It ie a rare thing that you oan see ■ young man who ii aotnally prospering through hie own exertions. Very few of thoee are making more than e living, and thia is notioeable in older ones, who have some capital We, at one timo of life, can quite remem ber when a man of energy ooald begin and ascend with ease the ladder of pros- perity, bat it is not so now. Henoe, we conclude that there is something radically wrong in the oonntry and it mast be, as was snggested to ns t'other day by a man of means, experience and of shrewd ob servation, on aooonnt of onr peasantry,zo to speak—the negro and the laboring oil of white people. These are the backbone of the oonntry, and it is upon those to i grant extent, that men depend,and operate. In proportion as tbeso prosper, In suoh ■ dagroe will eYeryono’a interests be en hanced. There is not a single excep tion that where the peasantry or laboring olsenes are self sustaining and independent in any oonntry or seotion, the people generally are in excellent fi nancial condition. While we apeak of the laboring dosses being remiss in their dnties, yet they may not be totally blame- able, for those of means often tyranize and become nsnrists and thus keep some who wonld rise in monetary snbjngation This country can't be bettered much un til ibis everlasting leach, the negro, npon its flnanoisl system is dispensed with, or bo inede to subsist in another manner. A few of them are industrious and provi dent, bat nearly all think not of the mor row. Still they most live, and it is to the detriment of those who would prosper if they conld. “The world owes everyone a living," and, of oonrse, things mnat be divided, and thns the energotio man must sudor, lint tbe negro is not the only “leech" upon tbo country, for so long as he exists, he is an onoouragement to tbe indolence of many white men who Bit upon fences and in shades and boss, and, at tho end of tbe year, tbe mortgaged orop does not release them from burdensome papers. It oomee to this, however, that the negro appears to be the great drawback to the Sooth, and nntil they begin to look more for theme selves and try by oonstant endeavors and careful management to be independent, we will all have a deed weight to onr neoks. Their population is daily increas ing und their ability to support them is in greater proportion depressing—bnt they must live. Young men, yon should go west and get out of this inextrioable servitude in whioh you are now serving. There is not a great doal aboad for you here, except from small salaries and almost mean sav ings. There ere more here than ere needed and real good business men, we are informed by a gentleman who is post ed, are iu demand in the far off West. RAT K1LLINU. Thera is design in all things, and when deeply studied their utility will be seen in stronger lights. Now, the rat was not mads simply for oats, or to eat tbe farm er’s email grain, or to be the perpetrator* of general devastation in ladies’ larders. When breath was slung into the rat it was then understood and ordained that in the oonrse of time they should afford amusemont to these little dogs with whioh Columbus is infested. Tbe boys now havo it on foot to have a “rat killing.’’ A pit will be dug, and iu it theso oreatures will be placed. Those who have smart terriers will enter them for tbe fray. Beta will be made on whose dog can kill tbe more in a oertain time. Thia, of oonrse, will be exoiting and every body will be anxious to attend, and, consequent ly, admission will be oharged—not consequently either, bnt to defray the expenses of having the rats oanght and for preparing the arena for the infer, nal iiitle gladiators to fight in. Now this will be an opening for thoea who are ont of employment to moke their “jaok." There is millions in it. The rata must be oanght and thie will moke some richer. The gonber sellers of oonrse will go iuto it, bnt this will cense a rise in pindars, for a few will remain in the trade, and, as competition will oeaaa, tho seller of this parched vegetable will make ’corner." Now this will really be ■ blessing to the city, in that the rata will be destroyed and muoh fun will be expe rienced at the amphitheatre when the rat and the dog meet npon the “sands.” It will, however, affect commerce to a great extent. There is the bottle retail trade whioh is bound to sink into insignifloanoe. All the dealors will go to eatohing rate, and bottles will be in greet demand. But pestilence or tronblos of eomo kind are ears to follow prosperity. These dead rats must be utilized. Bat pie* and bosh will, as a natural oonsequence, be the popular disb. They will have (o be eaten, yet without the kuowledge or consent of the hoarder. Landladies oan’t help bnt prosper, and a mau, after the rat destruc tion crisis iB over, will feel as though he had nine Uvcb, as his system will have been snpportod upon cat food. Go ahead, boys, and oatok yonr rata and let's have tbe fun. It ii a rare and enjoyable novelty and will “take.” llometteia Granted. Yesterday before Judge Brooke tbe ease of Dr. J. E. Blonnt applying for home stead, came. It woe warmly contested by bis oredjtors, bnt the protection was granted him. The contest woe over abont $1,000 in money, whioh he woe paid on a loss by fire not long einee. As tbe realty of Dr. Blonnt does not amonnt to the sum allowed by law for a homestead Judge Brooks deoided that the $1,000 be included therein, Funeral o/ Mrs. John R.Dttcstm.

An old gentleman named Bullook from Meriwether, visited Columbus yesterday for tbe first time in twenty years. He said that it was his desire to see tbe oity onoe more before his death. Though be is gray with age ba is likely to live to see oar oity many limes more, if he will only toko the trouble to ootne, for his move ments were sprightly. Dr. Hellene*’* Huendurd Remedies. The standard remedies for all diseases of the lungs are Bohenok'sPdlm inio Syr up, Sohinok's Sea Weed Tonic, and Nchenok's Mandrake Pills, and if taken before tbe lungs are destroyed, a speedy ’enre is effooted. To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Sehenok, of Pbilideiphis, owes his unri valed suooess in the treatment of pulmo nary diseases. The Palmonio Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the longs; nature throws it off by an easy expectoration, for wbon the phlegm or matter is ripe a slight oongh will throw it off, the patient bos rest and the Inngi begin to heal. To enable the Pnlmonic Syrnp to do this, Schenok's Mandrake Pilla and Sohenok’a Sea Weed Tonio moat bs freely need to oleanse the stomach and liver. Sohenok's Mandrake Pills aot on the liver, removing all obstructions, relax the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and tbe liver is soon relieved. Sobenok'a Sea Wood Tonie is a gentle stimulant and alterative; the alkali of whioh it is composed mixes with the food and prevents souring. It assists the di K tion by toning np the etomaoh to a lthy condition, so that the food and the PnlmonieSyrap will makegood blood; then the Inngs heal, and the patient will ■nrely gel well if oore ie taken to prevent fresh sold. All who wish’ to oooenlt Dr. Sohenek, either personally or by latter, oan do so at hii principal ottos, earner of Sixth and Anh Sts., Philadelphia, every Monday. Sohenok's medicines are sold by all drnggists throughout tho oonntry. nthl eodkm MARCH. Tho month oum* into-day. It wenth# first month in the early Homan calendar and also marked tha beginning of the year among some of th* Latin Christian nations till the eighteenth oentnry. ’ The English legal year began March 26th nntil the obange of style in 1752. There ie sn old English and Scottish proverb; “Maroh borrows three days of April and they are ill.” The first, It ill all baa wind and want, Tha next, It shall be maw and alaat; Tha third. It shall b* its a fraata 8 all gar the bird! ittok to th* trass. It ia disputed whether those “borrow ing days” were tha last three in Maroh or the first three ia April. Dr. Jamieson explains that when they were stormy, Maroh woe said to borrow them from April thet he might extend his power 80 mnoh longer. Spring Has Cease. The glad spring has com* with its smile* and tears. It opens pleasantly. The trees are yielding to the balmy in. finance, end responding to the movement of the new-born year, are “edging tbe bads" with green. Many peooh and plam trees are fragrant with opened blooms. All nature rejoioes in the freshness and gladness of the time. Farmers ora ex tremely bnsy. In some of the lower nonnties corn is reported os planted and noma above tbe ground. All in th* ooan- try is a scene of busy preparation. Woe It not Thomson who sang— Come g«ntle Spring I athsrtst mildness ooms I Marriedi Last night, in this oity,at tbs reeidenoe of the bride’s father, Mr. James Konkin, Mr. Edmund Bradley was married to Mias Agnes Kankin by Bev. Dr. Joseph Key. Tbe ceremony was baantifol and solemn and all around was still,as tbeir lives were joined in sweet destiny. There ware no attendants. “The kingdom of heaven is like onto a oertain king whioh made n marriage for his son,” so why not liken it unto the soenea of joy and happiness whioh attained last night, with all dne raveranoe ? We think it a very appropri ate figure with paraphrae* to anit the oc casion. The wedding feast was aa ele gant and bonntifnl as the words can ex press. May ell of their wishes be realised. Personal. Yesterday noon Dr. E. F. Col- zey, who is very ill, suffered a sad den relapse, whioh osaeed hie at tendants to almost despair of his life. Remedies were promptly applied, and at this writing, midnight, wa are informed he is resting. This improved oondition will be weloome intelligence to many friends. We are also pleased to learn that the lung of Jndge Fern M. Wood, of Opelika, is yielding to treatment and that be was well enough last afternoon to lit np in bed and be shaved. Mr. J. C. Cowan, proprietor and editor of the Bullook Guide, and Mr. J. F. Dawson, of Union Springs, Ala., ore in the oity. One of the reigning belloa of th* oity leaves to-day for Middle Georgia.

Iam all fixed with a xpike,” said a reverend-looking gentleman to a dapper-looking friend yesterday, “areyon ready ?" “I failed,” replied the friend, “by Jim- bo! yon wouldn’t take advantage of me, would yon?

We beard occasional broken sentences such as “ship and draw,” “hot pnnob,” “Government money,” bnt we oonld not make ont tha broken santenoaa—what did it mean?
