are re

The Female Orphan Asylum.
From a document sent to our office
yesterday, we learn that, this institution
was opened for the reception of destitute
children on the 7th of April, *1845. In
1816, Mis-i Rankin was matron. Thera
were six pupils, and the espensee of the
year were $316.72. In 1847 and 1848,
Mrs. Warren was matron, with eight and
thirteen inmates; and expenses for the
first year were $165.09.
In 1840, Mrs. Boy den was matron, with
seventeen inmates ; and in 1840 and 1850,
Mrs. Wharton, with eighteen children.
From 1851 to 1857 Mrs. Smith was
Matron, and again in 1858 and 1850. The
children under her oharge varied in nam
ber from 17 to 22 each year, and the ex
penses from $370 to $993.
On December 15th, 1852, the asylum was
destroyed by fire, and was rebuilt in 1854.
In 1855 only eighty-five cents were in the
treasury, though 21 children were being
cared for. In 1856 Mr. Lyman Powers
left a legacy of $10,000 to the institution,
which money was carefully invested aud
survived the wreck of the war.
In 1857 Mrs. Warren became matron,
Miss Steiner in 1860 and 1861, and Mrs.
Ashurst from 1862 to 1865. During these
years the average number of children was
seventeen and the average, expenses about
$1,200.
In 1865 the Asylum was rented for sev
eral years to several ladias aud was not
revived until 1860.
From that year to this it has sheltered
and oared for thirty-two children, and now
has eleven under its hospitable roof. Of
these thirty-two, only one has died.
Quite a number have been adopted.
Daring the many years the asylum has
existed, the salary of the matron has been
$201), with the exception of two years,
when it was $250 and $265 respectively.
From 1846 to 1865 the asylum has been
the home of 351 orphan girls, the average
being about eighteen each year.
The institution owns a neat brick build
ing, ample grounds, and is governed by a
Board of Trustees composed of the first
ladies in the city.
Has Columbus Warehoused Half Her
Cotton?
In 1868-9 Columbus warehoused 48,500
bales, of whioh 23,017 sere received by
December 4th. In 1860-70 the season’s
receipts were 67,274, and 37,732 were
warehoused by Deoember 4tb. In 1870-1
season's receipts 75,007; by December 4th
37,654. In 1671-2 season 40,650; by De
cember 4th 20,435. Iu 1872-3 season 58,*
108; by December 4th 29,061. Last year,
1873-4, receipts were 61,090; by Decem
ber 5th 25,557 bales had been received,
and on December 12th 35,531—just about
half the season's warehousing. Thus by
examination wo find that half onr ootton
generally has come in by December 5th.
1868 and ’0 ore laat year exceptions. In
the first considerably over half came in;
in the laat half waa not warehoused until
December 12th. We will get between
60,000 and 70,000 bales by either rale,and
if we follow last year will receive 73,000.
Schenek'e Mandrake Fills
Will be found to possess those qualities neces
sary to tLe total eradication of all bilious at-
Isons, prompt to start the secretions of the
liver, and sire a healthy tone to the entire
syatem. Indeed, It if no ordinary discovery in
medical science to have Invented a remedy for
these stubborn complaints, which develop sll
the results produced by a heretofore free use
of calomel, a mineral justly dreaded by man
kind, and acknowledged to be destructive In
tUe extreme to the human system. That the
properties of certain vegetables comprise all
the virtues of ealomel without Its injurious
tendencies, Is now an admitted fact, rendered
indisputable by scientific researches; and
those who use the Mandrake Pills will be folly
sati-fied that the best medicines are those pro
vide! by nature In the common herbs and roots
of the fields.
These pills open the bowels and correct sll
bilious derangements without salivation or
any of the Injurious effects of calomel or other
poisons. Tho secretion or bile Is promoted by
those pills, as will be seen by the altered oolor
of the stools, and disappearing o! the sallow
eomi lexion and cleansing of the tongue.
Ample directions for use accompany each
box of pills.
